Chapter 343 You Don’t Trust Me
Of course he knew Yun Zhao had been having a hard time recently, but—
He has no choice!
Xie Jingmo stood up and left quickly.
Fu Hai was afraid that Yun Zhao would be sad, so he hurried into the Yangxin Palace to persuade her.
As soon as I walked in, I heard Yun Zhao say, "Bring me the plate of edamame on the table."
Fu Hai hurried to get it.
Yun Zhao narrowed his eyes and picked up an edamame.
Fu Hai groaned, "Queen Dowager, you still have the mind to eat this? Hurry and think of a solution. The little emperor is in danger. If General Xie doesn't become the emperor, then you, the Queen Dowager, will be in great danger. What will happen if Prince Liang becomes the emperor in the future?"
Yun Zhao supported his head and looked at the invigilation system spread out on the table.
"How can this be done? I am the Empress Dowager. If it were an Emperor, I would also be the Empress Dowager. Is there any Emperor who could depose the Empress Dowager?"
Fu Hai then asked, "General Xie, are you not worried at all about not becoming emperor?"
Yun Zhao said, "Why are you in such a hurry? I'm not the emperor." This was the truth. Yun Zhao just felt that Xie Jingmo was suitable before, but if he didn't want to, Yun Zhao wouldn't force him.
Besides, it’s not a good deal if you’re the one who’s always trying to get what you want.
She doesn't want to put her face in front of a cold butt.
If you don’t like being an emperor, then forget it. Love whoever you want.
Yun Zhao ate some edamame and said to Fu Hai, "Publish this invigilation system and tell the people below to follow it from now on."
Fu Hai said, "Okay." He leaned over and picked up the document on the table, and the result was—
Just picked it up.
Yun Zhao frowned.
She said in a deep voice, "Wait."
Fu Hai turned around in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Yun Zhao looked at the words on the document and fell into deep silence.
this--
It’s not Xie Jingmo’s handwriting.
He went to court the next day.
Xie Jingmo has been waiting for Yun Zhao to issue a new invigilation system.
As a result, when the court was dismissed, Yun Zhao had not yet been issued.
Xie Jingmo had no choice but to go to Yun Zhao and ask, "Is there anything else that needs to be improved?"
Yun Zhao nodded, "Yes."
Xie Jingmo immediately became nervous, "What?"
Yun Zhao added, "I'll ask someone to take a look at it later. Once everything is settled, I'll make it public. Don't worry."
Yun Zhao said, "Don't worry," and five days passed.
Xie Jingmo came to Cining Palace to find Yun Zhao again.
It was raining that day, and Yun Zhao was sitting in the pavilion reading a book. He was not surprised to see Xie Jingmo coming.
Just said: "What's up?"
"Can you tell me about the new invigilation system? I'll see if there are any changes that need to be made."
Yun Zhao looked at the words in the book and said, "No need. I will ask someone to check it out later. Don't worry."
There is no rush for this sentence, it will take another five days.
Xie Jingmo was so anxious that he got angry.
He hurried into the Cining Palace.
Fu Hai said that the Queen Mother went to the city gate tower.
Xie Jingmo hurried over again. The wind was strong that day, and Yun Zhao's clothes were blown high.
Yun Zhao is thin and looks worrying, as if he could be blown away by the next gust of wind.
"It's so windy here, how did you get up here?"
Yun Zhao didn't look at him, but just looked at the scenery in the distance.
"Go back, don't catch a cold."
Yun Zhao then slowly spoke, "Is there something wrong?"
Xie Jingmo was silent for a moment, "Yes, yes."
Yun Zhao said, "You speak."
Xie Jingmo was concerned about the strong wind here, but Yun Zhao was always persistent, so he had to call a soldier back to ask Fu Hai to bring a cloak over.
Then he said——
"Why can't you talk to me about the invigilation system?"
"I am the chief examiner and the one who drafted the invigilation system. I can implement this matter the fastest."
"You don't trust me."
As soon as these words were spoken.
There was a strong wind.
Yun Zhao narrowed her eyes, then she slowly turned around and looked into Xie Jingmo's eyes.
"Don't you trust me too?"
Xie Jingmo was about to retort, but stopped.
He understood that Yun Zhao wanted him to experience the feeling of not being trusted.
He wanted to explain, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say.
So, he stopped where he was.
Yun Zhao smiled briefly.
"We are no longer in that kind of close relationship, but I always feel that there will never be any lies between us."
"Xie Jingmo, even though I hated you, I can't deny that I always regarded you as a comrade I could trust."
"Now, we don't even have that trust anymore."
"I'm actually a little sad."
Hearing this, Xie Jingmo's heart seemed to be grabbed by a hand.
Yun Zhao smiled again, "But I also think this is a very normal thing. The world is so big, and the fate between people will eventually come to an end." Fu Hai handed the cloak over, and Yun Zhao put it on. His thin little face was wrapped in it, making him look particularly small.
It was just like when Yun Zhao first entered the military camp.
Yun Zhao said, "Okay, now that we've come to this, from now on, we'll be the Empress Dowager and the courtiers. From now on, when you meet me, don't call me by my name. Remember to call me Empress Dowager."
Yun Zhao tightened his cloak and walked away.
Xie Jingmo stood there, Yun Zhao's words, "I'm actually a little sad," and Yun Zhao's drooping eyes in disappointment kept repeating in his mind.
Yun Zhao is not a delicate girl.
Xie Jingmo almost didn't hear her say the word "sad".
Now he spoke.
It's really sad.
Xie Jingmo was so distressed that he could hardly breathe as he watched Yun Zhao walking further and further away.
The soldier on guard saw this, walked towards Xie Jingmo, and asked with concern, "General, you look very bad, do you need help to get down?"
That's a polite way of putting it.
How could a great general who protects the country need help when he goes to the next city gate?
So when the soldier heard Xie Jingmo say, "Yes," he was stunned for a long time.
When Xie Jingmo was helped down the city gate, Yun Zhao had already left.
He walked slowly on the long street, and every time he took a step outside, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
He can't walk anymore.
He stopped at the door and looked into the palace.
My eyes turned red with discomfort.
Yun Zhao returned to the palace, and Fu Hai said, "Empress Dowager, your birthday is in five days. Previously, you said we shouldn't have a big celebration, but this year the Ministry of Rites said that the country is at peace, so would you like to have a big celebration for everyone?"
Yun Zhao said, "No, just a bowl of plain noodles will be fine."
The people from the Ministry of Rites left in disappointment.
If the people at the top are too frugal, the people below will have nothing to gain.
Yun Zhao has been on the throne for five years and has never celebrated his birthday.
On his birthday, Yun Zhao came back from court and Fu Hai went into the kitchen to cook a bowl of longevity noodles for him.
Deputy General Gao's wife sent over a piece of embroidery.
Lieutenant General Lin sent some food that he usually cooked at home.
Mu Chengyan sent a portion of chestnuts grown in Liziguaili.
Yun Zhao smiled at all his subordinates.
These things are not expensive, but they are all thoughtful gestures, and Yun Zhao has never been someone who would refuse other people's kindness.
until--
Xie Jingmo stood at the door and said to Fu Hai, "The Queen Mother refuses to see me. Please take this map of mountains and seas in for me. She will like it."
