The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

 Chapter 382 The strange prince

Pei Hao, who thought he had survived the disaster, did not see Du Wan that night.

Until early the next morning, when everyone got up, Pei Haofang saw the little girl circling around her elder brother, constantly chirping and asking about the situation at home.

Du Wan asked again: "Brother, where did you go last night? I tried to find you but couldn't find you."

 “Go to the magistrate of this place…”

Du Qian learned that there was a disaster, and after discussing with Pei Hao, he left the inn and went to the county magistrate without stopping to discuss disaster relief. When speaking, he avoided the important and neglected the trivial, and did not elaborate on the rules of officialdom.

Du Wanqi asked: "Did the county magistrate respond?"

 “Does he dare to refuse?” Du Qian asked.

 Things are prioritized. When a disaster occurs, nearby counties are obliged to rescue the victims.

Du Qian added: "I will spend a sum of money and ask the county magistrate to organize manpower to resettle the victims."

 “Brother, aren’t you afraid that they will embezzle your money in disguise?” Du Wan felt a headache when she thought of the widespread corruption in Da Qin.

Du Qian's face became solemn and he said, "Anyone who dares to commit corruption will be beheaded."

 In order to avoid corruption, he left some people to keep an eye on him. The people accompanying him this time were all Du Qian's personal guards. They had no direct interest in many officials of the magistrate and only needed to carry out his orders. Some people dare to commit corruption, and they really dare to kill people. After all, if anything happens, Du Qian will bear the responsibility.

 “This is my eldest brother.” Du Wan gave a thumbs up to Du Qian.

 Having a little bit of pride, my cheap brother is really good and has a good character.

Pei Hao felt sour and sat at the dining table, not knowing what to eat.

After waiting for a long time, Du Wan finally spotted Pei Hao and asked in surprise: "Why did you leave the room?"

"Come out and have breakfast with everyone. What about you, have you eaten?" Pei Hao showed a gentle smile.

Du Wan was surprised, "Why didn't you bring the food to the house? Your..."

"It's no big problem. I'll be leaving soon after eating." Pei Hao quickly interrupted her, but he glanced at Du Qian quickly when he said this.

 “Oh, then you keep eating.”

Du Wan just thought that he didn't want to mention his injury.

She didn't understand Pei Hao's subtle hints at all.

Du Qian had already been a little angry when he saw Pei Hao's gentlemanly and coy look. He couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw this look.

Should! Deserve it!

Du Qian sat down at the dining table, glanced at Pei Hao provocatively, then grabbed a meat bun and took a bite, eating it deliciously.

Seeing this, Du Wan sat down and picked up the meat buns on the table to eat as usual.

 For breakfast on the table, in addition to a large plate of meat buns, there is also a small pot of rice porridge, a plate each of pickles and fried peanuts. These things can be eaten at any time in modern times, but in Da Qin, they were their breakfast.

 “Is Wanwan used to eating?” Du Qian asked with concern.

Du Wan smiled and said, "I'm not that particular about going out. But brother, you seem to be very adaptable."

"I often traveled out in the early years, but I haven't gone out in the past two years. How can I not adapt?" Du Qian mentioned his past events and picked some interesting things to tell his sister. "On the other hand, Prince Pei, I think he will do something." Uncomfortable. Look at him, he looks like a child of a well-established family, he has to take so long to eat a meat bun, and he still has less than half of it left in his hand."

Pei Hao felt like he was being understood.

 Does it mean that he is spoiled?

Only then did Du Wan notice the buns in Pei Hao's hands and the bowl of porridge in front of him that had barely been touched. "Prince Pei, do you have a loss of appetite?"

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　∣　

Du Qian couldn't help laughing for a moment, "Haha..."

Pei Hao's face darkened for a moment, and then he glanced at Du Wan with resentment, "Are we still a couple?" His words were lightly spoken, like a thunder.

Du Wan looked at Du Qian with a guilty conscience, just like a junior high school student caught in love by his parents. It was all Pei Hao's fault. She turned back and glared at Pei Hao with angry eyes.

Du Qian was also shocked by these words, and his smile disappeared instantly, "Pei Chengming, what do you mean?"

 “...” Pei Hao secretly regretted it.

 Why did you suddenly say it out of anger? He can definitely use this to make the little girl feel sorry for him.

Du Qian's eyes were sharp, like a knife, "What do you mean a couple?"

 “Brother—” Pei Hao was about to explain.

Du Qian asked sharply again: "Who is your eldest brother?! My family can't reach the Zhenguo Palace, and my sister will not pester you shamelessly."

Pei Hao: “…”

 This is the end...

Pei Hao looked straight at Du Wan, "Wanwan, eldest brother is not an outsider, why don't you tell them?"

 “Tell what?”

Du Wan glared at him angrily.

If he hadn't been talking nonsense, would it have been like this?

Pei Hao put down the bun in his hand and said in a dignified manner: "I want to tell my eldest brother that you didn't pester me, but I shamelessly pestered you."

　Du Qian: “…”

 Du Wan: “…”

 Why is it different from what she thought? But does this count as defending her?

Du Qian saw his sister's expression and realized that he still underestimated Pei Hao. He started to turn a blind eye to Pei Hao, picked up the empty bowl in front of Du Wan, filled him with porridge himself, and placed it in front of her, "Sister, eat quickly so that you can leave early. Mother has nagged you many times. I always ask you if you have left seclusion."

As soon as Du Wan heard this, he immediately responded and started eating attentively.

 Don't think that she is really stupid, it's because the atmosphere is not right. She would not try to flatter her eldest brother for Pei Hao's sake, nor would she step on Pei Hao for his eldest brother's sake.

 Smart people have to pretend to be stupid.

As long as the fire doesn't burn her head, she won't take sides.

Pei Hao could see that the little girl's shrewdness was coming back.

Du Qian now disliked everything about Pei Hao, and deliberately made trouble and said: "Prince Pei, there is a disaster outside. It is not okay to waste food."

"It won't be wasted. Isn't it graceful?" Pei Hao couldn't help but say something that touched his heart.

Had Du Qian not been well-educated, he would have been so angry that he would have flipped the table.

What's the meaning? Will Wanwan eat the leftovers for him?

Pei Hao suddenly said "Oops", but quickly picked it up again and started eating breakfast gracefully.

Just now, his foot was stepped on by the little girl under the table. It wasn't very serious, but it just served as a warning. But the little girl underestimated her strength. Pei Hao was thinking that the top of her feet must be red and swollen, otherwise it wouldn't be so painful.

Du Wan gave him another warning look.

Just now she was so angry that she almost kicked him, but then she realized that he still had broken bones, so she changed her kicking to stepping on him. I don’t know what kind of stimulation he received today, and he became weird. Was he punished by his elder brother last night?

 That shouldn’t be the case. He is injured, and my eldest brother will definitely not do anything to him. Because of this, she felt comfortable leaving them alone last night and even resisted her curiosity to eavesdrop.
