176 woke up dazed and said cutely, "Ah, wasn't it the main system that sent someone to contact him?"
At this point, it was reassembled again, believing that it was still bound to Shi Erbao.
The Emperor System was furious. "Damn it! Didn't you remind him? If I wanted to send someone to contact him, wouldn't I have notified you?!"
The response was a crackling sound from 176, indicating a communication breakdown.
The Emperor System was furious and suspected that Shi Erbao had also been in contact with Luo Wei.
But why did he join Xiao's army?
Zhao Yun asked curiously, "Is it possible that Xiao Zhixing intercepted Luo Wei's plan?"
With Luo Wei's power eradicated, Xiao Zhixing was fully aware of what had happened. She went to contact Shi Erbao on Luo Wei's behalf and gained his trust.
The Emperor System couldn't understand, "Xiao Zhixing didn't know the system existed, so how did she gain Shi Erbao's trust?"
Zhao Yunqi reminded her, "She has met Wu Xu and Cheng Lang."
Perhaps she already knows everything about the existence of the so-called system.
The Emperor System fell into a state of utter silence.
Zhao Yunqi said helplessly, "Sooner or later she will figure out where you are. The only consolation is that you are not as easily countered as a subsystem."
The Emperor System fell completely silent; what kind of consolation was that?
Zhao Yunqi said, "Old friend, to be honest, I actually suggest that you bind yourself to her after I die. No matter what your past with Xiao Yan is like, it seems that she is the true ruler you are looking for. She can achieve your goal."
The Emperor System remained silent.
Zhao Yunqi sighed, "Now that things have come to this, are you still fantasizing that the crown prince you've found can rival her?"
The Emperor System remained stubbornly silent.
"To tell you the truth, aside from my relationship with Xiao Yan, I actually admire her very much. Sometimes I even fantasize about how wonderful it would be if she were my child. With such an heir, I could leave in peace, and you, my old friend, could also achieve great things with her."
"Stop being so stubborn. The idea that a woman can't be emperor is just prejudice. Xiao Yan chose not to go back then, which is why your excuse was able to suppress her."
"Xiao Zhixing is no good. With her personality, even if we bring up Xiao Yan and Xiao Yuzhen, we still can't control her."
The Emperor System said, frustrated, "...Let me think about it some more."
It was somewhat unwilling to admit its mistakes, breaking with Xiao Yan, binding itself to Zhao Yunqi, and aggressively developing subsystems—none of these were wrong.
Now everything has vanished, and it has to submit to the enemy's daughter.
How can I make it not feel uncomfortable?
Finally, the Emperor System said, "Two years. If she is still the leader after two years, I will seriously consider her."
It will keep a close eye on her during this time to see just how far she can go in causing trouble.
And Xiao Yan, where is she hiding?
Xiao Zhixing withdrew the listening device with satisfaction.
Two years later, we must make it truly convinced.
Xiao Zhixing got up, pushed open the window, and saw autumn leaves falling outside, another autumn had passed and winter had arrived.
Beizhou has entered a period of rapid and stable development.
The other three northern states followed suit and joined in.
With the border wars between the four countries temporarily over, Da Sheng seemed to have gained a brief period of peace.
Time flies, and from autumn to winter, the northern land is soon covered in white snow.
"A timely snowfall promises a bumper harvest, but don't forget the potential for snow disasters."
At the routine monthly meeting, Xiao Zhixing reminded Ji Bai, "Have the staff below do more publicity and visits, and organize everyone to shovel snow."
Nowadays, cement is widely used in Beizhou. This stuff has even been improved by the people of Baigongyuan, and its improved effect is comparable to special cement.
The houses of ordinary people are much more sturdy after use, reducing the risk of collapse.
With the addition of the heated brick beds she built last year and the development of coal, the people of Beizhou are no longer afraid of wind and snow.
As the year draws to a close, she has to travel around to the grassroots level to personally check the effects of the implementation of various policies in Beizhou, identify problems, and solve them.
She also disliked making a big fuss and often traveled secretly with a group of guards, so that she could truly see what she wanted to see.
On this day, she arrived at Guixiong Pass.
Now that the two countries have ceased hostilities, caravans from both sides have resumed their exchanges, making Guixiong Pass and Xincheng very lively.
Xiao Zhixing came to reward the army and have some fun with everyone.
"Your Highness, the skiing competition you mentioned last time is having its finals today. Would you like to go and watch? It would be good to boost the morale of the soldiers."
Xiao Zhixing agreed, saying that many ski resorts had been opened up on the mountainside next to Guixiong Pass, and the soldiers had all fallen in love with the sport since she took her guards there last month.
After playing a few games with everyone and awarding prizes to the top three, Xiao Zhixing returned to the General's Mansion and said to Xiao Dong and Su Zhen, "Keep an eye on the Northern Barbarians. With such heavy snow this winter, things must be even worse there."
Although it was agreed that there would be no war for two years, we still had to guard against them launching surprise attacks and looting.
The two expressed their understanding, noting that heavy troops were now deployed along the northern border, and the soldiers' warlike spirit had greatly increased. They were all waiting for the northern barbarians to come so they could seize heads and make great contributions.
Military operations have been temporarily suspended, but Xiao Zhixing has not stopped using other means of action.
The Northern Merchant Guild subtly controlled the livelihood and economy of the Northern Barbarians by using salt, tea, liquor, and white paper.
Among them, Dasheng's coins are the biggest weapon.
Because the other four countries mostly prefer to use Dasheng coins, the Dasheng currency system has spread throughout the Qian Yuan continent.
She also holds a large amount of copper and aluminum ore; with a single monetary policy, she could bring down the economies of the other four countries.
It's not that she's cruel or disregards the lives of ordinary people in other countries.
An enemy country is an enemy country. You may pity them, but they will not pity you.
Only by unifying the five kingdoms and completely transforming them into the people of the Great Sheng will she show them mercy.
The economic infiltration being carried out by the Northern Continent Merchant Guild will be a key foreshadowing of the war for unification.
