The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 208 The Crown Prince decided to pursue his wife

Du Wan said with a smile, "It's noon and the sun is so strong. Aren't you always afraid of heat stroke?"

 “…”Little girl, can you speak?

The little old man blew his beard and stared, then suddenly smiled and said, "Hey, is this roasted rabbit meat? It smells weird. Come on, I will help you carry it."

"No-"

　　There was only one word left, but before he could say it, the rabbit meat in Du Wan's hand disappeared.

 The old man’s action of snatching the meat was very fast.

　　It was so fast that Du Wan didn't even react, and couldn't help but squint his eyes.

 The little old man is not simple!

The old patriarch said cheerfully: "Okay, I'll help you carry it home."

 After saying that, the person ran away quickly.

Du Wan didn't even have time to shout, "Damn it! You're such a shameless person, you're just robbing me."

 Wait until I get back to my old house and ask.

Sure enough, the old patriarch said he was helping her carry the meat home, and he was carrying it home.

 It’s not her home, it’s his own home!

Du Wan was not really angry, he just thought it was quite funny.

She used to think that the Du family was impersonal, but now it's quite interesting to get along with them. I wanted to stay for one night and then go back to the princess mansion, but suddenly I didn't want to go back so soon.

 The green mountains and green waters here are quite nice.

Hmm, stay one more night?

 “Princess Princess.”

The person who called Du Wan was the old housekeeper who usually looked after the house.

Du Wan turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

 “There is your letter. It is from Prince Pei.”

 The old housekeeper said.

The person who delivered the message is still waiting.

Du Wan went over to meet the person and got the letter.

The guard of the Pei family did not leave. "Princess, do you have a reply? I can wait a little longer, there is no rush."

 “Then wait a moment.” Du Wan hasn’t read the letter yet.

Since I want to reply to the letter, I naturally have to go to the study.

Du Wan opened the letter and walked towards the study.

 The content above is very ordinary, starting with two polite greetings. Then he told her a big and popular gossip in Beijing. It was the unexpected failure of Xie Zhang and Qin Yuyu's marriage that spread through the official media.

It is said that the official media went to the Qin family to propose marriage, but the Qin family declined.

This so-called Qin family is a large family composed of a bunch of orphans. With the help of Xie Zhang, they all settled in a village on the outskirts.

 The person listed in the household registration as the head of the household is Qin Miao, and Qin Yuyu is considered the eldest sister.

That means Qin Miao came forward and said that it was wrong to have a wrong family. The Qin family knew that they were not worthy of Xie Qi and could not bear to ruin the future of their savior. What else is there to say, thanks to the seventh master's kindness in saving people, remarrying the daughter of the Qin family is equivalent to repaying kindness with hatred and so on. Nowadays, there are different opinions about this marriage in teahouses and restaurants in the capital.

Some people say that Qin Yuyu is stupid and extrapolates the benefits she gets, while others say that she understands benevolence and righteousness, understands the general principles, etc.

After reading the letter, Du Wan raised her eyebrows and said, "This Qin Yuyu is quite smart."

Whether you really want to marry or you have no intention of marrying, this trick is very clever. Not only did the reputation not deteriorate with rejection, but it only improved.

Now that’s it, how do I reply to the letter?

Had I known it was just a little bit of gossip, I wouldn't have agreed to reply.

Du Wan could only write a few words casually, "Prince Pei, Zhan Xinjia. Thank you for sharing the gossip, please keep it up. When the princess returns, please eat melon seeds. Goodbye. Signed Du Wan."

 A letter, done.

It can be said that this is the most normal letter Du Wan wrote when he came here.

Hurryly stuffed into the envelope, he was handed over to the Pei family's guards.

Du Wan also told the old housekeeper not to go back tonight, and asked him to arrange for someone to send a message to the princess's residence and send back some fruits picked from the manor.

Pei Hao was sitting in a teahouse drinking tea today.    This street is the only way for the little girl to go home.

I didn't see the little girl for more than half a day, but waited for the Pei Jiawei to return with a letter.

 Open it and take a look.

Pei Hao’s mouth corners were slightly raised, and his mood was very bright.

 The letter written by the little girl finally became normal and no longer as perfunctory as before. This is a good sign. So Pei Hao thought happily that he would tell the little girl often if he had any gossip in the future, and he could still write letters if it was inconvenient to meet, right?

Pei Hao read the letter again and again, "The little girl's handwriting has improved."

Not bad!

You should write to him more often...

Mu Si'an, who was sitting opposite, looked at his cousin who was smiling like a fool. He really wanted to cover his face and say he didn't know this guy.

How could such a cold and serious person become like this?

Mu Si'an looked at Hu San.

Hu looked at his nose and heart with three eyes, as if he saw nothing.

Mu Si’an couldn’t help but show his teeth at him!

Hu San happened to raise his head and saw him baring his teeth. He touched the back of his head and said with a silly smile, "Mr. Mu, what's going on? Are your teeth sore?"

 “Sour! Very sour!” Mu Si’an continued to show his teeth.

Pei Hao suddenly raised his head and asked, "What's sour?"

Hu Sanhan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Mu said his teeth are sore."

“…” Mu Si’an almost kicked him.

This evil-hearted guy is always trying to trick him!

Mu Si'an turned around and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, what did the princess say?"

"I didn't say anything. I just greeted me, showed concern, and asked me to treat me to something to eat when she comes back." Pei Hao elegantly picked up the tea bowl and asked whether he wanted to drink it. He looked troubled, "Little girl Well, it’s just a bit annoying, but otherwise it’s pretty good.”

Mu Si'an saw Pei Hao pretending to be distressed.

This time it really makes my teeth sore!

 It’s about showing off, yes, it’s just showing off!

 We waited for another two hours.

The sun is gradually moving to the west and is about to set on the top of the mountain.

Pei Hao's brows furrowed slightly, "Hu San, please ask someone to go to the princess's mansion to find out if the princess will really come back today? It's so late, why hasn't she arrived yet? I'm worried that something will happen to her on the way."

 “Yes, Crown Prince.”

Hu San turned around and went out to give orders.

 At this hour, it is indeed time for the princess to return to the city.

Since he has not returned yet, Pei Hao is reasonably worried.

Mu Si'an said: "The princess brings a lot of personal guards every time, so there will be no problem. What you should worry about now is yourself."

"What can I do?" Pei Hao looked at the street in confusion.

Mu Si'an's mouth twitched, "You are not going to the Yamen now as an excuse to recuperate. You have been here all day today, so you'd better go to the Yamen tomorrow, otherwise it will spread to the Emperor and have a bad impact."

"Then I'll go to the Yamen tomorrow." Pei Hao was helpless.

 It is inconvenient for people who work as errands due to time constraints.

 Is he thinking about resigning?

About half an hour later, the man who went to the princess's house to inquire came back and said that the princess would not be returning tonight.

Pei Hao was in a bad mood and stood up suddenly, "Let's leave the city."

 “Where to go?” Mu Si’an asked.

Pei Hao said with unclear meaning: "It's time to travel around the mountains and rivers to relax and recuperate." It's a good time to go there tonight. He can come back with the little girl tomorrow.

Mu Si'an and others had no choice but to do so.

As a result, when Mu Si'an was about to mount his horse, Pei Hao stopped him and said, "Si'an, don't follow me. Go to the Yamen on duty tomorrow morning and keep an eye on it for me. You will have full authority to handle Yamen affairs for the time being."

"…"grass!

 You go play and I work, are you okay with that?

 Just be a human being, okay? !
