At this moment, another woman, with a similar build to Yunzhi and wearing the exact same clothes, entered.
After she entered, she immediately put on the human skin mask. Instantly, another Yunzhi appeared.
The eldest princess looked at the fake Yunzhi and was very satisfied. She said, "Alright, it's exactly the same. I believe that even if Lu Cang of Dongli saw it, he wouldn't be able to tell the difference."
However, what the eldest princess didn't know was that Yunzhi was faking her fainting. Therefore, she heard everything they did and said clearly.
At this moment, she also realized what the princess and the others wanted to do.
Originally, she could have taken this opportunity to test Dongli Lu Cang and see if he could recognize her. However, Yunzhi thought about it and decided against it.
Relationships are most vulnerable to suspicion; she should try to win back her feelings.
"Let's go!" The more the princess looked at the fake, the more satisfied she became. Then, she glanced at Yunzhi, who was still lying on the ground, and left with her men.
Soon, the secret room was locked. Yunzhi opened her eyes and looked around the room.
She had suspected something was amiss with this teahouse, and sure enough, it was.
Once she was certain that there was no one else in the secret room besides herself, Yunzhi didn't want to stay there for even a second longer.
She gently knocked on the door of the secret room, and soon a guard opened it and called out, "Miss!"
Have they all left?
"Reporting to Miss, the Princess has already left the teahouse and headed towards the palace. As for the other person who looks like you, he has already boarded a carriage and returned to his villa."
"Okay, I understand. Let's not go back to the villa for now, let's go for a stroll around the palace first."
"Okay!" The guard nodded and left the secret room with Yunzhi, heading towards the palace.
It must be said that the eldest princess was too confident in herself and underestimated Yunzhi. There was no one guarding the secret room, so Yunzhi left very easily.
Immediately after leaving, Yunzhi sent a message to Lu Cang of Dongli, telling him what had happened that day.
Upon learning that Yunzhi had gone to the palace, Dongli Lucang headed towards the palace without saying a word.
In order to prevent the princess and the others from discovering that she had come out, Yunzhi deliberately disguised herself as someone else.
When Dongli Lu Cang saw Yun Zhi after she had been disguised, he asked with a smile, "How did you manage to turn yourself into this? Luckily, I was able to recognize you."
Yunzhi was very pleased to hear this and said, "It seems that the fake can't fool you."
"Zhizhi, don't worry, the princess and her group's scheme will not succeed. However, I don't want to marry a fake, so you should switch back with her as soon as possible."
“Okay, I’ll switch back after I get back from the palace.” Yunzhi nodded with a smile. She didn’t want a fake person to stand next to Dongli Lucang in her place and even have to go through a wedding ceremony with him.
As for the eldest princess, she went straight to the Empress Dowager's palace, and the first thing she did upon seeing her was to claim credit.
"Mother, I have already locked Yunzhi up and sent the fake one back. Once this is done, you and my brother must thank me properly."
"Don't worry, as long as it succeeds, you'll definitely get your share of the benefits."
However, the Empress Dowager was still somewhat uneasy and asked about the process again. Only after confirming that there were no flaws did she feel relieved and said to the Princess, "Go back first, and don't come to the palace again until it's done."
"Your subject obeys the decree."
After the eldest princess left, the Empress Dowager suddenly called out from behind the screen, "Sir, don't you think we should proceed to the next step?"
