Chapter 267: There Must Be Something Hateful About a Poor Person
Qiyun showed a look of struggle, pursed her lips, but ultimately did not speak.
Seeing her like this, Ji Yunshu said, "Is it Concubine Yi? She's from your Southern Xinjiang? You don't have to tell me, but you have to know that if you protect her now, everything she does in the future will be blamed on you people from Southern Xinjiang."
After a long while, Qiyun finally made up her mind and said, "She is the Saint of my Southern Border."
"Saint? What is that?"
You can tell it's something special just by hearing the name.
Qiyun glared at her and said, "She is a woman chosen from childhood to be accepted by the Gu King. She holds a high status in the tribe and is respected by the tribe members."
"Then why doesn't she recognize you?"
Ji Yunshu remembered Lan Yin saying that Concubine Yi didn't seem to know Qiyun.
"The Saint has lived in the temple since she was a child and cannot see outsiders. Of course, she has never seen me, but I have secretly gone to see her."
The status of a saint is highly respected. When Qiyun was young, she certainly fantasized about being accepted by the Gu King and becoming a saint. Unfortunately, her father didn't even let her contact the Gu King.
Later, Ning Huanyi became a saint. She was dissatisfied and secretly ran to the temple to see her.
Such a beautiful person, once you meet her, you will never forget her.
"If she can't even see outsiders, then how come she ran away and entered the palace to become a concubine?"
Qiyun shook her head: "No one knows that she has left Southern Xinjiang, and I don't know what she wants to do."
Ji Yunshu remained noncommittal about her words. Once Concubine Yi's identity was exposed, it became clear who had poisoned the emperor.
These days she didn't ask Emperor Zhao Shen what he meant to Concubine Yi, and she was too lazy to think about it.
After coming out from Qiyun's place, Ji Yunshu felt a little confused, so he went to walk around in the garden for a while.
She was thinking about something and didn't look at the road, and ran into Yao Ruolan who was also relaxing in the garden.
Yao Ruolan looks thinner than before, and her eyes appear particularly big.
After Wei Yuanmin knew Zhao Heng's plan, she began to target Yao Ruolan. Even with Zhao Heng's protection, she would not have an easy time these days.
Ji Yunshu felt that he had nothing much to say to her, so he nodded as a greeting and continued walking forward.
Unexpectedly, Yao Ruolan called her: "Madam, can you talk to me?"
Ji Yunshu looked at her in surprise: "Miss Yao, what do you want to tell me?"
Yao Ruolan paused before saying, "I know the Crown Prince's wife doesn't like me, but I just want to live a good life."
Ji Yunshu found this somewhat amusing: "The world is so vast out there, can't you just live a good life?"
Wei Yuanmin's behavior is certainly shameful, but is she, Yao Ruolan, a good person?
She didn't believe that Yao Ruolan didn't know anything about Zhao Heng's plan.
As things have developed to this point, no one is innocent. No matter what the final outcome is, it is all their own fault.
Yao Ruolan's face turned pale: "My cousin just won't let me go."
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Is it the Second Young Master who is unwilling to let you go, or is it you who are unwilling to give in? Miss Yao knows it herself. Your affairs have nothing to do with me, so there is no need to explain to me."
Ji Yunshu felt that it was meaningless for Yao Ruolan to say this to her.
If she had hoped before that Yao Ruolan could leave Zhao Heng, leave the Marquis' Mansion and live her own life, now she has let go of her desire to help others.
Many people's ideas are deeply rooted and cannot be changed by just a few words from her.
Yao Ruolan also saw that Ji Yunshu didn't want to talk to her, so she couldn't help but say, "That time at Xiangguo Temple, you all knew that she was the one who wanted to kill me."
Ji Yunshu said calmly, "What if she doesn't attack you? Will you accept Zhao Heng treating her well?"
"She doesn't have to marry her cousin."
Yao Ruolan blurted out.
Ji Yunshu smiled: "Why don't you say that Zhao Heng doesn't have to marry her?"
Ultimately, the problem lies with Zhao Heng; Yao Ruolan just doesn't want to admit it.
After saying this, Ji Yunshu no longer cared about Yao Ruolan's reaction and turned around and left.
After they walked a little further, Lu Ru couldn't help but say, "Master, it's rare for you to come out to relax, how come you just happened to run into her? It's really unlucky."
The little girl has always been jealous of what happened on Ji Yunshu's wedding night and has never been kind to Yao Ruolan.
Ji Yunshu sighed: "She is also a pitiful person."
Lan Yin continued, "There must be something hateful about pitiful people."
Ji Yunshu smiled and said nothing more. Wei Yuanmin had not made any move until now, which meant that he must be plotting a huge conspiracy.
She didn't know whether Wei Yuanmin hated Zhao Heng or Yao Ruolan more now, but no matter what, it was their own business.
When she returned to the yard and found Zhao Shen had already returned, she looked at the sky and was a little surprised: "Why did you come back so early today?"
Ever since she was kidnapped, Zhao Shen has been very busy and never comes back until dark every day.
Zhao Shen wiped his face before saying, "The people from Southern Xinjiang who are openly present in the capital have been dealt with almost completely. Based on their confessions, the current situation in Southern Xinjiang is unclear. I'm afraid I'll have to go there myself."
Ji Yunshu told Qiyun the news he had heard, and ended with a dissatisfied look, "You are the Jingzhao Yin, how can you be in charge of Southern Xinjiang? It's not like the emperor doesn't have anyone else to use."
She found that Zhao Shen was just a brick in the emperor's hand, and he could be moved wherever he was needed.
Zhao Shen laughed and said, "How did the emperor offend you to make you so dissatisfied with him? This matter is indeed not my turn, but have you forgotten the poison in my body? Sooner or later, I have to go, and this is a good time."
Ji Yunshu knew what he said was right, but she was still angry. "Qiyun told me that Concubine Yi in the palace is the Saint of Southern Xinjiang. What on earth was the emperor thinking? He slept with such a woman and got her pregnant. Is he really going to die?"
Zhao Shen explained, "You already know Concubine Yi's identity, yet you still blame the Emperor. Her methods are hard to guard against, and the Emperor was careless for a moment and fell into her trap. But don't worry, he's not the kind of person who would lose his mind over a woman."
Ji Yunshu was not at all reassured: "What man wouldn't be dazzled by such a beautiful woman?"
Zhao Shen couldn't help but knock her on the forehead: "Believe me, in the emperor's heart, many things are more important than women."
Ji Yunshu knew that compared to Zhao Shen, he really didn't understand the emperor well. From what Zhao Shen said, Concubine Yi should be under the emperor's control, so it was not appropriate to continue this topic.
So he rolled his eyes and asked, "What about you? In your heart, are there many things more important than me?"
Zhao Shen hugged her in his arms and said, "I'm not the emperor. I don't need to be responsible for the country. You saved my life. In my heart, you are naturally the most important person."
Ji Yunshu looked into his eyes, which seemed to be able to drown people, and couldn't help but sigh: "The prince is indeed omnipotent. Even his skill in speaking sweet words is top-notch."
Zhao Shen kissed her lips: "What else do you want to say? I'll tell you everything."
Ji Yunshu said, "If you talk too much at once, you'll get tired of it."
Zhao Shen laughed and said, "Then I will tell you about it every day from now on."
Seeing his cheerful expression, Ji Yunshu asked, "You seem to be in a good mood today. Is there something good going on?"
