Chapter 684 A Dead End
Hearing this, Xianxian subconsciously raised her hand and touched her face: "Who are you?"
Ji Yunshu squinted his eyes as he ate the slightly sour pomegranate and said, "Has no one ever told you who your face resembles?"
There was fear in her slender eyes. Ji Yunshu's words meant that her face had been seen through before it could even be used.
"You...you are...you are..."
She was in a complicated mood and didn't know how to express herself.
Of course she knew what was going on with her face.
I heard that the lady was different from ordinary women. She had been to Suzhou, southern Xinjiang and Mobei.
Act boldly and unconventionally.
She was too careless. When a woman like this appeared in Hangzhou at this time, she didn't even think of that person.
Who would have thought?
It is said that Prince Zhao will be among the people coming this time. His wife wears men's clothes and stays on the flower boat all day long. Doesn't he care?
Ji Yunshu nodded: "Yes, it's me, so now can you tell me what's going on with your face?"
Panic suddenly surged in Xianxian's heart, and she really wanted to say that she had always looked like this.
But this was not enough reason for Ji Yunshu to let her go and let her be the top courtesan with this face.
She stammered, "I...I don't know either. They picked me out of many girls and had a doctor operate on my face. My face became like this."
Ji Yunshu was a little surprised that someone could have plastic surgery at this time.
It looks so similar.
But she also understood that those people chose Xianxian because she was somewhat similar to herself.
"What is your mission?"
It can't be to humiliate her.
In fact, if it weren't for chance, she and Xianxian would never have met.
Xianxian bit her lip and said nothing.
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Actually, I have a very good temper. It's not your fault that you look like me, right? But my husband might not think so. You know who he is, right?"
Everyone under Prince Yong knew something about Zhao Shen.
Xianxian didn't know what she was thinking about. She shuddered and finally seemed to have made up her mind: "I'll tell you everything I know. Can you give me a quick death?"
Zhao Shen was the one who could make the prince's spies speak, and Xianxian didn't think she could stand it in front of him and say nothing.
Ji Yunshu raised an eyebrow: "Why do you think I will definitely kill you?"
Xianxian smiled bitterly: "Because at this point, whether I say it or not, there is only one way out, and that is death."
Ji Yunshu shook his head and said, "As long as you tell the truth, I can spare your life."
Xianxian shook her head: "Master will not let me go."
Ji Yunshu asked, "What kind of incurable poison have you been poisoned with?"
Xianxian shook her head: "No."
Those who are controlled by poison are all very useful people. Someone like her will never be able to escape no matter what, so using poison is a waste.
"You don't think your master can live forever, do you? He's already on the brink of extinction, and you're still afraid he won't let you go?"
Ji Yunshu couldn't understand.
Xianxian: “…”
She grew up under the control of others and never thought that she would be able to escape.
To her, the person who controls her is like the sky above her head, which will never collapse.
Now Ji Yunshu told her that those people were in danger and were about to be finished.
The first thing that came to her mind was impossible.
But then I thought, what is impossible?
Although she didn't know much, she knew that Prince Zhao had never failed in his actions.
"Is Prince Zhao good at dealing with the master?"
Ji Yunshu said with a smile, "Didn't your master deliberately lure us here? With Yang Zhen alone, how could he possibly have brought this matter to the capital under the Yu family's nose?"
"You all know this, so why are you still here?"
Xianxian couldn't understand.
Knowing it is a trap, why do you jump into it?
Is it okay to go to the mountain where there is a tiger even though you know there is one?
Ji Yunshu asked in return, "Why not come? We're not the ones who need to hide everywhere because we can't see anyone. We've been looking for them for over six months. Now that we have a clue, of course we have to come and see."
Xianxian still didn't understand: "It's okay for Prince Zhao to come, but... aren't you afraid of death?"
She knew those people well, and they would do anything to achieve their goals.
In her eyes, Ji Yunshu is Zhao Shen's biggest weakness.
Ji Yunshu said, "If Prince Yong wanted to kill me, he would have already done it. Okay, let's stop talking about this nonsense. Tell me about your story. If you haven't done anything wrong, I can let you go."
Xianxian stared at her blankly, her face looking a little dull: "Are you really not worried?"
People like her, if they die, no one will care.
But Ji Yunshu is different. She was born into a marquis family and married into a marquis family. Such a life is the dream of all girls.
She took such a risk without caring about her own life.
Ji Yunshu didn't know why she was so obsessed with this, and said impatiently, "What's there to worry about? Isn't it just death? If you're afraid of danger, then lock yourself in the backyard and live a life you can't see the end of. Then what's the point of living to be old and 70?"
Xianxian asked again: "So you have also thought that you might die?"
Ji Yunshu: "What are you talking about? I don't have one more life than others, so of course I might die."
Xianxian seemed to understand something and laughed: "I used to think that God was unfair, but now I realize that when it comes to death, at least God is fair."
Ji Yunshu didn't know what was so tangled about this: "You should have seen all kinds of things in this kind of place. Take the daughters killed by Yu Chuannan, for example. There were women like you on this boat, and there were also noble ladies from aristocratic families. Well, in front of Yu Chuannan, you are all equal. Are you happy?"
Xianxian: "Have you found out about this?"
Ji Yunshu said unhappily, "If I can't find out, won't that be a waste of all you've told me?"
Xianxian felt a little guilty: "I took advantage of you, I'm sorry."
Ji Yunshu looked at her and said, "You don't need to apologize to me. I don't know why you told me those things, but we did save a lot of people because of this."
If Yu Chuannan dies, there will be fewer victims in the future.
They indirectly saved many lives.
Xianxian said, "I... this is the master's order. I've been worried these past few days. What if something happens to you because of what I said..."
Ji Yunshu was a little confused: "Why is Prince Yong so eager to get rid of the Yu family?"
Xianxian shook her head: "This kind of thing is not something I can know. Before my face became like this, I didn't even know that my master was Prince Yong."
Ji Yunshu also knew that she couldn't possibly know too many core secrets, so he asked, "Then tell me, what exactly is your mission?"
