The Grand Princess

Chapter 81: Butterfly Gap 1

With their own minds, the two began to make their own preparations.

The case in Li Rong’s hands has come to an end. Everyone has been convicted, more than 70 officials, more than 40 demoted, 13 exiled, 7 executed, and a few others who committed suicide just after the investigation. It is not counted.

This zigzag came into Li Ming's hands, and Li Ming deliberated for a day, and finally left the word "quasi".

After the Zhezi was handed over to Menxia Province for review, Menxia Province refuted it on the same day, eloquently, counting down the past achievements of those officials, and summing it up in two words: too heavy.

Li Rong was too lazy to talk to these civil servants, so he asked Pei Wenxuan to write a book for her to curse.

Pei Wenxuan has been very good-tempered lately. He sat next to her at night, and when she cursed, he wrote it in another way.

When she was tired of scolding, he brought her a glass of water to moisturize her throat.

On the surface, she was fighting with these family members, and secretly sent someone to set up ambush in the Butterfly Gorge, preparing to go to the Butterfly Gorge. The day before, she ordered Shangguanya to bury gunpowder in the Butterfly Gorge just in case. That night, Shangguanya came to report to her: "His Royal Highness, have you ever mentioned the matter of setting up an ambush in the Butterfly Gorge?"

Li Rong looked up from the document: "What's wrong?"

"There is another group of people who are doing other things in Butterfly Gap."

"Something else?" Li Rong became wary. "Can you figure out who it is?"

"I thought you knew," Shangguan Ya laughed, "it seems to be a messenger."

"Punma?" Li Rong was a little surprised, "What are his people doing there?"

"I don't know yet, but they transported a lot of flowers in today, as if they were arranging something."

Li Rong heard what she said, thought about it, and then said: "If you have a lot of flowers, wouldn't it be a lot of movement?"

"Exactly." Shangguan Ya seemed to be a little pleased, "I was still sad at first. What if the Chen family is not moving about this matter? Don't worry about it now. I'm already shocked by this incident today. People from the Chen family. An informant from the Chen family reported tonight that there were many people in the Chen Mansion today. Mrs. Chen withdrew a large amount of gold and silver from the ledgers, fearing that she was preparing."

"Ginger is still hot." Li Rong felt a little helpless, "Sure enough, I still can't help Pei Wenxuan."

"He Ma is a wise man," Shangguan Ya laughed, "His Royal Highness has come to this point. He also understands that he can't stop Your Highness, so he just helped His Highness."

"If things happen tomorrow, everyone will have a reward."

Li Rong became happy, and then she remembered: "Is the gunpowder buried?"

"It's buried." Shangguanya said, took out the topographic map depicting the Butterfly Gorge, and pointed out the location to Li Rongdao. "Place these three points. After your Highness enters the Butterfly Gorge, jump in the third pond. After going down, swim to the west. After ten feet, you see the light probe, and it is a hidden small cave. Any accident, your Highness can hide in this cave."

Li Rong nodded, and after clarifying the whole process with Shangguanya in detail, when it was too late, he went out with Shangguanya. As soon as he reached the door, he saw Su Ronghua who was about to go out together. Su Ronghua bowed to Li Rong. Respectfully said: "Your Highness."

Li Rong nodded: "Master Su has gone back?"

"Yes." Su Ronghua laughed, "His Royal Highness and Miss Shangguan are planning to go back too?"

The three of them stepped out of the Supervisory Department together, and Li Rong laughed: "It's not too early."

"It's getting cold these days," Su Ronghua said respectfully as he drove Li Rong into the carriage, "His Royal Highness, I'd better go out less recently."

When Li Rong heard this, she couldn't help but pause. She turned her head and looked at Su Ronghua. After a long time, she smiled softly: "Thanks to Master Su for reminding him that it is late at night, Master Su still seldom walks at night. Right."

Su Ronghua chuckled, a little helpless on her face: "His Royal Highness, whether to walk at night or not is not determined by the minister. The only thing the minister can do is to walk under the light as much as possible."

"Crazy like Grandpa Su," Li Rong was somewhat puzzled, "Can't you choose to go or not to go?"

Su Ronghua didn't speak, he raised his hand to salute, and said in a low voice, "Send your Royal Highness."

Li Rong looked at Su Ronghua. After a while, she finally nodded, and said goodbye to Shangguan Ya and Su Ronghua.

When Li Rong returned to the mansion, he saw Pei Wenxuan waiting for her as usual. He heard her come back in advance and waited at the door. As soon as Li Rong entered the mansion, he saw the blue-clothed young man standing on the long corridor.

Li Rong laughed unconsciously when she saw Pei Wenxuan. She walked up to Pei Wenxuan, patted Pei Wenxuan on the shoulder, and encouraged: "Good job."

Pei Wenxuan was a little at a loss, he said carefully: "His Royal Highness said that he did a good job, referring to..."

"I know what you did in Butterfly Gap."

When Pei Wenxuan heard this, he was shocked. He didn't expect Li Rong to care about him so much, even inquiring about such details. Pei Wenxuan couldn't help but said: "Since your Royal Highness knows, then tomorrow..." Pei Wenxuan was a little uneasy, "His Royal Highness still plans to go to the appointment?"

"How can we not go after such a big thought?"

Li Rong laughed: "You can do what you want, but you have to do better."

Hearing this, Pei Wenxuan was a little stunned for a while. His heart beat quickly. Seeing Li Rong behind his back and walking towards the back, he opened his mouth and wanted to ask a lot, and felt offended.

Since Li Rong knows what he is doing in Butterfly Gorge, with her cleverness, she naturally knows what he is thinking. Does she still allow him so, does it mean... another response?

Pei Wenxuan didn't dare to think too much. He was afraid that he would think too much, so he couldn't help but talk a lot, but he was already prepared and wanted to talk about tomorrow, so he laughed and said solemnly: "Your Highness, rest assured , I will arrange it."

Li Rong nodded and said happily: "Okay, let's eat."

Li Rong was in high spirits that night, and Pei Wenxuan felt a little uneasy when she saw that she was happy.

He thought that Li Rong should be looking forward to his performance tomorrow. If he does not perform well, will Li Rong be disappointed?

He understands Li Rong's temperament, she is very defensive, and she shouldn't let her guard down just because he confessed. But she seems to be looking forward to tomorrow, she should be looking forward to what he can do for her tomorrow.

The little girl always has a bit of vanity, and wants to get special care and hospitality, but Li Rong sees a lot of big scenes, and Pei Wenxuan is not sure for a while whether he can give the answer that Li Rong wants.

Pei Wenxuan was thinking about tomorrow’s affairs, but he didn’t sleep all night, and turned over and over again at night, and was afraid of quarreling Li Rong. He only simulated tomorrow, everything that should be said and everything that should be done in his mind over and over again. Every detail...

After he confirmed them one by one, it was almost dawn.

Both of them had specifically asked for leave. Li Rong went to bed and fell asleep, while Pei Wenxuan got up early and went to the next room. After freshening up, it was not dawn before leaving the city.

Li Rong slept soundly. When she woke up, the sky was already bright. She yawned and got up and watched Jinglan come up to wait on her. She couldn't help but said, "Where's the husband? Why don't you see other people?"

"The consort has left early this morning."

Jinglan smiled and said: "He left a message, saying that he was waiting for His Royal Highness in the Butterfly Gorge in advance."

"How many people did he bring?"

Upon hearing this, Li Rong first considered Pei Wenxuan’s safety. Jinglan knew what Li Rong meant, and replied with a smile: "The horse took all the elite secret guards under his name. Don’t worry, your Majesty will make arrangements. Ok."

"That's good."

When Li Rong heard that Pei Wenxuan had brought all the elites out, he was relieved and was more sure about today's affairs. Pei Wenxuan knew about it.

She was waited on by Jinglan to put on her clothes, went to the dining room to have porridge, and was led by Jinglan into the carriage, and then headed out of the city.

Li Rong took a lot of people. They looked mighty. Jinglan and Jingmei sat in the carriage with Li Rong. Jingmei couldn't help but said, "His Royal Highness, you have brought so many people, who would dare to approach you?"

Li Rong was drinking tea, and when she heard Jingmei's flowers, she looked up at her with a smile and a smile: "You, you are still too young. If I don't take it by myself, I'm afraid that no one else will come close."

"Huh?" Jingmei was a little dazed, "I don't understand what your Highness said."

Li Rong smiled, sitting on the carriage with nothing to do, and patiently explained with Jingmei: "My identity is here, and now at the critical moment of the case, I still travel with such a high profile. If I don't take strict precautions around me, it must be There are back players. Compared to Ming Ming's strength, secret arrangements made the killers more afraid. After all, Ming Ming has so many people, and the degree of danger is here. Whether they have the ability to shoot, you can see at a glance."

"Then what if they watch your Highness take precautions and don't do anything?"

Jingmei was a little at a loss, Li Rong was rather helpless, took a fan and looked at her head, and said helplessly: "Naturally I got the news, so I will be so defensive. Don't worry."

Li Rong said with a cold look in her eyes: "Chen Guang is the only seedling of the Chen family. The old lady will save people even if she tries her best. If someone is willing to be a knife, how can anyone who wants to do it let go of this opportunity?"

"It just happened to be cleaned up," Li Rong laughed. "They want to kill chickens and monkeys and show them to the emperor. Show me, I really think I have a good temper. I can't help them."

When Jingmei listened to these words, she couldn't help but glance at Jinglan. In fact, she didn't quite understand, and seemed to understand.

Jinglan poured tea for Li Rong and said softly: "Your Highness is right."

Li Rong and Jinglan Jingmei were chatting, but Pei Wenxuan was busy in the Butterfly Gorge.

Pots of peony bloomed in the gorge. Pei Wenxuan directed this person to place the peony in a good position, turning the entire Butterfly Gorge into a sea of ​​flowers.

"Young Master," Tong Ye walked from the trail to Pei Wenxuan standing in the sea of ​​flowers, and said happily, "Your Highness is down."

Hearing this, Pei Wenxuan pursed his lips and smiled, then bowed his head and said: "Then I just started to warm the wine, and when your Highness arrives, there will be warm wine to drink."

With that, Pei Wenxuan asked him to put a small stove for warming wine on the long table he had set up, and then warmed up a pot of peach blossoms.

When the fire was set up and the wine was put on, Pei Wenxuan knelt down at the long table and raised his hand to touch the guqin on the long table.

He has not played the piano for many years.

Li Rong used to like to listen to him playing the piano, so he always played the piano for her after facing down. The girl will lie on the table, quietly looking at him, and when the song is over, she will laugh and say happily: "Pei Wenxuan, you are so beautiful."

He doesn't know whether this person really likes listening to the piano, or just thinks he looks good when he plays the piano, but that doesn't matter, she likes it, that's enough.

Pei Wenxuan raised his hand and gently brushed the strings, and at this time, Li Rong's carriage also left the city, further and further away from Huajing.

Seeing that they were about to reach the Butterfly Gorge, the feather arrows fell like rain and slammed on the wall of Li Rong's carriage.

The people outside looked up and turned, and the sound of hacking and killing suddenly became one.

Li Rong sat in the carriage calmly, and reminded the people next to him coldly.

"coming."
