The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince Chapter 71

Chapter 71: The child who cries has sweets to eat

 That night.

 Du Wan was not asleep and had been practicing.

　Until early the next morning, without even eating breakfast, Du Qian drove him into the carriage.

 Hundreds of guards from the princess's palace came to the gate of Wangyue Tower.

 Another bodyguard from the Pei family came.

The two mansions came together, and the formation was quite large. The people who were watching were so frightened that they just looked at it from a distance and did not dare to get close.

Du Wan got into the carriage and saw the eldest princess and Prince Consort Du. She couldn't help but be stunned: "Mom and dad, why are you here?"

 The eldest princess hugged her silently.

Du Huima's face was serious, "Wanwan, your mother stayed up all night last night and was frightened again. If I hadn't stopped her, she would have gone out of the city to pick you up last night."

 “Mother and father are worried.” Du Wan looked a little at a loss.

The eldest princess patted her back and said, "Mom, it's okay. Don't listen to your father's nonsense."

Du Wan said guiltily: "I would have known that I would not have listened to my elder brother last night and went back overnight."

"Nonsense! You are still young. You have to listen to your brother when you go out." Du Fuma lectured seriously, but his voice was very soft.

Du Wan glanced at Cheap Daddy secretly.

 Since returning to the capital, she has accepted her brother and recognized her as a princess, but she still has not had much contact with her cheap father. This father likes to keep a straight face and be serious and upright most of the time, except when facing the princess.

However, Du Wan was stupid enough to refute what his elders said, and said obediently: "Yes, father is right."

Du Prince Consort felt unnatural for a moment.

I probably didn't expect his daughter to be so talkative. His previous daughters would most likely talk back to him.

 At this time, Pei Hao came out.

Du Wan looked at him through the car curtain.

At this time, he changed into a navy blue brocade robe, which was cold and noble. Behind him were still followed by Mu Si'an and Hu San, as well as a group of guards from the Pei family.

Pei Hao suddenly raised his eyes and looked towards Du Wan, and happened to catch her looking towards him.

 The four eyes face each other.

 There was silence for a moment.

Du Wan felt that there was something wrong with Pei Hao's eyes.

 Ever see gentleness? It's gentle, right? It's not the cold face and disgust that are unprecedented.

Pei Hao came to see the eldest princess and Prince Consort Du, acting like a gentleman who knew the books and was courteous. As gentle as before, Du Wan suddenly realized that being gentle was not meant for her, but she had misunderstood.

 The villain's behavior is only for elders, she is nothing.

 The two families returned to the city together.

Du Qian and Pei Hao rode in front.

Pei Hao's eyes suddenly turned cold while passing by a mountain forest.

Since what happened yesterday was a bit strange, Pei Hao asked his father to investigate it privately for his secret guards. According to the information found by the secret guards, a group of killers ambush here last night, and they did not withdraw until Yin Shi passed. The secret guards did not dare to get too close, only knowing that someone in the ambush was bitten by a poisonous snake.

 Before dawn, these people withdrew to a nearby village.

Du Qian asked: "Prince Pei, is there something different here?"

"Nothing." Pei Hao opened his mouth and hinted, "I sent people to explore the road first, and there was nothing unusual here during the day." When he said the word "during the day", he deliberately emphasized it.

Du Qian's pupils shrank, and he said as if chatting: "If you return to the city at night, this place is a good place to ambush."

"Indeed, there are woods on both sides. Even if the ambush fails, retreat will be easy." Pei Hao's eyes glanced at a fallen tree on the side of the road.

Du Qian followed his gaze and said with deep eyes, "How about we have a cup of tea together when we get back?"

 “It is better to obey orders than to be respectful.”

Pei Hao followed the trend.

I heard that Du Qian wanted to ask him something.

 It's really hard to say since we're outside at this time. This journey was smooth and safe, and we entered the city safely.

 After entering the city, the two families separated, and Pei Hao took his people back home first.

Du Wan thought he was going back to the princess's mansion directly.

 As a result, the carriage headed towards the palace.

About to enter the palace, the eldest princess held her daughter in her arms and whispered in her ear: "When I enter the palace later, I will cry when I see your uncle, the emperor. I want your uncle to know that you are wronged and pitiful."

"Eh? Is this a crying child getting meat to eat?" Du Wan's eyes lit up.

The eldest princess whispered again: "Yes. Now no one even cares about me. Otherwise, why would there always be people who want the lives of my children?"

Du Wan was slightly shocked, "Brother, have you ever been in danger?"

“I've met him before. Your eldest brother used to like reading, but now he likes to practice martial arts.”

“…” Du Wan wanted to continue listening, but the eldest princess fell silent.

After being back for so long, Du Wan felt that the status of the Princess Mansion was transcendent.

Now I know it's not the case. People are in awe on the outside, but they are playing dirty tricks behind their backs. There are some forces that even the emperor may not take seriously. Otherwise, if the emperor won't let them take bribes and bend the law, why would they still do it? Let alone a mere princess's mansion, as long as there are interests involved, whatever happens will happen...

Du Wan rubbed his eyes vigorously.

 After rubbing his eyes for a long time, he raised his head and asked, "Mom, dad, are my eyes red?"

 “It's red.” The eldest princess praised.

 My daughter has not only become well-behaved, but also smarter.

Du Wan added: "I feel very insecure. How about I ask the emperor for some powerful secret guards to protect me?"

“Then you won't have any secrets from now on.” Du Huima reminded.

Du Wan wants to say that she has no secrets and is not afraid of others knowing.

 After a second thought, he shut up. She has a lot of secrets. Especially when Qin Yuyu will return to the palace in the future, people's hearts can change. Will the emperor always favor her?

Du Wan doesn't dare to bet on human nature.

The eldest princess said softly: "You don't have to ask what you want. You are the princess, you have a title and a fief, and according to the ancestral system, you can be equipped with five hundred private guards. It will be fine when your brother reaches the crown and is named the county king. There are five hundred more private guards.”

  “…” Du Wan's head hurts.

 The princess is getting more and more arrogant.

 Three people in a family have legal private guards, which is really jealous.

But, can the princess have 500 personal guards?

 This is really good, you can have it.

By the way, where is her princess mansion? ! Damn it, nothing!

　　Five hundred private guards were not given, and it has been delayed until now? The emperor's uncle has no sincerity.

 Going to cry!

 Must cry!

So, after entering the palace, I went to the Zhengde Hall.

 The emperor had just had breakfast and before summoning the ministers, he heard that the eldest princess and her family came into the palace to ask for an audience.

 The emperor asked: "But something happened?"

"I heard that the princess was pushed into the river last night. Fortunately, she was okay." The chief steward lowered his head and said.

The emperor suddenly became angry and asked: "Why are you reporting this now?"

"Yesterday was the Hungry Ghost Festival, and you ordered that no one should disturb it. So..." The chief steward knelt down tremblingly.

 The emperor calmed down a bit and said, "Tell me what happened last night in detail."

"Yes." What happened yesterday was not a secret. It happened in public. The chief steward received the news late at night, so he told the emperor exactly what everyone saw.

 The emperor said: "Let the imperial sister and her family enter the palace."

 The whole family came neatly, with sad faces.

I'm really unlucky today. I lost the manuscript I coded today!
