258. Grandfather
"You are the Ninth Princess of Western Liao." Ji Fengyuan looked at You Wu and chuckled, "Jiu Mei, I wish us a happy cooperation."
"Don't recognize relatives randomly. I'm the same as Ah Cheng, and I don't have a father." You Wu looked cold and didn't buy Ji Fengyuan's deliberate gesture.
Ji Fengyuan smiled and didn't care. After so many things before, he was immersed in the surging Western Liao royal family for more than half a year. He was no longer the ambitious, innocent and impulsive swordsman at the time.
It is true that he regards Rong Yuancheng as a friend. Ji Fengyuan does appreciate Rong Yuancheng. But his decision to cooperate with Rong Yuancheng has nothing to do with emotions, and it is the result of careful consideration.
Ji Fengyuan knew very well that no matter whether Ji Xu showed his importance to him now, he would never have the chance to stand up in this Western Liao royal family, which was full of filth and turbulent.
And he had already wade into this muddy water and could never be out of it.
The final outcome is nothing more than two types. Either you succeed in getting that only position, or you die in a bad mood.
The former has little hope, while the latter is Ji Fengyuan is definitely not willing to accept it.
Rong Yuancheng's arrival provided Ji Fengyuan with a third possibility. The final "success" may not be as expected, but it is a way out. If the Western Liao Kingdom was destroyed by the Rong clan, Ji Fengyuan would not be too surprised or a pity. The camp he chose now could give him a future and future after the Western Liao Kingdom was destroyed. The worst result is that even if the Rong clan is defeated, as long as he has not died, he will not abandon him.
Of course, this requires him to pay the price, take risks, save his life and wait for that day to come.
However, as a descendant of the royal family, risks and interests have always coexisted. At least, he still has room for choice.
Ji Yuexuan stared blankly at Mu Zhenxuan, whose neck was wiped by Rong Yuancheng, and the splattered blood turned into a charming flower on the ground...
Ji Yuexuan's gaze slowly retracted and fixed on her broken tendon. Her body trembled and suddenly she let out a strange smile. She lowered her head, as if she was muttering to herself, "Just you...just you...just you...just you? Ji Fengyuan...Ji Yuewu...you want to kill your father? Haha...hahaha...hilarious...that's ridiculous...you will definitely die miserably, and there is no place to bury!"
Ji Yuexuan said, slowly raised her head, her face distorted, her eyes swept across Ji Fengyuan and You Wu's face. When she saw Rong Yuancheng's clear and elegant face, she suddenly became gentle again, and she said in a vague manner, "You will be fine... but you will soon become a prisoner in the hands of your father again... and become a tool used by the father to threaten and control Rong Lan... Haha... This is more uncomfortable than killing you, right?"
Ji Fengyuan snorted coldly, "Ji Yuexuan, you are looking for death!"
Rong Yuancheng looked at Ji Yuexuan calmly, "Actually, there is no deep hatred between us. If you want to survive, take out something valuable enough to make a deal with us."
Ji Fengyuan frowned, wondering why Rong Yuancheng said that. What other valuable things can Ji Yuexuan have?
Ji Yuexuan's face suddenly changed, and she suddenly lowered her head, without saying a word, as if she was thinking about something.
"My patience is limited. If I don't explain it before dark, I'll send you on the way." Rong Yuancheng said coldly.
Ji Yuexuan looked up again and stared at Rong Yuancheng, "What do you want to know?"
Rong Yuancheng asked back, "What do you know?"
Ji Yuexuan knew that Rong Yuancheng was forcing her to tell the secrets she knew, and it must be information that would be helpful to what Rong Yuancheng wanted to do next, so that she could hope to find a chance to survive.
And Ji Yuexuan does know something...
After his expression changed again and again, Ji Yuexuan suddenly smiled evilly, "Rong Yuancheng, if what I said next can help you, you have to agree to me first!"
Rong Yuancheng shook his head slightly, "I will not agree to unknown conditions. If you have something to say, otherwise, I will shut up and die."
Ji Fengyuan laughed and looked at Ji Yuexuan in a cold look. This woman has always been vicious and conceited. Although she restrained her a little after that incident, she was only on the surface. How could her personality change so easily?
Ji Fengyuan felt that Ji Yuexuan was interested in Rong Yuancheng, and he only found it ridiculous. Rong Yuancheng naturally could not fall in love with a vicious and shameless woman like Ji Yuexuan, who was harmful to countless people, so there was no need to say much. But Ji Yuexuan fell in love with the enemy, which was very dangerous for her herself and was destined to lose from the beginning.
That time, Ji Yuexuan took advantage of the right time, place and people, and finally Rong Yuancheng and Rong Yuanfeng ran away from under her nose. She still didn't realize how terrifying Rong Yuancheng's strength was. It was not about martial arts, but about the mind.
Ji Yuexuan's vigilance is too poor. Of course, it is useless for her to be more vigilant this time. The combination of Rong Yuancheng and You Wu may be difficult to deal with Ji Xu, but it is not easy to win Ji Yuexuan when she is prepared, has a meticulous plan, and is acting in secret. It can only be said that it is not too difficult.
Ji Yuexuan's face looked extremely ugly, "Without the news I provided, you will definitely die if you act rashly! Rong Yuancheng, if I confess, you will marry me later! As long as you agree, I can help you get rid of my father wholeheartedly. Isn't this your long-cherished wish between you and your mother? Since you are willing to do anything for your mother, you can even ignore life and death. It's not that difficult to marry me, right? I said, I like you, as long as you nod, I will never betray you!"
The tea that Ji Fengyuan had in his mouth sprayed out, and he really wanted to pry Ji Yuexuan's head open to see if there was any shit inside? He clearly knew how much Rong Yuancheng disliked her, but he wanted to mention a condition that Rong Yuancheng could not agree to.
But after thinking about it, Ji Fengyuan realized that Ji Yuexuan was willing to do so. She would either die or get Rong Yuancheng alive and not give herself a third way. Otherwise, even if Rong Yuancheng lets her go, she would lose everything she has now, including her healthy body and proud strength. For someone who is so ambitious, it might be better to die.
Getting Rong Yuancheng can not only satisfy Ji Yuexuan's desire to conquer, but also allow her to have a bright and infinite future.
Of course, if you want to realize everything, the premise is that Rong Yuancheng will not lie. As long as you make a promise, you will definitely fulfill it. Ji Yuexuan bet on this, and Ji Fengyuan also believes in this.
Ji Yuexuan looked at Rong Yuancheng, and there was unconcealed expectation in her eyes. What she was thinking about now was not about living, and she even forgot about the things she had pursued. As long as this man nodded, she could abandon everything! She had never been so impulsive in this life! But sometimes, emotional things are just a moment of thought, and everything will change.
Rong Yuancheng's face was calm, "Indeed, I am willing to do anything for my mother. But you seem to have made a mistake in something very important. Killing Ji Xu and avenging the family is far less important than living a safe and happy life in my mother's heart."
Ji Fengyuan's face was stunned, then smiled bitterly, and his deep envy of Rong Yuancheng rose in his heart. It was a blessing in life to have such a sensible and loving mother!
Just now, Ji Fengyuan said that his mother had told Ji Xu that dog man to die, but he was actually talking nonsense. The truth is that Ji Fengyuan's mother waited day after day for the man who had promised to pick her up, and later she even became unconscious and almost killed Ji Fengyuan who was still in her belly. When Ji Fengyuan was less than one year old, his mother Yao Yuwei committed suicide because she could not bear the pain of lovesickness and the pain of lies.
Ji Fengyuan did not have a mother who dared to love and hate. His mother was just a foolish and weak woman, which was completely incomparable to Rong Lan.
Ji Fengyuan saw the portrait of his mother. Later, when he saw Rong Lan, he understood why Ji Xu fell in love with Yao Yuwei, a folk girl. Because Yao Yuwei's eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Rong Lan, they were just a substitute in Ji Xu's eyes. After playing with it, they were abandoned.
Ji Yuexuan's face froze, and then Rong Yuancheng continued, "Ji Xu's life will not make my mother suffer because his life or death will never be more important than the life of our brothers and sisters, and it is never worthy of my mother's sacrifice, because he is not worthy. I can't kill Ji Xu. When I get home, my mother will comfort me and say thank you for your hard work, don't care about those miscellaneous things, they will sooner or later be struck by lightning. But if I marry you, my mother will not recognize me, a broken-minded son. Ji Yuexuan, what do you think I should choose?"
Ji Yuexuan's expression was distorted again, "You! Why can't I do it? Ji Yuewu and I are both Ji Xu's daughters! Why can she do it? I can't?"
You Wu frowned, what can she do? When she left to catch Mu Zhenxuan, what did Rong Yuancheng say to Ji Yuexuan? Did Ji Yuexuan misunderstand that she and Rong Yuancheng were a pair?
Of course, You Wu was too lazy to defend her because Ji Yuexuan was not questioning her. Seeing Ji Yuexuan's hysterical appearance now, You Wu only found it ridiculous. Such a person never reflects on what he did wrong, but shamelessly demands that Rong Yuancheng be fair to her? What is fairness? Have the people she killed in order to get to power have been fair?
"If you can't even understand why she can, and you can't, I don't have anything to explain to you, because I've explained it, and people like you can't understand it." Rong Yuancheng looked indifferent, "If you know, say what you want, and if you don't want to say it, take a secret to the underworld to wait for your father to reunite with your father. I don't care, and I won't ask for a daughter who is the same as Ji Xu."
Ji Yuexuan was anxious and angry, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, her eyes protruding, "Rong Yuancheng! You will regret it!"
Rong Yuancheng shook his head, "This is my business, it has nothing to do with you."
You Wu stood up, walked towards Ji Yuexuan, and took out a pair of tweezers from her sleeve. She usually carried it with her to catch poisonous insects.
You Wu grabbed Ji Yuexuan's hand, clamped her thumb's nails with tweezers, and pulled them down, "Say, otherwise I will execute you Lingchi!"
Ji Yuexuan screamed, sweating on her forehead, and a trace of blood on her face disappeared.
You Wu suddenly withdrew her tweezers impatiently and snorted, "It's really disgusting to look at your face. I don't want to waste my time anymore. Acheng, you and Ji Fengyuan go somewhere else to drink. I peeled off her skin and made her a human skin mask, and then she can die."
Ji Yuexuan looked at Ji Fengyuan and Rong Yuancheng with horror as he stood up and wanted to leave, and shouted their names randomly, "Save me... Save me!"
Suddenly, Rong Yuancheng stopped and turned to look over. Ji Yuexuan's eyes were bright, but Rong Yuancheng said, "Senior sister, have the sauce elbows from Defulou for dinner? I'll buy it for you."
You Wu nodded, "I like it."
The light in Ji Yuexuan's eyes disappeared suddenly, and her face was ashamed.
Rong Yuancheng lifted Mu Zhenxuan's body on the ground and secretly left the Ninth Princess's Mansion.
Ji Fengyuan left the main gate openly and returned to his Sixth Prince's Mansion.
Ji Yuexuan watched You Wu take out a bottle of medicine and want to pour it into her. She trembled all over, knowing that once she was filled with medicine and fell into a coma, she would not even lose her face when she woke up.
At this moment, Ji Yuexuan finally realized the fear of Han Zhi's bone marrow, and finally forgot about Rong Yuancheng, leaving only the idea of survival.
"I said...I said! You let me go!" Ji Yuexuan looked frightened. Only by living can she have hope, she doesn't want to die!
You Wu snorted coldly, "One last chance, say!"
"You agree first, I'll say it, just let me have a way out!" Ji Yuexuan looked at You Wu and said, "And, I'm not allowed to expose my face!"
"Okay." You Wu nodded, "The premise is that what you said is really valuable."
"Lu...Lu Zhe, Rong Yuanqiu's cousin, he...he was locked in Yuelan Palace!" Ji Yuexuan said, "I have received the grace of my father...I can go to Yuelan Palace, but I have to get a token..."
Ji Yuexuan said, looking at her chest.
You Wu found a token of gold-inlaid jade from Ji Yuexuan. The jade inside was in the shape of a rose flower. This is Rong Lan's favorite flower. You Wu also knows where Yuelan Palace is.
"If you pretend to be me... but don't know how to show the token, you will be seen through immediately!" Ji Yuexuan said coldly.
You Wu nodded slightly and put away the token, "What else?"
"It's gone... don't you want to save Lu Zhe? He has helped Rong Yuanqiu..." Ji Yuexuan shook her head, "I don't know anything else."
"The rescue of Lu Zhe is not the purpose of our trip." You Wu shook his head, "At least, I don't care about his life or death. The news you said is not enough to let me let you go."
Ji Yuexuan's face froze, "Ji Yuewu, don't be too greedy!"
You Wu took out the medicine bottle again, "It's better to be more frustrated? It seems that you have a secret that you haven't told. I've said it, one last chance."
Just as You Wu opened Ji Yuexuan's chin, she suddenly struggled, tilted to the side, got rid of You Wu's control, and said gritting her teeth, "There is one more thing!"
"Ji Yuexuan, if you use tricks again, what will happen? Do you need me to tell you?" You Wu's eyes were cold.
"Father, he... he is actually not the bloodline of the Ji royal family!" Ji Yuexuan said sternly, "You and me, and Ji Fengyuan, one of them is considered the other, they are all wild species!"
You Wu's eyes shrank slightly, "Speak clearly! What does it mean that he is not the bloodline of the Ji royal family?"
"I don't know what's going on... In short, the father's biological father is not the emperor's grandfather!" Ji Yuexuan frowned, "As for our biological grandfather, I have met him once! That night, I happened to meet him out of the palace. I must have gone to find his father. I don't know what he was talking about! I don't know who that person was, and I wanted to avoid it, but he took the initiative to talk to me, and his eyes looked at me were very strange! He took the initiative to tell me that he was my real grandfather and gave me a bottle of poison as a meeting gift! He also said that he was going to go out for a long trip and would prepare a big gift for us when he came back after he was busy! If I want to learn poison, he can teach me then!"
"That was the incident before the New Year. After that, when I heard about the chaos in the Dongming royal family, I guessed it was related to the old man. I didn't dare to ask my father about this. I was just skeptical, but later, I saw a bottle like the poison given to me by the old man, more than one, many!" Ji Yuexuan said.
"Where is the poison he gave you?" You Wu asked.
Ji Yuexuan was silent for a moment before gritting her teeth and saying, "I bribed the people who served the prince and the prince. Every time I took a little, I put them in the soup he had to drink every day."
You Wu stared at me and thought. The "real grandfather" mentioned by Ji Yuexuan, he was obviously a ghost Taoist. According to Ji Yuexuan's words, the biggest question of the Rong family seemed to be answered. The ghost Taoist's son was Ji Xu, the emperor of the Western Liao Dynasty. He harmed Su Mo for Ji Xu.
Moreover, Wei He captured Mu Zhenxuan and Lu Zhe and handed them over to Ji Xu, indicating that the envoy behind him and Qing Mei was Ji Xu.
There is no queen mother in the Western Liao Kingdom now. Because Ji Xu's mother had long been dead, she could not find her to confirm whether she had an affair with the ghost Taoist.
Now, all the clues point to Ji Xu, who is the culprit of everything.
But You Wu always felt something was wrong and was skeptical about it. She planned to discuss it with Rong Yuancheng when she saw him.
But You Wu believed that Ji Yuexuan did not lie in this matter. As for Ji Yuexuan's use of the poison given by her "grandfather" to assassinate her brother, You Wu was too lazy to comment.
Although they are half-brothers, they are also brothers and sisters in blood. For Ji Yuexuan, this is nothing. She can kill anyone for the sake of gaining power and for the sake of profit. And You Wu has long stopped treating herself as a member of the Ji royal family. The prince Ji Fengming loves to death, and it has nothing to do with her.
"I know, I told you all... you promised to let me go. If you break your promise, Rong Yuancheng will not like you..." Ji Yuexuan said hatefully.
"Rong Yuancheng likes me, why don't I know?" You Wu asked subconsciously.
You Wu asked a question sincerely, but in Ji Yuexuan's ears, she was showing off nakedly, which made her hate her almost vomit blood. She could only bear it now and save her life first.
"Don't talk about those things that are not available. I still need to verify whether what you said is true or false. And I will pretend to be you next, of course it is impossible to let you go out for bad things. So, even if you can live and want to be free, at least wait until Ji Xu dies." After Yu Wu finished speaking, he opened Ji Yuexuan's mouth and poured the liquid in the bottle into it.
Ji Yuexuan was filled with anger and hatred, but she could only stare at You Wu tightly. After a moment, she fainted and lost consciousness.
You Wu stood up, took out the token of gold-inlaid jade, looked at the exquisite rose flowers on it, thinking, "Is it really Ji Xu? It seems to be a bit too smooth..."
At this moment, an old voice came from outside the door, "The Emperor ordered His Highness Ninth Princess to enter the palace at the hour of Hai tonight, bring Mu Zhenxuan, and have something to ask him."
