Chapter 497: Delivered to the Door
She blinked. "If I remember correctly, we have already made a deal, but you haven't fulfilled your promise yet."
We agreed to let them go, but they have been kept under house arrest here.
Even though he had walked into a trap himself, Ji Yunshu felt that he should still complain when the time came.
Bilige now understood that there was no point in trapping people here.
They did everything they should do.
On the contrary, because people are here, no matter what happens outside, they can completely deny it.
Bilige didn't like doing meaningless things, so he simply said, "You two can leave here at any time. I promise I won't do anything."
Ji Yunshu looked at him suspiciously: "Will someone tamper with this?"
She knew that someone desperately wanted her and Zhao Shen to die here.
Bilige smiled and said, "With your abilities, you shouldn't have to worry. So, Madam, would you consider making a deal with me?"
Ji Yunshu went to see Zhao Shen.
Bilige gave her a complicated feeling, and such people were generally uncontrollable.
Zhao Shen then said, "I wonder what kind of deal the Fifth Prince wants to make?"
Bilige said: "I know what the prince wants from me. If the prince can agree to my request, I can give you what you want."
Ji Yunshu didn't expect him to be so straightforward.
Zhao Shen also fell silent.
Bilige took a sip of tea and continued, "Although I wanted to lead the army to attack Daxia, so far, I haven't done anything I shouldn't have done. Even General Qian's death was not my fault."
Ji Yunshu felt that he was simply taking advantage of the situation.
He took a city without bloodshed and is still pretending to be innocent.
But he soon thought that Prince Yong's Mansion would definitely not do so much for him for no reason.
Zhao Shen came to the General's Mansion indeed to find evidence of collusion between him and Prince Yong's Mansion from Bilige.
But Bilige was a very cautious man, and the guards around him were so tight that no loopholes could be found.
He had been thinking about how to take action against Bilige these past two days, but he didn't expect that he would come to him himself.
Zhao Shen was now extremely wary of this kind of situation, and said calmly, "Is the Fifth Prince planning to betray his allies?"
Bilige said without a trace of embarrassment: "As you Daxia people say, aren't allies meant to be betrayed?"
Seeing that he was rather nonchalant, Zhao Shen frowned and said, "Fifth Prince, how can anyone be confident in doing business with you when you're like this?"
This time it was Bilige who remained silent. No one knew what he was thinking, and the gloomy expression on his pale face was not concealed at all.
The room was completely silent. After an unknown amount of time, Bilige finally gave a wry smile and said, "Don't worry, my lord. Everyone knows I won't live much longer. The initiative in this transaction is in your hands."
"It is said that when the fifth prince was very young, the doctor said that you would not live long, but you are still alive now."
Zhao Shen always felt that Bilige's physical condition was a mystery. It looked like he would die at any time, but the King of Mobei was dead, and he was still alive.
He must be hanging on to something.
As the weather got cooler, Bilige looked even worse. After sitting for a while, he seemed as if he could not hold on any longer.
He panted a little and said, "This time it's true, and I will give you what the prince wants. I will never break my promise."
After saying this, he closed his eyes before continuing, "I can guarantee that with these things, Prince Yong will definitely not escape the crime of collaborating with the enemy. And if I don't take them out, you will never find them."
Zhao Shen was puzzled. "If I'm not mistaken, you'll still have to rely on Prince Yong's Mansion for help, right? What good will it do you to betray him so early?"
Bilige looked at Zhao Shen, his pale face expressionless as he said nonchalantly, "I'm dying. It doesn't matter to me whether there are benefits or not."
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but roll his eyes: "I remember the prince said before that even if you die tomorrow, you still have to do what you have to do."
Bilige nodded: "Yes, so now I am still doing what I should do."
Ji Yunshu was stunned for a moment, and she suddenly understood that what Bilige said should be done might not be to attack Daxia and fulfill his own ambition.
At this moment, she even doubted whether Bilige really had any ambitions?
Zhao Shen thought for a moment and found that he had no reason to refuse.
What Bilige said was true. If he didn't come forward himself, the evidence might never be found.
He nodded: "What is your request?"
Bilige smiled, stood up and said, "I'll take this as the Crown Prince's agreement to the deal. I'll deliver what you want to you as soon as possible. As for my request, I'll tell the Crown Prince later."
Ji Yunshu frowned. This was equivalent to asking Zhao Shen to write an opening check.
If it were before, she would never let Zhao Shen agree no matter what. Who knows when the other party would make an exorbitant request and propose something they couldn't do.
But now, she had a hunch that this person seemed to just want to find a way out for herself.
That's not right. As he said, he is almost dead.
Ji Yunshu vaguely remembered that she had promised to give him a Biling Pill.
But looking at his expression, he seemed not to care at all.
Zhao Shen said directly: "I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request."
He really wanted to get evidence that Prince Yong's Mansion was collaborating with the enemy, but that didn't mean he would try to get something from a tiger.
Bilige had already walked out. He didn't seem surprised to hear his words. He just said softly, "You can leave now."
After the others left, Ji Yunshu and Zhao Shen looked at each other in bewilderment.
Finally, Ji Yunshu couldn't help but ask, "What does he mean by this? Is this deal done or not?"
Zhao Shen's expression was complicated: "He will send the things over. As for his request, it shouldn't be too difficult for us."
Ji Yunshu also thought so. Bilige looked very sure that they would not refuse his request.
"Do you feel that this person..."
Ji Yunshu originally wanted to say that this person had a problem, but halfway through, he felt that this statement was not accurate enough.
However, Bilige's actions do seem to be arranging for future generations.
She paused and couldn't help but ask, "He's not really going to die, is he?"
Zhao Shen said with an unpredictable look, "Who knows if it's true this time."
Ji Yunshu: "...then us?"
Zhao Shen said, "It's time to go."
When the two of them walked out of the General's Mansion, Ji Yunshu was still a little dazed: "Are we really leaving like this?"
Zhao Shen glanced back at the mansion behind him and said with a smile, "Even though he brought us here on his own initiative, he has achieved his goal. He should be leaving Linyuan soon. It's impossible for him to take us with him, so he's just doing us a favor."
Ji Yunshu was surprised: "What did you say? He's leaving Lin Yuan? Where is he going?"
