Chapter 459 I Believe in You
Most importantly, he couldn't say he had no intention of claiming the throne.
Because today, the situation no longer allows him to retreat.
So Wujina's accusations against him are completely reasonable.
Ji Yunshu was a little curious about how the fifth prince would break the deadlock.
However, Zhao Shen immediately said, "If this were the case in Daxia, Wujina's move would be a brilliant one. Bilige's inability to prove his innocence would mean he would be cut off from the throne."
The person sitting on the throne of Daxia may not be perfect, but he must not commit the crime of harming brothers and sisters, at least not openly.
But it’s different in Mobei. People here believe in the law of the jungle, so they don’t care how Bilige ascended to the throne, as long as he is the one who wins in the end.
Ji Yunshu sighed: "If it were in Daxia, Wu Rina would not be qualified to inherit the throne."
Many things cannot be generalized, there are good and bad things.
Zhao Shen said: "Now it depends on who can gain the upper hand between Wujina and Bilige."
"Okay, but I think Bilige still has some cards up his sleeve."
If he had only relied on King Mobei, he might not have survived until now.
Zhao Shen patted her head and smiled, "Don't worry, we have Wujina. If she can't deal with Bilige, she won't have to think about the throne."
Ji Yunshu didn't think he would place all his hopes on Wujina.
After all, Wujina did lose to Bilige.
She smiled and said, "Then I'd better check for the spy around Daddy. Can you leave that person to me?"
Zhao Shen asked, "Didn't you just disagree with me arresting people directly? What are you going to do?"
Ji Yunshu held his chin and said, "He probably hasn't given the map to Bilige yet. Can we give him a different map without anyone noticing?"
Zhao Shen smiled and said, "That's a good idea, but we have to forge a defense map in a very short time without arousing Bilige's suspicion."
Ji Yunshu looked at him eagerly: "Can you do it?"
She knew that Zhao Shen was a genius, proficient in both civil and military affairs, but he was not a real general after all, and it was a bit difficult for him to forge a defense map on the spur of the moment.
Zhao Shen asked, "Have you forgotten Huo Cong? He's been in the army before, and he's been on the border between the two countries for many years. He's had a lot of dealings with both the Daxia and Mobei peoples, and he's very familiar with the terrain. If he were to forge the defense map, he should be able to fool Bilige."
Ji Yunshu patted his head and said, "You're right. I'll go find him right away."
Zhao Shen had no choice but to give him the defense map he got from Mi Jian. "Follow this. No matter how powerful Huo Cong is, he can't fabricate a defense map out of thin air."
Ji Yunshu took the defense map and ran out again.
Huo Chong sent the message out, thinking that Ji Yunshu would come back tomorrow at the earliest.
Unexpectedly, she came again after a while.
Huo Cong settled in a commoner's courtyard. When Ji Yunshu arrived, he was barbecuing and eating alone in the courtyard.
Seeing Ji Yunshu coming, he was a little surprised: "Madam, is there something important?"
Even if Ji Yunshu couldn't be treated as an ordinary housewife, it was a bit inappropriate for her to come to her house at this time.
Ji Yunshu ignored all this and handed him the defense map and asked, "Can you make a fake one?"
Huo Cong opened the picture and looked at it for a long time before answering the question, "Madam, do you trust me so much?"
Ji Yunshu looked at him straight in the eyes and said, "You know better than me what this picture represents. Will you go along with those people and betray Daxia?"
Huo Cong shook his head firmly: "No."
Ji Yunshu looked him straight in the eye and said, "Then I will believe you."
Huo Cong was a clever man and immediately understood her intention. He carefully examined the defense map and said, "I can forge one. Even if the Mobei people really use it to invade Daxia, I can tamper with the map. However, this requires the cooperation of General Ji."
Ji Yunshu said without hesitation, "Just draw the picture, and feel free to ask for anything you want."
Seeing that she was not embarrassed at all, Huo Chong couldn't help but feel puzzled.
General Ji is not a man who is easy to talk to. How could he allow others to tell him how to deploy his troops?
Moreover, not only is Mr. Ming unknown, but he is also obviously a scholar. Such people are often ostracized in the military camp.
How could the woman in front of me be so confident that the general would cooperate if she just drew a picture?
Meeting his inquiring gaze, Ji Yunshu realized that he had nodded too quickly and said, "The current situation is that there is a spy hiding with General Ji. Judging from the time your brother was murdered, it has been at least ten years. If this person is not caught, something bad will happen sooner or later. We are helping the general, and there is no reason for him not to cooperate."
She spoke with confidence, and although Huo Chong felt something was wrong, he was unable to refute it for a moment.
"I'll finish it as soon as possible. Madam, do you have any other instructions?"
He knew the purpose of this map, so he knew there was no time to delay.
Ji Yunshu shook his head: "Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Huo. I know nothing about fighting, so I won't cause any trouble."
She knows her own limitations and won't make comments on things she doesn't understand.
Huo Chong's impression of her improved a lot all of a sudden. Soldiers are most afraid of incompetent generals who like to show off and act recklessly. On the battlefield, a single word can cost the lives of thousands.
This defense map was of great importance, and he was really afraid that Ji Yunshu would make rash suggestions without knowing the seriousness of the matter.
Ji Yunshu said, "After you finish the drawing, I will give this picture to the person you found out was connected to the Fifth Prince today, and then we will wait and see what happens."
Huo Chong said solemnly, "Madam, rest assured. I will personally handle it and will definitely not let you down."
Ji Yunshu nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Huo."
She came in a hurry, said her business and left.
Her words and actions were very cheerful and generous, but Huo Chong was staring at the direction she left, unable to recover from his shock.
The people following him couldn't help but wink and say, "The person has disappeared. It's time to come back to his senses."
Huo Chong withdrew his gaze and returned to the house to continue looking at the picture. He had already started thinking about how to forge it to make it look more realistic.
The Fifth Prince of Mobei is not a mediocre person, and there are many talented people around him. It is not easy to deceive him.
Shi Hu, who was following him, was used to his carefree appearance and rarely saw him so serious. He smiled and teased, "Are you attracted to that woman? Why are you taking her instructions so seriously?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Huo Cong frowned and said, "This woman is not ordinary. Don't offend her with your words, or you will get into trouble."
Shi Hu was even more puzzled. "People like us are afraid of offending others? Besides, who would come to a place like this if they were a noble lady from Daxia? Didn't you ask someone to investigate her pretty boy husband? They found nothing. There is no one of note in Daxia with the surname Ming."
Huo Chong also found it strange, but he trusted his family's judgment.
There are two possibilities if nothing is found.
One possibility is that the other party is indeed not a famous person.
The other reason is that the other party’s status is too high and they cannot reach him.
He intuitively felt that this couple was most likely the latter.
