Bending the villain big devil

As the night darkened, the sound of drumming outside the hunting ground had ceased.

In the clearing beside the woods of the hunting ground, several dark guards in black hid in the dark corner covered by tree shadows, kneeling and reporting what Rong Xu asked him to investigate half an hour ago.

Before the dinner was over, Rong Xu had secretly sent someone to check the places where people could hide near Mount Li.

Pang Chen is a reckless man who values ​​martial arts but not literature. He doesn't have much planning and thinking when doing things. Bao Buqi will pick this opportunity to make trouble.

Facts have proved that Pang Chen is a no-brainer. He was detained in the hunting ground like this, surrounded by Rong Xu's people, and almost all the important officials of the court were here. Even he himself was still held in Rong Xu's hands. Those scattered troops who had only practiced for a short time were ambushed at the foot of the mountain, and they regarded this trip as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, thinking of taking advantage of this opportunity to seize the imperial power in one fell swoop.

The most important thing is that Lishan is only a few miles away from the nearest garrison.

After hearing this, Rong Xu didn't seem surprised, and said casually: "The order is passed on, and anyone who sees Nanming's horses and horses should pretend that he didn't see them, just let them in, and wait until there are enough people in the hunting ground, and then start to block the other places behind. Ambushes..."

Since he brought Bai Sheng out to play, Rong Xu would not be unprepared. Long before he decided to come to the hunting ground early, the army to clean up the hunting ground had already been lurking around the forest. Guarded by troops, in fact, the heavily guarded soldiers have already surrounded the hunting ground like an iron cage, and it is impossible for even a fly to fly in.

Although the dark guard just found out that Rong Xu had arranged an army in the hunting ground, he didn't understand the reason, worried that his understanding might be wrong and ruin Rong Xu's affairs, so he asked cautiously, "How much is enough?"

"It seems that you can catch all these people in the hunting ground, and it doesn't matter if there are more, just let Pang Chenxin."

The dark guard was even more puzzled when he heard the words, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions, just kowtowed respectfully and nodded in agreement.

Rong Xu, however, seemed to be in a good mood, and said something rare. Although he had no expression on his face, he smiled a little happily, "King Nanming really deserves the reputation of a century-old hero of the Great Zhou. Gu Zhengchou There is no reason, but he solved the biggest worry for Gu..."

A few of them were ordered to go to work, and the other secret guards then reported some important matters in Beijing that needed Rong Xu's decision. The most important thing was how to deal with the rumors that His Majesty asked him to spread at that time.

However, before he could finish his sentence, the guards outside the tent suddenly came over to report, saying that Bai Sheng was more stubborn and wanted to go out to get some air, his attitude was very tough, and he didn't listen to persuasion very much, they didn't dare to stop him, so they could only let him go out up.

Rong Xu's expression changed slightly, he didn't listen to the important matters reported by the dark guard, and didn't even say a word, turned around and left in a hurry.

In a not-so-big tent near the west, a dimly lit candle was nearly half burned.

The tent was empty, except for a table, chairs and a tea set that looked a little crude, there was only a bed, and there was nothing else. Compared with the tent that Bai Sheng stayed in, it could be said to be a world of difference.

The new tables, chairs and beds in the hunting grounds are limited, so they must be kept close to the important ministers in the court first. In fact, there will be nothing good left when they are divided into the west. However, it was still Rong Xu who was in power at that time, and they did not dare to openly try to curry favor with them. Even if they picked and picked from the rest, the desks and chairs they sent were still dull and old. Even the corners are already showing signs of mottled damage.

Under the candlelight, a figure sat quietly at the table. He didn't seem to care much about the environment, stroking the white porcelain teacup without any engraved glaze with his fingers, and fell into silent thinking.

At this time, voices were heard from outside the tent, and after a while, a light footstep came in. The man at the table came back to his senses, and turned his head to look at it unhurriedly.

Bai Sheng was a little hesitant and afraid, and walked in through the opened curtain in small steps. After seeing Pang Li's face clearly, he let go of his worry a little bit, and walked in the direction of the candlelight at a faster pace.

Pang Li looked a little surprised, and stood up from the stool to meet him. His tall figure covered Bai Sheng's shadow at once, and his too thin face appeared a little sharper than usual under the shadow of the candlelight.

He arrived in front of Bai Sheng in three or two steps, and he raised a finger to his lips. Bai Sheng originally wanted to speak, but when he saw this, he quickly fell silent.

Pang Li walked to the edge of the curtain, raised his hand and opened a corner of the curtain, carefully saw that the faces of the guards outside were still the same group as before, and then pulled Bai Sheng into the tent.

Pang Li picked up the teapot and poured a glass of water for Bai Sheng. He frowned and lowered his voice, "Bai Sheng, why did you come here? Your Majesty, he asked you to come here?"

Bai Sheng quickly shook his head, although he didn't understand why, but Pang Li quickly seemed to have misunderstood something, and followed Pang Li to lower his voice, almost breathless, "No, no, I did it while His Majesty was not in the tent. Li just sneaked out to find you."

"It's very dangerous here, you shouldn't run around." Pang Li seemed to be thinking about something, his brows were tightly frowned, "There are so many guards guarding the hunting ground, how did you get here?"

Bai Sheng tilted his head, as if he didn't quite understand the danger, so he took it for granted, "The guards are only there to guard against the bad guys, as long as I don't cause trouble, those big guards won't arrest people randomly."

He originally wanted to say this to reassure Pang Li, but he didn't expect that Pang Li's expression became more serious after he finished speaking.

"Did the guards outside this tent let you in directly?"

His tent is full of people sent by Rong Xu, they never let up for a moment from morning to night, even the palace servants who are in charge of delivering food cannot enter, without Rong Xu's instruction, how could Bai Sheng come in?

If it was Rong Xu's instruction, why would he do this, but if he had any sincerity towards Bai Sheng, he would not let Bai Sheng out to run around at this time.

It's impossible for Rong Xu not to know how dangerous this place is with the current court situation. If he is not careful, Bai Sheng may lose his life here.

Bai Sheng lowered his head, and carefully took out the small jade tag that he had just stuffed under the collar of his clothes. He was afraid that someone would snatch his things again, so he stuffed them into his clothes and hid them all the time. He finally pulled them out from the inside come out.

Bai Sheng straightened out her chest, showed Pang Li the small jade tablet, and said proudly: "I took this small jade tablet and said that His Majesty asked me to come, so they let me in."

The guards at the gate didn't let Bai Sheng in at first, they told Bai Sheng that only His Majesty's order could let anyone in.

Bai Sheng thought for a while, and confidently pulled out the small jade token Rong Xu gave him.

Earlier, Bai Sheng threw the jade plaque back to Rong Xu in a fit of anger, and when Rong Xu personally hung it back around Bai Sheng's neck, he told him not to throw it away no matter how angry he was, because Rong Xu's surname was engraved on a small jade tablet, everyone in the palace knew it, as long as they wore it, no one would dare to bully Bai Sheng again, Bai Sheng firmly believed in it.

As expected, the guards knew each other. Not only did they let Bai Sheng in, but they also came to ask Bai Sheng if there was anything else they needed, and respectfully opened the door curtain for Bai Sheng.

Pang Li looked at the small jade tablet that Bai Sheng had mentioned, lightly stroked the teacup in his hand with his fingertips, and did not speak.

He has experienced some hard things, and naturally sees many things more clearly than ordinary people. From the perspective of the New Year's Eve banquet, Pang Li almost firmly believes that Rong Xu has feelings for Bai Sheng of.

Although he had no chance to meet His Majesty the Emperor before, his deeds were well known even in remote places like Nanming.Thoughtful and full of strategies, Pang Li had heard many other stories about killing the rebellious Changyang King with his own hands and leading his own soldiers to bloodbath Saibei. Not adulterated, maybe even embellished...

Such a king has a strong desire to dominate from the bottom of his heart, and he will never allow anyone to control him.

But that night, Pang Li also discovered that Bai Sheng held an unusual position in Rong Xu's heart. Even though Rong Xu's words were cold and heartless, his behavior was not like that at all.

Bai Sheng's fainting obviously made him a little emotionally anxious. He said that he would give Bai Sheng away, but when he said those words, his eyes could not be concealed. When Sheng left, his steps were very fast, but his arms were raised steadily...

There are many other things that Pang Li could notice, but what Pang Li was most sure of was that from the beginning to the end, Rong Xu's gaze stayed on the fainted Bai Sheng almost all the time.

He couldn't see so many people present, it seemed that he only had Bai Sheng in his eyes...

If a person's eyes are completely fixed on another person, then that person is not just imprinted in his eyes. Pang Li has experienced that process himself, and no one knows it better than him.

That's why Pang Li said that sentence at the end, a lesson from the past.

That is the lesson learned by Pang Li himself. It is very difficult for nobles like them to face up to their own sincerity. They think they have everything and everything is in their pockets. In fact, they have nothing. Only after losing the most precious thing did I think of regretting it.

But at that time, regrets are already useless...

Rong Xu may have been moved by Bai Sheng, but he didn't know it. Pang Li used to think so, but now, he is not as sure as before...

Pang Liwu thought about it for a while, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that Bai Sheng had been holding the teacup, looking at him suspiciously with wide open eyes, while sipping tea like a kitten drinking water.

The full cup of water in the teacup had already been emptied, but Bai Sheng was still holding it to his lips stupidly, not knowing what he was drinking.

Pang Li was almost amused. He felt that Bai Sheng was really cute, and his nervousness eased a lot. He raised his hand to take the empty water glass in Bai Sheng's hand, and picked up the teapot to refill him a full glass.

"Come here so late, did you encounter any difficulties?"

Hearing this, Bai Sheng turned his gaze back from the small teacup, sat up obediently, put his hands on his knees, nodded first, then raised his head, and tried to pretend to be serious: "I remember you I said it once, because you did something wrong, my sister was angry, and she was unwilling to forgive you..."

The smile on the corners of Pang Li's lips faded a lot, he forced a smile, his brows and eyes slightly closed, he paused, and replied in a low voice: "Yes."

Bai Sheng was stunned for a moment, he had planned what he was going to say early in the morning, but he didn't expect that saying it would make Pang Li so sad.

Bai Sheng immediately felt guilty, and hurriedly stammered to make amends, "I didn't mean that... I just said, I can help you, help you persuade my sister..."

"It's just..." Bai Sheng was very embarrassed, let alone what he wanted to say, "Actually, I can't help you much, but, but, I..."

Bai Sheng's thoughts are too easy to understand, and he won't hide his thoughts. Pang Li was just distracted by the word "sister" in his words, but listening to him now, he can already understand Bai Sheng's intentions.

"Don't worry, if there is any difficulty, just tell me..."

He once lost Bai Yan, but now he has met Bai Yan's favorite younger brother, whether it's because of wanting to atone for his crimes or to please his future brother-in-law, he naturally has to help her protect his younger brother.

What's more, in fact, it should be Pang Li who really asks for help...

"If you want, just tell me where your home is. I've been looking for her. For the rest, I don't need you to do anything for me."

Bai Sheng just nodded, but he didn't tell Pang Li where his fox den was. He had only met Pang Li once, and didn't know much about Pang Li. Except for Rong Xu, he didn't dare to tell anyone Poke your own fox den out.

Pang Li knew what he was thinking when he saw his appearance, and smiled gently, "Don't tell me now, this is not a condition, you are her brother, even if you don't want to tell me, I will help you, don't worry, You can say whatever you want, no matter how difficult it is, I will try my best to help you."

When he said that, Bai Sheng felt even more guilty. He hesitated for a while before saying what he wanted to say the most at the beginning.

Bai Sheng clenched his hands into balls, pinned his fingers on the tree pattern on the wooden table, and said in a low voice: "I, I heard people say that the court is in turmoil recently, the palace is very dangerous, and there are many bad people, I heard Said, I heard that you are the son of Prince Nanming, very powerful, can you help me..."

In fact, there are many things in this sentence that Bai Sheng doesn't understand, such as the turmoil in the court, and the prince of Nanming, he doesn't quite understand what it means. Overheard from somewhere, he was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he lacked confidence.

However, he had thought about it several times in his heart, and at least he was right.

Pang Li handed the teacup to Bai Sheng's hand, and comforted him: "Don't worry, there is a way, drink some water first, give me time to think..."

This is indeed a tricky question. Although Pang Li is not serious about what big things Pang Chen can accomplish, the palace has been really not peaceful recently. There are too many people who want to seize this opportunity to use maneuvers to disrupt the situation. Although Rong Xu is powerful, but Looking at today's situation, I don't know if he wants to protect Bai Sheng. It's really not a good place for Bai Sheng to stay in Pingqing Palace.

Pang Li frowned, thought for a long time, and finally came up with the most stable method in comparison, "I know there is a path in the hunting ground, and the path leads to a river at the foot of the mountain. The river will be able to return to the edge of the city wall. I still have three trusted confidants. I will let them take you down the mountain. When you enter the city, they will find a safe place to hide you. I will send you back when the limelight passes. Home."

The more Bai Sheng listened, the more confused he became, his expression was a little confused, "Going down the mountain...going home?"

Pang Li thought he was afraid, and comforted him softly, "Don't worry, although the waterway is difficult, the path is steep and relatively hard to hide people. Those people are proficient in water and will send you out safely."

Not only was Bai Sheng not relieved, but even more frightened. He stood up suddenly, and jumped back like a little rabbit, far away from Pang Li. His eyes widened and his face turned red, "I No, don't want you to send me down the mountain, you are indeed a bad person, you want to send me away, and then go to hurt my majesty, bad person! I will never tell you where my sister is!"

Pang Li was stunned, he just never imagined that Bai Sheng would react like this when he heard this suggestion.
