Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

Thinking of this, a sinister look appeared in Li Junze's eyes again. If he returned to Beijing and finished this matter, he would definitely help Si'er to deal with that Gu Xunwei.

Gu Xunwei, who was being remembered by Li Junze, naturally didn't know about it. She was still concentrating on making incense. It was almost midnight when she came out of the incense-making room tiredly.

Today was a bit unlucky. A new fragrance that I developed for over a month failed.

After coming out, as expected, Li Junhao and Sang Mo were waiting for her in her room.

"Your Highness, you...is there something going on?" When Gu Xunwei saw the expression on Sang Mo's face, she knew that he must have come to see her for something tonight.

After all, we just met this afternoon.

"Well, Prince An will be entering the capital tomorrow. Something should happen tonight, so I came here to share the progress with you."

Li Junhao said with a smile, and poured Gu Xunwei some hot tea to moisten her throat.

Apart from making incense every day, I basically never go out, and it is really hard work.

Gu Xunwei washed her hands with the hot water that Bai Zhi brought, and asked with interest, "Did Your Highness hear any rumors?"

She always felt that although Li Junhao had no idea about that position, he was very well-informed about a lot of information, which meant that he should have his own spies in many mansions.

Or maybe he has his own spies in Prince An's mansion.

Li Junhao just smiled without saying anything and asked Sang Mo to take out the chessboard and chess pieces he had brought.

It turned out to be the chess pieces made of ivory and rhinoceros horn that Concubine Shu had sent him.

"Keep it secret for now. Come, let's play chess while waiting for news." Li Junhao said to Gu Xunwei with a smile.

Baizhi and Chenxiang had already prepared several plates of snacks in case they got hungry later.

Gu Xunwei had no choice but to sit down. She was no match for the Crown Prince when playing chess. She was concentrating on her calculations, but the opponent was playing jokes on her and winning at the same time.

However, she always felt that His Highness gave her face and would never win by much each time.

"You seem to be in a bad mood today, but is the incense making not going well?" Li Junhao asked casually while placing the chessboard.

"Yeah, yes." Gu Xunwei felt that she had controlled her emotions very well, but she didn't expect the other party to find out so quickly.

"I originally planned to make a fragrance that would change its scent according to a person's body temperature and time, but unfortunately, it failed."

Gu Xunwei did not hide it either. After all, Wangyu Tower belonged to both of them, and Li Junhao could also understand his development process.

"Don't worry too much. Wangyulou is doing very well now. The several fragrances we have already produced have been well received by so many people. You have done a great job."

Li Junhao praised sincerely. What he said was the truth. At least Gu Xunwei ran Wangyu Tower much better than he had originally imagined.

"Your Highness, thank you for your praise. Wangyu Tower has achieved its current success thanks to your help."

Gu Xunwei smiled and returned the praise to Li Junhao.

Sang Mo couldn't bear to listen any longer, so he quickly stopped the two of them, "You two are so familiar with each other, so you don't have to be so polite, right?"

The two smiled at each other, and before they could say anything, Bai Zhi had already said for them, "What do you know? This is that, that... treat each other with respect, right, miss?"

With a "puchi" sound, Gu Xunwei laughed first, while Li Junhao's ears turned red.

"Bai Zhi, this idiom is not used like this." After Gu Xunwei finished speaking, she glanced at Li Junhao and noticed his embarrassment. She had no way to explain in detail, so she could only hold back her laughter and looked at Sang Mo.

"Yes, Miss Gu is right. Come on, let's go out and I will explain to you the usage of this idiom." Sang Mo quickly responded and took Bai Zhi out of the room.

Chen Xiang warned from behind, "Don't go too far... don't make too much noise..."

Her worries were not unfounded, because a little girl who was sweeping the backyard once told her privately that she seemed to have heard a man's voice near Xunxiangyuan.

The person whose voice could be heard by the little maid must be Sang Mo.

Gu Xunwei took the chess basket that Li Junhao handed to her. It was a white piece, which meant that she could move first.

"Is there going to be a big fuss when His Royal Highness Prince An hasn't returned to the capital yet?" Gu Xunwei said as she made her move.

"He has long disliked Yan Nangui, and this is just a prelude."

"What, he wants to attack Lord Yan? But what does this matter have to do with Lord Yan?" Gu Xunwei was a little surprised. She really didn't expect this.

"Up to now, all the evidence against him is in the hands of the Dali Temple, but Yan Nangui just holds on to it and does not report anything. Isn't this the reason why Prince An wants to take action against him?"

Li Junze smiled and patiently explained to Gu Xunwei. Based on his understanding of Li Junze, if Wang Zhuo hadn't been holding him back, he would have already had feelings for Yan Nangui.

By getting rid of Yan Nangui, they can then arrange their own people.

By then, these things can be wiped out all at once.

After listening to this, Gu Xunwei finally understood. The fights between these masters were indeed different from the minor fights between her and Gu Qiongsi. In both cases, people could die at any time. She felt a little frightened.

"Has Lord Yan made any preparations?" Gu Xunwei was still a little worried. Although she understood the reliability of their work, she was still worried.

Although Li Junhao still had a smile on his face, he was a little jealous in his heart. Why did you care so much about Yan Nangui? You didn't even show any concern for such a great prince like him.

Sure enough, people with broad minds can also be narrow-minded and jealous.

Li Junhao reached out and grabbed Gu Xunwei's hand on the table, holding it in his left hand and rubbing it, "Don't worry, Wei'er, I've made all the necessary preparations to ensure that they won't be able to return."

"Oh," Gu Xunwei also realized that she seemed to be questioning the Crown Prince's ability. Her hand was held by the other party again, so her face turned red and she lowered her head embarrassedly.

When Li Junhao saw her like this, his heart couldn't help but beat fast. He really wanted to pull her tightly into his arms, but he was afraid that Gu Xunwei would think he was too frivolous.

Now they have held hands and hugged each other, and Gu Xunwei also understands his feelings and is willing to be with him. With this, he is already very content.

In the future, all good things will be waiting for them, so he is not in a hurry.

It would be strange if he wasn't anxious. He was extremely anxious and wished he could get out of the palace affairs as soon as possible and win the beauty as soon as possible.
