Chapter 453: Pray for My Win
Wu Jina said with some distress: "Yes, after I knew you would take action against Mi Jian, I made arrangements, but unfortunately it didn't go smoothly."
Ji Yunshu was puzzled: "How could it be?"
They have already made arrangements in advance, so how could things not go smoothly? Then what have they been doing these days?
Wujina sighed, "Bilige is truly a formidable opponent. He returned yesterday, and upon receiving the news of Mi Jian's assassination, he immediately had my father appoint Mi Jian's successor, a figure second only to Mi Jian in power within the Yanhui tribe. With no one objecting, the decision was finalized."
Ji Yunshu suddenly felt that the situation was difficult. In this case, the effectiveness of her killing Mi Jian would be greatly reduced.
The original intention was to let Wujina gain the right to speak in the Yanhui tribe, so that the forces supporting the King of Mobei would be reduced.
Nothing seems to have changed now.
As for getting rid of a person who was in collusion with Prince Yong, she felt that Mi Jian was not a big fish.
The ones who really cooperated with King Yong should be King Mobei and the fifth prince Bilige.
"Haven't you noticed such a person before?"
Wujina said, "I paid attention, but it's useless. He is Mijian's sworn brother and obeys my father's orders. I can't win him over. He is also quite skilled. Besides, I have already killed Mijian, so I can't kill him too."
Killing cannot solve the fundamental problem. Killing two leaders of the Yanhui tribe in succession will cause more trouble if the Yanhui tribe unites against the enemy.
Ji Yunshu asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
Her principle is to try not to interfere in the internal affairs of the Mobei people.
Moreover, she believed that with Wujina's caution, she would not be allowed to get involved in too many affairs in Mobei.
Wu Jina said with a headache: "Other things are easy to deal with, but my mother's condition cannot be delayed. The doctor you brought said that she was poisoned. The antidote for this poison is very difficult to prepare. As long as the person who prepared the poison can make it."
Ji Yunshu understood that the queen's poison was most likely administered by King Mobei, which meant that her life was in the hands of King Mobei.
The King of Mobei's move was not impressive, but it was very useful.
"Will you give in for your mother?"
Ji Yunshu was a little worried.
Things have come to this point. If we give in, we will lose the initiative and will be close to defeat.
"Give in?" A cold smile appeared on Wujina's usually frivolous face. "You probably don't understand my situation. If I take a step back, I'll be dead. Not only me, but the entire Wulan tribe as well. By then, I won't be able to save my mother either."
Ji Yunshu heard the grief and anger in her slightly sharp tone.
She also felt a little emotional. Being threatened with her mother's life by her own father was probably a spectacle unique to the royal family.
She couldn't say anything more about this matter, so she said, "Go ahead and do whatever you want. If you need me for anything, you can ask someone to tell me."
Wujina said, "I won't be polite with you. If it were just my father and Bilige, it would be fine, but behind them is the shadow of your King Yong. I believe he is the real reason for your visit."
Seeing her frankness, Ji Yunshu stopped hiding anything. "That's right. He wouldn't support your father and Bilige for no reason. Once the situation in Mobei stabilizes, it will inevitably affect Daxia."
If Wujina lost this round in Mobei, everything written in the book might still happen.
This is what Ji Yunshu is really worried about.
Wuzhina smiled and said, "So you'd better pray that I win."
Ji Yunshu nodded immediately: "I will go burn incense and worship Buddha later."
Wujina laughed out loud: "How can there be someone as lovely as you in this world."
Ji Yunshu: “…”
She was just saying it casually, what does it have to do with being cute?
As the two were talking, someone walked in from outside.
It was Helian Ye whom Ji Yunshu had met before.
His face looked unhappy as he walked in hurriedly. When he saw Ji Yunshu, he was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't know whether he should speak or not.
Ji Yunshu tactfully stood up and said goodbye.
Wujina said, "Don't leave, let's listen together."
After saying that, he turned around and asked Helian Ye, "What did Bilige do again?"
Helian Ye said with a sullen face, "The queen's condition has worsened. I called a witch doctor early this morning, but he was helpless."
The teacup in Wujina's hand hit the table with a loud bang, and the cup shattered into pieces instantly. The water flowed down the table and fell to the ground little by little, making a dripping sound.
This was the first time Ji Yunshu saw Wujina with such an expression, and he knew that she was really angry.
Helian Ye, however, acted as if he was used to it. "Being angry won't help. We need to resolve this matter as soon as possible. Bilige must have known you were still alive and is trying to force you to show up."
The direction of Bilige's move was too obvious. Wujina was undoubtedly the person in the world who cared about the queen the most.
Wu Rina was silent for a moment, then looked at Ji Yunshu: "You Da Xia people are good at making poisons. Do you have a poison that can cause pain but won't kill you in a short time?"
Ji Yunshu immediately knew what she was up to: "Of course there are, and there are many, with varying effects, and some even have no antidote."
Those were all Taoist Yichen's experimental products. He was very interested in poison itself. After Ji Yunshu reminded him that many things could be purified, he came up with even more things.
Ji Yunshu was afraid that he would come up with something useful but would throw it away because he didn't know how. So, on the pretext that he was interested in these things, he asked him to send all the newly developed things to the capital, regardless of whether they were useful or not.
There are indeed many useful inventions among them.
The poisons are of various kinds.
Wujina said: "He doesn't need to live too long. It doesn't matter whether there is an antidote or not. The key is that he must suffer after being poisoned. The more painful the better."
Ji Yunshu saw how much she hated King Mobei.
With a thought, she said, "I can give you the things, but I have one condition."
Wujina raised her eyebrows: "What conditions?"
This was the first time in such a long time that Ji Yunshu negotiated terms with her.
Ji Yunshu said, "Bi Ling Dan."
Seeing that Wu Rina wanted to say something, she didn't give her a chance to speak and continued quickly, "I know what you mean, but there is no such thing as blood. If this thing really exists, the King of Mobei is the only one who knows its whereabouts."
Wujina didn't know why she was so obsessed with the Bilingdan, but thinking about the legendary medicine that could save a person as long as they could breathe, no one could refuse it.
"Okay, if you can get it out of my father, I will give you the Biling Pill."
Ji Yunshu was just testing her, but she didn't expect her to say that.
Perhaps her expression was too obvious, Wujina rolled her eyes and said, "If the Biling Pill is really as good as the legend says, I'd naturally want it too. But since the rumors of the Biling Pill first came out, several kings of Mobei have died. Why didn't they eat it?"
Ji Yunshu knew that what she said made sense, but she didn't care about much else. Even if there was something wrong with the medicine, she had to find a way to get it first.
