Chapter 642 Another Secret
Zhao Shen patted her head and smiled, "Of course it's from your past words and deeds. You spared Zhao Heng and Yao Ruolan. In Mobei, Wu Rina also attacked you several times, but you didn't bother with her. And then there's the clinic you opened, and the manor that specializes in taking in abandoned children..."
Ji Yunshu: "This has nothing to do with being soft-hearted. It's just doing what I can do."
Zhao Shen could see that she really didn't think she had done anything remarkable, but as far as he knew, the medicine in her clinic was the cheapest in the whole capital, and the doctors provided free consultations.
In the past two years, we have saved many people who could not afford medical treatment.
There is also a village that takes in children. In just two years, it has taken in hundreds of children. He was shocked when he found out.
At this rate, they will actually be able to gather a group of people very quickly.
But Ji Yunshu had no intention of using them for anything, and he even sent someone to teach them how to make a living.
"But in the eyes of others, these things are proof that you are soft-hearted."
Ji Yunshu said indifferently: "Whatever, do you know why she asked me to do it?"
Yu Qi was going to be exiled tomorrow, and Ji Yunshu didn't understand why she was looking for him at this time.
If we are going to find someone, we should look for Zhao Shen.
Zhao Shen seemed to understand what she was thinking and tapped her forehead with his hand: "Don't let your imagination run wild. She knows I won't see her."
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the Ministry of Justice prison.
Yu Qi was looking for Ji Yunshu, so Zhao Shen stayed in the carriage.
Ji Yunshu walked through the long corridor of the prison and stopped at the innermost room with the jailer.
The jailer pointed at the group of people huddled together inside and said, "This is it. Ask me anything you want to know. I'll be leaving first."
Ji Yunshu nodded, and he went out like a flash.
Having been a prison guard for many years, he has his own rules for preserving his life: he doesn't listen to what he shouldn't listen to, and he doesn't look at what he shouldn't look at.
Yu Qi was wearing a clean prison uniform and didn't look like he had suffered any torture. It was a little unbelievable.
After all, she is such a beautiful girl.
She looked up when she heard the noise: "You're here."
Her voice was a little hoarse, but still pleasant.
Ji Yunshu nodded: "Do you have anything to say to me?"
Yu Qi looked at Ji Yunshu steadily: "I don't want to go into exile."
She knew why she was receiving special treatment in prison.
If she still chose not to say anything, she would never be able to reach the place of exile alive.
"You should ask Zhao Shen for this."
Yu Qi said sincerely: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have disturbed you before."
Ji Yunshu looked into her eyes and saw that they were full of honesty.
"I admit that I don't like you, but this emotion won't affect anything. If you have enough bargaining chips, just go talk to Zhao Shen."
Yu Qi shook his head: "He won't come to see me, nor will he agree to my conditions, but I think if you can get the antidote, my life or death should not be a big deal to you."
Ji Yunshu nodded. She really didn't care about Yu Qi's life or death.
As long as she can save Zhao Shen, she is willing to give it a try.
"Then tell me what you want to use to save your life."
Yu Qi curled his lips in self-mockery: "I never thought I would end up like this."
When she came to the capital, she was full of confidence. Even though she knew a lot about Ji Yunshu and Zhao Shen, she still felt that it would not be difficult to take down Zhao Shen.
After all, she is smart and beautiful, and she is always successful in dealing with men.
Who knew Zhao Shen was such a person.
He is like stagnant water, not interested in any woman, and only has Ji Yunshu in his heart.
At first, he was still interested in dealing with her, but once she provoked Ji Yunshu, he immediately turned against her.
She was even somewhat thankful that Zhao Shen had no interest in her, otherwise she would have died without knowing how.
Ji Yunshu looked at her quietly without saying a word, waiting for her next words.
Yu Qi knew that she had no interest in these things, so he had to ask directly: "If I tell you I know, will you keep me alive?"
Ji Yunshu raised an eyebrow: "It depends on what you said. You also said that I am not interested in your life. If what you said is valuable enough, I don't mind letting you go."
Yu Qi seemed to understand that he had no room for bargaining and said directly, "I don't know where the antidote to the Death Gu is, but I know another secret about the poison in Prince Zhao."
Ji Yunshu intuitively felt that the thing that Yu Qi threw out to save his life must be very important.
"What secret?"
Yu Qi lowered his voice and said, "The prince has an illegitimate child in the capital. You should know who that person is. What I want to say is that you'd better not touch him, and even protect him."
Ji Yunshu: "...Why?"
This statement is very contradictory. The illegitimate son of King Yong is of course Zhao Heng.
Considering their relationship with Zhao Heng, they have already done their best by not killing him, so why are they still protecting him?
Are you kidding me?
However, Ji Yunshu felt that Yu Qi would not say such a thing for no reason.
Yu Qi twitched his lips and smiled: "Because the mother Gu of the fatal Gu is in that person, if he dies, Prince Zhao will also die."
As soon as he saw Ji Yunshu's expression when she heard this, Yu Qi knew that she didn't know about this.
Some people gloated and said, "This is related to Prince Zhao's life. Is this news enough to buy my life?"
Although there were some misjudgments, overall, Yu Qi still understood Ji Yunshu.
She always keeps her word.
Sure enough, Ji Yunshu was only confused for a moment before nodding and saying, "Enough."
She finally understood why Lord Zhao was keeping his troops inactive.
Zhao Shen's life is tied to Zhao Heng's, so there is no point in touching the Yao family.
Ji Yunshu came out of the prison and saw Zhao Shen reading a book in the carriage.
Only when he saw Ji Yunshu coming out did he put down the book in his hand and pull him into the carriage.
Seeing that she was a little distracted, he asked, "What did she say?"
There is nothing that cannot be said, and Zhao Shen must know about this.
So Ji Yunshu said it directly.
But when she finished speaking, Zhao Shen didn't react at all. He handed her a cup of tea and said, "Try it. This is this year's new tea."
Ji Yunshu: “…”
She finally reacted: "Did you know this a long time ago?"
Zhao Shen said calmly, "I have some guesses. Yao is an extremely intelligent person, but since I was poisoned, I can't guarantee Zhao Heng's life. So, I tied myself to him to ensure Zhao Heng's safety."
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but sigh. Zhao Heng was truly the male protagonist. The world simply revolved around him.
She was a little angry: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? What if I accidentally killed Zhao Heng?"
She disliked Zhao Heng and could kill him at any time.
Zhao Shen found her angry look inexplicably cute.
Maybe she herself didn't even realize how much she worried about his safety.
"You won't. You didn't do it when you hated him the most, let alone now."
If we were to say when Ji Yunshu hated Zhao Heng the most, it was probably during the days when he first traveled through time.
At that time, nothing here felt real to her. The only thing that made her deeply anxious was that Zhao Heng might kill her entire family.
