MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince-Chapter 111 Are you letting the tiger go back to the mountain?
Chapter 111 You are letting the tiger go back to the mountain
Du Wan asked while raising her little hand to scratch her ears.
Just now, Villain Pei was too close, and the hot breath he breathed made her ears itch. However, she had leaned forward to talk to him like this before, so she couldn't say anything.
Pei Hao caught her little moves in his eyes.
My heart is beating a little fast...
He didn't answer for a long time. Du Wan was dissatisfied and bumped him with her elbow, "Tell me quickly, why can't you tell my elder brother and the others?"
"There is no evidence. If you tell me, it will be very difficult for them. If you rush into the investigation, it will be easy to alert the snake. So the less people know about this matter, the better."
Pei Hao didn't speak to her ear anymore.
It doesn’t matter if someone listens to a sentence that has no beginning or end.
Du Wan thought about it carefully, with a look of realization on her face, "Okay. I know, I won't say anything."
At that time, she was tricked by Pei Hao before she spoke out...
In fact, Du Wan never thought about telling his family about Xie Zhang now. From the position of the eldest princess and Du Qian, when they learned that someone wanted to rebel, they would not ignore it. It is inevitable that he will confront Xie Zhang.
Privately, Du Wan doesn't want her family to be the leader.
Chaos in the Qin Kingdom in the future is unavoidable. Because this chaos was initially caused by natural disasters, and then various man-made disasters broke out. In front of nature, human beings are too insignificant. Not to mention the Great Qin Kingdom, even in modern times, various natural and man-made disasters cannot be avoided.
Du Wan was thinking about what to do next.
The martial arts value must be improved.
In addition, the person behind the scenes must still be keeping an eye on her. Can they catch her next time?
Du Wan suddenly asked: "Prince Pei, can the Yan family take the initiative to reveal the person behind the scenes?"
"You're thinking…"
“Yeah, talk to them.”
"This is not easy. Unless you can give them something they can't refuse."
"What's this? Aren't there a group of people locked up in the Yamen Prison? Just use a few as bargaining chips." Du Wan thought of some of the prisoners caught this time, "I heard that there are a few who look like they have different identities. low."
Pei Hao felt that she was a little whimsical, "This is against the law, do you think it is feasible?"
“I think it’s feasible.”
“That must be approved by the emperor.”
"I will find a way to convince the emperor's uncle then." Du Wan frowned, as if he was struggling with how to convince the emperor's uncle.
A strange look flashed in Pei Hao's eyes, "What if I can't be convinced?"
“Let’s do it in secret, but there will be endless troubles.” At this time, Du Wan remembered what the eldest princess and Du Qian had said. The princess’s mansion had a special status, and there would be many people watching.
Any slight disturbance will be known to others...
The carriage stopped.
He actually came back to the Princess Mansion.
Pei Hao was sullen and silent for a moment.
He thought he could be alone with her for a longer time, but he didn't expect that he just went out for a walk and didn't even get off the carriage. This is very different from what he expected. Don't all little girls like to go shopping and be lively?
She, why didn’t you mention it?
Du Wan of course likes shopping and being lively.
However, she did not take the princess's personal guards with her when she went out. She was afraid that the eldest princess would be worried if it took a long time.
After sending Du Wan back home, Pei Hao went to the Imperial City Si Yamen again.
As soon as he walked into the Yamen, a young **** hurried over and said, "Master Pei, you are finally back. The Emperor wants to see you."
Pei Hao did not stop and followed the young **** directly to see the emperor. The emperor saw Pei Hao coming in in a hurry.
“See the Emperor.” Pei Hao saluted.
The emperor closed the memorial and said, "I heard that you skipped work. Where have you been?"
Pei Hao paused in his salute, and after being quiet for a while, he said truthfully: "I accompanied the princess to the south city gate. I asked the emperor to punish me if I left my post without permission while I was on duty."
The emperor chuckled, "I will not pursue this matter, and I will not do it next time."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Pei Hao seemed to relax a lot after hearing this.
The emperor said: "I called you here this time to ask about the Yanmen case. What do you think?"
“Wei Chen was able to learn about Yan Clan’s power in the capital by accident. He knows nothing about the situation outside the capital.”
Pei Hao told the truth about Zhongyuanjie when he noticed that someone wanted to ambush the princess, and then sent people to follow those people to find out some strongholds. Of course, he concealed the power he used in private, "Your Majesty, someone is paying to kill Princess, do you want to continue investigating this matter?"
The emperor asked: "Check. But, can you find the person who paid for the murder?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive Wei Chen for his incompetence." Pei Hao stood firm and said seriously, "According to the princess, the Princess Mansion has been investigating the matter earlier than Wei Chen, and has not been able to find the murderer so far. . If it were Wei Chen who went to investigate, I’m afraid he wouldn’t gain anything.”
Pei Hao lowered his eyelids to cover up his slightly gleaming expression, "Wei Chen has an immature idea. I wonder if the Emperor is willing to listen to it?"
“Let’s talk and listen.” The emperor took this case very seriously.
Pei Hao said in a clear voice: "In order to investigate the real culprit more quickly, Wei Chen wants to contact the people in charge of the Yan Clan and ask them to give them clues about the culprit behind the scenes in exchange for the three prisoners in the prison."
The emperor's face was serious and he was silent for a long time. "Are you letting the tiger go back to the mountain?"
“Your Majesty, Yanmen is just an organization that takes money to do things, and it cannot be considered a tiger.”
"That's not what you told me last time. You said that as this power continues to expand, it will be a big hidden danger. You also said that the Yan Clan now dares to attack the princess, and it might be me next time." The Emperor Yun said He looked at Pei Hao with wise eyes, waiting for how he would round out this statement next.
After all, I am still too young and still need to be tempered.
Pei Hao was not impetuous and said very calmly: "The Yanmen, which has not yet developed, is not even a wolf, how can it be called a tiger? The emperor is the real dragon emperor, even if the Yanmen is really a little tiger , he will turn into a cat when he comes to the emperor."
The emperor smiled heartily and said, "Chengming, you have changed. You have also learned to flatter."
“I don’t know how to flatter someone, I always tell the truth.”
"Ha ha."
The emperor stopped laughing and said seriously: "Okay, I agree."
It’s just three people, so it’s nothing to worry about.
So Du Wanzheng was struggling with how to convince the emperor, but Pei Hao was able to complete it so lightly.
The emperor was satisfied.
Pei Hao is also happy. He will have a valid reason to find the little girl tomorrow.
And Du Wan returned to the house.
Seeing that it was still early for lunch, I put on my training clothes and ran to practice sword practice.
It was almost noon before we stopped.
Before she could return to Yulingyuan, Yan’s mother, who was beside the eldest princess, came to find her.
Yan's mother said respectfully: "Princess Qi, Your Highness, please come over."
"OK."
Du Wan took the wet handkerchief handed over by Ningqin and wiped the sweat before following Yan's mother to the main courtyard.
