The charming legitimate daughter is reborn, addicted to the abstinent prince's pampering

Chapter 57: The plank road was built openly and secretly to Chencang, and Li Daitao was cheated?

Yong'an City, General Gu's Mansion.

The door of Gu Wangshu's room was open. She stood under the eaves in front of the door and let the cold wind pick up the snowflakes and sprinkle them on her cheeks.

Qinxinyuan, which had just been cleaned, was covered with a layer of white with less than a cup of tea. After a while, the color of the ground could no longer be seen, as if it had never been swept, and the sky and earth were covered with frost and snow.

"This snow came a little late. I didn't expect it to fall so quickly. It has been all day and night and there is no sign of stopping."

Qiu Chi sighed, with worry on his face.

"Miss, did you say that Shopkeeper Zhao has arrived at the border? Our soldiers..." Qiuchi's eyes suddenly turned red, thinking that the soldiers who endured the severe cold in the wind and snow would probably freeze to death in the winter snow.

Gu Wangshu looked at the snowflakes with an expressionless expression.

"Don't worry, shopkeeper Zhao will definitely arrive as scheduled." She seemed to be comforting Qiu Chi, but also seemed to be comforting herself.

Gu Wangshu was not a fortune teller, and she was not sure that Zhao Chengcheng would be able to deliver the winter clothes to the border. But she was certain of one thing, the mountains were blocked by heavy snow, and His Royal Highness would be back soon.

As she expected, Helian Jue was indeed on his way back with his troops.

The snow in the mountains was so thick that it covered the horses' hooves. Helianjue was riding on a horse, wearing a raccoon fur hat and a raccoon fur cloak that had already been dyed white by the snow. However, he was unaware and stared straight ahead with no expression on his face. Quite different from the gentle image of the past.

The sound of wheels rolling over the snow echoed in the empty snow forest.

Helian Ji was half a step behind Helian Jue on his horse, and he glanced at Helian Jue.

Helianjue's side face was as thin and cold as an ice sculpture, and his eyes could not see any other emotion except indifference.

This kind of demeanor shattered Helianji's inherent impression of him. Helianjue underwent earth-shaking changes overnight, losing his soft shell and revealing the spikes inside, which made people afraid to approach him.

Helianji thought of the mysterious howling of wolves in the mountains last night, with blood rising to the sky, and when he looked at Helianjue, he felt even more chilled all over.

No wonder the second emperor brother warned him not to underestimate Helian Jue. No wonder the second emperor brother never relaxed his vigilance towards Helian Jue. It turned out that Helian Jue was not a little sheep to be slaughtered, but a wolf in sheep's clothing.

He turned to look behind him.

When they arrived, there were nearly 200 soldiers, but now there were only two-thirds of the original number. The smaller number...all died in the mountains. Fear flashed in Helianji's eyes.

Helianjue tightened the reins and pressed the bridle, and walked slowly. The white mist he exhaled blurred his face, making it difficult to see clearly the changes in the expressions in his eyes.

Time goes back to the day we left the city.

On the first day they entered the forest, they started hunting.

Helianji followed Helianhuan's instructions and followed Helianjue without any slack.

A large number of informants installed by He Lianhuan and Concubine Wen also followed Helian Jue closely, while the remaining soldiers were meticulously looking for prey with bows and arrows in hand.

In order to deceive others, Helian Jue carried out his incompetence to the end.

When encountering small beasts with weak attack power such as hares and foxes, they actively set up bows and fire arrows. If they encounter wild boars and wild wolves, they will be scared to death and drive their horses back to hide behind Helianji and the eyeliner.

This behavior was often looked down upon by Helianji, and all the spies were also fooled.

They really didn't understand what their master was thinking and why he wanted them to spy on such an idiot prince.

He Lianjue had been like this for ten days in a row, and Xizuo was convinced that he was a real waste.

But on the tenth night after they left the city, Helianjue's behavior became strange.

A low-key person who suddenly stops being low-key one day is the most eye-catching person.

Helian Jue continues to deepen Xizuo's understanding of his incompetence through his own actions. Xizuo has become accustomed to his timidity and cowardice. Once he makes an action that is not in line with his own character, it will be infinitely magnified in Xizuo's eyes.

Helian Jue deliberately broke the detailed understanding and successfully aroused their suspicion.

That night, Helianjue quietly opened the door a crack and looked out from the inside. When he noticed that there was deathly silence outside, he cautiously walked out of the room, quickly closed the door and hid in the darkness.

The sneaky behavior was enough to arouse suspicion, and the evidence that allowed Xizuo to confirm his doubts was clearly placed in Helianjue's room.

The candles in his room were brightly lit, and under the light of the candles, a black man's figure was reflected motionlessly on the window paper.

Xizuo had just seen Lord Helian leave the room with his own eyes, so why was there his figure on the window paper?Isn’t this 300 taels of silver without money here?

From this, it can be determined that the figure on the window paper should be the clothes deliberately placed by Helian Jue in order to attract people's attention and make them think that he has always been in the room and never left. Hosaku realized that Helian Jue must have done something wrong. Tell-tale secrets.

It turns out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's weakness and incompetence all along was just a disguise. Thinking that he had confused them, he finally lost his patience and took action.

Xi Zuo stared closely at Helianjue and saw him walking around from the front yard to the back yard, standing at the closed corner door and looking around. When he didn't find anyone, he let out a few rhythmic bird calls.

Hearing the chirping of birds, the eyes of the craftsmen widened for a moment, and the boss raised his heart and held his breath.

Who is Helianjue passing the code to?

What message do you want to convey?

To be so careful with him, the message must be very important.

Xizuo did not dare to take it lightly.

Soon they saw the corner door being slowly opened by Lord Helian. He took something out of his arms and was about to pass it out through the crack in the door.

At this moment, someone stepped on a dead branch, and a crisp "click" sound was particularly abrupt in the silent night.

The craftsmen felt a thump in their hearts and cursed the person who stepped on the dead branch as a fool.

Seeing that Helian Jue was about to meet with the contact person, but the moment he heard the branches being trampled, he immediately retracted his hand, put the things in his arms again, and left through the corner door at an extremely fast speed.

Xizuo gritted his teeth in hatred, someone quickly rushed over, opened the corner door, and found that there was no one outside.

Some details followed Lord Helian back to his courtyard.

When Helianjue returned to his room, he immediately blew out the candles and went to bed, and the whole courtyard returned to calm.

The craftsmen were so upset that they stayed outside the courtyard for a full hour without seeing Lord Helian come out again.

Helian Jue lay on the bed and laughed silently.

The series of actions just now were all directed and performed by him, in order to alert others and attract attention.

Only in this way can he mobilize all the details to successfully carry out the next plan of luring the snake out of the hole.

Only by luring all the snakes out of their holes can they be caught in one fell swoop.

On the second day, Helian Jue once again quietly left the door and walked around to the backyard in the middle of the night just like last night.

With the lessons learned yesterday, the craftsmen will be extra careful tonight.

I thought Helianjue would use bird calls to send signals like he did last night, but Helianjue didn't do that tonight.

He opened the corner door without hesitation and stepped out.

Seeing this, the craftsmen quickly chased after him.
