Xiao Junzhan looked at her quietly and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm not angry with you. I blame myself. If someone dares to do something to you, it's because I'm incompetent."

"I'm sorry..." Wei Hanzhang hugged him, "I'm sorry for making you so worried."

"My silly girl, it's not your fault that you were in danger in my place." Xiao Junzhan closed his eyes slightly, hiding his murderous intent, and said in a gentle voice: "If we can't find out the cause of this matter, then anyone, anything, or anything that has the right to touch the clothes will have to pay the price. Let's start with the Jinyi Pavilion."

Wei Hanzhang hesitated and asked, "...Will this be considered as killing innocent people indiscriminately?"

"There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and there is no clue that cannot be found. If there is, it is because someone is deliberately helping to cover it up." Xiao Junzhan said in a calm voice: "If you really want to help cover it up, then you should all die for the person behind the scenes."

This is real anger. All gentle means are put aside and severe punishment is used.

I hope the Jinyi Pavilion can find some clues, otherwise... the entire Wei Mansion will have to be cleaned up.

After all, it was the servants of the Wei family who took the clothes, including Luzhu and Lulan who packed the clothes, neither of them could escape responsibility.

Even Jiang, who made custom clothes for her, had touched her clothes.

...Isn’t this going to wipe out the Wei family altogether?

Wei Hanzhang pursed her lips and looked at him, just in time to meet his vulnerable gaze.

My heart softened immediately, and I leaned over and said, "Brother, do you want to kiss me again? I'll give it to you now."

"Weren't you feeling very aggrieved just now?" Xiao Junzhan kissed her nose helplessly, helped her put her clothes in order bit by bit, and said, "Wear pajamas properly in the future. It's not decent to do this."

"..." Wei Hanzhang was silent for a moment, then whispered, "I was getting ready to go to sleep, but I didn't expect you to come over so late."

The most important thing is...he reached out and touched her so rudely.

He has taken all the advantages, but he is still acting like a good kid.

"Didn't you expect me to come?" Xiao Junzhan was very calm. He leaned over and picked the person up, then walked towards the bed and said, "Ran Ran, you really scared me this time."

...So he hugged her and kissed and touched her? Wei Hanzhang kept complaining in his mind, but he looked obedient and didn't say anything.

Unfortunately, all those little thoughts were seen by Xiao Junzhan.

After putting the little girl on the couch, he also lay down and coaxed her, "Ran Ran, are you scared? Can I sleep here with you?"

"Scared." Wei Hanzhang hugged him gently, resting her head on his shoulder, and honestly admitted: "I am afraid of snakes. Today a snake almost fell on my head. If Chen Zishu hadn't pulled me away, I would have been scared to death."

Thinking of those densely packed mollusks, Wei Hanzhang got goose bumps on her arms again. She tightened her arms and buried her face in his neck. "It's really scary."

I don’t know who could come up with such a vicious plan. Although not every snake is poisonous, even if they are non-venomous, they can scare you to death if they crawl towards you in dense groups.

How many girls who are kept in seclusion are not afraid of snakes? The idea is that even if the bite doesn't kill her, she will be scared to death, right?

It will really leave a lifelong shadow! Xiao Junzhan put one hand around the girl's shoulders and patted her gently with the other hand to comfort her, without saying a word.

"By the way," Wei Hanzhang carefully raised his head from his neck and asked, "Why didn't those secret guards come out?"

She was so frightened that she rolled over and crawled on the ground, but none of the four secret guards showed up.

"They did take action, but no one noticed." Xiao Junzhan said softly, "As for not showing up, it's because it's best not to expose the existence of the secret guards."

The Dark Guard was founded by the founding emperor of the dynasty. From the day it was founded, it has been a sharp blade in the hands of every emperor.

The duty of the secret guards is not only to protect their master, but more importantly, to uncover the unknown secrets of the court for the emperor. In such a vast territory, there are members of the secret guard department in every state and county.

Because it was so precious, no one could have imagined that a girl like Wei Hanzhang would have secret guards following her, not even Wei Heng and Jiang Shi knew about it.

Therefore, unless it is a critical moment, their presence should be concealed as much as possible.

This is the last defensive trump card Xiao Junzhan set for Wei Hanzhang.

She was the apple of his eye, so he could never be too careful.

Wei Hanzhang himself did not know the details, but he had heard of the great reputation of the Dark Guard Division, and he had a general idea of ​​how precious a few female dark guards were.

The two hugged each other quietly, neither speaking.

The person next to him smelled pleasant, and listening to his steady heartbeat, Wei Hanzhang fell asleep peacefully.

Noticing that the breathing around her neck was gradually becoming longer and more regular, Xiao Junzhan pulled the little girl's face out and looked down at her peaceful sleeping face.

He stretched out his hand, and slowly slid it from her brow to her cheek, then to her ear, and then slowly stroked her delicate earlobe, causing her shoulders to shrink slightly.

Xiao Junzhan stopped and suddenly smiled. He lowered his head and kissed her slightly pouting lips, "...Ranran."

...How could there be such a lovable girl?

There was a faint sound of footsteps outside the door. Xiao Junzhan stood up, tucked in the quilt for the girl on the couch, tidied his clothes, and walked out.

Xie Li was waiting at the steps outside the hall.

Seeing him come out, he stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Greetings, Your Highness."

Xiao Junzhan didn't say anything. He walked down the stairs in a few steps. Ning Hai, who was outside the room, closed the door quietly and glanced at Luzhu and Lulan, signaling them to guard the room well.

The three of them walked out of Qixiang Palace. Xiao Junzhan paused, turned around and lowered his eyes and asked, "How is it?"

Xie Li bowed and said, "I have verified that the snakes in the back garden today were not released maliciously by someone, but were originally near the palace and were lured here by the powder."

Xiao Junzhan asked, "With so many snakes coming over, didn't any guard notice?"

"We just arrived at the palace today, and the guards haven't been arranged yet. Plus, the back garden in the inner city is where the women live, so it's not easy for the guards to..." Xie Li paused, and then reported: "The soldiers guarding the back garden and the ministers in charge have been checked, and there will be no chance of being caught."

"It seems that this insect-attracting powder is really effective," Xiao Junzhan said calmly, "but just taking a walk outside has attracted so many snakes to appear."

Xie Li bowed deeply and said cautiously: "I have asked several maids in Qixiang Palace. The two girls decided to go to the back garden on a whim. It's really fortunate that if they stayed in the palace and waited until dark..."

Stay in the palace... until dark.

Xiao Junzhan's expression turned cold.

Given the efficacy of the insect-attracting powder, I'm afraid there will be snakes in Ran Ran's room, on the beams, windows, couches, rocking chairs, and all visible and invisible places.

He might even climb into bed with his little girl while she was asleep.
