Chapter 241 You are the one who killed him.
On the way back to the city.
Xie Jingmo has been waiting.
Waiting for Yun Zhao to ask him: "Why?"
That way he could say, "Because I like you. Because I love you."
He can be nice to Lin Ruyu and protect her out of guilt.
But he had never thought of treating Yun Zhao like this.
Because their feelings do not require the word "repay".
Too impure.
He kept looking at Yun Zhao, waiting for her.
But until the carriage entered the palace, Yun Zhao still showed no intention of speaking.
She was like an indifferent sculpture. No matter what he did, her heart would no longer be moved.
Yun Zhao got off the carriage and was about to enter.
Xie Jingmo couldn't help it after all, "He didn't come back with you, his bones were broken, and he is no longer useful to you, but I am different, Yun Zhao,
Aren't you good at scheming? Then you should know that I am more useful to you than Mu Chengyan. Choose me. Whether you regard me as repaying a favor or atonement, I will treat you well for the rest of my life! "
Yun Zhao walked straight in without stopping.
Xie Jingmo wanted to go in again, but Fu Hai raised his hand to stop him at the door, "General, this is inappropriate. This is the Queen Mother's bedroom. With your current status, you can't enter without permission."
Xie Jingmo stood at the door, stunned.
For the first time, I clearly felt the gap in status between me and Yun Zhao.
In the past, it was he who looked down upon Yun Zhao.
Yun Zhao's identity was changed because Yun Zhao looked down on him.
He suddenly realized how inferior, hesitant, and cautious Yun Zhao was when facing him in the past.
The boomerang that was shot out that year now turned around in the air and hit him right between the eyebrows.
Xie Jingmo walked out dejectedly and grabbed Deputy General Gao who was passing by.
"You say, we have a chance?"
"She treats me like a stranger now."
"How can I open my heart to her?"
"Deputy General Gao, you don't know, I'm at a loss right now. I can't find the entrance, and I feel like I'm going crazy."
Upon hearing this, Deputy General Gao glanced at the person beside him.
Xie Jingmo really looked worried.
He laughed heartily, "You have come to this day."
Deputy General Gao didn't know what Yun Zhao was thinking, he only knew -
Seeing Xie Jingmo like this is so damn satisfying!
It’s like, when a villain succeeds, a poor man suddenly becomes rich!
I am happy after all!
Cool!
Xie Jingmo was extremely helpless. He waited until Deputy General Gao had laughed enough before he said with a cold face, "Tell me quickly, what should I do?!"
Deputy General Gao said, "I don't know."
Xie Jingmo's face darkened even further. "Teach me the tricks you usually use to please your wife!"
Deputy General Gao shook his head, "My wife fell for my tricks, not because I'm cowardly or humble enough."
Xie Jingmo was puzzled, "Why is that?"
Deputy General Gao tapped his chest and said, "She has me here, she loves me, so she teases me. But Yun Zhao doesn't have you in her heart now. Whatever you do, it will be in vain and will only disgust her."
Xie Jingmo's face fell when he heard this, "Then how can I make her have me in her heart?"
Deputy General Gao ate peanuts and shook his head again.
Xie Jingmo almost had a heart attack. "You have nothing to say except shaking your head? I saw you were so pretentious when you lectured me before. What's wrong? Today I came to ask you for advice, and you're putting on airs, right?"
Deputy General Gao chuckled, that was somewhat what he meant.
“But not entirely.”
"This girl Yun Zhao is different from others."
"She's so independent and so resilient, she seems to be able to do everything on her own. Look at her fingers before, they looked like they were about to fall off. Now she's recovered so well that even the imperial physician said it was impossible. But she uses her strong willpower and practices every day. I heard that she almost fainted when she started shaking hands."
"But she doesn't believe in evil. She shakes my hand every day, every day. Although her hand isn't as good as before, she can still diagnose a pulse. Who can be more ruthless than her? Even I am not as good as her."
Xie Jingmo didn't understand what was going on. "I asked you how you made her have me in her heart. Why are you telling me this?"
Deputy General Gao said, "What I mean is, she's cruel to others, but even crueler to herself. If she insists on not wanting you, then forcing her to do so will be useless."
Xie Jingmo looked dejected when he heard this.
Deputy General Gao smiled and said, "But, isn't that still five years away?"
Xie Jingmo became excited again, "What do you mean?"
"Dripping water wears away stone," Deputy General Gao said. "Although it may be a bit despicable, isn't Mu Chengyan currently feeling resentful because of the late emperor? Take this opportunity and fight Yun Zhao to the death!"
Xie Jingmo: "How to fight to the death?!"
Vice General Gao: "What she loves, you give her; what she cares about, you dedicate to her; you give her your life, no matter how hard-hearted she is. Let's not talk about winning her heart, but at least she can say a few kind words to you."
Deputy General Gao whispered to Xie Jingmo, "Besides, I don't think Yun Zhaozhi is interested in assisting the new emperor."
Xie Jingmo was shocked.
"You mean...she..."
Deputy General Gao pointed to the sky and said, "Last time we talked, she said she wanted to go forward and take a look."
"Forward."
"In front of the Queen Mother."
"What did you say?"
That night.
Yun Zhao went to the dungeon to see Concubine Yi.
Xie Jingmo also wants to go.
After Yun Zhao went in, Xie Jingmo followed beside him.
When Concubine Yi saw Yun Zhao coming, she sneered, "I thought it was someone else, but it's you. Why, you're so eager to ridicule me?"
Yun Zhao sat outside.
Concubine Yi did not dare to be too arrogant towards Yun Zhao.
After all, Yun Zhao raised his hand and did not blame the two children.
"I'm here to ask you just one question."
"Besides you, who else was involved in the conspiracy against Mu Chengyan?"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Xie Jingmo's eyes flashed.
Concubine Yi laughed and glanced at Xie Jingmo vaguely, "No, it's just Mu Chengyan, why do we need so many people to fight?"
Yun Zhao said, "The floods in Jiangnan were originally scheduled for six months, but they have been extended indefinitely. Why is that?"
"After that, everyone returned to the capital. Logically, Mu Chengyan, as the person in charge, should have been the first to return to the capital. Why was he the last to leave? What happened? Who intervened?"
"The news of him falling off the cliff took so long to reach the capital that he was not found until he had been missing for many days."
"I don't believe you're the only one behind this whole series of events."
When Concubine Yi heard this, she was stunned for a moment.
Then he smiled slowly.
"You are indeed smart."
"What a pity... I was too aggressive with you back then, otherwise my child would be sitting on the throne today."
"But Yun Zhao, you always think that others are plotting against you, but have you ever thought that if you are too smart, others will speculate about you. Otherwise, why would others only plot against you?"
"I."
"The Queen Mother."
"Former Queen."
"Even the Emperor."
"Have you ever thought that, in fact, it was you who harmed Mu Chengyan?"
"Your affection for him became your weakness, making him a victim."
"You are the one who killed him."
Xie Jingmo's eyes were shocked when he heard this.
I was afraid that Yun Zhao would get stuck on this sentence.
But unexpectedly——
A cold light flashed before his eyes, and the sword groove at his waist was empty.
All I heard was a "Ah!"
Concubine Yi suddenly knelt down. Her kneecaps had been severed by the sword, and she could no longer stand up.
