Pei Wenxuan carried Li Rong and ran into the reed field. While the shadow guards and Yang Quan's men were still fighting, he cut off the horses' ropes and whipped them. The horses fled in two different directions. Pei Wenxuan carried the unconscious Li Rong and lay on the ground, motionless.
By the time the two sides realized what had happened, Li Rong was already gone. They could only see something moving quickly in the reeds. The two sides immediately found a direction and chased after it. Pei Wenxuan saw them chasing after the horses and quickly got up. He carried Li Rong and ran towards the dense forest in the distance.
He usually didn't have so much strength, but at this critical moment, he didn't feel that Li Rong was heavy. He carried Li Rong and ran as fast as he could, not daring to stop at all.
Li Rong slowly woke up on his shoulder. As soon as she woke up, she felt something poking her stomach.
She hissed. Pei Wenxuan heard it and hurriedly said, "You're awake?"
Li Rong was shaken by him and wanted to vomit. Her stomach hurt, and the bumps made her dizzy. She hurriedly said, "Put me down!"
Pei Wenxuan confirmed that she was awake and immediately put her down. Before Li Rong could react, he dragged her and rushed forward, shouting, "Run!"
"Pei Wenxuan …" Li Rong didn't understand the situation at all. She was dragged all the way through the dense forest. She said in a trembling voice, "I … I want to vomit …"
"Swallow it!"
Pei Wenxuan decisively opened his mouth and explained, "There are pursuers behind us, we …"
Before he finished speaking, Li Rong vomited in Pei Wenxuan's direction. Pei Wenxuan quickly let go of Li Rong and jumped to the side. He saw Li Rong kneel on the ground and vomit.
Pei Wenxuan was shocked by Li Rong. He quickly looked around. After confirming that there were no pursuers, he walked to Li Rong's side and handed a handkerchief to Li Rong. He frowned and said, "Are you okay?"
Li Rong wiped her mouth with the handkerchief and stood up gracefully. She looked around and said, "Where are we?"
Pei Wenxuan fell silent. Li Rong saw that he didn't speak and knew that something was wrong. She frowned and said, "You don't know."
"We were running too fast," Pei Wenxuan said calmly, "We didn't pay attention to the road. We should be in the forest now."
"Nonsense!" Li Rong shouted angrily, "I don't know that we're in the forest? I'm asking you how to get out! "
"Let's wait for someone." Pei Wenxuan was yelled at by her and suddenly became unhappy. He turned his head and said directly, "Find a suitable place to rest first. Yang Quan's people can't guarantee that they won't find us."
Li Rong heard this and felt that it made sense. However, she was unhappy when she saw Pei Wenxuan's sullen face. When she thought about how she was injured and he wasn't, she was even more unhappy. Thus, she stood still. Pei Wenxuan walked a few steps and saw that Li Rong wasn't following. He looked back at her and frowned, "What are you up to now?"
"My head hurts."
Li Rong raised her hand to her forehead and sighed, "I can't walk. Sigh."
"You have a headache, not a limp," Pei Wenxuan said instinctively. However, after saying that, he remembered where the injury on his head came from. He felt a little guilty and his attitude changed 180 degrees. He coughed and said, "But it's not a small matter. Let me carry you."
Pei Wenxuan walked in front of Li Rong and squatted down.
Li Rong saw Pei Wenxuan's good attitude and couldn't help but feel a little scared. She looked around Pei Wenxuan suspiciously. After confirming that there were no traps, she carefully climbed up. Pei Wenxuan carried her and chose a direction to walk in. Li Rong saw that he seemed to have a direction and couldn't help but ask, "Where are we going?"
"Let's find a water source first."
Pei Wenxuan said directly. Li Rong couldn't help but laugh, "You know where the water source is?"
"There are some ways." Pei Wenxuan was very patient when faced with serious questions. He explained, "For example, looking at the types of plants, the density of their growth, the height of the terrain, and the clouds …"
Pei Wenxuan paused and then said, "Why do you know these things? It's not your job anyway."
"You're right." Li Rong nodded, "This kind of thing is only for people like you."
"Li Rong." Pei Wenxuan took a deep breath, "Will you die if you don't speak properly?"
"Not with others," Li Rong said with a smile. "But with you, I can't. I think Lord Pei looks better when he's angry. "
"Then you're crazy."
Pei Wenxuan directly retorted, "You're blind."
"You're impudent." Li Rong lay on his back and said lazily, "Do you think I'm someone you can speak to like that? Hurry up and apologize to me! "
"You're already out of the palace, yet you're still so arrogant." Pei Wenxuan sneered, "Do you believe that I'll leave you here and wait for Yang Quan to find you? Let's see what you'll do then."
"You speak as if I'm afraid." Li Rong raised her eyebrows, "Can he kill me? At most, he'll marry me. With his short life, do you think he'll be able to live past this winter? I'm afraid he won't even see the end of the year before he goes to the Underworld to meet the Harken. When that time comes, I'll be a widow. When my father dies, I'll immediately raise ten or twenty guests. Won't I be happy? "
"Even now, you're still thinking about raising guests." Pei Wenxuan sneered, "You're really something."
"Of course, I'm optimistic." Li Rong said, then sighed, "But speaking of which, I didn't expect Yang Quan to be so smart. I've already sent two groups of people out, but he was still able to guess my true route and set up an ambush on the road. He can be considered an extraordinary person. How did he die so easily in his previous life?"
Pei Wenxuan, "…"
He didn't dare to speak. Li Rong wrapped her arms around Pei Wenxuan's neck and suddenly looked at him, somewhat puzzled, "By the way, why are you here? Didn't you go back? "
Pei Wenxuan, "…"
He had never lied in front of Li Rong, but he didn't have the courage to speak the truth now. Li Rong saw that he didn't speak and couldn't help but laugh, "You didn't come back to save me, right? Pei Wenxuan, you dog, you're not bad. "
"Don't talk so much," Pei Wenxuan said awkwardly, "Save your energy."
"Why didn't I see you in the beginning? Where did you hide? By the way, did you come to save me alone? No way, you're so … "
Before the word "stupid" could leave her mouth, Li Rong suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Was Pei Wenxuan such a stupid person?
Even if he had no power or influence now, how could he come here alone without any preparation and confront Yang Quan head-on?
Moreover, Yang Quan was also a bit strange. If Yang Quan had guessed her plan from the beginning and set up an ambush for her on the road, then why didn't he set up an ambush in front of her directly? Why did he have to chase after her from the back of the mountain?
Li Rong reacted. She couldn't help but clench her hands and sneered, "Lord Pei, I have something to ask of you."
"I did it."
Pei Wenxuan knew that Li Rong understood and immediately said, "But I can explain that I really wanted to help you. Those stones … "
"They all fell on me."
Li Rong was so angry that she laughed, "Pei Wenxuan, tell me the truth." She took a deep breath and said, "Are you here for revenge?"
Pei Wenxuan was silent. Li Rong's anger rose. She tried to calm herself down and restrained her voice, "Put me down."
Pei Wenxuan quickly put her down. Li Rong angrily walked forward. She wanted to stay away from this person. She was afraid that she would lose her composure.
Pei Wenxuan knew that he was in the wrong. He quickly followed and said, "If I say that I'm not here for revenge, would you believe me? You don't believe me either. "
"Do you have a reason for me to believe you? I think you have no way out. You must want to marry me, but you can't bring yourself to do it. That's why you came up with such a plan! "
Li Rong turned around and pointed at Pei Wenxuan. She said angrily, "You just can't bear to see me marry Lu Yu!"
"Why can't I bear to see you marry her?" Pei Wenxuan frowned and explained seriously, "You have nothing to do with me. Why should I care who you marry? Do I need to care? "
"Nothing to do with you?" Li Rong sneered. "Do you think I don't know you? You can't bear to part with me! "
"You're talking nonsense!" Pei Wenxuan was angered by this "can't bear to part with me". He jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "I don't have you in my heart. If I can't bear to part with you, it's Zhenzhen. Don't you have any idea?!"
"Well, you actually dare to mention Qin Zhenzhen to me?" When Li Rong heard this person say "Qin Zhenzhen", she didn't care about hiding her identity. She said directly, "If you like him, then go ahead and marry him. Didn't you marry me in your previous life? Yes, you don't like me, but you can't bear to part with my identity as a princess! Pei Wenxuan, you're the most shameless, spineless, and shameless gigolo I've ever seen! "
"My gigolo?" Pei Wenxuan laughed angrily. "Am I as handsome as your Guest Su? Li Rong, do the math yourself. Other than at the beginning of our marriage, when did I rely on you for food? And at the beginning, we also relied on each other. You gave me an official career, so didn't I help your younger brother ascend the throne? Besides, later on, did you use me less? Let's not talk about other things. Let's talk about your princess residence's food and clothing. Whose money did you use? "
"Then I really have to thank you." Li Rong laughed. "Thank you for spending money on my man every year. You're so generous. Don't you know why you're spending money on me? If you weren't my son-in-law, do you think my younger brother would trust you so much? I beg of you, don't flatter yourself. That's not giving me money to support me. That's buying resources from me. Lord Pei, can you wake up a little? "
"Oh, I want to buy resources from you. You used my intelligence network and my spies, but you didn't give me a single cent?"
"Then when you used my name to pressure people and asked me to persuade my younger brother, you didn't say anything?"
"Ah, didn't His Majesty suspect you? When His Majesty argued with you, saying that your conduct was improper and wanted to drive you back to your fief, who was the one who begged me to put on an act? "
"No matter what, His Majesty is still my younger brother. When His Majesty had you dragged out to be beaten, who was the one who asked me to go to the imperial study to beg for help?"
"You still have the nerve to say that? That year … "
The two of them went back and forth, cursing at each other. One by one, they compared old events. After cursing for most of the night, the two of them were both panting.
Pei Wenxuan had carried Li Rong for a long time and carried her for a long distance. He had long lost his strength.
Li Rong was a woman and had suffered some injuries, so she had long lost her strength.
The two of them were like two fighting cocks. You look at me, I look at you. They clearly had no strength, but neither of them was willing to admit defeat.
After a long time, Pei Wenxuan's stomach rumbled.
He had crawled in the soil for so long that he hadn't eaten dinner.
Pei Wenxuan suddenly froze when he heard the rumbling sound. Li Rong finally found a way out. It was rare that she didn't laugh at him. She turned around and said, "Forget it. This consort is tired. I'll go rest first. Find something to eat. After eating, we'll quarrel again. "
"This humble subject agrees."
Pei Wenxuan nodded and followed behind Li Rong.
The two of them quietly walked for a while. Li Rong sighed, "I didn't think that you would really come."
Pei Wenxuan was stunned. After a while, he lowered his head and softly replied, "Un, I'm back." He couldn't help but call out in a low voice, "Your Highness the Eldest Princess."
