The purpose of the princess's trip was to bring Wu Chongxun and Li Guo'er together. When she saw that Wu Chongxun had come to bid farewell to her on Li Guo'er's behalf, she smiled knowingly. She thought that the two of them had already fallen in love with each other, so she was naturally happy to see it happen.
Wu Chongxun hurriedly summoned Li Guo'er's carriage and his own guards. He rushed to the side of the road and saw Li Guo'er standing there like a blooming spring flower.
Wu Chongxun hurriedly dismounted and courteously invited Princess Anle to board. He automatically became her escort, escorting Li Guo'er's carriage to the imperial road.
Li Guo'er lowered the curtain and secretly observed Wu Chongxun, who was in high spirits on horseback. She subconsciously bit her pinky again. Everything that had happened today was like a strange dream. She still needed some time to digest it.
The carriages reached the imperial road and turned in the direction of the imperial palace. At this moment, Yang Fan arrived with Ren Wei and a few other guards.
Even though Yang Fan wasn't familiar with Wu Chongxun, he recognized him. Yang Fan had visited the Liang Estate several times in the past, and he had seen this heir before. As he followed the imperial road, he saw the banner of King Liang's heir from afar. Yang Fan was a bit surprised. "King Liang's family banquet? Why is the heir so ostentatious? Is he not participating in the clan's banquet?"
Yang Fan slowed down his horse. When he got closer, he saw that King Liang's heir was indeed there. He cupped his fists and said, "Heir!"
Wu Chongxun hadn't expected to see Yang Fan here. His expression and mood immediately became extremely strange.
Just a moment ago, he had viewed Yang Fan as a rival in love. However, after Li Guo'er's tearful complaints on the small bridge in the temple's backyard, he couldn't bring himself to make things difficult for Yang Fan anymore. In particular, he remembered every word that Princess Anle had said. Princess Anle had said that she regarded Yang Fan as her elder brother. If he offended her elder brother, what would he do if the beauty no longer cared about him?
But for Wu Chongxun to let go of the knot in his heart and treat Yang Fan as his own big brother, Wu Chongxun could not adapt to this drastic change. Just as he was feeling awkward, Li Guo 'er lifted the curtain and called out to Yang Fan cheerfully, "Brother Yang!"
Li Guo'er thought for a long time in the carriage. That dream-like feeling finally settled into reality. She knew that she had used her beauty to conquer a subject, and it was the most loyal one at that. The great heir of King Liang was actually willing to lick her toes. This person could forget about escaping from her clutches.
Just as she was feeling pleased with herself, Yang Fan arrived. Li Guo'er was also quite surprised. She did not expect to meet Yang Fan here. She changed her mind and happily went out to greet him. She had already told Wu Chongxun that she regarded Yang Fan as her benefactor, as her biological brother. If she did not act naturally and gracefully at this time, Wu Chongxun would be suspicious.
"Brother Yang, where are you going?"
Yang Fan looked at Li Guo 'er, then looked at Wu Chongxun, he smiled and said, "I was just about to attend the banquet at the Liang Palace. Is the Crown Prince and the Princess … traveling together? "
Li Guo 'er said, "At the invitation of the Princess, today I'm traveling with many noble young masters and the Minister's daughter to the northern outskirts of Luo City. I don't like the tricks of those nobles, so I'm going to trouble Xiao Wangye to send me back to the city. Brother Yang is going the same way as me. Quickly get in the carriage, I want to have a chat with you. "
Li Guo 'er's move was very clever. The more natural and unrestrained she was in front of Wu Chongxun, the less suspicious Wu Chongxun was. It's just that … although An Le regarded Yang Fan as her brother, they were not biological brothers. The woman's carriage was not very wide, so the two of them sat side by side …
Wu Chongxun thought, "I am An Le's future husband, but I have never sat side by side with her. Letting Yang Fan go up, it's not nice."
Wu Chongxun smiled and said, "General Yang and I are old acquaintances. We haven't seen each other for a long time and I want to catch up. Why don't you and I walk side by side and talk as we walk!"
Yang Fan felt that Li Guo 'er was too daring. When he heard Wu Chongxun's words, he felt relieved and immediately nodded happily, "That's exactly what I want!"
Li Guo 'er had already figured out Wu Chongxun's thoughts. How could she still care about this Crown Prince Liang whom she respected and feared before today? Her pretty face immediately turned serious and she looked at Wu Chongxun and said, "Brother Yang is going to the Liang Palace for a banquet. If Xiao Wangye wants to chat with Brother Yang, it's fine even if we talk until late at night. My family lives in the palace and it's rare for me to see Brother Yang. Xiao Wangye, will you allow me to catch up? "
Wu Chongxun was already enchanted. How could he dare to object to Li Guo 'er's words? He immediately said awkwardly, "Princess is right. If that's the case … please board the carriage!"
Yang Fan always felt that there was a strange atmosphere between the three of them. For a moment, he couldn't figure out what it was. In fact, since the last encounter on the street, he gradually felt that this Li Guo 'er was not so simple. But now that Wu Chongxun was next to him, if he didn't board the carriage, it would seem that he had a guilty conscience. In desperation, he abandoned his horse and boarded the carriage.
As soon as Yang Fan boarded the carriage, Li Guo 'er raised her hand and let down the curtain. When she let down the curtain, a pair of extremely charming eyes even glanced at Wu Chongxun provocatively. Wu Chongxun secretly comforted himself, "It's my fault. I spoke rudely just now and made An Le unhappy. She's deliberately angering me. That must be it."
Although the curtain was let down, the movements inside could be seen from the outside. Yang Fan was not worried that An Le would dare to harass him. So as soon as the curtain was let down, Yang Fan's face sank and he said in a low voice, "What do you want to do now? Do you really not care about your reputation?"
Li Guo 'er said with grievance, "Brother, why are you more and more rude to me? You've saved my life and my father's life. You're my family's great benefactor. You and I have been husband and wife. Why are you being so cold to me? What did I do wrong? "
As soon as Yang Fan heard her mention this, he was somewhat discouraged. He couldn't argue with Li Guo 'er because he always felt that she was not telling the truth. The scene in the Wisteria Cave on the Yellow Bamboo Ridge was like a thorn in his heart. Thinking about it later, he felt that she was not a young girl who had just experienced the world.
Yang Fan could only ease his tone and said, "Junzhu, in the past, I didn't know your identity and made a big mistake. Now that your father is about to become the Crown Prince, Junzhu will soon become the princess of the Tang dynasty. I already have a family. It's impossible for me to have any relationship with the princess. Since it's like this, Junzhu is extremely intelligent. I believe I don't have to explain it too clearly! "
Li Guo 'er wept sadly and said, "What you said makes sense. Of course I understand, I couldn't help it."
Li Guo 'er spoke in a melancholy and sorrowful tone. Her beautiful countenance was brimming with tears. If any other man heard this, he would be moved. Immediately, the small head commanded the big head. He felt the beauty's great kindness. He would be willing to sacrifice his life for this woman. From then on, he would be like Wu Chongxun, obediently a slave under her skirt.
However, Yang Fan was different. Although Guo 'er was beautiful, he would not be captivated by her beauty. The cloud of doubt in his heart lowered Guo 'er's pretentious charm. Yang Fan could not question her too harshly, so he advised, "If you take one step further, you will harm others and yourself. If you take one step back, everyone will be happy. Junzhu suffered for sixteen years at the Yellow Bamboo Ridge. It's not easy for you to return to the palace. Don't make a mistake!"
How could Li Guo 'er listen to Yang Fan's words? She loved this kind of adventure, the thrill of playing with fire. She loved the feeling of having a man in the palm of her hand. It was like a kind of power that made one feel as if they were floating in the clouds. It was fascinating. The Crown Prince Liang, Wu Chongxun, prostrated himself at her feet. He was willing to live as a slave. This further fueled her wild ambition.
The more Yang Fan kept a respectful distance from her, the stronger her desire to conquer. If she could not conquer Yang Fan and make him obediently follow her orders, she would not be satisfied. This feeling was very complicated. Perhaps she really liked Yang Fan. Perhaps it was just like the cat that she had raised in the beginning. She felt that she had paid the price, so she must get it back.
Or perhaps, Wu Chongxun's conquest had made this Royal Country Maiden, who grew up in a small mountain village and had ascended to the highest echelons of the Empire, uncertain about her own position. Her wild ambition had expanded too quickly. She did not have the breadth of mind and wisdom that had matured in the process of climbing up step by step. That was why she had lost herself.
However, she enjoyed playing with fire. She bit her lip. She was very unwilling to accept her own failure. She thought in her heart, "My beauty can make the great Crown Prince Liang willingly become a slave. Why can't I conquer you?"
Hence, a soft hand that was placed on the couch quietly stretched out and held Yang Fan's hand. She grabbed Yang Fan's hand and gently placed it on her youthful and supple thigh. Yang Fan was startled. He raised his eyes and looked at her. He scolded in a low voice, "Are you crazy?"
Li Guo 'er said sweetly, "I can't see clearly from the outside."
The tips of her brows and the corners of her eyes were full of lust. Her eyes were as moist as spring water. She stared fixedly at Yang Fan. Using an extremely seductive and charming voice, she said, "There are so many royal sisters, aunts, and even grandaunt. They can all live freely. Why are they so demanding of me? Compared to them, do you think I have suffered less? Yang Lang, I am your woman. You can't deny this, can you? "
As Li Guo 'er spoke, she gently grabbed Yang Fan's hand and moved it along her supple thigh toward her own Peach Blossom Bud. Yang Fan did not expect her to be so shameless. The disgust in his heart deepened. His palm tightened and grabbed her thigh. It was like an iron pincer, making it difficult for him to move. It was so painful that Li Guo 'er was about to cry.
Yang Fan's face was as cold as ice. He coldly said, "In the Gentleness Fang, there are countless men who spend the night there. If every man who spends the night there has slept with a woman and treated her as his, then wouldn't the man be as stupid as a pig?"
Li Guo 'er already knew what kind of place the Gentleness Fang was. Her face immediately changed. She hatefully said, "What do you treat me as?"
Yang Fan coldly said, "It's not what I treat you as, but what do you treat yourself as?"
Li Guo 'er hatefully stared at Yang Fan. Her expression changed several times. No one knew what she was thinking. After a long time, her expression relaxed. She suddenly smiled sweetly at Yang Fan. She gently lowered her head and said in a soft voice, "What do I treat myself as? Of course I treat myself as your woman, your slave. As long as you like me, I will do anything for you. I am willing. "
Wu Chongxun rode his horse beside the carriage. He did not want Li Guo 'er to look down on him. He was afraid that she would hate him for not trusting her. So he did not dare to stare at the carriage. He could only use the corner of his eyes to look. Although the gauze was thin, he could not see anything. He pricked up his ears to listen carefully but he still could not hear anything.
He thought about it carefully and laughed at himself. "How can I use dirty thoughts to measure her? That would be blasphemy against a fairy. Besides, what can happen in public? I have to be open-minded. I must not let her think that I am narrow-minded. But if I can make a beauty happy, then anything for her is worth it. "
