Chapter 534: A Single Man and a Single Woman
Ji Yunshu shook his head. "You've also heard about Miss Liu's experience. Compared to her, I'm living in paradise. How can I say that I'm wronged? I just suddenly remembered that at that time, there were only two people in the palace who treated me differently."
Yin Ye completely forgot that the topic had been dragged off to something far away, and asked curiously, "Which two people?"
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "One is Xiao Yue. She is very favored and often comes to the palace. She never hides her dissatisfaction with me, so we always quarrel when we meet."
"There is another one, the prince of Yong, Xiao Kun."
Yin Ye didn't understand why the Prince of Yong was mentioned, but she still asked the question in her mind: "Could it be that you have a very good relationship with the Prince of Yong?"
Ji Yunshu shook his head. "It's terrible. I clearly saved his life, but he always teased me. So I kept avoiding him. After he left the palace, we stopped seeing each other."
Yin Ye recalled the scene when the lady met the Prince of Yong, and understood what she meant.
The two of them really don't look like they are familiar with each other.
"Madam, you specifically mentioned this. Could it be that these things are related to the Prince of Yong?"
Ji Yunshu felt a little disappointed: "I just suddenly felt that Prince Yong might be crazy."
"ah?"
Yin Ye was so shocked by what Liu Yan had just said that she just sighed casually.
In fact, how could King Yong, a feudal lord, be crazy when he could do so many things?
Even if he himself was crazy, it would be impossible for so many people to go crazy with him.
Ji Yunshu had no intention of continuing the discussion and simply asked, "Did my brother go to the military camp again?"
Yin Ye nodded: "That should be the case. The prince has been very busy these days. I heard that the general might send him to the front line."
Ji Yunshu nodded, looked at the moon in the sky and said, "It's time to get busy."
The next morning, Ji Yunshu woke up early, which was rare for him. He had a quick breakfast and went out with Yin Ye.
She used to go shopping frequently and was already familiar with Wuning's layout.
This time I didn't wander around, but went straight to an inn.
Yin Ye's eyes swept across the plaque at the door of the inn, and when he noticed a mark on it, his eyes paused.
They arrived early, and there were a few tables of people having breakfast in the inn lobby.
The waiter quickly ushered them in: "What could you two do for me?"
Ji Yunshu said directly: "I'm looking for someone."
The waiter was not surprised. It was unlikely that he would stay in the hotel at this time, and there was no need to come to an inn specifically for dining.
"Who is the guest looking for?"
Ji Yunshu said, "You are the shopkeeper."
“Uh,” the waiter then looked at Ji Yunshu seriously. He didn’t look like he was here to cause trouble, and he didn’t know what he wanted to do with the shopkeeper.
He thought suspiciously in his heart, but still smiled, "Sorry, our shopkeeper is not here."
Ji Yunshu found a nearby seat and sat down without caring, then said, "Tell him my name is Ji Yunshu, and I want to discuss a deal with him."
The waiter paused for a moment, but ultimately said nothing more and turned to walk towards the inner courtyard.
Yin Ye stood beside Ji Yunshu. After seeing the waiter leave, he lowered his voice and asked, "Is this the property of the Dark Pavilion?"
She remembered that when she went to southern Xinjiang before, her wife also went to the Dark Pavilion to buy information first. There was an inconspicuous mark on the plaque of that shop.
She also saw it on the plaque of the inn when she just came in.
It seems that the lady wasn't just strolling around while shopping these days.
She hadn't noticed this inn before.
Ji Yunshu nodded: "That should be the case. The Dark Pavilion's business is indeed very big. I have also seen their business in Mobei Royal City before."
Yin Ye couldn't help but ask, "Isn't it said that the Dark Pavilion is related to Prince Yong's Mansion? What do you want to do with them?"
Ji Yunshu's gaze fell on the waiter who hurried in from behind: "Prince Yong's Mansion is not a monolithic entity."
As she finished speaking, the waiter was already in front of her: "The shopkeeper invites Madam to the backyard for a chat."
Ji Yunshu nodded, stood up and went to the back.
Yin Ye didn't know what kind of connection his wife had with the Dark Pavilion, and she didn't seem to worry at all that the other party would do anything bad to her.
The front of this inn is not big, but there is a lot going on in the backyard.
The two followed Xiao Er and made many twists and turns before they stopped in front of the gate of a remote courtyard.
The waiter knocked on the door and said, "Sir, someone has arrived."
A clear voice soon came from inside: "Come in."
The waiter bowed to Ji Yunshu and said, "Madam, please do as you please."
Then he turned and left.
Ji Yunshu didn't care and reached out to push the door open.
There is a small courtyard inside, the plum blossoms in the corner are in full bloom, and the layout is quiet and elegant.
However, Ji Yunshu didn't pay attention to these things. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a familiar face.
She stared at the other person's somewhat enchanting face, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Mr. Yin, long time no see."
Yin Shu sat on a chair in front of the window, looked at her nonchalantly and said, "You came later than I expected."
Ji Yunshu didn't say anything, but walked over to sit opposite him. A window in front of him was opened, and a cool breeze blew in, carrying a faint scent of plum blossoms.
She felt a little cold and closed the window.
Yin Shu looked at her movements and said jokingly, "A man and a woman alone, do you want to give up your madam's innocence?"
Ji Yunshu didn't go to bed until midnight last night, and because he was thinking too much, he didn't sleep well, so his head felt heavy at this time.
She poured herself a cup of tea and took two sips before saying, "Do you have any improper thoughts about me?"
Yin Shu almost choked on his own saliva: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Ji Yunshu said, "Since you don't have that kind of feelings for me, why should I worry about my innocence?"
Yin Shu realized that he couldn't talk to this woman properly, so he had to change the subject: "Why did you come to see me?"
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Aren't you waiting for me to come?"
Yin Shu put down the teacup in his hand and sighed: "You are really a smart person. In fact, I hope you don't come."
"Well, in your eyes, I'm probably as good as the enchantress who brought disaster to the nation. To be honest, I never thought I would have such a big work."
Yin Shu looked at Ji Yunshu with a complicated look in his eyes: "You can also leave now, and I will pretend that you have never been here."
Ji Yunshu shook his head: "Tell me about his conditions."
Yin Shu said, "You're here now, how could you not know what he wants?"
Ji Yunshu asked, "Is there nothing to discuss?"
Yin Shu shook his head: "You know, I'm just following orders. I don't have the power to make decisions."
Ji Yunshu thought for a moment and said, "In that case, he should be here too. Can I see him?"
Yin Shu raised an eyebrow: "Are you sure you want to meet him? You know, if you meet him, things will be different."
Ji Yunshu stroked the pattern on the teacup and said lightly, "I know. I have something to tell him. It should be what he wants to hear."
Yin Shu snapped his fingers, and someone outside responded and left. At the same time, he also stood up and walked out. However, when he reached the door, he stopped and said, "You always do things that amaze me. I hope this time is no exception."
