Chapter 425 The Tent Was Destroyed
"It's one thing for this dog emperor to be so shameless himself, but his two sons are just as despicable and shameless! And they're the kind of sons who are constantly surpassing their predecessors!"
Ji Yunshu gritted her teeth and cursed for a long time. She really didn't expect that Chu Jingrui would do such a thing.
She had previously taken all of Chu Jingrui's supplies, but Chu Jingrui was able to shamelessly steal other people's tents for his own use. This level of shamelessness greatly refreshed her understanding of the world.
Xie Moyao looked at Ji Yunshu with a faint smile. This was the first time he had ever seen Ji Yunshu so agitated.
Previously, Ji Yunshu was quite composed and handled things calmly. This time, however, Ji Yunshu was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and she immediately bristled.
He also agreed with Ji Yunshu's words. If we're talking about being despicable, he really hadn't seen anyone more despicable than the Second Prince. Even Chu Jinsheng was ashamed of himself.
"I never expected him to do this. If he had only taken one, that would have been one thing, but he took them all, not even leaving anyone a single tent. He has absolutely no regard for other people's lives."
This is what angered Xie Moyao the most. If they snatched one tent, the others could squeeze in and get through, but Chu Jingrui's men managed to snatch all the tents, leaving all the villagers huddled around the fire for warmth.
It takes a really hard heart to watch this. Even Chu Jinsheng wasn't necessarily this ruthless back then.
Ji Yunshu gritted her teeth, secretly clenching her fist: "I'm so angry! That damned Chu Jingrui, how could he go so far? Didn't he consider that these villagers would freeze to death after he stole the tents?!"
Or perhaps, in the eyes of these royals, the lives of these villagers are nothing more than ants, utterly insignificant.
Xie Moyao sneered: "Why would he care about the lives of these villagers? In Chu Jingrui's eyes, he probably doesn't even consider these villagers as human beings."
He had dealt with Chu Jingrui, Chu Jinsheng, and the emperor. There was no doubt that people in the royal family were inherently cold-blooded and valued their own lives more than anyone else.
Although Xie Moyao could understand Chu Jingrui's actions, he simply could not accept them.
Ji Yunshu coldly watched outside the tent and saw Zhang Lizheng, Zhao Laobo, and the others huddled together, huddled together, warming themselves by the small campfire. The cold wind howled past them, blowing their thin clothes. Ji Yunshu could imagine that the bodies under their clothes were probably already numb from the wind.
"No, this can't go on. I have to think of something. This Chu Jingrui is so shameless; I can't let them sleep in my tent like this!"
Xie Moyao looked at her with some worry in his eyes: "What are you going to do? This afternoon, Chu Jingrui came to test me. He must have seen those strange things in Mo Huan and the others' packages, so he came to me to find a breakthrough. If you do anything unusual now, he will definitely become suspicious."
Given his wife's personality, he was genuinely afraid that she would simply and recklessly store the tents in her spatial storage. Although it would be done without anyone noticing, it would still be too eerie.
In front of so many people, they suddenly took away all the tents, leaving only the tents belonging to their royal palace. No one would believe there wasn't something fishy going on.
Ji Yunshu winked playfully, her tone slightly lighthearted: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. There are so many people here, and since I've taken these tents out, I didn't intend to take them back. But I took these tents out for the villagers to rest in. Since Chu Jingrui wants to take them, then let him have them."
But I won't just stand by and watch him sleep so comfortably; he'll have to pay the price for what he did tonight.
Xie Moyao looked at her with a half-smile. His intuition told him that whenever his wife spoke and made that expression, she was trying to mess with him.
He was also eager to know what Ji Yunshu was planning to do.
"What exactly do you want to do? Chu Jingrui is no pushover either. His men are all very skilled in martial arts and combat, far surpassing the First Prince's men. Especially that Sixth Prince, whose mind is much quicker than the Fifth and Third Princes."
The eldest prince was a bit dim-witted, and so were the fifth and third princes. But this Chu Jingrui was more cunning, scheming, ruthless, and vicious than the eldest prince. His six subordinates were exactly like their master.
If Xiao Wu still had a shred of conscience, then Liu Zi was nothing more than a dog and a knife in Chu Jingrui's hands; he would attack wherever Chu Jingrui pointed.
"Don't worry, I won't disturb them. Since they want to sleep in tents, let them sleep. Hopefully, they'll still be alive to wake up tomorrow morning."
As Ji Yunshu spoke, her eyes narrowed, and her thoughts entered the space.
She took out several silenced pistols from the armory in the space. Considering that she was going to attack a tent this time, she specially removed the bullets from the silenced pistols, replaced the muzzle with something that looked like a sword tip. The sword tip was cross-shaped, extremely sharp, and the size of a palm.
Xie Moyao watched her movements with a puzzled look. He was confused as she kept disassembling and assembling equipment. But when Ji Yunshu attached the last sword-tip-shaped object to the head of the pistol, his eyes lit up and he immediately knew what Ji Yunshu was up to.
He stared incredulously at the pistol in Ji Yunshu's hand, never expecting that this thing could be modified like this.
"You, you're thinking of..."
Ji Yunshu grinned and brandished the pistol in her hand: "My husband guessed right, I do want to destroy all those tents. These tents are for the villagers to live in, and since the villagers can't live in them, why should I give them away to the Second Prince and his dogs?"
"I used this to destroy all those tents. Firstly, it prevented me from getting close to those people, and secondly, even if the Second Prince was angry, he wouldn't find any clues."
After all, she has an alibi. To others, she's probably still at the bottom of the cliff looking for Sherlin and Xiaolan tonight.
Xie Moyao secretly gave Ji Yunshu a thumbs up. Destroying the tent was indeed a good idea, but it was a bit of a pity...
"Your tent was of very good quality. Even in this cold weather, it wasn't cold inside; in fact, it was quite warm. It was a good thing. It's a real shame to ruin it like this."
"It's alright, I have all kinds of tents in my space, as many as you want. It's a bit of a shame to destroy them, but it's better than letting someone else have them."
As Ji Yunshu spoke, she had already raised her gun and arrived at the tent entrance. She gently unzipped the tent, put her head close to the zipper, and stared at the movements outside.
Seeing this, Xie Moyao didn't say anything more. He moved closer to her, leaned against her, and looked at the outside commotion through the gap.
Outside, apart from some villagers and officials who were freezing, most people had fallen asleep, especially the Second Prince and his men, who were all sound asleep in their tents.
Even though Ji Yunshu and Xie Moyao were quite a distance apart, they could hear the snoring coming from inside the tent.
