Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

It took more than half a day for the news of what happened last night to reach the palace this afternoon.

Soon afterwards, an imperial decree came from the palace, summoning Li Junhao back to the palace.

There wasn't much delay in time.

But when he saw Gu Xunwei's expression, Li Junze couldn't help but feel moved. Could it be that Gu Xunwei also had something about this incident in her dream?

Gu Xunwei seemed to have guessed his thoughts, nodded, and then said, "Yes, I remember this incident very clearly.

Because after this incident happened, it became a hot topic of conversation among people in the capital. "

Gu Xunwei gave a brief summary and then slowly told her many details, but most of them were just hearsay.

Wang Wenbin, the lord of Xiangyang City, was murdered in his own mansion, along with his wife and two children. In other words, the entire family of four was killed overnight.

The reason why Gu Xunwei was so impressed by this incident was because Wang Wenbin was the biggest customer of her father's incense shop in Xiangyang City.

Every year, Wang Wenbin's family would spend a large sum of money to purchase incense from Gu's incense shop, and he was also a person who loved to appreciate incense.

He has always been a kind person and managed the city of Xiangyang in an orderly manner. People lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the business environment was also very good.

Moreover, the most crucial thing is that Wang Wenbin was arranged in Xiangyang City, which is the fief of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he was also recommended by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so he was tacitly regarded as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's man.

After this happened, the then Crown Prince quickly arrived in Xiangyang City and personally supervised the case. Unfortunately, three months later, nothing was found.

Even the biggest suspect disappeared. They waited for more than a month but in the end they didn't find him.

What happened next was intriguing. The position of the mayor of Xiangyang City was given to a man named Sun, and it was said that this man named Sun was the grandfather of Prince An, and was highly recommended by Scholar Wang.

When Li Junhao heard this, he already had a rough guess in his mind. It was obvious that this was another conspiracy against him. Unfortunately, they targeted City Lord Wang's family.

This is the last thing he can tolerate.

I guess the fear in Gu Xunwei's tone just now was because she was thinking about something like this, so she was so nervous.

"I understand. I will be careful. Besides, this time, our situation is different from what you said. I must find out the mastermind behind this and seek justice for City Lord Wang and the others."

Li Junze rubbed Gu Xunwei's hand and spoke soothingly.

"Well, I know that saying this won't help you much, but it's good to have a direction to look for."

Gu Xunwei forced a smile, but she didn't feel relaxed at all.

In any case, if this matter is not handled well, it will have a huge impact on Li Junhao in the future.

"Thank you, Wei'er, for your reminder. I..." Li Junhao looked at Gu Xunwei, stood up, and pulled her up with him.

"After I come back this time, I should start the counterattack, so Wei'er, you have to protect yourselves well, understand?"

As Li Junhao spoke, he had already skillfully embraced Gu Xunwei in his arms.

"Counterattack?" Gu Xunwei opened her eyes wide in surprise.

"Yes, the groundwork has been almost done. City Lord Wang's incident is a good opportunity. I can't let them do whatever they want."

Li Junhao lowered his chin a little more, and was about to touch Gu Xunwei's delicate ears, but he still tried hard to suppress the urge to kiss her.

Gu Xunwei didn't notice his little thoughts at all, but she thought about it, and then said seriously, "Wangyu Tower is willing to fully support Your Highness in the counterattack. People, money, food, weapons, Wei'er will start to prepare now."

She didn't seem to be afraid at all. Instead, she felt that she was finally useful and Wangyu Tower was no longer just a decoration.

"Well, Wei'er is right. It is always better to prepare in advance. After all, if they really collude with King Yan, I am afraid that they will inevitably go to war."

When Li Junhao saw Gu Xunwei's expression, he did not discourage her enthusiasm, but instead agreed with what she said.

"It's just that Wei'er, you must remember that your safety comes first, understand?"

"Okay, I got it. Please rest assured, Your Highness." Gu Xunwei looked up and saw Li Junhao's handsome face close to her. Only then did she realize that they were already hugging each other.

"We are hugging each other, but Wei'er still calls me Your Highness?" Li Junhao curled his lips and chuckled.

Gu Xunwei immediately felt her cheeks burning. She struggled for a few times but to no avail, so she simply gave up and asked, "Then... then what should I call Your Highness?"

Her question made Li Junhao feel a little embarrassed.

Brother Hao? Brother Junhao? It all seemed a little too normal. "This is a good question. How about we both think about it carefully in the next few days, and then we can meet again after I return to Beijing in a few days?"

Gu Xunwei almost laughed out loud and nodded obediently.

When Li Junhao saw her smile, he knew that she was no longer as nervous as before. He spoke to her a few more words and left the capital overnight for Xiangyang City.

After Gu Xunwei returned to her Xunxiangyuan, she was still a little absent-minded. Thinking about Li Junhao's trip to Xiangyang City this time, she was still a little worried.

If those bad guys haven't left yet, will Your Highness be in danger?

"Miss, don't worry. Chief Sang and Xiao Fuzi went with His Highness. There shouldn't be any danger."

Bai Zhi seemed to have guessed Gu Xunwei's worry and quickly spoke to her.

"Although Chief Sang is not very good, his skills are still pretty good. He competed with my brother three times, and my brother lost more miserably each time."

After hearing what Bai Zhi said, Gu Xunwei couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that at the beginning, Chief Sang reserved his strength?"

"No, they had agreed before the competition that they must use their best..." Bai Zhi had already felt that what Gu Xunwei said made some sense halfway through her words, so she hesitated in the following words.

"Does Eunuch Xiao Fuzi also know Kung Fu? Isn't he a eunuch?" Gu Xunwei understood the meaning of what Bai Zhi said just now.

"This matter, Chief Sang didn't let me tell anyone else, but it doesn't matter, the young lady is not someone else, she is one of us, I will tell you everything, but you can't tell anyone else."

When Bai Zhi heard Gu Xunwei ask this, she could only describe it truthfully. Seeing Gu Xunwei nodded, she looked at Chenxiang who was standing beside her.
