Return of the Princess: The Rebirth of Lafayette

Eryu felt a little embarrassed when Grandma Wang looked at her, but she still answered bravely.

"Mother Wang, Ziwei told me personally, so it can still be false."

Grandma Wang didn't know what she was doing, but she just did what her master wanted to do.

"Princess, when are you going to go? We are going to leave soon, so we have to hurry up."

Eryu calculated the time in his mind, "Let's do it this afternoon. There is nothing to do anyway. Let's get ready to leave tomorrow."

Grandma Wang said nothing more and just let her make her own decision.

After the others left, Eryu called his personal maid over, handed her a letter, and warned her with a serious expression.

"Chuntao, be sure to hand this letter into the hands of the old man who feeds the horses in the front yard. Remember not to give it to anyone else."

Eryu himself dressed up and went to meet the boat for a while.

"Master Fang, I heard that your lady has an opinion about this princess, do you know?"

That's right, Eryu said this on purpose. If you want to trap the old fox, you must first mess up his position.

Fang Fangzhou scolded his idiot wife in his heart, but there was no flaw on his face. Instead, he humbly apologized to Eryu.

"Qinggege, my wife has little knowledge and speaks bluntly, which disturbs you. Please don't take it to heart."

However, Eryu didn't accept his trick and pointed it out directly, "You have to look at the identity and status of the other party. If Mr. Fang wants to go far, he still has to take care of this backyard."

Finally, Eryu burst out another big thunder and looked at Fangzhou Zhou playfully.

"Master Fang, I don't know if it's because of my poor eyesight. The agate gemstone I saw on one of your concubines early this morning seemed a bit familiar. The Queen Mother also has such a piece in her hand."

With a bang, Fang Zhou was stunned on the spot, his body was stiff and unable to move, and he explained in a stuttering voice.

"The princess is joking. There are no agate gems. I guess they are just fakes that my concubine bought at a street stall."

Eryu clicked her tongue, "This princess looks very real. The agate shines brightly in the sun. I heard that the Huijiang tribe paid tribute to the court three years ago. It seems to be the same model, you think it’s a coincidence or not.”

Fang Fangzhou was so frightened that he lost his mind. Once the news of his embezzlement of tributes was known to the emperor, the black gauze hat on his head would probably disappear, and it was even possible that the nine tribes would be implicated.

"Princess, I don't understand what you are talking about."

Seeing that his psychological defense had collapsed, Eryu secretly rejoiced, pressed the corners of his mouth, and said to himself.

"Smart people will understand. Mr. Fang has always been smart. This princess is going to visit the grave of Mingzhu Gege's mother this afternoon. You can make some arrangements. After all, Mingzhu Gege is the child of a woman whom the emperor loves deeply. She has more children than other princesses. It’s a bit of love, but you have to serve me carefully.”

After saying that, he left without giving Fang Zhou a chance to react, leaving Fang Zhou alone with a gloomy face and thinking hard.

At the inn, Xiao Jian didn't expect to receive Eryu's letter so soon. After reading it, he couldn't calm down.

Liu Qing sat up from the bed, "Xiao Jian, what does the letter say?"

Xiao Jian excitedly told Liu Qing the contents of the letter, "The princess said she would lure Fang Zhou to worship Ziwei's mother this afternoon. At that time, she would use too many people to avoid disturbing the dead souls. Everyone in the boat got away, and I stood by as her personal bodyguard, waiting for the opportunity. After the matter is completed, she will handle the follow-up."

Liu Qing was also beaming with joy, "Great! I didn't expect Xiao Yanzi's friends to be so helpful. Xiao Jian, can you do it alone? Do you need my help?"

Xiao Jian waved his hand, "No, it's no big deal to deal with Fang Zhou. You take good care of yourself. After I succeed, we will leave Shandong immediately."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news at the inn." Liu Qing is in good physical condition. But after drinking a few drinks and taking medicine, I almost recovered.

In the afternoon, Eryu wore plain clothes and a group of people went to Xia Yuhe's cemetery.

The moment Ziwei recognized the emperor, the tribesmen who had bullied Xia Yuhe immediately took advantage of the situation and moved her gravesite back to their tribe.

"Master Fang, why are you here too?" Eryu asked deliberately.

Xiao Jian's disguise was extremely ordinary. He stood next to Eryu, keeping his head lowered for fear of exposing himself.

Fang Fangzhou wiped the sweat from his head and flattered in a low voice, "The princess, with her golden body and jade body, has come to worship, so why should I not come?"

Eryu was not surprised at all that he would come. A smart person would understand it without saying anything.

"Ada, please go in with me to pay homage to Aunt Xia. The others are waiting outside. Master Fang, please come!"

Eryu raised his eyebrows and waved to Fangzhou, gesturing for him to come in.

Fang Fangzhou didn't know why, but suddenly he felt a little flustered and pounding.

"Princess, if I don't want to be demoted, I won't—"

Before he finished speaking, Eryu's light words shut him up.

"Corruption of tributes is a serious crime of decapitation. Mr. Fang, you must think carefully about it!"

A sharp look flashed in Fang Fangzhou's eyes. This damn princess has been sent away for marriage, yet she still dares to show off her power in front of him. Let me show you the power for a while first.

"Princess, be careful what you say."

Eryu glanced at him lightly, turned around and left, Xiao Jian followed closely. When they were alone on the road, Xiao Jian asked curiously.

"Princess, what is the tribute you just mentioned?"

Eryu took a breath and said, "Fang Fangzhou is very ambitious. I'm afraid he is not satisfied with my threat to him. I have already sent a letter to the capital about the tribute. Even if you don't succeed, he is not far from death." "

Finally, the two of them walked to Xia Yuhe's tomb. Eryu really admired this strange woman for risking her life for the sake of illusory love. She burned three sticks of incense and paid her respects.

"Aunt Xia, rest in peace. Ziwei has successfully recognized the emperor as his father, and the emperor has not forgotten you. You have always lived in his heart."

After a while, Fang Fangzhou came in followed by two followers, "Princess, why didn't you wait for me and came in alone?"

Eryu didn't say anything. She had given him too much face recently.

Fangzhou Zhou was not embarrassed. He stepped forward, lit a few sticks of incense and bowed respectfully.

Just when he lowered his head, Eryu suddenly exclaimed and fainted. Fangzhou's two followers were careless for a moment and all their attention was on Eryu.
