Chapter 240
Hearing this, Ning Yuezhao's face darkened slightly, and asked someone to show Yan Mo his seat.

Yan Mo raised his eyes to look at her, saw that she was not angry, just turned around and returned to the throne, sat down indifferently, and Jiang Nian, who looked alienated beside him, was like a pearl and jade jade on Yaotai, complementing each other, indescribably harmonious and well-matched.He couldn't help lowering his head slightly to conceal the loneliness in his eyes.

In Ning Yuezhao's eyes, Ning Yuezhao thought that his depression was due to being wronged by Xiao Jingtian. Her red lips slightly curled up, and she said in a defensive way: "Xiao Jingtian doesn't know what to do. It's good if you come back. The emperor and I plan to expand the imperial army. You have experience in the Northwest, so you can help us. Right, Jiang Nian?"

As she said that, she still did not forget to look sideways at Jiang Nian with a smile in her eyes.

Jiang Nian didn't answer her directly, but just looked at Yan Mo, and said slowly, "This time the chaos in the Northwest can be put down, Yan Mo has contributed the most, what wish do you have, as long as Gu can do it, it will be as you wish Please."

Yan Mo looked up, still showing no emotion, "I'm just doing my duty, I don't dare to take credit."

What I want is exactly what you don't want to give, and you can't give it.

Jiang Qingnian smiled, "Gu knows that you are an honest person, if you don't have any rewards, it will appear to be stingy to Your Majesty. How about this, I will grant you a request, and after thinking about it in the future, you can come and ask at any time."

How could he not know what was going on in his heart, but according to Yan Mo's temperament, this secret might be hidden until death.Jiang Nian has never been a person who would make himself unhappy, so he will not delve into this matter.

Yan Mo took a deep breath, "Since His Highness said so, then I have something to ask."

Jiang Nian's expression remained unchanged, "What's the matter?"

It was the first time Yan Mo looked up at Jiang Nian carefully, "I hope to return to serve General Xiao."

Before he said this, there was a hint of hope in his heart.I hoped to find a trace of panic on his face, but there was none.

When he said this decision, Ning Yuezhao was taken aback, "Why?"

Jiang Nian looked at Yan Mo indifferently, as if he was not surprised at all that he would make such a request.

Yan Mo's eyes regained his calm, and he said: "I have only known the pleasure of galloping on the battlefield and killing the enemy during these days in the northwest. Please do this for no other reason than revenge."

Ning Yuezhao frowned slightly, pursed her lips and remained silent.

It turned out that after all his experiences, he was no longer willing to stick to this small world within the palace walls.Well, since he has such lofty ambitions, how can she not fulfill them, but!

"The Forbidden Army will be expanded soon. You have a wish to join the Forbidden Army. It will be the same if you join the Forbidden Army in the future. What's more, now that Xiao Jingtian has a rift with you, how can he reuse you again?" Ning Yuezhao said with earnestness.

Yan Mo lowered his eyes, "Your Majesty and the emperor's husband are both talented and generous people, and there are many capable people around them. Yan Mo is just an ordinary person, Your Majesty is absurd."

"I don't think there was anything wrong with obeying the imperial husband's order to join the army. Although I never betrayed General Xiao, I have betrayed the trust of General Xiao. After the chaos in the Northwest was settled, General Xiao led the army back to northern Xinjiang. I am the commander-in-chief. It is the responsibility of the [-] forbidden troops, I dare not act without authorization, now that the [-] forbidden troops are under His Majesty's command, I should go back to the northwest to plead guilty to General Xiao."

"It turned out that during this period of time, you and Xiao Jingtian developed a feeling of sympathy for each other." Ning Yuezhao said quietly, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart.Yan Mo is the bodyguard chosen by the Queen Mother for her, who has guarded her for many years. Unexpectedly, the friendship he has accompanied for many years is not as good as the brotherhood he and Xiao Jingtian have been together for more than half a year!
Seeing Ning Yuezhao's slightly disappointed look, Yan Mo couldn't bear it, hesitating whether to take back what he said.

Ning Yuezhao quickly swept away her depression, and said freely: "Yan Mo, you have always been loyal. Xiao Jingtian's side, after all, I planned on him first. If you go back and plead guilty, it will be considered as an explanation to him. If he is unwilling to forgive you, Or if you deliberately make things difficult for you, you will come back, and I will always have a place for you by my side!"

Although he was the guard chosen by the empress for her, she never regarded him as a slave. Now that he has his own ambitions, she naturally cannot restrain him in this small world.

Yan Mo's throat was dry, and before he had time to say anything, he had already lost the chance to speak again.

He stood up, cupped his hands, and said hoarsely, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

At this time, the palace servants suddenly stepped into the palace to report, "Your Majesty, Master Qing is seeking to see you outside the palace!"

Ning Yuezhao and Jiang Nian looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in their eyes.

Qingchi is Ning Yuezhao's companion, and since she became an official, Ning Yuezhao has granted her the privilege of entering the palace to face the saint at any time.From Ning Yuezhao's point of view, no matter what she did, the world would think that she was partial to Qingchi, so she would simply be more generous and not lose the privileges that should be given.

Qingchi has never been a person who is proud of favors, she has never used the privileges Ning Yuezhao gave her, and now she will go to the palace to ask for an audience regardless of her injuries!

Ning Yuezhao hesitated whether to accept Qingchi's invitation, after all, she and Jiang Nian knew Lu Ji's feelings for Qingchi.Compared to the cold Yan Mo, Lu Ji is obviously more able to give Qingchi happiness.But such things as happiness, like a person who knows the temperature of drinking water, she dare not disregard Qingchi's wishes.

Just when Ning Yuezhao was hesitating, Jiang Nian said: "I have something in the army that I would like to consult with Deputy General Yan. Qingchi is injured and asked to see him. It must be something important. It is not appropriate to delay it. How about you go to the side hall and talk to her?" ?”

Ning Yuezhao secretly rolled her eyes, there is no important matter in Qingchi, she must be afraid that if she misses today, she will not be able to see Yan Mo, so she eagerly came to see her.But seeing that Yan Mo heard that Qing Chi was injured, he didn't react at all, and Ning Yue Zhao had no other choice but to sigh.Both were her friends, accusing neither of them.Jiang Nian has been devoting himself to the matter of the forbidden army these days. It would be great if Yan Mo could help him a little.

"Then I'll leave it to you here."

Ning Yuezhao got up and walked out of the palace surrounded by the palace people.

Yan Mo got up and said respectfully: "My humble servant sends you off to Your Majesty!"

He bowed slightly, watching the beautiful figure disappear outside the palace gate.

Jiang Nian had a panoramic view of all this, but he didn't say anything, but repelled all the palace people in the palace.

"Your Highness, I understand my duty." Yan Mo turned around with difficulty and looked at Jiang Nian.

With such a bitter and affectionate look, I don't know what I thought he had done to be sorry for him.

Jiang Nian was really helpless, "I asked you to lurk by Xiao Jingtian's side earlier, Gu did not do it honestly enough. No way, Gu made you a real-time general, and you can lead the army alone, so you don't have to be angry by Xiao Jingtian's side."

Although Yan Mo is now the deputy general next to Xiao Jingtian, he does not have the rank of a real military officer.If Jiang Nian bestowed him a title, even if Xiao Jingtian wanted to embarrass him, he would have to be cautious.

Yan Mo smiled bitterly, "Your Highness, I don't feel wronged, and you don't have to apologize to me. In matters of affection, you can't force it, and I understand this truth."

How could he not understand what Jiang Nian meant and wanted to make up for him.

"General Xiao is a proud man. If you grant a title to your minister and he returns to the northwest, he will not dare to reject him from the camp, but he will never trust you again. So I appreciate your kindness."

He is willing to bury all his thoughts in his heart because Ning Yuezhao has never had any desire for him in his heart.

Now that she has seen her own mind clearly, she has found a man who treats her wholeheartedly. Although he feels a little bit disappointed, he will not hate anyone because of it.

He didn't want to stick to a small piece of land in the palace, because he wanted to guard the vast territory in the northwest for her, so that the Beiqi thieves could no longer encroach on half an inch of Daxing's land, so that she could sit in court without any worries.

Seeing the calmness on Yan Mo's face, Jiang Nian breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's the heart of a lonely person."

Yan Mo shook his head, and took out a stack of papers from his sleeve, "From the time at Yuquan Mountain, I knew that His Highness has the ambition to rise to the sky, and you also have the ability to turn clouds and rain. These are some of my experiences in the Northwest Army. Share your worries and problems for His Highness."

Elder Jiang raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes were beaming with joy.He stepped down the jade steps himself, and took the stack of papers from Yan Mo.

"Yan Mo, some words may be too cruel for me to say, but I sincerely hope that you can let go of your obsessions." Jiang Nian's words came from the bottom of his heart, "It is indeed precious to stick to a friendship, but Life is always moving forward, and she certainly does not want you to be alone forever."

Yan Mo rarely showed a smile, he looked at Jiang Nian, "Since your Highness said so, then I will not be polite. When Your Majesty married you, you didn't belong to His Highness in your heart. Now you are so guarded that the clouds will see the moon." I understand, but if An Chen is not Bei Qi's secret agent, but just an ordinary imperial doctor, will you give up?"

He called himself "I", which means that he said this purely from the perspective of being a man, so Yan Mo naturally stopped being polite to him.

Jiang Nian's expression changed slightly, this assumption was something he had never thought about.He went forward bravely at the beginning, but because he was convinced that An Chen had bad intentions. What if An Chen was just an ordinary imperial doctor who was sincere towards Ning Yuezhao?

At this moment, Jiang Nian heard the voice in his heart - even so, I will not give up.

Seeing Jiang Nian's face change, Yan Mo felt a little relieved.

"His Majesty's kindness is appreciated, but for some people, they just want to protect the life of the person in their hearts and be safe and sound."

The corners of Jiang Nian's lips curled up slightly, and he raised the paper in his hand, "Thank you."

Yan Mo smiled very lightly, as he accepted his thanks.

There are no assumptions about things in this world. Jiang Nian is not An Chen, and Yan Mo is not Jiang Nian. Some things cannot be simply nested and assumed.

"When do you plan to leave for the northwest?" Jiang Nian asked.

"Tomorrow." Yan Mo has nothing to worry about in the imperial capital, and now he just wants to put his whole heart and mind on Desert Wolf Smoke.

"So eager?" Jiang Nian was a little surprised, but immediately understood what he was thinking, and said generously, "Go to the side hall, Ah Zhao must have something to tell you."

Yan Mo shook her head, "Didn't she have something important to discuss with the courtier? I won't bother her, I'll take my leave first."

After finishing speaking, Yan Mo cupped his hands towards him, turned around and strode away.
