Chapter 483 Confirming that Yun Zhao still exists in this world
Xie Jingmo's feet were grabbed by someone.
He stood at the city gate, looking at the mountains in the distance, his eyes red as he let out a heartbreaking roar, "Is it not okay for me to give up this throne?!"
"My wife was kidnapped, did you know?!"
"The woman I love most in my life, she's gone. Don't beg me, I beg you, please let me go!"
"Whoever wants to sit on this throne can do so. I won't sit on it!"
"If my wife died or was injured, I would never live alone!"
The fiery red sunset illuminated the entire sky. Xie Jingmo broke free from everyone's hands and jumped onto his horse.
He said to the old ministers kneeling on the ground: "I have already betrayed her once, and I swore that I will never betray her again in this life!"
After saying that, Xie Jingmo squeezed the horse's belly and galloped away!
Xie Jingmo and his group ran frantically on the road, but there was no news along the way, and there was no trace of Yun Zhao left.
The closer they got to the border, the colder Xie Jingmo and his group felt.
"Jing Mo, we're almost at the border. Your status is too special to go over there. We've been running like crazy for seven or eight days. How about taking a break?"
Xie Jingmo's heart was in a mess and he was extremely irritable. The calmness that was unique to an emperor was long gone.
Only a look of anxiety remained on his face.
"Yun Zhao would not leave me no clues. Something must have happened!" As Xie Jingmo thought so, his hand holding the horse rein tightened.
Deputy General Gao's expression was also very solemn. If someone was taken out of the border, getting them back would definitely be a very difficult task.
As the wedding date approached, the queen was kidnapped, and she was unable to explain to the people of the world.
"Jing Mo, how about we take a break? Calm down, go to the nearby village to get some water, and think about what to do next?"
Xie Jingmo had no intention of drinking water at all, but the men who followed him were all exhausted, and their lips were cracked due to long-term lack of water.
He waved his hand and said, "Rest here for five minutes. After five minutes, we will set off immediately."
Deputy General Gao hurried to the village.
A moment later.
He hurried back and said to Xie Jingmo, "People in the village said that they saw a woman with a dozen foreigners a few days ago. The woman killed their leader and left in a hurry."
Xie Jingmo was shocked when he heard this, "Then what?"
Deputy General Gao brought the villager over and turned to ask, "And then?"
Seeing the fierce men, the villagers shrank their necks and trembled. "Then... the woman went into the woods. I heard her say she was going back somewhere, but it was too far away, so I can't remember."
"Sir, I know everything. I've told you everything. Please don't kill me."
"Sir, I have old people above me and young children below me, please..."
"Old man, those people are gone, hurry up and get up."
The villager who was kneeling on the ground stood up and asked, "Gone?"
"Leave."
The villager patted the dirt off his knees and said, "I was scared to death."
"Tell me, if they knew you cheated them, would they come back to settle the score with us?"
The villagers held the woman's hand and said, "Hurry up and leave, or you will wait for them to find you. The Bodhisattva saved us, and these burly men with fierce faces must be here to seek revenge on her. How can we repay her with evil? That's why I deliberately pointed them in the wrong direction. Let's go, let's leave quickly."
The woman nodded.
The two left in a hurry.
Xie Jingmo and his friends walked and searched along the way.
We walked all the way to a primeval forest.
They looked up at the towering trees and the eerie road that seemed to have no end.
"Jing Mo! We must have been tricked!"
Wait for them to turn back.
An entire village was missing.
"Jing Mo, what does that mean? Why would they lie to us?" Deputy General Gao was puzzled.
Xie Jingmo's eyes were gloomy. He half squatted down and saw bloodstains on the ground. He calmed down and searched carefully and found the bodies of several foreigners.
"It's Yun Zhao's silver needle." Deputy General Gao shouted excitedly, "Yun Zhao must have escaped!"
"Jing Mo, let's go back quickly. Yun Zhao must have gone back. If we walk faster, maybe we can catch up with her!"
The group hurried back to the capital on fast horses.
A few days later.
Xie Jingmo asked the guard at the city gate, "Is the Queen back?"
The guard at the city gate almost didn't recognize Xie Jingmo. After taking a closer look, he immediately knelt down.
I thought to myself, this doesn't make sense. The ceremony hasn't even taken place yet, so how can she be called the queen?
But he still knelt down and said quickly: "Your Majesty, I have not seen the Queen return to the palace."
That day.
People come and go at the city gate.
Everyone saw that the young king's eyes were red with heartache.
I also saw that this young and rebellious king looked frustrated and heartbroken.
They understood it completely.
This king, who loved his wife more than his kingdom, regarded his wife as his life.
That day, the sky over the entire imperial city was dark.
Everyone stood at the city gate, waiting for the queen to come back.
Day after day.
"Jing Mo, why don't you go back and rest for a while? You've been going back and forth for so many days without closing your eyes. Don't let Yun Zhao come back when you're sick. Yun Zhao is so smart, she will come back safely."
Xie Jingmo looked haggard, and he stared intently into the distance.
He opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice, "How many days has it been?"
Vice General Gao said, "Fifteen days have already passed. Tomorrow..."
It was originally the date set for the wedding.
Xie Jingmo said, "She said that she would definitely come back on the fifteenth day of our wedding. I will pick her up at the city gate."
Deputy General Gao looked at Xie Jingmo, whose eyes were dim, and felt very uncomfortable. He sighed and said, "Then I will inform everyone that the wedding banquet will be postponed. Wait..."
Before he could finish his words, Vice General Gao heard Xie Jingmo say, "No. The wedding banquet will go on as usual!"
Deputy General Gao was shocked. "What?"
Xie Jingmo repeated it again, "I said, the wedding banquet will be held again. She said she would come back, and she will definitely come back. She has never broken her promise to me."
"Jing Mo, but..." Lieutenant General Gao moved his lips.
Now Xie Jingmo is the king.
His wife is the queen.
She is the mother of the nation.
If Yun Zhao doesn't come back tomorrow and the enthronement ceremony goes aground, it will become a laughing stock in the world!
Deputy General Gao looked worried, but Xie Jingmo was extremely determined, "Tell the Ministry of Rites to follow the most grand regulations!"
Deputy General Gao could only go to the Ministry of Rites.
A moment later.
A group of veteran officials hurried over and knelt behind Xie Jingmo. "Your Majesty, Yun Zhao's life and death are uncertain. It is not wise to proceed with the canonization at this time. Can you please hold off on this matter and wait until it is confirmed that Yun Zhao is still alive before holding the canonization ceremony? This would be the safest option!"
