The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 368 Rebels are attacking at night

　　Du Wan was a little worried when she heard that the other party had made a mistake, "What mistake did he make?"

“Eight years ago, a pregnant concubine was put to death.” Hu San said truthfully.

 “Then he—” These words made Du Wan even more worried.

Hu San further explained, "He was wrongly accused. It was later found out that the anti-fetal drugs had been changed, so the emperor agreed to change the death penalty to five years of exile. In fact, the time of exile had passed long ago, but he was not very good at it." I want to go back to Beijing."

“Then he has no relatives in the capital?”

“Yes. But when he was convicted, those relatives were eager to cut ties with him.” Hu San sighed when he told this past incident.

Du Wan somewhat understood. Perhaps for this reason, the old doctor was disheartened. He would rather stay in the southwest border and accept an apprentice to provide for him until the end of his life, rather than return to the capital.

As long as Du Wan knows that the old doctor is fine, he will feel relieved.

 Waiting for the old doctor to come out with a tired look on his face, "Prince Pei's condition is not stable yet. You should watch carefully and notify me if the fever breaks out again."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, doctor. You go and have a rest first." Du Wan said gratefully.

 The old doctor and his apprentice walked out of the room carrying the medicine box.

Pei Hao was on the bed, his wounds had been re-bandaged.

Du Wan approached lightly, pulled a quilt from the end of the bed, and carefully covered Pei Hao. Then a chair was moved to the side of the bed, and she sat on it. It seemed that she had no intention of leaving for the time being.

Hu San whispered: "Princess, you didn't sleep all night last night. Do you want to go to the guest room to rest first? Your subordinates will take care of the prince's place first."

"It's okay, I'm energetic." Before he woke up, Du Wan didn't think about leaving. "Go and rest, and come back for me in the evening."

 “Okay.” Hu San did not insist anymore.

 Compared to himself, he felt that the prince was safer with Du Wan guarding him.

Hu San has not forgotten that they are still in Taichu County, which is still the territory of the rebels. In fact, he wanted to take his master out of Taichu County at this time, but it was obviously not possible because Pei Hao's injury was too serious.

 Only Du Wan remained in the room.

Du Wan looked at the unconscious Pei Hao and was very worried. There are also some complications in his heart. If it weren't for the divorce, Pei Hao wouldn't have taken the risk and almost lost his life.

 So the day came to an end.

Du Wan sat by the bed and touched Pei Hao's forehead from time to time, fearing that he would get fever again.

 The guards brought us food along the way, which were ordinary steamed buns, porridge, side dishes, etc. Du Wan didn't show any pretense and ate everything. Towards evening, before Pei Hao woke up, the old doctor came over to check his pulse and prescribed some medicine.

 After the decoction is ready, it is a bit difficult to feed it.

Du Wan sat on the head of the bed, half-lifted Pei Hao, and carefully leaned on his shoulder.

 Fed him the medicine one spoonful after another.

 So a person in a coma will still instinctively swallow when fed something.

　　When the last spoonful was fed, Du Wan was still thinking about whether he should feed the medicine by mouth if he couldn't drink the medicine when he was in a coma. "Some novels and TV series...are not necessarily correct."

Isn’t this a good drink?

Du Wan put the spoon down and gently asked him to lie down.

Hu San happened to come in in a hurry and saw this scene, "Princess, has the prince finished drinking the medicine?"

He heard that the prince wanted to drink medicine, so he woke up and rushed to the house. He originally wanted to come and serve the prince to drink medicine, but he didn't expect that the princess had already done it. That's fine, it's better than his rough hands and feet.

Du Wan nodded towards him and thought of something else, "Have you contacted Mu Si'an about this matter?"

"The news has been spread." Hu San contacted Mu Si'an last night.

Next, Hu San said that after Du Wan entered the city alone a few days ago, they were going to the agreed place to wait for someone. On the way, they met the secret guards of the Pei family, and together with the guards, they were discussing how to sneak into the city. Who knew what happened next? The next day, Taichu County lifted the ban inexplicably, and Du Wan also knew what happened next. Hu San added: "We have cooked red date porridge in the kitchen, and we can eat it when the prince wakes up."

 “Yeah.” Du Wan nodded after hearing this.

Hu San asked tentatively: "Isn't the princess sleepy?"

"A little bit. I'll go over there to rest. Call me if you need anything." Du Wan went to the small cubicle in the house.

It is clearly said to be a partition, but it is just blocked by a large screen. There is a low couch inside, and there is a bookshelf next to it with some books. She didn't care much about it, and sat cross-legged on the low couch to meditate, practicing silently.

During the days since arriving in Taichu County, Du Wan has been practicing instead of sleeping.

 She only practiced for an hour, and she was an energetic little fairy again. I came out of the cubicle and asked about Pei Hao's condition. Fortunately, Pei Hao's condition improved faster than expected.

Probably because of the bowl of medicine given by the old doctor, he did not have any fever at night.

Du Wan still had the foresight to guard Pei Hao here.

 In the middle of the night, a group of thugs sneaked in with the intention of robbing something. There was a fight with the guards of the Pei family, and then countless rebels surrounded the area.

On the surface, he wanted to capture the gangsters, but his true intention could not be concealed from Du Wan.

Du Wan discovered from their private conversation that they were here for Pei Hao and her, and wanted to capture them and put them in prison in order to deal with the imperial army.

Hu San was standing outside the door and saw Du Wan walking out, "Princess Princess, why don't you take the prince and leave first?"

 “Leave? How to leave?”

Du Wan looked at him with a half-smile.

 Hu San was glad that he had not shaved off his beard, "The princess has great powers and must have some ideas."

“No matter how powerful you are, you can’t withstand the tens of thousands of rebels outside.”

 “More than ten thousand?” Hu San’s expression changed drastically.

 He guessed that there were many rebels outside, but he did not expect so many.

How could they escape like this?

Du Wan's smile faded and she said sternly: "It's a lie that they want to catch the gangsters, the target is us."

 “So what now?”

"What can we do? Have all the criminals who broke in been dealt with?" When Du Wan asked this, he looked outside and heard the sound of fighting.

Hu San said solemnly: "Not yet."

"Forget it, let them all withdraw and protect the prince."

 “But the princess—”

Hu San was about to say something, but when he met the princess’s cool gaze, he immediately shut up and did as he was told.

Du Wan stepped out of the yard and flew onto the roof.

She lifted up a tile, broke off a small piece, and crushed it into several small pieces with her hands. With a wave of her hand, the broken tiles became deadly weapons, killing anyone who tried to sneak into the yard. Kill the murderers one by one. In fact, these people were bandits recruited by the rebels, and some people deliberately let them sneak in to lead the charge.

They are all not good people, so Du Wan takes action without mercy.

Waiting for Hu San to lead dozens of Pei family secret guards to withdraw.

Du Wan did not hesitate any longer and used his Qing Kung Fu to move towards the location of the general commanded by the rebels.
