The Sickly Beauty Substitute Called It Quits - Chapter 228
“I came to you today because of another thing. I asked some news from the person who was arrested. It has something to do with you. Do you want to hear it?” Ji Wuhuang said the main topic.
“Is it Zhu Wan?” Shen Yu patted Shang Junlin’s arm.
Shang Junlin hugged him, got up, and sat down in another place: “Zhu Wang, I sent someone to investigate, and in the end, only Subei could be found at the source, and earlier, there was no more.”
“It’s normal that you can’t find it,” Ji Wuwang walked across from the two and sat down. “He used to be from the Ji family and lived in the Ji clan. Naturally, you can’t find any news about him earlier.”
“Is he also the patriarch’s person?” Shen Yu has not forgotten that the source of everything was the person who tried to use forbidden techniques but was disturbed by his mother.
“Yes, and he liked your mother before,” Ji Wuwang sneered, “These people are also ridiculous, if they like it, they will destroy it. After he escaped from the Ji clan, he did not know how to find out your mother’s whereabouts. He didn’t tell his master, but wanted to threaten her, never thought that after leaving the clan, he was still not her opponent, and he fled in embarrassment after being defeated, and revealed the news of your mother because of love and hatred.”
“Does my mother’s death have anything to do with him?”
“Your mother died when her strength was exhausted. In order to hide your news, she used the forbidden technique of the clan to erase the memory of people who had contact with her.”
“So, there will be no trace of her existence in the capital?” Shen Yu thought.
“You are safe only when no one knows about it. In fact, at the beginning, no one knew that ‘Jieyin’ could be passed on to the child through the mother’s body. Until one year, a confidant of the patriarch accidentally saw you in the capital, and he felt it. The existence of ‘Jieyin’ in your body, and then they sent people to the capital to capture you alive, but unfortunately the people they sent were silenced by unknown forces.”
This assassination was exactly what Shen Yu encountered when he was young. Back then, if it wasn’t for Shang Junlin’s shot, no one knew what would have happened.
Shen Yu looked back at Shang Junlin, his tone was very light: “In those days, it was His Majesty who saved me.”
“That’s it,” Ji Wuwang understood, “I’ve always been curious, who has the ability to quietly extinguish such a large force, and still arouse the vigilance of those people, and dare not make another move. At the beginning, I I thought it was the Marquis of Zhenbei who was secretly protecting you, but later found out that it wasn’t.”
The Marquis of Zhenbei has a certain power, but this power has not reached the level to threaten those people. It would not be surprising if the person who shot was Shang Junlin. Only this man can hold in his hand enough to make people feel A frightening power.
“What else did they plan in secret?” Shen Yu didn’t think that a single failure in pursuit would make these people stop.
“If you can’t be hard, you will be soft. After finding out that you have ‘Jiyin’ on your body, they try to achieve their goals by controlling you. King Yue is a **** they chose. After gaining the trust of King Yue, they deliberately said such a motto and brought it up. The King of Yue is interested in you.”
“King Yue already wanted my position. With such an instruction, how could he let it go in vain, so he began to approach Ayu and Zhenbeihou’s concubine secretly. If he succeeds, Ayu will definitely follow him, maybe They will go to the fief with him and leave the capital, they want to do it, so they have less scruples.” Shang Junlin expressed the guess in his heart.
Shen Yu thought of the long-term illness after he arrived in the fief of the King of Yue in his previous life. He thought it was normal for him to be in poor health. Now it seems that this matter will be marked with a question mark.
During that time, he was confused, and it was difficult to guarantee that the people who escaped from the Ji family did nothing to him.
“They think very well and want you to do things for them…” Ji Wuwang recalled the scene in the dungeon, and his face became even colder.
The man was tied to the rack, and there was not a good piece of his body. Blood was dripping from the corner of his eyes. He laughed wildly, and his tone was mixed with strong malice:
“Since she ruined our plan, wouldn’t it be appropriate to let her child pay? It’s a pity, the king of Yue, who is so favorable to him, can screw things up, no wonder the current emperor who can’t win Dahuan’s fight. .”
“What are these people trying to do? What is the purpose of the patriarch who was exposed by my mother?”
The gloomy words brought back Ji Wuwang’s thoughts, and the corners of his mouth evoked a cold arc: “They, want to live forever, all the saintesses of the Ji family can maintain their faces, these people think that they have received ‘precepts’ ‘ effect, of course, the fact is also true, at the same time, ‘Jiyin’ will burn the saint’s life at the cost, these people are imaginative, thinking that eating the blood of the body of the ‘Jiyin’ can be free from the ‘Jiyin’ Negative effect of the face, to achieve the effect of permanent appearance.”
Shen Yu only felt a chill, aware of his strangeness, Shang Junlin hugged him tightly, the fear and uncontrollable anger in his heart, the person he was reluctant to hurt at the tip of his heart was actually coveted with flesh and blood! !
“Can it really be achieved?” Shen Yu asked.
Ji Wuwang shook his head: “No, but those people are already crazy, and I believe it. Your mother discovered that the death of the previous saint was wrong, and secretly investigated this matter.”
“You said before that my mother broke the patriarch’s use of forbidden techniques…”
“That’s right. The Ji family made their fortune from medicine. In the Ji family’s collection of books, there are many strange recipes that have not been verified. These recipes are strange in both the preparation method and the effect. Forbidden arts, aren’t you looking for the ‘Scarlet Dream’? This herb was first released from the Ji family, but the current ‘Scarlet Dream’ is very different from the original one.”
“I want to meet the person you brought back.”
“There’s nothing to see, if you really want to see it, wait until you’ve dealt with the ‘Jie Yin’ in your body before going.” Ji Wuwang worried that those people who stayed behind would cause harm to Shen Yu.
These people have spent a lot of time on “Prevention” for ten years, and they don’t have any cards in their hands that they don’t know. They were disgraced because of Shen Yu’s mother, and now they are being tried because of Shen Yu. All hatred is concentrated on Shen Yu. , Ji Wuwang will not let Shen Yu take risks at this time.
It was rare for Shang Junlin to stand on the same front as Ji Wuwang: “Patriarch Ji is right. If Ayu wants to see those people, he will go when he is well.”
Shen Yu was not in a hurry to meet someone, so he agreed.
He thought that some of the mysteries of the previous life might be solved soon.
Shen Yu’s days at Ji’s house were the same as before, no one with eyesight came to disturb them, and Shang Junlin was always by his side, quite a feeling that they were the husbands of ordinary people.
Shang Junlin doesn’t have to go to court in the morning. When Shen Yu wakes up every day, he can see people beside the bed. After washing up, the two have breakfast together, then go out for a walk and buy some small things. If Shen Yu is interested in something , Shang Junlin will take him to see it together.
The Ji family’s atmosphere is slightly more open than Dahuan’s. If the men and women here meet the person they like, they will go up to invite them directly. If they are more daring, they will directly invite the guests to their home. If it is suitable, they can quickly become a couple. , if it is not suitable, they will be peacefully separated and pursued again.
Shen Yu and Shang Junlin have always been in and out together, with intimate behaviors, and people who occasionally move will not come forward unintentionally. On this day, Shang Junlin has something to do temporarily, and Shen Yu wanders out of the door alone.
He has an outstanding appearance and an extraordinary bearing, and as soon as he appears on the street, he attracts most of the attention.
Shen Yu walked to a stall selling gadgets, and there were various small objects carved from wood and stone on the stall, each of which was very agile and lifelike.
When I came with Shang Junlin before, Shen Yu had never seen the stall owner and walked over curiously: “Did you carve these yourself?”
“Yes, if the guests have anything else they want, they can also carve them.”
Shen Yu took a look around and picked up one that was carved into a black wolf and one that was carved into a white cat: “How do you sell these two?”
Without waiting for the stall owner to answer, several young men and women squeezed in, and the woman in the lead said, “I will pay for what this gentleman wants.”
“It doesn’t have to be…”
The woman waved her hand boldly: “You look good, I am willing to send you, no need to say more.”
Shen Yu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He didn’t expect that one day he would be able to enjoy such treatment because of his face. He couldn’t feel malice or other bad emotions from the woman. As the woman said, she wanted to send him because he was good-looking.
“Then one.” Shen Yu thought for a while and put the black wolf down.
The woman paid the money and walked away with someone.
Shen Yu was afraid that a similar situation would happen again, so he would just look around and buy nothing. On the way, many people tried to invite him, but they were all rejected.
When Shang Junlin was there, this situation never happened. Shen Yu felt that it was better for him to go back first, and then come out with him when Shang Junlin had time.
Shang Junlin was dealing with letters from outside the Ji clan. Every once in a while, Fang Jun would pass on the movements of the palace and the court, as well as some documents that had to be dealt with by him, into the clan.
Through these, he can understand the trends outside, for example, some people can’t sit still anymore, and they start to do all kinds of small tricks to test.
After processing all the letters, Shang Junlin put down the pen, rubbed his brows, and looked around the room subconsciously, but did not see any familiar figures.
It suddenly occurred to me that Shen Yu went out alone today.
Calling out Yinlongwei, Shang Jun asked, “What are you doing?”
Yin Longwei told Shen Yu what happened along the way. They followed Shen Yu, mainly to protect Shen Yu’s safety. After all, someone in Ji’s family tried to attack Shen Yu in vain. Although Ji Wuwang dealt with him, no one could guarantee that Will there be any accident.
Yin Longwei followed behind and reported what happened to Shang Junlin. He was tacitly acquiescent. He knew Shang Junlin’s unease, and he would not be arrogant enough to think that the current Ji clan was completely safe, with Yinlongwei following him. , can prevent many bad things from happening.
Shen Yu came back earlier than expected. As soon as he put his hand on the door, the door was opened from the inside, and then a strong force pulled him in.
Suddenly, he was hugged.
Feeling the familiar breath, the gloomy and stiff body relaxed: “What is your majesty doing?”
“Ayu is very popular.” Shang Junlin gently rubbed the neck of the person in his arms with the tip of his nose.
Shen Yu paused for a while, and said inexplicably: “Does your Majesty know that now you are especially like a little wife who is waiting for her husband’s return?”
