Tang Xicheng had no idea what was going on, but he could clearly feel that Kang Shi was not as enthusiastic towards him anymore.

So something must have happened when he went to the government office to find his son. Tangxi City immediately sensed the world's ability to influence the court for so many years.

The Kang family might be in great trouble this time. If I can help them through it, wouldn't Kang Jia's wealth be within my grasp?

Thinking of this, Tang Xicheng became a little more enthusiastic, and hurriedly asked him about Kangwen Road with a smile.

"Boss Kang, I heard your second son was wronged in the government office. Didn't you go to visit him? Why are you back so soon? And you look unhappy. Could it be that the second son has suffered?"

Kang Shi frowned slightly. He didn't want to tell the person in front of him about the current situation of the Kang family. After all, it was profitable for the other party to come to him.

If he knew that the Kang family was in trouble, he might just leave. It would be fine if he left, but if he was seen by someone with ulterior motives, wouldn't that bring disaster?

Moreover, the Kang family was wealthy and powerful, so it was not impossible for this person to take advantage of their misfortune. So he immediately relaxed and spoke to him with a smile.

"Mr. Tang is right. My second son has been through quite a bit of hardship in the government office. When I went to see him today, he had lost a lot of weight and was covered in wounds."

Tang Xicheng was stunned. Is Kang Wenlu okay? Could something have gone wrong with the medicine?

This shouldn't be the case. If something went wrong, how could Kang Wenhai be fine and why is there such an abnormal situation now?

But if the medicine worked, Kang Shi said that he saw his son and he was just slightly injured.

Tangxi City was confused for a moment. Was it the system that was deceiving him, or was it this old thing that was deceiving him?

In the end, after much thought, Tang Xicheng decided that he would rather believe in the system than this old thing.

After all, human hearts are unpredictable, and he doesn't want to take another gamble.

"They say the word 'official' has two mouths. Isn't the government arresting people just for money? You have a big family and a lot of wealth. Why don't you spend some money to save the second young master from suffering?"

Master Kang smiled and nodded repeatedly in agreement.

However, Tang Xicheng felt something was not right. If there was nothing wrong with the system, it would mean that Kang Shi was lying. Why would he deceive himself?

Could it be that there is some evidence in the hands of those two princes?

If that's the case, then wouldn't I be in danger?

"Boss Kang, your second son is willing to risk his life for the sake of the family cause. I admire his broad-mindedness."

"But now that so much time has passed, it seems that this plan has made no progress, and the Third Prince has not incurred public wrath. It is better to stop this plan. Otherwise, if your Second Young Master is implicated, the loss will outweigh the gain."

Tang Xicheng was simply testing the other party, so he said this deliberately. Now he really doubted whether Kang Shi had seen his son.

However, Kang Shi had never seen his son, and now he had no idea how far the plan would go, so he could only postpone it for the time being.

"Don't worry, Master Tang. This matter is all within my calculations. I have already changed my strategy and told you when we met just now. You may as well stay at the Kang family for a few more days. You will see the outcome in a few days."

After that, Kang Shi chatted with Tangxi Chengdong for a while before leaving.

After returning, Tang Xicheng started packing up without saying a word. Qingxue was really confused by this action and couldn't help but come up to ask.

"Your Highness, what are you doing? Why are you packing up? Are you leaving here?"

Tang Xicheng didn't even raise his head. While packing his things, he urged Qin Xuezhen to pack as well.

"Don't ask so many questions, just pack your things and follow me."

Qin Xuezhen knew that he had no right to ask more questions, so she went back to pack her things. Kang Shi had sent her a lot of interesting things during this period, and Qin Xuezhen wanted to take them all with her.

However, the system didn't provide her with any space, so if she wanted to bring these things with her, she had to carry them on her own.

Tang Xicheng couldn't help but frown when he saw her carrying so many bags.

"What are you carrying so many things for? We have a long way to go. Can you carry so many things? You are not expecting me to carry them for you, are you?"

Qin Xuezhen also felt aggrieved. He had told her earlier that he wanted to leave. If he had, she could have exchanged these for banknotes.

The two of them had been out for so long that the little money he had brought with him when he escaped from home had long been spent. He had relied on hunting for food along the way to survive. Qin Xue really didn't want to go through that kind of hard life again.

"Your Highness, you don't manage a household, so you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. Although these things are troublesome to carry, they can at least be used in an emergency on the road. Otherwise, what will we eat? Are we just going to have to rely on wind? You can handle it, but I can't."

Qin Xue rarely complained, but there was nothing she could do about it. She really couldn't bear the hardship.

I have traveled through time and space, but I am not here to cultivate immortality. Is it possible that I can still practice fasting?

After being confronted by her like this, Tang Xicheng had nothing to say and could only pull her away.

However, the servants of the Kang family saw the two people leaving with their bags and immediately ran to report to their master.

"They ran away. Why didn't you stop them?"

When Kang Shi learned that Tang Xicheng and Qin Xuezhen had run away, he was so angry that he smashed the teacup beside him.

However, these servants also felt aggrieved, because it was their master who had said that these two people could enter and exit any part of the Kang family at will, and they were not allowed to stop them and did not need to report.

If they hadn't felt it was a little strange this time, they wouldn't have known whether they should say it or not.

But at this time they did not dare to refute, for fear that their master would be unhappy and beat them to death.

Kang Shi didn't understand what was going on. He didn't understand why these two people left. Now his second son was gone, and his eldest son was in such a bad state. He didn't even have anyone to discuss things with.

But after thinking about it, he still felt that he should find the person and ask him first.

"Hurry up and get on the fast horses in the mansion and chase those two people back! If they dare to resist, knock them out and bring them back."

Something happened in my family not long ago, and these two people are in a hurry to run away. Maybe what happened in my family is related to them.

Even if it doesn't matter, if the two princes find out about the Kang family's affairs and want to arrest and punish them, handing them over might be able to make amends.

With this idea in mind, Kang Shi ordered his men to chase after the person. However, his men didn't know where to chase, so they could only search along the four city gates.

Little did they know that at this time Tang Xicheng was hiding in a farmer's house with Qin Xuezhen.

This family is quite unlucky. When they heard someone knocking on the door, they thought it was a neighbor. After opening the door, they were knocked unconscious, tied up and thrown into the house. Now they don’t know whether they are going to be robbed of their money or raped?
