There was a small cut on Shen Ningning's right earlobe, and two or three drops of blood oozed out.

 On the skin that is as white as jade, the red color is extremely conspicuous.

 Perhaps the bow string was broken just now and his ear was accidentally cut.

Shen Ningning lowered her head, with a gloomy expression on her face, as if she was deeply hit.

 Hateful spring and late spring took her back to the yard and found some ointment to apply on her.

In late spring, I soaked the handkerchief in the ornamental porcelain jar at the door. The water in it was brought down from the mountain by Shen Ningning. It is said that it has miraculous effects on wounds.

 Looking at the little guy's big eyes, they were all red.

Wan Chun felt a little distressed, and then said angrily: "No matter how bad the second young master's character is, he can't hurt the princess. You are his sister."

Shen Ningning's voice was soft and low: "I'm not his sister."

 Late Chun was startled.

 The little guy then said silently: "I am not the daughter of the Xie family."

Wuchun pursed her lips and hurriedly stepped forward: "Princess, may I ask the doctor to come and see you?"

Shen Ningning shook her head decisively. She looked in the mirror and said, "It's a small injury. I'll soak it in my own spring water and apply some ointment, and it will be cured."

 After saying that, she stretched out her two small hands and took the fingers of Du Chun and Wan Chun respectively.

 “You must never tell your godfather about this.”

Wan Chun was a little aggrieved: "But Princess, the second young master hurt you as soon as he entered the house. He..."

Shen Ningning interrupted her: "Second brother doesn't like me. I will never provoke him again. I will just avoid him."

 But if Xie Suzhi knew what Xie Mingan did, he would reprimand Xie Mingan.

 Wouldn’t it be possible for father and son to have conflicts over this?

Shen Ningning felt that she had been taken care of by the Xie family in every possible way, giving her a warmth she had never experienced before.

She doesn't want to cause trouble to the family, let alone have them have conflicts because of her.

Wuchun sighed: "Princess, if you want to hide this from me, it might be easy."

“But you are going to the palace to have tea with His Royal Highness in the afternoon, and His Highness will definitely notice it.”

Shen Ningning blinked her long eyelashes in distress.

 She looked around: "Well, then I have to think of a way..."

afternoon.

Mo Lingwei was waiting at the gate of Zichen Palace.

His cold brows, when he saw the little orange figure walking towards him little by little, Mo Lingwei stretched his cold brows and showed a gentle smile.

"Why are you so late?" When he saw her, Mo Lingwei first handed the heater into the little guy's arms.

However, when he looked at it, he found that she was dressed very differently today.

 Instead of wearing a velvet hat to protect from the wind, he wore rabbit velvet muffs on both ears.

 At this moment, as the little one walked, the rabbit fur swayed slightly, making her look as furry and cute as a kitten.

Mo Lingwei chuckled: "What kind of costume is this?"

This is the first time I saw someone covering their ears.

Shen Ningning blinked her round black eyes, her face white and rosy.

She Nu Nuo said: "I went to bed at noon and woke up late, so I came here in a hurry."

 After saying that, Shen Ningning shook her little head and asked proudly: "I made the earmuffs myself."

 “Isn’t it beautiful? From now on, you don’t have to worry about freezing your ears when you go out!”

Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows, his eyes sparkling: "It's better if you just wear a hat."

He reached out his hand and wanted to touch the earmuffs.

 But before he met Shen Ningning, the little guy hurriedly ducked aside.

Mo Lingwei's hand paused in the air.

A hint of guilt flashed across Shen Ningning's face.

She explained with a smile: "Well...brother, it's so cold here, let's go in quickly."

Mo Lingwei didn't think much, retracted his hand and turned to hold Shen Ningning's hand: "Okay."

 The two of them entered the hall, where the warm charcoal fire and earth dragon kept out the cold.

Mo Lingwei had already arranged for a table of cakes and hot tea to be prepared under the window.

 He and Shen Ningning sat around the stove enjoying the snow, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

The two of them drank tea for a while, and Mo Lingwei said, "Take off your earmuffs. Isn't it hot?"

Shen Ningning held the tea cup in her small hands and lowered her head to drink tea. She didn't dare to look at him, but said Nuo Nuo: "It's not hot at all. It looks good on it!" Mo Lingwei looked at the crystal drops oozing out from the little guy's forehead. She was sweating, and her thin eyes were lost in thought.

 You’re already sweating, but you still say it’s not hot?

He put down the tea cup and said, "Second Young Master Xie Ming'an returned to Beijing today. Have you seen him?"

Shen Ningning coughed lightly: "I see you, my second brother is doing well."

Mo Lingwei stood up, walked to the treasure rack aside, took out two books, and then handed them to Shen Ningning.

“I heard that he has recently been collecting a collection of poems by the Zhang family. I happen to have two unique copies here, both of which are authentic works by the Zhang family. If you bring them to him, consider them as a meeting gift from me.”

He did this not to appreciate Xie Ming'an, but because of Shen Ningning's face, and he treated Xie's family members differently.

 Shen Ningning has always been enthusiastic, but this time he hesitated.

“Well, second brother seems to be very busy. I don’t want to disturb him. Brother, you’d better find a chance and give it to him yourself!”

Mo Lingwei frowned slightly, doubts filling his thin eyes.

Shen Ningning did not dare to look at him, she only held the tea cup guiltily and drank in small sips.

“That’s fine, let’s not give it away yet.” Mo Lingwei threw the book back on the table.

Looking at Shen Ningning's attitude, he probably didn't talk to Xie Mingan.

Even Mo Lingwei has heard that Xie Mingan has an arrogant and cold-blooded temperament.

If Xie Mingan doesn't want to see Shen Ningning, then Mo Lingwei will naturally not give him a good look.

 At this time, the palace maid came in to add tea.

When the scalding hot water slowly entered the boiling stove again, Shen Ningning smelled the fragrance of tea.

The palace maid finished adding water and was about to take back her hand. Suddenly, she accidentally raised her arm and scraped off the earmuff of Shen Ningning's right ear.

 The little guy’s eyes widened and he quickly covered his ears.

The palace maid turned pale with fright, and immediately knelt on the ground: "This slave deserves to die, please forgive me, Princess."

Shen Ningning went to pick up the earmuffs in a panic: "It's okay, it's okay."

However, as soon as her little hand touched the earmuff that fell on the ground, Mo Lingwei's slender palm picked it up before her.

Mo Lingwei looked at the things in his hands: "I thought there was something hidden in it, you are so precious."

 He raised his head after speaking and was about to help Shen Ningning put it on.

However, he saw that she was covering her right ear tightly with her little hand, and her face was almost pale with panic.

Mo Lingwei’s smiling brows slowly wrinkled.

 “What’s wrong with the ears?”

 “No, nothing happened.”

"Let me take a look." Mo Lingwei said, pulling her little hand away.

Shen Ningning was not as strong as him, so her hand was forcibly pulled away, and the injured ear was exposed in front of Mo Lingwei's eyes.

On the fair and round earlobe, a red mark was very obvious.

 A thin layer of blood scab that looks like it will crack soon.

Mo Lingwei's eyes gradually became frosty.

 “How did you get hurt?”

"I accidentally dropped it." Shen Ningning grabbed the earmuffs and put them on in a hurry.

Mo Lingwei held her wrist and didn't allow her to hide.

 “Lie!” He scolded: “Can a fall cause such a wound?”

Mo Lingwei looked at it carefully, as if he had been lightly cut by a knife.

Thinking of this, his face turned as cold as ice.

Who dares to do this to Shen Ningning?

 “Did Xie Suzhi do it?”

 “No!” Shen Ningning shook her head hastily.

 “That’s the Black Wolf King.”

"No, brother, don't guess, it's not the case."

 “Is it Xie Mingan?” Mo Lingwei suddenly said the name.

Shen Ningning's face froze.

Seeing her reaction, Mo Lingwei's eyes suddenly turned dark and sinister.

 He turned around and said in an angry tone: "Send Xie Ming'an over here!" (End of this chapter)
