Chapter 229 Human Skin Mask



Failure truly makes one learn. Look at this princess; ever since we tried to poison her a few times and realized we couldn't, she's actually started using her brain.

It's a pity that, as a doctor, she was not only extremely knowledgeable about poisons, but also equally familiar with flowers and plants.

This flower emits a fragrance that is no different from a sleeping potion; if you smell it for too long, you will faint.

If you add anything else, it becomes highly poisonous and can kill a person instantly.

The princess saw Yunzhi looking at the flowers beside her and felt a little worried and guilty, afraid that Yunzhi might have noticed something.

He was relieved when he saw that Yunzhi quickly looked away without saying anything.

I thought to myself: It's good that she didn't find out. Otherwise, everything would have been for nothing.

This potted plant was provided by a master, who assured her that Yunzhi would never discover its secret.

When Yunzhi was looking at the flowers, her heart was in her throat, afraid that Yunzhi would discover something was wrong. Fortunately, she didn't.

Yunzhi saw through the princess's guilty conscience but did not expose her. Instead, she smiled and asked, "I wonder what brings the princess to me at this time?"

"I wouldn't dare to offer advice. You're about to marry the Regent and become his wife. I'll have to call you 'Imperial Aunt' then. I've called you here today to ease the tension between us. I misunderstood something before and did some bad things to you. I apologize to you and hope you can forgive me."

"Really?" Yunzhi was still smiling, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. If you looked closely, you could see that her smile was somewhat cold.

"Of course it's true." The princess said it was true, but she didn't dare to look Yunzhi in the eye, afraid that she would see through something.

However, Yunzhi didn't press the matter, acting as if she already believed her. But she knew very well that a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken was bound to have good intentions.

The flowers next to it say it all, don't they?

As time ticked by, the princess grew increasingly anxious. The man had told her that she would be drugged in just fifteen minutes. Why was Yunzhi completely unharmed?

Could it be that the flower has no effect on her?

She herself had been smelling it for a long time, and the reason she didn't faint was because she had taken the antidote beforehand. But Yunzhi was so shrewd; she couldn't possibly have known in advance that she would be poisoned, so she took the antidote beforehand, could she?

But when she thought about how Yunzhi was a doctor, she felt that perhaps it was possible.

Just as she was wondering what to do, Yunzhi suddenly reached out and held her head, saying, "Oh dear, what's wrong with me? I feel a little dizzy."

Upon hearing this, the eldest princess was instantly overjoyed. However, she showed no sign of it on her face. She rose and went to Yunzhi's side, feigning concern, and asked, "How are you? Are you alright?"

"I feel so dizzy. Oh dear, I can't stay awake any longer, I need to sleep for a while. Could you please tell my maid to come and get me?"

After saying that, Yunzhi collapsed onto the table.

When the eldest princess saw Yunzhi fall, her joy was palpable. She clapped her hands with a smile and said, "It's done."

Then she added, "So what if she's a doctor? She still got caught by me."

"Guards, take her away."

Yunzhi was quickly led to a secret underground room in the teahouse. Inside, a woman was already waiting. Upon seeing Yunzhi enter, she immediately observed her face for a while.

Then, she immediately began making a human skin mask right next to her. Soon, a human skin mask that looked exactly like Yunzhi's face was completed.
