Chapter 413: Still dont like me?

Du Wan has never thought about making ice with saltpeter. But when she asked about saltpeter, Du Qian asked her what saltpeter was instead.

For a while, Du Wan couldn't find the ingredients to make ice.

If the eldest princess had not been pregnant, Du Wan would have taken her to the royal summer resort in the suburbs.

The eldest princess looked at her daughter eating fruit and asked, "Why don't you go outside and watch the fun?"

"What's there to see? Wait until the final competition to join in the fun." Du Wan knew that the excitement she was talking about was the emperor's selection of his consort.

Portraits of young talents submitted from various places were carefully selected and sent to the capital in a steady stream. After the queen's selection, if they are deemed to meet the conditions, they can go to Beijing. Young people who come to Beijing to run for election can stay at Wangyue Tower for free as long as they hold a government-stamped post.

Yes, it is the Wangyue Tower that was sealed before.

This is just the preliminary selection, and they have to go through multiple screenings and then the final competition.

The eldest princess asked again: "Where is your eldest brother? He has not been seen recently."

He went to see the progress of the fortifications on the city wall.

Something happened? Ive never seen him ask about it before.

Its because the weather is too hot and there are too many people suffering from heatstroke. Du Wan knew that construction was very hard without asking, But even so, there are still a lot of people going there to look for work.

The world is difficult and the work is tiring, but at least I can earn some money in exchange for food.

The eldest princess said: "Let your elder brother make some herbal tea and send it to you."

"I've been up early, and I've prepared several doctors. It's just a lack of ice." The more Du Wan thought about it, the more important it was to find saltpeter. When she returned to her yard, she called the butler, "I want to find something."

What is the princess looking for?

"A kind of stone." Du Wan described the saltpeter in detail, "You arrange for someone to look for it."

Yes. The chief steward went down to make arrangements.

Du Wan didnt have high hopes, but it was better than not letting anyone find him.

Lately, she has been paying close attention to the situation at Zhuang Cong. There is a stream running around the farm and there is sufficient water. Everything that Du Wan envisioned went smoothly. A few days ago, the two hundred guards went to the beach to make salt again. This time, Du Wan did not go with them.

Princess, Miss Qin Jiu is here to visit. Ning Qin reminded.

Du Wan was stunned for a moment and said, "Please come in."

Its been a long time since we last met, and she almost forgot about Qin Jiu.

Qin Jiufeng came in in a hurry, and only stopped when he saw Du Wan.

The girl who used to always smile now has red eyes.

Du Wan motioned Qin Jiu to sit down, and then asked Ning Qin and others to prepare tea and snacks.

After Ningqin and others served tea, Du Wanping stepped back and asked, "What happened?"

Yes, its my mother who wants to see me. Qin Jiu stirred the silk handkerchief in his hand uneasily.

Du Wan was stunned for a moment, "This..."

I didnt expect it, its because I want to see each other.

Du Wan thought of Du Qian again, "Which one do you want to see? Don't you like it?"

Hearing this, Qin Jiu raised his head sadly and glanced at her, "Don't you remember what happened before?"

Du Wan was silent.

I have ten years of memories, and I recall that Qin Jiu has been fond of Du Qian since he was a child.

The original owner had a hard time with Qin Jiu before because he learned that Qin Jiu liked Du Qian and thought that Qin Jiu was with her just to get close to Du Qian. He was very unhappy.

Qin Jiu was silent when he saw her, "Don't you still like me?"

"No, I quite like you." Du Wan said from her heart.

Qin Jiu was prepared to be disliked, but when he suddenly heard her words, he was stunned, and then burst into tears.

Du Wan was caught off guard.

Why do you think she is a scumbag?

Du Wan knew that it would be better to talk things over today, "Qin Jiu, I know you like my brother, and I don't exclude you from being my sister-in-law, but I won't help you. As long as you can sincerely impress my eldest brother and let my eldest brother If I fall in love with you, nothing else will be a problem.

Qin Jiu looked at her with burning eyes.

Du Wan had a headache, "Let's talk about the matter today. Whether you can marry my eldest brother depends on your ability." "Seriously, do you like me?"

Yeah, I like it. Du Wan nodded seriously.

Qin Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."

Then Qin Jiu smiled at her, suddenly stood up excitedly, came to Du Wan, and gave her a big bear hug.

Du Wans mouth twitched.

Looking at Qin Jiu's appearance, how could he be so sure that he was her sister-in-law?

Qin Jiu thought of something and immediately said in a hurry: "I want to go back quickly to stop my mother from finding a family for me. Princess, I'm leaving first. Thank you for today."

Oh, oh. Du Wan nodded perfunctorily.

Qin Jiu left in a hurry.

Come and go in a hurry, without even a sip of tea.

When Du Wan encountered this kind of thing, he wanted to find someone to share it with, so he hurriedly went to find Pei Hao.

Looking back, she didn't see him for two days.

Pei Hao is recovering well now, and his fracture injuries are also healed. However, according to the public, he has not recovered yet, and he only occasionally shows up in front of others.

Du Wan climbed over the wall and entered the Zhen Guogong Mansion, arriving at Tingyu Residence.

Unexpectedly, we found that there were half as many secret guards as before, and Hu San was not there either.

Sneak into the house through the window.

There is no one in the room, except that there is someone on the bed.

If the bed curtain is down, the person should be asleep.

Du Wan tiptoed close to the bed curtain and slowly opened it, expecting to see Pei Hao. However, she was suddenly greeted by a long sword. She did not expect that there would be an emergency.

This made Du Wan's heart tremble.

Almost relying on instinct, he leaned back and avoided the sword.

In an instant, the distance was widened.

Du Wan stared at the bed, "Who? Come out?"

Princess, Princess? The person on the bed exclaimed in fright.

A young man rolled down from the bed. He was wearing Pei Hao's robe. His face was somewhat similar to Pei Hao's. He was still holding a long sword in his hand. He rolled to the ground and immediately knelt down in front of Du Wan. "Damn it! This subordinate deserves to die!" I just thought it was an assassin who drew the sword, I'm sorry."

Are you Prince Peis secret guard?

Yes, yes. Even if he is a secret guard, he is also a substitute.

The master of a wealthy family usually has several substitutes.

Today's young substitute did not expect that the dignified princess would climb through the window, and was secretly complaining in his heart.

Du Wan didn't mean to blame him, but asked strangely: "What are you doing? Where is your prince?"

The young man lowered his head and said nothing.

Even if the other party is the princess and the prince's fiance, there are some words that he should not answer. For example, the master's whereabouts cannot be revealed.

Du Wan waited for a long time, but she didn't even wait for his answer before she understood, "Okay, if it's not convenient, I won't tell you. I just asked casually, I don't really need to know."

Thank you, Princess. The young man was obviously relieved.

Du Wan didn't see Pei Hao, so he didn't stay long. "The princess will leave first. When your heir apparent comes back, just tell him that I came to see him."

Yes, my subordinates will definitely tell the crown prince.

"Um."

Du Wan turned around and came to the window again, turned over and left.

Todays trip was in vain
