The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

 Chapter 176 Saved an archenemy

Du Wan could only stay with the eldest princess.

The eldest princess was packing her personal belongings. Qin Jiu was helping her and chatting happily.

While the two of them were chatting in a lively manner, Du Wan grabbed a handful of dried fruits on the table, then crouched and quietly slipped toward the door.

But it was just out of the house.

Sneaked around in the yard and never stepped out of the yard.

 There are no buildings nearby in the courtyard of Du's house, and it is far away from the main hall of Huguo Temple where the Bodhisattva is enshrined. The eldest princess didn't let her go out for a walk, probably because she was worried about her safety. As a well-behaved daughter, you must be obedient.

At this time, Du Wan climbed up a big tree next to the courtyard wall.

 Stand high and see far.

 Eat dried fruits while looking at the scenery, enjoying life.

 The guards of the Princess Mansion who were patrolling outside the wall were wiping their hands in cold sweat.

 What should I do if it falls?

There was a guard standing outside the courtyard wall, "Princess? Be careful."

Du Wan sat on the tree, lowered his head and looked down, "Oh, it's you. Gouzi. You are on duty today. Are you patrolling?"

"The princess still remembers her subordinates." The guard was very excited.

Du Wan smiled brightly and said, "Remember."

This name is so unique that it’s hard for her to forget it.

 Then Du Wan threw a piece of dried fruit at him, "Thank you for your hard work on duty. Come on, I'll reward you with a piece of dried fruit."

Gouzi caught it and said happily, "Thank you, Princess."

Then, he took out a small paper bag from his arms and returned the favor, "Princess, I fried the sunflower seeds myself. Do you want to try it? I happen to have a small bag here."

 Open it, it’s sunflower seeds.

Du Wan's eyes lit up, "Throw it up."

Gouzi wrapped the melon seeds again and threw them toward the tree.

Du Wan grabbed it easily and said, "Thank you."

"Then I'm going to be on duty. Princess, please be careful not to fall down." Gouzi smiled like a fool and ran to go on duty.

 “It’s okay, bye.”

Du Wan waved goodbye to Gou Zi.

 Then there was no one around, so she swung her feet again, eating melon seeds leisurely and looking at the scenery.

 The courtyard of the Du family has a cliff to the east and a small bamboo forest to the west. The wind made a rustling sound, which was quite interesting.

At this time, Du Wan did not know that she was looking at the scenery, and she had become the scenery in the eyes of others.

not far away.

 A pavilion in a bamboo forest.

A young prince smiled and asked: "Chengming, is that the princess on the tree?"

Pei Hao looked at the man on the tree and nodded inexplicably.

The young man chuckled: "...very lively."

“Well, very lively.” Pei Hao picked up the wine glass on the stone table.

The young man joked: "You came after me as soon as I arrived at the temple. You're very considerate of me."

 “I came here with my mother and sister.”

 “…Haha. Just be tough.”

 There was another burst of clear laughter in the pavilion.

Pei Hao didn't care about his friends' teasing. What he thought about was the little girl talking to the guard. It's a little far away, so I don't know what they said. But he could still see that the little girl was very happy and threw something to the guard, and then the guard threw something to her. When the guard left, she waved to him...

Du Wan heard laughter in the distance.

 Looking over there, there seems to be a pavilion in the bamboo forest.

Is there anyone inside?

 The distance was a bit far, and there were bamboos blocking it, so I couldn’t see clearly who it was.

Du Wan was just trying to listen.

Below, a voice with gnashing teeth cursed angrily: "Okay, you actually hid in the tree and gave me a good meal!"

Du Wan lowered his head and took a look. He saw Qin Jiu standing under the tree, looking up at her with great momentum.

Du Wan spat out the melon seed skin and said, "What are you doing?"

"I've been looking for you for a long time. I asked the maids and they said they didn't see you, but no one told me they didn't know. I asked the guards guarding the courtyard gate, and they said they didn't see you going out." Qin Jiu rummaged through almost the entire courtyard. She still couldn't find anyone, and she was so anxious that she was sweating profusely, and almost alarmed the eldest princess!

 In fact, it’s not surprising that Qin Jiu was so angry.

Du Wan’s assassination happened every three days.

Qin Jiu found out that she was missing, so it would be strange if he wasn't afraid.

As a result, she was on tenterhooks, but others were leisurely?

Du Wan was eating melon seeds while watching the girl curse under the tree.

 Even though the girl was scolding herself, it was still pretty funny. Not everyone will be unhappy if they are scolded. For example, right now, Du Wan is very happy being scolded.

Qin Jiu was cursing, but it was out of concern for her fears.

 Let her vent her anger before we talk, otherwise she might be depressed if she keeps it in her heart.

After scolding for a long time, Qin Jiu finally stopped.

Then, Qin Jiujiu climbed up the tree and snatched all the uneaten melon seeds from Du Wan's hand.

 Du Wan asked: "Aren't you accompanying my mother?"

"The old lady of the Qi family came to pay homage to the princess. As a junior, I can't stay here, so I came out to look for you."

 “Qijia?”

 “Master of the Emperor of Qi, the family of the Grand Tutor of Qi.”

Qin Jiu became absent-minded after mentioning the Qi family.

When Du Wan saw this, she rolled her eyes and said, "Shall we go out for a walk?"

“Isn’t the eldest princess not allowing you to go out?”

"Mom is afraid that I will go out alone and cause trouble, but I won't be afraid if you follow me. If you are worried, you can ask my mother first to see if she agrees?"

 “Then I’ll ask.”

Qin Jiu would not go out secretly as Du Wan said.

 She put the melon seeds back into Du Wan's hand, then got down from the tree and left.

It was the young master in the bamboo forest who noticed the situation on Du Wan's side and asked, "Is the hobby of the ladies in the capital now tree climbing?"

"Fuss."

Pei Hao replied calmly.

 “Hey, your fiancée is also here. But...”

The young master’s words revealed surprise.

Pei Hao also noticed.

The little girl was so brave. She actually stepped from the tree to the courtyard wall, and then jumped directly from the courtyard wall, but the direction of the jump was outside the courtyard! Then the little girl ran in one direction, the situation was quite anxious.

 Some of the guards of the Princess Mansion noticed something unusual about Du Wan and immediately chased after him.

Pei Hao stood up suddenly and said, "I'll be back as soon as I go."

When he ran over, he happened to see the little girl rushing to the observation deck on the edge of the cliff and grabbing a girl who jumped off the cliff.

At that moment, it was extremely dangerous.

At this time, the guards arrived and pulled up the girl who was about to fall.

Only then did Du Wan see clearly who the girl was who was about to jump off the cliff.

 Is it Murong Jiaojiao? His body was thin, his face was haggard, and he looked dull. Du Wan knew that Murong Shangshu had been demoted from his official position, but he was not so depressed that he could not afford to eat.

 Unless the wall falls and everyone pushes it down.

Du Wan turned around and looked at the servants next to him, all wearing the same clothes. At first glance, they all came from wealthy families in the capital, and they all looked panic-stricken.

Du Wan was in the tree just now and saw a girl being chased by several men. Since the distance was quite far, I felt that this girl was a bit familiar, so I immediately ran over to save her.

Now the servants were stopped by the personal guards and were not allowed to escape.

Du Wan asked: "Murong Jiaojiao, do you need me to report to the official position for you?"

 “No need.” Murong Jiaojiao lowered her head, her voice hoarse.
