Chapter 98 Tell Me About It
Upon hearing this, Xie Jingmo turned around and looked at Deputy General Gao solemnly.
Then, he sneered, "What a joke!"
Vice Admiral Gao was silent for a moment. "Really? Then why would the General go through such a hassle to change the portrait? Yun Zhao is right. If she really enters the palace, Chen Tingting's matter will also be settled. Isn't that perfect?"
Xie Jingmo's expression was cold and serious.
Deputy General Gao said, "Why don't you dare admit it? You just fell in love with Yun Zhao."
Xie Jingmo said with a look of sarcasm, "I like Yun Zhao. If I really liked her, I wouldn't have traded her for five thousand pieces of armor."
This is a dead end.
It is also Yun Zhao’s heart knot.
It was as if once this matter was brought to light, Xie Jingmo's heart was laid out before everyone.
Xie Jingmo was born into a royal family and he is more clear-headed than anyone else.
There will be no ending for him and Yun Zhao.
That night, Xie Jingmo did not return home.
When Yun Zhao was sitting in the yard admiring the flowers, someone was standing in the distance looking at her.
She looked over and saw a woman.
She had willow-shaped eyebrows, an oval face, and was frail and delicate, but she was wearing servant's clothes.
Seeing Yun Zhao looking over, the person walked closer.
"Hello Miss Yun, my name is Sheng Cui, you can call me Xiao Cui."
Yun Zhao nodded.
Sheng Cui then continued, "I used to serve the prince, as his...personal maid."
After saying this, Sheng Cui paused for a moment. Seeing that Yun Zhao's expression was normal, she thought that she didn't understand.
She added, "That's right, the prince is old enough, and the palace will be equipped with a personal maid to let the prince... you know."
In fact, there is no need to explain it so clearly, Yun Zhao understands.
The young masters of wealthy families have very strict rules for their enlightenment in that aspect, and many personal maids are tacitly assumed to be the young masters' people.
"I was brought out of the palace by the prince. At that time, the prince had several personal maids, but in the end the rest were sold, and I was the only one left."
As she spoke, Sheng Cui looked at Yun Zhao and said, "The young lady looks very beautiful. Now that she has moved into Yuehe Hall, I think she is the mistress of the household. I have come here today to ask you not to expel Xiao Cui."
Yun Zhao smiled when he heard this, "I'm not the mistress you're talking about. I'm only staying here temporarily, and I'll leave when the time is up."
Sheng Cui's eyes flickered when she heard this, "But you've moved into Yuehe Hall."
"Really? I don't know what the purpose of this Yuehe Hall is, but for me, it's just a temporary residence."
Sheng Cui was a little disappointed.
Because the girl in front of him seemed to be of humble birth, if she really became the mistress in the future, she would have a good life in the future.
If you serve the prince well, you will live a peaceful and prosperous life.
It's better than the prince marrying a noble lady from a wealthy family. With her status, she can't be a concubine, and will also make the new master dislike her. In the future, she can only be sold.
The next day.
When Xie Jingmo entered the room, Uncle Li lowered his head and came in front of him.
"Your Highness, Xiao Cui went to see Miss Yun yesterday. They talked for a long time. I think... maybe she was talking about the fact that she is your personal maid. Do you think... should you explain this to Miss Yun?"
Xie Jingmo said nothing and walked towards Yuehetang.
When he entered the room, Yun Zhao was looking down at the flowers.
Xie Jingmo came in from the archway, glanced at her, and said, "Have breakfast with me."
On the table.
Xie Jingmo finished his breakfast, and Yun Zhao remained silent.
"Do you have anything to say to me?" Xie Jingmo put down his chopsticks.
Yun Zhao nodded and said, "If there's nothing happening in the capital these few days, I'll go back."
Xie Jingmo's expression darkened. "Is this what you wanted to tell me?"
Yun Zhao raised his head and looked at Xie Jingmo, "Of course."
She was not suitable to stay in the capital, nor in the Xie Mansion. In this capital, she was a rootless and redundant person.
Sooner or later you have to leave.
Xie Jingmo nodded, expressionless. "Today, the Minister of Revenue cried bitterly to His Majesty in the court, saying that his only beloved daughter had tragically died in a foreign land, and he demanded an explanation from the Xie family army."
Yun Zhao immediately became nervous upon hearing this, "And then?"
Xie Jingmo said, "The emperor asked the Minister of Revenue to look for me after the court session. I came back first, and Deputy General Gao said that the Minister of Revenue was waiting for me in the barracks."
Yun Zhao frowned immediately, "I'll go with you."
Xie Jingmo drank the tea on the table calmly, "Just now, didn't you say you were leaving? If you want to leave, it's better to leave early, don't act like you are so responsible."
After saying that, Xie Jingmo stood up and walked away.
Xie Jingmo walked to the door.
Uncle Li came up and asked, "Your Majesty, should I arrange for someone to serve Miss Yun, or do you?"
Xie Jingmo walked out, his tone cold and emotionless, "No need, she is very capable."
Just as Xie Jingmo was about to return to the camp, he was stopped by Li Minghai. "General, you said that the task of finding someone was left to you. What's the status of it now? The emperor asked me this morning, and I don't know how to answer. The emperor is already angry. Please, if you really don't have time, why not leave the task of finding someone to me?"
Li Minghai pleaded, "Give me the portrait. I'll ask someone to draw a hundred of them. I'll find them by noon tomorrow. Your Majesty, Huang Shang is serious this time! Don't let me be delayed!"
Xie Jingmo said indifferently, "I understand. I will go find the emperor in person later. Don't worry about this matter."
Li Minghai had a bitter face, and Deputy General Gao stood at the gate of the military camp watching the fun.
Xie Jingmo entered the military camp, and Deputy General Gao came up and said, "The Minister of Revenue is inside. He has been waiting for a cup of tea and has not been in a good mood."
Xie Jingmo walked into the military camp.
Li Ao was sitting on the side. When he saw Xie Jingmo come in, he sneered coldly.
"The general is very impressive, but now it's hard for him to even see anyone."
Xie Jingmo sat down, "What's up?"
Li Ao's face was full of anger. "I told the emperor today. The emperor wanted me to ask you for an explanation for Tingting's matter. I came here today to listen to what General Xie has to say."
As soon as these words were spoken.
Li Ao's three tall and strong sons walked in and looked at Xie Jingmo coldly.
Xie Jingmo's eyes were even colder than his own. "Master Li, do you disagree with what I said before?"
Li Ao certainly disagreed. "You said my Tingting died of an illness in the army, but she had always been in good health. How could she die suddenly?"
Xie Jingmo: "It's extremely difficult to say for sure about things like the body. Lord Li, instead of discussing this with me, why don't we find a coroner to perform an autopsy and then we'll know the cause of death."
"You!" Li Ao was furious and slammed the table fiercely. "Xie Jingmo! Don't go too far! You rely on your status as a prince to take human life lightly, don't you?"
Xie Jingmo's eyes were cold, and he remained calm even when faced with a sudden collapse. "I don't understand what Lord Li means."
"You don't understand?" Li Ao glared, as if he wanted to kill her. "I think you don't understand, you're deliberately protecting her!"
Xie Jingmo raised his eyes, his gaze cold. "Lord Li, what you mean is that what I reported to the Emperor before was not the truth? I was deceiving the Emperor? Why would I deceive the Emperor? Tell me more about it."
