MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince-Chapter 554 The queen asked Du Wan
Chapter 554 The Queen requests Du Wan
evening.
Du Wan went to the main courtyard.
Saw the eldest princess and Prince Consort Du having dinner.
The case has been solved. Prince Consort Du no longer has to work overtime and can finally return home on time to accompany his wife and children. "Wanwan, have you eaten?"
“Eat.” Du Wan responded with a smile.
Du Consort looked at her clothes and she still had a sword on her waist, "Are you going to the palace?"
"My eldest brother is still in the palace, I have to go and accompany him for a while." Du Wan was worried about something special happening, but it was more reassuring to just wait and see, "I won't have to worry about my uncle until he recovers a little."
"Your uncle will be very happy to hear this." The eldest princess smiled beside her.
Du Wan smiled naively, "That's right, I'm a filial little girl."
"Hahaha…"
Du Prince Consort couldn't help but laugh, and the eldest princess also covered her lips and laughed sullenly.
After saying hello, Du Wan ran away in a flash.
The eldest princess chuckled and said: "Your baby is still as funny as before. During this time, I thought she had grown up."
"She has grown up a bit." Du Huima saw that his daughter's words and deeds in the palace were all just right, which was not what ordinary naughty children could do. "She is confused when it comes to small things, but she is not ambiguous when it comes to big things."
The eldest princess nodded.
The eldest son reassured them that their daughter could also take charge of her own business.
The two began to pay attention to their younger son's future upbringing.
Du Wan’s side.
As soon as he entered the palace and before he reached the Zhenghe Hall, he was blocked by a little palace maid.
The little maid respectfully said that the queen had invited her, but Du Wan was not very happy to go. As a result, the maid knelt on the ground and blocked her way.
Usually when the palace people are so desperate, it is usually the master who gives the order to die.
The little palace maid knelt on the ground and kowtowed tremblingly, "Princess, please! Please go there. Your Majesty is now banned and cannot leave Dongfeng Palace, so I can only trouble you to go there."
Du Wan looked down at the trembling little palace maid kneeling in front of her.
The little palace maid is about twelve or thirteen years old. She is very thin and her hands are covered with calluses. She must be doing rough work. The queen has no one to use, and even the palace servants who are rough messengers are threatening her.
Chai Weidao behind him said, "Princess, do you want your subordinates to pull this person away?"
“No need, let’s go to Dongfeng Palace first.”
Du Wan turned around with a sullen face and headed towards Dongfeng Palace.
The little palace maid who was kneeling on the ground was overjoyed when she heard this and quickly got up and followed.
When I saw Du Wan again, the anger I had been harboring in my heart suddenly subsided.
The previous meeting with the Queen was only a few days ago. Obviously he was still dressed exquisitely and his sitting posture was still dignified, but his energy was gone, his face was extremely haggard, and his eyes were slightly sunken.
Du Wan walked into the room and sat in front of the queen.
The queen ordered tea and snacks.
People are fasted, but they are not treated unfairly when it comes to eating.
The queen looked outside and sighed in an ethereal voice: "I heard that Rong'er got married, but I, my aunt, didn't go there in person."
"If you don't see the person, then the courtesy will be enough." Du Wan pursed her lips and picked up the tea bowl.
The tea bowl was turning slightly in her hand, and green tea leaves were floating in the light green tea. The tea had not passed through anyone's hands, so Du Wan was cautious and did not drink it.
The Queen then said a few more words, mostly about matters outside the palace, as if she was chatting with Du Wan on a daily basis. Du Wan knew that the queen would ask for something when she invited him over, but she didn't know what she meant if she kept going on.
It's almost getting dark outside at this time. I wonder if my brother will be thinking about it because it's too late?
The two of them got along very calmly, with the Queen mostly talking and Du Wan listening quietly.
Du Wan did not show any emotion. On the surface, she listened very gently and obediently. As long as the queen asked anything, she would answer everything.
If you didn't know her previous casualness, you would have thought that she was a well-educated and well-behaved baby.
The queen suddenly begged politely: "Wanwan, can you help your cousin? You don't need to do anything, as long as you ask the emperor to spare your cousin's life."
“I…” Du Wan was stunned.
She didn’t really want to get involved in this matter, but when she wanted to refuse, she met the queen’s pleading eyes. Her mind couldn't help but flash back to the past, when the queen asked her to let Du Yunrong go, her expression was not like this. At that time, she was aloof and self-reliant.
At this time, she is a mother.
Like all mothers in the world, they can be humble for the sake of their children.
If Du Yunrong knew that the queen was like this, she would probably turn into lemon essence again.
Du Wan hesitated and said: "You should know how big of a mistake my cousin made this time. Even if you save your life, the future will not be easy."
The queen covered her eyes to hide her tears, and said sadly: "I understand in my heart, but as a mother, I still hope to save her life. Even if she loses her identity as a princess, it doesn't matter if she becomes a beggar like before. As long as she is a human being, Just stay alive.”
As she spoke, she choked up, "Wanwan, we shouldn't get her back."
“This is not your fault.”
“It’s strange that I, as a mother, didn’t teach her well.”
“…” Du Wan felt that the queen was too indulgent to Qin Yuyu and indeed did not teach her well.
This approval can only be thought about in the mind, but it is not easy to show it. It will hurt people's hearts a lot. They are already sad enough.
The queen was pitiful at this time and kept crying.
However, Du Wan was a hard-hearted person and never agreed to intercede until she looked outside the door. Night was about to fall. In order to leave early, she had no choice but to agree, "Okay, I will go and intercede with my uncle. What will happen to me?" There’s no guarantee, after all, I can’t influence my uncle’s decision.”
“Wanwan, do you really know how to plead for mercy?” The queen raised her head in surprise and asked urgently.
Du Wan nodded seriously, "I will go to Zhenghe Hall in a moment."
"Thank you very much." The queen then gestured to a palace attendant next to her. The man took out a small carved rosewood box and handed it to the queen respectfully.
The Queen handed it to Du Wan again, "This is my little wish."
“Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward.” Du Wan took it generously and put it away.
This is a bribe, she is familiar with it, she understands it.
Du Wan stood up to say goodbye, and the queen watched Du Wan leave with her own eyes.
The palace attendant behind the Queen said: "My Lady, will the Princess really intercede on behalf of the young master?"
"Since she agreed, she will do it." A girl from the direct line of the Du family has her own personal pride and will not lie for such a trivial matter.
"But the princess said it, it may not be useful."
"It's enough that she pleads for mercy. She is the most important person to the emperor now." The queen and the emperor have been married for many years, so how could they not know the emperor's personality? "After all, the emperor has benefited a lot from her."
The more benefits the emperor received, the more important Du Wan was.
Nowadays, Du Wan's words are more effective than her being a queen.
In this matter, the queen is very sensible and sees things clearly.
PS: Good night~
