Chapter 560: Uneasy Conscience



Chapter 560: Uneasy Conscience

Wujina nodded. "I gave you the Biling Pill so readily because it couldn't save Bilige, and certainly couldn't cure Zhao Shen's poison. But I knew Prince Yong had the antidote to Zhao Shen's poison."

Ji Yunshu recalled what Doctor Gong had said before, that there might be an antidote to the fatal Gu in this world.

It should indeed be in the hands of King Yong.

"Can you get the antidote?"

She acted interested.

Wu Rina said, "Prince Yong is cooperating with us, so we are certainly not without support. I do know the whereabouts of the antidote."

Ji Yunshu looked at her.

Wu Rina saw that although Ji Yunshu was somewhat interested, he would not give up until he got the antidote. She said helplessly, "I can find a way to get the antidote, but it will take time."

Ji Yunshu shook his head. "You no longer have any credibility with me, and I really don't have the influence you think. I advise you to talk to the court about this matter. I can't promise you anything."

Wujina was a little anxious. She didn't expect that even though it was a matter of Zhao Shen's life and death, she couldn't persuade Ji Yunshu.

But there is no way to bring this matter to light. If the Mobei court is held responsible for the war, then everything Bilige has done will be in vain.

She said sincerely, "Are you really not going to consider it? I thought Zhao Shen was very important to you. You shouldn't act on impulse at a time like this."

Ji Yunshu had seen many people who were good at PUA, but Wujina was the first person to use this method on her.

She smiled and said, "I think you're the one who's acting on impulse right now. For the sake of Bilige, you've put the entire Mobei region in such a disadvantageous position. Do you still remember your original intention?"

Ji Yunshu had no objection to brother and sister, but Wujina was no longer an ordinary woman. Her every move affected the rise and fall of the country.

She felt that running to the enemy country for someone's life at this time was just acting on impulse.

Wujina looked somewhat bewildered: "My original intention was to ensure that the people of Mobei could have enough food and clothing, but this is too difficult."

Ji Yunshu looked at her and said, "No matter how difficult the task is, we must do it step by step."

After hearing her words, Wujina was stunned for a while, not knowing what she was thinking about.

He stood up and said goodbye: "I am sorry for disturbing you today."

Ji Yunshu shook his head: "I'm just sitting around doing nothing."

Wujina hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I heard that you have some friendship with the Prince of Yong?"

Ji Yunshu immediately became wary and didn't say anything, just looked at her.

Wu Jina smiled and said, "Don't think I'm that bad. I have my own information channels and know that Xiao Kun helped you. So I want to tell you that Xiao Kun may be in danger."

Ji Yunshu thought of the person who had said goodbye to him a few days ago and said he was going to sea.

I couldn't tell whether what Wujina said was true or not.

Wujina didn't say anything more and left.

Ji Yunshu was a little worried about Xiao Kun.

Although Xiao Kun did not say it explicitly that day, she knew that Xiao Kun's killing of Zhebie must have something to do with her.

Moreover, Xiao Kun also chose to help Zhao Shen and the emperor regarding the affairs in the capital.

This forced her to accept Xiao Kun's favor.

She even had a feeling that if it weren't for her, Xiao Kun wouldn't have openly opposed Prince Yong and been caught.

Although she knew that Wujina might not have any good intentions in bringing up this matter at this time, she was still a little uneasy.

After thinking for a moment, she couldn't help it, and finally asked the secret guards around her to check Xiao Kun's whereabouts.

Wujina was very patient and did not come to see her again for the next few days.

It was the secret guard who discovered Xiao Kun's whereabouts first.

It was indeed not him who left Wuning on his own, but he was taken away from the inn by someone.

"The man who took Prince Xiao away was wearing black clothes and a mask, but his martial arts skills were quite good, and Prince Xiao offered almost no resistance."

Ji Yunshu sighed. She really didn't want to cause any trouble at this time.

"Where do those men in black come from?"

The secret guard replied, "It looks like someone from Prince Yong's Palace."

"picture?"

It was the first time that Ji Yunshu heard the secret guard say such ambiguous words.

If it is, it is; if it is not, it is not. What does "like" mean?

The secret guard said, "Those people have never appeared before, so their whereabouts and origins are a mystery. My subordinates have analyzed that the only people who can capture Prince Xiao and make him unable to resist are those from Prince Yong's Mansion."

So this is just speculation.

Ji Yunshu thought about it carefully and agreed with this guess.

Apart from Prince Yong's Mansion, who else would touch Xiao Kun?

Not to mention that Xiao Kun himself is not a tough guy, and not everyone can capture him easily.

Knowing this, what we need to consider now is the so-called danger of Wujina.

Xiao Kun did cause a lot of trouble for Prince Yong, but would he kill his own son for this?

Ji Yunshu couldn't say for sure.

Firstly, King Yong himself disliked this son very much, and sending him to the capital since he was young was also a way of giving up on him.

Secondly, Prince Yong has no shortage of sons. It is said that there are many princes in Prince Yong's mansion. So Prince Yong may not care about Xiao Kun's life or death at all.

Logically speaking, it is not his or her place to interfere in the affairs between father and son.

But she owed Xiao Kun so many favors, and she felt a little guilty about letting him go even though she knew he might be in danger.

Yin Ye noticed her dilemma and reminded her, "I think the Queen of Mobei has no good intentions in telling you this specifically."

"They're already enemies. Why not say one more word to make things worse for them? Besides, her goal is more than that."

They are all adults, how could they say and do things simply to cause trouble for each other?

She hadn't offended Wujina to that extent, so the other party probably wasn't that boring.

Yin Ye said, "Indeed, if we want to investigate Prince Xiao's affairs, we won't be able to care about her. Besides, if Prince finds out..."

Xiao Kun's feelings for Ji Yunshu are actually self-evident, and many people know it.

If Ji Yunshu were to make a big fuss for Xiao Kun's safety, it would be hard to say whether Zhao Shen would have no objection.

Ji Yunshu, however, didn't worry about this: "It's an open conspiracy. Never mind, let's continue to send people to look for them. I guess they took the road to Mobei, which is why Wujina discovered them. This means that Mobei is still connected to Prince Yong."

Yin Ye didn't know why Xiao Kun and Ji Yunshu had such a good relationship. She asked in confusion, "If Prince Yong was taken away by Yong's men, it shouldn't be a problem, right? Why is Madam so anxious to find someone?"

Ji Yunshu said, "Xiao Kun and Prince Yong don't have much of a father-son relationship, and now Xiao Kun has ruined a lot of his things. Do you think someone like Prince Yong will let him go?"

Yin Ye said, "But if you don't want to let him go, just send two experts to kill him. It's not easy to take him away from Wuning at this time. You can't go through all this trouble just to bring him back and kill him, right?"

Ji Yunshu suddenly understood: "You are right, Xiao Kun's life is not in danger for the time being. We can slowly look for someone."

Yin Ye: “…”

What she wanted to say was that Xiao Kun's life was not in danger, and they didn't need to worry about the rest.

They were not that familiar with Prince Yong.

Who knew Ji Yunshu was determined to find the person?
