Chapter 988 - 224: The Eyeball Fell Out_2
She was busy preparing ammunition, and Zhang Gengshan didn’t dare to contradict her, knowing that the Crown Prince would soon no longer be the Crown Prince, and that a new one would ascend to the position.
When Mo Heng returned, his face was frosty and he was visibly displeased. As soon as he entered the room, he sat down opposite Pei Qin and stared at her.
"What’s wrong? You look so sour all of a sudden." It freaked her out, making her wonder if she had somehow wronged him.
"Li Shun and Zhou Jian want to see you." Mo Heng said grimly, still looking at her.
Pei Qin blinked at him, aware of this matter since they still needed to deliver these ammunitions to the Mortar Barracks! The Emperor had always paid her a salary, and her personal soldiers were still with her. The campaign to recapture Liaodong from the Rong Clan was imminent, so of course, Li Shun and Zhou Jian would need to see her.
The reason for Mo Heng’s displeasure wasn’t only because of Li Shun and Zhou Jian, but also Dou He. He had been pestering Pei Qin non-stop and following Zhao Xiaochen, bothering Mo Heng as well. Mo Heng had sent him off to the West Mountain Camp. Now that there was a troop deployment, Dou He had tracked down the whereabouts of Li Shun, Zhou Jian, and their ten men, directly following them to Daxing. If he met with Li Shun and Zhou Jian, Dou He would sooner or later find out Pei Qin’s identity.
Pei Qin guessed that he was upset about something else and that he didn’t want her to meet with Li Shun and Zhou Jian, so without caring about the gunpowder ash on her hands, she fiercely rubbed it into his handsome face, "Look at that expression, so long and sour, you have no appreciation!"
Mo Heng forcefully pulled her hand away, glowering at her, "What do you mean by no appreciation?" Before, she had complained that he was too pretty, and now she was tired of looking at him!?
