Chapter 138: Three o'clock in the morning wake-up call! I am really a serious person

He Zhaojun's arm was dislocated, and she was now grimacing in unbearable pain. She glanced at her arm, and Ling Buyi raised his hand and gently reattached her shoulder.

"Shao Shang's forgery of the Tiger Tally has far-reaching consequences. Not to mention whether I, his helper, can escape, I'm afraid the entire Eastern Palace, the Quling Marquisate, and even your Ling Residence won't be in any better shape. I can't bear to see people I know put in danger because of this."

"Then you can just tell Shao Shang not to worry about it. She will definitely listen."

He Zhaojun waved her hand: "You told her not to worry about it. If she had listened, would she still be in this situation today?"

Ling Buyi was silent. "So, you helped her make it in front of Shao Shang, and secretly figured out a way to make a tiger talisman that was indistinguishable from the real thing, and let me keep the Huo family tiger talisman. Yue Hou thought his plan had succeeded, and Ziduan was also kept in the dark by you..."

He Zhaojun tutted her words. "You said it so harshly. I didn't want to make things difficult for him. After all, he knows you're doing this. As a brother, I certainly don't want to stop you. But as a prince, I can't get over it."

"So, after this incident, Shao Shang must have understood how dangerous it is to get involved in the affairs of the Eastern Palace. He will definitely not take risks rashly in the future. This can be considered a lesson learned."

"As for the Third Prince and the Marquis of Yue, just treat it as Shao Shang coming up with a solution that happened to help the Crown Prince out of his predicament. Tell the Crown Prince about this, and he'll undoubtedly trust you even more, making it easier for you to act in the future."

He Zhaojun had arranged everything, putting in all her effort, yet she was nowhere to be seen. Ling Buyi, thinking of this, bowed to her and said, "Thank you, young lady, for your generosity. The Huo family tiger talisman is…"

To him, this was the only thing the Huo family left him.

He pursed his lips and did not continue speaking. He was afraid that He Zhaojun would see through him, and he also secretly hoped that there would be someone who would understand the pain in his heart that he had no one to confide.

He Zhaojun held his hand lightly, "I understand, I understand everything. It's getting late, you should go back quickly. Do you still need to go to the battle tomorrow?"

Ling Buyi nodded and, having already taken a few steps, turned around and approached He Zhaojun. "Ziduan came looking for me and said a lot of strange things. Is this related to you?"

Ling Buyi took a closer look and found that He Zhaojun's lip was broken. He pointed and said, "Did I hurt you during the fight just now?"

He Zhaojun felt the wound on her lip and said, "No, no, it was a dog bite!"

At this point, she slapped her head and said she had forgotten something. She had promised Wen Ziduan that they would meet tonight to talk things over, but she hadn't expected the palace to be locked and she couldn't leave.

She quickly grabbed Ling Buyi and said, "General Ling, I have an unwelcome request. You can come and go freely in the palace as if you were alone. If you bring someone with you, can you still get out safely?"

Ling Buyi nodded. He originally wanted to carry He Zhaojun on his back, but he thought of Shaoshang and Wen Ziduan. He just held He Zhaojun under his armpit, like a gun, and "held" her all the way out of the palace.

"We've arrived at the Third Prince's residence. I'll take you there." Ling Buyi bowed, turned around, spurred his horse, and disappeared into the night.

He Zhaojun stared at the large characters "Third Prince's Mansion" for a long time. Just as she was about to knock on the door, the small door opened from the inside and Gu Guan poked his head out: "Young Master, you're here."

He Zhaojun nodded and said, "Don't think too much... I'm here to wake up the Third Prince in the morning."

Looking at the sky, it’s not yet midnight yet. Are you asking His Majesty the Third Prince to get up early?

He coughed lightly and said, "Young lady, the brothers were all here when you met last time. You don't have to be embarrassed."

Anyway, everyone knows what they should know.
