Chapter 323 Did you know that the dead cannot be resurrected?
Fu Hai was slow to react for a long time because of Xie Jingmo's matter-of-fact tone.
He felt something was wrong.
But everyone's reactions were so strange that he felt like he was the one who was wrong.
Fu Hai stood aside, his mind in a mess.
When Xie Jingmo and the others were about to leave, Fu Hai slowly asked, "General Xie, the dead cannot be resurrected. Do you know this?"
Xie Jingmo nodded, "I know."
Upon hearing this, Fu Hai looked at Xie Jingmo in a daze.
I felt a spontaneous admiration for Xie Jingmo.
"Thank you, General, for your righteousness!"
Xie Jingmo: “?”
Long after Xie Jingmo left, Fu Hai was still sighing, "General Xie's selfless sacrifice is admirable!"
Yun Zhao turned and looked at Fu Hai, "What do you mean?"
Fu Hai clenched his fists and stood beside Yun Zhao. "Queen Mother, life is too short. General Xie is a really good man. You must treat him well in the remaining days."
Yun Zhao was confused. "He's eating and drinking my food, and I'm not treating him well?"
Fu Hai immediately shook his head and poked his heart with his finger, "It has to come from the heart."
Then, Yun Zhao saw Fu Hai eagerly going to serve Xie Jingmo.
Yun Zhao: “…”
Outside the palace gate.
Mu Chengyan stood in the pavilion and looked into the distance.
Yu Xiang came over, smiling, "Why? Yun Zhao didn't agree to go with you?"
"I've already told you that Yun Zhao is now the Queen Mother, in a high position of power. How could she possibly go back to Lizigui with you and become a village girl?"
Mu Chengyan's eyes were cold, "She is not someone who covets power."
"Really? Then why didn't she go with you?"
Mu Chengyan had no interest in talking about faith with such a person, he wouldn't understand.
"Are the mother and daughter in the dungeon still obedient?" Mu Chengyan asked.
Yu Xiang nodded. "Honestly, I've never encountered anything like this before. I was so scared. The woman cried while holding the child at first, but when she found out she was pregnant, she stopped crying. Isn't that funny?"
Mu Chengyan's eyes flickered. "Let's wait and see what Xie Jingmo and Yun Zhao choose over the next few days. If Yun Zhao is really willing to go with me, how did you capture this mother and daughter? How do you release them to me?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiang smiled and nodded, "Okay, there's no need for you to explain it specifically."
Mu Chengyan left for a long time.
The person next to Yu Xiang asked, "Yu Xiang, if we're going to release them, shouldn't we give them some food? It's been two days and two nights. The older one is pregnant, and the younger one is old enough to eat. Don't let them starve to death later. It would be hard to explain."
Yu Xiang smiled grimly, "It's their bad luck to starve to death. If Yun Zhao really leaves with Mu Chengyan in the future, then she will not be the Queen Mother. The first thing she does is kill her comrades who were with her at the border, except for the foundation she has established in the court over the years! By then, will I still be afraid of a woman like her?
If Yun Zhao doesn't leave with Mu Chengyan in the end, then Mu Chengyan will naturally kill them without us having to do anything. So for now, all you have to do is keep them under guard and make sure Yun Zhao's men don't find the dungeon. The rest is up to you."
The subtext of this sentence is.
It doesn't matter whether people are dead or alive.
The important thing is that Yun Zhao’s people don’t let the body find it.
Mu Chengyan thought the same as Yu Xiang.
Even if Yun Zhao would not kill Xie Jingmo, he would not go back with him easily.
Therefore, it will take a long time to complete the process.
But unexpectedly.
The next day, when leaving court, Fu Hai stopped Mu Chengyan on the road.
"You said... Yun Zhao wants to see me?" Mu Chengyan hadn't reacted yet. He thought that even if Yun Zhao was in such a difficult situation and had to make a choice, he must have been struggling with it for many days. "So soon?"
Fu Hai straightened his back, his face expressionless. "Fast? I thought the Regent wanted it faster."
Mu Chengyan didn't care that Fu Hai called him "I".
He only said: "Yun Zhao came to me, have you made a decision?"
Fu Hai walked forward, dust settling on his arms, his expression cold, "The Queen Mother is wise. She doesn't need to tell me what she wants to do, so how would I know?"
Mu Chengyan looked at Fu Hai's back.
I feel that Fu Hai is particularly irritable today.
Arriving at Yun Zhao's palace, Fu Hai raised his hand and said, "Please wait here for a moment."
Mu Chengyan nodded. He habitually walked to Yun Zhao's desk to see what was written in the memorials submitted that day.
Before, Yun Zhao let him watch as he pleased.
He was just about to walk over and pick up a book when suddenly, someone stood in front of him.
Mu Chengyan looked at Fu Hai in front of him.
"Is there something?" Mu Chengyan was not willing to indulge Fu Hai's temperament, but simply for Yun Zhao's sake, he didn't want to argue with him too much.
However, Fu Hai's move made Mu Chengyan feel a little annoyed.
His tone became cold and his eyes became cold.
"Regent, this is the imperial study. The things on the desk are all important to the Queen Mother. No one is allowed to look at them without the Queen Mother's permission!" Fu Hai's tone was also very heavy, and there was a sense of confrontation.
Mu Chengyan found it funny.
A rootless eunuch dares to be so rude to me!
He narrowed his eyes and looked from top to bottom, and a sense of oppression immediately came over him.
"Do you still know who is the master and who is the servant?" Mu Chengyan asked coldly.
Fu Hai said, "Of course I know. I am the Queen Mother's servant. No matter how useless I am, it is not someone else's turn to teach me a lesson!"
Mu Chengyan sneered and slowly moved his hand towards his lower back.
Mu Chengyan does not carry heavy weapons, but everyone knows that he has a soft whip tied around his waist, and whenever it is unsheathed, blood will be drawn.
Fu Hai stood there ready to die.
Mu Chengyan's hand grabbed the handle of the whip.
As soon as Yun Zhao entered the room, she saw this scene. While Mu Chengyan was gathering strength on the back of his hand, she spoke first, "Fu Hai, I'm thirsty. Go down and make me a cup of plum tea."
Fu Hai lowered his head and said, "Yes."
After Fu Hai finished speaking, he walked out. Yun Zhao looked at him and saw that his hands, which were placed beside his legs, were shaking.
But his back was straight.
Yun Zhao sat down and said calmly, "Prince Regent, this is my palace, do you know that?"
Mu Chengyan also felt that he had lost control a little just now.
But Fu Hai's disrespectful attitude is really annoying!
Just one step away.
If Yun Zhao had come in a step later.
The soft whip at his waist would wrap around Fu Hai's fragile neck.
In just one second, Fu Hai's head will fall to the ground!
Mu Chengyan lowered his head, his tone showing no remorse. He lightly avoided the topic, "Queen Dowager, you called me?"
Yun Zhao's expression was cold. "Yes, Deputy General Gao's wife and daughter have always lived in seclusion and have never seen a big scene. They must be very frightened by your sudden kidnapping. I need to confirm that they are still alive."
