Such a horse is almost exclusive to the Yang family in Huajing. Now the Yang family gathered their men and horses and hurried towards the princess's mansion, with only one goal -

They want Li Rong.

With Yang Quan's style, if he didn't have the opportunity to marry Li Rong, he naturally wouldn't think about it. But now that he has it, a madman like him can do anything.

Under normal circumstances, Yang Quan would have someone pretend to kidnap Li Rong, wait for the critical moment to rescue her, and then spend a night alone with Li Rong, and Li Rong might fall in love with him.

Even if Li Rong was not moved, Li Ming was an emperor who attached great importance to reputation. After Li Rong and Yang Quan spent such an unclear night together, Li Ming would definitely give her a marriage.

If Li Rong resists, won't Yang Quan do something extreme? Then, for the sake of the royal family's reputation, Li Ming will probably marry Li Rong to him. After she marries him, he will destroy the Yang family and settle the score with her later.

Once the Yang family is destroyed, if Li Chuan takes action for Li Rong, it will be what the emperor wants. He will turn the anger of the Yang family onto the prince and take the opportunity to propose deposing the prince.

If Li Chuan doesn't care about Li Rong, then he can use the Yang family's excuse to demote Li Rong to a commoner or send her to a Taoist temple. The emperor can rest assured that the prince will definitely not have the opportunity to use Li Rong's marriage to entangle anyone.

So for Li Ming, as long as Li Rong was unfaithful, she would be married to Yang Quan no matter what.

Where did Yang Quan get the courage?

Pei Wenxuan closed his eyes and thought back to his previous life. Not long after his previous life, the Yang family almost died on the front line. He didn't believe that it wasn't the emperor who did it.

Yang Quan was so anxious, probably because he knew that the Yang family was on the brink of death. Whether he kidnapped the princess or not, he would die.

At this moment, the Yang family urgently needs Li Rong to tie Li Chuan down. Once Li Rong marries Yang Quan, Li Chuan will be tied to the Yang family. Even if Li Chuan doesn't want to, Li Ming won't believe it. So Li Chuan can only be forced to have a father-son fight with Li Ming, and this is the best chance for the Yang family to survive.

The more Pei Wenxuan thought about it, the more he felt that Yang Quan was too mean. But this left him with a question: Should he help? To what extent?

He must help, at least he has to go back and inform Li Chuan so that people can go to rescue.

But what else?

If Li Chuan is slow to rescue...

Pei Wenxuan thought about it and felt a little reluctant. Li Rong was always proud. She had to endure this humiliation and was forced to marry him. No matter what, she would probably remember it for the rest of her life. But if he wanted to help, how could he help?

He is not a hero who can save Li Rong from danger. The only purpose of his return is to delay some time and increase the possibility of Li Rong being spared from humiliation. However, he would have to pay with his life for such a possibility. If he is not careful, Yang Quan might even kill him.

Is it worth it?

Pei Wenxuan fell into deep thought.

He may have had some affection for Li Rong when he was young, but later on, it faded away with time. The two of them hated each other, and if there was any affection, it was mostly because they had known each other for too long, and the other person had already become a part of their lives.

As for this person, not a lover, not even a good friend, risking his life for her is really not Pei Wenxuan's style. He can help her pass on the news, which is the most he can do.

Pei Wenxuan thought of this and turned his head. He looked at the small bowl on the table, then moved his gaze to the box next to it. The box had two layers. He looked at the lower layer that had not been opened. After hesitating for a moment, he opened it and found the white silver.

Li Rong had previously mocked him for borrowing a carriage from his family, knowing his current predicament. Although she laughed at him, now that they were parting, she also thought about him and prepared money for him.

Pei Wenxuan was dazzled by the money. He didn't have time to think before he shouted, "Tong Ye, stop the car!"

Tong Ye heard Pei Wenxuan's shout and hurriedly stopped the car, asking in confusion, "Young Master?"

"Go back now and tell the Crown Prince's Mansion that something has happened to the princess and someone wants to kill her. Ask them to send someone over immediately."

Pei Wenxuan jumped off the carriage, quickly untied a horse to Tong Ye, and turned around and said, "Hurry up and don't delay."

"What about you?"

Tong Ye asked anxiously, "Sir, aren't you coming with us?"

"I have to go back to the princess."

Pei Wenxuan immediately said: "Don't worry about me, go!"

Tong Ye did not dare to delay, although he was worried about Pei Wenxuan, he still gritted his teeth and hurried back.

Pei Wenxuan looked at the carriage pulled by the remaining three horses, jumped on it, and turned around to rush to the villa.

After rushing for a while, he realized that it would not work. If he rushed over now, the place would probably be full of Yang's people. If he went over, he might not even be able to get through to the other courtyard.

According to Li Rong's travel habits, she had to have at least twenty secret guards by her side. That was assigned to her by the Empress. Together with her entourage, there were at least a hundred people.

The number of people from the Yang family who just passed by was about forty. They were moving very fast and had badges with green patterns on their waists. According to the Yang family's custom, those with green badges should belong to reinforcements. Usually, their reinforcements are about half of the total number of people. So there may be nearly a hundred people lying in ambush on the Yang family's side.

With Li Rong's skills as a secret guard, if she encountered an attack, he could at least ensure that she could break out from the villa. The greatest help he could give Li Rong now was to delay the pursuers from the Yang family.

After realizing this, Pei Wenxuan stopped moving forward. He roughly calculated the position where Li Rong might break out and took a few steps back.

He quickly looked at the surrounding terrain. This road was lined with reeds, with a few trees scattered among the reeds. The reeds were almost as tall as a person, and he could not see what was going on inside at all.

Pei Wenxuan got on the carriage, rummaged around, and found some clothes, flint, swords, and some ropes inside.

Pei Wenxuan first unloaded the horse, pulled it into the reeds, tied it to the side of a tree, then turned back and used his sword to quickly dismantle the carriage and cut it into several boards.

He used a rope to connect the boards and placed them on both sides of the road. Then he propped up a large stone under the boards, picked up many stones, wrapped them in clothes, and placed them on one end of the boards.

He set up several such roadblocks and finally connected them with a rope. As long as he pulled the rope, all the ropes on the road would stand up, and then the horse would be entangled by the rope. After being entangled, the rope would be tightened and would pull the board, and the stones on the other side of the board would fly over.

After doing this, Pei Wenxuan relaxed a little. As long as Li Rong could run out smoothly, with Yang Quan's men like him, it was certain that Li Rong would run away. But he didn't know whether he could run away.

But now he doesn't think too much about it. Once a decision is made, there is nothing to think about.

He hid in the reeds, lying on his belly, holding the rope of the mechanism in his hands, and his head was covered with a reed wreath he had made himself.

He was waiting for Yang Quan to come!

While Pei Wenxuan was thinking about all this, Li Rong was lying on the rocking chair, rocking it while eating the grapes Jingmei fed her: "Is there someone lying in ambush outside?"

She closed her eyes and listened to the report from the secret guard, who knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "There are quite a few people. Your Majesty's people have already gone to ask for help. Princess, please wait patiently."

"Don't worry," Li Rong opened her eyes. "Why should I worry? Those people won't kill me anyway, right?"

The people around him were silent. Li Rong stood up and said calmly, "However, if we stay here for a little longer, those people will probably attack the other courtyard. We may not be able to wait for His Majesty's people and be caught in the jar first."

"What does the princess mean?" The dark guard raised his eyes and looked at Li Rong. Li Rong said calmly, "We have to leave now."

"No." Jinglan said immediately, "It's too dangerous to go out now."

"Did I say I was out?"

Li Rong turned around, somewhat puzzled. Jing Lan frowned, "What does the princess want to do?"

"Jingmei will pretend to be me in a while, and then you can sit in my carriage and go to the official road. When you leave, Yangquan will definitely chase you. Then I will quietly take Jinglan out through the back door, isn't that enough?"

After hearing this, everyone present suddenly understood, and the secret guard nodded and said, "Princess, you are wise."

"Do it immediately."

Li Rong yawned: "It's no big deal. Anyway, I'm going to be caught. I won't suffer any loss if I sleep for a night."

"Yang Quan is pretty good-looking," Li Rong looked at the maid standing beside her and raised her eyebrows, "Isn't that right?"

The maid she called was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly knelt down and said anxiously: "What the princess said is right."

Seeing the maid panicking, Li Rong couldn't help but laugh: "Why are you so nervous? I'm not a cannibal. Okay."

She said calmly, "Get ready. Split into two groups. I'll go through the back door."

As she spoke, Li Rong raised one hand, and with Jinglan's support, she slowly walked into the house.

Jingmei hurried to prepare, and in less than half an hour, the first convoy set out from the villa.

It was already dusk, and Li Rong was still sitting on the couch flipping through a travel book. Jinglan saw that she looked calm and said respectfully, "Princess, it's time to get ready to set off."

Li Rong said "hmm" but didn't move.

After a while, the secret guard jumped in from the window, knelt on one knee, and whispered: "Princess, the people ambushing outside have not moved."

"As expected." Li Rong sighed, "I thought Yang Quan had no guts to kidnap me, and he wasn't afraid of anything going wrong. It turns out there's a spy behind the scenes."

"Jinglan," Li Rong raised her eyes, looked at her, and said with a smile, "Put on my clothes, take the people, ride out, go out the back door, go around the back mountain, and stay away from the official road. Go out quickly, don't get caught."

Jinglan was stunned for a moment, and then she heard Li Rong instruct the secret guards: "Send fifteen people to escort Jinglan out, and leave five for me."

The secret guard responded, and Jinglan reacted and said "yes", then immediately changed into Li Rong's clothes and led everyone out.

Not long after going out, they heard the deafening shouts of killing. Li Rong immediately stood up, changed into a set of guard uniforms that had been prepared earlier, combed her hair into a man's bun, and then led the remaining five secret guards. While Jinglan was leading the people to the back mountain, she rushed out of the main gate like an arrow from a bow and rushed towards the official road!

At this time, the night wind was strong, and the lights of Huajing in the distance illuminated the night sky. Li Rong ran wildly in the night, not being able to distinguish the stars and the moon.

Yang Quan led his men to chase Jinglan for a while, and suddenly saw someone running away on the official road. Yang Quan reacted suddenly and shouted, "Chase him on the official road!"

At this time Pei Wenxuan was crawling in the mud and waiting.

Li Rong's carriage had just passed by, and Yang Quan's pursuers were likely to arrive soon.

His heart was beating fast and he held the rope in his hand nervously. At this moment, he heard the sound of a horse galloping towards him!

In the darkness of night, a group of common people holding sharp blades ran after Li Rong's carriage. Although the faces of the people could not be seen clearly in the darkness, it must be Yang Quan without a doubt!

Pei Wenxuan silently counted the distance of the person coming, three, two, one!

Pull the rope!

Pei Wenxuan pulled the rope suddenly, and Li Rong's horse was tripped by the rope and screamed. Li Rong fell to the ground, and the secret guard shouted hurriedly: "Your Highness!"

At the same time, countless cloths wrapped in stones flew down and hit Li Rong and the secret guards directly.

Li Rong was hit on the head by a small stone and her vision went black immediately.

Before she passed out, Li Rong couldn't help but think that she had underestimated Yang Quan. She didn't expect that although he looked like a fool, he could actually set an ambush here.

When Pei Wenxuan heard the word "Your Highness", he knew something was wrong. He looked at the fainted Li Rong and his heart skipped a beat. A moment later, he heard Yang Quan's angry voice rushing over from behind, "Princess, don't leave!"

Hearing this, the secret guards drew their swords and rushed towards Yang Quan.

Amid the chaos, Pei Wenxuan hurriedly crawled out of the reed field, picked up the unconscious Li Rong, and rushed into the reed field again while holding the reeds on his head.

When the secret guards reacted and turned around to pick up Li Rong and run away, they were surprised to find that the princess was missing!

Author's words: Li Rong: "I used to think that Master Pei was smart, cunning, and treacherous, but now I know that I was wrong."

Mo Shubai: "What do you think now?"

Li Rong gracefully touched the white cloth on her head and said, "I think he is a fool."

Pei Wenxuan: "Actually, I can explain this matter..."

Li Rong: "Explain it."

Pei Wenxuan: "Actually, if you don't want to go through so many twists and turns, there will be no problem if you follow my plan."

Li Rong: "If you don't come, there will be no problem for me."

In fact, this is probably a story of positive and negative, a hero saving the beauty? Not happening.
