Chapter 236, Will He... Definitely Die?
Xie Jingmo didn't answer.
But Yun Zhao understood everything.
At the same time, she also understood a sentence -
It means that once you enter the imperial city, it is like entering a deep sea.
She raised her head in the darkness of the night. The candlelight around her was bright. She only asked Xie Jingmo, "Do you have a rough idea of who took the person away?"
Xie Jingmo had some thoughts in his mind, but he pursed his lips and didn't say anything in the end.
Yun Zhao nodded, "Yes, it's not your responsibility to help me."
After saying that, Yun Zhao turned around and was about to leave.
Xie Jingmo stared at Yun Zhao's tough and thin back in a daze, feeling a surge of pity in his heart.
He raised his hand and grabbed Yun Zhao's shoulder.
As his hand shook, Yun Zhao's dangling finger was covered in blood, stinging Xie Jingmo's eyes.
"He's so important to you, you don't even have time to treat your own wounds. You're a doctor, you once said your hands are worth more than your life, but now, you don't care anymore?"
Yun Zhao: "Yes, Mu Chengyan is more important to me than my life."
Xie Jingmo suddenly lost consciousness when he heard this.
He stared blankly at Yun Zhao's profile, and seeing her body covered in blood, he suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable and almost couldn't breathe.
Seeing Yun Zhao was about to leave.
Xie Jingmo said weakly: "Tonight, the Queen Mother is here with the Emperor, so she is probably busy. The only one in the palace who has a grudge against you is——"
Xie Jingmo didn't finish his words.
Yun Zhao already understood everything.
She said softly, "Thank you," and walked away.
Xie Jingmo chased after her eagerly, his heart filled with deep affection and serious anxiety, "Yun Zhao, you can't defeat Concubine Yi. Concubine Yi has lost her power now, but the emperor's body is not going to last for a few days. The Chang family will definitely support Concubine Yi's child as the crown prince.
By then, the child will still be in swaddling clothes, and the Chang family will control the government. At that time, crushing you will be as easy as crushing an ant. If you can't save Mu Chengyan now, you will only be putting yourself in trouble!"
Yun Zhao sneered when he heard this.
She turned around, and even though she was covered in blood, her appearance was still bright and beautiful.
Her eyes are always bright.
It contains tenacity, stubbornness and the courage to break through!
"Xie Jingmo, we are not the same kind of people."
Xie Jingmo was stunned. He looked at Yun Zhao's resolute face, his fingertips trembling.
"At first, everyone said you were doomed, but I was the one who saved you from the dead. Do you remember?"
"Now, everyone says that Mu Chengyan has no chance of survival," Yun Zhao raised his hands. "It was me who used these hands to dig him out of the mud."
"I've done many things that many people don't understand, don't agree with, and even deny. I only believe in myself. We are not on the same page. I will remember your kindness today. If we end up on the opposite side in the future, I will let you go because of what happened today."
"In the past, I only stood behind you." That night, the moonlight was dark and the wind was strong, blowing up the hem of her plain clothes. Xie Jingmo saw Yun Zhao smile and she said, "Now, I also want to stand forward. In the past, people in the army always said it was a pity that Yun Zhao was not a man, otherwise she would have been so brave in the battle."
"But they don't know that the battlefield of life is never limited to the battlefield. This harem can also be that."
Xie Jingmo's face turned pale, "What are you going to do?!"
Yun Zhao said, "Xie Jingmo, I've always wondered, if I were to have a contest with you, who would win and who would lose? I was always willing to assist you, but now, it's time for you to see my true strength."
Yun Zhao laughed.
She was no longer looking at Xie Jingmo in front of her. She raised her eyes upwards and saw the moon was very bright.
But it's not as good as the inside.
But it doesn't matter.
As long as you are successful in life, there is vitality everywhere.
I'm afraid that man will say that she broke her promise again.
Yun Zhao closed her eyes, and the last trace of tenderness in them disappeared. She didn't look at Xie Jingmo again, and turned away.
Xie Jingmo shouted from behind!
But the cries were drowned out by the wind and the rain.
In the end, amid the scattered sounds of beating, only powerless regret remained!
Yun Zhao knelt in front of Queen Chen.
Empress Chen was anxious, "I sent many people, but couldn't find Mu Chengyan."
Yun Zhao raised his eyes.
Empress Chen was stunned for a moment, "You..."
Yun Zhao bowed deeply, then stood up and asked directly, "Your Majesty, do you wish to be the Empress Dowager, or do you wish to be buried in the Imperial Mausoleum?
Empress Chen was shocked, her face immediately turned cold. "What nonsense are you talking about?! Concubines can only be buried with the emperor in the mausoleum. You are cursing the emperor's death! Do you know that just saying this will get you beheaded?"
Yun Zhao's expression was indifferent, and he just looked at Queen Chen quietly.
Empress Chen was startled. "You mean..."
The child inside was crying, which made people feel upset.
Empress Chen turned around and told the wet nurse inside to take the child into the house and leave.
"You mean, the emperor can't get through this?"
Yun Zhao: "He's been poisoned by a sufficient amount of Hell White Lotus. Even the poison immortals can't cure him."
Empress Chen was shocked. "This... that... but the emperor was clearly fine before. Who dared to poison him? This is a life-threatening act!"
Yun Zhao appeared calm and indifferent. "If Your Majesty prioritizes these issues now, you will be buried with the emperor in the future. Since Your Majesty has no lofty ambitions, there is no need for me to waste my time here."
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he was about to stand up.
Empress Chen immediately became anxious, "Hey, look how anxious you are! This happened so suddenly that I didn't think it through."
Yun Zhao looked at Empress Chen and said, "Time is of the essence. Even a slight mistake can lead to a huge loss. If you don't consider your prince, you should also consider the princess."
Empress Chen swallowed.
Yun Zhao said: "I know that your plan did not include the prince of the late queen, but now, fate has come to this, you have no chance to have your own child with the emperor,
Besides, does it really matter whether she is your biological mother or not? This child is still in her infancy. As long as you want, you are her biological mother."
Upon hearing this, Empress Chen tightened her grip and asked, "Then...what should we do in the future?"
Yun Zhao said, "Find Mu Chengyan and have him become the regent of the new monarch. Supporting the new emperor will protect the Chen and Xie families and bring them eternal glory."
Upon hearing this, the turmoil in Empress Chen's eyes gradually calmed down.
"Are you negotiating terms with me?" The condition was to rescue Mu Chengyan.
Yun Zhao was direct and straightforward. "Yes, otherwise why would I bother? Of course, I also think you are qualified to be the head of the harem. Otherwise, if I had approached Concubine Yi directly, she would probably be very happy to do me a favor."
Empress Chen hesitated for a moment.
"The person is in Concubine Yi's hands. How do you know I can save him?"
Yun Zhao sees through human nature.
Mu Chengyan and Empress Chen have a good relationship as relatives, but when it comes to greater interests, apart from involving themselves, they will only contribute some effort in minor aspects.
"I know you have a secret guard in the palace, and I also know that Chen has a death squad outside. In the past, it was to ensure your safety, but now—"
Yun Zhao raised his eyes, looked at Empress Chen and smiled, "It's time to get back to work."
Empress Chen was shocked. "How did you know that I have these people under my command?"
Yun Zhao stood up and brushed off the dirt on his body. "You always focus on these trivial details."
Empress Chen frowned. "Can you guarantee that the Emperor's poison cannot be cured? Will he... definitely die?"
