The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 490 Is the elder brother still angry?

Du Wan said firmly, "Pei Hao and I were the first to go to the secret room. We found the secret rooms at the back, and no one knew what was inside better than me. Why didn't my uncle give me a few pieces? Where are the gold bricks, so stingy."

 “What are you talking about?” the eldest princess scolded.

Du Wan raised the corners of her lips, "I also wanted to take a few gold bricks and put them at home as trophies. At least I found them."

The eldest princess smiled and said, "Come on, these things are the most appropriate."

"What my mother said is absolutely true, these are enough..." Du Qian agreed very much.

Even if the emperor dared to give away the gold and silver, they would not dare to ask for it and would definitely send it back.

At this time, Prince Consort Du spoke again, "Wanwan, pick some and send them to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion for Chengming."

"Didn't uncle give it to him?" Du Wan was surprised, "In terms of rewards for merit, he should have a share."

Du Huima was funny, "This matter will not be publicized, and there will be no rewards on the surface."

Du Qian continued with a smile, "Father, why don't you tell me clearly that the emperor is very happy today, and it would be nice to think of us."

“…” The eldest princess partially covered her face with a handkerchief and kept laughing.

Du Wan felt a little sympathy for Pei Hao now. After working hard for a while, he couldn't get any benefits. However, according to what Du Huima said, she took out 30% of the things and prepared to send them to Pei Hao tomorrow. The remaining paintings and calligraphy were taken away by Du Huma.

Du Wan and Du Qian just picked some that they liked.

 Most of it went into the public treasury.

 Such a toss-up, it's already the third day of the night.

 Lying in Yulingyuan, Du Wan looked out the hazy window.

What happened during the day was unexpected by her. It was far from what she expected. She was a little worried in her heart. Du Qian and the others believed in the emperor, but she was somewhat influenced by the original work and had insufficient confidence in the emperor. "Forget it." Well, think of it as helping the emperor."

Whether it is good or bad, we will know later.

 You can’t reject the emperor just because of the original work.

Du Wan pulled the quilt over his head, not wanting to dwell on the matter anymore.

After being quiet for a while, Du Wan suddenly sat up again, "Fuck! There seems to be something more important... Why did I forget it? What on earth was it?"

 Early the next morning, when I was sleeping in a daze.

There was a small exclamation from the servants outside, "Is it snowing?"

 “It’s so cold.”

 “Assign someone to clear the snow from the yard.”

　　　…”

 It is the noise caused by the servants.

Normally speaking, the master's house is inaudible, but Du Wan is very good at hearing. She could hear sounds within a certain range at any time, and she didn't need to concentrate to listen.

Du Wan stood up, dressed neatly, and walked to the window.

 Pushing open the window, a biting cold hit her face, making her shiver.

There are still small snowflakes floating in the sky, and the snow is as white as the eye can see. Everything in the courtyard seems to be wrapped in silver.

Ningqin came in, "Princess, are you awake? Close the window quickly, don't get cold."

 “This is the first snow in Beijing.”

"Yeah, it came so suddenly." Ningqin brought in the hot water for washing, Luoqi quickly prepared towels, etc. Du Wan closed the window and went over to brush her teeth, rinse her mouth and wash her face honestly.

 Last night after I came back, I was lying in bed thinking about something, and fell asleep unknowingly. It was too late to get up this morning. If I had practiced at this time in the past, I would have already practiced.

After washing up, Ningqin and Luoqi started to clean up.

Du Wan sat down at the table, picked up a bowl of ginseng tea and drank it. Then Shuxiang and Painting came over with food boxes and put them on the table one by one. It was today's breakfast.

Ningqin asked, "Will the princess go over to pay her respects to the eldest princess?"

"I won't go. It's getting cold. Let mother have a good rest. After you have breakfast, go to the main courtyard and say that the princess will go to the Zhenguo Palace later." Du Wan thought of today. I want to give something to Pei Hao. Ningqin responded, "Don't you need a servant to follow you?"

"Need not."

 The weather is so cold, so forget it.

If it hadn't been agreed upon earlier, Du Wan wouldn't have wanted to go out. He ate breakfast unhurriedly, put on a mink fur cloak, pulled up his hood, and went out neatly.

As soon as I walked out to the front yard, I met Du Qian standing there.

Du Qian's look was obviously waiting for her, "Sister, are you going out?"

"Yes, I told you last night that I was going to deliver something to Pei Hao." Du Wan took a few strides and came to stand next to Du Qian. "Brother, you want to go out too?"

 “Well, I’ll go with you.”

　　　…”No need.

Du Wan refused in her heart, but when she saw the cheap brother's eyes that looked right through her, she had to nod. In this era, it is normal for a biological sister to go out with her elder brother.

 Four carriages were parked outside the courtyard.

 The car in front is for people, and the three cars behind are filled with things for Pei Hao.

Du Wan saw that her eldest brother had already prepared everything, and she was even more speechless. She obediently got into the carriage, and soon Du Qian followed him into the carriage.

Du Wan blinked, "Brother, don't you ride a horse?"

“Are you happy to come in and stay with you?” Du Qian shook the snowflakes off his body.

Du Wan's mouth twitched, "Happy."

"Well, just be happy." Du Qian sat down, saw the snowflakes on Du Wan's shoulders, and patted them with his big hand, "I thought that since my sister had a husband, she would no longer recognize me as my eldest brother."

 “Why do you have such an idea?”

 “I had it yesterday…”

“…” Du Wan was choked for a moment, feeling a little guilty.

It turned out that what happened yesterday had not been revealed yet. She thought it had been. Then Du Wan searched around for a long time and found a green jade flute.

This jade flute is very exquisite and unique, in the shape of Buddhist bamboo.

I got it in the Taolin yesterday. Du Wan liked it at first sight. It is her only private treasure. "Brother, I gave it to you. Do you like it?"

 “You gave it to me especially?” Du Qian was surprised.

Du Wan would also say yes, "Yes, I fell in love with this jade flute at first sight and thought it would be a perfect match for my elder brother."

"Really?" Du Qian raised the corner of his mouth, "My sister has good taste."

 Of course not bad!

Out of so many things yesterday, Du Wan only picked out this one. No one knows about it, not without reason, because this jade flute is surrounded by spiritual energy.

Du Qian played with the jade flute and quickly discovered the difference.

Sure enough, his sister was the best to him. First she gave him a bracelet from Master Yuantong, and now she gave him a precious jade flute.

 Hmph, even those with the surname Pei should stay behind!

Du Wan said flatteringly: "Is the elder brother still angry?"

 “I’m not angry anymore.” Du Qian smiled heartily.

At this time, he automatically ignored the three carts of things behind him. They were gifts given by his father as a reminder to his sister, not as a gift from her sister. Sometimes there are too many things and they don’t show their value.

Du Qian finally swept away the gloom of yesterday and carefully put the jade flute into his arms.

Seeing this, Du Wan secretly wiped his hands in a cold sweat.

This time it's overturned, right?

 Finally...it's over, right?
