Chapter 83 What do you want?
Yun Zhao didn't know how long he had slept.
I just know that my whole body hurts.
She almost thought she was going to die.
The long knife pierced his chest, he must be dead.
In a daze, she heard Cheng Yi crying.
Yun Zhao wanted to laugh, but when he pulled the wound, before he could feel the pain, he was pulled into the endless darkness again.
Yun Zhao didn't know how long he had been sleeping soundly.
When I woke up, there was a candle burning in the tent, and the faint light was dancing silently in the tent.
"Awake?" A cold voice came from the side.
When Yun Zhao heard the sound, he immediately wanted to continue sleeping.
Xie Jingmo sneered, not in anger, but rather with a hint of helplessness, "Still pretending? What, you're not going to clean up the mess you made? You want to be a hands-off boss?"
Yun Zhao had no choice but to slowly open his eyes.
Xie Jingmo handed the medicine to her mouth and said, "When you wake up, drink it yourself."
Yun Zhao didn't move. She just lay there quietly for a long time.
Xie Jingmo stuffed the medicine into her hand and said, "Don't think about it, you are not dead."
Yun Zhao slowly sat up, drank the medicine, then lay down, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
I waited for a long time before Xie Jingmo came out.
As soon as the person left, Yun Zhao immediately opened his eyes.
She supported herself with her hands and sat up weakly, and asked Cheng Yi who was dozing beside her, "Is Chen Tingting dead?"
Cheng Yi nodded immediately, "Dead, completely dead!"
Yun Zhao was a little worried, "Did you see it with your own eyes?"
Cheng Yi nodded again, "I saw it, and he died immediately."
Yun Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and a feeling of despair appeared in his heart. "Okay, that's worth it."
Cheng Yi, however, didn't think so. "Master, you scared me to death! How could you be so brave? Do you know that the entire military camp was shocked at that time? They were all amazed that you, such a thin and small person, could burst out with such a huge amount of energy all of a sudden. The knife inserted into your body was so long!"
Cheng Yi gestured.
But after saying this, Cheng Yi felt that this was how it should be.
Yun Zhao has always been the one who works the hardest in the military camp.
He strives to be the first in everything, but he loses to Xie Jingmo.
She always wants to be strong.
"How many days have I slept? Has anyone come from the capital?"
Yun Zhao was prepared to be arrested and taken back.
Cheng Yi shook his head, "No."
In fact, after Yun Zhao's dagger pierced Chen Tingting's chest, everyone was shocked and continued with what they were doing. No one screamed.
On the contrary, General Xie, who was always calm and composed, became panicked.
Like I'm afraid of losing someone important.
At first, Cheng Yi thought that person was Chen Tingting.
When Cheng Yi was about to say something, the tent was opened and Xie Jingmo walked in.
Seeing this, Cheng Yi automatically stepped back.
Yun Zhao let out a breath, pulled the wound on his chest, and frowned in pain.
Xie Jingmo was standing in front of her, his tone was calm, but not as harsh as before, "When you wake up, check your own pulse."
Yun Zhao didn't move.
She said, "Xie Jingmo, one person does the work, one person takes the responsibility. If anyone comes from the capital, you hand me over. I killed Chen Tingting, I admit it!"
Xie Jingmo's face turned cold in the dark twilight.
"Do you recognize it?"
When he spoke again, his voice was calm and emotionless.
He wasn't angry, but in his usual calm tone, "How can you recognize it?"
"What can you, a little village girl, recognize?"
"Do you know that you killed the princess that the Queen Mother was about to recognize? Do you know that the capital is now happily preparing for this matter, and the imperial edict granting the marriage will be issued at the same time? Tell me, how will you recognize her?"
"Do you think your life can make up for the pain of the Minister of Revenue losing his daughter?"
"Have I told you before? The Minister of Revenue has a daughter in his old age, and he loves her like the apple of his eye. If you kill his daughter, I will definitely slaughter your entire family."
Yun Zhao fell silent, and after a few seconds, he looked up at Xie Jingmo.
Xie Jingmo sneered, "You didn't listen to me before, and now you look at me like this? Yun Zhao, have I ever told you that I'm tired of you, so it's useless for you to look at me like this..."
Yun Zhao pursed his lips and lowered his head to think of a solution.
Xie Jingmo looked at the top of Yun Zhao's head and frowned angrily.
He said it was useless, and she really didn't say anything.
"Kill me and take me back to report. Tell the capital what happened and perhaps you will be forgiven."
Xie Jingmo narrowed his eyes and looked at Yun Zhao, "I wasted so many medicinal herbs just to save you and then kill you?"
Yun Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked quite helpless.
But it's not as boring as before.
Xie Jingmo glanced at her and said, "Come on, I know you have someone in the capital who can speak a few words for you."
Maybe it really won't bring disaster to my family.
But Xie Jingmo didn't say the last sentence.
"Of course, there are other ways. If you marry me as your concubine, I will take the blame for this matter. I don't think the people in the capital will blame you."
Yun Zhao didn't think much about it and said, "No."
At this time, Deputy General Gao came in from outside the tent. "We have an idea. Last time we defeated the Xiongnu, we signed a ten-year coexistence agreement with them. At that time, their leader admired Yun Zhao very much. Maybe this is how it works? I know their deputy general, so I can send Zhao Zhao over there to hide."
Xie Jingmo frowned, "What kind of crazy idea are you thinking of!"
Deputy General Gao complained, "What should we do? We can't let Zhao Zhao die anyway. If you take the blame for this, the Ministry of Revenue will give you trouble in the future. General, you are far away at the frontier, and you can't offend anyone in the court."
One more thing.
Deputy General Gao didn't say anything.
That is——
They all thought, why would someone as good as Yun Zhao be a concubine?!
She should sit in the position of the main wife with dignity and live a happy life.
Instead of being confined to the inner house and troubled by trivial matters in the back house.
"Let me think about it."
Yun Zhao fell silent.
She didn't know when Deputy General Gao left.
Xie Jingmo stared coldly at Yun Zhao's pale face. "What are you thinking?! I told you, I'll take care of this matter for you. You are being the concubine of a prince like me, and I think it's unfair to you. If it were someone else, I don't know how happy they would be!"
"Three years."
"Three years later, if you still feel wronged, I'll give you a divorce letter and let you go wherever you want."
Xie Jingmo had a look of arrogance on his face. "However, during these three years, don't expect me to do anything for you. You absolutely cannot expect anything from me!"
Yun Zhao pursed his lips.
She had given up expectations.
A few days later.
Yun Zhao felt better and went to find Xie Jingmo.
"Fake death?!" Xie Jingmo narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"
"I can't hide this matter about Chen Tingting. I faked my death, so the people in the capital can't hold me accountable. As for my parents, I'll trouble you, General, to take good care of them. Lieutenant General Lin is also in the capital, so you can just send someone to check on them occasionally."
Deputy General Gao thought this was a good idea.
"It's just right. You can fake your death and stay in the army. We will protect you."
Xie Jingmo's gaze was on Yun Zhao.
Yun Zhao said, "Since I've faked my death, I can't stay in the army. Otherwise, if someone from the capital comes in the future, the entire camp will be implicated by me."
Upon hearing this, Deputy General Gao asked, "So, have you decided to go to the Xiongnu?"
Yun Zhao shook his head. "As long as my family is in the capital, I will be guarding them. The Xiongnu signed a ten-year agreement, but if they change their minds midway, can I still turn against you and attack you? That would be too cruel."
Xie Jingmo looked at Yun Zhao with cold eyes and spoke in a deep voice.
"What do you want?"
