Chapter 516: Secret Entrance

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The matter was settled.

When the Eldest Princess heard that Luo Cheng had found the Third Prince, Ling Heng, and asked him to send the antidote to the royal family with her, she was stunned.

To be honest, the Eldest Princess could understand Luo Cheng’s distrust of her.

Trust seemed simple, but it wasn’t easy to establish.

After all, she had never interacted with Luo Cheng that much.

What surprised the Eldest Princess was that Luo Cheng and Li Shun had such a good relationship.

Previously, she had only thought that Luo Cheng had a solitary personality and didn’t have a good relationship with the other princes.

She didn’t expect the Third Prince, who had always been impartial, to have such a good relationship with Luo Cheng.

Luo Cheng was even willing to entrust Li Shun with the big task of sending the antidote.

When Luo Cheng and Ling Heng met the Eldest Princess’s probing gaze, neither of them said anything and they let the Eldest Princess size them up.

They thought that the Eldest Princess would ask something, but even when the medicine delivery team set off, the Eldest Princess didn’t ask anything.

After Luo Cheng sent her out of the farmstead, he couldn’t help but remind her again.

“Third Brother, take care of yourself. I’ll also urge everyone to make the antidote! If there’s not enough medicine sent in this time, come and get it again! Remember, the person who comes to get the antidote can only be you, Third Brother. I won’t give it to anyone else!”

When Ling Heng heard Luo Cheng’s words, he knew that he trusted him, so his heart warmed.historical

“Don’t worry, I definitely won’t let you down!”

Luo Cheng nodded and watched the group leave.

Li Xiaoran stood beside Luo Cheng and sent the Eldest Princess and the Third Prince off with him.

She wondered if this trip would be a blessing or a curse!

When Li Xiaoran thought of this, her expression turned solemn.

There was no such thing as a carefree life in this world. It was just that someone else was carrying the burden.

The Eldest Princess and Third Prince, Ling Heng, were carrying the burden for them.

Of course, so were they!

Although they had not entered the royal family, they made a great contribution by developing the antidote and making so many antidotes! However, they couldn’t risk the safety of their family.

There were always many choices in life.

Everyone had different goals and made different choices.

At least, she didn’t regret making such a choice.

She believed that she wouldn’t regret it!

Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng.

“Li Xiaoran, why are you looking at me like that?” Luo Cheng turned around and noticed that Li Xiaoran was looking at him in a strange way.

Li Xiaoran smiled at Luo Cheng.

“Husband, have I ever praised you for being very handsome?! Every part of you is so handsome! Tell me, how can I not love you?!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s sudden confession, he immediately blushed.

“Li Xiaoran, why are you saying these things in this place?! There are some things we can talk about when we get back!”

With that, Luo Cheng walked over and hugged Li Xiaoran.

Seeing this, the surrounding guards smiled and turned their backs to their young master.

The Eldest Princess and the Third Prince walked towards the Grand Canal outside the capital with several carts of antidotes.

Seeing that there was no way out, the Eldest Princess wandered around the grass.

After walking around, the Eldest Princess walked back and waited patiently.

Althouqh Third Prince Ling Henz didn’t understand what the Eldest Princess wanted to do, he still waited patiently.

Gradually, the water flow in the canal began to subside.

After about half an hour, the water in the canal actually reduced.

Seeing this, the Eldest Princess said, “Let’s go”. Then, the group followed the Eldest Princess into the canal.

After everyone came in, the Eldest Princess pressed on the stone wall of the canal.

Soon, the passage closed and water surged out, making it impossible to see anything unusual.

After entering the secret passage, the Eldest Princess took out the night pearl she had prepared in advance.

After everyone was given one, the Eldest Princess reminded everyone to take the night pearls and walk according to the route she took. “Don’t wander around and don’t fall behind, or your lives will be in danger.”

When the people who followed them heard what the Eldest Princess said, they all became serious.

The rest of the journey became very boring.

Every once in a while, they would encounter a fork in the road.

Every time, the Eldest Princess would lead the way.

Gradually, they could no longer keep count of how many forks they had passed and how long they had been walking for.

Just as the group was about to fall into despair, the Eldest Princess’s voice sounded.

“We’re here! I’ll open the door to the tunnel later. Bring the antidote up in order. Don’t get separated! After you get out, don’t be in a hurry to leave. Wait outside. When everyone comes out, I’ll bring you guys away!”

Not long after she finished speaking, an exit appeared beside the Eldest Princess.

Because it was night outside, they could only look around under the dim moonlight.

The Eldest Princess stood at the side and watched as the people who followed them brought the antidote up.

After the last person went up, the Eldest Princess walked up and closed the secret passage.

After that, the Eldest Princess led a group of people straight to the emperor’s bedroom.

Upon seeing the Eldest Princess and his third son, Ling Heng, again, the emperor finally felt a little assured.

“Your Majesty, it’s good to see that you’re safe and sound!” The Eldest Princess said happily when she saw that the emperor was in the bedroom.

“I was wondering when you’ll come to see me! Where you’ve been recently?” The emperor was very happy to see the people he trusted.

“Don’t mention it. On the day of the accident, I went to Juxing Garden outside the capital. If Luo Cheng’s wife hadn’t thought of a way to bring us out, we might have been killed! Your Majesty, let’s talk about this in the future. Luo Cheng has made an antidote for mania. This time, Li Shun and I sent a batch in through the secret passage. After things stabilize in the royal family, Luo Cheng will send another batch of antidote into the capital!” The Eldest Princess said.

The emperor was overjoyed to hear that there was an antidote for mania.

“There’s an antidote for mania?”

“That’s right! It’s all thanks to Luo Cheng’s research that we were able to make this antidote! Your Majesty, let’s give these antidotes to those people with mania first! There’s already an army approaching outside the capital. The capital is in danger!” The Eldest Princess told him the news she had received with a serious expression.

The emperor had also received this news, so he had been anxious. Fortunately, the antidote for this batch of mania was sent over in time and would solve the urgent problem!
