Chapter 92: The general should know clearly that there is no point in speaking it out loud. Isn't it?
Late at night.
Yun Zhao sighed deeply.
She really couldn't stay out of it.
It was she who killed Chen Tingting. If Beijing really wants to investigate, she should take the responsibility.
Yun Zhao went back to the house to pack his luggage.
She didn't have much stuff, and looked like she was ready to leave at any moment.
She didn't dare hope to stay there for long.
This is what Xie Jiajun did.
The same is true in Lincheng.
Today's Liziguai——
The same is true.
She always seemed to be leaving.
Yun Zhao packed his bags, closed the door, and walked to the exit of Liziguai.
Just as he was about to step out.
"Yun Zhao!" Someone called her from behind.
Yun Zhao turned his head and saw Mu Chengyan standing in the night.
There was a warm smile on his face, just like the expression he had yesterday when he agreed with her to go pick lotus pods together.
"where you go?"
"I...something happened."
Mu Chengyan looked at her with his dark eyes directly, "If you leave, will you come back?"
Yun Zhao was silent.
She doesn't like commitment.
What's more, this time when I leave, my life or death is uncertain.
She couldn't commit.
"Do you still remember the story I told you yesterday?"
"You said there were a lot of people around me, but I just didn't let them get close. Yun Zhao, I let you get close, didn't you notice?"
Mu Chengyan's eyes turned red. "You are the only person I have allowed to get close to me in these years. Do you know what this means?"
"I consider you my family."
"You promised me yesterday that you would accompany me to pick lotus seeds next year and every year thereafter. Have you forgotten?"
Yun Zhao pursed his lips.
She doesn't like to say sorry.
Because she knew that saying sorry wouldn't do anything.
But at this moment, she didn't know what to say except sorry.
"sorry."
The light in Mu Chengyan's eyes gradually faded away, and finally only darkness remained.
It's like I won't trust anyone anymore.
"You must leave?" The smile disappeared from Mu Chengyan's face.
He stared at Yun Zhao's face, his tone as cold as ice, "I've said before, if you're a traitor, you can only go in and not out. Even if it's you, you can't break the rules."
Yun Zhao sighed, his thin body looking frail in the moonlight.
"I must leave today."
Mu Chengyan's face was fierce, "Let's see if you can get away!"
Mu Chengyan attacked Yun Zhao.
Yun Zhao stood in the fierce palm wind coming from the dark side, neither dodging nor evading.
If Mu Chengyan had not stopped in time, Yun Zhao would have been crippled if not dead.
"Why don't you do it!" Mu Chengyan looked at Yun Zhao fiercely!
Yun Zhao said standing straight, "I won't fight with my friends."
Mu Chengyan was stunned for a moment, then sarcastically raised his lips, "Stop trying to fool me with these nice words! Today, either you die or I die."
Yun Zhao looked at Mu Chengyan and said, "Take care. I'm leaving now."
Mu Chengyan was furious, "Do you think I dare not attack you?"
Yun Zhao walked out without saying a word.
"Yun Zhao!"
"If you leave again, you and I will be enemies!"
"Did you hear that?"
Yun Zhao stepped out of Liziguai and walked into the vast night.
We had only walked a few miles.
Yun Zhao met Xie Jingmo who had turned back.
"Where... are you going?" Yun Zhao watched Xie Jingmo turn his head.
Xie Jingmo walked straight forward, and Yun Zhao followed behind him.
Just like the past seven years.
In the darkness, Xie Jingmo slowly curled his lips.
"Why, don't you care about the lives of those people?" Xie Jingmo was a little proud. Yun Zhao was really hard to persuade. Ever since he exchanged her for five thousand pieces of armor, Yun Zhao had never given him a good face and always went against him in everything.
Tonight, the anger that was pent up in my chest suddenly dissipated!
Yun Zhao tightened the bag on his shoulder and asked, "General, what did you do just now?"
Xie Jingmo's sneer sounded cold and lonely in the quiet night. "What do you think it is? What? Do you think I came back to find you? Yun Zhao, stop flattering yourself. Who do you think you are?"
Yun Zhao didn't want to argue any more.
"Three months," Yun Zhao said, "If things settle down, I'll leave."
Xie Jingmo frowned.
"It's not good for me to stay here for long as I'm already dead."
If things remain calm after three months, then everything should be fine.
She was unable to show up as Yun Zhao, nor was she willing to be a so-called concubine.
After all, she doesn't belong to the bustling Kyoto.
"Whatever you want." Xie Jingmo said coldly.
The two of them hurried on their way in the night.
And at this moment, Li Ziguai.
"Boss, are you just going to let Yun Zhao go like that?! We in Liziguai don't have this kind of free-to-come rule! In Liziguai, once you leave, you can't come back! This is a hard-coded rule!"
There was a cold look in Mu Chengyan's eyes.
He took out a painting from his arms and said, "I heard that the new emperor is selecting concubines. Put this painting among the paintings of the concubines."
Isn’t Xie Jingmo awesome?
Then let’s see, who is more powerful, Xie Jingmo or the current emperor!
"What if Xie Jingmo married Yun Zhao before the elective?"
Mu Chengyan sneered, "Do you think it's so easy to get into Prince Xie's house? Besides, with Yun Zhao's temper, he won't be willing to be a servant."
"What if Xie Jingmo marries Yun Zhao as his princess?"
Mu Chengyan snorted, "Then I'll find the Minister of Revenue and tell him the real reason for Chen Tingting's death. Xie Jingmo is a smart man. Going against the entire Ministry of Revenue and its cronies for a woman is a losing proposition. How could someone as shrewd as Xie Jingmo do that?"
After hearing this, the people below immediately gave a thumbs up.
Mu Chengyan looked at the dark twilight.
Anyone who betrays him will die in the end!
Yun Zhao’s only way out is to return here!
As they approached the military camp, Xie Jingmo suddenly stopped.
"I'll give you one last chance. Come back with me and tell me you're the concubine I brought back from the frontier," Xie Jingmo said coldly. "After three years, you can leave whenever you want!"
Yun Zhao looked at the road ahead and said, "Don't worry, General. I've lived on the frontier for seven years, and I can hide in the hustle and bustle of the capital for three months. I can still do it."
Xie Jingmo's irritable feeling came back again.
"Yun Zhao, your parents never told you back home that greed is the worst thing to do!"
Yun Zhao didn't say anything at first.
I endured it for a while.
"Besides, what's wrong with three years? You've already made it through seven years, so what's the point of these three years? You'll be fine after three years, so why are you throwing tantrums at me?"
Even if Yun Zhao could endure it, he couldn't bear it anymore.
"Xie Jingmo, it's not your turn to say how my parents raised me."
"Besides, ever since you traded me for five thousand pieces of armor, I no longer have any greedy thoughts towards you."
"Besides, am I greedy? Or is the general greedy?"
Xie Jingmo looked into Yun Zhao's eyes coldly, "What do you mean?"
Yun Zhao scoffed. "General, you should know exactly what I mean. There's no point in saying it out loud, right?"
Xie Jingmo was angry!
He grabbed Yun Zhao and said, "Tell me what I should know!"
