Chapter 282 I Don’t Dare
Daqing felt that Xie Jingmo was beyond saving.
But I also feel that I am the only one who can save him.
Da Qing looked at Xie Jingmo's stubborn face and smiled coldly, "Xie Jingmo, do you dare to make a bet with me?"
Hearing this, Xie Jingmo tilted his head to glance at Daqing and smiled, "I dare not."
Da Qing gritted his teeth, "I don't care if you dare or not, you must make this bet with me. Three days. As long as the Queen Mother asks me to let you stay within three days, I won't take you away. Otherwise, after three days, you will die in the northwest!"
Xie Jingmo felt that he had lost the bet from the beginning.
But I still want to ask, "What if she asks me to stay?"
Xie Jingmo spoke the word "she" with tenderness.
When the bet started, Daqing felt that she had already lost, but she still said stubbornly, "If she asks, I will find someone else to marry, how about that?"
Xie Jingmo was silent for a while.
Da Qing looked at Xie Jingmo and said, "Xie Jingmo, don't push your luck. This is your only chance. Otherwise, you know that if I don't let go, you won't even have this chance."
Xie Jingmo sighed, "Okay."
Daqing left with satisfaction.
Vice Admiral Gao rushed in from outside, "Are you crazy? Three days? Do you want Yun Zhao to ask you to stay for three days?"
Xie Jingmo said helplessly, "Just like Daqing said, if I don't agree, she will leave immediately in these three days. She is so crazy. What can I do?"
In the end...
You have to give it a try.
He just didn't believe that Yun Zhao's heart was made of stone?
Xie Jingmo went to the palace again, and when he went there, Guo Tao and Guo Aiai were there.
Unlike before, this time Guo Ai Ai was not doing acupuncture, but sitting quietly on the side.
Yun Zhao's acupuncture worked, and combined with the decoction, he actually got much better.
Now she is not as crazy as before. She sits quietly, showing some of the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
"Ai Ai, this is my cousin. Do you remember me?" Guo Tao introduced Guo Ai Ai and explained to Xie Jingmo, "I've recovered a lot, but I don't remember him very well."
Before Guo Ai Ai raised her eyes, she felt a gust of wind blowing in from the door along with the person who came.
Then, there was a tall figure falling to the ground.
She slowly raised her head and saw an elegant young man in a long gown. When he smiled, he was gentle and kind, and he looked very handsome.
Guo Aiai was stunned for a moment.
Guo Tao called out, "Ai Ai?"
Guo Ai Ai came back to her senses, a blush appearing on her cheeks.
She stood up and saluted, "Hello, cousin."
In Xie Jingmo's eyes, Guo Aiai is still the little girl who hugs the pillow and smiles foolishly.
Now that she has been dressed up, she looks more well-behaved for no reason.
"Ai Ai, are you feeling better?"
Guo Aiai, "The Queen Mother Lao personally gave me acupuncture, and I'm much better now."
After hearing this, Xie Jingmo felt much more relieved. Guo Tao had made many plans for him, so he naturally also hoped that Guo Aiai would be well.
Guo Tao and Guo Aiai sat for a while and then left.
After walking a long way, Guo Aiai turned around, looked at Xie Jingmo's tall figure, and smiled gently.
"Father."
"Um?"
"I heard from Xiao Cui next to me that my eldest sister was originally promised to my cousin, and then when she got married, she promised me to my cousin?"
"Yes, come here, there are stairs," Guo Tao said, unaware of the girl's thoughts. "At the beginning, I was optimistic about Jing Mo and thought he was a good man. Naturally, I hoped that one of you sisters could marry him. But now Jing Mo is getting married to Xibei, and there are many twists and turns, so I won't mention them."
Guo Aiai tightened the handkerchief in her hand. "I still remember that there was a period of time when my cousin always came to see me and stayed by my side. One time, I jumped into the lake, and he saved me."
Blurry shadows swayed before my eyes, forming a blurry shape.
Until just now——
A blurry figure walked in from the sunset, blocking the light coming in from outside the door.
Everything became real.
"If there were no Daqing, no Xiongnu, then I would be my cousin's wife."
Guo Tao was old and didn't hear clearly. He turned around and asked Guo Ai Ai, "What are you mumbling about?"
Guo Tao was smiling. He had been smiling like this lately.
In his lifetime, he only hoped to settle Ai Ai down, but he never thought that there would be a day when he would see Guo Ai Ai living like a normal person.
God has been kind to him, and he is very content!
"Ai Ai, you should thank your cousin for this. If it weren't for your cousin, how could the Queen Mother treat you personally?"
Guo Ai Ai nodded. "Well, I should thank my cousin. Should I invite him to dinner at home tonight?"
Guo Tao laughed, "My Ai Ai is really sensible. Daddy will find a good marriage for you in the future, and then Daddy's life will be complete."
The two of them walked back. Before leaving, they asked their attendants to wait for Xie Jingmo at the Empress Dowager's door and invite him to their home for dinner.
The attendant obediently went to wait at the Empress Dowager's door.
Fu Hai saw the person and asked why he came back.
The attendant smiled and said, "Our master invited General Xie to have dinner at his mansion."
Fu Hai heard it, and thinking back to Guo Ai'ai's shy laughter just now, he had an idea in his mind.
Fu Hai walked in deliberately and mentioned this matter to Xie Jingmo.
As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Xie Jingmo.
"Dinner?"
"I won't go out, right? I'll just beg for something to eat here." There are only three days left, and the night time is so important, how can we waste it?
Xie Jingmo stood up and said, "I'll go out and tell my uncle's entourage."
Xie Jingmo walked out.
Fu Hai looked at Yun Zhao with a meaningful look.
Yun Zhao also looked at Fu Hai, "Why are you making such a fuss?"
Fu Hai smiled softly, "I just wanted to see what General Xie's attitude was. It seems that he doesn't know."
Yun Zhao lowered his head to review the memorials, "I'm free."
When Xie Jingmo came in, he heard these two words and asked, "What are you idle about? Who is idle?"
Yun Zhao didn't say anything, so Fu Hai chatted with him.
"Miss Ai Ai is doing very well now, and the Prime Minister is also very happy to see her. General Xie didn't see it. Miss Ai Ai said a lot before you came just now."
Xie Jingmo drank his tea and glanced at Yun Zhao, "That's good, it shows that Yun Zhao is a good doctor."
Then he put down his teacup and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to make two more dishes."
Fu Hai followed him out, "The general can also cook."
Xie Jingmo laughed heartily, "After so many years in the military camp, I have to know everything. You may not know that your Queen Mother loves the sesame cakes I make."
Fu Hai shook his head, "Our Queen Mother?"
Xie Jingmo deliberately raised his voice, "Yes, your Queen Mother, my Zhao Zhao."
Yun Zhao's hand holding the pen paused for a moment, and the ink from the tip of the pen spread across the white paper.
Xie Jingmo was not exaggerating, the cakes he made were indeed excellent.
It is crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and has a nice burnt aroma.
In the past, she would just serve Xie Jingmo to make him happy, and only after repeated requests would he be willing to make something for Yun Zhao to enjoy.
Now, he has taken the initiative.
