The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 134 The little princess should not be underestimated

Since Pei Hao said this, Du Wan had no reason not to believe it.

 Two people planned to leave.

Pei Hao asked Du Wan, "Do you want to go to the poetry meeting?"

"Now that you're here, you can take a look." Du Wan was thinking about the murderer, but she lost her initial interest in it. "Prince Pei, can your family come up with two hundred thousand taels of gold?"

"I can barely do it if I spend all my wealth on it." Pei Hao pondered for a moment before answering.

　Du Wan was stunned for a moment.

Zhen Guo Gongfu can be said to be a well-established family in the capital. Even Zhen Guo Gongfu had to spend all his family wealth to get two hundred thousand taels of gold. So, who hates her so much that he spends all his wealth to kill her?

This alone excluded more than 99% of the forces in the capital, making the real culprit even more confusing.

Pei Hao looked at Du Wan steadily, "Now I'm sure it can only be a vendetta."

 “Nonsense, my brother has already made a guess.”

 “He is guessing, but not sure.”

"Okay, vendetta, vendetta!" Du Wan was extremely irritated, "Then who do I, a little girl, have a grudge against?"

 She has no memory of the original owner, and she doesn’t know who she has offended.

Du Wan looked at Pei Hao and asked doubtfully, "Tell me, have I killed anyone before?"

Pei Hao knew that the little girl was under great pressure and was not in a good mood at this time. After thinking about it, he said: "No, it's just a petty fight between some little girls. Logically speaking, it cannot rise to the level of vendetta. Besides, I have a feud with you. Girl, no one can afford this huge sum of money."

 “Have you really found out?”

“…” Pei Hao knew that she was doubting life.

 Not only was she confused, he was also confused.

 …

 Another private room in Wangyue Tower.

When Xie Zhang saw his cousin coming back safely, he tightened his grip on the folding fan and then loosened it slightly.

“Cousin, did the princess really know your identity?” Xie Zhang asked softly.

 The young man shook his head, "I don't know."

"What's the meaning?"

"She didn't mention it. I didn't dare to mention it. I guess...she probably just said it casually. When we met today, the little princess is more important than expected." The young man made this judgment because Du Wan did not take his identity. To threaten him, she actually agreed to the conditions he proposed, "If she really knows, and has such a good handle, there is no reason not to use it."

Xie Zhang felt relieved after hearing this, "You are right."

 Understood, there’s no reason not to use it?

Even if you really know it, it is of no use to you now. As long as you don’t provoke the other party in the future, it probably won’t be of use either.

The young man said: "Cousin, do you want to participate in the poetry meeting?"

"Yes, how about you?"

"I want to join in the fun, but I'm afraid I'll run into the little princess." The young man is now very taboo about Du Wan's evil sect.

Xie Zhang asked: "Are you afraid that she will recognize you?"

"I have such scruples." The young man thought for a while, "Since I have left the city, I have no plans to go back for the time being. I will stay outside the city to contact other people. Cousin, go and get busy and say hello to my uncle for me."

Xie Zhang did not force him, "You have to take care. My father is still looking forward to your return home."

"Um…"

 The young man nodded solemnly.

Xie Zhang looked at him deeply and was about to turn around and walk out of the box.

 Everyone has the right to decide his or her own life. He would only give suggestions on how his cousin would go in the future, and would not decide anything for him.

At this point, he can finally explain it to his father...

 When Xie Zhang was about to cross the threshold.

 The young man suddenly spoke again, "Cousin, don't you want to know who wants to kill the little princess?"

“…” Xie Zhang turned to look at him calmly.

 The brothers did not sit down and chat much.

Xie Zhang took a few steps back and said, "Cousin, can you tell me?" "You didn't ask me, I thought you didn't want to know."

“I really want to know, but I don’t want to embarrass my cousin.” Xie Zhang said calmly.

"Actually, there's nothing we can't say. Someone offered us 200,000 taels of gold to assassinate the little princess. The person who placed the order at that time left 30% of the amount as a deposit." This is the first time that the Yan Clan has made such a big move. meet.

 Otherwise, the young man would not have broken the rules and accepted this order.

 Xie Zhang stood quietly where he was.

Like the tall green pines on the cliffs or the green bamboos by the stream, they have a very peaceful charm.

He didn't rush to ask, but when the young man saw that he didn't speak, he continued to speak, "Some of us followed the person who placed the order, and finally saw him entering the house of the Minister of Rites."

“…” Xie Zhang’s pupils narrowed, “Impossible!”

Soon he thought again that there was no need for his cousin to lie to him.

 The young man spread his hands helplessly, "But this is the truth. Our people have seen it with their own eyes."

“You don’t want to use this clue to trade with Pei Hao and the princess.”

 “The Yan Clan only knows so much.”

 “Then they will be happy?”

 “At most we can provide the service of identifying people.” The young man had no choice but to do so.

 Xie Zhang didn’t know whether his cousin was truly fearless or if he was ambitious.

Pei Hao is not easy to fool, even if what his cousin said is true. He could only give his cousin a warning and ask him to be careful so as not to get himself into trouble again in the future.

 Xie Zhang then left the box and did not go directly to the poetry meeting.

 He walked in another direction.

 It is a building that is not open for business deep in the Wangyue Tower garden.

 …

 Poem session in the lobby of Wangyue Tower.

 There are many scholars gathered here, regardless of age.

 There are old gentlemen and there are young and energetic ones.

Du Wan came over to take a look and saw Ning Xianhe and other Imperial College students from last time.

Pei Hao took him with him. Instead of going back to his original seat, he found a corner and sat down. They just came to watch the excitement, not to let others watch the excitement. Their previous position was too conspicuous.

Pei Hao just wanted to push the poured tea to the little girl.

As a result, he saw the little girl suddenly hiding behind him.

 “What’s wrong?” Pei Hao was surprised.

Du Wan whispered: "If you see an acquaintance, it will be over if you are seen."

"Who?" Pei Hao looked in the direction she was going before and saw only a few noble ladies sitting there, "Are you familiar with those ladies?"

“Qin Jiu, do you know Qin Jiu?”

 “Oh, why are you afraid of her?”

"..." Du Wan wanted to glare at him, "Can you speak? I'm just embarrassed about whether you're afraid or not. Do you understand? It has nothing to do with being afraid."

Du Wan had no choice but to tell her what Qin Jiu had invited her to yesterday, "It's all your fault for not leaving last night. Originally, I wanted to wait until you left before asking someone to come over and tell her. But -"

Pei Hao interrupted her, "If I leave, you won't have anything to do later."

　　　…”

Du Wan pouted her mouth unhappily.

 It’s not like I didn’t find anyone to complain about.

Pei Hao pulled her to his side and sat down in a funny way, blocking her with his tall body. Even if Qin Jiuchao looked this way, he would never see her again, "That's enough. Besides, you're not pretending to be a teenager anymore." What are you worried about?"

“You think I’m stupid, the person I just met called me princess when he came in.” Du Wan has never regarded anyone in this world as a fool.
