Chapter 279: I have to rush forward to die.

Du Wan asked casually: "When will the princess return to the palace?"

“We have to wait for Liu Jin to be escorted to Beijing to identify people face to face, and the road is not easy to travel in heavy snow.” This means that there will be a delay of some days on the road in heavy snow.

“Then you said just now that he confessed—”

"It's a recruitment. He hasn't arrived in the capital yet, so the news came back first." Pei Hao glanced at the glutinous rice dumplings in her hand, and he reached for a piece and tried to eat it, "Did you give Brother Du a lot of money? "

 He also saw the gossip just now.

 The reason was that the little girl gave Du Qian a large sum of money.

  Du Qian was chased and beaten by his father-in-law when he went to show off his skills in front of him.

Du Wan had nothing to hide from Pei Hao, so he directly told Huang Lian about the compensation, "I am not short of money, so I gave the seal to my elder brother and asked him to get it."

 “Huang Lian is very good at doing business and makes a lot of money.”

 “My eldest brother wants to enclose the fiefdom and needs a lot of money.”

 “Enclose it?” Pei Hao thought thoughtfully.

Du Wan smiled and said, "Yes, you can build your own back garden and do whatever you want with it."

   …”

Pei Hao thought that when the next morning court meeting was held, someone might jump out to oppose the emperor's move.

 The two imperial edicts issued yesterday may seem simple, but they are not.

Taking Du Qian’s fiefdom as an example, it was still under the official jurisdiction before, and it still acted in accordance with the rules and regulations, and no one would have any objections. Now that the imperial decree has been issued, the nature has changed, from official to private, with no taxation, and complete autonomy given to him. In other words, in Du Qian's fiefdom, he is the king.

 It is a small area with a population of only five thousand.

However, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. If someone eats the meat, will there be less pinkeye?

This matter will definitely create a big whirlpool in the court.

 Besides, Du Wan's imperial edict was considered a special favor, and it could be said that it outshone the Queen. But she is a girl, and with Du Qian at the front, there won't be any problem.

Pei Hao whispered these analyzes to her.

I thought she would take it to heart, but she smiled sarcastically and said, "It's okay. These people can't make waves. Maybe they will be imprisoned by my uncle sometime."

 “…” Pei Hao was silent.

 In the second half of the year, the emperor arrested officials one after another.

 The number of officials in the capital has been cut by one-third, and there are some official positions that have not been filled by suitable people. However, he came here to see the little girl, why did he talk about these terrible things?

Luo Qi then came over with lowered eyebrows and said, "Princess, Miss Qin Jiu and the eldest daughter of the Wu family would like to see you."

 “Are you here as a gift?” Du Wan asked.

Luo Qi lowered his head and said, "I came here with a gift."

 “Okay! Invite them to the main hall.”

  “Yes, Princess.”

  After losing the chess piece, retreat.

Pei Hao wiped his hands with a wet handkerchief, "Wanwan, I still have things to do, so I'm going to leave first." When he stood up, he took off the jade pendant on his body.

 Bend down and put it on her waist.

Du Wan asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

“Congratulations.” Pei Hao was satisfied to see that she had something that belonged to him.

Du Wan lowered his head and looked at the jade pendant, "It looks very expensive."

"I don't like it even if it's not expensive." Pei Hao saw another jade pendant on her waist that was pressed up against her skirt. With some thoughts, he took it and said, "Reciprocity is a courtesy. Also, the jade pendant I gave you last time. , why haven’t I seen you wearing it? Is it missing?”

Du Wan was originally struggling with how he could steal her jade pendant.

It looks like they are exchanging tokens with each other, which always feels weird. Just when she was about to say something, she heard him ask about the jade pendant from last time. Du Wan thought about it and replied, "It's still in the house. It's not missing."

 “…” Pei Hao felt inexplicably sweet.

 The little girl didn't throw it away, she still cared about him.

Pei Hao reluctantly left, and Du Wan turned around to meet the guest.

Qin Jiu and another dignified and gentle girl Wu were present.

 The servants brought them hot water and snacks.

When Du Wan stepped into the hall, the two of them stood up to greet each other and greeted Du Wanfu one after another. Du Wan told them not to be polite and glanced at Qin Jiu, "What have you been doing recently? Your face is not fat anymore."

Qin Jiu wanted to rush up to her and say, "Bah," "Do you want to fight? Can a woman call someone fat?"

 “You are not allowed to say you are fat, you have to be honest.”

"Not fat! I have never been fat, never fat! My face was round before, with a little bit of baby fat." Qin Jiu worked hard to learn martial arts during this period, and his body lost weight, he grew taller, and his face became thinner After a while, I thought it looked better than before.

Du Wan raised the corner of her mouth in a false way, "Isn't fat just fat?"

“…” Qin Jiu stared at her threateningly, as if he wanted to fight her.

Du Wan couldn't help but laugh.

With the mentality of a senior, he raised his attitude and said seriously: "Xiao Jiu, do you want to fight with me?"

"I haven't had a fight with you for a long time. How many moves do you want to do?" Qin Jiu was very confident.

 In order to defeat Du Wan, she has been practicing martial arts diligently.

Originally, she wanted to discuss it with Du Wan next time, but Du Wan's attitude made her change her mind.

Du Wan hesitated, "Well, it's not that I don't want to discuss with you, it's because I'm afraid you will be hit."

Qin Jiu almost laughed out of anger, "The fight hasn't started yet, how do you know you can definitely beat me? In previous fights, I won more and you won less. Where did you get the confidence today? You will definitely beat me."

Du Wan always thought that she was a kind-hearted little girl. She didn't want to hurt her friends, so she reminded her kindly. As a result, her friends became even more angry and insisted on trying to kill herself.

 She is really difficult!

Yu Ling Yuan is not suitable for fighting.

Du Wan took Qin Jiu to the martial arts training hall. The eldest daughter of the Wu family was a gentle girl. She had heard that the princess and Qin Jiu were mortal enemies and often fought. We just reconciled recently and we still go shopping together. Now it seems that the rumors are not credible, and they will still fight when they meet.

Even the princess didn’t even pay attention to her as a guest.

He looked at the princess and Qin Jiu who were walking in front.

Miss Wu and her personal maid walked behind.

The maid whispered on behalf of her master, "Miss, how could they..."

 The master was ignored and neglected, and the maid was very unhappy.

On the other hand, Miss Wu looked gentle and gentle, not angry, "Watch your words and deeds, and you won't have to follow me again in the future."

   “A slave is just a substitute for his master and is not worth it.”

"What's not worth it? It's already a great honor to be able to see the princess through Qin Jiu today. Go out and take a look at the gate, how many visitors have never even seen the master's face."

 “…” The maid lowered her head and did not dare to speak.

Miss Wu came here with a purpose. How could she back down just because of a little neglect?

 Qin Jiu confidently went to the martial arts training hall with Du Wan.

 She wanted to fight with Du Wan a few times, and also fantasized about teaching Du Wan a lesson so that Du Wan would respect her more in the future.
