The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 416 I have a secret to tell you

Pei Hao took Du Wan with him to visit Qiao Qingzhu.

 Qiao Qingzhu was not surprised to see Pei Hao coming, but she was surprised to see Du Wan so early. "I've seen the princess before. It's quite surprising to see you here suddenly."

"No surprise, I'm here for you." Du Wan smiled and sat on the chair next to her.

Pei Hao's face darkened after hearing this.

 Isn’t it coming for him? Why did it become Qingzhu?

 Qiao Qingzhu was really surprised now, "What does the princess mean by this?"

“I want to know who Prince Pei’s friends are.” Du Wan really came here specifically to see the cannon fodder.

Qiao Qingzhu smiled and said, "To be honest, I still rely on the crown prince's blessing."

Pei Hao's mood improved quickly.

Du Wan didn't think much, looked at Qiao Qingzhu and asked, "Can't you imagine who the enemy is?"

 “Unexpected.”

 “Didn’t you think of anything that conflicts with your interests?”

“There are several opera troupes in the capital, and I am quite famous. Occasionally we will have disputes, but not to the extent of a life-and-death feud.”

“Could it be that you hooked up with a noble girl from a certain family, and then recruited her fiancé or family members..."

Du Wan smiled.

 Don't tell her, it's impossible.

 According to what she saw last time, it was really possible.

Qiao Qingzhu's heart skipped a beat, and immediately embarrassment appeared in her eyes, "It's really hard to say this."

“…” Pei Hao’s handsome face darkened again.

Du Wan looked like she was watching a good show, "Have you really hooked up before?"

"I'm good at opera and singing. After living in the capital for so many years, I always have a group of people who follow me. Otherwise, how could I become everyone? It's just that men's jealousy is terrible. It makes me think about who wants to kill me, but I still don't know. Figure it out." Qiao Qingzhu thought about whether she had offended anyone recently, and found that it was almost the same as before, "No one came to warn me."

Pei Hao didn’t quite believe him.

This guy usually hooks up with a lot of noble ladies, although he is always polite.

Qiao Qingzhu said helplessly: "When I open the door to do business, I can't offend the customers and push the money out."

"Come on, are you short of money?" Pei Hao didn't believe it.

 “I’m really short.” Qiao Qingzhu’s answer was surprising.

Du Wan asked strangely, "What did you do with the money?"

"I used to pick up some orphans and set up a charity, because I was afraid they wouldn't have enough money to spend. Later, when they met orphans, they would pick them up again, and gradually there were more people. More than ten years later, I don't know how big it has become. Listen, He said that he started his own business and it was going well..." Qiao Qingzhu was just halfway through her words.

Du Wan stared at him with wide eyes and interrupted him, "What's your mother's surname?"

"Yan." When answering, Qiao Qingzhu was very confused, "Why did the princess suddenly ask about this?"

"hehe."

Du Wan just wants to laugh now, "This Shantang is also called Yanmen? Right?"

Qiao Qingzhu said: "There is this name behind my back. It is usually called Shantang..."

"Don't come here. Prince Pei is your friend, but you keep telling lies." Du Wan's face was not very good at this time, "This organization came to kill me last year. The person behind the scenes of Yan Clan is The second master of Yan Clan."

The world is big, but also small.

It has only been one year since the incident at Yanmen.

Du Wan still remembers it, and Pei Hao also remembers it.

Qiao Qingzhu was shocked when he heard this, "Sorry, I didn't know about this." Du Wan looked at him suspiciously, and then looked at Pei Hao.

Pei Hao looked thoughtful, as if he was considering this matter, "Brother Qiao, tell me what happened back then and how you established the Shantang, which is now the Yanmen."

In the battle of the Qiao family more than ten years ago, all the men in the family who participated in the war were killed, and only Qiao Qingzhu was left among the direct descendants. His grandmother died of illness, and his mother lingered on the bed and died of illness within a few months. Qiao Qingzhu traveled and visited many places. Later, he rescued several orphans and set up a charity.

  Qiao Qingzhu always uses a pseudonym when she goes out, and her surname is her mother's surname of Yan.

He did not manage the affairs of the charity hall very much. He took an old servant with him to travel around. It's just that someone will send a sum of money back every year, which is enough for the children's expenses. Later, he became interested in singing, so he hired a master to learn it. Unexpectedly, he ended up where he is now.

Qiao Qingzhu said depressedly: "I haven't left Beijing for seven or eight years."

Pei Hao thought about it, it was really like this.

Du Wan didn’t know what to say about this.

  In the original work, the head of the Yan Clan is a young man from a down-and-out family who has been neglecting the affairs of the family for many years. Later, he was killed by Xie Zhang and his cousin, and his power was consolidated by the other party. Du Wan didn't know the inside story, and the original work only touched upon it briefly without describing it in detail. If it was true as Qiao Qingzhu said, he died quite unjustly.

Du Wan thought about the people behind the scenes who wanted to kill Qiao Qingzhu. It was most likely Xie Zhang and the second master.

 Leaving a depressed Qiao Qingzhu.

Pei Hao took the little girl and left.

When there was no one around, Du Wan asked: "Do you believe what he said?"

"Xin." Pei Hao had never doubted Qiao Qingzhu, "If he hadn't saved me this time, he wouldn't have survived. Let's not talk about my previous friendship with him, just talk about the life-saving grace this time. There is no need for him to hide it. "

Pei Hao will believe Qiao Qingzhu.

 It’s because he knows what kind of person his friend is, someone who is indifferent to fame and wealth and plays the world.

Pei Hao added: "I knew before that he often did good deeds and helped some poor people or orphans. At that time, he built a charity hall and adopted a group of orphans. I'm afraid he also wanted to do good deeds for his deceased family members."

 “Oh.” Du Wan was doubtful.

 “Wanwan is still doubtful?”

"Um."

 “What makes you suspicious?”

 “I doubt him, do you care?”

"When you doubt him, you doubt my vision. Can I not care?"

  The statement “…” barely makes sense.

Du Wan touched her chin and glanced at him sideways, "My doubts come from not believing that there are people as stupid as Qiao Qingzhu in the world. They don't know that they are the leader of an organization, and they stupidly waste their money every year. Send the money you get. The charity hall has turned into a killer organization, is he still doing good deeds and accumulating virtue?"

Pei Hao: “…”

The little girl's perspective on thinking about the problem is still as tricky as ever.

This makes him feel a little less confident if he wants to say good things for Qiao Qingzhu.

Du Wan stretched out her little finger mysteriously and hooked at Pei Hao, gesturing for him to come closer.

Pei Hao's eyes sparkled, "What's wrong with Wanwan?"

 “I have a secret to tell you...”

Du Wan whispered in Pei Hao's ear for a long time, and revealed that the masterminds behind the scenes might be Xie Zhang and his cousin, "I tell you because I'm afraid that your investigation will go in the wrong direction. As for the power of Yan Clan, Qiao Gather the green bamboos or whatever you want, and don't let Xie Zhang pick the peaches."

Pei Hao nodded thoughtfully, "That makes sense."

“Of course, I always make sense when I say it.”
