Huanzhu Time Travel: Yan Luo's Unbreakable Love in the Yong Dynasty
Chapter 129 Trapped in a Predicament Again
Little Swallow looked at Hongli, panting, and said, "Your Highness, this Minister of Rites is so hateful, he's like a persistent ghost!"
Hongli frowned and said, "My dear consort, their ruthlessness must stem from the immense profits behind their conspiracy. We must not back down."
Hongzhou clutched his injured arm, gritting his teeth: "Fourth Brother, this time when we return to the palace, we will make that Minister of Rites pay a heavy price!"
The primary consort of the Fucha clan also said, "Your Highness, we must quickly think of a way to get rid of them completely. This is not a long-term solution."
The group continued onward, but before they had gone far, their path was blocked by a huge boulder.
Little Swallow's eyes widened in surprise. "What should we do? Could this be a trap set by the Minister of Rites?" she exclaimed.
Hongli stepped forward to examine the scene and said, "Judging from this, it doesn't seem like a stone that fell naturally. I'm afraid it was intentional, and they want to trap us here."
Hongzhou said anxiously, "What do we do now? We can't just sit here and wait."
At this moment, Consort Fucha noticed what appeared to be a path in the nearby woods. She pointed to the path and said, "Your Highness, there's a path over there; perhaps we can go around it."
The group walked along the path, but as soon as they entered, they felt a strange fragrance permeating the surroundings.
Little Swallow sniffed the air and said uneasily, "This smells strange. Everyone be careful, it might be poisonous!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hongzhou felt dizzy and lightheaded: "Oh no, I think I've been poisoned!"
Little Swallow quickly helped Hongzhou up and called out, "Prince He, how are you?"
Hongli also sensed the danger and said, "This is a trap! Everyone, hold your breath and retreat!"
However, their escape route had been blocked by a group of men in black.
The leader of the men in black sneered, "Prince Bao, do you think you can escape? Just obediently prepare to die!"
Hongli roared, "You've used such despicable methods! I will not let you get away with this!"
Xiao Yanzi was extremely anxious. She looked at the poisoned Hong Zhou and then at the enemies around her. Suddenly, she remembered the letters and blueprints in the package. Perhaps there was a way to cure the poison inside.
She hurriedly opened the package and began searching through it, saying as she did so, "Your Highness, there might be something in this package that can cure Prince He's poison. We must find it quickly."
Consort Fucha, the primary wife of the emperor, also came over to help, saying, "Little Swallow, I'll search with you."
In the nick of time, Little Swallow finally found a note that seemed to contain some antidote recipe.
She exclaimed excitedly, "Your Highness, we've found it! But where are we going to find the medicinal herbs on this list in such a short time?"
Hongli looked at the note, pondered for a moment, and said, "Let's not worry about that for now. Let's get out of here first, and then figure out how to find the medicinal herbs."
As he spoke, Hongli charged towards the man in black, engaging in a fierce battle. Xiaoyanzi entrusted Hongzhou to the care of Consort Fucha and joined the fight as well.
"You villains, today is your doomsday!" Little Swallow shouted as she fought, unleashing her original body's powerful martial arts skills, which made it difficult for the men in black to defend themselves.
Consort Fucha, the primary consort, took care of Hongzhou from the side, while also vigilantly watching her surroundings to prevent any enemy attacks.
During the battle, Hongli noticed that the man in black seemed to be protecting someone carrying a medicine box, and he guessed that the person might be related to the antidote.
Hongli shouted, "My beloved concubine, look at that man carrying the medicine chest! There's something fishy about him. Let's find a way to capture him!"
Little Swallow understood and rushed towards the man. The men in black tried to stop her.
"Getting close to him won't be that easy!" the man in black shouted.
Little Swallow nimbly weaved through the enemy ranks, shouting, "You can't stop me!"
After a fierce battle, Xiao Yanzi finally broke through the black-clad men's defenses and reached the man carrying the medicine box.
She grabbed the man and said sternly, "Tell me, do you have any antidote in your medicine box?"
The man trembled with fear and said, "Miss, I am only following orders. There are some antidotes in this medicine box, but I don't know if they can cure this gentleman's poison."
Little Swallow snatched the medicine box, opened it, and saw several bottles of medicine inside. She took the medicine and ran to Hongzhou's side, saying, "Prince He, try this medicine first."
The primary consort of the Fucha clan took the medicine and gave it to Hongzhou. After a while, Hongzhou's complexion gradually improved.
Hongzhou said weakly, "Thank you, Xiaoyanzi, I feel much better."
Hongli also repelled the men in black and came over, saying, "My dear consort, I owe you a great debt this time. If you hadn't found the medicine in time, I would have been in danger."
Little Swallow smiled and said, "Your Highness, we are family, it is only right that we help each other."
However, before they could even catch their breath, they heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, as if a large number of people were rushing towards them.
Little Swallow said nervously, "Your Highness, they're chasing us again. What should we do?"
Hongli looked into the distance, his eyes resolute: "No matter how many people come, we must break through and get back to the palace!"
The group rallied, preparing to face the upcoming challenges. But what dangers awaited them this time? How many more schemes and plots did the Minister of Rites have in store for them? And would the secrets behind the murals in the Shadow Pavilion gradually be revealed amidst these crises? The political winds in the palace grew ever more turbulent, and their fates became increasingly unpredictable.
This chapter concludes here. Stay tuned for the next chapter.
