The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 380 The crown prince needs someone to carry him

 Five counties have experienced rebellions and are in dire need of talent for governance.

With Pei Hao leaving, Mu Si'an could only find someone to manage him.

As a result, no suitable one was found, and Mu Si'an had to take charge personally. He also handled the matter in an orderly manner, and even organized people to start spring plowing, etc. There was no such thing as insufficient numbers. A bunch of rebels and refugees were just enough to farm and open up wasteland. Food and accommodation will be provided by the government for the time being.

 There is no limit to how much you can eat without starving to death. As for the issue of housing, it is easier. There are many empty villages and houses, and the overcrowding has been settled.

Mu Si'an just waited for the imperial court to send officials to take over, and then he could retire with success.

 As a result, the imperial edict came.

Mu Si’an still failed to return to Beijing immediately.

The person who can return to the capital is Pei Hao, who was seriously injured. The emperor gave him permission to return to the capital to recuperate. Mu Si'an stayed behind to stabilize the situation in the southwest border, and could not return to Beijing until officials sent by the capital came to complete the handover.

Mu Si’an just wants to scold her.

The emperor actually didn’t ask the official who took over to come with the imperial edict?

Du Wan learned about the imperial edict and immediately arranged a carriage back to Beijing.

At the same time, Du Wan also persuaded the old doctor to take his apprentice back to Beijing with him. The old doctor originally did not want to go back, but Du Wan promised that the Princess Mansion would give him protection. After more than a month, Du Wan, who was about to go back, met the eldest and second babies.

The two brothers burst into tears when they saw Du Wan.

Du Wan would have almost forgotten it if he hadn't seen them both, "Where's Alang?"

Dawa said: "He will learn martial arts from Uncle Hu San in the future. He said he wants to be a general when he grows up."

“Oh, that’s great. What do you want to do?” Du Wan was delighted to hear this.

 The eldest child glanced at the second child and said, "We want to follow the young master."

"I'm going back to the capital, do you want to follow me?" Du Wan did not force them to do anything, "How about working as a medicine boy with the old doctor first and learning something?"

 The two children’s eyes lit up and they nodded repeatedly.

Du Wan did not act arbitrarily and went to the old doctor in person.

The old doctor agreed after meeting the two brothers, who were both sensible children.

Du Wan gave the banknotes brought by the Dawa brothers, which were huge sums of money collected from Tu Zuo, directly to Pei Hao.

Pei Hao handed it to Mu Si'an and asked him to make arrangements.

　Mu Si'an was in need of money now for his work, so he happily said, "The princess is still open-minded."

 “Haha.” It’s not that Du Wan doesn’t like money, it’s just that the money is hot to the touch.

 Early the next morning.

 The motorcade outside the courtyard gate is well prepared.

Pei Hao, who was sitting on the bed, had not yet recovered from the fracture in his foot. Today he wanted to get out of bed and walk, but was bumped into by Du Wan.

Now Du Wan was so angry that she was teaching him a lesson, "I told you not to get better, right? How do you fix a second fracture?"

 “It’s been more than a month…”

 He sat with an innocent look on his face, not daring to move any further.

Du Wan said angrily, "Do you know that it will take a hundred days to break your muscles and bones?"

“I know, you nag every day.” Pei Hao smiled like a spring flower.

 Mu Si'an and Hu San couldn't bear to look at them at the door.



Du Wan wants Hu San to come in and carry Pei Hao to the carriage.

Pei Hao was not very happy, "He is a stinky grown man..."

"Then let Mu Si'an carry you?" Du Wan wanted to ask, "Aren't you a grown man?" They are all grown men, who will dislike the other. But then I thought about this guy's mysophobia, so I didn't say anything more, "Don't always pick on this picky and that picky one. If you have any demands, just ask them directly. If you continue to mess around like this, when can we return to the capital?"

Pei Hao thought that his hint was obvious.

　　But the little girl was so frank that she didn’t understand it at all. Mu Si'an, who was watching the show from the side, burst into laughter and joked: "Princess, we men all stink, but you are fragrant."

 “What?” Du Wan understood now.

 Shall she be asked to carry someone on her back?

Du Wan really doesn’t have this awareness in his head.

 She turned to look at Pei Hao. When he looked at her with an innocent expression, she didn't understand. She really wanted her to carry him. Well, an ordinary little girl wouldn't be able to carry him, but she is extraordinary and has a very high strength value.

Du Wan had a helpless face and bent down with her back to him, "Okay, come up quickly."

Pei Hao smiled and lay on her back, then stretched out his arms to wrap around her neck, naturally and intimately.

Du Wan muttered, "If you want me to memorize it, just say so. Don't you know it's a waste of your brain to guess?"

“…” Pei Hao only felt that his little girl was still as cute as ever.

Du Wan originally thought that he would be very heavy for a man, but when he carried it, he realized that it was lighter than expected. "You eat five or six times a day, and you have only eaten normally in the past few days, but you haven't eaten less. Why is it so light?"

 “Sian also said that I am fat.” Pei Hao put his chin on her shoulder.

 “His eyes don’t work very well.”

“It doesn’t work. I said I lost weight, but he insisted on saying I gained weight.”

　　　…”

Mu Si’an who was following behind just wanted to roll his eyes.

He knew that the prince was seriously injured this time and would need careful treatment for a long time, but he would definitely not be so weak that he needed someone to carry him. I am afraid that only the princess here would believe that he is really too weak to take care of himself.

 Mu Si’an didn’t know.

　　When Du Wan saw Pei Hao in the cellar, the shadow would be so big that she always subconsciously felt that he was very fragile...

Du Wan placed Pei Hao in the carriage.

 The carriage is slightly larger than ordinary ones, and the seats are covered with animal skins, making it very comfortable to sit on. There are some pastries and snacks placed in the grid, and some books are also prepared to relieve boredom on the road.

To take care of Pei Hao, Du Wan would ride with him. After sending him into the carriage, she didn't go out. Anyway, she didn't have anything to pack, and she only had that much baggage.

Pei Hao opened the car curtain and said goodbye to Mu Si'an.

Mu Si'an said to Du Wan respectfully: "Princess, the road may be uneasy. I leave the prince's safety to you."

“Okay, don’t worry, I will ensure that the person is returned to the capital safely.” Du Wan waved goodbye to Mu Si’an.

The people accompanying him back to Beijing included, in addition to Hu San and other Pei family guards, a cavalry force of 1,000 people. It is said that it was specially arranged by Mu Si'an. Du Wan originally didn't want to take them with him. The more people there were, the slower the journey would be.

The smaller the number of people, the faster the journey will be.

When Du Wan objected, Mu Si'an said that the cavalry was being arranged and would not slow down the journey.

Pei Hao did not refuse at the time, and Du Wan thought about it and did not insist on objecting.

“Would you like melon seeds?” Pei Hao handed a small bag of sunflower seeds into her hand.

Du Wan lowered his head and took it politely, "Oh, I haven't eaten melon seeds for a long time, and I miss the taste very much."

 “This can relieve boredom.”

"Uh-huh."

Du Wan was chewing on melon seeds out of boredom.

Pei Hao was quietly peeling melon seeds next to her, and then fed the kernels to her mouth.
