Chapter 148 What is his purpose?
Ji Yunshu had made some progress in martial arts training, and his senses were very sharp. He couldn't help but look upstairs.
But I saw that there was a closed window there.
Zhao Shen followed her gaze and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ji Yunshu shook his head: "Nothing, it just seemed like someone was looking at me just now, maybe it was my illusion."
Zhao Shen glanced at the closed window thoughtfully and said, "Go in first."
After saying that, he took her hand and walked inside.
Xiao Yu had been there for a while. Seeing the couple coming together, he was stunned for a moment, then swallowed his complaints to Zhao Shen and greeted them with a smile, "Why are you here too, sister-in-law?"
Zhao Shen said: "Ashu is not an outsider, just do as you please, no need to be polite."
Xiao Yu immediately understood that Zhao Shen brought Ji Yunshu here specifically to tell him that Ji Yunshu would be one of their own from now on.
In fact, even if Zhao Shen didn't say it, he knew the truth about the Suzhou incident and didn't dare to look down on Ji Yunshu.
However, Zhao Shen's behavior clearly showed that he really regarded Ji Yunshu as his wife.
Xiao Yu looked at the two men's expressions, and he understood what was going on. He smiled and said, "If you say so, then I really won't be polite."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Shen immediately looked at him with a warning in his eyes.
He smiled and said to Ji Yunshu, "Sister-in-law, you have to make the decision for me. He's back and still wants to slack off. I'm not cut out to be an official. You don't know how hard it has been for me to temporarily take over as Jingzhao Yin these days."
Ji Yunshu could actually imagine it.
She was just not familiar with Xiao Yu before, not that she didn't know him.
I also have a general idea of what kind of person he is.
He is not someone who has the patience to deal with the trivial matters in Jingzhao Prefecture.
Not to mention that he has nothing but his background and cannot win the support of the people. There is an 80% chance that the people left behind by Qin Fengwei will make things difficult for him.
But Zhao Shen had already said that he wanted to spend more time with her, so she naturally wouldn't spoil his plan. She smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work. It's just that my husband's injury this time is quite serious and he needs to recuperate for a while."
Zhao Shen looked at Ji Yunshu with a smile in his eyes, and there was obvious joy in his voice: "Ah Shu is my wife, how can I side with you? Okay, if you have any difficulties, just tell me."
As he spoke, he had already pulled Ji Yunshu to sit down: "Are you hungry? Order a few dishes first."
Then he called the waiter.
Xiao Yu watched helplessly as Zhao Shen decided on the menu without even asking for his opinion. After the waiter left, he said sourly, "Prince Zhao, have you forgotten something?"
Zhao Shen glanced at him and said, "Aren't you not picky about food and don't have any dietary restrictions?"
Xiao Yu: "Then there must be a preference."
Zhao Shen nodded: "I understand. Ask the waiter to add whatever you want to eat."
Xiao Yu felt that this person had become impossible to communicate with. He saw Ji Yunshu concentrating on looking at the floating tea leaves in the teacup, as if he didn't hear their conversation.
He sighed secretly in his heart. He didn't know what kind of luck Zhao Shen had. He actually married such a good wife by accident.
He could clearly feel that Zhao Shen was different from before.
In the past, Zhao Shen appeared gentle and refined in front of others, like a god who had descended to earth. But in fact, he was cold-hearted and could be described as a cold-blooded and heartless person.
But now, it has gained a little more popularity for some unknown reason.
He felt that this was not a bad thing, and he was happy for Zhao Shen from the bottom of his heart.
He sat down across from Zhao Shen and said, "You know that a member of the royal family like me suddenly landing in Jingzhao Prefecture wouldn't convince the public. I don't really want to do anything. I just want to get through these days and wait for you to take over. But those people seem to be deliberately targeting me, or should I say our family?"
Zhao Shen and Ji Yunshu looked at each other. They were still discussing Lanting on the way here.
The two of them deliberately avoided one point. If Lan Ting approached Xiao Yue intentionally, then what was his purpose?
The emperor asked Xiao Yu to temporarily take over the post of Jingzhao Prefecture Governor, which was a public statement that Xiao Yu was someone he trusted.
But before this, at least when Lan Ting met Xiao Yue, Xiao Yu was no different from other members of the royal family.
Until now, the emperor has not shown any difference in his attitude towards the Prince of Lin'an's Mansion.
Zhao Shen pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps someone has long known about your relationship with the emperor. If they want to deal with the emperor, they naturally have to eliminate all the reliable people around him. We must be careful from now on."
Because from then on, they came out from the shadows, and everyone knew that they were the emperor's confidants.
Xiao Yu felt a chill run down his spine when he heard this. He couldn't help but ask, "What on earth is Uncle Yong thinking? Why would he think his life is too long?"
Looking through history books, he had never seen many members of the royal family succeed in their rebellion.
Zhao Shen's face was solemn as he spoke, "Prince Yong has carefully considered and planned this. He has spent many years to reach this point today, and there is no way he will stop. There is no point in discussing this now. The most urgent task now is to find out their influence in the capital. You said someone is targeting you and the Prince's Mansion. What is going on?"
Xiao Yu shook his head. "It's just my feeling. It's the same as before. There's no evidence, no clues. Jingzhao Prefecture used to be Qin Fengwei's territory. I've worked hard to clean up a group of people these days to ensure everything runs smoothly. But you also know that the truly important chess pieces can't be pulled out so easily."
At this point, he couldn't help but want to curse, "What's wrong with Qin Fengwei? He's from a prominent family, and the emperor trusts him so much. Is he crazy? He actually helps Prince Yong."
Zhao Shen was calm and said, "It's a pity that we can't find anything about Prince Yong, or even his proximity. Fortunately, you didn't go to Suzhou, otherwise you would have seen that in the eyes of those people, the emperor has long been gone."
Xiao Yu: "Only you dare to say such outrageous words. What should we do now?"
Zhao Shen said, "I've already told the Emperor that I won't be announced as the new Jingzhao Yin for now. You can just hang out in Jingzhao Prefecture for a while and leave any suspicious matters you can't handle to me."
Xiao Yu understood what he meant. The two of them had played many such matches before, so he immediately said, "Okay, I'll have someone send the file to you tomorrow."
As soon as Zhao Shen made a move, he immediately felt a lot more relaxed.
He is the best at slacking off.
Ji Yunshu sat aside and listened to the conversation between the two. She didn't say a word the whole time, just quietly being a vase.
When he left, he asked Xiao Yu, "What has Ayue been doing these days?"
Xiao Yu was happy to know that his sister's relationship with Ji Yunshu had improved. He smiled and said, "My mother wants to arrange a marriage for her. She's been suggesting several families, but she's not happy about it. She's mad at my mother. If you have time, please help persuade her."
Ji Yunshu nodded: "I haven't seen her for a while, I'll go see her when I get back."
Xiao Yu said, "That's great. Welcome to our home."
When I returned to my yard, it was already dark.
When Ji Yunshu was sitting in front of the dressing table taking off her hair and jewelry, she suddenly realized that she hadn't rested the entire day. No wonder she was so tired.
She yawned, and a warm body suddenly covered her. Zhao Shen's hand gently massaged the sore spot on her waist, bit her ear and asked, "Are you tired?"
