Adorable Princess: General, Be Reasonable

When the man's companion heard, he immediately took out a rope from his bosom and walked in front of Ding Tao and tied it around Ding Tao's neck.

Following the tightening of the rope, Ding Tao's face gradually flushed red, his breathing became more hurried, and his struggling movements became weaker and weaker.

These two people were obviously here to kill her. She had never been enemies with anyone and had never done anything shameful, the only thing she had done was sleep in the same room as Mo Qingqing and the crown prince.

She did not want to make up for that night, but her indenture was with the young lady, and she could not decide for herself.

She knew that with her aunt's personality, she wouldn't let her off, so she went to beg the young lady. She knew how to make the young lady soften her heart.

Afterwards, under the arrangements of the young mistress, she lived in this courtyard. She had originally wanted to grow up in peace and quiet, but who would've thought that in the end, the young lady and her concubine would still not let her off?

She trusted Miss so much, but she did not expect that what she received in return was a calamity that killed her. The desire to live in Ding Tao's eyes was gradually replaced by despair and hatred.

Just when Ding Tao thought that he was doomed, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open.

Seeing the person, Ding Tao's eyes surfaced anew with the desire to live.

"Save, save me …" Ding Tao used his last bit of strength to finish speaking.

"Where did this nosy person come from? Scram!" In truth, pretending to be an assassin was just a servant. He looked at his comrades, and spoke with a vicious tone, wanting to scare Mo Ranran away.

They had always been working for the Concubine Li, killing a servant was a casual matter, but Mo Ranran and the rest did not dare move.

"You're so scared that your hands are shaking, and you're still mad at me?" Mo Ranran frowned, his gaze landing on the so-called killer, his mouth raised in a mocking smile.

The servant who was covering Ding Tao's mouth had an awkward look on his face. Without waiting for the two of them to react, Mo Ranran had already appeared in front of them.

The two of them only felt a shadow flash in front of them, and they didn't even have time to resist before they were knocked unconscious by Mo Ranran.

"Cough, cough, cough." As the two of them fainted, their hands that were holding onto Ding Tao and the rope that was tugging at her neck loosened, one in front and one behind. Only Ding Tao could be seen coughing as he breathed in large mouthfuls of fresh air.

It felt like he had just survived a disaster.

"Ding Tao greets the young miss." After taking a deep breath, Ding Tao looked at Mo Ranran with gratitude as she bowed to her. Then, she walked to the front of the two servants and took off the veil covering their faces.

Seeing those two familiar faces, Ding Tao's expression slightly changed. It was one thing to guess, and to personally confirm it was another.

"The young miss has saved Ding Tao, in the future, Ding Tao's life will belong to the young miss, whatever the young miss wants him to do, Ding Tao will do his best." After a while, Ding Tao's face had already returned to normal.

"Go tie these two up." The corner of Mo Ranran's mouth raised into a beautiful curve, pointing towards the hemp rope the servant brought, she liked to chat with sensible people.

The hemp rope was prepared by the servants for Ding Tao. They wanted to strangle him to death first to recreate a false image so that others would think that Ding Tao hanged himself.

Hearing that, Ding Tao picked up the rope on the ground, and took a while to tie the two of them up.

Mo Ranran looked at the two people who were tied up with so many things, and leisurely spoke: "Wake them up."

Ding Tao looked at the two of them, and then kicked the weakest spot between them.

Ah!" Both of them screamed out in pain, waking up from their stupor.

First Miss, please spare us, it was the Concubine Li who asked us to do this, we were merely listening to orders. When the two servants came to their senses and realized that they were tied up, Mo Ranran didn't even ask as one of them directly sold the Concubine Li.

Another servant also begged for mercy, "Right, right, I'm begging Miss for mercy. What I just said was something I was forced to say, and I don't really want to be disrespectful to Eldest Miss."

Mo Ranran looked at the two of them who were crying without admitting anything, and suddenly lost the interest to interrogate them.

The two of them had already asked their questions, what else was there for her to ask?

Mo Ranran took out a porcelain bottle and poured out two pills. Each of them had one pill inside and stuffed it into the mouths of two people.

A servant tremblingly asked, "El-Eldest Miss, what did you give us to eat …"

"Poison." Mo Ranran opened his mouth and slowly spat out two words.

The expressions of the two servants instantly changed.

"Don't worry. As long as you do as I say, I will naturally give you the antidote when the matter is completed." Mo Ranran's mouth formed a faint smile.

"Eldest Miss, what do you want us to do?" The servant looked at Mo Ranran.

Mo Ranran looked at the two servants who had quieted down, and the corner of his mouth slightly curled.

Two hours later.

Two servants sneaked into the Mo Mansion through the back door and arrived outside the Concubine Li's house. The two looked around, but seeing that there was no one around, they knocked on the Concubine Li's door.

The door to the room was pushed open. A servant walked in, while the other kept watch outside.

Concubine Li looked at the servant in front of him and asked anxiously: "How is it? Has the matter been disguised? "

"We threw Ding Tao into the moat after he fainted." The servant lowered his head and did not look into Concubine Li's eyes.

"Didn't I tell you to strangle her?" Hearing that, Concubine Li's face did not look good. If she could not see the corpse, she would feel uneasy.

"Aunt, don't worry, the water level of the moat is high, and we knocked her unconscious, so she won't be able to live. When the corpse is found, she'll probably be soaked to the point of not recognizing it, this way it won't be any more shocking than hanging herself." Before the servant came, he had already thought of a reason.

With this call, the originally dissatisfied Concubine Li's expression became slightly better.

Thinking about it, it was indeed better to lose one's footing and fall into the water than to hang oneself.

"Aunt, he's already dead. Isn't it about time he gave us the silver he promised?" When the servant saw Concubine Li's expression, he heaved a sigh of relief and smiled obsequiously at him.

"Count them all." Concubine Li stood up and took out the silver he prepared earlier and passed it to the servant.

"Thank you, Aunt. If Aunt has such good fortune in the future, remember to look for us two brothers." The servant weighed the silver and left Concubine Li's room after saying that.

When they reached a safe place, the second eldest asked the eldest, "You didn't expose yourself, right?"

"Don't worry, no." The eldest brother looked at his younger brother and took out some silver from his pocket, "We will divide the silver into points, and when we get the antidote, we will return to our hometown. With this silver, we will have enough to live a peaceful life in the countryside."

When Concubine Li found out that Ding Tao wasn't dead, the two brothers would have lied to her, and according to Concubine Li's personality, she would definitely not let them off, so she might as well pack up her things early, leave the Mo Mansion, and return to her hometown to use the money to marry a beautiful and virtuous wife and live her life peacefully.

"Alright." The second brother hesitated for a moment before nodding.

Nothing was as important as his own life.

Successfully getting rid of Ding Tao made Concubine Li's mood turn better. When he met Mo Ranran, although he did not have a smile on his face, his complexion was also much better than before.

After Mo Qingqing's Fetal Elephant had calmed down, it was brought back to the crown prince's residence by the people from the crown prince's household. Under the cover of being worried about Mo Qingqing, the Concubine Li also went to the crown prince's household.

When the Emperor found out that Mo Qingqing was pregnant, he was very happy. Furthermore, since the crown prince had returned in triumph this time, and considering Mo Qingqing's condition, it just so happened that the empress's birthday was about to arrive. Thus, the emperor set the date for the celebratory feast to be held on the day of the empress's birthday.

Without Mo Qingqing and Concubine Li, Mo Ranran's life in Mo Mansion was pretty good.

Time flew and soon, the day of the celebratory feast arrived.

Mo Ranran sat in her own seat, watching the palace feast that was filled with laughter, but she couldn't get happy at all.

It had been more than ten days since she had returned, but Mo Feiye still had not returned. Outside, it was clear that Mo Feiye was most likely dead.

But she couldn't believe, she couldn't believe, that such a strong person like Mo Feiye could survive a plague, and he wouldn't die.

The more Mo Ranran thought about it, the more annoyed he became. Unknowingly, he drank a bit too much.

Halfway through the banquet, everyone felt a bit drunk.

One of the officers drank the wine in his cup and could not help but sigh with emotion: "This expedition, thanks to the Miss Mo, if she had not found the cure to the plague, we would probably have died at the border, not to mention chasing the Huns back home."

Immediately, everyone looked at Mo Ranran, and Mo Ranran lifted his drunken, hazy eyes to look around.

The Emperor looked at Mo Ranran, and the moment Mo Ranran raised his eyes, it was as if he was looking at a Consort Ye who had yet to enter the palace.

At that time, the Consort Ye was also as beautiful and clean as Mo Ranran.

"Mo Ranran, you have done a great deed this time. Tell me, what reward do you want? "As long as I can do it, you can." The emperor retracted the emotions in his eyes, and an additional tinge of admiration and liking for Mo Ranran appeared once again.

He suddenly felt jealous of Mo Hao, to have such a good daughter.

"I want my brother." The soft voice carried a trace of undetectable grievance.

Usually, Mo Ranran's body would carry a cold aura, but the current Mo Ranran no longer had her usual indifference, with an additional trace of gentleness. Her face was slightly flushed, and she looked much more gentle.

The bustling palace banquet instantly quieted down.

It's been so long, but there was still no news. Mo Feiye must be dead, but no one dared to speak up.

To speak of such dejected matters during the celebratory feast, wasn't this just embarrassing the emperor? Naturally, no one dared to speak of it.

The smile on the emperor's face gradually disappeared, and the atmosphere gradually froze.

Seeing that, Mo Hao sensed that something was wrong and stepped forward to adjust: "Ranran is drunk, and has said some nonsense, I hope that Your Majesty does not mind."

As he said that, he tugged on Mo Ranran's sleeves.

Only after being pulled by Mo Hao did Mo Ranran realize what he had said. In an instant, he had become quite a bit more clear-headed.

"It's alright." The emperor smiled lightly and brought the topic over. The ministers also changed the topic at the right time.

As for whether the emperor really did not mind, only the emperor himself knew.

The palace banquet continued, but Mo Ranran could not stay any longer, so while no one was watching, he quietly left.
