The Grand Princess - Chapter 158

Li Rong heard Li Chuan’s yelling, she turned her head anxiously and vaguely saw Li Chuan chasing from the crowd like an arrow from a string.

At the same time, they were chased by Pei Wenxuan, who was surprised by Li Chuan’s shout, and Su Rongqing in the crowd.

She could only see a shadow, and was reminded by the guard behind her: “Your Highness, get down!”

After speaking, the horse suddenly raised its hoof and heard another arrow rain, not knowing where it went.

“Sister!” Li Chuan watched Li Rong enter the woods. He whips his horse like crazy, his eyes are cracked, and people behind him follow him, anxiously said: “His Royal Highness, I will wait to enter the forest to save the princess. Risky!”

Li Chuan ignored other people’s words and rushed straight into the forest.

Pei Wenxuan could see his sister and brother rushing into the dense forest from a distance. He couldn’t help but cursed Li Chuan recklessly in his heart. His riding skills were much higher than Li Chuan. Although Li Chuan rushed through first, it was not long after entering the forest. , Was caught up by Pei Wenxuan.

Pei Wenxuan and Li Chuan rode side by side, anxiously: “Your Highness, the dense forest is dangerous, you…”

“You still need to talk about danger?!” Li Chuan turned his head and cursed, “What do you do with me? Go and save people!”

Hearing this, Pei Wenxuan suddenly reacted, Li Chuan entered the forest deliberately!

Those people forced Li Rong into the dense forest for the purpose of Li Chuan, so as long as Li Chuan came in, most of his troops would be used to encircle Li Chuan, so as to give Li Rong more opportunities.

“Pei Wenxuan, my sister will leave it to you,” Li Chuan squeezed the reins. He turned his head to look at Pei Wenxuan. He gritted his teeth and said, “If you dare to betray her, don’t let you be alone!”

After speaking, Li Chuan suddenly changed his direction and rushed towards another part of the dense forest. Pei Wenxuan watched Li Chuan curse and ran into the depths of the dense forest. He didn’t hesitate much, and led the person to Li Rong’s. The direction rushed away.

Li Rong couldn’t figure out where she was running or where she was going.

She only felt that there were chasing soldiers behind her, and the guard who was protecting her was finally shot down by an arrow. Blood splattered her all over, Li Rong took out a dagger from her arms and pierced it on the horse. The horse was frightened and moved forward frantically. She slammed on the horse, closing her eyes and dared not look back.

Pei Wenxuan looked at Li Rong who was running ahead. There were countless killers between them. Li Rong couldn’t stop. After stopping, he had no time to save her.

But if Li Rong kept going, at Li Rong’s speed, he would not be able to save her now.

So he could only chase after Li Rong closely. When the danger approached Li Rong, he asked the guards to protect him from the killer who came to block them, and when the danger approached Li Rong, he directed his bow and shot the people close to Li Rong.

After a stalemate for a while, the guard next to him finally reminded: “My lord, you must stop your Highness immediately, there is a cliff in front of you!”

Pei Wenxuan pressed his lips tightly and did not speak, he leaned slightly and stared at Li Rong in front of him.

He calculated the distance between the two. Li Rong’s horse could no longer stop. If it stopped, with the number of killers around Li Rong, it would be too late to rescue him.

Someone must come to Li Rong in advance to protect Li Rong and give them a chance to rush to Li Rong!

At this moment, he heard a loud call coming from a distance: “Pei Wenxuan!”

As soon as Pei Wenxuan looked up, he saw Su Rongqing in the distance, galloping towards Li Rong from the side.

Pei Wenxuan immediately understood that Su Rongqing was the one who protected Li Rong for a while and asked Li Rong for a bit of life!

He saw it, and the hidden killer also saw it, before Su Rongqing came to Li Rong, the last wave of arrows rained over the sky!

Li Rong clung to the horse’s mane and rushed forward, only to hear the horse scream, and then Li Rong felt the sky spin, the horse shook wildly due to pain, she finally couldn’t hold it, and the horse slammed it out. .

There was a cliff in front of her, and when she realized that she had fallen into the air, the will to survive made her desperately grasp everything that could be grasped.

Just in despair, a cold hand suddenly stuck out and grabbed her tightly.

Half of the man’s body has already been out of the cliff, and in this posture, he hardly has any place to bear the force.

So Li Rong only had time to raise her head to see the person’s face clearly, and watch that person fell with her.

At the moment when the person fell with her, Pei Wenxuan finally arrived, but he only had time to touch Su Rongqing’s half sleeve and watched the two fall straight together.

Before he could react, Zhao Chongjiu grabbed him and shouted anxiously, “It’s useless if you jump along!”

Pei Wenxuan was a little stunned. Zhao Chongjiu slashed away the assassin who rushed forward, and firmly grasped Pei Wenxuan’s arm: “My lord, the most important thing now is to keep the prince first.”

Pei Wenxuan listened and turned around to look at him. The arms he was holding by Zhao Chongjiu were tense. The whole person seemed to be trying his best to control his emotions. Zhao Chongjiu couldn’t help but let go of his voice: “My lord, you are now the biggest of your Highness. Hope. If you find your Highness earlier, your Highness will have more life.”

“I know.”

Pei Wenxuan lowered his head, he restrained his tone, “Immediately let people go down the cliff and search the bottom of the cliff to find the princess.”

“Other staff, go to the prince.”

When he said the first sentence, his voice was still a little trembling, and when he said the second sentence, he had completely calmed down.

He stood up on his own, and brushed away Zhao Chongjiu’s hand that was holding him, as if nothing had happened, but calmed the others: “I’m fine, I’m fine.”

As he said, he turned his head and looked at the fighting scene behind him.

Li Chuan attracted most of the killers in the dense forest. Li Rong fell off the cliff, and Pei Wenxuan no longer had to worry about anything. Looking at the killer surrounded by his people in the dense forest, he whispered: “Leave two live tortures. killed.”

After giving the order, he was escorted by other guards and walked towards the forest. As he walked, he arranged everything, as if what had just happened did not affect him, but Zhao Chongjiu looked away and saw that the hand holding the sword was always there. Unstoppable shaking.

When Pei Wenxuan led the people out of the dense forest, Shangguanya and Su Ronghua had already brought Yu Linwei to control the situation.

Li Ming returned to the palace early, and Li Chuan was rescued from the forest.

His body was full of wounds, Pei Wenxuan rushed over, Li Chuan managed to open his eyes, and looked at Pei Wenxuan pantingly: “Where is my sister?”

“The princess is fine. Your Royal Highness will rest first and take care.”

Pei Wenxuan responded calmly, and Li Chuan sighed. He still had a feather arrow on his shoulder, panting low, and told Pei Wenxuan: “I…I have to sleep. Wait for me, when I wake up, I want to see Sister Sister. .”

As he said, Li Chuan raised his eyes and looked at Pei Wenxuan, with a begging in his eyes: “I’m afraid you…I’m afraid you lie to me, I…I don’t worry.”

“His Royal Highness, please rest assured,” Pei Wenxuan stood up and ordered people to carry Li Chuan into the camp, then turned to look at Li Chuan, his expression was flat, “If the princess has an accident, I will raise my head to see you.”

After this, Li Chuan finally let go, panting, closing his eyes, and letting people go into the camp to recover from their injuries.

When Li Chuan entered the camp, Pei Wenxuan looked back at Shangguanya and asked Shangguanya to do everything tonight: “If Li Cheng is not dead, let people stare at the palace. I am afraid there will be some variables in the northwest. Lin Feibai’s people are always ready to enter the country ahead of schedule. His Royal Highness’s injuries must be kept on watch. No matter whether it is life or death, it cannot be spread. There should be no major events tonight. Tomorrow, wait for me to return.”

“Await your return?”

Shangguanya frowned: “Where are you going at this time?”

“His Royal Highness fell off the cliff, I will go to find Your Highness.”

Shangguan Ya was stunned, Pei Wenxuan was so calm that she had no idea that something happened to Li Rong.

“I’m going to ask the eldest lady for the rest.”

Pei Wenxuan bowed, and before Shangguanya answered, he turned and left.

Shangguanya finally reacted and quickly said: “Pei Wenxuan, you…”

“I’m fine, I’m fine.” Pei Wenxuan turned his back to Shangguanya and nodded lightly, “Miss don’t worry.”

After speaking, Pei Wenxuan moved forward.

It was already night, and he was walking alone in the night. He walked very steadily at every step, but I don’t know why, but Shangguanya could see from the stride she tried her best to control, she could see some decisive embarrassment that had already lost control.

It seems that this person has exhausted his best and it is difficult to look back.

At that moment, Shangguanya clearly realized that it was Li Rong who fell off the cliff, but it was Pei Wenxuan who fell into hell.

“Aya.” Su Ronghua walked behind her, Shangguanya did not look back at him.

She stared at Pei Wenxuan’s walking back, her voice was very soft: “Did you see it, Su Ronghua,” she said, Shangguanya turned around and looked at the young man standing behind her, she smiled, “Su Rongqing has long lost control Yes. He formed an alliance with Concubine Rou, supported King Su, and used Hongde to frame Pei Wenxuan, military payment cases, imperial examination cases, and even now tax reforms and the winter hunting assassination. Your brother has participated.”

“He cannot tolerate His Royal Highness ascending the throne, and the Prince cannot tolerate him either.”

“I used to think,” Shangguanya turned her head and looked into the distance. Even in the suburbs, the stars in winter are not very real. Shangguanya smiled, “Except for your majesty, there is not much obstacle between us. . As long as the prince is enthroned, we can be together. In fact, you are right, and I do.”

“But then I slowly discovered that Su Rongqing can’t tolerate the prince, and you can’t give up Su Rongqing. I asked you if you would be the head of the Su family, and now I will ask you again.”

Shangguan Ya raised her eyes to look at him: “If the price of the prince’s enthronement is that Su Rongqing must die, would you like it?”

Su Ronghua didn’t reply.

There was clarity in Shangguanya’s eyes, and she laughed: “You don’t want to. And the prince is the foundation of my Shangguan clan. I can’t give up the prince, and I can’t depart from the family. So you see,” Shangguanya has a bit of water vapor in his eyes,” You and I are dead knots.”

“Thank you very much.”

Shangguanya walked to Su Ronghua, she stretched out her hand and took out a leaf card that Su Ronghua gave her.

“Thank you for letting me see that as a child of the family, I can live with my heart. But I’m sorry,” Shangguan Ya smiled, her voice hoarse, “I will never touch the leaf card in my life. ”

Shangguanya handed the leaf card to Su Ronghua. She raised her eyes and stared at the people in front of her. They were so close, so close that she could feel their breathing, their temperature, all of which seemed to be the rising smoke of two incense sticks, entangled to rise.

“Su Ronghua,” Shangguanya finally said, “Leave Huajing, visit the mountains and play, don’t come back again.”

When the schoolyard was in chaos, Li Rong was held tightly by Su Rongqing and plunged directly into the pool under the cliff.

The water waves came fiercely, and Li Rong instantly lost her mind. When she woke up again, she felt that she was lying on a pile of dead grass, and there was a fire nearby.

Li Rong straightened up abruptly, and immediately noticed a sharp pain in her feet. She took a deep breath and hurriedly lowered her head. She saw a long wound on her calf that had been bandaged, but it still hurt.

Li Rong looked around again, and found that this was a cave, the inside was not too big, the fire was in the center, and a small bed was made of hay next to him. Li Rong slept on it peacefully.

In a corner not far away, Su Rongqing hid in the dark. He had the dagger Li Rong carried when he fell off the cliff by his hand. He was only wearing a white single coat. He seemed to be covered with wounds. The white coat was stained red with blood that oozes out, and he looked very oozing.

He seemed to have fainted, his hair spread out, and his face was slightly sickly pale. He leaned against a protruding boulder, closed his eyes, and frowned. Li Rong did not wake up with such a big movement. he.

Li Rong dragged her injured leg to Su Rongqing’s side, bent down and took the dagger. As soon as she touched the dagger, Su Rongqing suddenly raised her hand and held her hand. Li Rong looked up coldly, and saw Su Rongqing panting and looking at her. , Showing a trace of pleading.

“Don’t worry,” Li Rong saw what he meant, pulled away his weak hand, took away the dagger, and said calmly, “I have something to ask you, and I won’t kill you for now.”

With that, she turned around with the dagger, and sat down by the fire again.

The sharp weapon gave her a sense of security. She held herself, holding a dagger, and sat blankly for a while.

I don’t know how long it was. When it rained outside, Su Rongqing finally spoke. He seemed to be affected by the wind and cold, and his voice was a little hoarse: “His Royal Highness wants to ask me what?”

Li Rong did not speak, she looked at the pulsating flame, and after a long time, she said, “I don’t know where to start.”

“His Royal Highness can leave it alone.”

Su Rongqing’s voice was very soft.

But they all knew that when Li Rong was about to ask him, everything was already in Li Rong’s heart.

Everything she did was just confirmation.

“In my last life, before I was dying, Pei Wenxuan came to see me. I smelled a scent on him. He was good at making perfumes. The scents he liked were all restrained and depressed. That scent should not belong to him, so I paid more attention to it. After that, I argued with him, and he promised to kill me. After he left, you gave me a bowl of medicine, I drank the poison, and you told me that it was Xiangmei, and I assumed it was Pei Wenxuan to support the second prince. Poison me, that sachet is the fragrance of Xiangmei, and the bowl of medicine is the inducement of Xiangmei.”

“Later, I came back together with Pei Wenxuan. We checked the situation at the time and I knew that the fragrance on Pei Wenxuan’s body was the sachet you gave him. You said that I am unwell. People from the outer room need to enter inside. Bring herbal sachets so as not to irritate me to cough. I will assume that you killed me.”

“You were not born again at the beginning. It doesn’t matter what the matter is. I didn’t go into it. Later, I learned that you were born again. I also asked you. You told me that you killed me. .”

“So,” Su Rongqing’s voice was weak, “His Royal Highness, what else would you like to ask today?”

“But today I feel that this matter is not that simple.”

When Su Rongqing heard this, she slowly raised her eyes to meet Li Rong’s gaze.

“Today, Pei Wenxuan used Xiangmeiren to poison Xie Chunhe, but after Xie Chunhe was poisoned, he did not immediately develop the poison. It can be seen that something is delaying Xie Chunhe’s poisoning. When I arrived, I found Xie Chunhe on his body. There is a strange fragrance, which is exactly the same as the fragrance I last smelled from Pei Wenxuan in my previous life.”

“In the beginning, I thought this was a fragrant beauty,” Li Rong recalled the details of today. “But then the young man took the sachet away, and Xie Chunhe immediately vomited blood. The young man dipped the sachet into the water and said It was an expert who pointed out that this is the antidote, and then asked Xie Chunhe to combine the ingredients in the sachet to drink. Therefore, I have reason to suspect,” Li Rong stopped her voice, she raised her head and looked into the dark. That young man, “What you gave Pei Wenxuan back then was not a poison, but an antidote to delay the onset of Xiangmei.”

“His Royal Highness is not good at perfumery, I am afraid that I smelled it wrong.”

Su Rongqing answered smoothly.

“You don’t even know what the smell I smell is like,” Li Rong couldn’t help laughing. “Are you so sure I smelled wrong?”

Su Rongqing did not answer, Li Rong looked at him: “Let’s talk, who killed me back then.”

“It’s me.” Su Rongqing admitted decisively.

Li Rong looked at him not getting in, she smiled: “Su Rongqing, I saved you.”

Su Rongqing’s eyelashes trembled slightly. Li Rong stood up, limped and walked to Su Rongqing. She bent down and looked down at him: “I am your master. I have raised you for 20 years. I have never asked you anything in my life. Today I beg you, tell me.”

There is water vapor in her eyes: “Who is it that killed me?”

“His Royal Highness…” Su Rongqing looked up at her, “It’s not important.”

“If it’s not important,” Li Rong laughed, “Go back and help Chuan’er take the lead with me.”

Su Rongqing’s eyes shrank suddenly. Li Rong observed the details of all his expressions. She squatted down and looked up at Su Rongqing: “Back then, didn’t you say that you should enter my princess mansion and tie the grass in the ring, and you will pay for your life and death? Su Rongqing, you Do you want to break the contract?”

“Do not……”

“Then you join me in assisting Chuaner to ascend the throne, so what?”

“His Royal Highness, Li Chuan, he killed my whole family.”

“But now he hasn’t done anything,” Li Rong chased after him, “Why didn’t he let him go?”

“You and I are both born again. We can avoid many things. Together, we will assist Chuan’er ascending the throne. You will be your Su Patriarch. In this life, you can be good, and I can be a matchmaker for you and let you marry a girl you like. With me here, Chuan’er will not do anything to the family. You don’t have to worry too much,” Li Rong said in a gentle voice, “Let’s make Chuan’er an emperor together, and then we can do well…”

“Not good!”

Su Rongqing finally couldn’t help it. He raised his hand on Li Rong’s shoulder: “His Royal Highness, don’t worry about it, you will go back and leave Huajing with Pei Wenxuan. A year later, I will take you back.”

“Come back to see Chuan’er ascend to the throne?” Li Rong asked expectantly.

Su Rongqing couldn’t control it anymore and shouted violently, “He can’t ascend the throne!”

After roaring this sentence, the two did not speak again.

Su Rongqing realized what he had said, he did not dare to raise his head, put his hands on Li Rong’s shoulders, lowered his head, and panted slightly.

Li Rong looked at Su Rongqing with compassion on her face.

“So what?” Li Rong’s voice was very calm, “The things in my previous life, do you think I care about it? In the court, it doesn’t matter who betrays me, I won’t be sad.”

“If you don’t tell me, I actually know it. Back then, I must have been Zhongxiangmeiren’s poison, otherwise you would not use Xiangmeiren’s antidote. After Su Ronghua’s death, only three people knew Xiangmei’s formula, you, Pei Wenxuan, And…” Li Rong felt that those two words were extremely difficult. She seemed to have spent all her life to say the two words, “Li Chuan.”

“If it’s not you, not Pei Wenxuan, who else is there?”

“Rong Qing, I am not a canary raised in a house. I can weather the wind and rain and see the sky and the sea. If you are still your Royal Highness, look up at me and tell me,” Li Rong looked at him , The voice was gentle, “Who killed me?”

Su Rongqing did not speak.

Li Rong patiently waited for him with the patter of rain outside.

After a long time, Su Rongqing finally spoke.

“Everyone.”

Li Rong was stunned. Su Rongqing’s hand holding her shoulder trembled slightly. He raised his eyes and looked at Li Rong: “It’s me, Li Chuan, and all of us, killing you together.”

There was a sudden thunder outside the cave, and Su Rongqing’s face was full of tears, but he seemed to finally let go of something, and smiled extremely happily.

“So your Highness, do you know why, even if I come back to life, I can’t let Li Chuan ascend the throne?”

“You know why, obviously I’m born again, I’m back, I’m fine, I’m still a man, but I want to watch you marry someone else?!”

“Don’t I want to fight? Don’t I dare to fight? Can’t I fight him?! Neither!”

“It’s just because,” Su Rongqing lowered his voice, and he looked at Li Rong with a smile, “I am not qualified.”

“People like Li Chuan and I are only worth living in hell.”

“I damn, Li Chuan,” Su Rongqing’s eyes looked like a cemetery overgrown with weeds, “nor should I live.”
