The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 405: Don't want him to be in the limelight

Chapter 405: Dont want him to be in the limelight

The army that quelled the chaos in the southwest returned victoriously, making the capital lively for several days, along with news of some major and minor events that had happened in the southwest.

The point is that the heroic deeds of the prince were widely spread, but there was one thing that made Pei Hao speechless. Some of the things Du Wan did in Taichu County were inexplicably blamed on Pei Hao.

Of course I am not saying it explicitly, it is specious.

No one doubted that it was false. The reason was that besides the prince, who else could it be?

There is a little gossip, saying that there was a bold kid from a rich family who heard that there was going to be a war in the southwest and went there to gain experience.

Everyone just treated it as an anecdote and laughed it off.

The storytellers in the capital were particularly busy, especially when they talked about the 200,000-strong army going to the southwest and the 200,000-strong army coming back. The number of soldiers who were unlucky and sick on the way back was almost negligible.

The deeds of the Crown Prince are very attractive.

However, those who truly understand the art of war will only smile and shake their heads.

For example, Dingbeihou.

After this incident, the fear of Pei Hao became less severe than before.

When he talked to his staff, he didn't think highly of Pei Hao.

Compassion does not control soldiers, and righteousness does not control wealth.

Pei Hao's attempt to lead troops to quell the chaos this time was risky to say the least, but those who really knew how to lead troops thought it was nonsense. The most taboo thing when leading troops in war is to act on impulse. I thought that this time Pei Hao sneaked into Taichu County alone, but a good general acted as an assassin. Not dead, just injured, that is fate.

The emperor didn't feel anything.

He values the results, not the process.

But many people know that if Pei Hao had not returned to Beijing seriously injured this time, the Zhenguo Palace would not be so peaceful. He would just treat the battlefield as a child's play, and a beating would be indispensable.

These gossips were passed one by one to Yulingyuan of the Princess Mansion.

Du Wan really learned from this, "Brother, I really didn't know things would turn out like this."

Oh, what does it have to do with you? Its his own willfulness.

"But the engagement was canceled at that time -" How can we say that it has nothing to do with her?

Du Qian was angry, "Okay, why bring up the past?"

Pei Haos reputation was good at first, but gradually it changed, and it was a mixed bag of good and bad.

"Some people don't want him to be in the limelight." Du Qian saw this clearly.

Brother, do you know who it is?

I didnt check it, and theres nothing to check. There will be more of this kind of thing in the future. If you really want to check it out when you encounter it, where will you find the energy?

Okay. Du Wan actually wanted to go out and listen to the gossip by herself.

It's just that the cheap brother has been keeping a close eye on her recently, and she doesn't even have a chance to sneak out to see Pei Hao. Sometimes the letters sent secretly by Pei Hao will fall into the hands of the big brother, and then the unlucky one will be Pei Hao. .

It is said that Pei Hao thought she would go to see him and always waited and waited. Later, when he learned that the letter sent to Yulingyuan was intercepted, he learned his lesson and agreed on a secret code with Du Wan.

Du Qian wanted to intercept the letters sent by Pei Hao, but not all of them could be stopped.

There were always one or two letters that were missed and were sent to Yulingyuan.

In the past, Pei Hao's delivery of letters was done openly and openly, but now it has turned from light to dark, becoming more and more hidden. For example, sometimes instead of sending a letter, I send a book or something instead. Even if Du Qian knew what the book might contain, he didn't know what it meant.

Du Wan just thought it was very interesting. Dont let this little day be too beautiful.

But it cannot be denied that she is a well-behaved girl who is becoming more and more homely. As for the princess's wedding dress, which was custom-made, she did not need to embroider it. The eldest princess left it to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, as long as she chose a pattern that she liked.

It's just that she hasn't noticed yet that the three books and six etiquettes have gone faster than expected, especially the situation on the man's side, where there was almost no hesitation. However, wherever the Princess Mansion gets stuck, someone will come over every day to urge it. Even the eldest princess is afraid of this problem, so she will avoid it if possible.

The eldest princess wanted to keep her daughter longer, but her husband kept urging her.

So, the one who became the punching bag was Prince Consort Du.

Du Prince-in-law would touch his waist every time he went to court. He must have been pinched by his wife. Somehow this matter spread again.

Some people joked in public, "There are many people who are anxious to get a wife, but I have never seen anyone as anxious as Prince Pei."

Later, it spread from word to word and reached Pei Haos ears.

Pei Hao didn't take it seriously. He didn't pay attention to a group of irrelevant people. There is still a need to urge, at least to urge the Princess Mansion to set a date for the wedding.

"Ha ha"

"Hahaha"

Hahaha, hahaha

Mu Si'an would walk around Pei Hao every day and laugh three times, like a lunatic.

Pei Hao narrowed his peach blossom eyes and said coolly: "Are you very busy recently?"

"Don't even think about arranging things for me. The emperor has asked me to rest." Mu Si'an looked at Pei Hao warily.

Pei Hao sneered, "coward!"

It doesnt matter if Im timid, my young masters timidity wont bother anyone.

Mu Si'an has been very proud of himself recently, and his official position is about to be promoted again. He thought of something and his expression became serious, "The emperor summoned me today and suddenly asked me if I was married. What do you think the emperor meant by this?"

What else can I do? Just worry about your marriage.

You dont want to recruit me as your consort, right? Mu Sian was not happy. He would be happy to change to another princess, but if that princess was Qin Yuyu, he would be very resistant in his heart. Who let him know who Qin Yuyu was very early, and also witnessed the stories she and Xie Qi had to tell with his own eyes.

Pei Hao glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, it's not your turn to be the prince-in-law."

"That's good."

After Mu Si'an breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly realized, "What did you mean by what you just said? Am I that bad?"

You are not bad, but you are not as good as Du Qian and Xie Zhang.

cannot be refuted.

No matter from any direction, he is inferior to these two people.

Pei Hao did not say that if the prince-in-law really fell on Mu Si'an, then he would be in danger, and the Xie family would not let the fat in their mouths slip away. The Xie family will not take action against the princess, they will only operate on soft persimmons.

A few more days passed.

Du Wan originally made an appointment with Du Qian to go back to the clan together.

Just as he was about to go out, he heard Du Qian say a big gossip.

Du Qian smiled and said: "Sister, Du Yunrong has been granted a marriage by the emperor."

Hearing this, Du Wan was very surprised. There was no plot in the original novel where a vicious female partner was given a hand in marriage.

Thinking of Du Yunrong's changed trajectory, Du Wan's interest suddenly aroused, "Brother, please tell me who she married to?"

"You know Mu Si'an, who has just accomplished great achievements."

Du Wan was glad that she didn't drink water, otherwise she would have sprayed, "How could it be Mu Si'an? How could it be him?! Does the uncle's office have no objection?"

With the status of Empress Du Yunrong's niece and the eldest daughter of the uncle's house, there is no problem at all marrying into a high family. Mu Si'an is good, but he is particularly inconspicuous in front of the noble sons of aristocratic families in the entire capital.

Du Wan doesnt think Du Yunrong will fall in love with Mu Sian.

What else happened?
