Qin Xuezhen was tossed around for several days, and finally arrived at Wancheng with Tangxicheng.
However, after arriving here, I found out that most of the merchants here have already begun to surrender to the imperial court.
The plan to rebuild homes for the disaster victims is also progressing smoothly, and people on the streets are marveling at the wisdom and bravery of the two princes.
"Qin Xuezhen, ask the system in your body what's going on. Wasn't it said that the conflict between these merchants and the imperial court was very acute? How did it become like this?"
Qin Xuezhen was also helpless. This system was completely useless and it was pointless to ask it. But Tangxi City just didn't believe it.
"Your Highness, it's useless. This system can't do anything except provide some information and reveal two plot points."
Qin Xuezhen gave some aggrieved advice, but the other party didn't listen to her. The two of them were still sitting in the teahouse, and Tang Xicheng didn't care and grabbed her neck.
"Ask quickly! If you don't tell the truth, I will kill you right now!"
Qin Xuezhen originally thought that Wen Xiuting was the most cruel and cold-blooded person, but she didn't expect that the people in Tangxi City were even worse than him.
Along the way, whenever he was unhappy and wanted to find the system, he would be threatened with his life.
Unfortunately, Qin Xuezhen couldn't defeat this person, and the system refused to help, so she could only endure it.
[The system is coming out soon. His Highness wants to see you.]
[I've heard it. Based on their conversation just now, it seems that outsider must have done something to disrupt the cooperation between these merchants.]
Qin Xue was speechless. When the system was helping her, it couldn't even get to the point in three sentences. How come it knew everything now?
However, he didn't dare to complain and could only convey the message obediently.
"An outsider? He's the one who disrupted the original plot and delayed my unification. Ask this system, who exactly is this outsider?"
The system could hear Tang Xicheng talking, and without waiting for Qin Xuezhen to ask, it answered first.
"Tell the hero, this system cannot predict the specific person, but it is basically suspected to be the noble concubine of the Mu family, or someone around her."
Qin Xuezhen still conveyed the original words, but Tangxi City was not surprised at all.
"As expected, wherever they are, everything goes wrong for me. It seems that this is really related to the Mu family. But is this outsider the Imperial Concubine, or the little maidservant beside her?"
Tangxicheng knew that Qin Xuezhen was also an outsider, so he subconsciously thought that outsiders should be older.
He didn't suspect Yao Guangyue, the baby, at all, but Qin Xuezhen disagreed with him.
"Your Highness, I've been in contact with them for a while. I don't think the imperial concubine and the maids around her look like outsiders. On the contrary, that little kid is a bit strange. Even a few months old can't be recognized by people, but she can..."
"She's just a baby, barely wet behind the ears, unable to even speak. Do you think she can ruin my great cause?"
With Qin Xuezhen's filter of Tangxi City shattered, now looking at this man, he is really good for nothing except his appearance.
"Megalomaniac!"
Qin Xuezhen muttered this secretly, but the other party didn't hear it clearly and received a warning from the system instead.
【Host, please be mindful of your words and actions! 】
"Shut up now! Don't forget that I'm the host. Get out of my body if you can! When he needed help, you told him everything you could think of. When I needed help, you didn't know anything. Why didn't you go with him?"
The system was so angry that it was speechless. It really wanted to complain to Tangxi City, but it was useless. Tangxi City would never really do anything to Qin Xuezhen.
Moreover, every time it appears, it consumes a lot of energy. Qin Xue really hasn't completed any tasks, so her energy cannot be replenished. Now she can't withstand even the slightest consumption.
Otherwise, the system really doesn't want to continue to be tied to this stupid woman.
In order to avoid getting annoyed, the system simply hid itself without making a sound.
Tang Xicheng didn't know what was going on between Qin Xuezhen and the system. He was only thinking about how to bring these merchants under his control.
"The system said that you are the heroine of this world. You have a special aura in this world. What you do can often achieve twice the result with half the effort. You come and think of a way to win over the Kang family."
Now is the time to ask him to do something, but Tang Xicheng's tone of voice is still like an order.
This made Qin Xuezhen a little unhappy, so she deliberately didn't finish her words while thinking about it.
"According to the system's explanation just now, the alliance between merchants has been disintegrated. Can't we just get them to reunite?"
"Let's finish what we're saying. How do we get together?"
"As the saying goes, the world is bustling with people because of profit, and the world is bustling with people because of profit. The reason those merchants have been destroyed is that some families have become officials, while others have no descendants who can join the army and become officials. Can we solve this problem for them?"
This kind of thing was easy for a prince, so he sneered, thinking that this woman was indeed quite capable.
"In that case, let's go and ask for leave. As far as I know, neither of the two young masters of the Kang family can enter the military camp."
Soon, the Kang family's housekeeper received Tang Xicheng and Qin Xuezhen. The two came to the Kang family as out-of-town businessmen.
But Qin Xue really felt that the other party was deliberately making things difficult for them.
"Your Highness, why don't we leave? This tea is so bitter, it's obvious that you don't want to treat us well!"
"Shut up!"
While the two were talking, Kang Wenhai, the eldest son of the Kang family, suddenly jumped out.
"Oh, you two are the guests my father invited? The young lady is so beautiful."
Kang Wenhai is a real pervert. When he saw the beautiful Qin Xuezhen, he couldn't even walk.
When Qin Xuezhen heard what he said, she frowned and hid behind Tang Xicheng.
However, Tang Xicheng ignored him and just clasped his hands together and saluted the other party briefly.
"I wonder who you saw? I have something to ask the head of the Kang family."
Kang Wenhai mistakenly thought that they had come to his father's house to ask for a favor. In the past, if someone came to his father's house to do something, if they brought gifts, it meant that they were using money to pave the way.
But they didn't bring anything but brought a woman, which can only mean that this woman is a gift.
"My name is Kang Wenhai, the eldest son and grandson of the Kang family. I think this woman was given to my father. Now that my father has a new beautiful concubine, she may not be that new to outsiders."
"Why not give her to me? I'm the one you want to deal with, and I can help you with some things."
As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Xuezhen immediately became angry. She had never been treated like a gift in the imperial city, so why should he?
