Chapter 442: Liu Yan's Friendly Care
"There's nothing wrong with her. She's still grieving over that man's death and acts like she doesn't care about anything. I invited her, and she said she was worried about having nowhere to stay, so she agreed."
Having said this, she paused before continuing, "By the way, she said there's someone waiting for her in the royal city. From the way she spoke, it sounded like a businessman who was interested in what she brought."
Liu Ze didn't care much about these things and warned her, "You also know that what we are going to do is of great importance. You must not be careless. You should keep a close eye on her and don't let anything go wrong at the critical moment."
Liu Yan nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, second brother, I will be careful."
Liu Ze was still relatively confident in her, and endured the pain in his lower body and said, "Go pack up and get ready to leave. We've already wasted quite a bit of time this time, I hope the people over there won't mind."
Liu Yan hesitated and asked, "Is Second Brother's injury okay?"
She didn't think the people of Mobei would cause trouble for them just because they arrived a few days late.
After all, the people of Mobei have no concept of time, and no definite time was set at the beginning.
Accidents are common on the road, so it's good enough to arrive at all. It's normal to arrive a few days early or late.
Liu Ze gritted his teeth and said with a sullen face, "It doesn't matter. The situation this time is special. The two countries could fight at any time. It's better for us to go and come back early."
The other party chose the right time, and he had to suffer the loss even if he didn't want to.
So even if his heart was bleeding with hatred, he had to get the affairs of Mobei done first.
Otherwise he will not be able to gain a foothold in the family.
As for the assassination, he would definitely have someone investigate it thoroughly and make the other party pay the price.
Thinking of this, Liu Ze's eyes became vicious.
Since this was a serious matter, Liu Yan didn't dare to play tricks anymore and said, "Okay, I'll make the arrangements right away. I'm sorry, second brother, but you should take good care of yourself once we get to the city."
She knew that Liu Ze was in a bad mood, so she didn't delay any longer and went to do her business after she finished speaking.
So Ji Yunshu soon received the notice to set off.
Dongzhi smiled and said, "Madam, you picked the perfect time. If it was earlier or later, I'm afraid Liu Ze wouldn't give up so easily."
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "What can we do if he refuses to give up? Does he have any evidence that we did it? Even if he plays dirty tricks behind our backs, we're not necessarily afraid of him. It's the fact that he can quickly grasp the situation and know what's most important right now. He shouldn't be underestimated."
Despite suffering such a great injury, Yanagisawa did not let his anger get the better of him and made a rational decision so quickly, which is admirable.
Dongzhi said, "That's not the case. The Liu family wouldn't have chosen him out of so many other disciples. He might have already become suspicious of us. The sinister intentions of such a villain are hard to guard against. Madam, you must be careful next time."
Ji Yunshu had never underestimated Liu Ze, and even Liu Yan was no pushover.
If these two siblings join forces, they will be a real trouble.
Fortunately, the Liu family did not take Liu Yan's strength and ability seriously, and only wanted to use her as a tool to please the people of Mobei.
Completely ignored her own thoughts.
The caravan continued on its journey and soon arrived at the Mobei Royal City.
At the city gate, the Mobei people were checking everyone entering the city one by one. They were checking very carefully, not at all perfunctory as usual.
Ji Yunshu and Liu Yan were sitting in a carriage. She frowned and asked, "Why are you checking so strictly? I have two boxes of fragile things. Will they be damaged?"
Liu Yan naturally knew what she was talking about and said with a smile, "The situation between the two countries has been a little tense these days, so it's understandable that the people of Mobei are a little cautious. Sister Yun, don't worry. These people don't dare touch our things."
Ji Yunshu already knew that the Liu family's backer in Mobei was the Mobei King's confidant, and might even have a relationship with the Mobei King, so he knew that she was not bragging.
As if in response to her words, when their caravan arrived, Liu Ze's guards showed a sign to those people, and they easily let them pass.
Ji Yunshu's eyes flickered slightly, and he felt that the badge was a good thing. If he could get it, it would be easy to send a few people into Mobei Royal City, and it might even have other uses.
She then asked Liu Yan, "Master Liu is so impressive! What is that badge? Why did the people of Mobei let us through without even checking what we had? Aren't they afraid someone might use this badge to send spies into the city?"
Although Liu Yan knew she was deliberately flattering her, she still said with some pride, "That badge has usage restrictions. Not everyone can use it. Anyone who uses it will only be arrested by the Mobei people, not released."
Although she wanted to show off, there were some things that outsiders could not know, so she spoke vaguely.
As soon as Ji Yunshu heard it, he knew that this brand must have some history, and it must require other credentials to be used. He immediately gave up the idea of having someone steal it.
Then he said to Liu Yan, "Your family is really amazing. This is the first time I've seen someone from Mobei so easy to talk to."
Liu Yan asked with a smile, "Isn't this your first time in the Royal City?"
Ji Yunshu said, "Yes, but along the way, those Mobei soldiers were not friendly to us Daxia people at all."
Liu Yan looked out the window and entered the royal city. The place was full of people from Mobei. When they saw the Daxia caravan, they made way without any expression.
She didn't know what she was thinking about, and the smile on her face faded: "Yes, there's no telling when the two countries will fight, so of course they won't be friendly."
Ji Yunshu was puzzled. "Didn't the Mobei people insist on fighting? They can't blame us, right?"
Liu Yan glanced at her before saying, "Yes, but the King of Mobei wouldn't tell the truth to his people. The current situation is that Mobei has taken the initiative to send an envoy to Daxia to seek peace, and even, in a rare move, sent the queen's legitimate daughter to marry. However, the princess died in Daxia under unknown circumstances."
Ji Yunshu had already thought that the King of Mobei would use Wujina's death to make a fuss, but he didn't expect that Bilige had not returned yet. He had already made pre-war mobilization.
Does this mean that Daxia will not touch Bilige?
She thought for a moment and said, "It's not our fault that the princess died in Daxia. The emperor has already agreed to the marriage and he certainly wouldn't do such a thing. Who knows if it was the people of Mobei who did it themselves?"
Liu Yan nodded. "Sister Yun is right. Mobei is not peaceful right now. Some people want to negotiate, while others don't. But these are not our concerns. Didn't Sister say someone is waiting for you here? When are you going to find them?"
Ji Yunshu thought that since Bilige hadn't returned yet, Wujina shouldn't be in a hurry to see her, so she held her chin and said slowly, "No hurry, I finally made it to Mobei, so let's go shopping first."
Liu Yan: "There are many powerful people in Mobei in the royal city, and now many of them are hostile to us. Sister, you'd better be careful. If you need anything, please send someone to tell me."
Ji Yunshu said gratefully, "I understand. If anything really happens, I'll definitely trouble you."
"We are friends now, and I would be happy if I could help."
Liu Yan said sincerely.
The two were chatting when the carriage stopped.
Ji Yunshu looked outside and saw a house in front of him.
Liu Yan also looked over and said with a smile, "We're here."
