Marshal, your vest is off

Chapter 156 Meeting with Zhao Wuyuan
Zhao Wuyin nodded and believed her words, "Let me ask you again, if the fourth emperor brother wants to seize the throne, will you help him?"

"No." Cheng Qing said.

Zhao Wuyin asked in surprise: "Why?"

"It's his business to seize the throne and it has nothing to do with me." Cheng Qing said: "Besides, I'm just a woman, how can I interfere with the throne?"

"No, you can intervene." Zhao Wuyin looked at her and said firmly.

Cheng Qing raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "You think too highly of me."

"Isn't this a fact?" Zhao Wuyin said aggressively.

"What exactly do you want to say?" Cheng Qing asked.

Hearing this, Zhao Wuyin restrained his attitude a bit, and said, "Sorry, I got a little excited."

Cheng Qing frowned slightly and said: "There are some things that I don't want to worry about anymore. If you continue to talk about things like this, then there is no need for us to talk anymore."

"I'm sorry, I just..." Zhao Wuyin didn't know how to speak. He really wanted to know whether his father's illness had anything to do with Cheng Qing, but he had no way of asking.

Cheng Qing said: "There is no need to be sorry, His Royal Highness. The words he said in the East Palace last time are still fresh in Cheng Qing's memory. You shouldn't be like this. What happened this time is really a big blow to you."

Mentioning this incident, Zhao Wuyin sighed and said, "Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and I don't want to see the retribution of my mother."

"So you chose to become a monk?" Cheng Qing asked with raised eyebrows.

"I chose to become a monk because of my mother." Zhao Wuyin said, "No matter how vicious she is, she is still my mother. I want to become a monk in Foguang Temple, and chant scriptures day and night to wash away her sins."

"Prince, you are so young. I never thought you would believe in ghosts and gods." Cheng Qing said with a smile.

Zhao Wuyin smiled, and said, "You can say it like that. By the way, why didn't you leave while my father was seriously ill, and instead came back?"

"Of course I have my reasons for coming back," Cheng Qing said.

Zhao Wuyin looked at her and asked: "Cheng Qing, let me ask you one last question. Do you like my father?"

Cheng Qing looked at him in surprise and said, "Are you kidding? I like him? Didn't I make it clear enough last time?"

Zhao Wuyin smiled apologetically and said, "It's okay if I don't. Just think of me as nonsense."

"You have nothing else but to ask me these questions?" Cheng Qing asked unconvincingly.

"Yeah." Zhao Wuyin nodded.

Cheng Qing crossed his arms and looked at him and said, "It doesn't look like that. You must have something else."

A trace of struggle flashed in Zhao Wuyin's eyes, and soon disappeared without a trace, saying: "No."

"Really?" Cheng Qing asked again.

"Really not." Zhao Wuyuan said.

"If not, I'll leave." After Cheng Qing finished speaking, he turned around and left neatly.

Zhao Wuyin raised his hand to stop her, but he was too confused and didn't call her.Dejected, he turned around and walked to the bench and sat down.

"I just said something must be wrong with you."

Hearing Cheng Qing's voice, he looked up and saw her leaning against the pavilion pillar and looking at him with a smile.Zhao Wuyin frowned and said, "Cheng Qing, sometimes your cleverness is really annoying."

Cheng Qing's smile froze and he snorted coldly: "When others ask me for help, I may not necessarily agree. Those who catch up are even disliked."

"That's not what I meant!" Zhao Wuyin waved his hand, stood up, and explained quickly.

"I'll give you one last chance. If you don't tell me, I'll leave." Cheng Qing said.

"Okay, I say." Zhao Wuyuan said.

Cheng Qing raised his eyebrows, sat down on the bench at the exit, and said with a smile, "That's enough, just tell me."

"I have two things to ask you." Zhao Wuyin said sullenly.

"You've asked for a lot, continue." Cheng Qing said with a smile.

Zhao Wuyin looked at her calm look and couldn't help but ask: "What I ask you to do must not be easy. Why do you seem to not care at all?"

Cheng Qing's eyebrows were full of joy and he said: "But I haven't promised you yet, haven't I?"

"You!" Zhao Wuyin felt as if he had been tricked and was a little angry.

Cheng Qing smiled and said, "Okay, I'm just teasing you. Since I rushed up to ask you, I naturally agreed to it. Tell me, what's going on?"

"First thing, I want to ask you to save my father." Zhao Wuyuan looked at her hopefully.

"I can only say that I will try my best, but it's hard to say whether I can save him. After all, I'm not a doctor, and I don't know what his condition is now." Cheng Qing said solemnly.

"Why are you not surprised at all?" Zhao Wuyin asked.

"Huh? An accident? What's so surprising?" Cheng Qing asked, "When you said you asked me, I had already imagined what you wanted to ask me for."

"Then, have you guessed the second thing I want to ask you for?" Zhao Wuyin asked with difficulty finding his voice.

Cheng Qing spread his right hand and counted: "I only know a little about you. If it's for Yan'er, it doesn't seem worth your while to beg me. Do you know that Yan'er is unknown. If it's for my adoptive father, King Anhe, that’s even more unnecessary. I will protect my own father even if you don’t need to tell me. Do you need to beg me? Are you still so embarrassed? After all, only that one can break your heart. My queen mother would make it so difficult for you to beg me."

Cheng Qing raised his eyebrows, looked up at his shocked face, and smiled: "I guess you want me to save her, right?"

"I'm convinced." Zhao Wuyin sighed and said, "It's a pity that you are a girl, otherwise, you will definitely be a famous figure of the generation."

"What fun is there in being a man of influence? You are on tenterhooks every day. If you are not careful one day, your life will be at stake. Can you still be like me now? Be a bystander, step in, and withdraw. , it all depends on my wishes. Moreover, there won’t be that many people who care about me." Cheng Qing said.

Not many, they just care about you, no one is easy to mess with.Zhao Wuyin added in his heart.

Cheng Qing touched his chin and said, "I can promise to save your mother, but I only promise to save her life."

"That's enough, thank you." Zhao Wuyin stood up and knelt down on one knee to her.

Cheng Qing was startled, and quickly went over to help him up, saying: "You are the prince, I can't stand your kneeling."

Zhao Wuyin said apologetically: "After saving my father and queen mother, I know what it means to you, but I can only beg you, I don't expect you to agree, but you promised so readily, except I don’t know what else I can do to express my gratitude to you in this way.”

"If you don't know what you want to do, can you promise me something?" Cheng Qing looked at him and asked.
