Chapter 458: Wujina's Conspiracy
Ji Yunshu was infected by the passion in his words and asked the waiter to bring up a jar of wine.
"Mr. Huo, I offer you a toast."
After saying that, she raised her head and drank the glass of wine.
After these words, Huo Cong's discomfort in her presence disappeared without a trace.
He also drank the wine generously and said with a smile: "Mr. Ming is so lucky to marry a wife like you who believes that women are as good as men."
He felt that since Zhao Shen had released the person to do the job, he would not mind the woman walking around outside.
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "There are tens of thousands of women in this world, many of whom are as talented as men, yet they are confined to the backyard all day long and unable to display their talents. I am lucky to have married her."
She could feel that Zhao Shen didn't want her to come, not because he had any prejudice against women, but purely because he was worried about her safety.
It wasn't obvious in Suzhou, and he could agree to them traveling separately when they first went to Southern Xinjiang, but this time, he almost wanted to protect her every step of the way.
It seemed that the deeper his feelings for her grew, the less he could bear her being away from him for too long.
Ji Yunshu was actually a little confused. It was impossible for ordinary couples to be so affectionate all the time. There would always be some bumps and bruises.
But Zhao Shen was extremely tolerant of her and took care of her in every possible way.
When the two of them disagree, there is no need to argue, Zhao Shen will just listen to her.
She was very skeptical. Is this what a normal couple is like?
But since there was no normal couple around for her to refer to, she couldn't tell what was wrong, so she could only leave it this way for now.
Liu Yan was somewhat envious of their relationship. For men and women from aristocratic families, marriage was a transaction. She had never seen a couple with such a good relationship.
Huo Chong had never expected to hear such words from Ji Yunshu. He said with some nostalgia, "My brother and his wife were also so loving when they first got married. What a pity..."
Halfway through his words, he realized that what he said was ominous and stopped talking.
Ji Yunshu smiled but said nothing.
Huo Cong acted quickly, and Ji Yunshu received his message in the evening.
One of the two people pointed out by Liu Yan got in touch with the people in the Fifth Prince's Mansion and asked Ji Yunshu what to do?
Zhao Shen happened to be there, so Ji Yunshu handed him the letter. "This Huo Cong is indeed a talent. He has a sharp mind and is efficient in his work."
Zhao Shen read the letter expressionlessly. "That's right. His subordinates won't be easily exposed for the time being. I'll have someone handle this."
Ji Yunshu nodded: "All right, what are you going to do?"
Zhao Shen said: "Just arrest him directly."
Ji Yunshu didn't know why he felt that Zhao Shen seemed a little impatient.
He seldom does things in such a crude and crude way.
"Is this okay? This is Mobei Royal City after all. They're still investigating Mi Jian's murderer. This guy is so easy to take. Who knows if he's just bait?"
Zhao Shen patted her head and said, "Not bad, you know how to think so much."
Ji Yunshu glared at him: "I'm not stupid."
She just doesn't like to think too much, it's not that she can't think of it.
Now they are in Mobei, which is already very dangerous. Mi Jian's death must have aroused Bilige's vigilance.
It's not impossible that he used this man as bait to lure them to death.
After all, they did not come to Mobei openly, so even if they died here, Mobei would not need to explain to Daxia.
Thinking of this, Ji Yunshu felt that they should be more cautious.
Zhao Shen smiled and said, "For Bilige, his biggest opponent is ultimately Wujina. At this moment, he only wants to deal with Wujina."
Ji Yunshu didn't understand what he meant: "So what? Dealing with Wu Rina won't prevent him from dealing with us, right?"
Ji Yunshu felt that if Bilige really cared about whether he could fight the war with Daxia, he might start by dealing with them first.
And he is cooperating with King Yong?
Prince Yong must want to kill them both at any cost now.
Zhao Shen said, "But things have their priorities. The King of Mobei has been drugged by Wu Rina, and he probably won't be able to hold on for much longer. If he can't get rid of Wu Rina quickly, it's hard to say who will take over the throne."
Wujina was the queen's daughter, the most noble and legitimate daughter, with full legitimacy and the support of the Ulan tribe.
Bilige is different. In a place like Mobei, his upper body actually destined him to have no chance of becoming king.
Even with the King of Mobei paving the way, it would be difficult for him to ascend the throne smoothly.
In Zhao Shen’s memory of his previous life, he was able to succeed entirely because of his unexpected approach.
The Queen and Wujina did not take him seriously, so they were plotted against by him without realizing it.
In this life, he reminded the queen early on, allowing the conspiracy of King Mobei and Bilige to surface ahead of time.
Since he was on guard, things naturally didn't go so smoothly for him.
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but ask, "There's been no news from Wu Rina these past few days. What's going on in the royal court?"
After Wujina took the poison from her, she never appeared again.
Occasionally, when something happened, Helian Ye would come to deliver the message.
Zhao Shen probably didn't want her to get involved in these matters, so he took them all on himself, leaving her with some free time.
She was too lazy to ask these days and didn't even know what the situation was outside.
Zhao Shen said slowly, "It's nothing serious. The King of Mobei wanted to threaten Wujina with the Queen, but she drugged him. The doctors at the royal court couldn't figure out what the drug was, so there's no cure. It's said that the King of Mobei has been in great pain these past few days."
Ji Yunshu was not surprised. Although the current drug testing methods seemed strict, they actually had many loopholes.
First of all, although there are people who can test poison around the King of Mobei, they cannot detect the poison unless it takes effect immediately.
The second method is to test poison with a silver needle. Some poisons will turn black when they come into contact with silver, but some will not.
Yichen now seems to have come to his senses, and his ability to make poisons has improved by leaps and bounds.
He had considered the circumstances under which Ji Yunshu would use poison, so the two commonly used methods of poisoning were basically unable to detect it.
"That means the King of Mobei and the Queen are both poisoned. But since the King of Mobei is still alive, he can't be doing nothing, right?"
Grasshoppers jump the most happily after autumn.
Zhao Shen said, "He has summoned his confidants one after another, probably hoping that they will support the Fifth Prince."
"Why estimate? He didn't do it, or is there a way for our people to find out what he said?"
Zhao Shen smiled and said, "Neither. Before he could even open his mouth, Wujina cried to everyone, saying that Bilige was plotting to take the throne and was trying to kill her in Daxia. She had finally escaped and returned to Mobei, asking everyone to make the decision for her."
Ji Yunshu couldn't help laughing. Wu Rina was indeed smart. This was a typical conspiracy.
Bilige simply couldn't refute these words.
Can he say that he did not attack Wujina?
cannot.
Because he couldn't explain clearly what happened in Daxia.
Wujina also has an ally, the third prince.
After a trip to Daxia, he found out that the two most powerful contenders for the throne had encountered trouble.
You are the only one who came back safely. Who would believe you if you said there was nothing fishy?
