Chapter 259 Engagement
That day, Yun Zhao sat in that secret room for a long time.
Fu Hai sighed and then quietly retreated.
Yun Zhao didn't even notice when Xie Jingmo came.
Yun Zhao only opened his eyelids when Xie Jingmo raised his hand to take the paper.
Xie Jingmo glanced at her for a few seconds and said, "Don't be sad, I will always be with you."
"I didn't understand love before. I loved you, but that didn't stop me from feeling sorry for you and Mu Chengyan. But Zhao Zhao, you two are not the same kind of people. I think Mu Chengyan discovered this, so he left."
Yun Zhao took the paper unhappily.
Then I heard Xie Jingmo say: "He is not the same kind of person as you, but there are people who are the same kind of person as you. There are people who will follow you wherever you go."
"Zhao Zhao, you are not a fish in the pond. You should not be trapped in a small corner. You have talent, ambition, and tenacity. Your abilities should serve more things. This is who you are."
"You should sit in a high position and be admired."
Yun Zhao was too lazy to listen and stood up to leave.
Xie Jingmo followed behind, "Besides, what's so delicious about fresh lotus pods? If you like, I'll plant a garden for you in the back garden later, okay?"
Yun Zhao was in front, and Xie Jingmo followed behind.
Fu Hai and Deputy General Gao followed behind.
Fu Hai shook his head. "General Xie really doesn't know how to pursue girls. He's too inexperienced."
Deputy General Gao laughed, "It's not easy to get him to be so humble."
Fu Hai also laughed, "After all, the friendship in youth is deep. People who are unwilling to let go even in death should not be separated in the future."
Deputy General Gao smiled and the two of them followed.
Xie Jingmo said he wanted to plant lotus pods, and he actually did. He stepped into the pond barefoot, waved his hands, and shouted to Yun Zhao, "I'll fill this pond up for you. Do you like it?"
Yun Zhao and the minister passed by and felt embarrassed, so they pretended not to hear.
The ministers laughed.
He didn't take Xie Jingmo seriously at all.
After all, a man who has lost his male function cannot cause any waves.
At least it's much better than those demon-controlled men outside.
When Mu Chengyan came here before, they were quite worried. This man was very cunning and the Queen Mother was young and upright. If the Queen Mother became pregnant by accident, she would inevitably not want her future child to inherit the throne.
That would be troublesome.
Xie Jingmo is good enough nowadays.
Everyone happily followed Xie Jingmo in and out freely, and no one gossiped.
Plant a pond of lotus flowers, and when the wind blows, it creates a wave of flowers.
Deputy General Gao smiled and looked at Xie Jingmo's profile and said, "I've seen you feel much better recently. It seems that your mood and body are better now."
Xie Jingmo nodded and smiled, "Although it's not very kind to say this, but now that Mu Chengyan is gone, my body will naturally get better, hahahaha!"
When the two of them are comfortable.
Fu Hai ran over so quickly that his boots almost fell off his feet.
The two of them laughed at him here.
"Fu Hai, you're so impatient. Why are you always so anxious about everything?"
"That's right, walk slowly and talk slowly," Xie Jingmo handed over the lotus pod he had just picked, "Try the fresh lotus pod."
Fu Hai had no time to eat. He groaned and handed over a piece of paper. "General, you are so generous. You can still eat at this time. Come and see! Something big has happened!"
Xie Jingmo laughed at Fu Hai for being exaggerated.
Now in his mind, as long as his competitor Mu Chengyan is gone, what big deal will it matter——
The smile on Xie Jingmo's face completely froze after he saw the words on the paper.
Deputy General Gao stretched his head to take a look, confused. "Oh my god! When did you promise me this? You'd better take it quickly, don't let Yun Zhao see it! I was a little nice to you just now, but once this thing is out, you'll have nothing. I really admire you, Xie Jingmo, how can you be so troublesome!"
Xie Jingmo has been so happy lately that he completely forgot about this matter.
He asked anxiously, "Didn't Zhi Yunzhao see this?"
Fu Hai hurriedly shook his head. "No, how could I dare? But Prime Minister Guo Tao said that now that the matter is settled, he has chosen a date at home, and the general will personally go to the bride. He also said that the Prime Minister's daughter's wedding should be grand, so after you finish your business in the palace, come to the palace to discuss it as soon as possible."
Xie Jingmo's face fell.
Deputy General Gao slapped his forehead. "I was wondering why that old man Guo Tao was so kind, moving all his elite soldiers hidden in the bottom of the box to support you. It turns out you agreed to this rubbish! But I remember that Guo Yuanyuan of the Guo family is already married. He asked you to marry his daughter for the second time?! Is he a human being?!"
Xie Jingmo's face was gloomy, "No..."
"No?" Deputy General Gao, "Not Guo Yuanyuan?"
Fu Hai swallowed hard, "I heard that Prime Minister Guo has two daughters. They are not in the right mind and need to be fed. Could it be that—"
Xie Jingmo nodded, "Yes, it's her, Guo Aiai."
Vice Admiral Gao: "!"
Fu Hai: “!”
Deputy General Gao: "How can this be possible?! You are a general, and your relationship with Yun Zhao has just improved. You, you, you..."
Xie Jingmo looked dejected. "What if we use someone else's soldiers? Besides, I was anxious at the time, so I wrote him a letter of guarantee and a public notice with my fingerprints. It said that I would marry Guo Ai Ai as my wife in the future, for the rest of my life, and would never take concubines."
For a moment, the scene fell into deathly silence.
"You..." Deputy General Gao gritted his teeth but could not think of a solution.
Fu Hai was standing aside, his eyes blazing with anxiety. "Prime Minister Guo also said that if General Xie forgets his promise, he wouldn't mind asking the Queen Mother for justice. He also said that since the general broke his promise today, he must command his men in the future to be convinced."
Deputy General Gao clicked his tongue and said, "Is this Guo Tao really your uncle? This move is really fatal. What should we do?"
The words fell.
Yun Zhao came down from the court and slowly came from the opposite side, with a smile on his face in a sea of flowers, looking incredibly beautiful.
Xie Jingmo was feeling happy but struggling at the same time, like being fried in oil.
Deputy General Gao whispered, "Let's not talk about it yet. Let's see if we can solve it. Keep it a secret for now."
Xie Jingmo stood up obscurely and gritted his teeth, "After dinner, come with me to the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Deputy General Gao nodded.
After finishing the meal, the two of them slipped away immediately.
Yun Zhao hadn't even taken two bites when he looked at the hurried figures of the two and asked Fu Hai in confusion, "What's going on with them today?"
After the palace coup, many places in the palace needed to be repaired. Deputy General Gao and Xie Jingmo took over the work and came to Yun Zhao's place to eat when the time came.
On weekdays, these two people would never be full without two big bowls of food.
Today, the two of them didn't eat five bites in total.
Fu Hai smiled awkwardly, "I heard that there are some areas that need to be corrected during the Meridian Gate renovations. Vice Admiral Gao and the General are concerned about this. I guess it's over now."
