Chapter 447: Do People Like This Really Exist?
Helian Ye watched helplessly as the two women, without even explaining the cause and effect, immediately hit it off and discussed how to kill Mi Jian at the banquet.
I couldn't help but feel weird.
But he believed in his cousin's judgment of people, as she had hardly ever made a mistake over the years.
I couldn't help but look at Ji Yunshu again.
The people of Mobei may not know who the emperor of Daxia is, but no one does not know the great general Ji Changlin who guards the border.
Their Ulan tribe had fought against the Daxia people over the years, but he could never imagine that the Daxia general, who was like a god of death on the battlefield, had such a daughter.
She has black hair and fair skin, and compared to the women of Mobei, she has a different kind of delicate and bright beauty, like a spring flower that has just bloomed on a branch.
But just by looking at her actions, you can tell that she is not as weak as she looks.
After listening to her again, I understood why the elders always emphasize not to judge people by appearance.
Ji Yunshu briefly recounted how he infiltrated the Liu family caravan.
"The Liu family wants to marry their daughter to Mi Jian, but Liu Yan doesn't want to, so she's got her eyes on me. When that day comes, she'll definitely let me replace her, and then I'll find a way to kill Mi Jian."
After she said this, Wujina understood that the Liu family was colluding with Mi Jian, and the marriage at this time might also be related to this war.
"You two have a good plan. You are taking advantage of this opportunity to not only eliminate the external threat, but also the internal traitor."
"What else? Would you come all the way to Mobei to play house with those people?"
Ji Yunshu took a sip of wine and coughed.
The wine from Mobei was quite strong, and it felt like fire burning down his throat.
Wujina took a jar of wine and took a sip. Seeing her like this, he smiled and said, "Okay, do whatever you want. Our Mobei wine is not like your Daxia wine, which tastes like water."
Ji Yunshu did not talk about the Liu family anymore. Wu Rina might not understand the implications behind this.
She must have known whether it was just Mi Jian or the King of Mobei who was cooperating with the Liu family.
She took a few small sips and got used to the taste of the wine. She smiled with some regret: "I've had stronger wines than this, but it's a pity that I can't have it anymore."
Although this wine is strong, it cannot be compared with modern high-proof liquor, probably due to its production process.
Wujina had no doubt about this. The skills of Daxia were already more advanced than those of Mobei. Even the wine-making technology was passed down from Daxia.
But she still asked curiously: "Why can't I drink it?"
Ji Yunshu took a sip of wine and said nothing.
Seeing this, Wu Rina didn't ask any more questions and raised her glass to Ji Yunshu: "Then I wish you all the best. When things are settled in the future, we will come here to drink and celebrate."
Ji Yunshu nodded: "Okay, then it's time to celebrate your ascension to the throne."
An hour later, after the two of them had eaten and drunk their fill, Wu Rina agreed to cooperate with Ji Yunshu.
Before leaving, she told Ji Yunshu that if she had any problems, she could go to her cousin Helian Ye.
Helian Ye didn't say anything from beginning to end, as if he was just here to recognize someone.
After leaving the restaurant, he couldn't help but ask Wu Jina: "Is it okay to leave her here alone?"
Wujina rolled her eyes at him and said, "Do you really think she's a weak woman? Don't worry, no matter who gets into trouble, nothing will happen to her."
Helian Ye was puzzled: "Could it be that she is also a master?"
Wu Rina shook her head. "She's not a master, but she's surrounded by many masters, especially her husband, Zhao Shen, the son of the Marquis of Changxing. He's probably one of the top three masters I've ever met."
Helian Ye was shocked: "Isn't Zhao Shen a scholar? I remember you said he was a third place winner."
He didn't know much about Daxia, but he knew that anyone who could get the third place in the imperial examination was a very capable scholar.
Such a person is actually a top master?
Wujina covered her face with a veil and used her hands to block the glaring sunlight: "Otherwise, why do people say that Daxia is lucky? People like that actually exist."
It was the first time that Helian Ye saw his cousin with such an expression and he was a little surprised.
Wujina was precocious since she was a child. When she was very young, she seemed to understand that the King of Mobei was flattering her. She always pretended to be well-behaved on the surface, but played everyone around in circles behind her back.
Now the King of Mobei thought she was dead, and he attacked the queen in order to clear the obstacles for the fifth prince to ascend the throne.
However, she hid in the dark and cooperated with the Daxia people in an attempt to sit on the throne.
He was shocked when he first learned about this, until Wujina laid out all the pros and cons in front of him.
If it wasn't her who ascended the throne, it would be Bilige.
If Bilige wins, he will not let the Ulan tribe go.
Helian Ye smiled and said, "Yes, Daxia is lucky, but we are not bad either. With you here, everything will be fine."
Wujina squinted her eyes at him and said, "I thought you would have some doubts about my cooperation with Daxia."
This is also the reason why she brought Helian Ye to see Ji Yunshu.
Their current cooperation is beneficial to both parties, and she doesn't want her cousin to have any doubts about it.
Helian Ye said, "Didn't you say it? It was the Great Xia Emperor who entrusted the matter to her. Even the Great Xia Emperor can trust someone, so why should I question her? As you said, she dared to come here, which means she is not a weak person."
Wujina breathed a sigh of relief: "Then let's cooperate with her to kill Mi Jian. Of course, take her doctor to see the Queen Mother first."
Helian Ye had no choice but to say, "Okay."
Wujina disappeared into the crowd just as she had done when she came.
Helian Ye rubbed his brows and ordered the people around him: "Go to the restaurant and wait. When the doctor arrives, go to the royal court."
In the restaurant, after Wujina and the others left, Ji Yunshu waited for a while before getting up.
Dongzhi saw her cheeks flushed and said with some concern, "How about having someone send a bowl of hangover soup first?"
Ji Yunshu shook his head: "Let's talk about it when we get back."
The wine had a strong aftereffect. Although she was sober, she looked a little tipsy.
This can also be used to conceal the real purpose of coming to the restaurant today.
The Liu brothers and sisters are very busy now and probably don’t have time to go into details.
When she returned, Liu Yan was pacing anxiously at the gate of the courtyard. She was relieved when she saw her: "Where did Sister Yun go?"
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Miss Liu is waiting for me? What's going on?"
Liu Yan immediately smelled the alcohol on her. "I saw that my sister had been out for a long time and hadn't come back. I was a little worried. Why did she think of going out to drink?"
Ji Yunshu said, "I ran into the friend I mentioned earlier, and we made an appointment to have dinner together."
Liu Yan's eyebrows jumped. The day of the banquet was just around the corner. She had been particularly nervous about Ji Yunshu these days, afraid that something might happen to her, so she had people keeping an eye on Ji Yunshu.
But she didn't expect that Ji Yunshu was meeting someone right under her nose, and she had no idea at all.
She had an inexplicable feeling that things were out of control, but she suppressed her fear and asked, "Really? I wonder what kind of person my sister's friend is?"
