Chapter 57 She Wants More People to Survive
Ji Yunshu held his chin with one hand and said, "My assassination attempt probably has nothing to do with Xiao Kun, but it's hard to say about the Hell King's Palace."
No one would believe that there was no one behind such a suddenly emerging killer organization.
If it is Prince Yong's Palace, it would not be surprising.
Zhao Shen looked at the bustling crowd outside, his eyes becoming dark. "My actions over the years couldn't have left no traces. If we investigate, we'll always find clues. But it doesn't matter. Don't we know their details?"
In his previous life, he was in the light while others were in the dark, and he never understood how many things happened until his death.
But now, for him, Prince Yong's Mansion has been exposed.
Ji Yunshu looked at Zhao Shen and suddenly felt a little fortunate.
She is not walking this road alone.
When he returned to the mansion, Ji Yunshu learned from the servants that Zhao Heng had been punished by Yao and was under house arrest.
She couldn't help but ask Zhao Shen, "Didn't you say she wanted to resolve this matter properly? How would locking Zhao Heng up count as a proper resolution?"
The smile on Zhao Shen's lips was filled with unspeakable sarcasm. "Do you think the Yao family can really keep Zhao Heng locked up if he doesn't want to?"
Ji Yunshu was stunned for a moment, then realized that Zhao Heng was no longer a child and still had some skills. If he didn't want to, the Yao family would not be able to keep him locked up.
"You mean, Yao will personally take action?"
"Don't you think Yao Ruolan won't agree to be Wei Yuanmin's maid? What if Yao comes forward and uses Zhao Heng's future to persuade her and promises her the future she wants?"
Thinking of the experience of the original owner in the book, Ji Yunshu felt a chill in his heart. So now the cannon fodder original wife has become Wei Yuanmin?
Zhao Shen seemed to see her reluctance and consoled her, "Don't sympathize with Wei Yuanmin. Compared to you marrying in without knowing anything, she at least had a choice. Even if you tell Wei Yuanmin about the Yao mother and son's plan now, she won't believe you. Besides, Wei Yuanmin is not you. How do you know she doesn't have plans of her own?"
Ji Yunshu suddenly woke up. Yes, Wei Yuanmin in the book was crazy about love for Zhao Heng, which caused a lot of trouble to the original owner. Later, he met a miserable end because of murdering Yao Ruolan.
Whether she marries Zhao Heng or not, nothing will change.
In that case, why should I sympathize with her?
Zhao Shen had long discovered that Ji Yunshu was incompatible with this world.
Just like everyone thought that having an extra maid was not a big deal, but she just couldn't accept it.
People all thought that the best solution to this problem was for Yao Ruolan to follow Wei Yuanmin into the Marquis' Mansion, but Ji Yunshu seemed to not want Yao Ruolan to do so.
This was not because she hated Yao Ruolan, but because she truly felt that even if Yao Ruolan had no status and lived outside, it would still be better than being a maid in the Marquis's mansion.
In fact, if possible, she might even prefer Yao Ruolan to leave Zhao Heng.
But she seemed very sure that Yao Ruolan would not leave Zhao Heng.
Zhao Shen felt that she might not even be aware of how contradictory she was.
He patted her head and said, "If you can't figure it out, forget it. It's not a big deal anyway. I heard you want to open a clinic to accommodate the people from Taiqing Temple. Have you found a good place yet?"
Ji Yunshu was not the type to get entangled. After all, these things had nothing to do with her. She could just wait and watch the show. There was no need for her to get involved.
But what Zhao Shen said made her feel a little distressed: "Not yet. My trousseau shop can't be vacated for the time being, and there's nothing suitable to buy now. Bai Ling has looked at several stores, but she's not satisfied with any of them."
Zhao Shen said, "Land in the capital is extremely expensive, and good shops rarely come on the market. It's naturally not easy to buy a shop right now. I do have a shop that's still vacant. Would you like to take a look?"
Ji Yunshu looked at him in confusion: "How come you happen to have time to open a shop?"
Zhao Shen said, "It was my mother's dowry. The previous owner took advantage of me because I was disabled, so he pocketed the money. The business hasn't been doing well these years. I checked the accounts a few days ago and found there was no need to keep it open, so I fired the owner and the shop has been vacant ever since."
This kind of thing is not uncommon. When Ji Yunshu checked the dowry, he also found many problems. However, the person in charge was either a servant of the Ji family or someone who had signed a death contract and sold himself to the family.
Although he had some small thoughts, he didn't dare to go too far. Ji Yunshu was short of people now and had no replacement candidates, so he gave the person a training and continued to use him.
These days, she has also gained a general understanding of the world.
I gradually had an idea in my mind about how to use the industry I have.
"Then I'll ask Bai Ling to go take a look when he's free. If you have anyone knowledgeable about medicine, you can recommend a few to me."
Zhao Shen was puzzled: "It's just a clinic, what do you need so many people for?"
The capital city is different from other places. Many imperial doctors come from medical families. Most of these families run clinics and have reputations and connections accumulated over several generations, so naturally there is no shortage of customers.
Bai Ling and the people at Taiqing Temple were indeed excellent doctors, but they had no names and were still quite young, so it was estimated that not many people would come to visit them.
Ji Yunshu leaned back in his chair, gazing at the azure sky overhead. For the first time, he confided his thoughts to Zhao Shen: "I know there won't be many patients at the beginning, and my purpose in opening a clinic isn't to make money."
She came from the future and knew hundreds of ways to make money, and opening a clinic was not a good choice.
"If not for making money? Then what for?"
He knew that Ji Yunshu originally wanted to open a clinic to provide shelter for the orphans adopted by Taiqing Temple.
He also thought this was a good idea, as it would give those people something to do and also generate income. If it could continue to operate, more people would benefit from it in the future.
Ji Yunshu raised his hand to block the dazzling sunlight from the horizon and said, "I heard from my eldest brother that the army is short of doctors. Many soldiers don't die on the battlefield, but die from delayed medical treatment after being injured. I want to train a group of doctors and send them to the army. If possible, I will purchase more medicinal herbs, as the army has always been short of them."
"Although there are many medical clinics in the capital, many people simply cannot afford medical treatment. I want to lower the prices of medicines in medical clinics so that more people can afford it."
Ji Yunshu felt that since she had come here, she couldn't just stay in the backyard. She had to do something to worry about how to survive.
What she said was simple, but Zhao Shen understood what her clinic was meant to carry.
Because they all understand what will happen to this land in the next one or two years.
She wanted more people to survive.
After Ji Yunshu finished speaking, seeing that Zhao Shen hadn't responded for a long time, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you laughing at me in your heart for dreaming?"
What she said may not have been thought about by everyone in this world, but because it is thankless, no one is willing to do it.
After all, this may affect the interests of many people.
Zhao Shen raised his eyes to look at Ji Yunshu lying on the chair. The sunlight fell on her, and her whole body seemed to be glowing.
His eyes were attracted by the light and he didn't want to look away even though it hurt his eyes.
The surroundings were silent. Zhao Shen spoke slowly amidst his uncontrolled heartbeat: "How could that be? I think you will do well."
