Chapter 333: Think Twice Before You Begin
Deputy General Gao muttered, "Yun Zhao is different from you. You have a criminal record."
Xie Jingmo softened his tone instantly.
The next day.
When Yun Zhao went to court and Xie Jingmo showed up, it caused a stir in the court.
The soldiers on the border had a backbone and their backs straightened.
Yun Zhao's eyes were indifferent. She saw Yu Xiang clenching his fists and standing in the court, looking into her eyes without any scruples.
On this day, Prime Minister Yu did not mention the dispute over the crown prince.
After court.
Yu Xiang raised his hand to stop Yun Zhao in the long corridor.
After Yun Zhao left court, he usually liked to walk around by himself instead of riding in a sedan chair.
Yu Xiang stood beside Yun Zhao with a smile, seemingly respectful, but he stepped on Yun Zhao's shadow with every step, his attitude was rude and provocative.
Fu Hai was angry.
He was stopped by Yun Zhao.
After seeing this, Yu Xiang smiled even more provocatively.
"Your Majesty, there are some things I would like to talk to you about from the heart."
Yun Zhao walked forward and said, "You say."
Yu Xiang said with a beaming smile: "Some things are bound to happen, and have you ever thought that your attitude now will determine whether your future life will be easy?"
When Yu Xiang said this, he turned his head and glanced at Yun Zhao.
The latter's eyes were indifferent.
Yu Xiang said, "Some things may seem good on the surface, but they are actually extremely dangerous. Therefore, I am here to advise the Queen Mother to think twice before making any decisions."
Yun Zhao still didn't say anything.
Yu Xiang thought to himself, this person is so patient, no wonder she can sit on the position of empress dowager.
Yu Xiang smiled again, "Empress Dowager, you are going to the Emperor's residence, but you should know that some things are beyond human control. Even if you, Hua Tuo, were still alive, some things would still be difficult to change."
Yun Zhao said calmly, "Really?"
Yu Xiang nodded. "Over the years, I have always admired the Queen Mother, and I still do. You are a wise man. I am thinking of making a deal with you. What do you think?"
Yun Zhao had already reached the little emperor's residence.
She went in without waiting for Yu Xiang to finish speaking.
When Yun Zhao finished giving acupuncture to the little emperor and walked out, Yu Xiang was still waiting at the door. When he saw Yun Zhao, he smiled.
Yun Zhao walked back and said calmly, "Prime Minister Yu is very patient."
Yu Xiang said, "The Queen Mother deserves the patience of this old minister."
"Really?" Yun Zhao looked ahead, walking into the dim sunset. "Then tell me, what kind of deal could have made the powerful Prime Minister Yu wait for me at the door for three hours?"
Yu Xiang chuckled softly, "The deal with the Queen Mother is worth waiting for no matter how long."
"The most important issue at court right now is choosing a crown prince. I wonder who the Queen Mother has her eyes on?"
Yun Zhao's tone was flat. "Prime Minister Yu has great magical powers. Since you already know who I have my eyes on, there's no need to act like a snake here, right? If you have anything to say, it's better to speak directly."
Yu Xiang laughed and said, "What a pleasure!"
"Since the Queen Mother has said so, then I will speak frankly. I think that instead of supporting General Xie to take the throne, it would be better to let Prince Liang take the throne."
"I can promise you that when Prince Liang ascends the throne, you will have the same honors you have now, and you will still be the empress dowager, second only to the emperor. Of course, if you find the harem boring and want to retire, I will definitely pave the way for you. Or, if you want the honors of being an empress dowager and also the wealth of the palace, you can have both."
Yun Zhao looked at Yu Xiang in surprise, "Haha, Yu Xiang, tell me how to have both."
Yu Xiang smiled complacently, "If you want to stay in the palace, you can come back. Then you will be the honorable Queen Mother of the harem. If you want to go back to Liziguai, you can go back. You can come and go freely without any hindrance."
"Of course, the Queen Mother values friendship, and Prince Liang has also taken this into consideration. Prince Liang said that he will not touch any of your men. They are all pillars of the country. Not only will he not touch them, but he will also vigorously support them to repay the Queen Mother's kindness."
"In addition, we will also cherish talents like Deputy General Gao and Deputy General Lin and give them high positions."
Yun Zhao nodded. When Yu Xiang felt that he had arranged everything properly, Yun Zhao asked, "What about Xie Jingmo?"
Yu Xiang was stunned for a moment.
Yun Zhao asked, "I wonder how the wise King Liang will deal with Xie Jingmo?"
Yu Xiang obviously had no prepared answer to this question.
In other words, there was an answer, but he still couldn't figure out what Yun Zhao felt towards Xie Jingmo, so he couldn't speak safely.
He hesitated for a long time.
He slowly raised his eyes, then tentatively said: "This old minister knows that Xie Jingmo has many entanglements with you, and I also understand that you hate Xie Jingmo to the core, but you only cherish him as a talent. If King Liang takes the throne-"
Yu Xiang lowered his eyes.
Then he said, "I will get rid of him for you!"
Yun Zhao knew too well old foxes like Yu Xiang.
He told the truth in a different way.
It’s true that I want Xie Jingmo to die.
In other words, from the moment Prince Liang became the real emperor, the first thing he wanted to get rid of were those princes who posed a threat to him.
Among them, of course, is Xie Jingmo, who poses the greatest threat to him!
Yun Zhao glanced at Yu Xiang calmly, "Really? You got rid of him for me?"
Yu Xiang’s old face turned red and he smiled.
"Yes, apart from this matter, everything else is negotiable. You know, for King Liang, these princes are too threatening, and Xie Jingmo is the most threatening. Therefore, the first thing King Liang did when he came to power was to get rid of Xie Jingmo."
"I am sincere in my cooperation with you, so I will not lie to you about this matter."
Yu Xiang kept calling him "you".
Up to this point, he still seemed very polite.
Yun Zhao twitched his lips. "Well, then tell me, most of the border generals I placed there support Xie Jingmo. Since you want to get rid of Xie Jingmo and wipe out the roots, how are you going to settle those people?"
Yu Xiang was stunned again.
Yun Zhao seized on Yu Xiang's logical flaw and asked, "So, which of your words are true and which are false?"
Yu Xiang's expression gradually changed from the awkward look to a gloomy one.
He stood in the last rays of sunset and said coldly, "Why don't you just focus on your own position? Why do you have to meddle in other people's business?"
The sun sets completely below the horizon.
The palace became cold and dark, without the bustle of the day.
Yun Zhao stood in the darkness and laughed, "But I just like to meddle in other people's business. Yu Xiang, it seems you have chosen the wrong partner."
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he walked towards his palace.
"What about Mu Chengyan?"
Yu Xiang was clearly not giving up and shouted, "Mu Chengyan, don't you care anymore?"
"You should know why he stayed."
"You should also know why he wants to be with me."
"Everything he does now is for you."
"But you're going to abandon him and stand with others?"
