Chapter 165 Even if he turns to ashes, I won't admit my mistake
She agreed with it, but she felt that if she didn't slack off when she could, she might regret it later.
No matter what, Ji Yunshu was ruthlessly driven out of the palace by the Queen Mother.
After boarding the carriage waiting at the palace gate, Ji Yunshu noticed that Zhao Shen was in a bad mood. Thinking of what the people in the Empress Dowager's palace said about him and the Emperor drinking in Fengchen Hall for half the night, she couldn't help but ask, "How much did you drink to get yourself like this?"
Zhao Shen hadn't drunk so much in a long time, and he still felt a little uncomfortable. He rubbed his brow and said, "The emperor is so kind, it's hard to refuse."
Ji Yunshu thought that there were probably not many people in this world who could drink and chat happily with the emperor, and his relationship with the emperor was really close.
So he laughed and said, "What's wrong with the emperor? Why is he dragging you to drink?"
Zhao Shen glanced at her and said, "The Emperor feels that good things have happened frequently recently and are worth celebrating."
"Good news?" Ji Yunshu asked curiously, "What good things have happened recently?"
How come she doesn't know?
Zhao Shen said, "The Queen gave birth safely, his relationship with the Queen Mother has improved, and the Suzhou issue has been resolved smoothly."
Ji Yunshu was stunned for a moment, and realized that judging from the results, weren't these all good things?
"Your Majesty is quite open-minded."
Zhao Shen said, "Sitting in that position, I don't know how many people are watching me, both openly and covertly. If I can't get over it, I'm afraid I'll have trouble sleeping day and night."
Ji Yunshu thought about it and realized that the emperor's personality was actually quite good.
She thought it was her aunt's credit.
"By the way, what happened to my aunt's assassination yesterday? Was it Lu Ningshuang again?"
Speaking of this, Ji Yunshu's expression turned cold.
Zhao Shen said: "There is no evidence, but it's almost certain."
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but feel irritated: "What on earth does she want to do? What good will it do her if my aunt gets into trouble?"
Zhao Shen grabbed her hand and tried to calm her down: "Don't worry, she won't be able to jump around for long."
Ji Yunshu looked at him.
Zhao Shen then said, "Xia family."
"Can the Xia family control the affairs of the Lu family?"
Lu Ningshuang is the daughter of the Lu family. As long as Lu Xiang protects her, the Xia family cannot do anything to her.
Zhao Shen said: "At least we can find her something to do, so that she won't have to stare at us all day long."
Ji Yunshu sneered: "She's really staring at you. She's probably dying to kill me so she can live with you."
She had felt that something was wrong with Lu Ningshuang before, but it was not like she had never seen modern fans who went crazy for their idols.
But after hearing what Concubine Xia Shu said last night, she was shocked to realize that Lu Ningshuang was even crazier than she thought.
Zhao Shen didn't like her saying such things, so he put his finger on her lips and said, "Don't talk nonsense. I have nothing to do with her, and I won't let her hurt you."
Ji Yunshu didn't take his words seriously. It was impossible for Zhao Shen to protect her all the time. Who knew what a crazy person like Lu Ningshuang would do.
However, feeling that the air pressure around Zhao Shen was obviously a little low, Ji Yunshu was tactful enough not to express his thoughts.
The carriage quickly returned to the Marquis' Mansion.
Seeing that Zhao Shen looked really bad, Ji Yunshu asked, "Do you want to go and rest for a while?"
Zhao Shen pulled her and said, "You stay with me."
Ji Yunshu: "...Okay."
She had nothing important to do anyway.
The two went back to catch up on some sleep. When they woke up, the room was dark. Ji Yunshu rubbed his eyes in confusion: "Did we sleep all day?"
Zhao Shen glanced outside and said, "It's not dark, it's cloudy."
Seeing that he looked thoughtful, Ji Yunshu couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Zhao Shen said, "It might snow today."
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but shrink back into the quilt: "I was wondering why it was so cold."
Zhao Shen touched her. She had just woken up and her body was still warm.
Ji Yunshu felt a little itchy and couldn't help but want to avoid his hand: "What are you doing?"
Zhao Shen said, "Aren't you cold? Let me warm you up."
Ji Yunshu pushed him away angrily and stood up: "I'm hungry and need to eat."
Seeing that she was almost running away, Zhao Shen couldn't help laughing out loud.
Ji Yunshu went outside to call someone in. Lu Ru first brought a few plates of snacks for her to fill her stomach. "The kitchen has prepared food. Someone has already gone to get it. It will be delivered soon."
Ji Yunshu noticed that her sleeves seemed to be wet, so she asked, "Is it snowing outside?"
Lu Ru said: "Well, it has been raining for a while, but fortunately it is not too heavy."
Ji Yunshu nodded, and within the time it took him to finish two pieces of cake, lunch was already served.
Zhao Shen had dinner with her.
Just as Ji Yunshu was thinking about what to do in the afternoon, someone outside suddenly announced, "The prince and his daughter from the Lin'an County Prince's Mansion are here to visit the prince and his wife."
Zhao Shen and Ji Yunshu looked at each other and both felt that something was unusual.
If there was nothing else, the brother and sister would not have come to visit in the heavy snow.
Besides, it's already afternoon.
Soon Xiao Yu and Xiao Yue came in.
After the greetings, Zhao Shen took Xiao Yu to the study.
Before leaving, Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Yue with some worry.
Ji Yunshu noticed his expression and looked at Xiao Yue. She looked like she had been crying, with a little redness at the corners of her eyes.
I sat in the chair blankly, not knowing what I was thinking.
Seeing this, Ji Yunshu had a rough idea in his mind.
She sent everyone out of the room and then asked softly, "What's the matter with you coming to see me?"
Xiao Yue stared at her blankly, tears already streaming down her face before she could say anything.
Ji Yunshu sighed and said, "If you're sad, just vent it out first."
When Xiao Yue heard her say this, she could no longer hold back the tears that she had been holding back for so long, and her crying became louder. After a long time, it gradually turned into sobbing and finally calmed down.
Ji Yunshu handed her a handkerchief to wipe her face, then asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xiao Yue covered her face with a handkerchief and said, "I saw them."
Although the words were incoherent, Ji Yunshu understood them immediately.
In fact, when she saw Xiao Yue like this, she guessed that it was related to Lanting.
She didn't say anything, only to hear Xiao Yue continue: "I saw him and Lu Ningshuang together."
Ji Yunshu felt something was wrong. Were those two already shopping together openly?
The last time she met them, they were still in a private room in a restaurant, and they came out very late, looking quite mysterious.
"When did it happen? Are you sure it was Lanting?"
Xiao Yue said, "It was last night. I went to the restaurant to look for my brother for something urgent. I saw him having a private meeting with Lu Ningshuang in a private room. Although his face was not familiar to me, I was sure it was him."
Ji Yunshu frowned: "They were having a private meeting in the private room, how did you see it?"
Xiao Yue rubbed the handkerchief in her hand and said, "I... I saw it was him, so I chased him in. I saw Lu Ningshuang was also there. He didn't admit it and said I recognized the wrong person..."
At this point, she raised her head, her eyes filled with tears, "Even if he turned into ashes, I wouldn't make a mistake."
"You got tangled up with them?"
Ji Yunshu asked with a headache.
Xiao Yue said: "No, my brother apologized to them and said I admitted my mistake, and then took me away."
Ji Yunshu went over the matter in his mind: "It happened last night. Almost a day and a night has passed since then. Has anything happened?"
Lanting didn't know that Lu Ningshuang was a lunatic.
No matter what happened between her and Lan Ting, it was hard to say what she would do when Xiao Yue caught them meeting in the restaurant.
