The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 387 Giving up is impossible

Pei Hao saw that she was in a better mood and seemed to be in good spirits: "Didn't mother go to Huguo Temple to offer incense today? Did someone give you a hard time?"

 “No.” Mrs. Pei shook her head.

Pei Hao sighed slightly, "Mom, there is no need to cover up for me. There must be many people outside laughing at me."

Mrs. Pei said anxiously: "My son is so good, who dares to laugh at him?"

 “So what if you are excellent?” Pei Hao said bitterly.

Mrs. Pei burst into tears again, "It was your mother who harmed you, it was your mother who harmed you—"

"Mother!"

Pei Hao interrupted Mrs. Pei, "My matter has nothing to do with my mother, it's my own luck..."

It's okay if I don't mention my good fortune, but I burst into tears when I mention Mrs. Pei.

Pei Hao was a filial son. He raised his arms and gently hugged his mother. He said in a very gentle voice: "Mom, don't cry. It's not a big deal. Isn't it just that I can't have children? There are so many eunuchs in the palace, aren't they? Just don’t have children.”

Mrs. Pei cried even more uncontrollably.

 The servants outside heard the crying.

Hu San was guarding like a doorkeeper, and no one dared to peek in to check.

Pei Hao comforted him and said in a nonchalant way, "Did mother meet Master Yuantong today?"

 “Yes.” Mrs. Pei nodded with tears in her eyes.

Pei Hao asked softly: "What did he say?"

“…” Mrs. Pei said guiltily, “Mother heard that Princess Jiaoyang is a lucky star and can protect those around her?”

"Hey, where did mother know this? It's a secret. The princess's house keeps it very tightly hidden, and everyone who knows about it has kept it secret." Pei Hao asked in surprise.

"I, I overheard it too." Mrs. Pei was embarrassed to say that she heard about it from the corner.

“Did mother go to Master Yuantong for confirmation today?”

"yes…"

 “Oh, what did the master say?”

"He said he wouldn't answer anything involving the princess." Mrs. Pei still remembers Yuan Tong's shy look. Later, she begged again and again, and Yuan Tong finally said: If you get the protection of the princess, you will never be able to do anything. worry.

Mrs. Pei was extremely shocked at the time.

 Therefore, I have no doubt that the princess is a lucky star.

When Pei Hao heard Mrs. Pei's story, he secretly cursed that the old monk was really cunning. Being protected by the princess and having a worry-free life is really not an empty talk.

Mrs. Pei cried: "Hao'er, it's your mother who is sorry for you..."

　　It was because she had broken her son's blessing that he became what he is now.

Mrs. Pei was so regretful that her intestines were green.

Pei Hao didn't show any intention of blaming her, "You did it for my own good. I don't blame my mother."

 “No, it’s all my fault.”

 “It’s not your fault.”

 “Blame me, blame me…”

　　　…”

Pei Hao felt that it was enough to stop irritating her anymore, so he changed the topic, "Mom, I don't really believe in fate. Blessings are earned by people, not given by outsiders."

 “Due to struggle?”

Mrs. Pei thought about this and her tears stopped a little.

 When she walked outside, she saw Hu San who was doing his job.

Hu San was a little tired when he saw Mrs. Pei. If she hadn't bothered with the matter of breaking off the engagement, the prince would still have to work hard to plan when he didn't have to recuperate.

However, Hu San was still respectful on the surface, "Madam, walk slowly."

 “Hu San, take good care of the crown prince.”

 “Yes, I will.”

Hu San responded naively. Mrs. Pei walked a few steps, stopped again, turned around and asked, "Hu San, you said your luck is gone, can you still get it back?"

“I don’t understand luck, but just pick it up when you lose it.” “…” Mrs. Pei thought thoughtfully.

　　When he saw that she was finally gone, Hu San secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Hu San went back to the bedroom and explained the situation.

 Looking at this situation, Mrs. Pei will figure it out soon.

Pei Hao waved for him to go out, then picked up a book and started reading. Now he is not thinking about Mrs. Pei at all. He is thinking about how three days have passed. Why didn't the little heartless person come to see him?

 After returning to the capital, she forgot about him?

“Your Majesty, Mr. Qiao is here to visit you. Do you want to see him?” Hu San’s voice came from outside.

Pei Hao came to his senses and said, "Invite him in."

Not long after, Qiao Qingzhu came in wearing a plain gown and behaved appropriately.

The two of them exchanged pleasantries first, and then the servants served tea and snacks to entertain them.

  Wait until the screen recedes to the left or right.

Pei Hao talked about Qiao Qi.

Qiao Qingzhu was slightly startled, stood up and bowed deeply to Pei Hao, "Thank you so much, brother Chengming, for protecting me."

"Okay, don't worry about this. The person is probably not dead yet, and the trouble is still there." Pei Hao thought that Qiao Qi might not be dead, "As long as Qiao Qi doesn't commit suicide, the problem shouldn't be big. Besides, he has ten ties with you. We haven’t seen each other in years, and if something happens, it may not involve you. The only uncertain factor is his master..."

“Who is his master?” Qiao Qingzhu asked.

Pei Hao said complicatedly: "It's Xie Zhang."

  Qiao Qingzhu: "..." Are you playing with him?

Pei Hao added: "I'm telling you these things today because I want to give you a warning. Maybe Qiao Qi will come looking for you in the future to prevent you from being deceived by him."

 “I know, thanks.”

"You're welcome."

Pei Hao has thought about this matter. After Qiao Qi faked his death and needed to hide his identity, he might come to the capital to look for Qiao Qingzhu, and a theater troupe would be a good place to hide. Qiao Qi's current identity is extremely sensitive, and many people in the southwest border have seen his true appearance.

As long as Qiao Qingzhu has contact with him, he will only be dragged into the water by Qiao Qi.

The two of them didn't talk about Qiao Qi anymore, but Qiao Qingzhu asked him and the princess, "Really broke off the engagement? Do you want to give up?"

Pei Hao said very calmly: "It is impossible to give up."

 “Then you’ll have to work hard.”

"It's nothing, maybe it's a good thing after all the hard work." Pei Hao thought of the little girl guarding him day and night when Xinan was injured, and his heart felt hot.

 Qiao Qingzhu knew what her friend was thinking when she saw her sudden smile.

　　After only staying at the Zhenguo Palace for half an hour, Qiao Qingzhu stood up and left.

 The servant began to count the things he had sent.

During this period, Pei Hao was ill and did not see any visitors.

However, there were many condolence gifts sent from various palaces in the capital, but the Princess's Palace was the only one missing.

 Early the next morning.

The eldest princess received the visit note that Mrs. Pei asked the **** to send.

However, the eldest princess just found an excuse to refuse.

Ever since she learned that Mrs. Pei disliked Wanwan, the eldest princess had not had a good look towards her. I just didn't expect to receive a greeting card again the next morning.

 There have been posts from Mrs. Pei for three days in a row.

The eldest princess was not angry, "What do you think she wants to do?"

 “It’s not a big deal to see you if you don’t want to see me.” Consort Du comforted him with a smile.

The princess said, "I don't really want to see her, she's annoying."

 “Then it’s gone and you can raise your baby with peace of mind.”

Du Huima almost blocked out all the troubles outside the house.

Once he had avoided the eldest princess, he ordered the chief steward that from now on Mrs. Pei's posts would not be sent to the main courtyard.
