The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 313 The little girl warns Xie Zhang

Du Wan had no doubts about Su Che and Xie Zhang.

There was also a boy beside Su Che. He was given to Su Che by Prince Consort Du. He ran errands for him on a daily basis. Now the boy was as miserable as him.

Du Wan saw that she was being bullied.

 In addition, Xie Zhang probably happened upon him and came to help.

Just as Du Wan guessed, when Su Che saw Du Wan, he immediately came forward with respect and salute, and the same was true for the boy.

Su Che lowered his head and said nothing.

It was such a cold day that most of his robe was wet, and his lips turned purple from the cold.

Du Wan asked strangely: "My father asked you to go out to do business, so you should have a carriage. You have left the Yamen, where is the carriage?"

 “The car broke down.” Su Che said respectfully.

Du Wan looked at the boy, who was still shivering from the cold, "What happened?"

"Go back to the princess, the carriage in the palace is broken down, and it won't be repaired for a while..." The boy explained the matter in a few words. It was Su Che who wanted to go back to the princess's mansion after finishing his work, but found that the carriage was broken, so he could only walk back. Unexpectedly, not long after leaving, some gangsters suddenly came and punched and kicked them.

 One person even insulted Su Che and threw a bucket of water on Su Che.

The boy went to help Su Che block the water, but he only blocked part of it.

Su Che's clothes were still mostly wet.

Du Wan did not ask any more questions and called Zhuang Cong, "There is a carriage outside the palace gate. You can use it to take Su Che and the two back home."

 “Yes, Princess.” Zhuang Cong accepted the order.

Du Wan looked at Su Che and the two of them again, "There is a small charcoal stove, blankets, and hot tea in the carriage for you to use."

"Thank you, Princess." Su Che and the boy quickly thanked Du Wan.

 Xie Zhang was keeping an eye on Du Wan.

 It can be seen from this that she attaches great importance to Su Che.

 Attach more importance than what he investigated? Because ordinary servants are not qualified to take the master's carriage back home.

The others walked away, leaving Du Wan and Xie Zhang alone.

Du Wan raised her eyes and looked at Xie Zhang.

Xie Zhang asked her calmly, "Princess, how are you doing recently?"

 “Did you arrange those gangsters?”

Du Wan's abrupt words made Xie Zhang slightly startled.

Xie Zhang then smiled bitterly and said, "Why does the princess think so badly of Xie?"

“Isn’t this your usual method? There are not so many coincidences in the world, and those that are are all human arrangements.”

Du Wan’s last words have not yet finished.

Xie Zhang felt his eyes flash, and his throat was pinched by a small white hand.

Xie Zhang was less interested in practicing martial arts than studying. He was forced to practice martial arts by his father since he was a child. It was only later that he left Beijing to study. The studies were heavy and there were many things to do, so he gradually let go. Even if he hasn't practiced martial arts for many years, his physical fitness is not bad. He is a normal man and can beat up gangsters without any problem.

Ordinary women can't help him.

Today, I was easily grabbed by the throat by a little girl.

 This is a fragile and fatal place in the human body...

Xie Zhang suddenly felt suffocated. He was holding his breath and felt that if she applied even a little more force, he would really die. The little girl who used to look at him with bright eyes now only had a calm murderous intent in her eyes.

Du Wan said indifferently, "You saved me from Su Yu last time, but you sent me injured to Chiyan County. This life-saving kindness can only be compromised."

Hearing this, Xie Zhang’s pupils shrank.

 How did she find out? !

 Xie Zhang's emotions fluctuated like turbulent waves. What shocked him even more, Du Wan went on to say: "Concubine Xie plotted against my eldest brother, and this matter is on your head. Now that the Japanese princess has let you go, this grudge is over."

Du Wan didn’t talk about the mine because she had already gone back to take revenge.

Some grievances are difficult to sort out if we take them seriously.

 Regardless of Xie Zhang’s ulterior motives, he actually saved the original owner twice. One time, it was a human trafficker during the Lantern Festival. It was indeed not Xie Zhang who secretly planned it. The person who planned it was Huang Lian. The other time was to save the original owner from Su Yu, even though Xie Zhang later did not send the original owner back to the capital, but instead sent him to Chiyan County.

  In the original work, the original owner died unexpectedly, but now she is... alive.

Du Wan turned a blind eye to Xie Zhang's ambition.

 The reason is that she didn't pay much attention to the rise and fall of the Qin Kingdom. But there was someone she wanted to protect, and Xie Zhang crossed the line...

 She saw that Xie Zhang's face changed color from suppressing it.

Du Wan relaxed a little.

“Princess, Princess—” Xie Zhang shouted in a hoarse voice.

Du Wan let go of his hand. Xie Zhang could breathe for a moment, then bent over and coughed violently.

 As for Su Che, it was all based on her personal guess that it was Xie Zhang who had done something. Du Wan knew that her idea was biased and unreasonable, and even her views were a bit misleading.

However, so what?

Du Wan didn’t really want to kill him, but just wanted to give him a warning.

Du Wan said coldly: "Xie Zhang, if I want to kill you, it's as easy as squeezing an ant to death... Don't be too clever to plot against the princess's mansion."

 “Ahem, cough…”

 Xie Zhang coughed hard again.

Before he could catch his breath, Du Wan turned around coldly and left.

Xie Zhang raised his head and looked at Du Wan's leaving figure, his eyes dim and unclear.

Now that he is in the hands of the princess, he is actually powerless to resist?

　　Martial arts does not happen overnight. Has she been hiding it before, or is the Du family as unfathomable as recorded in the family classics? Can you turn an ordinary little girl into a martial arts master in just half a year?

 That’s right, Xie Zhang received a bunch of secret letters when he came back.

 One of them is the assessment of Du Wan's martial arts: extremely dangerous.

 At that time, Xie Zhang thought that the people below him had neglected their duties, and wanted to wait for some time before dealing with it.

Now it seems that he was careless...

Du Wan returned to the palace to find the eldest princess.

 Unknown to her, she was confronted by Xie Zhang when she was caught by Mu Si'an who was out for a walk.

Mu Si'an quickly returned to the Imperial City Division and told Pei Hao about the matter vividly.

After hearing this, Pei Hao thought thoughtfully and asked, "What did Xie Zhang do to anger the princess?"

“Could it be to protect Su Che?” Mu Si’an speculated.

Pei Hao's heart pounded when he heard this, and he said with a dark face, "Is it possible?"

"The situation at that time was like this. The princess specifically asked Zhuang Cong to send Su Che back home, or take the princess's carriage back. I vaguely heard the princess say that Su Che can use whatever is in the carriage... just I’m afraid he’ll get cold.”

The more Mu Si'an continued talking, the uglier Pei Hao's handsome face became.

　　　No man will feel happy when he hears that his sweetheart cares about other men.

 Pei Hao could only bear this critical blow.

Pei Hao looked threatening, "Aren't you in trouble? Get out of here."

"Get out of here, I've seen you get angry too many times, I won't leave you alone."

Mu Si'an left a sentence and ran away quickly, successfully avoiding the paperweight suddenly thrown by Pei Hao.
