MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 26 What kind of official are you?

Suddenly, Du Wan opened the car curtain and shouted outside: "Brother! The pastries are very delicious, can you eat them?"

The eldest princess: “…”

A horse was riding outside the carriage, and the majestic Du Qian was also stunned for a moment.

younger sister! People are outside, pay attention to your appearance!

When Du Qian turned around in embarrassment, he saw his little head sticking out of the car window, excitedly holding a piece of pastry and handing it to him.

Du Qian snorted softly, slowed down his horse, quickly took the pastry, stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it in a few times. Then, the well-mannered young master appeared again.

 There is nothing I can do, I will love my own girl even with tears in my eyes.

Du Wan smiled, first ate a piece by herself, and then handed a piece to her brother.

So, you divided the whole plate of pastries one piece at a time.

The eldest princess suddenly raised her forehead.

It seems that the ten years of my daughter’s upbringing have been in vain?

But the eldest princess didn’t know it yet, but at this moment, her eyes and eyebrows were all smiling.

 After finishing the pastries, I still need to tell you some things.

The eldest princess said: "Wanwan, your uncle the emperor loves you. You should say hello to him when you meet him. Do you understand?"

“Yeah, I will.” Du Wan nodded.

"The Queen is a kind-hearted person. She comes from a side line of the Du family. She is somewhat related to your father by blood, but the elders have no contact with her. The emperor, who was still the prince at that time, fell in love with her at first sight and married her."

As soon as the eldest princess finished speaking, Du Qian, who was outside the car window, came up and said, "Mom, why didn't you mention that the father of the queen was the one who forced my sister to hand over the jade plaque?"

　　　…”

Wow! What a big melon!

Du Wan blinked with big eyes.

The eldest princess was so angry that she wanted to hit her son, "What nonsense are you talking about? It's her father who is bad, not her."

 “It’s not because of her strength.”

 There is nothing wrong with “…”.

Du Wan looked at it happily, let the gossip come more intensely.

The eldest princess stopped talking about the queen and mentioned the noble concubine Xie Shi.

"A woman can be favored by the emperor for eight years, which shows that she is a capable woman." The eldest princess's attitude towards this noble concubine cannot be said to be good, and it is far inferior to that of the queen.

Xie was born in the Dingbei Marquis Mansion and entered the palace eight years ago through a draft.

 In terms of appearance alone, the queen is even more outstanding. But the imperial concubine has a unique temperament, and is scented with lotus flowers, pure and lustful. The emperor once praised the lotus fragrance on her body in public, saying it was the best fragrance in the world.

Du Wan was curious, "Does this fragrance come with it?"

“It’s said to be natural, but no one knows.” The eldest princess suddenly pursed her lips and chuckled.

 The cheap girl’s words are a bit naughty.

Du Wan smiled suddenly, "I understand, it's pickled like salted fish."

 “Poof!”

The eldest princess laughed.

 Alas, I couldn’t hold it back for a moment and lost my composure.

Even Du Qian, who was listening deliberately outside the car window, laughed so much that he almost fell off his horse.

 The group entered the palace smoothly.

On the way to see the emperor, Du Wan met Pei Hao.

Pei Hao wore an official robe embroidered with gold silk and auspicious clouds and stood solemnly in the meeting hall.

Significant and upright.

Pei Hao at this time was different from what Du Wan had seen before. A person's face may have many sides, which may change with changes in the environment.

 The eldest princess led her children to pay greetings to the emperor.

"Imperial sister, you don't need to be polite, there are Qian'er and Wanwan." The middle-aged man sitting on the dragon chair coldly waved to Du Wan, "Wanwan, come here, let uncle take a look. ... She has become thinner and darker. , I must have suffered a lot. I’ll ask Imperial Physician Song to take his pulse and prescribe some medicine to replenish his body.”

 “Thank you, uncle emperor.”

Du Wan smiled and thanked.       A little reserved and a little nervous.

 This is the legendary emperor!

 The domineering aura I imagined was not there. He looked like a well-educated and well-maintained middle-aged man, but his eyes were a bit sharper.

It’s hard to imagine that this man would be the incompetent emperor in the book.

The emperor probably noticed Du Wan's restraint, so he stopped embarrassing her and asked about Du Qian's studies.

Pei Hao took two steps forward and saluted the eldest princess beside him.

The eldest princess’s eyes were soft and she asked softly: “It’s Cheng Ming. I heard that you were injured. Are you feeling better?”

"Thanks to Your Highness Hongfu, things are getting better. Your Majesty, your Majesty, has granted permission for me to recover from my injuries at home." Pei Hao's cold voice revealed a gentle tone, which was very nice to hear.

　　 attracted Du Wan’s sidelong glances.

Remembering his disgusted tone every time he saw her before...

 I have a little heartache, how can I get rid of it?

 Before Pei Hao came back, because of his betrayal, there was a **** storm in the court.

 The emperor was furious when he learned that Pei Hao had been assassinated and ordered a thorough investigation. After an investigation, a number of generals were imprisoned and some were removed from their official positions. Unexpectedly, another major case of embezzlement of military pay was involved.

On the day Pei Hao returned to Beijing, he went to the palace to resume his duties. During the chat, he mentioned it accidentally again. In that corner of Chiyan County, he actually met people from the Dingbei Hou Mansion.

 The emperor was thoughtful.

 Soon he asked people to secretly investigate Xie Zhang.

No, Pei Hao went to the palace today to present the results of the investigation. There is no problem with the things investigated this time. Xie Zhang traveled to Beijing four months ago. When he passed through Chiyan County, he stayed for some time due to illness. Then he returned to Beijing with his caravan and brought back a A girl named Qin.

Du Wan still didn’t know that Pei Hao had unintentionally dug a big hole for Xie Zhang.

This investigation is nothing now, but it will be interesting when Qin Yuyu's identity is exposed that day... then.

The eldest princess and the emperor chatted about home affairs.

Du Wan quietly moved back, got close to Pei Hao, and asked in a low voice: "Prince Pei, have you been busy recently?"

"Well, it's okay." Pei Hao glanced down at her.

 The little girl is a bit short and hasn’t grown up yet.

The **** eyes were swiping around, definitely not thinking of anything bad.

Sure enough, she asked in a low voice: "Have you asked Xie Qi for food? It's been several days..."

 “Oh, didn’t you say you would send it to me?”

　　"Am I such a stingy person? I'm just asking, not asking you for something." Du Wan spoke eloquently, and you could tell at a glance that she didn't mean what she said.

Pei Hao looked at her expressionlessly.

 You are obviously very stingy, but you have to pretend to be generous!

 He wanted to tell her that it was done, but suddenly he didn’t want to say it anymore...

Du Wan felt a pain in her flesh, and then took a look at Pei Hao's official robe. She stretched out her hand and touched it quickly, "The material is good and the workmanship is good... What kind of official are you? Is it big?"

Pei Hao froze.

 A look of shock on his face that he was unclean!

 Has been touched? Was touched? !

 The emperor turned his head and happened to see this scene, and burst out laughing.

Du Wan was stunned, her face turned red with embarrassment when she saw everyone looking at her.

Where did you touch just now? It seems that it's someone's chest...

The emperor smiled and said: "Wanwan, Chengming is in charge of the Imperial City Department for me. Do you think the official is big?"

"I do not know."

Du Wan's little face showed a child-like innocence and ignorance.

 They all look like little things that I don’t understand!

The emperor couldn't help but laugh again, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You can learn from it in the future."

 “Hmm, listen to the emperor’s uncle.” The BOSS, who is at the top of power, must please.
