Chapter 496: Fake is Fake
Bilige is not an impulsive person, so he will not be easily angered by her.
Hearing her words, his expression remained unchanged as he spoke matter-of-factly, "Madam, there's no need to pretend ignorance at this point. Since you two dared to come, don't you think I can do anything to you?"
Ji Yunshu tilted his head to look at him and found that when he spoke nicely, he seemed quite sincere.
"We've been in the General's Mansion for the past few days, but we don't know what's going on outside. If it's not too much trouble for the Fifth Prince, why don't you tell us what happened first?"
Bilige said succinctly, "Qian Rong's daughter showed up at the military camp and personally exposed the current Qian Rong as a fake."
Ji Yunshu didn't expect Qian Qian to move so quickly, and asked suspiciously, "Doesn't anyone suspect she's lying?"
She had imagined from the beginning that without solid evidence, Qian Qian would easily be accused of lying.
After all, no one wants a traitorous father. It is not only a matter of reputation, but also faces legal sanctions.
Even if Qian Rong died, his family would be implicated.
Bilige said, "The fake Qian Rong was in disguise, and his true identity was exposed in public."
Wow.
Ji Yunshu also thought about impersonating someone, and it was most likely a disguise, but now both the Prince Yong's Mansion and the people of Mobei would protect the fake Qian Rong.
She felt that it was not easy to get close to Qian Rong, let alone to uncover the disguise on his face.
Bilige seemed to know what Ji Yunshu was thinking, and glared at her sarcastically as he said, "Fake is fake. For me, the moment Qian Rong opened the city gate, it was useless. You don't think I would protect him, do you?"
At this point, he looked a little disdainful, "He's not mine."
Ji Yunshu became more certain of his previous guess that the relationship between the fifth prince of Mobei and Prince Yong's Mansion was not that close.
"Oh, so the Fifth Prince doesn't take the 5,000 troops stationed here seriously."
Linyuan is a small town with a garrison of no more than 5,000 men.
But as far as Ji Yunshu knew, Bilige didn't have many people under his command, and he didn't know where he got the confidence to think that he could take over Yongzhou without relying on Prince Yong's Mansion.
Bilige smiled and said, "It's not that I don't take them seriously, but they really can't play any role right now. You can't take back Linyuan with just that few people."
Ji Yunshu curled his lips. His consideration made sense.
He relied on a fake coin to take over Linyuan without bloodshed, but now that the attacking and defending positions have been switched, they can't rely on the defenders to take back Linyuan.
The closest places to Linyuan are Yangshuo and Gukou.
But it is obvious that both places may be Bilige's next target.
Therefore, neither Yangshuo nor Gukou could send reinforcements to recapture Linyuan.
Other places are far away and it is even more impossible.
Ji Yunshu even felt that Bilige must have made other arrangements long ago to ensure that no one would lend a helping hand to Lin Yuan at this time.
It has been so long since Linyuan fell, and the fact that there is no movement around also proves this point.
She pursed her lips and said, "Since the Fifth Prince has planned everything, why did he come to us?"
Or, since Bilige seems to have the upper hand now, why hasn't he taken action against the couple yet?
What Bilige is doing now is a big gamble. If he wins, he will be the king of Mobei.
But if you lose, you will lose everything.
And he was alone, so he should have nothing to fear.
But now it seems that he is clearly full of concerns.
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but think about his previous guess again.
Bilige looked out at the boundless sky. "Madam, you don't have to think I'm so petty. I admit that your survival is indeed a variable, but if you die, the real beneficiary may not be me. And I, Mobei, will have to bear the wrath of the Great Xia Emperor and General Ji because of this."
He had been in the capital of Daxia for such a long time that he realized that Zhao Shen was more valued by the Emperor of Daxia than the Prince Yong's Mansion thought.
Emperor Jingming asked him to marry the daughter of General Ji, so one can imagine his attitude towards the Ji family.
He also believed what Prince Yong's Mansion said at the beginning, that the emperor must be afraid of the Ji family.
But after the trip to the capital, he also realized that the emperor trusted the Ji family.
This completely destroyed the Yongwang Mansion's original plan to alienate the emperor and the Ji family.
It is impossible to frame the Ji family or kill the father and son of the Ji family directly.
Now he was in a dilemma.
He knew very well that Prince Yong's Mansion was not trustworthy, so he could not completely offend General Ji.
Therefore, even if he had the chance, he would never take action against Zhao Shen and Ji Yunshu.
Because he knew very well that neither he nor Mobei could bear the consequences of killing these two people.
Zhao Shen relied on this point to act so recklessly.
Ji Yunshu was a little surprised: "You actually care about Mobei?"
He kept calling Mobei "my Mobei". He was leaving a way out for Mobei.
Ji Yunshu discovered that Bilige's mind was clearer than she thought.
But if that’s the case, why should we fight with Wujina?
Bilige was speechless after hearing her words: "I am the prince of Mobei. Why do you think that I don't care about Mobei?"
Ji Yunshu looked him over and finally landed on his face.
This man looks sickly, but he actually has a pretty good-looking face.
Unlike the usually rough appearance of people from Mobei, he looks more elegant because of his illness.
Thinking of his experiences since childhood, Ji Yunshu sighed and said, "If I were you, I would definitely hate those who bullied me since childhood."
A smile appeared on Bilige's pale face. "I've long since taken revenge on those who bullied me. Their end was truly not good."
At this point, he looked up at Ji Yunshu, "Madam, you're just saying that. I know you're a soft-hearted person. I've heard a lot about why you married Prince Zhao. You were humiliated like that on your wedding night, but Madam, didn't you do anything to those two people?"
With Ji Yunshu's identity, it would be easy for him to deal with Zhao Heng and Yao Ruolan.
But she did nothing.
Ji Yunshu blinked: "How do you know I didn't do anything? Besides, do you think they are both doing well now?"
Zhao Heng felt that everything he did was for Yao Ruolan, but the two of them could never go back.
Wei Yuanmin would not let them go.
Even though Ji Yunshu was not in the capital, he could still predict what Zhao Heng's life would be like.
She didn't know whether Zhao Heng would regret his impulsive behavior that night, which ruined his marriage with her and led to the current situation.
But the current life is definitely not what he wants.
Bilige looked at her thoughtfully: "Madam is indeed very capable, how about we make a deal?"
His sudden turn of events left Ji Yunshu unable to react for a moment.
She didn't understand what kind of deal Bilige could make with her.
However, when Bilige was talking, his eyes fell on Zhao Shen, who had never spoken a word, and he realized that the person he really wanted to trade with was Zhao Shen.
She was chosen simply because she was easier to talk to than Zhao Shen.
