What's wrong? She dared to ask what's wrong.
Xiao Junzhan was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. When he recovered, he saw the little girl looking at him with bulging eyes and worry in her eyes.
He pinched her cheek and said helplessly: "Don't act like this in the future."
How could a little girl be so brave?
"...Oh," Wei Hanzhang responded obediently, which was rare for him. Then he hesitated again, looking hesitant.
Seeing this, Xiao Junzhan thought he had scared her, so he quickly lowered his head and kissed her: "Don't be afraid, I don't blame you."
"No, I just want to ask," Wei Hanzhang touched his forehead that was kissed and whispered, "Isn't it possible that I've crushed you?"
…………
Deathly silence.
After a long while, in her uneasy look, Xiao Junzhan smiled and said, "I shouldn't be so useless, but just in case, Ranran, do you want to try it now?"
Wei Hanzhang's eyes widened and he readily agreed, "Sure, how do I try it?"
Xiao Junzhan: "..."
His smile gradually faded, and he looked seriously at the girl in his arms who was jumping for joy.
She was not afraid of him at all.
She doesn't resist his closeness, but rather likes it very much.
Even when she heard his words deliberately provoking her, she became bold and eager to try.
He couldn't even remember the last time the girl looked disgusted in his arms.
Wei Hanzhang felt the hand on her shoulder slowly tightening. She moved and heard the man's voice.
"Ran Ran, what did you want to tell me just now?"
"......?" Wei Hanzhang raised his eyebrows: "Don't you want to listen?"
"Good boy, stop teasing me." Xiao Junzhan held her face, rested his forehead against hers, and asked, "What did you want to tell me just now?"
His eyes were red, which made Wei Hanzhang's heart skip a beat. She climbed onto his neck with some distress: "You don't want to cry, do you? Don't. You are the Crown Prince who is above everyone else. Crying doesn't suit your status."
Her teasing was very blunt, but it made Xiao Junzhan love her very much. He lowered his head and kissed her lips, his voice trembling: "Your Highness the Crown Prince can cry, I also have seven emotions and six desires, Ranran, in fact, your sweetheart has always been me, right?"
"..." Wei Hanzhang was silent for a few breaths, snorted, and said: "No, didn't you conclude that I had transferred my affection to Chen Zishu?"
"Don't say those angry words. I've also been wrong sometimes." Xiao Junzhan lowered his eyes to look at her, put his hand on her lips, and coaxed: "Tell me, who do you like?"
Wei Hanzhang laughed when he heard this: "Will you believe what I say?"
Xiao Junzhan nodded slowly.
Wei Hanzhang said, "You, I always felt that I liked you, but you were extremely sensitive and suspicious, always thinking that I was not in love with Pipa and fell in love with someone else."
Thinking of this man getting angry for no reason and holding her back for her flirting on the couch, she frowned tightly, raised her eyes to look at his brows, and asked in confusion: "Why don't you want to believe that I just like you? Don't you have this little confidence, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Xiao Junzhan hugged the man silently, not knowing what he was thinking. After a long while, he opened his lips to accuse her, "You always think I'm old."
"!!!" Wei Hanzhang opened his eyes wide, "Stop accusing me, when have I ever disliked your age?"
She quickly recalled the past, and couldn't believe it: "At the very beginning, I just said a few words, but you kept it in mind?"
Xiao Junzhan didn't answer. He bent down and kissed her one last time, then sat up and started to get dressed.
After putting on his own clothes, he took hers and said, "Pack up, let's go back to the palace."
"Let's go back by ourselves," after tying her belt, Xiao Junzhan held her face and kissed her, "Although there are imperial doctors accompanying us in the camp, it's not as convenient as in the palace. We need to consult all the imperial doctors to see if your poison has been cured. If it has been cured, there should be a reaction in the mother poison."
The most important thing now is that no one knows when his little girl was cured of the poison. This place is not far from the capital. If something happened to Liu Wanning, the people guarding her should rush over to report.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince helped her put on her clothes, and called in Luzhu and Lulan to help her wash and do her hair.
After everything was packed up, the imperial sedan was ready.
Wei Hanzhang was about to get on the carriage when he saw someone riding a horse towards him in the distance.
After taking a closer look, who else could it be but Li Yue? Xiao Junzhan frowned slightly and asked him to stand up and answer.
Li Yue said: "Your Highness, Liu Wanning in the prison suddenly vomited blood and fainted last night. The guards immediately invited the imperial physician..."
He paused, his lips turning pale due to nervousness. "The imperial physician said that she had damaged her heart meridian for unknown reasons, and no medicine can cure her. She is now relying on the old ginseng to keep her alive. She can only last for three days at most. After three days, she will definitely die."
As soon as these words came out, Wei Hanzhang clearly felt the man beside him breathing stagnate, and his whole body tensed up.
Only then did she remember that in addition to the love Gu, she and Liu Wanning were also connected by the same life Gu.
On the carriage back to the palace, Xiao Junzhan put his arms around her waist, held her on his lap, and said nothing.
His eyes were gloomy and his expression was sinister and terrifying, which looked quite scary.
But when Wei Hanzhang saw it, he just felt heartbroken, because he was clearly in an extremely terrified state.
He was afraid that she would be buried with Liu Wanning.
Wei Hanzhang sniffed and reached out to tug at his collar: "Brother Boqian..."
Xiao Junzhan held the back of her head, pressed her into his arms, and said, "Ranran, be good and don't talk."
The voice was trembling to the bone.
Wei Hanzhang felt so distressed that she tilted her neck and kissed his chin: "Don't worry, okay? She might be lying to you to save her life. There is no life-same-life Gu at all. Didn't you say that life-same-life Gu needs natural treasures to feed it? The Anguo Mansion can't afford it, and the Gu would have starved to death long ago."
"Ran Ran..." The man who had always been graceful and composed lost all his composure at this moment. He buried his face in the neck of the man in his arms and said in a dull voice, "You can't leave me, understand?"
"Okay, I'll stay with you..." Her voice paused, and she could clearly feel the wetness on her neck, which was cold to the bone and made her heart sour.
She hugged his waist tightly, pinched it hard, and choked up, "You're really crying. She didn't even deceive me, so how could she deceive you into believing it? Do you believe me when I say that Liu Wanning definitely doesn't have the same fate Gu?"
"If you don't believe me, just wait. She will die in three days, but I will definitely be alive and well!"
"Don't cry, I won't die. I want to stay by your side forever. Just don't think I'm making a fuss."
"Hey!" She patted his head. "Brother Boqian... say something, Your Highness?... My dear, can you pay attention to me?"
"Say something!" She suppressed her heartache and yelled impatiently, "It's not over yet, is it? Can you please stop crying like a grown man? I'm not dead yet."
Unfortunately, all her chatter was of no use; the man with his head buried in her neck didn't move at all.
Only the cold water traces slid from the neck to the collarbone and flowed into the heart.
