The concubine pretends to be obedient, the sinister prince's favorite

The moon was shining brightly in the sky, and Jiang Li opened the tent and walked out.

Since they were going up the mountain quietly, the royal guards did not set up tents this time, but slept anywhere.

There are only two tents in the entire dense forest. One is used by Li Jinyuan and Li Youchuan to deploy strategies, and the other is where Jiang Li is staying.

Jiang Li gathered her shawl around her and glanced sideways at the tent on the other side, which was only lit by a faint candlelight. The little light was barely visible in the dense forest.

"Are they still talking?"

Qi Yu, who was guarding the door of her tent, came forward upon hearing the sound and bowed slightly before answering her.

"The prince and the fourth prince have been in there for two hours. I guess... they will talk until very late tonight. Princess can go to sleep first."

Jiang Li didn't say anything, but frowned slightly.

It seems that this bandit suppression is really a bit tricky. After all, the number of imperial guards is indeed not less than those bandits...

"I can't sleep, please walk with me."

This trip was dangerous, so Jiang Li did not bring tassels. Not to mention that she had no ability to protect herself, the most important thing was that she could not increase the burden on the royal guards.

"Yes."

Jiang Li looked around. She wanted to see the terrain of the mountain. Maybe there would be an entrance suitable for them to break through.

The two did not go far, but just circled around the royal guards' camp.

Until they reached a higher mound, the girl glanced down casually and was suddenly blinded by a cold white light.

Jiang Li's nerves tensed up, and the next second she pulled Qi Yu down to squat.

If she was not mistaken, the cold light just now should be the moonlight reflected by some knives.

someone...

Jiang Li pursed her lips. This place was so close to the Royal Guards' camp, so they should have been spotted a long time ago and were now in an environment where they were being monitored.

These bandits were even more difficult to deal with than she had imagined...

Qi Yu didn't understand, but looking at the girl's expression, he became alert.

After all, the prince had given him an order to protect the princess even at the cost of his life! He absolutely could not fail in his duty!

"Shh, don't talk."

Qi Yu nodded, then followed Jiang Li's actions and carefully stuck his head out.

The two of them squinted their eyes in sync, trying to see more clearly.

From some distance away, Jiang Li could only see two people wearing animal fur standing together and talking, with the big swords on their waists shining coldly, which made people shudder.

"What else are they saying..."

"I don't know, let's see."

Jiang Li tried to move forward a little further, and just as she hid behind a tree, she saw a scene that made her unbelievable.

The two men's eyes widened at the same time as they saw a man in black and gray clothes walking towards them.

This outfit is for the royal guards!

"Undercover!?"

Jiang Li turned around and looked at Qi Yu, whose face also darkened.

Ever since the last time the prince ordered him to find the hidden lackey among the royal guards, he has been observing him every moment, but he just couldn't find him. The man hadn't made any movement in Changzhou, otherwise he would have caught him.

Tonight, he caught him red-handed. Fortunately, the prince and the fourth prince have been more cautious since last time. They discuss important matters away from others and never let anyone else know.

I guess even if he wanted to tip off the audience this time, he wouldn't be able to explain why.

"Humph, this time I will definitely bring him to justice!"

Hearing the voice, Jiang Li turned around and glanced at him, the teasing and disgust in her eyes were self-evident.

It's been so long and they still haven't caught him. If she hadn't taken him out for a walk, they probably wouldn't have found him.

The meaning in the girl's eyes was too obvious, and even the dark environment could not hide the blush on Qi Yu's face.

What should I do? My ability to do things has been questioned by the princess. Will she say bad things about me in front of the prince? Wuwuwu...

(*??????)

Seeing how pitiful he looked, Jiang Li couldn't bear to tease him anymore. She rolled up her skirt and tried to sneak closer.

After all, he is an undercover agent. What if he overhears the tactics discussed by Li Jinyuan and Li Youchuan? She cannot let the royal guards be in a passive position as the numbers are already unbalanced.

"Princess! What are you doing..."

Seeing the girl's intention, Qi Yu was a little panicked.

If she rushed in like this, she would easily be discovered. Besides, they didn't know if these were the only two bandits hiding nearby.

"Don't worry, we'll do it secretly and find out how much the undercover agent knows."

After she finished speaking, Jiang Li lifted the hem of her skirt and moved forward cautiously.

Qi Yu followed behind him, and even though his face was filled with worry and he was about to cry, he did not dare to disobey the princess.

Fifty meters, thirty meters, ten meters...

"Enough! Enough! We can't go any further..."

Qi Yu didn't care about anything this time and directly grabbed Jiang Li's arm.

The girl stopped obediently, and something could be vaguely heard from here.

"Okay, that's it. Go back and keep investigating."

?

Just like that? What? Just like that!? It was over right after she arrived!?

Jiang Li clenched her back teeth and wanted to curse for the first time in her life.

Qi Yu also wanted to curse. He had been worried for a long time, and now he had to listen to this?

Seeing that the undercover imperial guard walked away, the two men did not plan to stay here for long. They crouched down and planned to go back and catch the man in the act.

But who would have thought that the "click" sound would be magnified a hundred times in this quiet space.

Jiang Li lowered her head stiffly, swallowed, and her eyes were dead.

Why didn't anyone tell her that the dead branches in autumn would be so crisp, the sound was even crisper than the potato chips she loved to eat.

(*??????)

"Who is where!"

Qi Yu looked at Jiang Li with tears in his eyes, then pulled her and ran away.

The two men had such big knives on their waists, and he was unarmed, so he could only be hacked in vain.

"Damn it, chase!"

The moment the two men rushed up, one of them whistled with his fingers pinched.

If Jiang Li didn't understand what this meant at first, then she, who was surrounded at this moment, must have known it clearly.

He was shaking people...

These bandits are really hiding everywhere, one jumping down from the tree, another crawling out from the ground. Were they left behind during the evolution of human beings?

"Great... So it's the Third Princess, it really was easy to get her. It saved my brothers from having to catch you! Hahaha..."

The leader laughed extremely wildly, and the look he gave Jiang Li was truly disgusting.

"You are as beautiful as a fairy. Don't worry, even if big brother gets tired of you, I will still want you. As long as you serve me well, I will definitely treat you well!"

"I bother!"

Hearing the disgusting laughter of several people, Qi Yu's face suddenly darkened.

"How dare you covet the princess! I warn you not to touch a single hair of the princess, otherwise, the Third Prince will flatten your entire mountain!"
