Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

While giving instructions to his subordinates, Yan Zheng also realized that the situation was more complicated than he had imagined, so he decided to go to this area to investigate himself.

Chu Junting knew the strangeness of this place. This time, no matter what, he had to capture Zhao Qian and hand over all the evidence so that the Ling family and even Prince Che would have no chance to recover.

"I will go with you."

Yan Zheng glanced at Chu Junting and nodded in agreement, "Okay."

Seeing the two leave, Song Ruozhen did not immediately follow them. Instead, she took out a talisman and began to draw a talisman.

Given the current situation, without the talisman, finding the person would not be easy. However, we cannot delay any longer and must send them ahead.

Qing Teng and Bai Zhi were both filled with curiosity when they saw their princess start drawing talismans.

They weren't unfamiliar with the princess's methods, but each time they witnessed them, they couldn't help but be drawn in. Could it be that this talisman could directly locate people?

Watching Song Ruozhen pick up her brush, dip it in cinnabar, and skillfully draw on the talisman paper, her calm and composed demeanor exuded a confident air of self-assurance and a mysterious aura.

This is why the two of them admired the princess more and more.

However, upon looking at the cinnabar and talisman paper, the two couldn't help but exchange a glance, and a thought surfaced in their minds—

When did the princess bring these with her?

"I was in a hurry when I left, and I thought the princess didn't bring anything. I didn't expect her to bring so much stuff!" Bai Zhi asked in surprise.

Qing Teng was also surprised, but his eyes were full of admiration. "The princess is indeed very thoughtful. She must have guessed that she would need to draw a talisman before she left home, which is why she brought it with her. We should be more careful in the future!"

"you're right!"

Listening to their speculations, Song Ruozhen thought to herself that she had indeed been in too much of a hurry when she came out earlier and hadn't had time to think about it. However, she always kept these things in her spatial storage so she could take them out at any time.

Yan Zheng and Chu Junting had a special feeling after entering the manor.

Although it was just an ordinary village, not very large, it seemed to be shrouded in an invisible mist, giving it a feeling of being unable to see through it.

"It seems we can't split up and search anymore."

Chu Junting's expression was solemn because he had experienced being trapped in a maze of ghosts before and was familiar with these mystical methods.

If the two of them are together, they can look out for each other if they encounter trouble.

Once separated, if something happens, it's possible to not find the other person at all.

Yan Zheng nodded, "This person must be nearby, otherwise they wouldn't have gone to so much trouble in a village."

In other words, Zhao Qian must be the key!

As long as Zhao Qian is caught, this case will definitely be solved!

Both Chu Junting and Yan Zheng were experts, with sharp ears and eyes and keen senses. Originally, they could have completed their survey of this area in a short time.

Unfortunately, his senses were clouded at this moment, and he could only observe his surroundings through his eyes. Even the sounds around him seemed to have become smaller.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a faint sound came from afar, which the two immediately noticed and quickly rushed towards the source of the sound.

I'm afraid the assassins have already arrived!

Unfortunately, the sound was not clear enough, and it was even impossible to judge the distance by the volume of the sound!

The two could only move forward, trying to hear other sounds and not miss any possibility along the way.

Just then, Yunyang rushed over: "Your Highness, the Princess Consort asked me to give this to you."

Previously, Chu Junting had deliberately left Yun Yang by Song Ruozhen's side, worried that someone might take advantage of the situation to harm Ruozhen. Now, seeing him come over, he couldn't help but frown.

"How did you come?"

"The princess said that with this, it will be easier to find people."

Chu Junting understood as soon as he saw the talisman in Yunyang's hand. The moment he got his hands on it, he realized that his five senses, which had been affected, were completely restored!

"Talisman paper?"

Yan Zheng looked at the talisman that Chu Junting handed over, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He subconsciously wanted to ask, but seeing that Chu Junting was not surprised at all, he took it.

The next instant, he was shocked by this novel feeling and found it hard to believe.

"I never imagined that talismans could have such wonderful uses!"

He knew that items blessed by eminent monks had miraculous uses, but this was the first time he had experienced it so directly, and it was truly astonishing!

In the blink of an eye, the two rushed toward the source of the sound.

"Bang!"

A sound came from inside the house. When the two rushed in, they saw a man lying on the ground, clutching his injured chest, his clothes stained with blood.

The moment they saw his face clearly, they recognized him as the person they were looking for—Zhao Qian!

However, with a dagger stuck in his chest and his face deathly pale, he was unlikely to survive.

Seeing the other person flee quickly, Chu Junting immediately said, "I'll go after them!"

Seeing this, Yan Zheng said to Yun Yang, "You stay and watch over him, I'll go after him!"

When Song Ruozhen and the others arrived, they saw Zhao Qian lying in a pool of blood, while Chu Junting and Yan Zheng were fighting a man in black outside.

"Quickly call for help!" Song Ruozhen said hastily.

Qing Teng and Bai Zhi, seeing that they had finally found the person, hurriedly went to inform the others, determined not to let the man in black escape!

At the same time, Song Ruozhen walked up to Zhao Qian.

At this moment, his face was as pale as paper, but his expression carried an indescribable despair and regret.

"I've done so much for you, and in the end you want to kill me to silence me..."

Hearing Zhao Qian's mutterings, Song Ruozhen said, "Since you know you're not following a good master, you should expose everything they've done!"

As she spoke, she directly shoved a pill into his mouth.

Zhao Qian's eyes regained focus, and when he saw Song Ruozhen clearly, his eyes were filled with a complex emotion.

"You don't need to save me!"

However, Song Ruozhen was too lazy to care. She really didn't want to save Zhao Qian, but Zhao Qian couldn't die right now. She had to make the Ling family pay the price!

"I won't help you!" Zhao Qian said sternly.

As he spoke, he reached out to press the dagger on his body even deeper.

"Your Highness, he wants to commit suicide!"

Bai Zhi and Qing Teng had just gathered everyone when they saw Zhao Qian's actions. Unable to stop him in time, they hurriedly shouted.

"boom!"

Song Ruozhen swiftly knocked him unconscious, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.

"Did he really think I wanted to save him? This kind of bastard who has harmed countless people deserves to die. If it weren't for getting information out of him, I wouldn't have wasted this precious medicine!"

Qing Teng and Bai Zhi looked at each other in disbelief. As expected of the princess!

"Judging from his appearance, even if he survives, he probably won't be willing to tell the truth."

Qing Teng frowned. "I've seen this kind of person before. It's not that they don't hate their master, but they know they weren't going to survive anyway."
