The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 33: Is the brain used for decoration?

Pei Hao told himself to hold on steady.

 Don’t be impatient or angry!

 Otherwise, I will fall into her trap again.

This dead girl is simply poisonous and can always easily arouse his temper.

　　When he stood up and came closer, he finally saw how Du Wan wrote... and he knew how wrong she was. She treated the words like a painting, tracing them one by one, and even used the wrong stroke order for some words.

Pei Hao thought of the gossip book from before and was a little confused, "Du Wanwan, don't you know how to find calligraphy stickers when practicing calligraphy?"

 “Huh? Is there still this thing?”

Du Wan’s face was very surprised.

 In this world, are there also calligraphy stickers?

Pei Hao glanced at her with peach blossom eyes, with deep disgust, "Stupid!"

"Snapped!"

Du Wan slapped the pen on the table hard, "Who are you scolding?!"

“…The reaction was so big, it looked even stupider.”

"Pei Hao! What do you mean? Do you want to fight?"

"Am I wrong? Only really stupid people will mind others calling themselves stupid. Smart people know that they are not stupid." When Prince Pei said this, there was no contempt at all, and he was extremely serious.

Du Wan was very happy, "Really? Then you wait."

So, the little girl lifted up her skirt and stood on the chair. She was finally visually taller than the villain Pei. She was condescending and looked at him sideways with a look of contempt, "Pei Hao! You are an idiot, a fool, a fool! Your head is on your shoulders, just for decoration. How stupid! Very stupid, Stupid stupid stupid..."

 The eldest lady is not good at swearing.

 Just a few words back and forth.

Pei Hao was stunned by the scolding.

It can be seen that she was extremely angry, standing on the chair and calling people stupid, but instead of being angry, she actually felt better.

Du Wan scolded her so much that her mouth went dry and her face turned red.

Pei Hao's expression remained unchanged.

It’s just that the little girl has big eyes and moist eyes, and she pouted her little mouth angrily. She is cute and naive.

Pei Hao's eyes flashed slightly, and he spoke slowly: "Wang Fugui is dead, and the person behind the scenes can't be found. I'll... take the heat from the bottom of the cauldron."

 “What did you do?” Du Wan’s attention was successfully diverted.

Pei Hao said unconcernedly: "The so-called sweeping away the fire is, of course, directly going to the palace to report to the Emperor Ming, and let the Emperor make a decision."

"sharp!"

Du Wan gave a thumbs up to Pei Hao.

No matter who is behind the scenes, they are not allowed to touch the iron ore. The Pei family only needs to show loyalty to the emperor. The news about an iron mine was a great achievement.

Facing her praise, Pei Hao raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

 Actually, he was a little angry before he came over. Because he could not know who was behind the mine in time, he missed the best time to investigate and failed to control Wang Fugui in time.

Now that Wang Fugui is dead, this clue has been cut off.

Seeing that it was completely dark outside, Pei Hao wanted to leave.

Going to the window, he saw a group of guards passing by and stepped back.

 Compared with last time, there were more guards protecting her.

Pei Hao turned around and asked strangely: "Princess, how do you, a little girl, gain the attention of the family?"

 “Want to know?” Du Wan’s eyes flashed slightly.

 “Can you say?”

 “It doesn’t hurt to tell you. Because…”

Du Wan turned around and faced him, smiled, pointed her two little fingers at her cheeks, and said, "Look, I look super cute."

Pei Hao: “…”

here we go again!

 Just say it if you don’t want to, and he doesn’t have to know.

Pei Hao was about to say something else when he heard familiar footsteps outside the quiet room.

He quickly ran away and left through the window.

 “Sister?” Du Qian stood outside the door. “Brother, come in, the door is unlocked.”

Du Wan sat in front of the desk without moving when the door was pushed open.

After coming in, Du Qian took a look around the quiet room.

 I was relieved when I saw that my sister was the only one. I just went to see my father.

 Father suddenly asked if his sister and Pei Hao had been in contact frequently recently...

Du Qian couldn't answer for a while. However, my sister has indeed gotten closer to Pei Hao recently.

Du Wan glanced at him with big eyes, "Brother?"

“Sister, is there anyone coming to see you today?”

"No, no one can find me. I've been in the quiet room." Du Wan opened her eyes and told lies.

"It's better if there is no one." Du Qian approached his sister and whispered, "Brother has heard a piece of news."

Du Wan blinked, "What's the news?"

"The little businessman who bought you from the top of the mountain is dead. I don't know what happened. His whole family was arrested and his property was confiscated." Du Qian whispered the news he had just received with his sister. "Brother, I think this is a bit strange. It's unusual. The person who ransacked the house was the Imperial City Secretary."

Du Wan rolled his eyes and said, "This matter must have been approved by the emperor's uncle."

 “My sister guessed well.”

Du Qian nodded in agreement with his sister.

The two chatted for a while, but Du Qian refused to let her practice calligraphy and forced her to rest.

 The next period of time.

　Du Wan is very peaceful and stays at home.

Go to the main courtyard every day to greet the eldest princess and have breakfast together.

 Stay in the quiet room in the morning to draw and write, go to the main courtyard at noon, and continue reading and writing in the afternoon. Then, practice for an hour before going to bed and practice for an hour when you get up early.

 This movement is more difficult to practice than imagined.

 Persevere every day and your physical fitness will improve, but it’s just not obvious.

This morning.

Du Wan has finished reading another book.

 After understanding, she knew that this world was similar to ancient China. The biggest difference is probably a matter of writing, and the myths and stories passed down are different. Here, Pangu did not create the world, and Nuwa did not mend the sky with her body.

 Shuxiang glanced at Du Wan furtively while polishing his ink.

Huayi put away the books on the shelf, "Miss, why don't you ask gossip these days?"

"Oh? What's the gossip?" Du Wan put down her pen and stretched her body.

Huayi whispered: "This city is very tense today."

 “What’s the matter?” Du Wan was surprised.

 “Many officials were killed at the city gate.”

"Huh?" Du Wan became interested now, "What official? Did he commit a major crime?"

"Yes, didn't Prince Pei almost get into trouble last time? The emperor ordered a thorough investigation. This investigation! Something big happened. A general from the Eighteenth Battalion in the suburbs of Beijing died, and a case of embezzlement of military pay was revealed. Major cases... There are more and more people involved in the case, and one batch after another has been arrested."

Du Wan was immediately surprised.

 This is pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud.

Huayi said mysteriously: "I heard that the mastermind this time was named Pei, and he was a young general of the 18th Battalion. He escaped when the ambush failed, and no one has caught him yet. Miss, the Pei family is quite chaotic, and people are also confused. Not easy to get along with.”

Du Wan asked: "...How do you know?"

“It’s all spread outside.” Huayi whispered.

“…” The villain Pei is quite miserable.

　　A person is working hard outside, but his own family members are stabbing him in the back.

Du Wan decided to write a letter to express his comfort.

 After much thought, I still don’t know how to put pen to paper.
