Zhao Jingyi and Zhao Tingsong were stunned; they had no idea what was going on.
Zhao Jingyi hurriedly said, "Your Highness, I did indeed replace my grandfather's jade pendant; it couldn't possibly be fake."
But if the jade pendant is real, why is there no movement from the bronze door?
"Zhao Guangtao, where did you hide the jade pendant?" Yun Shao immediately realized that the root of the problem lay with Zhao Guangtao, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart.
Zhao Guangtao straightened up, showing none of the pain he had felt earlier from being betrayed by his grandson.
He looked coldly at Yun Shao, "Third Prince, this is the treasure vault of my Zhao family. Only descendants of the Zhao family are allowed to enter. There's no need for you to trouble yourself, Third Prince."
Yun Shao was startled when he saw Zhao Guangtao's sudden change in expression. Then he burst into laughter. "Zhao Guangtao, all land under heaven belongs to the king. In Yunqi, your Zhao family's treasure trove also belongs to my Yun family. I advise you to obediently hand over the jade pendant. Considering that you are Yi'er's grandfather, I will spare your body and leave you with a complete corpse. Your memorial tablet will also be placed in the Zhao family ancestral hall. How about that?"
"Third Prince, don't push your luck! Does Yunqi have no law?" Zhao Jingning said angrily.
Yun Shao looked at Zhao Jingning, his smile widening. "Miss Zhao, if you had been wise enough to agree to marry into my prince's household back then, you wouldn't be in this state today. However, I am kind-hearted and willing to give Miss Zhao a chance. If you sincerely submit to me and become a concubine in my Third Prince's household, I will consider sparing your life. What do you say?"
When Zhao Jingyi heard Yun Shao say that, she looked at Zhao Jingning with a mocking expression.
Since her once high and mighty elder sister had become a concubine in the prince's mansion, she naturally had ways to make her sister's life in the prince's mansion worse than death.
"Third Prince, how can you, a man who is impotent, still think about taking wives and concubines all day long?" Su Ruojin's voice was full of sarcasm.
"What did you say?!" Yun Shao seemed to have been hit where it hurt, the smile on his face vanished instantly, and he glared fiercely at Su Ruojin.
Although Master Tianyi had cured his impotence, this matter was a scar on Yun Shao's body, and he would not allow others to reopen it.
Besides, how could Su Ruojin possibly know about this?
Unless she is the culprit behind his impotence!
Yun Shao then recalled that he had become impotent after returning from Tianning Temple, and that he had been knocked unconscious at the time. All of this must be related to Su Ruojin!
"It was you! It was you back then!" Yun Shao said through gritted teeth.
Su Ruojin smiled faintly, "So what if it's me?"
Seeing Su Ruojin's calm and composed demeanor, Yun Shao's thoughts shifted, and his anger suddenly turned to joy, his face regaining its confident smile. "Princess Chang Le, I admit your medical skills are good, but you are not the only one in this world who understands medicine. My health is perfectly normal now. Am I disappointing you?"
Su Ruojin looked Yun Shao up and down carefully, then sneered, "Third Prince, do you think that taking this potent medicine will cure your illness? Don't blame me for not kindly reminding you, this potent medicine may make you feel better in the short term, but within half a month, you will suffer a backlash and become impotent for life. I believe your father would not allow an impotent person to sit in that position."
In fact, when Su Ruojin saw Yun Shao earlier, she noticed that his lips were purplish-black, his eyes were surrounded by a bluish-black rim, and even his ears were dark gray. These were clearly signs of excessive indulgence.
She knew very well what kind of drug she had given Yun Shao.
If Yun Shao can remain calm and detached during this period, he will return to normal in six months.
But if he forcibly takes potent drugs and indulges in excessive sexual activity, even a god cannot save him; he will be destined to be a eunuch for the rest of his life.
Yun Shao's appearance clearly told Su Ruojin that he had chosen the latter.
"You're talking nonsense!" This time, Zhao Jingyi couldn't stand it anymore. How dare Su Ruojin say that the Third Prince was no good?
If the Third Prince is no longer able to conceive, how will she get pregnant?
Besides, doesn't she know better than Su Ruojin whether the Third Prince is capable or not?
Su Ruojin glanced at Zhao Jingyi and said, "Consort Zhao, I'd like to kindly remind you that the Third Prince cannot conceive while taking the potent medicine. Your hopes are likely to be dashed."
