The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 378: Pretending, let me make you pretentious

Pei Hao thought of the people who supported Xie Zhang in the court. The influence of the Xie family was deeper than what appeared on the surface. But the little girl's attitude was a little strange.

Pei Hao asked tentatively: "Wanwan, what do you think of the Xie family wanting to rebel?"

"From ancient times to the present, which dynasty has never had a rebellion? The Qin Dynasty also came from rebellion. It is not a rare thing." Du Wan has no complex that the surname must be Qin in this world, "This is the way of the world. Reincarnation, just treat it with a normal mind."

 “Have you never thought of stopping it?”

"There is nothing to stop it. Without the Xie family, it would be another family."

 “...” Pei Hao was silent.

 Speaking of which, he doesn’t think things through as well as the little girl.

 The Qin Kingdom is about to run out of strength, which is an opportunity for some forces. In other words, there is a piece of fat meat in front of you. If Xie’s family doesn’t eat it, others will pick it up.

Pei Hao thought of the Princess Mansion and couldn't help but remind him: "If there is turmoil in the court, it will be difficult for the Princess Mansion to stay alone."

"I know."

Du Wan's calmness was beyond Pei Hao's expectation.

　Today is different from the past, and the inheritance of the jade medal gives her enough confidence.

 In the past, she regretted that it was not a planting space like in the book. It was not until she practiced that she understood that inheritance is far more important than space. Obtaining space is just a matter of using external objects, gaining inheritance and strengthening oneself, so that one can truly control one's own future.

Du Wan was not afraid of Xie Zhang's ambition, "Prince Pei, why do you think the rebels surrendered obediently this time?"

Pei Hao wanted to say something, but closed his mouth again.

Why? He killed several people and was one of the reasons. Qiao Qi didn't really want to revolt, which was another reason. Du Wan played a key role in this.

Thinking of the little girl's ability, Pei Hao finally realized that his worries were unnecessary.

 As the saying goes, one force can defeat ten groups.

 All strategies are useless in the face of absolute strength.

The real thing to worry about is not the princess's mansion, but the Xie family. As long as the little girl is alive, the Xie family will not dare to act rashly, let alone openly start a rebellion.

Pei Hao didn't mention the Xie family again and chatted with Du Wan about other things.

 Du Wan stayed with Pei Hao from then on.

 While he was sleeping, she would meditate beside him.

Until the next morning, the old doctor came over to check Pei Hao's pulse and adjusted the prescription again.

Du Wan personally escorted the old doctor out, and then asked for advice on Pei Hao's condition.

Hu San finally found the opportunity to report to his master, "Your Majesty, Mr. Mu investigated the scene and found the charred corpse of an adult man. The identity could not be determined. We stayed outside all night and did not see anyone suspicious. Mansion. The burned courtyard is being cleaned, and no secret passages or secret rooms have been found yet."

  This means that no flaw has been found or no one has been caught.

Pei Hao thought for a moment and then said, "Send someone to keep an eye on him and tell Si'an. I will let Qiao Qi die on the face of it."

 “Yes, Crown Prince.”

Hu San immediately went to deliver the order.

 Mu Si'an received the news very quickly.

Musian saw his cousin again. At first, he sat quietly aside with a handsome face and said nothing. He just looked at Pei Hao back and forth, as if he wanted to see through him.

The noble prince is sitting on the bed, calm and at ease.

When he stepped in, he saw the prince flipping through a travel journal.

Pei Hao asked Hu San to serve him tea.

Mu Si'an looked at him resentfully, "You haven't noticed anything after sitting here for so long?"

 “What did you find?” Pei Hao asked lightly.

Mu Si’an leaned back on his chair dejectedly, “Can’t you see that I’ve lost a lot of weight?”

"No, I am more energetic." Pei Hao opened his eyes and told lies. Mu Si'an sneered, "This skill is so good. If it weren't for me, I would have almost believed it."

He looked at Pei Hao suspiciously again, "We haven't seen each other for a few days. Have you gained weight?"

“Wanwan said I lost weight, are you blind?”

 “Aren’t you the one who is blind?”

"..." Pei Hao decided not to care about his rudeness, considering how hard he had been working recently, "If you have anything to do, tell me quickly. The princess will come later. She doesn't want me to talk about official business, she is always afraid that I will be tired. It’s on fire.”

 “Really?” Mu Si’an’s teeth ached upon hearing this.

“Well, there’s nothing I can do about her, she just cares about me too much.”

  “…” somehow smells like showing off.

Mu Si'an didn't tolerate him, "Take the smile off your lips, Prince."

Pei Hao looked at him indifferently, as if he said something stupid.

Mu Si'an was jealous and resentful, and did not want to make things easier for him. He deliberately said: "Don't be too happy too early. You and the Princess have already broken off their engagement. Maybe when you return to Beijing, the Princess Mansion will already be looking for a good wife for the Princess." One family.”

Pei Hao: "..." Impossible!

Seeing his expression change, Mu Si'an was finally satisfied.

 It’s pretentious, I’ll let you do it.

If you don't have fun, you won't have fun together. He has been so busy recently that he can hardly sleep. It is typical that there is no harm if there is no comparison. He did not deny that his mentality was a bit broken after seeing the prince.

Pei Hao asked: "Okay, why are you here looking for me this time?"

When it comes to business, Mu Si'an maintained a straight attitude, "It's about Qiao Qi. What do you think?"

"Didn't you find the person? Just report it to the court normally." Pei Hao's operation is fruitless and is a common practice among officials in the court. Even if Qiao Qi shows up again in the future, no one will say that he is covering up. What.

Mu Si'an asked doubtfully: "Do you know Qiao Qi?"

Pei Hao shook his head and said softly: "There is something wrong with Qiao Qi's life experience. He belongs to the Qiao family..."

　Mu Si’an’s eyes widened suddenly.

 The Qiao family used to have good relations with the Zhenguo government?

Pei Hao thought that fortunately it was not Xie Zhang who sent troops, otherwise the opponent would have more room for maneuver. "Qiao Qi's appearance is somewhat similar to Qingzhu, and he is probably his cousin's eldest son. If Qiao Qi is escorted to Beijing, With that appearance, it’s hard to hide his background.”

This issue involves friends, and Pei Hao has to deal with it carefully.

Qiao Qi is still the one who recaptured Pei Chen. If he talks nonsense after being escorted back to Beijing, the Zhenguo government may also be in trouble.

 Mu Si’an understood, “This relationship is too big and needs to be handled with caution.”

 “Well, I have to work hard for you again.”

　　　…”

 About a month has passed.

 The weather is getting warmer and spring flowers are blooming.

The good news of the rebels' recapture in the southwest spread back to the capital.

 The emperor was very pleased and heard that there was a reward.

At the same time, news spread that Pei Hao was injured.

Mu Si'an deliberately reported this matter in order to take credit for Pei Hao. It probably meant that in order to reduce the war and the casualties of the people of the Qin Kingdom, Pei Hao took the risk and sneaked into Taichu County occupied by the rebels, and killed most of the rebel generals. The rebel leader was forced to write a letter of surrender, allowing the imperial troops to recapture five counties without a single blow.

The eloquent article made the emperor's blood boil.

It was just that Pei Hao's injury later changed the story as word spread. Some people said that he was about to die; others said that he was lucky enough to save a small life but would be bedridden for a long time; still others said that he had damaged his roots and was inhumane, etc.
