Ji Yannuo smiled and said: "There are countless wild beasts in the mountains and forests, and the harvest obtained from hunting in these two days is only two-tenths."
At this moment, Eunuch Xu hurried in from outside, holding a letter in his hand: "Your Highness, someone dropped a secret letter at the door of our courtyard."
Ji Yannuo and Ye Fuxun's expressions changed at the same time.
The two opened the letter and took a look——
Sure enough, it was an anonymous letter sent by Princess Yongle.
The letter mentioned that the former prince had left a relic. If Ji Yannuo was interested, he could go to a cave alone to check it out tonight.
And he drew a map of where the cave is.
Princess Yongle can’t wait so much?
It’s only the second day of the official hunt, is it about to see the real chapter?
The corner of Ji Yannuo's mouth twitched, and his eyes suddenly froze when he looked at the letter, and a chill shot out.
"Your Highness, shall we go there at midnight tonight?" Ye Fuxun asked.
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time." Ji Yannuo looked at her, "It's just that, Ah Xun, it will be safer for you to stay in the camp."
Although Ji Yannuo already knew the layout of the cave, and had made sufficient manpower preparations for it, it was not clear whether Princess Yongle had more gunpowder, and the risk factor was difficult to estimate.
Ji Yannuo was naturally unwilling to put Ye Fulun in danger.
However, Ye Fuxun thought for a while and responded: "Your Highness, I am worried that Princess Yongle has other methods. Although I am not as skilled as you, I am now quite proficient in poison techniques.
I also have a lot of powerful poison recipes on hand, which may be able to help at a critical moment."
Ji Yannuo was amused by Ye Fuxun's righteous face, pinched the tip of her nose and said: "Since Ah Xun is so powerful, then let's go with him. But Ah Xun doesn't want to go into the cave with me.
Wait there at the tree house, okay?"
"OK."
After dinner, the two took a walk together in the garden in front of the courtyard.
It was too early, so I simply practiced marrow washing again in the yard where Ji Yannuo lived.
Ye Fuxun has now learned all the second level of marrow cleansing. Accompanied by Ji Yannuo, he practiced for half an hour. He also took a shower and had a midnight snack before the two quietly left in the night.
Camp.
Tonight, the moonlight flickered. Sometimes it hid in the clouds, leaving only the stars to cast a hazy light. Sometimes it poked its face out of the clouds, dragging its hurried figure along the ground for a long time.
They left half an hour earlier than midnight.
Along the way, you can hear the occasional sound of birds chirping and insects chirping.
If Ji Yannuo hadn't whispered to Ye Fuxun that these sounds were reminders from people and horses hidden in the mountains and forests, Ye Fuxun would have thought they were real birds and insects.
"Princess Yongle's people haven't arrived yet." Ji Yannuo sent Ye Fuxun to the tree house. "Master, go over now. Ah Xun must remember not to enter the cave, and if there is danger, escape as soon as possible."
Ye Fuxun didn't want Ji Yannuo to worry, so he nodded vigorously in agreement.
Ji Yannuo kissed her on the lips, turned around and leapt towards the cave.
It was extremely quiet in front of the cave.
Ji Yannuo pretended to be here for the first time, looked around and even explored the cave.
"The prince came as promised."
Princess Yongle laughed before anyone came, and soon she led the two guards into the cave. Looking at the lonely Ji Yannuo, she raised her red lips and said, "I have often heard that the former prince and his brother have a very close relationship.
Now it seems that is indeed the case.”
"Princess Yongle?" Ji Yannuo looked over pretending to be confused, "How could it be you?"
"Why can't it be me?" Princess Yongle crossed her arms, "I witnessed the death of the late prince with my own eyes back then. Doesn't the prince not want to know the true situation at that time?"
Ji Yannuo pretended to be shocked: "What did you say? What happened back then?"
"Prince, don't worry." Princess Yongle sighed suddenly, "As your aunt, I have always loved and cared for the late prince. Seeing that he died in vain, I am also sad."
"Back then, the late prince left some relics in my hands. I thought that you two had a deep brotherhood, and maybe the prince wanted to see the former prince's relics."
"Where is the relic you mentioned?" Ji Yannuo stepped forward excitedly and asked urgently.
Seeing Ji Yannuo taking the bait, Princess Yongle twitched her lips: "When the late prince passed away, I was so sad that I buried the late prince's relics in the cave. That's why I will invite the prince over tonight to remember him together."
.”
She walked to the place where the wooden box had been buried: "If I remember correctly, it should be buried here."
After saying this, she turned to look at the two guards behind her, "Why don't you go dig out the former prince's relics and show them to the prince."
Two guards stepped forward in response and soon dug out a wooden box.
Princess Yongle knelt down, brushed the dust on the wooden box with her hand, waved to Ji Yannuo and said, "Prince, come and take a look."
Ji Yannuo stepped forward and squatted down.
As Princess Yongle opened the wooden box, several thin books were revealed inside.
"These books were the books that the late Crown Prince loved to read during his lifetime," Princess Yongle sighed with emotion. "The former Crown Prince is gentle and elegant, and he has thousands of poems and books in his chest. It's a pity..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw Ji Yannuo reaching out and picking up the book.
Ji Yannuo moved slowly, and the thin books seemed as heavy as Mount Tai in his hands.
When Princess Yongle saw his hand touching the book, a proud smile appeared on her lips.
What a similar scene.
That year, the late prince also picked up Ji Yannuo's belongings that she had prepared in advance in this cave.
His expression and movements are almost the same as Ji Yannuo's today.
They are truly brothers.
Just like before, after one stick of incense, Ji Yannuo will surely be like the former prince, spitting out black blood and dying!
Princess Yongle stood up with a smile, signaled the two guards to retreat outside the cave, and slowly walked to the gunpowder primer and stood there.
"Does the prince know how the previous prince died?"
Her voice lingered and swirled in the cave, like a ghost crawling out of hell, it was so terrifying for no reason.
Ji Yannuo put the book in his arms, stood up and faced Princess Yongle, with a smile on his lips.
His smile did not reach his eyes, because his eyes shone like ice that would never melt for thousands of years in a very cold place.
"Is the prince's limbs weak now? His whole body cannot be controlled. It is even very difficult for him to even take a step?"
Princess Yongle looked at Ji Yannuo proudly.
Ji Yannuo covered his chest with one hand, his eyes moved slightly and asked, "Why did the princess say this?"
"Haha! Because you were poisoned!" Princess Yongle laughed, "The poison you were poisoned is the same as the poison that was poisoned by the former prince."
"So it's you?" Although he had expected it and heard it with his own ears, Ji Yannuo still felt quite shocked, "Why did you want to hurt the emperor's brother?"
