Chapter 210 Don’t trust him anymore?
Xie Jingmo was sent by the emperor to control the flood.
As soon as he arrived in the capital, he went straight to Yun Zhao’s Rihui Palace.
On the road——
“It’s amazing!”
"Royal Concubine Chen is actually pregnant!"
"Really? Or is it fake?"
"How could this be false? The Chen family has been so excited these past few days! I heard they're giving alms in the streets! It's all to accumulate merit for the future little prince!"
"The Chen family is so powerful, this little prince will surely be showered with love and affection for his entire life!"
"That's not the case."
“…”
Xie Jingmo was also surprised after hearing the gossip of the palace maids and eunuchs.
Imperial Noble Concubine Chen is almost forty years old, yet she can still get pregnant?
It's really strange.
However, he did not plan to stay long. After all, it was the emperor's family affair and had nothing to do with him. He had just made up his mind and had no time to tell Yun Zhao when he was sent out by the emperor.
He planned to have a good talk with Yun Zhao.
He didn't mind her antics during this period.
He would also help her investigate the cause of her parents' death. In short, he would go along with her and let her follow him back to the Xie family first. He would make arrangements for everything in the future.
Xie Jingmo thought so. Just as he was about to quicken his pace, a palace maid's voice came over, "You don't know, the Chen family submitted a memorial this morning, saying that they would mention Concubine Yun. Now, the emperor's decree of commendation for Concubine Yun has probably been passed on to Rihui Palace."
"That's right. From now on, Noble Lady Yun will be called Concubine Yun."
Xie Jingmo suddenly stopped, turned around and grabbed a palace maid who was passing by.
The eunuch was startled and trembling, he said, "It was Eunuch Fu Hai who announced the decree, and he has already gone."
After Xie Jingmo finished speaking, he strode towards Rihui Palace.
Before he even arrived, he had already seen Fu Hai returning from Rihui Palace.
Fu Hai looked at Xie Jingmo and bowed, "General, the imperial edict has been read out. Now, Yun Guiren has become Yunpin. This is an important place in the harem. If you really want Yunpin's good, you shouldn't come again."
These words are not something that someone of Fu Hai's status can say.
But he still said it.
Yun Zhao is a good girl and should be treated well.
Xie Jingmo was a straightforward person. He knew that the harem was dark, but it was not as profound as going into it.
After Fu Hai left, Deputy General Gao looked at Xie Jingmo with complicated eyes, "Before, if you wanted to rob her, it was just a small noble, and the emperor would have given her up and given her to you. But now, it involves a concubine of the previous dynasty. General, you should let go."
Deputy General Gao sighed.
Since coming to Beijing from the army, these two people have always missed each other.
Xie Jingmo's face turned pale.
Deputy General Gao sighed, "Fu Hai is right. Now that Imperial Concubine Chen is pregnant, Yun Zhao is in a high position under everyone's scrutiny. Everyone in the harem is watching her. If she makes the slightest mistake, she will fall from her perch, leaving no trace of her body."
Being able to make the women in the harem pregnant is a good thing, but it is also a double-edged sword.
Those who are not pregnant naturally respect Yun Zhao as a treasure.
But those who were pregnant and had already given birth, such as Concubine Yi, regarded Yun Zhao as a thorn in their side.
Xie Jingmo frowned deeply and strode towards Rihui Palace. Deputy General Gao looked at Xie Jingmo's hurried back and sighed deeply.
What a sin!
Imperial Noble Consort Chen was pregnant at the age of forty, and the emperor attached great importance to her pregnancy. The entire Chen family asked the emperor for mercy and let Yun Zhao take care of her during her pregnancy.
When Xie Jingmo was there, Yun Zhao's maid was packing her things, preparing to move to Consort Chen's palace to be taken care of.
Xie Jingmo strode in and the maid didn't stop him.
"Yun Zhao!" Xie Jingmo looked at Yun Zhao with a gloomy look in his eyes. "Do you know how dangerous what you are doing now is?"
Yun Zhao's eyes were indifferent, and he didn't know where this person came from.
She shook off Xie Jingmo's hand and said, "General, please respect yourself."
"Self-respect is bullshit!" Xie Jingmo glared. "Before I left, I told you to calm down and hide your edge. Why didn't you listen?"
Yun Zhao packed the things into the bag, and Xie Jingmo took them out again. Yun Zhao looked at him helplessly.
"General, don't you have anything else to do? I heard that Lin Ruyu and I, Wang Yuanlin, have been getting close recently. Don't you want to go check it out?
Isn't she your sweetheart? If you don't pay attention to her this time, someone else will probably take away your beloved."
Xie Jingmo threw Yun Zhao's things aside and grabbed Yun Zhao's hand fiercely. "You don't listen to a single word I say, right? Why mention Lin Ruyu? I'm telling you, she's not in my heart."
Yun Zhao didn't care who he had in his heart, so she took a step back.
But Xie Jingmo pulled him forward a step.
Yun Zhao frowned and became angry. "Xie Jingmo, this is the harem, where the emperor and his concubines live. You can act as you please, but I can't. Can you please not show up here?"
"Don't talk nonsense to me! I know you have a deal with the Emperor. Three years from now, no, you will come home with me today!"
As he said that, Xie Jingmo pulled Yun Zhao's hand and was about to walk out.
But Yun Zhao pushed him away.
The long sleeves slapped his face, and Xie Jingmo felt like he was slapped in the face.
"Xie Jingmo, I just don't understand. Now that things have come to this, why are you suddenly acting so affectionate? But no matter what, I don't need it anymore. Do you understand?"
Xie Jingmo didn't understand, and he didn't want to understand.
He only knew that he didn't want Yun Zhao to continue rolling around in this deep palace!
"Don't you just want to investigate your parents' deaths? I'll do it for you. It doesn't take three years. Give me six months. I promise you, no matter who the murderer is, I'll find out for you!"
Yun Zhao was about to speak in disdain when he heard Xie Jingmo's rage:
"I said I would explain to you, and I will definitely explain to you. If you find out later that the person behind this is really Concubine Yi, I will kill her for you!"
Yun Zhao said casually, "What if the person behind this is the emperor?"
Xie Jingmo's eyes were fierce as he stared straight at Yun Zhao, "Then I will slay the dragon!"
At this moment, no matter whether Xie Jingmo was sincere or fake, Yun Zhao was still shocked.
She stared at Xie Jingmo blankly, allowing him to suddenly use his strength to hold her in his arms.
"Yun Zhao, can you please trust me just once? I will help you! Only I will help you!"
"No matter who it is, I will definitely explain it to you in the future. Can you please trust me again?"
The words fell.
A flowerpot was broken with a loud crash outside the door.
Xie Jingmo turned his head fiercely and looked out with cold eyes.
Yun Zhao walked out and saw a black cat standing on the ground.
The black cat meowed and ran away as if escaping.
Yun Zhao's eyes were lost in deep thought.
When Xie Jingmo left, he told Yun Zhao a thousand instructions, "You stay put and wait for my news. Got it?"
"I'll definitely check it out for you, okay?"
Yun Zhao stood on the steps and looked at Xie Jingmo who was standing below.
"So, you could check before, but you were just unwilling to do so," Yun Zhao couldn't understand him. "But now you are willing to do so again. Xie Jingmo, tell me what you are thinking, otherwise we can't cooperate."
Xie Jingmo was stunned.
He sadly discovered that Yun Zhao, the Yun Zhao who had followed him for seven years, actually—
Don't trust him anymore?
