Chapter 413 Still don’t like me

It’s not that Du Wan had never thought about making ice with saltpeter. But when she asked about saltpeter, Du Qian asked her what saltpeter is?

For a moment, Du Wan couldn't find the material even if she wanted to make ice.

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

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

"What's so good about it? Let's join in the fun after the final competition." Du Wan knew that what she was talking about was the emperor's choice of the prince consort.

The portraits of young talents handed over from all over the country were quickly delivered to the capital after three or four choices. After the queen's selection, she could go to Beijing if she thought she met the conditions. Young people who came to Beijing to run for election could stay in Wangyue Tower for free with the post stamped by the government.

Yes, it is the Moon Tower that was seized before.

This is just a primary election, and it has to go through screening after screening, and then to the final competition.

The eldest princess asked again: "Where is your elder brother? There are no people recently."

"He went to see the progress of the fortifications in the city wall."

"What happened? I haven't seen him before."

"It's because the weather is too hot and there are too many people with heatstroke." Du Wan knew that construction was very hard without asking, "but even so, there are still many people looking for work there."

The world is difficult and working is more tiring, and at least you can earn some money for food.

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

"I've been working long ago, and I've prepared several doctors. I just lack ice." The more Du Wan thought about it, the more she felt that it was important to find saltpeter. When she returned to her yard, she recruited a butler, "I want to find something."

"What are the princesses looking for?"

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

"Yes." The butler went down to arrange it.

Du Wan didn't have much hope, but she was better than not someone to look for her.

Recently, she has been paying close attention to the situation in Zhuangcong. There is a water stream around the farm and sufficient water resources. The things that Du Wan had originally imagined went smoothly. A few days ago, the two hundred guards went to the beach to make salt, but this time Du Wan did not follow him.

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

Du Wan was stunned, "Please invite her in."

Long time no see, she almost forgot about Qin Jiu.

Qin Jiufeng came in gloriously and stopped when he saw Du Wan.

The girl who used to be smiling now has red eyes.

Du Wan signaled Qin Jiu to sit down and asked Ningqin and others to prepare tea hearts.

After Ningqin and others served tea, Du Wan stepped back and said, "What happened?"

"Yes, it's my mother who wants to see me." Qin Jiu disturbed the silk handkerchief in his hand.

Du Wan was stunned, "This..."

I didn't expect it because I wanted to see each other.

Du Wan thought of Du Qian again, "Which family do you like? Do you don't like it?"

Qin Jiu looked up sadly when he heard this, and looked at her, "Don't you remember what happened before?"

"..." Du Wan was silent.

I have ten years of memory and remembered that Qin Jiu was happy to Du Qian since he was a child.

The original owner was unable to get along with Qin Jiu in the past because he learned that Qin Jiu liked Du Qian and thought that Qin Jiu was having fun with her in order to get close to Du Qian, and he was very unhappy.

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

"No, I like you very much." Du Wan said in her heart.

Qin Jiu was ready to be disliked, but he didn't expect that when he suddenly heard her say this, he was stunned, and then tears flowed.

Du Wan was caught off guard.

Why do you think she is a scumbag?

Du Wan knew that it would be better to talk about the matter today, "Qin Jiu, I know you like my brother. I don't reject you as my sister-in-law, but I won't help you. As long as you can really impress my brother and make my brother fall in love with you, nothing else is a problem."

Qin Jiu looked at her with bright eyes.

Du Wan had a headache, "I told you things up today. Whether you can marry my elder 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."

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

Du Wan's mouth twitched.

Judging from Qin Jiu's appearance, why are you very confident to be her sister-in-law?

Qin Jiu remembered something and immediately said anxiously: "I want to go back quickly and stop my mother from finding someone for me. Princess, I'll leave first, thank you today."

"Oh." Du Wan nodded perfunctorily.

Qin Jiu left in a hurry.

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

When Du Wan encountered such a thing, she wanted to find someone to share it, so she hurried to find Pei Hao.

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

Now Pei Hao's health has recovered well and his fracture has been cured. It is said to the outside world that he still has not recovered and will occasionally show up in front of others.

Du Wan climbed over the wall and entered the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and came to Tingyuju.

Unexpectedly, there was no secret guard less than before, and Hu San was not there.

Slide into the room through the window.

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

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

Du Wan tiptoed to the bed curtain and slowly lifted it open, thinking that she would see Pei Hao, but suddenly she welcomed a long sword. She did not expect an emergency.

This made Du Wan's heart tremble.

Almost leaned back by instinct and avoided a sword.

In an instant, the distance was widened.

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

"County, princess?" The person on the bed exclaimed in fear.

A young man rolled down from the bed, wearing Pei Hao's robe, with a look similar to Pei Hao. He was holding a long sword in his hand. He rolled to the ground and immediately knelt in front of Du Wan, "Damn it! I just thought it was an assassin, so I could draw the sword. I'm sorry."

"Are you Pei Shizi's secret guard?"

"Yes, yes." It is said that it is a secret guard and a substitute.

Du Wan knew that wealthy families sometimes had a few substitutes.

Today, this young man's substitute didn't expect the princess to climb over the window and was complaining secretly.

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

"..." The boy lowered his head and didn't say anything.

Even if the other party is the princess and the prince's fiancée, some words are not what he should have answered. For example, the master's whereabouts cannot be revealed.

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

"Thank you, Princess." The boy breathed a sigh of relief.

Du Wan didn't see Pei Hao, so she stopped staying for a long time. "The princess will leave first. When your prince comes back, he will tell him, and just say I'll come to find him."

"Yes, my subordinates will definitely tell the prince."

"Um."

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

Today is a waste of time...
