Chapter 569: It's fate
Ji Yunshu took a piece of meat with chopsticks, and his mouth was full of chili oil, and his lips and teeth were filled with a numbing and spicy taste.
I couldn't stand the spiciness and drank a sip of water, but I was very satisfied: "There's nothing a hot pot can't solve."
Wujina looked at the snow outside and asked, "Are you really not worried at all?"
Prince Yong must be fully confident in dealing with Ji Yunshu.
Their trap may be the bait that is delivered to your door.
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "It's only a matter of time before Prince Yong takes action here. If something happens to me even in my own home, then it's probably fate. The only thing I can do now is to eat and drink my fill and die a full death."
Wujina smiled and said, "It seems that you are very sure that you will be fine. Is it because of Zhao Shen, he will come back?"
She knew that Zhao Shen was very powerful, but what good was a powerful person if he was not around?
Counting the days, if Zhao Shen rushes here as soon as the matter in the capital of Daxia is settled, he should be here soon.
Unexpectedly, Ji Yunshu shook his head and said, "I never put all my hopes on others."
At the critical moment of life and death, if you rely on others to save you, you will probably not survive for long.
There was a smile on her face when she spoke, but Wujina noticed that there was no smile in her eyes.
I couldn't help but be shocked. The daughter of the Ji family who was said to be pampered and loved by Zhao Shen after her marriage did not seem to be what people saw.
Although she felt that Ji Yunshu was not as innocent and kind as she seemed, she also envied her good luck.
She has a family who loves her and a husband who is devoted to protecting her.
This is probably the person God favors.
But now she felt that she had caught a glimpse of a corner that others had never seen.
"Don't you believe your family and Zhao Shen can protect you?"
She asked in disbelief.
In fact, considering the environment Ji Yunshu grew up in, she was surprised that she was not a spoiled noble lady of Great Xia.
Ji Yunshu took a sip of wine. Although Ji Yunlan spoiled her, he had something going on tonight, so he naturally wouldn't let her do whatever she wanted.
When she asked for wine, someone brought her a jar of fruit wine suitable for women.
It tastes sweet, and only after it enters your stomach can you slowly feel a warmth traveling through your lungs. After a few cups, your body will feel warm and comfortable.
She smiled and answered Wujina's question: "Of course I believe it, but things in the world are unpredictable. Who can guarantee that they will always protect anyone? You are trying so hard to save Bilige. Could it be that you promised him that you would protect him forever? Can you do it now?"
Wujina looked at Ji Yunshu's rosy cheeks and bright eyes. She looked calm when she said these words.
A sentence suddenly popped up in her mind: believe in fate, but don't succumb to it.
Ji Yunshu was surrounded by flowers, but he lived more soberly than anyone else.
She poured herself a full glass of wine and raised it to Ji Yunshu: "You are the most special person I have ever met."
She drank the entire glass in one gulp, then said with a melancholy look, "When I was young, I always thought I could do anything, so I didn't hesitate to make promises to others. When I saved him, he was obviously several years older than me, but he looked so thin and small, with scars all over his body, visible and invisible. At that time, I told him that I would protect him forever."
A flash of water flashed in her eyes, and she continued, "You're right. No one can protect anyone forever. Even if I risk my life now, the chances of saving him are slim."
Ji Yunshu never thought that one day, Wu Rina would actually tell her her true feelings.
She had no choice but to comfort him: "You have tried your best. He won't blame you for breaking your promise."
Wujina smiled and said, "I know that he didn't take my words to heart. He has been protecting me all these years. So this time, I want to give it a try."
Ji Yunshu sighed. Even after saying this, Ji Yunshu still couldn't tell what kind of feelings Wujina had for Bilige.
But no matter what, Bilige is a very important person to her.
Before I knew it, the sky outside had become completely dark. Lanterns were lit under the eaves, casting a warm yellow light all around.
A gust of wind blew, and snowflakes danced in the light like shooting stars.
She suddenly lost the desire to explore gossip.
"Maybe in time."
Wujina also looked out the window: "Here it comes."
Ji Yunshu turned to look at her: "Are you afraid? Maybe we will die here."
Since King Yong's men have taken action, they should be confident.
If we can't kill them today, the war between Daxia and Mobei will end here.
Wujina raised her glass again and said, "If you're not afraid, why should I be afraid?"
Ji Yunshu blinked: "My life or death is irrelevant, but you are the king of Mobei?"
Wujina was very self-aware and said, "But in the eyes of King Yong, I, the King of Mobei, am probably not as valuable as you. Believe me, if he had the chance, he would kill me, but he would definitely spare your life."
If the king of Mobei dies, another one can be replaced, but General Ji only has one daughter.
Ji Yunshu poured a glass of wine and toasted her with a smile.
There was a faint sound of fighting outside. Wu Jina frowned and asked, "You came in so soon?"
She thought that with the ability of the Ji family guards, they could at least hold out for a while.
Ji Yunshu explained, “Today we must contain all the fighting within the mansion.”
This was the strategy she and Ji Yunlan had agreed upon. Once the fight started, there would inevitably be casualties.
Although there weren't many people outside at this time, ordinary people shouldn't be involved in this kind of thing.
Wujina looked at Fengxue and murmured, "Are you trying to catch a turtle in a jar? How could the King of Yong's men be so easily fooled?"
"Of course they won't be fooled easily, but firstly, I haven't left the house at all these days, so they won't have a chance to do so. Secondly, no matter where I go, I'll always have guards around me, and they don't have time."
We can only fight head-on.
Wujina's expression turned serious: "It seems that the person coming tonight must be very powerful."
Ji Yunshu nodded: "There should be a killer move. I also want to see where Prince Yong's confidence comes from."
She has encountered many assassination attempts in the past year, most of which were related to Prince Yong's Mansion.
But most of the level is just like that.
Of course, it is also possible that the other party has underestimated their strength.
After so many attempts, now that the person has come this time, he should not fail again.
Sure enough, after a while, the sounds of fighting outside became clearer and clearer, and it was obvious that they were approaching Ji Yunshu's yard.
Wujina listened attentively for a while: "It seems that there are a lot of people coming."
This was also within Ji Yunshu's expectations: "It seems that they really invested a lot of money this time."
Because of its special geographical location and the presence of Ji Changlin, Wuning will be under martial law in the event of war.
The Prince Yong's Mansion was able to mobilize so many people to carry out the assassination under such circumstances. These people are obviously very capable.
Wu Rina also thought: "These people are probably not ordinary. Are you sure your guards can handle them?"
Although she asked this, there was no sign of worry or fear on her face. It seemed more like she was just casually chatting.
