Chapter 283 Fu Hai means...
Yun Zhao didn't eat a single bite of the sesame cake made by Xie Jingmo.
The hot pancake was placed on the plate, but eventually it lost all its heat and the dough became dry.
Deputy General Gao put a handful of it in his mouth and almost knocked out his teeth.
Deputy General Gao glanced at Yun Zhao, who had a calm expression, and whispered, "Da Qing said that we're leaving the day after tomorrow. So, will Jing Mo...come with us?"
Yun Zhao paused for a moment, then looked up at Deputy General Gao. "Isn't this already decided? What's the matter? Do you have any questions?"
At this moment, Deputy General Gao felt that Yun Zhao was as cold and indifferent as Xie Jingmo who had wanted to exchange Yun Zhao for 5,000 pieces of armor.
Deputy General Gao withdrew.
Xie Jingmo stood at the door, staring eagerly.
"Didn't you eat the cake?"
Deputy General Gao shook his head.
"Have you asked for me about going to the Xiongnu?"
Deputy General Gao said silently: "I asked, I see Yun Zhao is determined to marry you, you -"
Deputy General Gao raised his eyes and looked at the deep disappointment on Xie Jingmo's face.
"How about we think of another way?"
Xie Jingmo fell silent.
What method?
He shook his head.
sigh.
He has run out of ideas.
"I have a way!" Guo Ai Ai came over from behind the two of them with a smile on her face.
Guo Ai Ai had been stupid for many years, but now she is awake, her eyes are bright, like a clear moon.
Xie Jingmo and Deputy General Gao looked at Guo Aiai, "What's the solution?"
Guo Ai Ai smiled, and her eyes suddenly became meaningful.
"Cousin, I was engaged to you before. If we had sex at this time..."
Seeing Xie Jingmo frown, Guo Aiai immediately said, "Don't get me wrong, I just want to have sex. As long as we have sex and announce the previous engagement to the public, Daqing won't be able to take you away. After the people leave, we can explain it to the outside world, isn't that fine?"
Guo Ai Ai's eyes were pure, and she smiled gently, "Cousin, my father often told me that it was because of you that the Queen Mother saved me. My life is yours, so don't think too much about it, just do as I say."
"I'll help you explain everything to the outside world later, so you can stay in Kyoto, okay?"
Xie Jingmo originally thought that Guo Aiai had some good idea.
After hearing this, his expression paled.
Then he smiled softly and said, "Thank you, Ai Ai, I'll think about it."
Guo Aiai left with a smile.
After the others had gone far away, Xie Jingmo closed his eyes. Deputy General Gao whispered to Xie Jingmo, "That's a solution."
Xie Jingmo clicked his tongue.
Deputy General Gao was furious. "What? You're still not happy? Guo Ai Ai is still a virgin after all. She likes you now. Although she probably won't clear up the matter for you later if you do what she says, you don't have to go to the Xiongnu anymore, right? And you get a beautiful wife for free? Isn't that good?"
Deputy General Gao glanced at Xie Jingmo's face and pursed his lips. "Why do you always get such good things? Daqing likes you, Guo Aiai likes you too. If one of them liked me, I could have saved myself ten lifetimes of hard work."
Xie Jingmo made a bitter face and glanced in the direction of Yun Zhao Palace.
Deputy General Gao hooked Xie Jingmo's shoulder and said, "Alright, stop looking. The guy inside has a heart harder than stone. Don't count on him."
That night, Xie Jingmo waited until very late before going to Yun Zhao's bedroom.
When we arrived, Yun Zhao was already asleep.
He pushed open the window and jumped in, then tiptoed to the bed.
Yun Zhao's breathing was even, and his beautiful face was peaceful and quiet.
Xie Jingmo thought a lot on the way here.
What she wanted most was to make Yun Zhao promise her in bed.
Similar to——
Keep him here.
Similar to——
Even if he went to the Xiongnu, he was absolutely forbidden to do the same thing with other men as he had done with me.
But at this moment, when I walked to the bed.
He seemed to not want to do anything.
He just wanted to take a good, quiet look at her.
Xie Jingmo himself found it strange.
He has known Yun Zhao for many years and has seen all her looks.
Coquettish.
Playful.
Calm.
Open-minded.
Mercenary.
Cruel and ruthless.
…
But even so, she is still the only one in his heart.
The first glance in the past years, now there is no regret in life and death.
Xie Jingmo sat on the floor, his back against the bed, and sighed softly, "If you don't want me, what can I do?"
The room was quiet for a long time.
Then, Xie Jingmo chuckled helplessly, "I can't help it, not at all."
"Zhao Zhao, do you really want me to leave?"
Yun Zhao was asleep, so no one would respond to Xie Jingmo.
Xie Jingmo was not sure either. If Yun Zhao was awake at this moment, would she give him an answer?
He doesn't know.
The sky gradually brightened.
When the first ray of morning sun fell on the ground, Xie Jingmo stood up and left quietly.
When the sunlight covered the earth, Yun Zhao slowly opened his eyes.
She looked at the snow-white bed curtains and blinked.
Qicai came in with water for washing up, "Queen Mother, it's time to get up."
Yun Zhao is always busy during the day.
The new emperor was in poor health, and more than a dozen imperial doctors were attending to him every day to keep him alive.
After Yun Zhao finished the matters at hand and went to see the new emperor, he walked along the corridor.
Fu Hai remained silent all the way.
Yun Zhao tilted his head to glance at Fu Hai. "Isn't he usually the most talkative? Why was he so quiet today? What happened?"
Fu Hai raised his eyes in a daze.
When Xie Jingmo left in the morning, Fu Hai had just woken up. He watched Xie Jingmo's figure disappear in the palace. For some reason, he felt a little bit reluctant.
Facing Yun Zhao's question, Fu Hai bit his lip and said, "Fu Hai dare not say."
Yun Zhao nodded and didn't ask.
When she returned to her palace, she whispered, "Just tell me what you have to say. Is it so difficult to say what you have hidden?"
Fu Hai lowered his head even lower.
"What Fu Hai said is extremely treasonous, so I don't know how to respond."
Yun Zhao looked at him.
Fu Hai lowered his head even lower and arched his back, looking very humble.
“There are some things that Fu Hai can only treat as a joke and say to Empress Dowager Yu.”
"The new emperor's body... was already sick in the womb, and was frightened when he was born. He has been carefully cared for over the years, but he has no signs of health.
Even if you personally performed acupuncture, there was no improvement. Guo Ai Ai only had five acupuncture sessions and she was already visibly better. This shows that bad things that are carried over from the womb are ultimately difficult to cure."
Yun Zhao frowned, "What do you want to say?"
Fu Hai is different from others.
She is the most defenseless person around Yun Zhao.
Standing in a high position, he saw and remembered every move in the palace.
Unlike Xie Jingmo and Deputy General Gao, both men who came out of the battlefield only knew how to use brute force.
He has brains.
Extremely lively.
"Fu Hai means..."
"The new emperor is in poor health. I've asked the imperial physician, and he's worried about whether he can survive the next few years. Speaking of which, I'm going to say something truly outrageous. If the new emperor isn't careful..."
Fu Hai paused skillfully, then looked up and met Yun Zhao's gaze.
