Xiao Zhixing had been closely monitoring the main system, and when she heard its conversation with the emperor, she became very interested.

What methods? What methods does the main system use?

"My people have arrived, but there are only about 20,000 of them. What good are they?" she heard the Emperor System say helplessly.

Is it another person or force controlled by the system?

This Emperor System is indeed top-tier in intelligence.

Except for the human body, it already possesses a human brain and mind.

Zhao Yun asked curiously, "Didn't they invent something called gunpowder? With such a powerful weapon, what is there to fear?"

The Emperor System was furious. "There aren't many of these things, they won't be able to kill many people. Those idiots only figured it out a while ago, what good is it now?"

Zhao Yunqi said "Oh", "Then let's use it in a critical moment. Now let's think about the current situation."

"I truly do not wish to make Zhao Lin the crown prince, not because of his background, but because he is weak and incompetent, completely controlled by the Zhang family, and has no opinions of his own. He would find it difficult to be a peaceful ruler, let alone control the current chaotic situation."

"Then what do we do? If you die unexpectedly, who will take over the world?" The system became even more agitated. "Alright, alright, let's think about it again and try our best to save your life."

If... it doesn't mind taking control of his body and taking him south.

Does it matter if you ask it, is saving face more important than life?

As long as a person is alive, what can't be accomplished?

There was a man named Han Xin on Earth who endured the humiliation of crawling between someone's legs, but he still rose to prominence afterward.

Xiao Zhixing carefully reviewed the dialogue between the main system and the emperor, marking the points he discovered.

She was most interested in the power that belonged to the system, and she was curious about how it had developed.

And gunpowder, now that she's made it, wouldn't you mind if she took the easy way out?

She was pleased that they considered her a formidable opponent.

Even if they only valued the bloodline that belonged to Xiao Yan from the original owner.

Does the system still favor sons over daughters?

Xiao Zhixing pursed his lips.

What era are we living in? How can high-tech products still be incorporating feudal dregs? This is utterly absurd.

She was also thinking about what she could do to her advantage.

Just as Zhao Yunqi said, if Zhao Lin becomes the crown prince or succeeds to the throne, the world will surely be in chaos.

Could she seize the opportunity to take the throne?

The downside of this matter is that the world will be in turmoil and fortune will be lost.

It may take several more decades to rebuild the nation's fortunes, which is not what she wants, as time waits for no one.

So, let's dispel Zhao Yunqi's idea of ​​establishing a crown prince, help him resolve the crisis, let him sit firmly on the throne, and bring peace to the world.

When the time comes, she will seize the throne of a prosperous and powerful nation.

However, this path is difficult.

She had to rack her brains because to achieve this goal, she needed to enhance her own prestige.

Even more importantly, it forced the main system to choose her.

Because in this chaotic situation, it's impossible to know what tricks the Emperor System will pull, whether it will bind to other hosts, or even escape directly.

A peaceful and stable capture has many advantages.

Moreover, she discovered that neither Zhao Yunqi nor the Emperor System cared whether someone was of imperial blood or not.

This presents a great opportunity.

After comparing the two paths, Xiao Zhixing had already made a decision.

She sent a telepathic message to Bai Feng, "Send a message to General Su, they can show themselves now."

Bai Feng transformed into a little eagle, took the letter with the character "Tiger," and quietly left.

She calculated the number of troops that could be reached, and it was about right.

As for the rest, we can only rely on planning and fate.

It's all up to human effort; if it's truly impossible, then do your best.

Xiao Zhixing continued to implement the subsequent part of the plan, harassing Xiao Long's camp throughout the night.

They set fires here and raided places there, making a ruckus in the Northern Barbarian camp and preventing them from getting any proper rest.

But she came and went as she pleased, and deliberately provoked them arrogantly: "I, Xiao Qingluan Xiao Zhixing, am here. You cowards, have you forgotten the will of your late Khan?"

"You're looking for revenge against my father, Xiao Yuanshan? Well, this lady is here, you'll have to get past me first!"

"You spineless cowards! Even your Eternal Heaven should be ashamed to the point of crawling between your legs! You cowards who dare not fight!"

The sound of the internal force being transmitted was extremely penetrating, echoing throughout the entire camp.

"Coward! Coward!" The words pierced their ears like a ghost call early in the morning.

"I'm so angry!"

Bang! The long strip in front of Xiao Long shattered into pieces. He was furious. "Military Advisor Li, you are not allowed to stop me anymore! I will not be satisfied until I have torn her to pieces!"

The tall, pale scholar stroked his long beard and calmly said:

"Your Highness, you must not act rashly. This Xiao Zhixing is very cunning and slippery, making him difficult to catch."

“I will personally lead the pursuit, along with my White Eagle King. Father is almost here, but the reinforcements from Dasheng have not yet arrived. With you guarding this place, that's enough. I will be able to return successfully in just half a day.”

Xiao Long couldn't hold back his hatred.

He had never suffered a loss at the hands of anyone in his entire life, and he wouldn't be able to swallow his anger until he caught the other party and tortured and humiliated him to death.

Military Advisor Li sighed helplessly, "Please, Your Highness, calm down and let me think of a way to lure her out, preferably with a single, decisive strike."

= = = = = = = = = = I am asking for a rating separator line

It was already the morning of the next day.

Xiao Zhixing munched on a tasteless milk biscuit while resting with the others in a cave.

Everyone hadn't slept all night, and now they were all taking the time to close their eyes and rest.

Xiao Zhixing quietly walked out of the cave, just as Xiao Yun returned with his brothers who had been exploring.

"Princess, we came from that side and discovered one of their hidden supply depots, guarded by only two or three hundred men."
