Chapter 564: Life-saving Conditions
She admitted that she had been a little emotional.
So this time, her attitude was obviously much better.
Wujina could tell almost as soon as she saw her: "You seem to be in a good mood today."
Ji Yunshu nodded: "My brother is back. Although he was injured, it's not serious."
Wujina knew clearly that even if Bilige had only injured Ji Yunlan, he must have paid a heavy price.
At the same time, he was glad that Ji Yunlan was only injured. Even if he really died at this time, it would not affect the overall situation.
After all, Ji Changlin is still here.
But if Ji Yunlan really died, Da Xia would probably continue to fight to the death.
She didn't know if Ji Yunshu was reminding her of something, so she followed her words and said, "I received the news earlier that General Ji was injured in the leg. On the battlefield, swords have no eyes, so this is unavoidable."
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "On the battlefield, life and death are your own responsibility. I understand this principle."
In this case, Bilige should be responsible for his own life and death.
Wujina took a sip of tea and slowly said, "I can't stay here for too long. I may have to leave in a day or two. Before that, I hope to have a good talk with you."
Ji Yunshu said without further ado: "I know what you mean. I can spare Bilige's life, but what price can you pay? What you said before is not enough."
Wu Rina discovered that Ji Yunshu had adjusted his mindset after just a few days of not seeing him.
She had indeed hoped that Ji Yunshu could face her rationally, but now when she really put aside their friendship and only talked about the deal, an indescribable emotion surged in her heart.
After a moment of stunned silence, she came to her senses and said, "What I mentioned before was that I would discuss it with the Great Xia court after the war. If nothing unexpected happens, the envoy should be your husband. As for what we are talking about now, it is what I need to pay to protect Bilige privately."
Ji Yunshu pondered for a moment and said, "When I met Bilige before, he said in person that he wouldn't live long. The current situation is also very clear. He is waiting to die. Even if you agree to my conditions, he may not survive."
Wujina suddenly smiled and said calmly, "This is why I'm anxious to leave here. His body really can't hold on any longer. He's dragging on and refusing to end the war, and he's really waiting to die. But I will do my best to save him. Tell me your terms."
Ji Yunshu asked hesitantly, "Do you have any way to save him?"
Wu Jina nodded: "Yes, I have a secret medicine developed by the witch doctor. It may not be able to cure him, but it can at least delay his recovery for a while."
After she finished speaking, seeing Ji Yunshu looking at her with burning eyes, she suddenly thought of the poison in Zhao Shen's body, and she explained, "This medicine was specially developed by the witch doctor for many years according to his physical condition. He survived before by relying on similar medicines, but those medicines are no longer effective."
In other words, this medicine is only effective for Bilige, but not for Zhao Shen.
Ji Yunshu didn't say anything.
Wu Rina had no choice but to continue, "What I said before still stands. I can help you get the antidote to the fatal poison in Prince Yong's hands."
If it was before, Ji Yunshu would indeed consider this condition, but now, she doesn't trust Wu Rina.
I also don't want this antidote to fall into the hands of people from Mobei again.
Since she knew that the antidote did exist and was in Prince Yong's hands, she could find a way to get it herself.
Instead of trusting others, it is better to rely on yourself.
"No need. I'll find a way to get the antidote myself. If you want to protect Bilige, you can exchange it for something."
"What?"
Ji Yunshu took the map from Yin Ye behind him and pointed to a circled area on it for Wu Rina to see: "This place will be ceded to Da Xia."
The place she pointed to was twice as large as the one Ji Yunlan wanted. In addition to confusing her, the more important reason was that Ji Yunshu felt that when it came to territory, the more it could be taken.
It looks like a barren land now, but who knows what use it might be in the future.
Wujina looked at the map carefully. That place bordered Daxia and was a natural barrier because it was backed by mountains. However, it was also very sparsely populated.
She couldn't help but wonder why Ji Yunshu wanted such a barren land.
Ji Yunshu said, "You have a lot of places like this in Mobei. They're not very populated, so it's okay to give them to us, right?"
Wujina thought about it for a while but came to no conclusion. She had never even been to this place and was not familiar with it at all.
Moreover, Mobei is different from Daxia. For the emperor of Daxia, even if he has never been there or knows nothing about the entire territory of Daxia, it is still part of the world.
But for the king of Mobei, many places are controlled by local tribes, and sometimes they are not under the control of the royal court at all.
But Wu Rina always felt that the things that Ji Yunshu valued were not that simple.
"Can you give me some time to think about it?"
Ji Yunshu spread his hands and said, "Of course, I'm not in a hurry."
After receiving clear conditions, Wujina said goodbye and left.
Ji Yunshu looked at her back, wondering how important Bilige was in Wujina's heart.
Yin Ye put the map away and asked, "Give her time to think about it. Will she discover anything?"
If Wujina discovered that there was iron ore there, how could she agree to cede the land to Daxia?
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Bilige's health is very poor. She doesn't have much time to think about it, let alone discover anything in a short time. Even if she did find out, she would agree."
She felt that the fact that Wujina was willing to make this trip regardless of her own safety showed that Bilige was really important to her.
Under such circumstances, she should not ignore Bilige's life or death.
So, as long as her conditions are not too excessive, she will agree.
Now all he wants is a piece of land, which should be an acceptable condition for Wujina.
As for the possibility of mineral deposits inside, she felt that Wujina should be able to guess it.
Otherwise, what would she do with a barren piece of land?
On the other side, Wujina left the general's mansion and returned to her residence.
The people waiting inside saw her come back and asked anxiously, "How is it? Did she agree?"
If Ji Yunshu doesn't give in, the war will not stop. If it goes on any longer, Bilige will really die.
Wujina sat down and drank a cup of tea before telling Ji Yunshu about her conditions.
The man asked doubtfully, "You want a piece of land? Is there anything special about that piece of land?"
Wu Jina shook her head. "It's very close to Daxia, not crowded, and not affected by the war. That's all I know. We probably don't have time to investigate the rest."
"What do you think is going on?"
Although the man was anxious, his tone was respectful and it was obvious that he still respected Wujina very much.
Wu Jina placed the teacup on the table and said softly, "There are only a few possibilities. Either the geographical location has some advantages that we can't see, or there is something else."
"What?"
