The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 269 The emperor eats melon seeds in front of him

Du Wan only felt that he had learned a lot, "Old man Zhou made a good start. He got his affairs done first, and the next people are not afraid that they will not take the bait."

 “I’ll let someone do it.”

Du Qian walked outside the prison, turned back, and looked at his sister steadily.

Du Wan's heart was agitated at the sight, "Brother, just tell me what you want to do. Don't always look at people like that, it's scary."

 Suddenly, Du Qian smiled and said, "My sister is the best."

 He handed Old Man Zhou's list to Du Wan.

Du Wan took it and looked at him doubtfully, "Why give it to me?"

"I forgot that I'm still in jail and can't get out. This is a hard thing for my sister." Du Qian smiled deeply.

Du Wan put the list away and whispered in confusion, "Didn't uncle say he would let you go?"

"This is just a small fish, but it's still far away. Besides, if I don't stay in prison, what excuse can my sister use to hang around in the sky prison?"

 “That makes sense.”

It was then that Du Wan discovered that she was the one who executed the plan the two of them had made! The role of the cheap brother is to stay in the prison as a shield, giving her a logical excuse to go in and out of the prison.

　　Why do you feel like you are being calculated?

What Du Wan was thinking was immediately revealed on her little face, and she glanced at Du Qian with suspicious eyes.

Du Qian said with a guilty conscience: "Sister, what's going on with that look in your eyes?"

 “No, it’s okay.”

 Who told him to be her eldest brother? Just pamper me, alas.

Du Wan shook her head, put her little hands on her back, looked up at 45 degrees and walked outside.

 It is dusk now.

 The lonely clouds in the west gradually disappear, and the cold wind blows.

Du Wan was not afraid of the cold and swayed until she reached the imperial study room.

 The emperor's angry voice was heard outside, and he was losing his temper at someone. The palace servants guarding outside were so frightened that they didn't dare to raise their heads.

Du Wan suddenly became energetic.

 Gossip? !

Du Wan approached quietly.

The little **** next to him was so frightened that he almost jumped up. Fortunately, he covered his mouth quickly and said, "Princess, Princess, what are you..."

 “What’s going on in there?”

“…” The little **** shook his head and said nothing.

Du Wan knew the rules, so she stopped asking.

Just because she didn’t ask didn’t mean she couldn’t ask for something. “Go, bring me a plate of sunflower seeds.”

“Yes, Princess, wait a moment.”

 The little **** fled away as if he was running away.

He left so quickly and came back so quickly that he didn’t even know where he got the melon seeds from.

Du Wan took it and started to drink it. Inside were some ministers of the imperial court, discussing material matters for disaster relief. Originally, Xie Zhang was going to set off today, but before departure, Xie Zhang insisted on personally checking the disaster relief supplies. As a result, this inspection directly stirred up a hornet's nest.

Not only was there not enough money, but the grain was old, there was nothing we could do about it. Half of the problem was moldy, and it was also mixed with a lot of sand and gravel, making it impossible to eat. There is also a problem with a batch of cold-proof clothing, and the number does not match the disaster relief list.

Du Wan felt that these officials were greedy and brainless. At this time, there are still people who are not afraid of death and rush forward?

Du Wan was eating melon seeds and listening to the opera.

 Listen, listen, the chief **** comes out.

 The old **** said respectfully: "Princess, the emperor has invited you."

 “Uh.” Du Wan didn’t want to go in.

However, the emperor shouted, and she had no choice but to go in.

So, in the eyes of the officials in the Imperial Study Room, a beautiful little girl came in with a plate of sunflower seeds. She also raised a white paw and waved to Pei Hao next to her as a greeting. . Beside Pei Hao, there is also Xie Zhang!

Pei Hao was amused. His eyes fell on the corner of the little girl's beautiful mouth, where a piece of melon seed shell was stuck. Then he looked at the little girl and raised his finger to point at the corner of his mouth.

Du Wan understood it in her heart, and immediately wiped the corners of her mouth with her little hand.

 Sure enough, I wiped off the melon seed shells.

Du Wan obediently stepped forward to greet the emperor, then held the melon seeds and sat upright on the small embroidered pier next to the emperor. Her waist was straight, and she held a melon seed in her little hand and wanted to put it in her mouth to eat, but was afraid of getting it. I'm so confused when I speak out.

 The emperor was very upset at first, but when he saw the little girl's appearance, he suddenly felt happy. A restless heart unexpectedly found peace.

Du Wan's eyes widened, "Uncle, please do your work, I'll just watch."

“You can take it if you want.” The emperor said indulgently.

Du Wan shook his little head and said, "Let's forget it. When we are so serious, the sound of cracking melon seeds suddenly comes out. That would be so embarrassing."

 The emperor was startled for a moment, then smiled.

Du Wan looked at the minister standing below, bowing his head and bending over, not daring to stand up straight.

 I didn’t see the cheap father, which is good. It means that this matter has nothing to do with him.

Then, the emperor didn't want to worry anymore and appointed a minister with full authority to investigate. He also claimed that the investigation was not clear and asked him to bring it up to the meeting.

Du Wan thought that the phrase "come to see me with your head up" would only appear on TV.

  I didn’t expect to see the real version now.

Du Wan glanced sympathetically at the minister who had been entrusted with the important task. That little look in her eyes was so obvious that anyone who paid a little attention to her could see it.

Pei Hao quickly lowered his head and wanted to laugh.

 You must hold back!

Xie Zhang also noticed the lively and gentle look of the little girl, and then lowered his eyelids to cover up the look under his eyes.

 The emperor naturally noticed it.

This is being pitied by a little girl, oh, what a good idea!

The emperor added: "It is better to provide disaster relief sooner rather than later."

“Your Majesty, I have a suggestion.” Xie Zhang stood up.

For problems in disaster areas, this batch of materials should be put aside as evidence first, and then another batch of the same amount of materials will be allocated for disaster relief. After the replaced disaster relief materials are found out, they will be blocked with the recovered ones. This back and forth not only solves the problem, but also does not delay the disaster relief time.

 The emperor thought for a while and agreed.

 The minister who investigated the case almost scolded Xie Zhang to death. Xie Zhang's idea was good, but the pressure was placed on the people who went to investigate.

Du Wan understood, and her sympathetic eyes were even more sympathetic.

How pitiful you are. Do you have any grudge against Xie Qi?

 The emperor gave Xie Zhang another day and asked him to set off as soon as possible.

 Sent away a group of ministers.

Before Xie Zhang left, he glanced at Du Wan secretly. His eyes were so calm that no one could see anything unusual.

Pei Hao said goodbye to Du Wan openly.

When everyone left, Du Wan could finally eat melon seeds. "Uncle, I heard from Old Man Zhou today. He said that if he didn't join in the dirty work, grass would grow on his grave."

  “…” The emperor’s expression froze slightly.

 He had expected it, but actually hearing it was another matter.

If another person said this, the emperor might get angry, but this person was Du Wan, so he thought deeply, "Wanwan came to see your uncle, is there something wrong?"

 "Yes. Here." Du Wan took out a list.

 The emperor took it and read it again, "Is it done so quickly?"

"It belongs to Old Man Zhou alone." Du Wan is just a hole. As long as he opens it, the rest is no problem. "I asked him if he had harmed anyone, and he said no, he was just greedy for some money."

 “What did you promise him?” the emperor asked the key point.
