Chapter 175 Ex-husband, it’s you
"Second Prince, please monitor me personally to prevent the Second Prince from having random thoughts." Qin Zhao took the initiative to mention this matter to dispel Seth's doubts.
Seth meant exactly that.
He asked his subordinates to monitor her. To be honest, he was afraid that they would be deceived by Qin Zhao, a scheming woman. He would feel relieved only if he personally guarded Qin Zhao.
Under his nose, Qin Zhao's attempt to escape was nothing more than an idiot's dream.
Just like that, Qin Zhao got out of bed slowly. She felt her feet on the ground, then her legs went weak and she knelt down on the ground, a little embarrassed.
Seeing this, Seth shook his head, accusing Qin Zhao that this woman was not ordinary delicate.
Of course he didn't know at this moment that Qin Zhao's fragility was just an act. She was used to pretending to be ill, so she was pretending to be decent at this moment. Firstly, it was to delay time and wait for the effects of Seth's medicine to take effect.
Secondly, of course, let Seth relax his vigilance towards her, so that her chance of escaping will be greater.
If you fail to escape this time, it will be almost impossible to escape next time.
In order to escape successfully, she also worked very hard.
By the time Qin Zhao went downstairs and reached the hut, it had already taken him more than a quarter of an hour.
After Qin Zhao entered the hut slowly, she counted the time again. When she felt that a quarter of an hour was almost up, she Shi Shiran walked out of the hut.
Seth was waiting impatiently. When he saw Qin Zhao finally coming out, he said in a deep voice: "Go back to your room and rest. We have to get up early this morning and go on the road."
By this time, it was already past midnight.
Qin Zhao's heart dropped when he saw that Seth was still very energetic.
This made her wonder if she had taken the wrong medicine.
Seeing Qin Zhao staring at him, Seth chuckled: "What's that look in your eyes?"
It took Qin Zhao a while to hold back a word of praise: "I just discovered that the second prince is very handsome. He is actually more handsome than His Highness the Crown Prince."
It turns out that flattery works all the time, because Seth touched his face and smiled.
Seth's smiling face gradually became stiff, and then, Seth's body became unsteady. He quickly supported the wall and shook his head. Qin Zhao's face in front of him became increasingly blurred, and finally merged with the darkness.
Qin Zhao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Seth finally fell down.
She hurriedly messed up her hair and tied it into a traditional bun. A waiter from the store happened to come over. She hurriedly took off her earrings and stuffed them into the waiter's hands. "I'll buy this outfit you're wearing!"
As soon as the waiter saw the earrings, he knew they were valuable. He took off his coat without thinking about it.
Qin Zhao also avoided the taboo and put on his clothes directly in front of the waiter, and then whispered: "When someone asks about it later, just say you saw me running south."
She said and handed the hairpin to the waiter: "Thank you!"
The waiter took Qin Zhao's money and agreed without saying a word.
It wasn't until he watched Qin Zhao walk away that he looked at the quality of the hairpin, then narrowed his eyes with a smile. This time, he had hairpin!
After Qin Zhao walked out of the inn calmly, she saw that the carriage was still parked outside the inn and no one was guarding it. Her eyes lit up and she climbed into the carriage without saying a word.
The carriage was very spacious, and there was a large wooden box placed at the back.
She opened the wooden box and took a look. There were some men's clothes inside and there was still some space. When she climbed into the wooden box, she was glad for the first time that she was small and could fit more people like her in the box.
After hiding herself, she listened carefully for the movement at the door of the inn. About two-quarters of an hour later, there was movement inside, followed by the sound of footsteps approaching the carriage.
Her heart was in her throat, she just hoped that the waiter didn't betray her.
"Your Highness, the waiter said that Miss Qin ran south." Just when Qin Zhao was worried, the voice of a guard sounded.
"Chase!" Seth's voice was cold. He gave the order and everyone chased south.
Qin Zhao hid in the wooden box and did not dare to let out her breath. She did not let go of her hanging heart until all the footsteps disappeared.
At this time, she was exhausted physically and mentally. The medicine she had taken before made her eyelids tremble. She finally couldn't resist the invasion of drowsiness and fell asleep.
When she woke up again, she found that she was still in the wooden box, swaying as if on a carriage.
She looked through the gap and saw only a man's long legs and boots, which seemed a bit familiar.
If she got out of the box now, would she scare this man to death?
Although the wooden box was large, her hands and feet became numb after she stayed in it for so long.
She tried to stretch her legs and feet, but accidentally made a noise. At this time, someone shouted in a deep voice: "Who is it?!"
Qin Zhao was stunned when she heard this familiar voice. She looked at the man through the gap. At this time, someone opened the lid of the wooden box, and a long sword was pressed against her neck.
At this time, the man finally saw Qin Zhao's face clearly and exclaimed: "Qin Zhao?!"
"Ex-husband, is it you?!" At the same time, Qin Zhao also saw Zhao Yu's face clearly and couldn't help but sigh that he was lucky.
Although she and Zhao Yu were not friends, and Zhao Yu didn't want to see her when she was in the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Yu was an acquaintance at least.
Zhao Yu didn't know how to control his expression for a while.
He never expected to meet Qin Zhao again in such a situation, and...
"Why are you on my carriage?" Zhao Yu held back a question for a long time.
She is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's concubine. If he suddenly appeared in his carriage and let the Crown Prince know, would he think that she had eloped with him?
"It's a long story, but it's just a coincidence. I didn't expect it to be your carriage." Qin Zhao then roughly told the story of how he was kidnapped by Seth.
Looking at Qin Zhao who was embarrassed yet talking eloquently, Zhao Yu felt as if he had met her for the first time.
In the past, he only knew that Qin Zhao had a deep love for him, but later she was determined to divorce him. Later, she was pampered by His Highness in the East Palace and became His Highness's concubine.
Is this familiar yet unfamiliar woman in front of him his ex-wife?
"Anyway, this is the process. By the way, where are you going now? Just find a place to drop me off." Qin Zhao said, lifting the car curtain and looking outside.
It seems that we are on the official road. In the distance, there are mountains and mountains, towering into the sky, which is magnificent and extraordinary.
"As a woman, it is not safe for you to be alone. We will arrive in Changzhou in two days. How about this? After arriving in Changzhou, I will send a message to the palace..."
Before Zhao Yu finished speaking, he heard Qin Zhao's stomach singing a little tune.
Qin Zhao touched his stomach and didn't feel embarrassed: "I'm hungry."
As for returning to the palace, she actually had no idea. If she avoided the death disaster this time, there was no need for her to return to the palace.
Moreover, she and Xiao Ce had some words, wouldn't it be awkward to return to the palace?
After that, Zhao Yu took the dry food and handed it to Qin Zhao.
After Qin Zhao took it, he drank slowly, thinking about whether to get off Zhao Yu's carriage on the way...
