Chapter 123 I will protect her
After six months of contact, Ji Yunshu felt that the emperor was not the kind of person who would suffer for the sake of face.
"What's the point of me giving face to the emperor? Look at Suzhou, from top to bottom, who takes the emperor seriously? There's nothing they dare not do, except what you can't think of."
Ji Yunlan frowned and said nothing.
The matter in Suzhou was too serious. Once the imperial edict came down, the people involved would probably be killed and blood would flow like a river.
After all, Daxia is still a peaceful and prosperous country now, so this is not a good sign no matter how you look at it.
Zhao Shen saw Ji Yunlan's concerns and said with a smile: "Don't worry, big brother. It's not a bad thing for the Suzhou incident to break out. It's really troublesome to let those people hide in the dark and plot. They suffered a heavy loss this time, so they can be quiet for a while."
He couldn't say anything further, so Ji Yunlan didn't ask any more questions. He just said, "I'm far away at the border, and there's no point in worrying about some things. You've ruined their plan, and I'm afraid you won't be able to live in peace in the future."
Zhao Shen said, "In a situation like this, there is no peace at all."
Ji Yunlan smiled and said, "As long as you know what's going on."
The two toasted each other a few times.
Ji Yunshu also drank a few glasses. She was already very sleepy, and after a few glasses of wine, she felt dizzy and fell asleep on the table.
Seeing this, Zhao Shen carried her to bed and went to sleep.
Ji Yunlan looked at his gentle and careful movements, and the dissatisfaction in his heart before coming here gradually dissipated.
He shouldn't have left the military camp, but he was really worried about Ji Yunshu, so he took the time to make this trip.
Now that I saw with my own eyes that she was fine, it was time to leave.
Zhao Shen walked him to the door and said with a smile, "Yun Shu will definitely be sad when she wakes up tomorrow and finds out you're gone."
Ji Yunlan said: "She should have gotten used to it by now."
He and his father were like passers-by in the capital, and the border was their home.
From childhood to adulthood, Ji Yunshu cried and sent them off countless times.
Zhao Shen solemnly promised: "Don't worry, big brother, I will protect her."
Ji Yunlan said with relief: "Fortunately, she married you."
This sentence brought a gentle smile to Zhao Shen's slightly cold eyes.
Ji Yunlan was completely relieved. He got up, mounted his horse, and rode away with a group of people.
When Ji Yunshu woke up, he felt dizzy and his stomach was cramping. When he heard Bai Ling say that his brother had left, he couldn't help but slap his forehead and said in regret, "Why did I fall asleep?"
Bai Ling said, "The prince came here quietly, and I was relieved to see that you were alright. But you caught a cold and didn't even realize you had a fever last night, which scared me."
Ji Yunshu actually felt a little uncomfortable on the way back yesterday, but these days, it’s hard to feel comfortable when you go out. She had been running around all day and night, so she thought she was just too tired and didn’t take it seriously.
In fact, since she came here, she has been practicing martial arts diligently and has always been in good health, so naturally she would not think about being sick.
She was thankful and said, "Fortunately, my brother passed away early. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to rest in peace after knowing that I was sick."
As the two were talking, Zhao Shen walked in with medicine.
Ji Yunshu frowned as he smelled the scent from afar.
It really is karma. A few days ago, she was still sympathizing with Zhao Shen for drinking medicine, and now it's her turn.
Zhao Shen held the medicine to her lips without any expression on his face: "Drink it while it's hot."
Ji Yunshu: "...It's still steaming, let it air out for a while."
Zhao Shen: "I tasted it, the temperature is just right, it will cool down if I let it dry any further."
Seeing that he didn't want to be refused, Ji Yunshu felt that she was being a little hypocritical. It was just a medicine, it wouldn't kill her.
She took the bowl of medicine, tilted her neck back, held her breath, and gulped down the whole bowl of medicine in one gulp.
Who knew that she drank too quickly, and as soon as she drank it, the bitter and spicy taste came up all at once.
He spat it all out with a loud splash.
Zhao Shen, who was closest to her, was vomited all over. Ji Yunshu was stunned: "I...I didn't mean to do that."
Zhao Shen looked at the filth all over his body, then at her bewildered look, and finally said gently: "It's okay, you'll feel better if you vomit it out. If not, eat something first and then take the medicine."
Ji Yunshu had no appetite at all, but Bai Ling quickly said, "I asked the kitchen staff to make porridge, and I need to boil another bowl of medicine."
After saying that, he hurried out. Zhao Shen asked someone to come in and clean up the room before going to wash and change clothes.
Yin Ye stayed by Ji Yunshu's side, serving her tea and water. When she had nothing to do, she would sit at the head of the bed and talk to her to relieve her boredom.
Thinking of the scene just now, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "The prince is such a clean person, but you vomited all over him. I can't imagine how you will face him in the future."
Ji Yunshu was so embarrassed that she wanted to crawl into the ground, but she still said stubbornly, "He deserves it. He forced me to drink medicine after I just woke up."
Yin Ye studied her expression and pondered for a moment before saying, "Have you noticed that the prince seems to treat you differently?"
Ji Yunshu slumped on the bed with a look of despair, staring unfocused at the bed curtains above his head. Upon hearing her words, he froze for a moment before asking calmly, "What's the difference?"
Yin Ye didn't know whether she really didn't notice or was unwilling to say it, but when the prince sent her to the girl, he said that she must protect the girl at all costs.
So since she knows some things, she has to remind her.
Yin Ye organized her words and said slowly, "When you were in the Marquis' Mansion, the prince was also good to you, but you should also be able to see that based on the prince's personality, he will treat whoever he marries well."
According to his temperament.
Ji Yunshu pondered this sentence in his mind, thinking that Yin Ye was indeed sharp-eyed and had exposed Zhao Shen's disguise in just one sentence.
She actually had no opinion about the previous Zhao Shen. When she first discovered that she had such a shabby identity, she even thought about dying together with Zhao Heng if she couldn't change the plot.
What Zhao Shen did was far beyond her expectations.
But when she heard Yin Ye say that he would be good to whoever he married, she inexplicably felt a little unhappy.
Her somewhat slow brain finally reacted.
The two had been married for half a year, spending time together day and night, and she seemed to have developed different feelings for Zhao Shen.
She looked at Yin Ye, waiting for his next words.
Seeing that she had taken his words to heart, Yin Ye continued, "Only since I came to Suzhou this time have I discovered that the Crown Prince is extremely skilled in martial arts. When he fights with others, he is ruthless and merciless. Such a person is very dangerous."
She refrained from mentioning the moment Zhao Shen revealed his murderous intent when Ji Yunshu rushed to find his brother yesterday.
But she knew that the lady was a smart person, and at this point, she should be able to understand what she meant.
Sure enough, the next moment, she heard Ji Yunshu ask: "Do you think he will hurt me?"
Although Yin Ye is not very old, he has seen many people and things because of his childhood environment.
She was silent for a moment before she said, "I don't know what the prince has been through, but people like him can easily hurt others and themselves."
When she recalled how gentle and amiable Zhao Shen was in the Marquis' Mansion, she felt a chill down her spine.
How could a person who is inherently cold-blooded and cruel disguise himself so perfectly?
