"Whoever wants the prince to die the most will be suspicious." Li Yuyan said softly, holding her delicate little hand and walking into the mountain.

Wei Bingyan panted slightly, "Fourth Prince?"

"He is the most suspicious one, but there are many people in the capital who want the prince dead." Li Yuyan said, turning around and looking at her. He saw a little blush on her face, and he felt a little annoyed about it.

"You and Second Brother also want him dead, so are you also a suspect?" Wei Bingyan tilted her head and said teasingly.

Li Yuyan smiled slightly, but suddenly stopped his brisk steps and looked down at the hard stone under his feet.

"What's wrong?" Wei Bingyan asked in a low voice after noticing his abnormality.

"This is basalt!" Li Yuyan picked up the hard stone that was half the size of a fist. The basalt was originally silver in color, but gradually turned black because of the violent explosion.

Wei Bingyan was stunned for a moment and asked curiously, "Why is there basalt here?"

"See if there is anything else nearby." Li Yuyan frowned slightly, with a hint of calmness and seriousness in his eyes.

But they searched for a long time, from the mountainside to the peak, and continued until the red sun slowly set in the west, but they could not find any other clues. All of them were washed away by the torrential rain.

"I'll go and take a look!" Li Yuyan pointed to the ridge where the collapse had occurred. If it was really man-made, there must be a problem there, and he had to go and look for it himself.

"It's too dangerous!" Wei Bingyan pulled his arm, "How are you going to get down? We just experienced a landslide not long ago. The hard rock must be unstable. What if it collapses again?"

Li Yuyan gently wiped away the dense sweat on her head and said, "I will be careful."

Wei Bingyan grabbed his sleeve, really worried about watching him go down like that.

"Relax, I haven't married you yet, how can I be willing to let an accident happen like that?" Li Yuyan said with a smile.

"You better be careful!" Wei Bingyan glared at him and spoke nervously.

Li Yuyan pinched her childish face slightly, and carefully took advantage of the wind to go down to the landslide site.

Wei Bingyan's heart was in her throat when she saw him standing on the top of the mountain, especially when she saw that the rocks where he was standing were sparse and loose, and many hard rocks had slipped down due to his arrival. She was worried that he would fall down if he didn't stand well.

Taking advantage of the setting sun, Li Yuyan walked around the ridge and finally found what he was looking for.

"How is it?" Wei Bingyan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Li Yuyan coming back safely.

Li Yuyan took out the soil that was completely wrapped in a towel from his arms and asked, "Can you see anything?"

Wei Bingyan looked at the dark soil, bent down and sniffed it, smelling the smell of industrial sulfur and high-quality coke. He opened his eyes wide in shock, "It's dynamite!"

"The only people in the entire Tang Dynasty who can freely use explosives are the army." Li Yuyan said with a gloomy smile, "And there is only one person who can take out so much explosives from the army to blow up the mountain."

"General Linghu!" Wei Bingyan said in disbelief. The landslide was really man-made. "In order to deal with the prince, they actually ignored everything else."

"They will stop at nothing to achieve their goals. Is there anything they can't do?" Li Yuyan smiled grimly, but his mood improved in the end as he searched for clues.

Wei Bingyan saw that although his tone was still ruthless, the gloom between his brows had faded a lot, and she couldn't help but feel a little more cheerful. "So, what are you going to do, Master Li?"

Li Yuyan's cold eyes softened, and she said with a smile, "It's not about what I plan to do, but what others plan to do. After I return to the capital, I only need to think about when to marry you."

He just needs to find all the evidence and hand it over to his father, and someone will deal with the prince. I think His Majesty will not be able to be cruel to the prince this time.

There are many people who want to deal with the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince, so let them fight each other. I believe that father will do a very good job.

Wei Bingyan didn't expect that he was still thinking about getting married at this time, and she spat in displeasure, "Besides this, you have nothing else to think about. The handsome and handsome Mr. Li in front of everyone turns out to be a lecherous playboy behind the scenes. Isn't it embarrassing?"

After Li Yuyan collected the dark soil, he held her in his arms, hid his face in the crook of her neck, took a long breath, and smelled her fragrant body breath. "Don't come looking for me like this again. Believe me, I will definitely come back to you."

"I'm very worried." She hugged his waist and sighed.

"Silly girl!" He sighed hoarsely and kissed her on the face with his hot lips.

Wei Bingyan's penetrating eyes revealed a blooming smile. She suddenly opened her mouth and bit his lips. "Let's go back quickly. If we don't get down the mountain, it will be night."

Li Yuyan's clear eyes suddenly dimmed. Looking at her smiling mouth, he suddenly thought of the day when he reached into her skirt and accidentally touched her tender and smooth skin. His breathing became heavy and dull, and he bent his head and kissed her lips deeply and affectionately.

He hoped more and more that this time when she went back, she would ask the old emperor to issue an edict to grant them marriage no matter what. Otherwise, if he was unhappy, he would make the old man sad too.

His lips were extremely hot, and his tongue urgently opened her mouth, continuously absorbing her sweetness as if he had been waiting for a long time. Wei Bingyan rarely responded to his kiss spontaneously and took his breath into her own, feeling his earnestness for her.

"Uh..." His kiss fell on her ear, and his tongue slowly probed into her ear hole and licked it gently. The tingling sensation spread throughout her body in an instant. Wei Bingyan tilted her head and tried to push him away.

“No…no…” Wei Bingyan begged for forgiveness in a fragmented voice, “We still have to go down the mountain.”

Li Yuyan's body was stiff, and he felt as if he had recovered from the passion, but he still couldn't help but hold her cheek, his voice a little hoarse, "Junior Sister, I can't bear it anymore."

Wei Bingyan's face was flushed with red clouds, and she pushed him away vigorously, "Hurry... hurry back."

On the way back to the capital, Li Yuyan was obviously in a much better mood. He stood guard and admired the scenery on the road, looking free and easy. He just thought that he would feel more satisfied if it were only him and his junior sister in the carriage.

Everyone's emotions towards Li Yuyan kept changing. Everyone in the carriage was confident. Wang Tianbao knew that the landslide was man-made, and that someone had used explosives that only the military could use at full capacity, which made him even more angry.

Those princes are fucking stupid pigs, self-centered and cold-hearted. They treat other people's lives as ants just for their own desires, and kill them whenever they want without any remorse.

Originally they just wanted to deal with the crown prince, but after this incident, Li Yuyan and Wang Tianbao had an unspoken understanding that they wanted the fourth prince to pay the price as well!

Wei Bingyan was happy to see that Li Yuyan's mood was beginning to improve. However, she felt a little unreal when she thought that His Majesty would really issue an edict to grant the marriage when she returned.

She really couldn't have imagined that she would be with Li Yuyan in this life.

Soon, they returned to the capital. Wang Tianbao's headache became more and more severe. At this time, there was no rain, but his condition still did not improve. Guan Mengxin was very worried. After arriving in the capital, she immediately took Wang Tianbao to find Mrs. Li.

Wei Bingyan had to go back and report to Old Master Wei that she was safe, while Li Yuyan had to go to the palace to report.

The old man seemed to have known that Wei Bingyan would come back today, and he had been waiting for her leisurely in the house, drinking tea.

"Grandpa." Wei Bingyan bowed, sat down beside him, took the hot water bottle from Luzhi's hand, and added water to the old man.

"Have you found someone?" The old man looked at her with amusement.

Wei Bingyan was slightly embarrassed and nodded shyly. Thinking about how nervous she was that day and at a loss as to what to do, and how she had to go find Li Yuyan, she felt that she had lost the calmness and composure that a lady should have.

But who can really be calm?

"Have you seen the prince?" the old man asked again. He had heard from others before that the prince's whereabouts were unknown, but recently there was news from Huaixi that the prince had reappeared with grains.

Wei Bingyan told him everything that happened along the way, "...If that's the case, Third Senior Brother has already gone to the palace to report back. I think he will tell His Majesty about these things."

The old man sighed almost imperceptibly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, "The prince was harmed by the Li family."

If it weren't for the Li family's incredible power and the fact that they felt they could use the crown prince to control Your Majesty and the entire Tang Dynasty, how could Your Majesty regard the Li family and the crown prince as thorns in your side, and how could the crown prince be spoiled to have such a temperament and vision? Your Majesty himself would probably be very disappointed.

What could be more frustrating than having his sons secretly destroy his girlfriend?

But it happened that he was the one who cultivated this unhappiness.

"The matter of the explosives... may not necessarily implicate the Linghu family and the Fourth Prince. If His Majesty wants to take this opportunity to deal with the Li family, he will definitely not touch the Linghu family. Your Third Senior Brother should be clear about this." Old Master Wei said.

“But the prince… will His Majesty really be as hard-hearted as a rock and abolish him this time?” Wei Bingyan asked softly.

"We'll have to wait and see. Will the prince go directly to Your Majesty and confess, or will he rely on the Li family to arrange things for him?" the old man said calmly.

Given the Crown Prince's weak character, he certainly doesn't have the courage to come to Your Majesty and confess.

"What was your third senior brother's reaction when he saw the Sixth Prince?" Old Master Wei suddenly mentioned the Sixth Prince.

Wei Bingyan never mentioned that they happened to run into the Sixth Prince, but the old man could actually guess it? "He didn't say it, and I didn't ask."

The wrinkles under the old man's eyelids stretched slightly, and I don't know what he was thinking about, but he raised his lips and smiled.
