Chapter 415: Last Words
The guards stood around the princess like a copper wall and an iron wall. Their eyes were sharp and they searched every corner around them meticulously. After a careful search, their eyes finally locked on a room. There was a slight noise coming from there, as if someone was moving restlessly.
"Your Highness, after our careful monitoring, only this room has the sound of someone." The head of the guards reported to the princess respectfully, with an unquestionable certainty in his voice.
The princess frowned slightly, and a complex emotion flashed in her autumn-water eyes. She knew very well that since Concubine An and the others had already heard the news, they might have already fled this place. They might have heard the news of their coming, so they gave up Zhao Shuo'er.
Zhao Shuo'er should still be in the room, and the princess calmed down again.
"It seems that they heard the news and ran away directly." The princess whispered to herself, with a hint of helplessness in her voice. But then, she regained her composure, knowing in her heart that the most important thing now was to rescue Zhao Shuo'er.
"You all retreat." The princess waved her hand to the guards, her voice firm and decisive. Although the guards hesitated, they finally chose to obey when they saw the princess's unquestionable eyes.
"Your Highness, there may be unknown dangers in the room..." the captain of the guards reminded with some concern.
"I know my limits." The eldest princess shook her head and interrupted the captain of the guards. She knew in her heart that Zhao Shuo'er's current situation might be very bad. If the guards saw his misbehavior, it would probably cause more trouble.
Qin Xixi naturally understood what the chief was thinking. She rushed forward, blocked everyone else outside the door, and brought a few trusted maids with her. Then, they followed the eldest princess and rushed into the room.
When they gently pushed open the door and walked carefully into the closed space, they instantly understood why the eldest princess had been determined not to let the guards follow in.
The scene before them was shocking. Zhao Shuoer stood in the middle of the room. Her neat clothes were now in disarray, with her shoulders exposed. It was obvious that she had taken off most of her outer clothes without knowing it, leaving only her underwear on. Her face was flushed, and the blush was not only due to the effect of the drugs, but also mixed with pain, struggle and helplessness. Her eyes seemed extremely confused, as if she was controlled by some irresistible force, and she was a little unconscious.
Such a scene made people feel pity and anger. Pity that Zhao Shuoer suffered such torture, and anger that those who did this to her were so cruel and ruthless. At this time, the hearts of the princess and Qin Xixi were filled with complicated emotions, but more of them were their concern for Zhao Shuoer and their determination to rescue her as soon as possible.
They quickly stepped forward and tried to stabilize Zhao Shuoer's shaky body. Although they knew that she might have increased her strength due to the effect of the medicine, they still couldn't bear to let her continue to suffer like this.
"Shuoer, hold on, we are here to save you." The princess called softly, revealing a hint of firmness and tenderness in her voice.
Qin Xixi quickly looked around for something that could ease her discomfort, hoping to relieve some of Zhao Shuoer's pain. She knew that time was running out and she had to take action as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Zhao Shuo'er trembled slightly in the arms of the eldest princess, her eyes were intertwined with lust and tears, as if she was experiencing an inner torment. She seemed to come back to her senses, raised her head with difficulty, and looked at the familiar and gentle face - the eldest princess.
Zhao Shuo'er knew her current situation very well. The power of the poison had made her unable to control herself. Only by interacting with Anyuesheng could she temporarily remove the deadly toxicity. But thinking of that man's meanness, her heart was filled with hatred and determination.
"I would rather die than let Anyuesheng succeed!" Zhao Shuo'er gritted his teeth and said, although his voice was weak, it was full of determination.
She looked at the eldest princess and Qin Xixi with gratitude, her heart filled with gratitude. When she was most desperate, they extended a helping hand and gave her a glimmer of hope. She knew that she didn't have much time left, but she had a wish in her heart.
"Your Highness the Princess... Shuo'er has something to ask of you." Zhao Shuo'er's voice gradually became weaker, but every word was full of power, "If I die... please... avenge me..." She had already seen the mastermind behind the scenes, and it was An Yueya who put her in despair.
"Your Highness the Princess... please kill my enemy for me!" Zhao Shuo'er spoke intermittently, as if she would lose consciousness at any time. The princess looked at her pale and determined face, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart. She gently stroked Zhao Shuo'er's hair, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes.
"Don't worry, Shuo'er. I will seek justice for you." The eldest princess' voice was gentle and firm, as if it injected strength into Zhao Shuo'er.
Even Qin Xixi couldn't help but look at Zhao Shuo'er with admiration at this time. She originally thought that Zhao Shuo'er was just a pampered young lady, but she didn't expect that in such a desperate situation, she could show such a strong side. This made her have a new understanding of Zhao Shuo'er, and she couldn't help but feel admiration in her heart.
[I didn't expect Zhao Shuo'er's ability to withstand is so strong. Even my eldest brother can't stand this love poison, but she can hold on for so long. She would rather fight with her life than lose her pride. It's really admirable! ]
Qin Xixi sighed silently in her heart.
Xiao Xixi thought so in her heart, and without further delay, she let Beibei out directly.
[Beibei, go and bite Zhao Shuoer and pass your eldest brother's blood to her.]
Qin Xixi gave an order to Beibei. She knew that as long as she had this blood, Zhao Shuoer would be saved and would not have to suffer this endless pain.
As for killing enemies with your own hands... it would be more satisfying to do it yourself!
Beibei listened to Qin Xixi's order, and without a moment's hesitation, it squirmed its flexible little body and quietly approached Zhao Shuoer. It gently bit Zhao Shuoer's finger, and Zhao Shuoer was in chaos due to the effect of the poison in his body. He was unaware of all this and was still telling his last words to the princess with his dying breath.
After a while, Beibei returned to Qin Xixi's side, and rubbed his little head against her palm, as if to tell her: "Everything is done."
Qin Xixi gently stroked Beibei's head, with a relieved smile on her face. She sat quietly by the side, waiting for Zhao Shuoer to gradually return to normal.
