Say it, what can I do for you?” The Crown Prince glanced at Zong Zhengqing, but he didn't have a trace of a smile on his face.
”Did you rescue a little girl from the village where you were silenced?” Although he was asking the crown prince, Zongzheng Qing's voice did not contain the slightest hint of a doubt.
A hint of doubt flashed past the crown prince's eyes as he looked at Zongzheng Qing.
”Why do you ask?”
”I need you to help me cheat that girl out.” Zongzheng Qing did not directly answer the crown prince's question.
”Did you kill the people from that village?” The Crown Prince narrowed his eyes slightly and asked with a questioning tone in his voice.
”Crown Prince, don't casually frame these people as good people. I didn't kill those people.” Zongzheng Qing's expression was calm as he spoke, a dark light flashed past his eyes, he truly did not do anything, it was his subordinates who did it.
The Crown Prince asked cautiously, ”What are you planning to do with that girl?” First, they wanted to silence her, and now, they were plotting against that little girl. What were they planning to do?
”This is my Other Shore Palace's own matter, it's best if Your Highness does not interfere.” Zongzheng Qing naturally would not tell the crown prince the reason for his actions.
The Crown Prince thought for a moment before speaking, ”Fine, I promise you, but you must promise me as well. Don't come look for me again after this is over.”
”Tomorrow, I will send someone to contact His Highness. At that time, Your Highness only needs to cooperate. If this matter is successful, everything that happened before will naturally be written off.” With that, Zongzheng Qing left the crown prince's house.
When Mo Ranran and Niu Niu passed by the Crown Prince's house, Zongzheng Qing, who was just about to leave, met him.
Mo Ranran only saw a shadow coming out from the crown prince's house. Just as she was about to attack, Niu Niu seemed to have seen something scary and screamed, she released her hand and ran behind.
Mo Ranran was startled by the sudden turn of events, he missed his best opportunity to stop them and allowed the black clothed man to escape.
She could only chase after Niu Niu first, but after hesitating for a moment, Niu Niu had already ran far away. When she finally caught up, she saw Zhang Heng use his hand to cut Niu Niu's head off.
Zhang Heng looked at Mo Ranran, and asked puzzledly: ”What happened to her? Why did you suddenly go crazy? ”
It was still fine yesterday, why did it suddenly go out of control today?
Mo Ranran gasped for breath and said softly, ”Just now, there was a black-clothed person who came out from the crown prince's room. She might have thought that the black-clothed person in the village had been provoked.”
”Did Niuniu grab your hand?” Out of the corner of his eyes, Mo Ranran saw the scratch on his arm.
Zhang Heng shook his hands, and used his sleeves to cover the scratches on his arms.
”I accidentally cut this wound.”
Mo Ranran detected Zhang Heng's movements, her clear eyes slightly narrowed, and slowly spoke: ”I want to go back to my room, can you send us there?”
”Alright.” Since Mo Ranran had already spoken, Zhang Heng naturally would not reject.
The corner of Mo Ranran's mouth raised slightly, wanting to take the girl from Zhang Heng's hands, but Zhang Heng dodged it.
”Let me hold her.” Although Niu Niu was a little girl, she was not light either. He did not want Mo Ranran to be affected.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Mo Ranran pushed open the door and placed Niu Niu on the bed.
”I've brought the person here for you. I'll be leaving first.” Carrying Niu Niu on the way, Zhang Heng was not tired at all, only that his breathing was a little hurried.
Mo Ranran picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea for Zhang Heng and passed it to him, ”Go slowly, drink a cup of tea first.”
Zhang Heng looked at the teacup in front of him, and was stunned. When he received the teacup, his hand touched the back of Mo Ranran's hand, and his face slightly flushed red.
Mo Ranran did not notice anything wrong with Zhang Heng. Seeing that he had received the tea, she turned around and took out the medicine box from the cabinet, and placed it on the table. Mo Ranran slowly opened his mouth: ”Reveal your arm, I'll help you clean your wound.”
Zhang Heng said, a little embarrassed: ”It's just a small wound, there's no need to bandage it, it'll be scabbed tomorrow.”
In the army camp, he was often injured, and this wound didn't even need to be bandaged. It would naturally heal tomorrow.
Mo Ranran glanced at his wound that was still bleeding, and said: ”Let me treat your blood.”
Seeing that he could not push it away, Zhang Heng revealed his arm.
Seeing Zhang Heng's concave wound, Mo Ranran was startled. She thought that Niu Niu had only scratched Zhang Heng's arm, but she never thought that her actions would be so ruthless.
Mo Ranran sighed and started to treat the wounds on his arm.
Zhang Heng looked at Mo Ranran who had his head lowered and was helping him clean his wound, he had never come into contact with her so close, and upon thinking about it, his calm heart started beating even faster, and his face flushed red, as though he had returned back to the elegant and bashful Zhang Heng.
Just at this moment, the door to the room was pushed open. Zhang Heng raised his head and looked at Mo Feiye's ice-cold eyes.
Zhang Heng immediately retracted his hand, and stood up, ”General Mo!”
Mo Ranran looked at Zhang Heng who suddenly stood up, and frowned.
”Your wounds haven't been cleaned up yet.”
”Sit down.” Hearing Mo Ranran's words, Mo Feiye's pupils slightly congealed, and he slowly walked to the front of Mo Ranran and sat down, looking at him with suppressed eyes.
