Chapter 448 Long Live
Xie Jingmo on that day.
Like crazy.
Everyone watched as the young new emperor, on his first day on the throne, turned Kyoto upside down like a madman.
He was dressed in yellow, he was noble, handsome and majestic.
But everything was completely shattered after searching in vain late at night.
Xie Jingmo stood on the deserted street, holding Yun Zhao's portrait over and over again, questioning the trembling soldiers watching the city gate.
"Look carefully, have you really never seen this person leave the city gate?"
The soldier shook his head, his eyes filled with confusion.
Deputy General Gao stood to one side and couldn't help but sigh, "Jing Mo, don't ask anymore. You've asked many times. Today is not a special day. There are people coming and going at the city gate. They won't pay much attention. Even if you ask, they won't dare to answer you with certainty."
Xie Jingmo refused to listen, so he took the portrait and rode out on horseback.
Just as he got on his horse, a group of people knelt down in front of him.
The people shouted: "Long live!"
Those people persuaded earnestly.
Those people were like thick city walls that surrounded Yun Zhao in the past and now trapped Xie Jingmo.
Xie Jingmo sat on his horse, gazing at the bamboo forest in the distance for a long, long time...
On the second day after the new emperor ascended the throne, he did not attend court. He just stood at the city gate, waiting for someone who would never come back.
Perhaps he is very clear about this.
But he couldn't help but feel hopeful, and asked with dry lips, "She will come back, right?"
"She's just a little tired. She'll come back later, right?"
"She followed me through seven years of hardship at the frontier. Now that we're rich and powerful, there's no reason for her to leave, right?"
Xie Jingmo's eyes were bloodshot.
That day, the air was extremely hot, but Xie Jingmo only felt a chill in his heart.
Day after day, time passes slowly.
Deputy General Gao finally couldn't bear it anymore and said to Xie Jingmo, "Go back. You haven't eaten or drunk anything for a long time. You know her..."
"Once she made a decision, she never changed it."
"If she decides to leave, she won't look back."
Maybe in the beginning.
Maybe she was talking to Mu Chengyan about Li Ziguai.
Perhaps she was sitting alone on a recliner in the Cining Palace, gazing up at the starry sky for the last time.
Everyone said that Yun Zhao was ambitious, and everyone said that she could not let go of the supreme power.
But she slapped those people in the face and told them the truth.
Yun Zhao would take whatever she wanted, and if she didn't want it one day, she would not care about it even if it was the most powerful person.
Xie Jingmo lowered his head and looked at the road beneath his feet. "This time... she left me behind."
A flash of sadness crossed Xie Jingmo's eyes, and he took a deep breath.
Xie Jingmo raised his eyes.
Opposite them were kneeling on the ground, they were exhausted, they were tottering, some of them wanted to give warning by threatening death.
When Xie Jingmo gritted his teeth and said, "Go back to the palace!", everyone's eyes lit up.
The kneeling horse slowly stood up and shook its tail.
The moment Xie Jingmo walked into the palace, he slowly turned his head and looked deeply in the direction outside the palace gate.
The large army marched for more than an hour, and finally, at the noisy city gate, only the last trace of the summer heat remained.
No one noticed.
In the bamboo forest a hundred meters away from the city gate, there was a small carriage. With a clear and beautiful voice of "Fu Hai, let's go", the carriage swayed and gradually went away with the sound of horse hooves.
Xie Jingmo took care of the government affairs like a madman, working tirelessly.
Chen Meihua was also frantically searching for Mu Chengyan's whereabouts.
Deputy General Gao said:
Xie Jingmo wanted to build the prosperous world that Yun Zhao wanted. He even had a sense of anger, as if to say, if you don't want me, then I don't want you either.
He didn't call anyone to look for Yun Zhao.
He was just sitting there trying hard to achieve what Yun Zhao wanted to achieve.
Deputy General Gao didn't know whether Xie Jingmo actually wanted to get Yun Zhao's praise, or wanted to tell Yun Zhao that he could live well without him.
Chen Meihua was cruel to Mu Chengyan at first.
The kind of ruthlessness that will make you die without a burial place even if I have to spend all my wealth.
Deputy General Gao looked at the two men in a trance.
He got up before three o'clock in the morning and was so brave that he seemed to need no rest at all.
She spent tens of thousands of dollars every month and was known as the woman who made the most money but also the most money-making.
Deputy General Gao and his wife raised the children in their mansion well.
On Yun Zhao’s birthday, she would take the children to the Cining Palace for a chat.
On this day, Yun Zhao's birthday, Qi Cai was wiping tears in the courtyard. "I don't know how the Queen Mother is doing now. She is so weak. Without the top-notch supplements in the palace, I don't know if she can take good care of herself."
Deputy General Gao asked, "What did Xiaoliu say?"
"Him?" Qicai became angry at the mention of this. "He said he knew nothing, threw up his hands, and went to listen to storytellers. Occasionally, when he got drunk, he would come to the Cining Palace to sleep. He was so stubborn that you couldn't get anything out of him."
Deputy General Gao sighed.
Qicai also sighed.
When Vice Admiral Gao arrived with the children, he asked Qicai, "Has Xie Jingmo been here this year?"
Qicai shook his head, "No."
Deputy General Gao sighed again and left with the children.
Time goes by day by day.
The days were peaceful and everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment. Everyone seemed to have forgotten that there was once an amazing empress dowager in the Cining Palace who was capable of making strategic plans.
I also forgot that there was once a regent who was handsome but extremely treacherous.
Everyone is living their own life well.
Only the diligent emperor didn't know whether he was competing with himself or with the one who left.
"Jing Mo," Deputy General Gao yawned, "Now that there's no one around, I just want to ask you, do you want to outlast me or yourself?"
"You've only slept half a day in the past seven days. If you want to die, why don't you just give yourself a quick death?"
"I still want you to live well. What good will it do you if you outlast me?"
Xie Jingmo lowered his head and reviewed the memorials. "If you are sleepy, go back to sleep."
"You are the emperor now. How can I have the nerve to sleep when you don't sleep?" Deputy General Gao collapsed.
The low-level eunuchs could no longer bear it and changed shifts.
Deputy General Gao could no longer open his eyes. "Brother, please go to sleep. Seriously, if you continue to make progress, Yun Zhao won't be able to see you now."
As soon as these words were spoken.
The room fell into a deeper silence.
Deputy General Gao realized belatedly that he had mentioned someone he shouldn't have mentioned.
He opened his eyes and looked at Xie Jingmo.
Xie Jingmo's eyes were light, and his long, curly eyelashes were clearly visible under the candlelight.
He put the memorial in his hand aside and said something in a low voice.
Deputy General Gao didn't hear, so he lowered his head slightly and said, "What did you say?"
