Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

"Don't worry, Miss Gu. His Highness is waiting for us five miles away from here."

Because it was dark, Sang Mo couldn't see the expression on Gu Xunwei's face clearly, but he could clearly hear Gu Xunwei let out a long sigh of relief.

"Let's leave now. I'll take you away." Sang Mo said.

Gu Xunwei shook her head and pointed to the position of the soldier just now. "If we don't deal with this soldier and the guards guarding me, we will be discovered soon."

Sang Mo nodded and made a gesture towards the figure on the tree. Immediately, three shadows rushed over there.

Gu Xunwei was pulled by Sang Mo and quickly disappeared into the dense jungle.

The whole night was surprisingly peaceful, as if nothing had happened. The two people behind him had been killed very neatly and were well hidden.

When Gu Xunwei was brought all the way to Li Junhao by Sang Mo, Li Junhao had already seen her figure. He didn't care about the others present and ran over and hugged Gu Xunwei tightly in his arms.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my fault that I didn't take good care of you, I'm sorry..." He kept apologizing in Gu Xunwei's ear.

Gu Xunwei's tears flowed out like a tide, she couldn't utter a word, but her heart was extremely at peace.

She really thought that she would never see Li Junhao again, and she planned to escape with the intention of dying, but now, she was in Li Junhao's warm embrace, and she felt extremely satisfied.

After a long while, Gu Xunwei choked up and said, "Don't blame Your Highness. It's all my fault that I fell into their trap."

"Well, Your Highness, Miss Gu, let's go back quickly. We have a tough battle tomorrow." Yan Nangui knew that his words were a bit of a spoiler, but he still had to remind them.

It's already late at night. A lack of rest will affect your performance tomorrow.

Li Junhao nodded. They were in a hurry this time and were traveling at night, so there was no carriage available. So he let Gu Xunwei sit on his horse, and he carefully sat behind her.

It is early winter now, and the cold night makes Gu Xunwei shiver a little. Li Junhao considerately wraps her cold body tightly with his cloak.

"Let's go, let's go back to the mansion first."

After saying that, they rushed towards the capital.

Gu Xunwei was in Li Junhao's arms, with only her head exposed, talking to Li Junhao in a disjointed manner.

The place chosen by Prince Yan and his men for stationing is half a day's journey from the capital, and they will be delayed quite a bit of time on the road tonight.

Gu Xunwei suddenly remembered something and said, "I'll tell His Highness a few addresses. After His Highness returns to Beijing, he will arrange for people to go and arrest them. Many of those people who entered Beijing in advance are at these locations."

She secretly memorized these names when she overheard Wang Zhuo making plans with those people in that shabby teahouse.

I hope it's not too late. We should capture as many of the powerful forces in the city as possible. This way the losses in the city will be much less.

Li Junhao said to Yan Nangui and Sang Mo, "Have you memorized these addresses? Unite with the Jingji Army, quickly deploy surveillance, and arrest them all."

Yan Nangui glanced at Sang Mo, and they both nodded. However, Sang Mo said with some concern, "Your Highness, there is still a long way to go back to the capital. How about I stay here to protect you?"

Li Junhao glanced at Gu Xunwei, holding her hands tighter in his cloak, and then refused.

"No need, I have secret guards, just rest assured."

Sang Mo thought about it and realized that although His Highness's secret guard skills were still a little behind his own, they were still pretty good. So he nodded and said to Gu Xunwei,

"Miss Gu, rest assured. I will go to the Gu Mansion as soon as I finish my work to inform your family of the situation."

Gu Xunwei smiled and nodded to him, and said, "Thank you, Chief Sang. This time it's all thanks to you."

Li Junhao couldn't help feeling jealous after hearing this. He should have gone to save Gu Xunwei himself, but in the end, Sang Mo stole the credit.

After the two of them left, Li Junhao said, "Sang Mo saved you this time, which is considered a great achievement. How do you plan to reward him?"

When Gu Xunwei heard what Li Junhao said, she knew that it was what she had said just now that irritated Li Junhao, and he was jealous of her and Sang Mo.

Isn't it said that the former Crown Prince is broad-minded and magnanimous? Why is he angry about such a thing today?

However, she did not answer his question directly, but smiled and explained, "Your Highness, I know that you are the one who has made the greatest contribution. If you had not considered the overall situation, you would have rescued me."

"Well, that's more like it." Li Junhao was easily pleased by this sentence and hugged the person in his arms tighter. "I'm so happy that you can come back. After you return to Beijing, don't live in Gu Mansion for the time being. How about living in... Dali Temple?"

Gu Xunwei knew that Li Junhao was worried that they would continue to choose to attack him, so he said,

"Wang Zhuo and Li Junze don't know the details of our cooperation. I told them that my father saved you in the past, so he chose to cooperate with the Gu family in the incense shop."

As soon as she said this, Li Junhao felt relieved. "That's good. After returning to Beijing, move the entire Gu family to the Dali Temple. Wait until this matter is settled before going back."

Gu Xunwei knew that he cared about her, and she was touched. She reached out and grabbed the other's warm hand, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Your Highness."

They were full of love, talking and laughing all the way back to the capital, but when the day was about to dawn, a riot broke out in the Yanbei military camp early in the morning.

When Li Xingxian was awakened by Liu Qingfeng, he subconsciously glanced outside the door. It was just getting light, probably around the end of the Yin hour.

"What happened?" he asked somewhat unhappily.

We have to take action today. I slept late last night. It is so important to have a good sleep, but I was disturbed like this.

"Your Highness Prince Yan, it's bad. More than half of the soldiers have problems." Liu Qingfeng said with a livid face and lingering fear.

What he said was conservative. Almost 60 to 70 percent of the soldiers had very serious problems.

Li Xingxian heard him speaking hesitantly and immediately realized that something unexpected must have happened. He casually put on a cloak and walked out of the tent.

There were already seven leaders waiting outside. When they saw Li Xingxian coming out, they all walked up with panic on their faces.
