As night fell and the red candle was at its highest point, the gentle candlelight outlined Xiao Zhan's clear-edged face.
"Mistress." A figure silently appeared from within the shadows and knelt down respectfully in front of Xiao Zhan.
The clothes of the man on the bed were loose, and his chest was revealed from his collar in a crooked fashion. He exuded a lazy aura. His gaze was still fixed on the table in front of him, as he casually wrote on the Xuan paper with a brush, "Speak."
"Jiang Chenbi's personal maidservant took a letter and secretly left the Mu's Mansion after dinner to look for Han Shengyuan. As for the contents of the letter, we have yet to find out. "
The man above did not speak. Mo kept his head bowed in a respectful posture. Right after writing the letter, he handed it over to Dong Ping. They simply did not have the chance to interfere.
Xiao Zhan wantonly waved his hand and made the last stroke. Only then did he raise his head to look at Mo, "This king knows. Keep an eye on them, and report back to me whenever there is the slightest movement. "
"Yes." After silently bowing, he stood up and once again disappeared into the shadows.
Xiao Zhan stared fixedly at the white piece of paper on the table, only to see a beautiful figure outlined with a black brush. There was an almost imperceptible emotion in every line.
If it wasn't for the fact that it had already been engraved in his heart, how could he have been able to draw such an image of that man so easily without even seeing him with his own eyes?
Xiao Zhan stared at the portrait for a long time, then waved his sleeves and left the side of the table.
Rain Listening House.
"Prince?" Qing Luan was shocked when she saw Xiao Zhan standing at the door. Why is Third Prince here so late?
Xiao Zhan nodded to her, and did not say much, only raising his leg to walk towards the main hall. Mu Pingting was sitting on the desk reading an ancient book, and when she saw Xiao Zhan's figure, she could not help but be slightly startled: "Xiao Zhan?"
Why is he here? Moreover, it was rare to see him entering through the main entrance at this point. In the past, what day didn't he come in by flipping over windows?
"Dong Ping took the letter that Jiang Chenbi wrote and ran out of the palace. It was said that she was even heading in the direction of the Han Residence." Xiao Zhan did not beat around the bush and directly said, "Pingting, when two ants are connected together, we still need to be more careful."
Mu Pingting was slightly startled, and was unable to react to his words. Had he come all this way just to tell her?
"Why is the Prince so concerned about my private affairs?" This was not in line with Xiao Zhan's style at all. He had always been aloof and aloof, not caring about his own matters.
Moreover, if he found that he wanted to warn her, he could just say it out loud tomorrow morning. Why would he need to gather so many people to warn her?
"This King only feels that it's not easy to find living herbs." Xiao Zhan's gaze swept across the scrolls on the table in front of Mu Pingting. A peculiar emotion seemed to once again surge in his heart, "This king still doesn't want you to die too early."
All of the emotions that Mu Pingting had kindly reminded her earlier, vanished at this moment. She only felt that she had fed the dog with gratitude. She knew she wouldn't hear anything good from this man's mouth.
"Pingting, this king is serious." Xiao Zhan was a little displeased with the uncontrollable emotion at the bottom of his heart, and could only use other emotions to suppress it. The smile on his face became more and more carefree, "If you die too early, this king will be extremely regretful."
Mu Pingting glared at Xiao Zhan fiercely. Every word that came out of Xiao Zhan's mouth was always different, causing her to feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Your Highness, my life is still tough. You don't have to curse me like that! " Would he die if he said something nice? Would he only let her go after he angered her to death?
"Pingting, you must have misunderstood this duke's intentions." Xiao Zhan laughed even more innocently, "This king only feels that with your intelligence, if I didn't remind you, you probably wouldn't have lived past a few moves from Han Shengyuan and Jiang Chenbi."
Mu Pingting clenched her teeth, what exactly did this Xiao Zhan mean? Did he come here in the middle of the night just to make her angry?
"Your highness is right, but I heard that people with low IQ are contagious. "Your highness, it's better to get close to me, otherwise you might be infected by my low IQ!" Mu Pingting stood up, and actually pushed Xiao Zhan out of the room.
Xiao Zhan did not care about his rude behaviour, and the smile on his face became even wider. Mu Pingting looked at this shameless man and a feeling of powerlessness emerged in his heart.
No matter how she felt, no matter what kind of behavior it was, it would be useless in front of Xiao Zhan, as it would not affect him in the slightest.
"Your Highness, it is already late at night. You should rest early!" As Mu Pingting spoke, she closed the door in front of Xiao Zhan, releasing the anger in her heart.
Qing Luan stood not far away, staring at this scene with his mouth agape. Miss is too valiant now. This was after all, a Third Prince! Aren't you afraid that Miss will attract the Emperor's wrath?
Xiao Zhan, on the other hand, was not too concerned about this. With a smile, he left the Rain Listening House. The moment he stepped into the Biluo House, he smelled an extremely strange fragrance drifting in the air.
The fragrance gave him an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
"Silence." Xiao Zhan's expression turned cold, and the smile on his face immediately disappeared without a trace.
"Mistress, what do you need me for?" Mo immediately appeared in front of Xiao Zhan. He took a whiff of the smell in the air and quickly realized that something was wrong.
"Just now, when I was leaving, did anyone come to this place?" Xiao Zhan surveyed the room, but he did not see anyone around. However, the extremely rich fragrance still lingered at the tip of her nose.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Reporting to Your Highness, Miss Jiang entered the house earlier, but he left very quickly."
Xiao Zhan nodded, and indicated for Mo Xie to leave the place. Seeing that Xiao Zhan did not blame him for neglecting his duty, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and flew away into the darkness.
Xiao Zhan took another look around the house, and other than the strange incense, he did not see anything wrong with it, and his heart was at ease.
He took a simple bath and was about to go to bed. However, he discovered that there was a woman who was wearing thin and exposed clothes lying upright on his bed!
The silky, water-like quilt was currently covering the most important parts of the woman's body. However, it was not a tight cover, causing those parts to be faintly discernible, making them appear even more alluring.
"Miss Jiang, why are you here?" Xiao Zhan squinted and at this moment, his body began to emit a strong killing intent.
"My prince, Chenbi has been waiting for you here for a long time!" Jiang Chenbi said, and straightened her body. Following her actions, the blanket fell down, revealing an endless amount of spring sunshine.
