Chapter 268 This Oolong
Xie Jingmo turned around and saw Fu Hai standing behind him.
Fu Hai walked over with a smile and brushed his body. "General, long time no see. How are you feeling recently?"
Xie Jingmo nodded, "Yeah." He looked majestic and dignified, no longer like the living dead he looked like the year before.
After all, people need something to hope for.
Fu Hai asked softly, "We're already at the city gate, why don't you go in, General?"
Mingyue was also curious. She tilted her head and looked at Xie Jingmo with her big eyes.
How could Xie Jingmo not want to go in?
This year, everyone he thought about was going crazy.
The situation in the northwest is difficult and we cannot take it over for the time being, so we can only come here under the pretext of delivering chestnuts.
It’s just one trip a year.
It's a life-threatening situation.
Now that it's here, it's even at the door. I've been looking forward to it for a long time.
In the end, he backed down.
Now facing Fu Hai's question, he smiled a little embarrassedly, "I won't go in. I'll come back another day."
Fu Hai smiled and said, "Prime Minister Guo recently sent me some good tea. If you don't mind, General, would you like to try it?"
Xie Jingmo glanced at the majestic palace and wanted to say no, but Mingyue beside him hurriedly responded, "Okay!"
"General, I haven't tasted the good tea in the capital yet. If you take me to see the world, it will be worth my coming all the way here. Go, go!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Jingmo turned around and looked at Mingyue.
He sighed slightly and looked up at Fu Hai, "Then I'll have to trouble you, father-in-law."
Fu Haiduo glanced at Mingyue, then raised his hand with a smile, "General, please."
Actually, that look of Fu Hai was quite interesting.
But it’s not that interesting.
Xie Jingmo saw it and said while drinking tea, "This is a little girl we picked up in the northwest. Deputy General Gao and his men said she wouldn't survive if we threw her away, so she stayed with the army. This time, we also have others accompanying us."
Fu Hai smiled and nodded, "Is that so? You look a bit like the Empress Dowager in your eyes and brows, especially when you smile."
Xie Jingmo was greatly shocked. "How is that possible? They don't look alike at all, it's a natural difference!"
Fu Hai was startled by Xie Jingmo's reaction.
He paused for a moment in surprise, then smiled softly, "General, why are you so anxious? It's just a joke."
Mingyue looked at Xie Jingmo with a smile, "I think they are somewhat similar myself."
Xie Jingmo's breathing stagnated, "Nonsense!"
"How is it similar?"
“It’s nothing like that!”
Mingyue's eyes widened in disbelief. "General, what do you mean? You think the Queen Mother is beautiful and I'm ugly, right?"
Mingyue almost cried.
Xie Jingmo didn't care at all, "It's true, not at all similar."
Mingyue: “…”
Fu Hai laughed and stopped discussing the topic. Instead, he asked Xie Jingmo, "It's rare for the general to come. Now that the empress dowager has left the court, do you want to go and see her?"
Otherwise, it will be another year.
Xie Jingmo originally had no intention of meeting anyone.
But now I can’t disappear!
If I don't explain it in person, who knows what Fu Hai will say if he conveys it in the future?
He had to explain it himself.
So he immediately said, "Okay, we should meet."
Yun Zhao originally thought that Xie Jingmo had left. When Fu Hai came in to inform her, she raised her eyes in surprise.
"You said there's someone at the door?"
Fu Hai nodded with a smile.
Yun Zhao was about to ask a question, but the person at the door, fearing that he would be turned away, stepped in.
This was the first time Yun Zhao saw Xie Jingmo after a year.
It's completely different from when I left.
He had a strong aura, walked with a breeze, and had a bandit-like air about him. He walked in with a tall and strong figure, blocking the scorching sun outside.
"Queen Mother, long time no see."
Yun Zhao looked at Xie Jingmo's face, which was darkened by the northwest wind and sand, and nodded, "Yeah."
After this "hmm", Xie Jingmo fell silent.
His mind was full of how to explain the relationship between Mingyue and himself in a way that was not far-fetched or incongruous.
It was true that he picked up Mingyue.
But he never hid the fact that Mingyue was even remotely similar to Yunzhao.
Moreover, he didn't think Mingyue and Yun Zhao were similar at all.
Yun Zhao sat in his seat, and seeing that Xie Jingmo was at a loss, his brows were furrowed with bitterness and resentment.
"Is there any difficulty in the northwest?" Yun Zhao asked.
Xie Jingmo: "Huh?" He paused, coming back to his senses. "Well, a little, but it's not a big deal. I just need to report to the Queen Mother. We found a little girl at the frontier, and Deputy General Gao and his men are happy to keep her. I'm not sure if it's appropriate, so I came to ask the Queen Mother."
Yun Zhao: “?”
Yun Zhao was stunned.
General of the Northwest.
Do you need to ask this specifically?
Yun Zhao didn't understand.
not understand.
Fu Hai was trying to hold back his laughter.
Mingyue was speechless, but she didn't dare to question Xie Jingmo and Yun Zhao, who had such a strong aura, and could only swallow her pride.
Xie Jingmo felt that he had lost all face after entering the palace!
He pursed his lips and just went for it, "I never thought Mingyue looked like anyone else. When I was at the frontier, I treated you..." His voice trailed off here, and Yun Zhao couldn't hear what Xie Jingmo was saying.
All I know is that Xie Jingmo said three words with a stern face, "Anyway, I will only treat you like that."
After saying that, Xie Jingmo's handsome face flushed red, and he turned around and walked away quickly as if escaping.
Only after Xie Jingmo walked away did Fu Hai burst into explosive laughter.
The laughter was so loud that Fu Hai suspected that Xie Jingmo must have heard it.
Because when Xie Jingmo was walking out, he tripped and almost fell down in an undignified manner.
Fu Hai laughed even harder.
Yun Zhao didn't understand at all. He just looked at Xie Jingmo's back as he hurriedly left and asked Fu Hai, "What happened?"
Fu Hai smiled cunningly and explained the whole story.
Yun Zhao was stunned for a moment. That Mingyue had nothing in common with himself.
Xie Jingmo is so smart, but he actually lost his composure because of a few jokes.
Yun Zhao turned to Fu Hai and asked, "Do you think it looks like that?"
Fu Hai shook his head. "They don't look alike, but they do have a certain unbridled smile. However, I was just speaking casually. I haven't seen the general for a long time, and I didn't know how to bring up the topic. I didn't expect this misunderstanding."
Fu Hai smiled and knelt down. "I deserve to die. I don't know what the general is thinking when he returns. The general is guarding the northwest. Now this incident has happened. It is my fault. I beg the Queen Mother to show me some mercy and reward the general with something to comfort him. Otherwise, I will not be able to see him in the future."
Yun Zhao looked at the smile on Fu Hai's lips, and suddenly remembered that Fu Hai did not seem to be afraid of Xie Jingmo.
Fu Hai seemed to have seen Yun Zhao's thoughts and said with a smile, "I know the general will not really be angry with me, because I am the most loyal person around you, and the general is grateful that I accompany the queen mother."
The people of Fuhai are generally very smart.
The words are sweet.
Yun Zhao asked Fu Hai to go to the warehouse and pick something for Xie Jingmo.
Fu Hai went there happily.
