The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

Jiang Renhe and Ouyang Qingfeng followed the emperor's order and rushed back to Beijing. They rode non-stop, day and night, hoping to return to the prosperous capital as soon as possible.

However, just as they were galloping through a dense forest, they suddenly heard the sound of fierce fighting coming from the front.

Jiang Renhe pulled the reins of his horse, frowning, "There's a fight ahead, and it sounds like there's more than one person."

Ouyang Qingfeng's eyes fixed, and he listened for a moment. "It just so happens that I haven't encountered anything interesting along the way, why not go over and take a look?"

Jiang Renhe nodded, rode his horse forward, and headed straight towards the direction where the fighting sound came from.

The two men passed through a forest and suddenly saw a clear view in front of them. They saw several men in black besieging a woman. The woman was agile and had sharp swordsmanship, but she was obviously outnumbered and had difficulty fighting.

Jiang Renhe took a closer look and was immediately shocked, "It's Pepe!"

Jiang Peipei's clothes were stained with blood at this moment, and she was obviously injured, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted, dealing with the man in black.

Jiang Renhe was extremely anxious and immediately drew his sword to rush over to help. However, Ouyang Qingfeng held him back and whispered, "Don't be impulsive! The identities of these men in black are unknown. It may be dangerous if you act rashly!"

Jiang Renhe shook off his hand and said angrily, "That's my sister! How can I just sit there and do nothing?"

At this moment, Jiang Peipei was hit on the shoulder by a man in black. She staggered back and almost fell. Jiang Renhe could no longer hold back and shouted, "Do it!"

Before he finished speaking, he leaped out, his sword gleaming like a rainbow, and went straight for the man in black. Seeing this, Ouyang Qingfeng followed closely behind, swinging his sword to join the battle.

The men in black obviously did not expect someone to suddenly attack them, and were caught off guard. Jiang Renhe's swordsmanship was sharp and deadly, and he forced the two men in black to retreat in an instant. Ouyang Qingfeng protected Jiang Peipei and blocked several fatal attacks for her.

"Pepe, are you okay?" Jiang Renhe asked anxiously while fighting with the man in black.

Jiang Peipei gritted her teeth, stood up straight, and shook her head in surprise, "Brother, you are back?!"

"The Emperor and his men will be here soon."

When the men in black heard this and realized that the situation was not good, one of them blew a whistle, and the others immediately stopped and quickly retreated into the forest, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Renhe wanted to chase him, but was stopped by Ouyang Qingfeng, "Don't chase him, go and see your sister instead."

Jiang Renhe then stopped, turned around and supported Jiang Peipei, and asked with concern: "Pepei, why are you here? Who are these men in black?"

Jiang Peipei took off the bloodstained coat directly, revealing the clean lavender suit underneath, which was spotless and not damaged at all.

Jiang Renhe was stunned, "You, you..."

"I'm not hurt!" Jiang Peipei laughed, "I was just playing with those kids on my cousin's orders."

Ouyang Qingfeng looked displeased, "How could Jixiang be so reckless and let a woman like you take such a risk?"

"I volunteered!" Jiang Peipei smiled.

"Who are those people?"

"It should be Guo Ziyi's people."

"Guo Ziyi?!" Jiang Renhe and Ouyang Qingfeng asked at the same time.

"Don't you know about Guo Ziyi's rebellion? The capital has been in turmoil for a long time!"

Jiang Renhe and Ouyang Qingfeng looked at each other, and they moved in unison, rushing towards the direction where those in black were fleeing!

"Hey, wait for me!" Jiang Peipei quickly followed.

In the woods, several men in black were running breathlessly. One of them looked at his tired companion and asked, "What did they mean when they said the emperor would be here soon?"

"What else could it mean? The Emperor has returned to the capital."

"Does that mean there's nothing going on in the northwest?!"

All the men in black were startled when they heard this, and then they looked at each other with worry in their eyes.

The man in black who spoke at the beginning said, "If there is no trouble in the northwest, then Lord Guo will have no hope at all, right?"

"What should we do? Should we continue to work for him?" asked another man in black.

"What can we do? The man is dead. In my opinion, we should just take the money and disappear without a trace, and never mention him again!"

"Yes, Prince Duan is in prison now. Even if we fight to the death, I'm afraid we won't be able to change the dynasty."

As they spoke, everyone looked towards the man in black who spoke first.

The man in black who spoke first frowned, and seemed unable to make up his mind for a moment.

"Brother, we can't hesitate any longer. If the emperor really returns to the capital, he will probably kill us all! Why don't we disappear on the spot before they find us?"

After being persuaded by everyone, the man in black who spoke first became hesitant.

One of the men in black could no longer hold his temper. He took out a bundle from the weeds nearby and took out a set of ordinary people's clothes from it.

"If you insist on making an enemy of the emperor, then I have no choice but to give up my companionship." After saying this, he took the clothes and went behind a big tree.

The man in black who spoke for the first time was still hesitating when he saw his companion, who had changed his clothes, being escorted out from behind a tree.

The person who was holding her was the woman who had just fought with them, Jiang Peipei.

"You, you!" Everyone looked at Jiang Peipei in shock.

Jiang Peipei glanced at the man beside her with disdain, "You guys are not eunuchs like him, are you?!"

All the men in black were stunned and immediately drew their swords to be on guard.

"Don't move, don't move, or I'll kill him with one blow!" Jiang Peipei pressed the dagger in her hand against the eunuch's neck, "Come on, tie yourselves up, I can spare your lives, but if you dare to resist, you won't see the sun tomorrow."

After hearing this, several men in black looked at their companions.

The man in black who didn't want to be the first to speak looked stern and glared at his companions viciously, "Don't listen to her, come on~!"

His voice was icy cold and carried an unquestionable command. Upon hearing this, the other men in black immediately put aside their hesitation, drew their weapons, and approached Jiang Peipei, Jiang Renhe and the others.

Jiang Renhe clenched the sword in his hand, his eyes were sharp, and he whispered to Ouyang Qingfeng beside him: "It seems that these people will not give up easily, we have to deal with them carefully."

Ouyang Qingfeng nodded, his expression solemn, "How did your sister get involved with these people?"

Jiang Peipei, who was standing by, couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. "They fell into the trap!"

Jiang Renhe looked at Jiang Peipei in confusion.

Jiang Peipei no longer concealed the truth and looked at the men in black opposite her. "Guo Ziyi secretly gathered most of the eunuchs in the palace to rebel. After being shot dead by my cousin in the main hall, my cousin ordered Lord Situ and King Annan to thoroughly investigate Guo Ziyi's followers. Although many were found in the palace, my cousin was worried that there were still hidden accomplices in and outside the capital, so she devised a plan with me."

"What plan?" Jiang Renhe asked.

"Of course, they asked me to take a fake letter and pretend to go to the northwest to deliver it to the emperor. As a result, these people really fell into the trap and followed me all the way."

Ouyang Qingfeng understood, "The Queen will not let you go to the northwest alone, right?"

Jiang Peipei laughed again, "Lord Situ arranged the black-armored soldiers."

When the men in black heard this, they completely lost their fighting spirit. They didn't expect that the letter they were chasing Jiang Peipei all the way to snatch from her hand was just a bait to lure them.
