As soon as the sky was slightly bright, Lu Zhaoling got up early as usual and practiced his knife in the courtyard.

In the past, Shen Fengjiu would come to give her some guidance, but this day, she waited for Lu Zhaoling to finish practicing the knife and had breakfast, and she didn't see him for a long time.

Lu Zhaoling thought about it, but still felt strange, and couldn't help but come to Shen Fengjiu's living room and knock on the door.

No response.

She pushed tentatively, and the door creaked open.

Shen Fengjiu was not in the room.

Later, until the afternoon, there was no trace of Shen Fengjiu.

Lu Zhaoling also asked Qiu Xi to go out to inquire, and everywhere he said that he had never seen Shen Gongzi.

Where did you go, this man......

Although Shen Fengjiu often saw the beginning and the end of the dragon in the past, Lu Zhaoling always felt a little uneasy this day.

In the middle of the afternoon, a famous palace maid came over with a food box, saying that the lady of Yonghe Palace made a small snack and gave it to Princess Tongguang to taste.

Lu Zhaoling looked at it absentmindedly, picked up two pieces of osmanthus cake and tasted it, it tasted good.

Eh...... Wait a minute...... The palace maid just now said, this is what Li Zhu'er did?

How could Li Zhu'er have such craftsmanship......

Lu Zhaoling felt that something was wrong, and was about to get up and ask Qiu Xi to chase the palace maid, but he didn't expect his feet to be soft and he sat back.

Odd...... What do you think...... It's a bit overwhelming......

Be...... Osmanthus cake......

Lu Zhaoling's mind sank, and he struggled to get up, but he was powerless to resist, and soon fell on the table, unconscious.

When I woke up again, it was pitch black.

For a while, Lu Zhaoling thought he was blind.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for his eyes to gradually adapt to the darkness, and his body gradually regained consciousness, and Lu Zhaoling began to be able to perceive the space he was in.

It was a cold, damp room with four walls, no windows, and only a small iron door.

Lu Zhaoling was tightly tied to a wooden chair, and even his feet were tied to the two chair legs, unable to move.

But his mouth is not stuffed with strips of cloth, and he can still speak.

However, seeing that this place is airtight, I think the sound inside can't be heard from the outside, so I don't close it.

Thinking like this, Lu Zhaoling tentatively shouted twice, but there was no response.

Lu Zhaoling felt a sudden pain in her temples, she took a deep breath and tried to clear her mind.

What is this place? I don't know how long it has been since I fell into a coma, but I think I'm still in the palace.

It's very damp, like a dungeon.

Lu Zhaoling looked around carefully, guessing his situation in his heart.

Who could it be...... Sending someone to pretend to be Li Zhu'er to bring me snacks, it seems that he also specially picked the time when Shen Fengjiu was away, so he should be a familiar person......

I don't know many people in the palace...... Nor did he have any holiday with anyone.

That...... It can only be ......

Lu Zhaoling's mind was a mess, and she didn't want her guess to be right.

She closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths, forcing herself not to think about it yet, but to think about what she could do to get out of here.

The chair that tied Lu Zhaoling was in the middle of this room, there was nothing around, and the walls were bare, only an iron door.

Her hands were tied behind her back, her feet were tied to the legs, and the effects of the drug had not yet fully worn off, so she couldn't exert much strength.

When she looked down carefully, Lu Zhaoling realized that her coat had also been taken off, perhaps to prevent her from hiding some sharp weapons.

You've thought it through......

Lu Zhaoling sighed in his heart.

At this time, his body began to be less numb, Lu Zhaoling felt cold and couldn't help shivering.

We need to think of a way to do it as soon as possible......

Although he felt that there was almost no possibility of escaping from the current situation, Lu Zhaoling still twisted his body with all his strength and moved forward with his chair.

If you move to the door, you can find out if there is anything you can use.

Thinking like this, Lu Zhaoling gritted his teeth and tried to move forward a few times.

It's too hard......

She sighed.

His feet were tied, and he couldn't exert his strength.

However, after resting for a while, Lu Zhaoling continued to work hard.

I don't know how long it took, Lu Zhaoling didn't move far, she was taking a few breaths to rest, and the iron door slowly opened under her gaze.

A person walked in with a candlestick, and seemed to realize that Lu Zhaoling had moved his position, the man smiled and said, "Zhaoling, you really don't want to give up easily." ”

The iron door slowly closed behind him, and Lu Zhaoling watched the man walk towards her step by step, with her familiar, kind smile on his face.

It's the same as Lu Zhaoling guessed.

has always called her "Sister Zhaoling" enthusiastically, and left a green kiss on her forehead, the second prince Bai Xi.

In the flickering candlelight, his long and narrow Danfeng eyes smiled like a bewildering devil.

"Sure enough, it's you." Lu Zhaoling's heart tingled.

"Huh." Bai Xi laughed, "Zhao Ling, do you think that this palace is a little too stuffy?" ”

Lu Zhaoling didn't speak, and Bai Xi didn't care.

He continued to himself: "I often feel that this palace is covered by something, as if it is not breathable, and it makes people panic. The people in this palace must be meek and careful to open their mouths and breathe in order to survive, and if they are not careful, they will suffocate to death. Isn't this a scary place, you say? ”

"Aren't you doing well?" Lu Zhaoling raised his head and stared at Bai Xi who was standing in front of him.

"Did you think I was like a devil?" Bai Xi looked down at Lu Zhaoling, his face distorted by the candlelight.

"Yes." Lu Zhaoling said.

"Huh." Bai Xi smiled instead, "Only the devil can survive in Anping's palace." ”

"Bai Heng doesn't want to fight with you at all, why do you have to put him to death?"

"Zhao Ling, you are like this, you are obviously unable to protect yourself, and you still want to seek justice for Bai Heng." Bai Xi leaned down, his fingers swept across Lu Zhaoling's face, cool, and slid down her fair neck.

Lu Zhaoling was numb, tilted his head to the side, and struggled to dodge.

"Since I was a child, I knew how to survive in the palace. I have to learn to hide myself, I have to be docile and innocent, and I can't let my father think I'm weak. It's actually hard, but I'm doing well, and I'm at home in the palace. ”

"You're really good at disguise." Lu Zhaoling said coldly.

Bai Xi didn't care about Lu Zhaoling's ridicule, and continued: "Actually, I hated you a little at first, because you were so incompatible with this palace. Obviously you are a princess, why don't you understand the rules of survival like this? Someone like you should have died many times in the palace. I used to wonder if it was because of the way you looked that you were abandoned by your father and sent as a hostage. ”。

"But then, I found that I grew to like you, Zhao Ling. Despite my many lies, this one is true. Bai Xi leaned into Lu Zhaoling's ear, and her warm breath spewed at the root of her ear, "You are like a piece of pure jade, crystal clear, shining and attracting me, I want to think so much, I want to ...... Crazy to take possession of you. ”
