Chapter 220 Yizhi
Xie Jingmo frowned as he watched Mu Chengyan's hand fall on Yun Zhao's body, "Let her go!"
Mu Chengyan looked down at Yun Zhao, "Are you okay?"
Yun Zhao shook his head. "It's okay. Didn't the emperor urgently summon you? Go ahead. I'm fine here."
The flood in the south of the Yangtze River was severe, with countless casualties. Mu Chengyan's eyes were red, and he hadn't slept for many days. He was worried and confirmed with Yun Zhao several times. Only after confirming that Yun Zhao was fine did he walk towards the emperor's study.
Xie Jingmo stared into Yun Zhao's eyes. "Mu Chengyan is not a good person. Don't get too close to him. Yun Zhao, please go and save Lin Ruyu. She is dying. If you don't go, she won't survive tonight!"
Yun Zhao stepped over the railing and said calmly, "Can't survive tonight? Then I'll buy some firecrackers tomorrow morning to celebrate."
Xie Jingmo frowned, "Yun Zhao, I will do whatever you want in the future. As long as my life is in jeopardy, you must come with me this time."
Yun Zhao stopped and looked at Xie Jingmo, "What if I don't?"
Xie Jingmo looked at Yun Zhao solemnly, his eyes complicated. After a moment, he said calmly, "Yun Zhao, I know you want to avenge your parents, but Lin Ruyu is my savior. I can't just sit back and watch. You can blame me however you want in the future, but I have to save Lin Ruyu first."
As he spoke, under Yun Zhao's indifferent gaze, Xie Jingmo directly pulled the person into the imperial study.
"What?" The emperor's face was gloomy. He frowned and looked at Xie Jingmo solemnly, "Are you crazy?!"
"You want to use your seven years of military service at the border, the military power in your hands, and your status as a general to ask for a way out for Lin Ruyu?" The emperor thought this request was ridiculous!
"Xie Jingmo, do you know what you are talking about?!"
Xie Jingmo knelt on the ground, "I know!"
"The military industry you've built up over the past seven years on the frontier was incredibly hard-earned. Are you going to give it up for a woman, especially one like Lin Ruyu? You know, without the title of general, you're just an idle prince. Do you know what people outside will say about you?
Xie Jingmo, Lin Ruyu is not a simple person. The fact that she even thought of crying and begging in the street shows that she has no consideration for your situation at all. Now you are willing to give up so much just to save her?!
The emperor was simply incomprehensible. "You're like this, and you still say that you don't have her in your heart?"
Xie Jingmo knelt on the ground. After the emperor said this, he turned his head to look at Yun Zhao.
He spoke calmly, "I do have someone in my heart, but it's not Lin Ruyu. However, I cannot fail to repay the kindness I received. I beg Your Majesty to grant me this."
The emperor narrowed his eyes and asked, "How are you going to fulfill this?"
There was silence in the imperial study.
Fu Hai stood at the door and sighed.
Then, in the imperial study, Xie Jingmo's voice slowly rang out, "I would like to borrow the services of Concubine Yun. She can cure the poison in Lin Ruyu's body."
The emperor looked at Xie Jingmo and spoke slowly, "Can she solve it? What if she can't?"
Xie Jingmo was certain, "No, she can."
Just as the emperor was about to look at Yun Zhao to ask, he heard Xie Jingmo speak again, "If it cannot be solved, it is not because I cannot, but because I am unwilling. That is why I come to see Your Majesty."
The emperor heard something from this, "You mean..."
The emperor felt that what he was going to say next would seem cruel, and he glanced at Yun Zhao.
Sure enough, Yun Zhao's face had turned pale, and his bloodless lips were pursed.
"What I mean is," Xie Jingmo didn't want to embarrass anyone, but he had no choice. Lin Ruyu's only way out now was this. She had been so ruthless to him before, and now he couldn't bear to see her die like this. "Your Majesty, please issue an imperial decree, and let me take Concubine Yun out of the palace to treat Lin Ruyu."
As soon as he finished speaking, the emperor saw Yun Zhao's fingertips sinking into the skin of his palm.
He frowned and was about to slow down the matter.
Yun Zhao and Xie Jingmo have been entangled for seven years. Now Xie Jingmo has risked his entire military career for another woman. She is begging for a chance to live, but the doctor can only be Yun Zhao.
This is a bit too cruel.
The emperor himself couldn't stand it at first.
"Xie Jingmo, do you know what it means if I issue this imperial decree?"
Xie Jingmo nodded and gritted his teeth, "I understand. Anyone who disobeys my order will be killed without mercy!"
The emperor's eyes were gloomy and he sighed, "Are you going to kill my Concubine Yun?" When it comes to cruelty, Xie Jingmo is indeed as decisive as a royal family.
Xie Jingmo gritted his teeth and said solemnly, "Yunpin won't die, and neither will Lin Ruyu. Yunpin can cure this poison."
The emperor naturally understood, and Yun Zhao could explain it.
"If she could, would she be unwilling to do it? Have you ever considered that this imperial decree would also cost Yun Zhao his life?"
Xie Jingmo's hand on his leg suddenly clenched. He said, "If Yunzhao doesn't understand, then I will die with them!"
The emperor's frown deepened.
He turned to look at Yun Zhao, feeling that Xie Jingmo was too decisive in this matter. He tried to speak to ease the situation, "Yunpin, I will not issue the imperial decree. Can you go back to the palace with General Xie to see if he can be cured? If so, then we can do it."
"Xie Jingmo, don't throw a tantrum. My Concubine Yun went out to treat Lin Ruyu, which was already a great honor for her."
Xie Jingmo did not stand up.
The emperor understood Yun Zhao.
Xie Jingmo naturally understood as well.
If there was no imperial decree, Yun Zhao would never save Lin Ruyu, and she would definitely die!
"Please grant me your blessing, Your Majesty." Xie Jingmo leaned over and knocked his head on the ground with a bang.
The emperor frowned. In fact, whether Lin Ruyu lived or died had nothing to do with him, but he was unwilling to be led by Xie Jingmo.
Too lawless, too rebellious.
Furthermore, he was actually a little worried that if he issued this imperial decree, Yun Zhao would be completely ruined.
But Xie Jingmo pressed on step by step, and his head was bleeding, so the emperor finally had to agree.
After the imperial edict was issued, Xie Jingmo stood up, but did not dare to look at Yun Zhao again.
Yun Zhao had a calm expression and said to Xie Jingmo, "I'll go back and get some things."
Xie Jingmo said, "I'll go with you."
Yun Zhao didn't respond, so Xie Jingmo followed behind him.
They have known each other for many years. In the beginning, Yun Zhao doted on Xie Jingmo, taking care of him in every detail. Later, when they came to the palace, Xie Jingmo became the one who would not give in.
They have been entangled for many years.
But I didn't expect it to come to this.
Even if Yun Zhao had planned it a thousand times, she would never have expected that Xie Jingmo would use his military merits and her life to ask for a glimmer of hope for Lin Ruyu.
Yun Zhao went to see Imperial Noble Consort Chen and gave her five pills. "I carefully developed this pill. It's the best for preserving the fetus. On the day of delivery, Mu Chengyan's skills will definitely keep you safe."
Imperial Noble Consort Chen looked at Yun Zhao, "Did the Emperor...really issue an imperial decree? Instructing you to treat Lin Ruyu?"
Yun Zhao nodded. "Your Majesty, there's no need to tell Mu Chengyan about this. He's traveling day and night back to Jiangnan. There are helpless people like my parents there who need him. I can handle my own affairs."
Yun Zhao had a dull expression.
Concubine Chen believed it to be true.
Yun Zhao has always been the most reliable person.
