The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 349 This person is Prince Pei

Du Wan only felt that a wave of blood was coming, and he was caught off guard.

 It turned out to be Qin Yuyu.

 A little surprised, but not too surprised.

Du Yunrong asked as if watching a show, "Aren't you surprised that the person did this?"

 “What’s so strange?” Du Wan asked.

“You broke off the engagement and played into her hands.”

Du Yunrong said it darkly, but Du Wan still understood it.

 Qin Yuyu's little thoughts were actually seen by others, haha.

Du Wan said calmly: "You think too much. Even if I break off the engagement, it won't be her turn."

"Why not? As long as she goes to the emperor and the queen to cry and beg... maybe after a while, the marriage decree will be issued." Du Yunrong really thought so.

"Wrong! You are wrong." Du Wan smiled gleefully, "Everyone has a chance, but she doesn't."

Du Yunrong saw that she was speaking so firmly and was doubtful.

  The same hour.

  Imperial Palace, Splendid Palace.

Qin Yuyu was wiping her tears, "Mother, I really didn't mean it."

 “The queen believes in you.”

The queen looked at Qin Yuyu with complicated eyes. After all, her daughter did not grow up under her knees...she had raised her crookedly and started playing tricks with her.

After being quiet for a long time, the Queen comforted her: "You don't have to worry too much, no one will blame you. It is a fact that the two families have broken off their relationship, and it will spread sooner or later. You just told it in advance..."

“Is this true? Father, don’t you blame me?” Qin Yuyu asked with tears in his eyes.

 “No, I won’t be surprised.”

 The queen had a headache.

Having been scheming in the palace for more than ten years, how could she not understand her daughter's thoughts?

However, the queen hoped that she could wake up, "Daughter, there are thousands of outstanding men in the world, you can choose from them, but there is one exception."

 Qin Yuyu's almond-shaped eyes met the queen's gaze, and he suddenly felt uneasy.

The queen said ruthlessly: "This person is Prince Pei."

“Why?” Qin Yuyu stood up quickly, very excited.

The queen felt that the long-term pain was not as good as the short-term pain, "because he is Wanwan's fiancé."

"But he is not now!" Qin Yuyu was excited and could no longer hide her true thoughts, "Mother, I like him, very much. He used to have an engagement with his cousin, and I had to give in. Now he doesn't even have an engagement. Why can't it be me? Am I still worse than my cousin?"

 “Not bad, you’re good.”

 “Then why not?” Qin Yuyu was so anxious that he almost went crazy.

"Your father will not agree." The queen knew that she would not agree either, so she simply threw the blame at the emperor.

Qin Yuyu said anxiously, "I'm going to ask my father."

"Stop!" the queen quickly stopped her, "Are you crazy?"

 “My...mother? I’m sad...”

Qin Yuyu then threw herself into the queen's arms and cried, "Why? They are all girls. Why can she do it and I can't..."

The queen was originally angry, but she couldn't bear to see her crying like this.

However, she couldn't bear it anymore, but she still hardened her heart and refused to agree.

 The princess married her cousin’s ex-fiancé? This is nothing.

 If they are really married, how will the outside world guess about them? How should I explain it to the Princess Mansion? The emperor and the eldest princess have always been close, and there is no way they would agree to this ridiculous marriage and thereby lose face to the princess's house.

 So, Qin Yuyu was destined to have no fate with Pei Hao.

 The affairs of the Splendid Palace could not be hidden from the emperor's eyes. Did he learn that his biological daughter actually covets Wanwan's fiancé?



 The emperor's eyes darkened. Had Wanwan known about it earlier and refused to enter the palace?

 “Here comes!” the emperor called out.

 A palace servant stood up and knelt down in front of the emperor.

The emperor ordered, "I have ordered that the princess be confined to the Jinxiu Palace for half a year, and then four female civil servants will be transferred there."

 “As ordered.” The palace man quickly retreated.

Qin Yuyu didn’t know that in addition to failing in his calculations, he was about to face six months of dire straits.

 The queen almost fainted when she found out.

If this bitch, Concubine Xie, knew about this, she would definitely make fun of her for not being able to teach her daughter well...

 That afternoon.

Du Wan sent Du Yunrong away.

 After having lunch with Du Qian, he rode on his beloved pony and went to visit Xiaozhuangzi. Du Qian originally wanted to follow, but was told to leave by the clan leader.

Du Wan can only go there alone.

 Zhuang Cong was very efficient in doing things and hired many people to work on him.

 The things in the plan have already taken shape.

 Chicken farms, pig pens, cattle and sheep and other housing pens have been built.

There are rows of houses built on a piece of rubble wasteland, with hundreds of them, for temporary residence of servants. Each house is equipped with bunk beds, which is similar to a student dormitory. It saves money. A lot of space. The room that originally accommodated ten people could easily accommodate twenty people.

Not far from the stream, greenhouses were built one after another.

Zhuang Cong spends time here all day long now.

Seeing the princess coming, he quickly stepped forward to wait.

“Very good, well done.” Du Wan was very satisfied with the progress. “Are there people working in the fields today? Are they plowing the ground?”

“Yes, the weather has warmed up, and the work in the fields has begun.” Zhuang Cong reported truthfully.

 “I found out that I’ve invited someone again.”

"The princess could tell at a glance? My subordinates had previously hired people from nearby villages, but later they went to the city to recruit people when they were short of manpower." Zhuang Cong explained the matter in detail.

 Don’t think that the capital is all a prosperous place.

 In the corners ignored by the powerful, there is also a group of poor people who live a difficult life, and they are all cheap labor. These people can earn twenty cash from a day's work, and then have a meal at noon, which is actually a few big steamed buns. Even so, the price given by Zhuang Cong was considered high, and many people rushed to come and work.

 In the past few days, some people have been coming.

 As long as there was a handful of strength, Zhuang Cong kept him.

Du Wan looked at the people who came to work. None of them were fat. Their clothes were all patched and patched.

Zhuang Cong added: "I heard that the city wall is going to be repaired, and the engineering team will start recruiting people today. In the future, it may not be so easy for us to recruit people here."

“Those who build the city wall will not have an easier time than those who work in the fields.”

“But the salary will be much higher, at least forty or fifty cents a day. I heard that if you work hard, you can earn over a hundred cents.”

“…” Du Wan couldn’t answer this.

 She has experienced the days when she had only one penny and wished she could spend it as two penny.

However, the engineering team is considered to be conscientious and the wages they pay are quite high.

 While living in the village during this period, Du Wan accidentally learned that Brother Xianyang wanted to build the city wall. It was just a showmanship on the surface. People from the clan took over the construction.

No wonder Big Brother Cheap said there is no shortage of money.

Du Wan also vaguely guessed a problem. The elders in the clan seemed to have guessed that troubled times were coming and were making secret preparations.
