Chapter 155: Got Caught? How to Break the Situation
The two of them hurried along the way and approached a somewhat desolate and deserted side hall. He Zhaojun did not say a word, but looked around along the way. When she touched the dagger tied to her thigh, she felt slightly relieved.
"Hasn't it arrived yet?" He Zhaojun sneered in her heart when she saw that the palace maid's legs were weak.
The man turned around and looked around: "Young lady, please go in by yourself. The Fifth Princess's people are nearby. I dare not go in anymore." After saying that, she ran out without looking back, seeming to be extremely scared.
He Zhaojun thought for a while, pushed open the palace door with a "creak", held her breath, and walked forward carefully: "Shao Shang? Are you here?" A hint of quiet fragrance came into her nose. He Zhaojun collected her thoughts and covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.
Just as she reached the palace, the door ten steps behind her was suddenly closed. There was a "clattering" sound of chains, as if someone had locked it. He Zhaojun felt relieved.
It seems that today's situation is aimed at me and has nothing to do with Shao Shang. As long as she is not hurt, it will be fine. Thinking of this, I didn't pay attention to my feet.
"Ouch..." She stepped on something and the person under her feet moved, which scared her. She raised the dagger in her hand and stabbed it at the same place.
But the man almost rolled and crawled to the side to hide: "Young lady, please have mercy! I was also deceived and came here."
He Zhaojun thought the voice sounded familiar, and with the sunlight filtering through the crack in the door, she could finally see clearly. Wasn't that the foolish Fifth Prince? Why was he so embarrassed?
His clothes were disheveled, his hair was undone, a strand of hair fluttered across his forehead, and his face was red and white, making him look extremely shabby. Before he could even ask a question, the Fifth Prince clutched his chest in pain and fell to the ground, groaning.
"There's something weird in this room. I'm feeling very hot... Help, blood!" He covered his face with his hands, and when he took his hands off, two nosebleeds flowed down his chin and dripped all over the floor.
The fifth prince almost fainted after just one look. The thing he feared most in his life was seeing blood. Now he thought he was hopeless and that was why he was bleeding from all seven orifices. He lay on the ground in fear, unable to move.
He Zhaojun looked around and found that the window was definitely locked. Thinking of the strange fragrance she had smelled before, He Zhaojun felt a little dizzy and her ears were buzzing.
"Stay here and don't move!" He Zhaojun threw the handkerchief in her hand on the fifth prince's face, "Cover your mouth and nose tightly and breathe steadily." As she spoke, she walked towards the place where the smoke was rising, and sure enough, she found a smoky incense burner with the incense sticks in it half burned.
You don't have to think about what it is, but the person who did it didn't expect that the Fifth Prince would be so weak. After being inhaled by the incense, he was not as strong as before, but instead had a nosebleed.
She extinguished the incense, took out a handkerchief, carefully wrapped half a piece of spice, and placed it in her arms. The slightest movement made He Zhaojun feel a cold sweat on her body. She shuddered and thought to herself that something was wrong.
The Fifth Prince lay on the ground, unable to move, his life or death uncertain. If she fainted here, she would truly become a lamb to be slaughtered. Thinking of this, she drew her dagger, hardened her heart, and slashed it across her arm.
"Oh... Lord An Cheng, even if being in the same room with me makes you so angry, you don't have to commit suicide..." The fifth prince struggled to get up from the ground, covering his nose with a handkerchief, and stood aside staggering.
He Zhaojun glanced at him and suddenly moved her ears: "Fifth Prince, someone is coming. I'm afraid it's the instigator, and he's planning to bring people to catch the adulterer."
Upon hearing this, the Fifth Prince's legs gave way and he fell headfirst onto the ground, his forehead bruised and purple. Tears streamed down his face. "Third brother will chop me up! Think of a solution!"
