18, Chapter 18(1/2)
"I thought about it very clearly." Ino said seriously to Yue Zhan.
In his opinion, it was a good deal to use an amnesty opportunity that was of no use to him in exchange for the future Imperial Speaker to work for him.
Yue Zhan frowned slightly and said nothing, but turned his head to see Xie Qingran's reaction.
After hearing these words, Xie Qingran's eyes didn't have any waves, they were still as calm as a pool of stagnant water.
"What are the conditions?" Xie Qingran asked after a moment.
His voice was slightly hoarse, probably because he hadn't spoken much for a long time.
Ino was slightly stunned, she didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
Yue Zhan frowned slightly, feeling that this person might be difficult to control. The little prince wanted to win over anyone at every turn.
Ino quickly came to his senses and said with a smile: "I do have a favor that I need your help with. I'm investigating the Zong family recently..."
Xie Qingran has always known that there is no free lunch in the world, and even if there was, it would not be given to him.
God has always been kind to him, and even if he occasionally shows some mercy, he will soon pay a greater price.
Therefore, when the little prince said those seductive words, he had no fluctuation in his heart. He even sneered and thought: What tricks do these powerful people want to play?
But he didn't expect that the little prince's condition was just... to let him help deal with the Zong family?
"The Zong family is not easy to deal with." As if he could tell what Xie Qingran was thinking, Yi Nuo emphasized seriously.
Of course Xie Qingran knew that the Zong family was difficult to deal with, but if he could really get out, he would try his best to bring down the Zong family even if the young prince didn't mention it. To him, the condition raised by the young prince was not a price at all.
"That's all?" he asked with a slight frown.
"That's all." Ino smiled, but she didn't think so at all.
[Of course it’s more than that. When you become the Speaker, I will rely on you and Hu Yichen to help me deal with Yue Zhan~]
As soon as I finished thinking, I was hit on the head.
Ino was confused, covering his head and looking at the culprit.
Yue Zhan said expressionlessly: "Your Highness has a mosquito on his head."
Ino: "???"
[Yue Zhan is getting more and more presumptuous! Do I look like a retard? Would I believe such a lie? 】
Xie Qingran looked at them with a strange expression.
He knew that the two people in front of him, one was a major general and the other was a prince, both had extraordinary status. If it were truly considered, the major general had more real power, while the prince was just an empty title.
But after Xie Qingran observed, he discovered that the one who could really make him leave here was the little prince. Because in this matter, Major General Yue... seemed to listen to the little prince.
Yuezhan was naturally aware of Xie Qingran's observation, but did not stop him. He just wanted to make the other party realize that it was the little prince who gave him the opportunity to go out.
Also, with the little prince under his protection, Xie Qingran had better not have any evil intentions.
After hinting at this, Yuezhan took over Ino's job and began to help catch fish.
"If you think carefully about what His Highness just said and can accept it, then you can leave here tonight." He looked at Xie Qingran with a slightly scrutinizing look.
【So fast?】
Ino looked at him in surprise, thinking with some confidence——
[But if I sign the amnesty order and pass the review, it may take at least two days...]
Yue Zhan gave him a comforting look, and then said to Xie Qingran: "But after you go out, you must promise that while you are helping His Highness, you must be loyal to His Highness, and you must not take advantage of or hurt His Highness's thoughts, otherwise..."
He didn't say the rest, but the meaning was self-evident.
Ino glanced at him secretly and thought to himself——
[When Yue Zhan becomes serious, he is indeed so fierce, comparable to the blackened version in the small dark room. But he is so fierce to Xie Qingran, Xie Qingran will probably not cooperate with him again in the future, right? 】
[This is a good thing. Two blackened mad demons started to fight each other, and it happened again...]
Yue Zhan raised his hand expressionlessly.
Ino quickly covered her head and looked at him reflexively.
[Strange, why do I get knocked on the head every time I think about something bad in my mind? Does this guy have the ability to read minds? 】
Unexpectedly, Yue Zhan just turned his wrist this time, then turned his head to look at him and said, "My hands are sore."
Ino: "..."
[There are quite a lot of problems with your hands. I think you should chop them off to prevent you from grabbing my tail in the future.]
[No, why was my conditioned reflex knocked out? 】
Yue Zhan really wants to see where the little prince has a tail. If there really is a tail...
Imagine that the little prince has a fluffy little tail, or a beautiful little fish tail, and suddenly he feels... his hands are really itchy, and he wants to pull it.
But it was obviously not the time to think about this now. He coughed lightly, quickly returned to seriousness, looked at Xie Qingran and asked: "So, what is your choice?"
Xie Qingran remained silent, her eyes wandering between Yue Zhan and Yi Nuo, and finally fell on Yi Nuo.
Ino gave him a friendly smile.
Xie Qingran immediately looked away and silently commented in his heart: He is a bit silly and sweet, he is a naive little prince who is not familiar with the world.
However, Shabaitian has the advantage of Shabaitian. If the condition is to help Yue Zhan, then he will definitely be wary. But if it is to help the little prince...
After a moment of silence, he finally spoke, his eyes fixed on the two of them, and said, "I agree."
Hearing this, Ino secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "Then I will sign the amnesty now..."
"No need." Yue Zhan suddenly stopped him and said, "You can apply for medical parole first. Once the Zong family is dealt with, what happened to him will be nothing."
The fact that the royal children have the right to amnesty has been criticized by the people. If the young prince uses it, especially during this special period, the Zong family will definitely seize the opportunity and attack it in public opinion.
Yuezhan didn't want to see the little prince being attacked, especially because Xie Qingran, an outsider, was attacked. However, he didn't seem to realize that, unknowingly, he had already classified himself and the little prince together.
Ino was surprised when he heard this and said: "But... doesn't that require a serious illness to do it?"
Yue Zhan glanced at Xie Qingran and said, "That's right. Didn't he just get beaten?"
Xie Qingran: "..."
He felt that this person would be hostile to him.
Ino looked at Xie Qingran, then at Yue Zhan, but stopped talking.
It was obvious that most of Xie Qingran's injuries were skin injuries. Although they looked serious, they were not enough to require medical parole.
Ino knew that Yue Zhan had great authority at the base, but he also knew that Yue Zhan was a person who valued discipline and rarely violated principles.
For example, no matter how disgusted and hated he was towards Hope, Zong Ming and others, Yue Zhan never took action personally, but instead handed them over to relevant agencies for disposal according to regulations.
But this time...
Ino couldn't help but fall into deep thought, why is Yuezhan like this?
Of course, Yue Zhan also knew that Xie Qingran was not injured to that extent. Seeing the little prince's expression of doubt, he glanced at the injuries on Xie Qingran's face and said casually: "The situation is a bit unqualified, but it would be better if I gave him another beating.
Already?"
Ino: "???"
Xie Qingran: "..."
He was very sure that this young master would be hostile to him.
Of course Yue Zhan was joking. He really couldn't interfere in matters outside the base, but the beauty of this matter was that Zong Ming sent Xie Qingran to a military prison.
It is not difficult for Yue Zhan to take someone away from the military prison at the base. Although it is a bit against his code of conduct,...
Alas, just think that the Zha Zong family needs it.
He stood up helplessly, touched the small dark cloud above Ino's head, and said: "Your Highness, wait a moment, I will go through the formalities."
Little Black Cloud also nuzzled him like a baby, and then floated quietly above Ino's head, as if he was a little sleepy.
Yue Zhan felt that this little thing was much cuter than the little prince himself. When he thought about it, he actually forgot where his curly hair came from.
Ino was not a ungrateful person. Of course, he could see that Yuezhan was trying to help him, so he couldn't help but turn around and said "thank you" sincerely.
After thanking me, I couldn’t help but sigh in my heart——
[When Yue Zhan is not black, he is such a good person. Alas, what a pity...]
Yue Zhan: "..."
Zong Wei learned that the young prince had taken away some information from the database, interrogated Zong Ming overnight, and took Xie Qing away from the military prison. Then, he finally realized the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly called Zong Qingxu who was far away in the Imperial City.
.
"Father, what should we do now?" Zong Wei was a little panicked, "The evidence that Xie Qingran used to blackmail us has not been found yet, and I don't know where he hid it. What if he gave the evidence to the young prince or
Jump over the stack…”
"Why did they find Xie Qingran?" Zong Qingxu interrupted his son in a deep voice.
"This, this... I don't know either." Zong Wei looked bitter.
