Chapter 391: Whereabouts
However, after Lin Rusi learned about this, she wanted to go back and start the process of poisoning the Second Prince.
However, Li Jingyang felt that this matter was extremely risky.
After all, the Second Prince is in the capital city, and there are many guards protecting him.
"Asi, this is far too risky. I don't support you doing this."
Li Jingyang held Lin Rusi tightly in his arms and said in a low voice.
After all, Lin Rusi has already gone through such a thing, so how could Li Jingyang feel at ease letting her take another risk?
"Although you know a lot about using Gu poison, the Second Prince and his men are guarding the area far too tightly."
Upon hearing Li Jingyang's words, Lin Rusi curled her lips into a smile, touched her already swollen belly, and said nonchalantly.
"Your Highness, please rest assured, I am still somewhat confident. Besides, you will help me, won't you?"
Upon hearing Lin Rusi's question, Li Jingyang hesitated before nodding.
After all, Lin Rusi looked exceptionally confident right now.
So Lin Rusi returned to her bedroom and began to tidy up her things.
However, Li Jingyang was also helping Lin Rusi, and soon he had a lot of things in his hands.
Li Jingyang looked at the bottles and jars in his hands with a puzzled expression, and every now and then he would pick them up and ask Lin Rusi about them.
"Are these things really useful? Why do they look so ordinary and mundane?"
Seeing Li Jingyang's puzzled look, Lin Rusi replied with a smile.
"Of course they're useful! These things are treasures passed down to me by my master!"
Seeing Lin Rusi like this, Li Jingyang's suspicions lessened.
After getting ready, the two of them quietly boarded a carriage and arrived at the palace.
Before they arrived, the two of them had disguised themselves.
However, the entire trip did not go as they had expected.
The entire journey was exceptionally difficult, as there were indeed many guards standing watch outside the gate, and each of them was exceptionally perceptive.
Upon seeing Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi, everyone became more vigilant.
Fortunately, their arrival made the Second Prince and his group more vigilant.
However, the Second Prince is currently stretched thin, as he is tasked with monitoring both the Emperor and the Crown Prince.
The Second Prince also chose to turn a blind eye to the affair between Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi.
However, the Second Prince was ultimately afraid of Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi.
After all, the people the Second Prince sent out only wanted to assassinate Lin Rusi secretly, and did not want Lin Rusi and her group to find out.
But to their surprise, those people were quite loose-lipped, directly exposing the Second Prince.
"You lot must keep a close watch on this place and not let anyone else in, or I'll have your heads rolled!"
Seeing the fierce-looking second prince in front of them, the guards were extremely afraid.
However, Li Jingyang and Lin Rusi did not allow the Second Prince to succeed.
"Your Highness, although we didn't use any poison on the Second Prince this time, we still learned quite a bit of information."
On her way back, Lin Rusi had already removed her disguise and suddenly said to Li Jingyang beside her.
However, Li Jingyang found it rather strange, wondering what news Lin Rusi had seen.
"Does Your Highness remember that we passed by the dungeon on our way there?"
Upon hearing Lin Rusi's words, Li Jingyang suddenly realized something.
As the two of them passed by the dungeon, they happened to hear the guards grumbling outside the door.
"How long am I supposed to keep an eye on this woman? This is such a hassle..."
"Yes, yes, I think it's too simplistic to think that this woman could possibly cause any harm to that prince!"
"But I heard that this woman is that Lin woman's senior sister!"
……
Lin Rusi overheard everything the guards said, one after another.
When Lin Rusi heard the words "senior sister," her eyes immediately lit up. It seemed that Ye Ruoruo was being held captive here.
Lin Rusi's next task is to find a way to rescue Ye Ruoruo.
"I overheard what those guards were saying, so I guessed that my senior sister was being held there!"
When he heard Lin Rusi say this, Li Jingyang nodded in agreement, since he had also heard it.
"So I have to go and rescue my senior sister. I can't let her suffer in there any longer!"
Seeing Lin Rusi's indignant expression, Li Jingyang clenched his fists.
After all, Lin Rusi was already injured and frightened.
How could they possibly get Lin Rusi to take such a risk? Li Jingyang clearly disagreed.
However, seeing Lin Rusi's aroused state, Li Jingyang did not explain his intentions from inside the carriage.
It wasn't until they returned to the Prince's residence that Li Jingyang finally spoke.
“I think this trip is quite dangerous, so Asi should stay in the palace and wait for us to rescue Ye Ruoruo.”
When Li Jingyang finished speaking, Lin Rusi frowned, looking quite unconvinced.
Even so, Lin Rusi didn't say anything, it seemed that Lin Rusi wanted to sneak out again.
And so the two of them ate their dinner in silence.
As night fell, Lin Rusi began to act stealthily.
However, this time Li Jingyang was already more shrewd, so he would never let Lin Rusi run away like that.
Only after seeing Lin Rusi walk to the gate of the Prince's Mansion did Li Jingyang leisurely stand in front of her.
"Asi, it's so late, where are you going? It's already so dark, it's not safe to walk at night."
Lin Rusi was extremely shocked when she saw Li Jingyang appear in front of her.
After all, Li Jingyang was just in the study, preparing to write something.
"...Your Highness, I just wanted to go for a walk, I didn't intend to go anywhere, oh dear, it's so dark, I won't go out..."
Lin Rusi touched her head somewhat embarrassedly and tucked the hemp rope in her hand into her waistband.
While talking to Li Jingyang, he took a step back.
However, Li Jingyang saw all of this.
Li Jingyang reached out and grabbed Lin Rusi's wrist, throwing the rope to the ground.
"Don't I understand what you're thinking, little girl? You're definitely planning to sneak into the capital to rescue your senior sister!"
Upon hearing Li Jingyang's words, Lin Rusi's face turned pale, but she still stubbornly refused to admit it.
After all, Lin Rusi didn't want Li Jingyang to worry about her, and this matter was indeed quite risky, given that there were many guards in the dungeon.
