The twins also followed Xie Shizhu's gaze and looked behind them. When they saw Xie Ji, their faces turned pale.
They were afraid that Xie Ji would hear it and were somewhat afraid of him.
After all, I heard that Xie Ji was crazy.
But Xie Ji didn't care about them at all, and was completely immersed in Xie Shizhu's words.
The twins ran away quietly and tiptoe, looking extremely embarrassed.
Xie Shizhu glanced at the two people who looked like mice, and slowly withdrew his gaze.
"Where have you been again?" Xie Shizhu's tone was filled with a hint of complaint.
Xie Ji smiled lightly and said, "Imperial sister, are you worried about me?"
Xie Shizhu was slightly stunned. "Nonsense, you are my brother. If I don't worry about you, who should I worry about?"
The smile on the man's lips suddenly froze, and his fluctuating eyes dimmed.
Xie Ji hated the identity of being a younger brother.
He pursed his lips and suddenly remained silent.
Xie Shizhu was very busy and had no time to care about Xie Ji. She reached out and patted the man's shoulder, and said in a gentler tone: "Don't run around recently. My sister still has a lot of things to do."
Xie Ji is very sensitive.
Xie Shizhu's words made him think a lot.
Does the princess think he is troublesome?
After Xie Shizhu finished his instructions, he turned around and disappeared from Xie Ji's sight.

Late at night, Zhong Changyao got very angry.
He rarely gets angry, but since he learned that Xie Shizhu and Fan Miaozhou were working together, the smile on his face has become less and less.
Zhong Changyao never expected that Xie Shizhu would use another way to solve the big trouble of Yue Kingdom.
After only a short period of time on the throne, she gained the admiration of her ministers.
Zhong Changyao didn't want things to develop like this, because once Xie Shizhu gained the support of all the officials in the court, it would mean that Xie Shizhu would no longer be under his control.
Then it was a mistake for him to support Xie Shizhu to take the position.
No, he wouldn't allow that to happen.
Zhong Changyao tightened his grip on the teacup until the porcelain cup shattered in his hand, cutting his fingers, and then he let go.
Ming Ruzhen knelt in front of him and was frightened by Zhong Changyao in front of him.
She bit her lower lip and dared not speak.
After a long while, Zhong Changyao opened his thin lips and said, "Find a scapegoat to take the blame for assassinating King Zhou."
Ming Ruzhen nodded: "Yes."
When Ming Ruzhen turned around to take care of the matter, Zhong Changyao's voice rang out from behind her: "You really didn't see the assassin who assassinated King Zhou that night?"
Ming Ruzhen's body stiffened, and he lied, "Yes, I didn't know that Prince Zhou was murdered that night. If I had known, I would not have gone to buy buns for Your Majesty, but would have followed the master to find the assassin."
Zhong Changyao said "hmm" lightly and didn't say anything else.
Ming Ruzhen bowed and left quickly.
As soon as she left, Zhong Changyao said with a half-smile, "You lied to me?"

Because of the cooperation between Yue Kingdom and Fan Kingdom, Fan Miaozhou temporarily stayed in the royal palace of Yue Kingdom.
Fan Miaozhou will meet with Xie Shizhu at noon, and the two will discuss the final result.
Fan Miaozhou sat opposite Xie Shizhu, and Ming Ruzhen poured him tea.
He never thought that he and Xie Shizhu would not get married, but become partners instead.
Xie Shizhu propped up his chin and went straight to the point without any nonsense: "Since you are helping Yueguo with its infrastructure and water diversion, you must sign an agreement. What if you regret it halfway through?"
After saying that, Xie Shizhu waved his hand, and Ming Ruzhen, who had just poured the tea, happily took the paper and brush.
The system looked at the sweat on Ming Ruzhen's forehead and said speechlessly: [Host, you are the evil capitalist. Ming Ruzhen is your wool, and you keep plucking her.]
Xie Shizhu raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I'm just giving her a chance."
The system suddenly understood.
The host is testing Ming Ruzhen.
If Zhong Changyao knew that they were about to sign the agreement, he would definitely come to stop them.
Therefore, only Ming Ruzhen leaked this matter.
System: [I see!]
Ming Ruzhen brought paper and a brush, and Xie Shizhu dipped some ink and wrote the agreement stroke by stroke.
Fan Miaozhou raised his eyes and stared at the woman's serious expression. He couldn't help but interrupt, "I suddenly feel like I've been at a disadvantage."
Xie Shizhu paused holding the brush and looked at him: "Why do you say that?"
Fan Miaozhou said calmly, "I spent so much manpower to help your Yue Kingdom solve the drought, and you exchanged it for beef and wine. Isn't that a bit too much?"
Xie Shizhu sneered in his heart, is he planning to increase the price before signing the contract?
In her own world, she often encountered situations where when signing a contract with Party A, the other party changed their mind and asked to change the plan.
Xie Shizhu smiled calmly and said, "Really? It seems that King Zhou doesn't know the value of beef. It contains many nutrients that the human body needs."
The system is not surprised: [I will just watch you edit! ]
Xie Shizhu kept working, writing the agreement while casually saying, "Do you know why the men in our Yue Country are all burly and live longer on average?"
Fan Miaozhou was stunned and couldn't help but take over her words: "Why?"
After Xie Shizhu finished writing the agreement, he put down his brush and looked up at Fan Miaozhou.
The woman smiled with her lips curled up, her sparkling eyes particularly clever and smart. She said, "Because I have been eating beef and drinking milk since I was a child."
Then the woman handed the brush to him.
The next second, Fan Miaozhou seemed to write his name uncontrollably.
After he finished writing, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have been bewitched by beauty.
But what Xie Shizhu said seemed to make some sense.
The men of Yue State are taller than the men of Fan State and live longer.
It seems to be inseparable from beef.
