Chapter 587 The Last Chance
Zhao Shen didn't care much: "Those people will naturally not give up their own interests obediently, and Prince Yong will not let it go. I should still be busy after the New Year."
Prince Yong's power has not been completely eliminated and remains a hidden danger.
Ji Yunlan nodded: "With my father here, you don't have to worry about the war. As for those people who are hiding their heads and showing their tails, they are indeed a bit troublesome, but with your ability, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Zhao Shen laughed: "You have confidence in me."
"I can't help it. Who made Ah Shu trust you? These days, whenever I think about the cause and effect of your marriage, I can't help but feel a chill down my spine. To be honest, I'm very glad that she chose you in the first place."
Zhao Shen placed his last piece: "You lose."
After saying that, he stood up and picked up Ji Yunshu, who was already asleep: "Let's go back and rest first."
Ji Yunlan glanced at the chessboard. He had indeed lost, so it wasn't a surprise.
"Well, she drank quite a bit of wine. She went back to drink some hangover soup before going to sleep."
Zhao Shen responded and left with the person in his arms.
Ji Yunshu woke up after drinking the sobering soup.
Bai Ling knew her too well and knew that she would definitely drink today, so he had prepared it long ago.
Zhao Shen carried her back and called her to drink soup first.
Ji Yunshu was half asleep, but when he was woken up and drank some hangover soup, he lost his sleepiness.
She reeked of alcohol and only after taking a shower did she feel better.
Zhao Shen helped her wipe her hair and asked, "Why did you drink so much?"
Ji Yunshu’s alcohol tolerance is actually quite good, and he won’t get drunk even if he drinks a few glasses occasionally.
But today he obviously drank a little too much.
Ji Yunshu sighed: "Cen Xi drank even more, and she even went back to the inn alone."
Zhao Shen discovered that Ji Yunshu really cared about Cen Xi: "No matter what happens, it's her own choice. There's no point in you worrying so much."
"I know, but I don't understand why she has to do this?"
She didn't understand why someone as smart as Cen Xi had to choose a difficult path.
Zhao Shen wiped her hair gently. "It's not that you don't understand, it's that you don't want to believe it. This is Cen Xi's own life. I think she must know what she is doing."
Ji Yunshu thought about it and it made sense. Cen Xi knew what kind of person Lin Huixue was, and she also knew that he was her enemy. Even if he really had any thoughts, he would never tell her.
In fact, she shouldn't interfere too much in other people's private affairs.
Ji Yunshu looked at Zhao Shen's beautiful eyes and eyebrows. He treated her very gently and even spoke with a bit more patience.
But Ji Yunshu knew that he was an extremely cold person at heart, so he could watch the things around him with a cold eye.
She couldn't help but change the subject: "Lin Huixue, have you figured out what he wants to do?"
Zhao Shen shook his head: "No matter what he wants to do, this is his last chance."
Even King Yong has already escaped death, how long can Lin Huixue continue to cause trouble?
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but reach out and touch his jade-like cheek: "You have to protect yourself."
Zhao Shen's eyes were filled with tenderness: "I thought you were going to plead for Lin Huixue on behalf of Cen Xi."
Ji Yunshu was puzzled: "Why do you have such an idea? Although I believe you, we don't know who will win or lose now, why should I plead for him?"
If Lin Huixue was just as confused as Helian Ye and was fooled by someone, she might consider letting the other person go.
But Lin Huixue's behavior touched her bottom line several times.
For example, threatening Zhao Shen with hundreds of lives, Ji Yunshu would never forgive such a thing.
Zhao Shen slowly played with her hair: "You have always been soft-hearted."
"Really? I have a limit to my soft-heartedness. At least I won't be soft-hearted towards someone like Lin Huixue."
She didn't think she was soft-hearted, she just maintained a basic respect for life.
Zhao Shen smiled and said, "That's good. Stop worrying about other people's affairs. Instead of worrying about your own affairs, why don't you think about your own affairs?"
"What do I want to think about?"
Ji Yunshu was puzzled. Although she had been a little lazy these days, she had done everything she was supposed to do.
"My father-in-law asked me about my offspring a few days ago. Ah Shu, we have been married for almost two years."
Ji Yunshu felt dazed when he heard him say this. Two years had passed by unknowingly.
She only talked to Zhao Shen about the matter of offspring once. He said he would take care of it himself, so she never worried about it again.
Although the Empress Dowager and some elders had asked about it over the past year, she never took it to heart.
She didn't expect that her father would tell Zhao Shen about this behind her back.
But then again, there are no other female elders in the family, and Dad can't ask her.
She smiled and said, "What do you say?"
Zhao Shen said, "I said the situation is unstable right now, and you're often away from home. If you're pregnant, you might be in danger."
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but want to laugh when she heard his high-sounding words: "This excuse won't convince Father, right? I'm a woman, and there's no need for me to go out while I'm pregnant. There shouldn't be any danger staying in the Marquis' Mansion."
Zhao Shen also laughed: "My father-in-law said the same thing. I had no choice but to ask the doctor. It would be safer if you gave birth a little later."
His words successfully shut Ji Changlin up. After all, in his heart, nothing was more important than Ji Yunshu's safety.
Moreover, Ji Changlin asked this to test whether Zhao Shen would take a concubine.
Zhao Shen's answers were all centered around Ji Yunshu, and he was satisfied.
Ji Yunshu calculated that he would be twenty years old after the New Year.
You can have children at this age.
Moreover, Zhao Shen's status and position are there. If they have no children after two years of marriage, troubles will probably follow.
Thinking of this, she tilted her head and asked Zhao Shen: "What do you think? Do you want a child?"
Zhao Shen touched her fair and tender cheek. The freshly washed skin felt like a peeled egg and felt very good.
He smiled and said, "If you want it, take it. If you don't want it, just wait a little longer. But you can rest assured, no matter what, I can protect you."
Ji Yunshu knew he wasn't exaggerating, so she thought about it carefully and said, "Wait a little longer. Now is not the right time. Prince Yong's followers are everywhere, hiding in the dark. If I get pregnant, I'll become your weak spot. If anything goes wrong, we'll both regret it."
Zhao Shen thought about how his mother was easily plotted against and died in childbirth, and he was still frightened by the incident. Naturally, he agreed with Ji Yunshu's statement.
"Well, then wait a little longer. You don't have to feel any pressure. If someone asks you again, just blame it on me."
Ji Yunshu's eyes widened: "Isn't it my business to get pregnant and have a child? Why are you pushing it onto you?"
Besides, anyone can see that they have a good relationship, so it’s not Zhao Shen’s fault that she doesn’t have children.
Zhao Shen pinched her cheek and said, "Stupid, my legs were useless before. Isn't it normal to have some problems?"
Ji Yunshu: “…”
So Zhao Shen is implying that she can spread rumors saying that he is not capable?
