She and Gu Yuan had already agreed to go horse racing in Cuiwei Mountain. After leaving the city, her carriage galloped all the way to the northwest, with Hongyu following beside the carriage like a shadow.

After Grain Rain, the weather becomes warmer day by day, the sun shines brightly, it is a nice and peaceful time.

In the suburbs, peach and apricot trees are blooming, the hills are covered with green grass, and the whole land is full of vitality. In addition to pedestrians on the official road, there are also many people who come out to ride horses and enjoy the spring scenery, and their horses are galloping in the spring breeze.

When we first left the city, there were still quite a few pedestrians on the official road. Gradually, as we got farther away from the capital, there were fewer and fewer people on the road. Occasionally, we could see farmers and children busying around on the ridges of the fields on both sides.

After driving for another seven or eight miles, the surroundings became increasingly desolate, and there were no longer any people on the road.

The driver held the reins in one hand and the whip in the other, and drove quickly on the deserted country road.

"drive!"

The driver whipped and shouted, driving the carriage to turn right, but he saw a huge tree broken in half lying in the middle of the road not far ahead, blocking the way ahead.

This could cause the cart to overturn! The driver was startled and quickly tightened the reins, letting out a sigh.

The carriage stopped only about two meters away from the tree blocking the road. The black horse pulling the carriage was breathing out white air and neighing continuously. The coachman wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeves in fear.

The carriage had just stopped when there was a sudden commotion in front and behind. Two groups of people rushed out from the woods on the side of the road with great momentum, blocking the front and back of the carriage, forming a pincer attack.

The driver frowned and looked at the people blocking the way ahead with a little uneasiness.

The leader was a dark-skinned young man in his early twenties, wearing brocade clothes, riding a black horse, and wearing an indigo-blue Hu suit with a lapel and narrow sleeves. He had a handsome and rugged appearance, and his facial features were much more profound than those of ordinary Jing people.

The several tall men accompanying him seemed to be dressed as guards. Each of them had a strong build and stared at the carriage with sharp eyes.

The driver's heart suddenly rose to his throat. They were outnumbered, but the other side was large in number and powerful. It was obvious that they had ill intentions. If a fight broke out, they would definitely be the ones to suffer.

The driver tried to intimidate the other party with a strong appearance: "Who are you? This is under the feet of the emperor, what do you want to do?"

Then, he lowered his voice and reported to Gu Yanfei in the carriage: "Second Miss, someone is blocking the road."

The driver's voice trembled slightly, and he looked warily at the people blocking the road in front and behind him, his face turning pale with fear.

The young man in brocade clothes in the front casually swung the whip in his hand and said with a smile: "It's better to meet by chance than to meet by chance. I just want to chat with Miss Gu Er."

The curtain on the right side of the carriage was opened by a slender white hand, and Gu Yanfei's pretty little face poked out from the window.

Gu Yanfei looked ahead accurately, and his gaze fell on the young man in brocade clothes in the middle. His eyebrows raised slightly, and he looked calm and composed, in sharp contrast to the coachman's panic.

The narrow eyes of the young man in brocade clothes became even hotter the moment he saw Gu Yanfei, and his gaze swept across her little face wantonly.

This little beauty was still so interesting, her reactions were always beyond his expectations. If it were any other girl, she would have been frightened to death by now.

The young man in brocade clothes let out a low, joyful laugh from the bottom of his throat and was in a very good mood.

"Third Prince Baili, what a coincidence to meet you here." Gu Yanfei said casually, stroking his bangs that were messed up by the wind, as if this was a very ordinary encounter. "I heard that Third Prince Baili is about to set off to return to Yue Kingdom?"

As the marriage between the two countries failed, Baili Yin had already asked the emperor to return home, and the emperor agreed. Three days ago, Baili Yin set off from Beijing.

But now he appeared here.

"Second Miss Gu, I am here to invite you to return to the country with me." Baili Yin's deep brown amber eyes sparkled with a strange light as he stared at Gu Yanfei greedily.

Her eyebrows and eyes are delicate, and she is pretty and bright. Her face is not made up. The warm sunlight has coated her creamy skin with a layer of light gold, making her look radiant.

When I first met her last year, this little beauty was just a bud about to bloom, but now, this delicate flower has unfolded its layers of petals, revealing its delicate stamens waiting to be picked.

Who will pick this delicate flower?

Baili Yin pursed his lips tightly, his eyes flashing darkly, like a wolf about to hunt, revealing a greedy, unbridled savagery and a determination to win.

He kicked the horse's belly and drove it a few steps towards Gu Yanfei, smiling cynically, "My little beauty, as long as you are willing to go back to Yue Kingdom with me, I can give you what Gongzi Yi can give you."

"I can grant you the position of principal wife." Baili Yin promised generously, with an expression that seemed to say that she could not escape even if she had wings.

He came all the way from Yue to Jing State this time. Everything went wrong, but his biggest gain was probably Gu Yanfei.

He was amazed by Gu Yanfei from the first time he met her. Subsequent encounters made him look at this little beauty in a different light. There are many beauties, but Gu Yanfei is different.

Gradually, Baili Yin came up with the idea of ​​taking her back to Yue State.

But Chu Yi also fell in love with Gu Yanfei!

Yes, such a stunningly beautiful woman would naturally attract many people.

Only when someone fights for it does this beauty seem more precious and a trophy worth boasting about!

Baili Yin could almost imagine how angry and uneasy Chu Yi would be when he found out that Gu Yanfei was missing.

Pleased by this thought, Baili Yin's thin lips curled higher.

Gu Yanfei smiled with interest, looked at Baili Yin's playful but condescending eyes, and said with certainty: "It's Li Yunmeng, right?"

These five words had no beginning or end, and Baili Yin was stunned when he heard them.

There was silence all around.

All that could be heard was the neighing of the horses and the crisp clatter of their hooves, mixed together and echoing in the breeze in the suburbs.

Baili Yin raised his head and laughed heartily. His laughter was so deep, so arrogant, so unbridled, and full of uninhibitedness.

Soon, he stopped laughing, clapped his hands, and praised loudly: "Second Miss Gu is really smart and has a very smart mind."

"Miss Gu, aren't you surprised at all?" he asked as he leisurely rode his horse towards Gu Yanfei. His tall figure looked down at her from the horse's back, exuding an intimidating aura.

The Yue guards behind were blocking the road like a solid wall.

"Why should I be surprised?" Gu Yanfei smiled, as if nothing had happened. "Li Yunyan and I have always been at odds. She is a proud person and values ​​her dignity the most. If she had no other intentions, why would she take the initiative to let me see her miserable side?"

"Right?" She asked in a questioning tone, but her expression was quite certain.

I'm stuck. The ending is a bit stuck...
