Chapter 271 Almost Amused Du Qian

 After half an hour.

Du Wan left the princess mansion in a good mood.

He still wears a long sword on his waist, but he has a small cloth bag on his shoulder, which is filled with all kinds of snacks.

Went to Tianlao again.

Du Qian did not chat with the jailer this time, but chatted with some criminals, all of whom had been officials in the court. Naturally, these people had seen Du Qian's giant Buddha.

Perhaps these people have been officials for a long time and are very suspicious. Most of the topics he chatted with Du Qian were romantic affairs, and he didn't mention anything about officialdom.

Du Qian finally understood. These people were either frightened or wary of him.

Feeling that it’s not interesting anymore, I was about to stand up——

“Brother, what are you doing? Uncle asked you to reflect, have you reflected?” Du Wan stood not far away with her arms crossed and looked at him angrily.

Du Qian touched the tip of his nose and stood up with a guilty conscience, "Butler, why are you here again? This prison is not a good place."

 “Huh, who am I doing this for?”

Du Wan looked so worried that she almost made Du Qian laugh, and the play could hardly continue.

However, Du Qian still obediently reflected on it.

  When others thought that Du Wan was leaving with her elder brother.

The little girl did not follow the rules and patrolled around in a very grand manner with her little hands behind her back. Then she stopped in front of Old Man Zhou's cell without asking the jailer to open the door.

When Old Man Zhou saw the little girl, his eyes suddenly lit up. He crawled to the cell door and shouted excitedly, "Princess! Are you back so soon?"

 “That’s it. It’s done.”

Du Wan looked around like a thief, then carefully took out the approval note stamped by the emperor from his body, spread it out for Old Man Zhou to see, but did not allow him to reach out to take it.

 Old man Zhou was an official, and he recognized the emperor's handwriting at a glance, as well as the familiar big seal. Wait until you see the content above clearly...

 Old man Zhou was so excited that his face turned red and he burst into tears.

 “Woo woo,…”

 Old man Zhou covered his face and started crying.

Du Wan was a little surprised when he saw his reaction, but after thinking about it, he thought it was nothing. When a person accepts death and suddenly no longer has to die, it is normal to lose his temper temporarily.

 Put away the emperor's approval note again.

Du Wanqing coughed and said in a low voice: "As long as your list is OK, you can go out in three days. Do you want me to give you a small favor and arrange a carriage to take you home?"

"May I?"

“It’s nothing, you are a big customer of mine.”

Du Wan thought for a while, whether he should give some more settlement allowance at that time. Otherwise, in the winter, the whole family will become pauper, how will they live.

 Old man Zhou wiped away his tears, knelt down towards Du Wan, and kowtowed a few times, "Thank you, Princess, you are the great benefactor of my Zhou family."

"What kind of benefactor, I am not." Du Wancai would not admit it, "Fair deal, do you understand? After leaving this prison, you and I will not know each other."

"Yes Yes Yes."

 Old man Zhou nodded repeatedly.

Du Wan pretended not to notice the man in the cell behind her, who was staring at her back excitedly.

 Judging from Old Man Zhou’s reaction just now, it seems like it’s done?

So, can he?

 He ​​was originally a suspicious person, but Old Man Zhou never left the cell, and the transaction between him and the princess was completed under his eyes.

There are also things that the princess took out just now. Old man Zhou saw it and was very excited.

 Must be something very important? !

 When the princess leaves, he must ask Old Man Zhou clearly.

Du Wan ignored Old Man Zhou, put his little hands on his back again, and walked away with great dignity. As she walked, she paid attention to Old Man Zhou's movements. Sure enough, the neighboring prisoner couldn't help but say, "Zhou Changlu, if you have something good, you can't hide it. You have to tell everyone. We also want to take advantage of it."

 “Yes, yes! Tell me quickly.”

“Zhou Changlu, we usually have a good relationship, right?”

“…Brother, what good did I do before? The first thing I thought of was you.”

   …”

 Old man Zhou did not speak or respond.

A man was walking around the cell excitedly, trying to laugh loudly, but trying hard to stop himself. All this could be seen clearly by the person in the cell opposite.

Now that person can be sure that Old Man Zhou has really taken the path of the princess...

 He rushed to the cell door, holding tightly on the railing with both hands, "Old man Zhou!"

 Old Zhou was so frightened by this shout that he stopped moving and turned to look at the man, "Old Xu, what's the matter with you?"

 “What did the princess show you just now?”

"yes-"

 Old man Zhou was about to say something, but then he closed his mouth.

 He hasn't gone out yet, and something may change if he doesn't really implement it.

The man knew it was hard for him to tell, but he had to know this matter. "I can guess it even if you don't tell me. I saw the transaction between you and the princess from beginning to end."

"Old Xu, since you already know everything, why bother asking me? You can just go to the princess directly. At least there is a chance of survival." Old man Zhou deliberately lowered his voice and spoke.

Hearing this, Du Wan's little face showed a bright smile.

 This time, she was in no hurry to go on patrol.

 Go back to Du Qian's cell, sit cross-legged on the bed, and start practicing.

 Her cultivation is different from Du Qian's.

Du Qian is practicing those movements, and Du Wan is practicing the magic technique.

After practicing every day, there is no visible progress as before, and the harvest is like a feather. However, she still insists on practicing for at least an hour every day.

 Time passes during cultivation.

Du Wan closed her eyes and sat cross-legged with her knees bent, as steady as a rock.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Du Qian felt that this time he was practicing more smoothly than before and that he was recovering faster. The only difference is that he has a younger sister by his side. He was keenly aware that it would be more comfortable to stay with his sister. Maybe it had something to do with the skills that his sister practiced? Whether it is as guessed or not remains to be confirmed in the future.

 Just at this moment, there were footsteps approaching here.

Du Qian didn't want anyone to disturb his sister's practice, so he quickly stood up, straightened his robes and walked out of the cell door. Sure enough, he saw a jailer leading a eunuch.

Du Qian raised his hand to stop the **** from talking, led them farther away from the cell, and then asked: "What are you doing in Tianlao?"

"It's the master of Jinxiu Palace who woke up and said he wanted to see the princess."

“…She’s awake, what’s she doing to see my sister?”

Du Qian didn't want his sister to go there. He didn't go to see Huang Lian, so he was sent to the prison under a conspiracy. If his sister went to see him, might he become a murderer again?

 Send away the young eunuch.

Du Qian did not disturb Du Wan's practice.

 After waiting for a while, three groups of eunuchs came.

 The last trip was made by the chief eunuch, and this time it was someone sent by the emperor. Du Qian now realized that things at Huang Lian's side were not simple.

Du Qian could only go back to his cell.

Just in time to see Du Wan finish her practice, she opened her beautiful big eyes.
