Chapter 213 I think you are very important in his heart
The day Xie Jingmo and Mu Chengyan left.
Concubine Yi came to see Yun Zhao.
At that time, Yun Zhao was leisurely drinking tea under the grape trellis.
Concubine Yi sat down unceremoniously, "Now, you are determined to go against me, right?"
Yun Zhao smiled faintly, "Your Majesty, that's too serious. You are the future queen, how dare I go against you?"
Yun Zhao was dressed in plain clothes. Concubine Yi realized belatedly that Yun Zhao had not worn any bright clothes since his parents died. He always wore plain white, as if he was paying tribute, or as if he was reminding himself of something.
"Yun Zhao," Concubine Yi gritted her teeth, "For Chang Heng's sake, how about we just let this matter go?"
"From now on, we will keep out of each other's way!"
Yun Zhao smiled lightly when she heard this. She looked at Concubine Yi's ferocious face and felt a secret pleasure in her heart.
"I don't understand what Concubine Yi said."
Concubine Yi was furious. "Yun Zhao, you have no one to rely on! You insist on going against me, and there will be no good results!"
Yun Zhao chuckled, "My Lady, I'm a jerk, but I want to fight for myself. Whether it has a good outcome or not is not up to you to decide."
Concubine Yi gritted her teeth! "Are you planning to help the people in the harem to seize the position of crown prince from my child?!"
Concubine Yi's eyes were gloomy. "Yun Zhao, don't forget that Lieutenant General Lin is still recovering from his injuries in my Chang family army! If you insist on going against me, do you think Lieutenant General Lin will encounter any accidents along the way?"
Yun Zhao narrowed his eyes and looked straight at Concubine Yi.
After a moment, Yun Zhao laughed, "Your Majesty, are you threatening me with my brother-in-law now?"
Concubine Yi calmed down and said, "You only have your brother-in-law as your relative now, right? If you don't stop, I can't guarantee Lieutenant General Lin's safety."
Yun Zhao looked at Concubine Yi, at her face that seemed determined but actually looked harsh.
Yun Zhao suddenly sat back down and took a sip of tea slowly. "My Lady, I made a vow in my early years."
Concubine Yi looked at Yun Zhao, and saw murderous intent surging in her eyes.
This frightened Concubine Yi and she clenched her fist beside her leg.
But in the next second, Yun Zhao said, "I swear, I will never touch an innocent child in my life."
As soon as these words were spoken, Concubine Yi felt cold all over and her heart trembled violently.
Then, her eyes met Yun Zhao's.
Her bright and charming eyes were filled with murderous intent. "If you dare to touch Lieutenant General Lin, I will kill your two children. If you don't believe me, try it yourself!"
Concubine Yi immediately lost control, "How dare you!"
Yun Zhao laughed, "One Lieutenant General Lin in exchange for your two children is worth it. One day I can comfort my brother-in-law at his grave."
Concubine Yi looked at the faint smile on Yun Zhao's lips. She also wanted to laugh to express her disdain, but she couldn't.
Her expression gradually grew colder, then trembling, and finally, filled with a lot of fear!
"If I were still just an imperial physician, perhaps I wouldn't dare say these words, but I am now a concubine, the Emperor's Yunpin. If Concubine Yi wants me dead, she has to find a suitable excuse.
At the beginning, I was able to let you give birth to these two children in this chaotic harem, and I can also take them away without making a sound. My queen, let's make a promise.
The disaster will not affect my family. If you obey, I will obey. If you can't help it, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless."
During these days in the palace, Yun Zhao understood a truth.
This world will not sympathize with the tears of the weak.
Nor will they reward the good deeds of kind people.
She needs to be very strong and cruel to protect herself and her family.
Concubine Yi really didn't dare to move. She looked at Yun Zhao's nonchalant expression and said in a trembling voice, "This... is the prince! If you dare to touch them, your entire clan will be implicated!"
As soon as these words came out.
Concubine Yi was shocked to discover that Yun Zhao no longer cared about his family.
Her weaknesses have been exhausted through repeated manipulation!
Concubine Yi stood under the grape trellis in summer, feeling cold all over.
Yun Zhao expected Chang Heng to come, but he didn't expect him to come so soon.
In the summer, he was wearing a long gown, his lips were pale, and he was followed by Lieutenant General Lin who was also seriously injured.
Both of them were weak, so Chang Heng spoke first, "Yun Zhao, want to chat?"
Yun Zhao asked someone to settle Deputy General Lin, and then he sat on the corridor with Chang Heng.
Chang Heng smiled, but his face was pale. He opened his mouth and said, "I'm sorry for not protecting your family. I owe you for this."
Yun Zhao looked at the clouds in the distant sky, with mixed feelings in her heart. She couldn't say the word of forgiveness, nor could she blame anyone.
"It has nothing to do with you." After a long time, these were the only words he could utter.
Chang Heng sighed softly, "I had thought that this time when I came back, I would propose to you and carry you into the house in a sedan chair, but in the end - it can't be done anymore."
In the scorching heat, beads of sweat appeared on Chang Heng's head. "I've never been able to keep up with my family's plans. Now, all this is because the Chang family owes you. I can't ask you to forgive me, and I don't have the right to do so."
Yun Zhao handed him some water.
Chang Heng took it, the veins on the back of his hand bulging, fragile and powerless, "Yun Zhao, I only have one request. These two children are innocent. I hope you can show mercy, okay?"
Yun Zhao said, "When you sent my parents back to the frontier, I will be grateful for your kindness forever. However, my parents' vengeance is greater than heaven, so I can't promise you anything. I'm truly sorry."
Chang Heng held the water in his hand and remained silent for a long time.
After a long time, he gently stood up, sighed, and then looked straight at Yun Zhao, "Then... from now on, you will be the enemy of my Chang family."
Yun Zhao nodded without blaming her. She said, "Take care."
Chang Heng looked at Yun Zhao deeply again.
He will always remember that cold winter when he hurried in and saw the bright girl climbing the ladder to hang lanterns.
At first sight, he felt he had fallen in love with her, and he told his sister that he wanted to marry her.
I just don't know why it turned out like this.
Chang Heng gathered his shawl, his face pale as he said goodbye to Yun Zhao, "Take care." When he left, Chang Heng handed Yun Zhao a small portrait that he had carefully drawn that winter.
He had been kicking it carefully, and now, the whole picture was returned.
After the others had gone far away, Imperial Noble Consort Chen came out with her big belly. She looked at Chang Heng's back and said to Yun Zhao, "He's not as majestic as Xie Jingmo, nor as handsome as the Regent. No wonder you didn't want him."
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "I am just a commoner. It would be too high for me to marry anyone."
Imperial Noble Consort Chen shook her head and said, "You underestimate yourself."
After a moment, he asked curiously, "Xie Jingmo and Mu Chengyan, which one do you want?"
Yun Zhao looked at Consort Chen, who smiled and said, "My family has some kinship with someone. When he left, he came to me and asked me to take good care of you. He said he would definitely thank me later.
I asked him for a priceless inkstone. You know, he's poor and loves these things the most. I asked him a hundred times before, but he wouldn't give it to me. But now, for you, he's given me his precious treasure. I guess you're very important to him."
Yun Zhao then knew that Imperial Noble Consort Chen was talking about Mu Chengyan.
