Chapter 308: Marquis Mansion Madam vs. Younger Prince 51
Ah Qing was very strong. He grabbed Zhao Baozhen who was trying to escape and said sternly, "Don't refuse my offer. Follow me obediently. I promise not to hurt you. If you dare to run again, I will knock you out with one palm and bring you to His Highness."
Zhao Baozhen's arm was pinched so hard that it hurt. She didn't understand why the Third Prince treated her like this. She just admired him and had no bad intentions.
She knew that the Third Prince didn't like her, but her mother said that the Third Prince was a gentleman and would not do anything to her. She asked her to meet the Third Prince more often and she would naturally fall in love with him over time.
How could the Third Prince be so cruel? If he didn't like her, he wouldn't have to poison her, right? She could choose not to marry the Third Prince, but she didn't want to die.
Zhao Baozhen began to cry, "Sister, please let me go. I won't dare to do it again. I will never bother the Third Prince again. Isn't it okay if I don't marry him? I don't want to die..."
Ah Qing covered Zhao Baozhen's mouth. How could this woman still be so noisy even after being drugged by the Hehuan Powder?
"Stop arguing! It's too late for you to say anything now! Who told you to cling to the Third Prince without knowing whether to live or die? You have brought this upon yourself. Just accept your fate!"
The Second Prince would never let the Third Prince marry Zhao Baozhen. Zhao Baozhen had only two choices: either die or marry the Second Prince and let the Zhao family serve the Second Prince!
Ji Yunhuan saw that Zhao Baozhen had been drugged. In front of him was a dilapidated palace, which was the cold palace during the previous emperor's time. It was now abandoned. It was said that this place was haunted and there were wronged souls wandering around in broad daylight, so few people came here.
Ji Yunhuan suspected that the second prince was hiding inside, waiting for Zhao Baozhen to come to him.
Zhao Baozhen lost her innocence and was charged with seducing the prince. Zhao Baozhen could become the second prince's concubine, and the Zhao family had to be grateful to the second prince.
Zhao Baozhen couldn't be allowed in. If the two of them bumped into each other in broad daylight, Zhao Baozhen's clothes would be in disarray and she would be unable to explain herself if someone saw them.
"Baozhen! Baozhen, where are you? The Queen asked me to look for you. The Queen is still waiting for you in Fengyi Palace. Where have you been hiding now?"
"You are so disobedient. Madam Zhao will teach you a lesson someday. This is the imperial palace. How dare you run around? Baozhen, I can see your cloak. Come out now and stop hiding!"
Ji Yunhuan was holding a fiery red cloak in his hand, looking around and walking over, shouting so loudly.
She was using the Empress's name to scare away the green-clothed palace maid. Even though she was alone, she represented the Empress, who would send people to look for her, and the green-clothed palace maid would be wary.
“Sister Huan! Sister Huan, I’m here… woo woo…”
Zhao Baozhen bit the green-clothed palace maid's hand hard and finally cried out, but she didn't know where the green-clothed palace maid pressed on her and she was in so much pain that she couldn't speak.
Ji Yunhuan pretended to have just noticed Zhao Baozhen's appearance and ran over with a look of surprise on his face.
"So she's hiding here. It took me so long to find her. This maid looks unfamiliar to me. Which palace is she from? Please take care of Miss Zhao. If the Queen knows about this, she will definitely reward you."
Ji Yunhuan extended his hand to the maid in green, as if he had not noticed anything strange about Zhao Baozhen, and said with a smile:
"Leave Miss Zhao to me. What happened today was all Miss Zhao's fault for being playful. I will never tell anyone else."
Ah Qing stared at Ji Yunhuan for a long while. She understood that Ji Yunhuan wanted to get away with this matter.
As expected of the legitimate daughter of the Ji family, she is very careful with her words. If she doesn't hand over Zhao Baozhen and the matter is reported to the Queen, she will surely die.
If she handed over Zhao Baozhen, Ji Yunhuan would definitely keep it secret for the sake of Zhao Baozhen's reputation.
Ji Yunhuan was not completely sure, she was just gambling, but she had a gentle smile on her face, as if everything was under control.
"Miss Zhao likes to play a lot. It looks like she has a fever. She can't stand in the wind. She should come to my place."
Ah Qing was a little hesitant.
When Zhao Baozhen saw Ji Yunhuan, it was like seeing a relative. Tears welled up in her eyes and she kept throwing herself on Ji Yunhuan.
“Sister Huan, save me…save me…”
But she felt weak all over and couldn't exert any strength at all, and was soon grabbed back by the palace maid.
Ah Qing pulled Zhao Baozhen's arm and sneered, "I know Miss Ji is smart, but don't waste your energy. She must come with me today, otherwise she will die!"
Hehuan Powder is the most powerful aphrodisiac in the second prince's hand. No woman can withstand it. No matter how strong-willed a woman is, she will eventually turn into a pool of spring water. The second prince has tamed many women with this medicine.
At that time, she saw with her own eyes a woman who refused to obey and scratched herself until she was bleeding. However, this medicine could not be endured by just overcoming the lust. There was a trace amount of poison mixed in the Hehuan Powder, which would stimulate the medicinal properties of the Hehuan Powder. If she did not vent her lust, she would suffer from the pain of her heart burning with fire.
In the end, the woman was fed the Heart-Eating Pill, which was ten times more toxic than the Love Powder. She had to take the antidote every month. When the pill attacked, the pain was unbearable until she died from the pain.
The Second Prince is cruel and ruthless. If she fails to complete the task today, the Hehuan Powder will probably be used on her.
Zhao Baozhen felt very uncomfortable and pulled her collar hard. In the cold winter, her whole body was steaming and her heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat. She was also itchy and painful. She grabbed her chest and cried breathlessly.
"Huan... Sister Huan, am I going to die? I feel so hot, so painful, and so uncomfortable! If I die, my mother will be so sad, sob, sob..."
Ji Yunhuan's heart moved and he opened the panel.
The two treasures "Qing Fengdu" and "Qing Xin San" are placed next to each other. One is a harmless aphrodisiac to the human body, and the other is a universal antidote.
There is too much malice towards women in this world, which can easily ruin a woman's life. Fortunately, she still has the "Qingxin Powder", otherwise Zhao Baozhen would not be able to escape today.
Even if she could take Zhao Baozhen away safely and invite an imperial physician to treat her on the spot, not to mention whether she could be cured completely, if a woman was seen in such an ugly state by others and a few rumors spread, Miss Zhao's reputation would be ruined.
A white light that only Ji Yunhuan could see poured into Zhao Baozhen's body.
Zhao Baozhen felt a chill coming over her and shivered. She no longer felt hot and her heart no longer ached. The most important thing was that she finally had strength back.
She liked sweets and had a plump figure, unlike those weak and frail ladies in the capital.
Zhao Baozhen didn't have time to think, she stepped hard on the green-clothed palace maid, struggled hard to break free from the maid's restraints, and finally escaped into Ji Yunhuan's arms.
She couldn't stop crying and her tears covered Ji Yunhuan.
She had never encountered such a terrible thing in her life. The biggest setback in her life was the Third Prince's cold words to her. Today she really thought she was going to die.
"Sister Huan, the Third Prince is so mean! He tricked me out. Did he want to poison me to death? Stay away from him in the future. Don't let him harm you!"
