In this moment full of uncertainties, he chose to take risks for the greater good. This is such a big heart and responsibility.

The golden sunlight shines on the ground through the window, but it cannot dispel the haze in their hearts. There was a dull atmosphere in the air, as if foreshadowing the coming storm.

Zhao Zhizhi frowned, her eyes full of worry. She knew that Wei Shao's decision meant that he would face huge risks. But she also knew that stopping him wasn't a wise choice.

She could only pray silently, hoping that his actions would succeed and bring peace to both countries.

Wei Shao seemed to see her worry. He patted the back of her hand gently and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will be careful."

Zhao Zhizhi nodded slightly, but the uneasiness in his heart did not dissipate.

She knew that the impact of this war was far greater than they imagined. Whether it is Northern Xinjiang or Chaoyun, the people will suffer because of this. She hopes that Wei Shao's actions can change all this and let the dawn of peace shine on the earth.

Suddenly, a palace official came over and called Zhao Zhizhi, looking very anxious.

"Miss Zhao——!"

"Come out quickly!"

Zhao Zhizhi was chatting with Wei Shao inside the house, but was a little surprised when he heard someone calling outside.

Wei Shao and Zhao Zhizhi looked at each other, a trace of worry flashed in their eyes, and then they both stood up almost at the same time and walked out of the house.

An anxious-looking palace maid stood outside. When she saw Zhao Zhizhi coming out, she immediately stepped forward to greet her and said nervously: "Girl, something happened to our Princess Zelan. Please follow us, girl, and get there quickly!"

When Zhao Zhizhi heard this, a hint of surprise flashed across his face. Princess Zelan has always been in good health, how could something suddenly happen to her?

Wei Shao also frowned and looked at the palace maid and said, "What happened? The palace maid next to Princess Labor came to invite her in person?"

The palace maid said anxiously: "I don't know the specific details. I just know that the princess suddenly fainted and the imperial doctor is giving emergency treatment. Please ask Miss Zhao to follow me to see her soon."

Zhao Zhizhi and Wei Shao looked at each other, and Wei Shao said, "I'll go with you."

Zhao Zhizhi shook his head slightly, looked at Wei Shao and said, "Just stay here and wait for me. I'll go over and take a look myself."

She knew that Wu Zelan had always been interested in Wei Shao and did not want him to follow her.

Wei Shao heard what Zhao Zhizhi meant, nodded slightly, looked at her and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."

Zhao Zhizhi hurried to Wuzelan's palace with the palace maid. The palace's long corridor was far-reaching and palace lanterns were swaying on both sides. She couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in her heart.

I don’t know what kind of hole this Uzelan wants to dig for her!

Arriving at Wuzelan's bedroom, Zhao Zhizhi hurried in.

Many palace maids and imperial doctors had gathered in the palace. Seeing Zhao Zhizhi come in,

A palace maid stepped forward and saluted: "Miss Zhao, you are here. The princess is waiting for you inside."

Zhao Zhizhi nodded slightly and followed the palace maid into the inner room.

The inner room was decorated very luxuriously, and Wu Zelan was lying on the bed, his face pale.

Seeing Zhao Zhizhi come in, Wu Zelan tried his best to put on a smile and said feebly: "Zhao Zhizhi, I thought you were too timid to come here!"

Zhao Zhizhi looked at Wu Zelan's appearance. Although he was a little confused, he still stepped forward and asked: "What's wrong with the princess? Why did she suddenly faint when she was fine?"

There was a hint of haze in Uzelan's eyes, and she struggled to sit up and lean on the head of the bed. "I am poisoned."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Zhizhi was stunned. She never expected that Wu Zelan would actually say that she was poisoned.

"Poisoned?" Zhao Zhizhi exclaimed, "How could you be poisoned? Have you eaten anything unusual recently?"

A trace of resentment flashed in Wu Zelan's eyes, and she whispered in Zhao Zhizhi's ear: "I know that you are the person Wei Shao cares about most. As long as you obey me, I can spare your life."

When Zhao Zhizhi listened to Wu Zelan's words, he felt a chill rising up his spine. She didn't expect that Wuzelan would use such a method to deal with herself, and she felt shocked and angry for a moment.

"What do you want me to do?" Zhao Zhizhi tried to calm down and looked at Wu Zelan and asked.

A sneer appeared on Wuzelan's lips, "I want you to leave Wei Shao and never appear in front of him again."

Zhao Zhizhi felt that the anger in her heart was burning. She could tolerate Wu Zelan dealing with her, but she could not tolerate her hurting Wei Shao.

"Impossible!" Zhao Zhizhi refused without hesitation, "I will not leave Wei Shao."

Wu Zelan obviously did not expect that Zhao Zhizhi would reject her so firmly. Her expression changed and she shouted angrily: "Don't you be ignorant! If you don't cherish the opportunity I gave you, then don't blame me for being rude."

After saying that, she waved her hand and signaled the palace maid and the imperial doctor next to her to leave.

When only the two of them were left in the inner room, Wu Zelan said coldly: "If you don't listen to me, I will say that this is all your fault for me, and let you die together with me." !”

Looking at Wu Zelan's crazy look, Zhao Zhizhi felt chills in his heart. She knew that Wu Zelan was the kind of person who would do anything to achieve his goals, and she would never let her hurt Wei Shao.

"The princess' poison is not untreatable." Zhao Zhizhi took a deep breath and said, "I know a herb that can detoxify this poison. If you don't want to die, I can help you detoxify."

Uzelan obviously didn't believe it, "Are you telling the truth?"

Zhao Zhizhi nodded, "It's absolutely true! But I have a condition."

"What conditions?" Uzelan asked warily.

Zhao Zhizhi looked at her and said firmly: "I want you to let Wei Shao go and never look for him again."

Wu Zelan was silent for a moment, then sneered, "Okay! I agree to your conditions. As long as you find the herb as soon as possible to detoxify me, I will never see him again."

Zhao Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief, "It's a deal!" After saying that, she turned and left the palace.

Wei Shao paced back and forth in the side hall, feeling very worried about Zhao Zhizhi. He didn't know what happened to Wu Zelan, or whether Zhao Zhizhi could come back safely.

Just when he was worried, Zhao Zhizhi came back. He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Zhizhi, are you okay?"

Zhao Zhizhi looked at Wei Shao's concerned eyes, and the tension and worry in his heart instantly dissipated. She smiled slightly and said, "I'm fine, don't worry."

Wei Shao looked at her, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes, "Are you sure you're fine? Why do you look so bad?"

Zhao Zhizhi didn't want to hide anything from Wei Shao, so he whispered: "Wu Zelan has been poisoned, and I promise to help her find an antidote."
