Chapter 245 People are treating me as a discarded pawn
No, I have to help him.
Gu Changfeng thought to himself and pretended to be a servant, bumped into Sun Ci who was walking over, and successfully replaced the poison.
Sun Ci had ulterior motives and didn't start scolding him as usual. He just glared at him and left in a hurry.
After entering the room where Wen Heng was changing clothes, Gu Changfeng took off his hat and breathed a sigh of relief. The next second, someone in the room shouted, "Who are you? Who let you in?"
Gu Changfeng took a closer look and found that it was Wen Heng's maid, who was combing someone's hair.
Wen Heng naturally saw him as well. Although he had advised himself many times in his heart that he should learn to accept the prince's kindness, when it really came to this, he still felt strange when the other party appeared in his room. How about discussing a marriage of convenience in the future?
"Your Highness." Wen Heng called him softly, "What are you doing?"
When the maid heard that it was the prince, her face turned red with shame and she went out with the things in her hand.
Gu Changfeng smiled faintly and showed the thing in his hand to Wen Heng, "I have a plan, I hope Master Wen can sacrifice himself and pretend to be poisoned."
Wen Heng also realized that someone was going to attack him.
He dipped his finger in water and wrote the word "Zhou" on the table.
Gu Changfeng nodded.
On the other side, Sun Ci was preparing to poison, but he couldn't find it after searching his body. It would be a big deal if this thing was lost!
Zheng Yuanqi waited for a long time but no one came back, so he shook his sleeves and went to look for him.
"What's wrong with you? You can't even handle such a small matter?" Zheng Yuanqi started complaining before anyone arrived, "How can you work for Brother Zhou like this?"
Sun Ci's face turned pale. Looking at Zheng Yuanqi's angry face, he subconsciously hugged him.
Zheng Yuanqi was a little excited, his hands were shaking with joy, and his voice softened: "What's wrong?"
Sun Ci didn't feel that he had lost his composure and almost cried, "Something is lost."
This thing is the only thing they will use today.
If the substance used to poison Wen Heng was found by others and used accidentally, not only would Wen Heng not die, but all of these suspicious persons would also be unable to escape!
Zheng Yuanqi grabbed Sun Ci's shoulders and said, "Brother, don't panic. Anyone who uses this thing will die. Even if they die, they will never be able to find us!"
"But, but my hand, I touched it."
Seeing Sun Ci almost putting his fingers into his mouth in panic, Zheng Yuanqi was scared to death. He stopped him and washed his hands with a handkerchief himself.
If it wasn't for the wrong timing, Sun Ci would have wanted to say something about such an intimate action, but he had done something stupid, so how could he have the face to say anything?
Zheng Yuanqi had soiled his handkerchief and there was really no way to get rid of it.
If there really is an unlucky person who died at today's poetry reading, this handkerchief will be the physical evidence!
He is too careless!
Sun Ci naturally realized this, and he took Zheng Yuanqi's hand and ran out. The two of them left the Wen Mansion in front of so many people.
As expected, the Zhou family’s carriage was missing.
Sun Ci was tired from running, and said with some sadness: "Look, they are using me as a pawn, and I have implicated you..."
Zheng Yuanqi found it a little funny. His brother was even dumber than he was. How come he just realized it?
"Now I'm an abandoned child! What should I do in the future? Brother, please support me!" Zheng Yuanqi thought about it and said what was in his heart.
Sun Ci thought he was joking: "Okay, okay, it's me who implicated you anyway."
"I'm afraid that the first one who won't let me go will be your elder brother, and your elder brother is Brother Zhou."
Zheng Yuanqi twisted Sun Ci's ear and said, "Why are you so cautious? I will protect you from now on, so who can bully you?" He lit his handkerchief and threw it into a stove on the roadside.
This place is very far away from the Wen Mansion. As long as nothing goes wrong, they will be safe, but they will also lose Zhou Chaoyang's trust.
Sun Ci watched the handkerchief turn into ashes, and he regained consciousness. "You have taken care of me for a long time."
Zheng Yuanqi was still in the mood to joke: "Now we have completely offended Brother Zhou. How about you follow me from now on? Call me Brother Zheng now?"
The poisoning attempt failed this time, and Zhou Chaoyang could never get up in front of Wen Heng again. The two of them could only rely on the Zheng family.
Sun Ci's heart moved, and looking at the other person's smile which was as bright as it was five years ago, he almost spoke out what was in his heart.
"I..." I'll follow you.
