Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

Gu Xunwei looked at Li Junhao and knew that he had eaten all kinds of delicious food in the East Palace on a daily basis, and today he was just trying to make it up to her.

As the crown prince, he was able to think of these things carefully for her, which touched her heart.

"Brother Xin, do you want to confirm that person's true identity? Or which mansion he is from?" Gu Xunwei asked with a smile.

"Although there are many guesses, it is still better to verify it personally. Does Wei'er have any good ideas?"

"Well, come here, I'll tell you..." After saying that, Gu Xunwei leaned over to Li Junhao's ear and whispered something.

Li Junhao smiled and said, "Weier still has a way."

After he finished speaking, he clapped his hands twice toward the door, and two more people immediately appeared in the room.

It should be Li Junhao's secret guard.

Li Junhao told them about Gu Xunwei's idea. The two nodded and immediately went out to make arrangements.

Gu Xunwei and Li Junhao came to the window again and looked at the person who was following Li Junhao.

After a while, a man who was dressed very similar to Li Junhao came out from the door of Louwailou. The man happened to see him and immediately stood up and wanted to follow him.

However, I didn't expect that because I was walking too fast, I bumped into someone passing by.

The person he bumped into stood up cursing and grabbed the man who kept apologizing to him but was thinking about leaving.

Then the two of them started to pull each other, and the man was obviously perfunctory. Seeing that the person he wanted to follow took two people and hid in the crowd, he couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment.

I don't know what the two of them said to each other afterwards, and the person he bumped into finally calmed down, but left cursing.

The man watched Li Junhao leave and chased him for a distance in the direction he walked, but found that he could not even see his shadow. There were bustling crowds of people everywhere because the fire dragon and lion dance troupe had arrived.

Apparently, he could no longer find Li Junhao. The man slapped his thigh in disappointment, then turned around and hurriedly walked in another direction.

However, what he did not realize was that not far behind him, there was a person following him closely and walking away.

Li Junhao stared at the people below carefully and found that apart from that person, no one else seemed to be behaving strangely. Only then did he feel relieved.

"Let's go, I'll take you to a good place." Gu Xunwei put on a veil with a smile, and handed Li Junhao a silver mask that half covered his face.

Li Junhao smiled helplessly. It turned out that Gu Xunwei had already prepared these items, and was obviously fully prepared for this Mid-Autumn appointment.

So he took the mask and put it on his face, and at the same time took off his outer robe and changed into a light coat.

When passing by the waiter outside, Li Junhao whispered to him, "The dishes we ordered just now will be served later."

Gu Xunwei held his hand, and as they walked out of Louwailou, she still worriedly confirmed again, "Brother Xin, there should be a secret guard following you, right?"

She had arranged for Chenxiang to go find Manager Bai, and Bai Zhi and Chief Sang were not at home. Gu Xunwei was a little worried that if the two of them went out like this, she would be guilty if something unexpected happened.

"Don't worry, I have a lot of secret guards, much more than you think." Li Junhao said with a smile.

After hearing this, Gu Xunwei took him to the Hutuo River in the north of the city with peace of mind.

The place they arrived at was a section of the river where the water flowed slowly, and quite a few people had already gathered there.

Not far away there was a vendor selling river lanterns, and around him there were a few down-and-out scholars who helped everyone write their names and wishes on the river lanterns.

This is a place for ordinary people to pray, so Li Junhao has never been to such a place in all his years in the capital.

Two years ago, Gu Xunwei's father took her to the capital to inspect incense shops. It happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival. The place they came to was a place where the living prayed for the dead.

Li Junhao lowered his head to look at Gu Xunwei and understood her good intentions. She wanted him to pray for her mother and brother, and he was deeply moved.

So he walked straight to the vendor selling lanterns, picked out a lotus lantern that his mother loved most back then, and personally wrote on it his thoughts and feelings for his mother and brother.

Gu Xunwei also wrote a lantern, but she chose a rabbit lantern whose red eyes looked lifelike.

She thought about it and finally could only pray for her grandparents.

After writing, the two smiled at each other, walked to the river together, and put the lit lanterns into the slowly flowing river.

At this time, there were already hundreds of river lanterns in the river, floating slowly downstream along the water flow.

Li Junhao's expression was very solemn. The closer he got to this point, the more he missed his mother.

Gu Xunwei looked at his expression, accompanied him silently, and said nothing more.

By the time the two returned to Louwailou, an hour had passed.

The two of them went out and not only saw the hustle and bustle of the shopping street, but also saw the wonderful life of the people in the capital. They both bought a lot of small things.

When he entered the private room, the secret guard was already waiting inside and reported to Li Junhao about the situation of following the man.

As expected, the man finally hurried back to the Bachelor's Mansion.

"It seems that my guess was correct. They are indeed their people. I am afraid that they have already investigated all my actions outside the palace."

Li Junhao chuckled and then spoke slowly.

Gu Xunwei thought of what Li Junhao had mentioned to her last time, that he would take action against them after returning to Beijing, and she couldn't help but feel worried.

It’s not that he was worried that Li Junhao would fail, but he was worried that such a struggle would end up being a lose-lose situation, with someone benefiting from it.

If Li Junhao and Li Junze really started fighting openly, the entire country's court would surely be in chaos.

"Wei'er, don't worry, I know what's going on and will try my best to minimize the impact of the incident." Li Junhao seemed to have guessed Gu Xunwei's worries, so he spoke to comfort her.

Gu Xunwei nodded, and the two of them began to eat. Halfway through the meal, Sang Mo and Bai Zhi came back from outside.

The two were relatively cautious and wore masks, but they were a pair of couple masks, a male rabbit and a female rabbit.

After entering the private room, both of them took off their masks. Sang Mo whispered to Li Junhao, "Your Highness, the Li Mansion seems to be in some trouble. We just returned to the mansion and found several suspicious people around, who seemed to be monitoring the Li Mansion."
