Chapter 292: Muchengyan
Xie Jingmo smiled warmly.
Just like when she first went to the military camp.
Yun Zhao's desire for revenge disappeared at this moment.
She thought...
You will feel happy.
She also wanted Xie Jingmo to experience the feeling of being abandoned.
But the moment has finally come.
But she felt that it didn't seem to make any sense.
The feeling of double reward in my heart was suppressed by a very strange feeling.
Yun Zhao looked at the man in the long gown who seemed to be pushed by someone behind him.
Yun Zhao saw him stagger twice before he stood firm.
Then, he was urged to walk forward quickly.
Then the gray color gradually disappeared into the distance.
Deputy General Gao was almost crying, "Yun Zhao, are you really willing to do this?"
Yun Zhao remained silent.
Deputy General Gao said aggrievedly, "No wonder they say women are more cruel than men. When you didn't go to Lincheng to treat the plague, Xie Jingmo went to the military camp gate every day to see if you had returned. Now you are so straightforward and just sent him away."
Deputy General Gao said this and took something out from his arms.
"He gave this to you."
Yun Zhao lowered his head and saw a small bulging bag in Deputy General Gao's hand.
"He said you like to eat lotus seeds, but you don't like to peel them yourself. When you left, you sat in the dungeon and peeled them for a long time."
At this point, Deputy General Gao lowered his voice, "We're about to leave, but he's still thinking about your favorite food. I called him stupid, but he said that he might not have the chance to be stupid in the future."
Yun Zhao looked at the small bag of lotus seeds for a long time without taking it.
A moment later.
Yun Zhao passed by Deputy General Gao, and the lotus seeds in Deputy General Gao's hand were touched and fell to the ground.
Deputy General Gao was stunned for a moment.
He bent down to pick it up, then glanced from afar at the place where Xie Jingmo had left.
But already——
I can't see anything.
Daqing kept his word and sent Mu Chengyan back intact three days later.
Yun Zhao went to pick him up in person.
Vice Admiral Gao immediately asked anxiously, "Did you see Jing Mo when you came back? Is he okay?"
Mu Chengyan said, "He doesn't look well. He seems sick and his face is a little pale. The people escorting him are resentful because of the previous war. It seems that they didn't have any dry food along the way. I saw that his cheeks were thin, but when I spoke to him, he was in good spirits."
Upon hearing this, Deputy General Gao immediately became anxious, "Jing Mo was already injured, and now he's traveling such a long distance, it's naturally not good!"
Mu Chengyan continued, "After they released me, Daqing took over Xie Jingmo and headed northwest together. Daqing asked Xie Jingmo to get on his carriage, but he seemed reluctant to get on and continued walking. Then they walked away."
When Deputy General Gao heard this, he immediately turned to look at Yun Zhao.
"Queen Mother, now that Mu Chengyan is back, I'll go get Jing Mo back!"
Yun Zhao's eyes were gloomy.
Deputy General Gao was very anxious.
Mu Chengyan glanced at Yun Zhao, then turned to Deputy General Gao and said, "Don't be impatient. Let her think about it first. This is a matter of great importance related to a war. It is not something that can be decided on the spur of the moment."
Deputy General Gao was furious. "Now you are the one who was exchanged back, so you say that. Besides, what qualifications do you have to say that? You are the one with vested interests!"
Yun Zhao frowned, "Deputy General Gao! You've overstepped your bounds!"
Deputy General Gao left angrily.
Yun Zhao sighed and said to Mu Chengyan, "You must be tired. I'll take you back to rest."
Mu Chengyan nodded and followed Yun Zhao into the palace.
He moved into the room that Xie Jingmo used to live in and used the four treasures of the study that Xie Jingmo used to live in.
Deputy General Gao almost bit his teeth to pieces at the door.
Fu Hai advised, "The Queen Mother has her own plans. Deputy General Gao, calm down."
Deputy General Gao truly loved Xie Jingmo, and he gnashed his teeth, "How can I stay calm? If I wait any longer, Xie Jingmo will die in a foreign land, and Mu Chengyan will enter the house and have a wedding night!"
No matter how much of a bastard Xie Jingmo was before.
After all, he is my brother!
Now, there are men outside who are coveting my brother’s wife. How can I tolerate this?
Yun Zhao sat in the hall reviewing memorials, looking at Deputy General Gao, who was as restless as an ant. "If you really can't sit still, go back and rest for a few days. You keep jumping around here like a grasshopper, and it's getting on my nerves."
Deputy General Gao sat down in the hall and asked, "When are you going to take people to rescue Jing Mo? Ten days have passed. It takes a month to travel from the capital to the Xiongnu, and we are already halfway through. Do you have any plans to rescue him?"
Yun Zhao is now in a high position, and he hides his emotions very deeply, making it impossible for others to see through him.
Deputy General Gao was extremely anxious.
Yun Zhao put down the pen in his hand, propped up his chin and looked at Deputy General Gao, "Don't you have anything else to do? If you are really bored, I have eaten all the lotus seeds. Go to the lotus pond and pick me some fresh ones."
When Xie Jingmo was around, she didn't have to explain this matter.
The bowl is always full of lotus seeds.
Now, it has only been a few days since the talented person left, and no one has replenished the lotus seeds in the empty bowl.
Mu Chengyan sat in the hall, looking at the empty bowl beside Yun Zhao, and said with a smile: "I'll pick it for you."
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "No, I was just teasing him. I won't eat it."
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he lowered his head and continued to read the memorial.
Mu Chengyan's eyes fell lightly on Yun Zhao's delicate profile, with a complicated look in his eyes.
After dinner.
Yun Zhao took a walk as usual.
When Mu Chengyan walked over, Yun Zhao stared at a certain place in a daze.
"What are you looking at?"
Yun Zhao raised his eyes and smiled when he heard this. "That stone, Xie Jing and Deputy General Gao were bored and carved something on it. Two grown men were competing to see who could carve the biggest words."
Mu Chengyan was stunned when he heard this.
The smile on his lips seemed forced.
He said, "Oh," and then said calmly, "Really?"
The two walked over.
Mu Chengyan lowered his head and saw that there were indeed many words written on the big stone.
Yun Zhao.
Lin Jiaojiao.
Lin Jiaojiao is the name of Deputy General Gao’s wife.
Yun Zhao said, "These two have nothing to do in the palace, so they write everywhere every day. The stones around the lotus pond are almost covered with calligraphy. Fu Hai always stops them, saying that it would not look good if outsiders come."
Mu Chengyan nodded, "Xie Jingmo, you have always been very free and easy."
Yun Zhao smiled lightly, "When I'm not serious, I'm like a child."
Mu Chengyan looked at Yun Zhao again. The smile on her lips was faint, but she looked quite happy.
"Zhao Zhao," Mu Chengyan didn't want to continue this topic, so he said cryptically: "Your relationship with Xie Jingmo is better now than before."
Yun Zhao: "Really?"
Mu Chengyan nodded, but was unwilling to point it out.
That kind of secret indulgence hidden in the dark made Mu Chengyan feel very uncomfortable.
"It's better than before," Mu Chengyan nodded with a smile, "But it's also true that many emotions will fade over time, including hatred. But this is good, Zhao Zhao, I hope you will always be this happy."
Mu Chengyan raised his eyes and looked at Yun Zhao with deep affection in his eyes.
