Taking the initiative to remarry! The crazy prince is obsessed with me

Shen Xiyue asked, "Girl? Are you talking about Zhilan?"

Cheng Congxian nodded: "Yes! My father said she went to look for some ore."

Shen Xiyue frowned, and a trace of fear arose in her heart... Iron ore, that is the ore needed for the steelmaking technique that Gu Zhilan mentioned in her previous life.

Weapons made from that material that could cut through iron like mud were coveted by all the generals... Later, after King Yao ascended the throne, he had no scruples when he destroyed the Shen family.

Fortunately, Shen Xiyue remembered that the iron ore in her previous life was found at the foot of Yanshan Mountain near the capital a year later.

She breathed a sigh of relief and forced herself to put it aside for the time being.

What is more urgent now is the opium that is about to arrive ashore.

Shen Xiyue resumed his dandy look: "I am not a stingy person. From now on in Hangzhou, I will protect you. Ah Luo, pour the wine!"

Ah Luo then stood up, walked to Cheng Congxian, poured him a glass of wine, and said in a soft voice: "Mr. Cheng, please."

Cheng Congxian felt like his soul was melting: "Brother Xun, don't worry, I will listen to you from now on!"

"You all listen to me?" Shen Xiyue raised her eyebrows deliberately: "Really?"

Cheng Congxian quickly promised: "It couldn't be more true! This is why my father asked me to come here, and this is what I thought too!"

Shen Xiyue looked at him with a half-smile: "That's perfect, I have a lot of things to do!"

Cheng Congxian's eyes lit up immediately: "What's the matter? Brother Xun, tell me quickly! It's fine if I can help you. I won't mention whether it's hard or not. Just treat it as practice. Brother Xun, just tell me and I'll do it!"

Shen Xiyue looked at Cheng Congxian sideways and said, "Originally, this disaster relief mission was mine! Now... the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace is repairing the river embankment in Suzhou City. Did you know that?"

Cheng Congxian looked bewildered: "I know... I also know that I was fired because of you, Brother Xun, who posted notices all over the capital!"

Shen Xiyue: "......"

Did you hear that, Qi Xun? This is what they mean when they say good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news travels a thousand miles!

Shen Xiyue deliberately made an angry expression, raised her hand and slapped Cheng Congxian on the head:

"Am I telling you this? What I'm telling you is that you should find more people to help the prince repair the river bank, so that he can return to the capital as soon as possible!"

Cheng Congxian's eyes widened: "Brother Xun, what are you doing? The prince is trying to hurt you, and you still want to help him? Are you stupid?"

Shen Xiyue kicked Cheng Congxian and said, "Don't ask about my affairs... Never mind, it doesn't hurt to tell you. The woman who helps your father with his business is my sweetheart, you know that, right?"

Cheng Congxian showed an expression that said, "I understand, I understand!"

"You know nothing!" Shen Xiyue looked at him with contempt.

"She has put a lot of obstacles in the way of the prince for my sake. I am afraid that the prince, who is so petty, will deliberately rob her cargo ship. Do you understand?! Go find someone to help him repair the river bank quickly, and I will feel at ease."

"I see! Brother Xun, don't worry, I'll go find him right away!" Cheng Congxian was very excited: "Brother Xun, my father is also worried about this cargo ship! Your idea is good! Just wait, I will definitely help you send the prince away quickly!"

"Stop talking big. I just want to ask you, do you have enough manpower?" Shen Xiyue asked Cheng Congxian while looking at him sideways.

Cheng Congxian choked up: "Aren't there people...all over the streets?"

Shen Xiyue rolled her eyes at him and said, "Repairing the riverbank is hard work, and the people on the street can't do it."

Cheng Congxian looked curious: "I understand this, but where can I find someone..."

Shen Xiyue rolled her eyes. "None of your guards can do this! This job requires strength. The workers carrying heavy bags at the docks have strength, you know?"

"Of course I know, who doesn't know that?" Cheng Congxian looked flattering.

Shen Xiyue said meaningfully: "Just find them, pay them enough wages, and provide them with three meals of braised pork a day. That will be enough for you."

"That's right!" Cheng Congxian slapped his thigh again, "I understand! My father told me to listen to you a long time ago. Brother Xun, don't worry, I will definitely get this done!"

"Go quickly today, otherwise you will have trouble at night!" Shen Xiyue reminded.

After a pause, he added, "Come back and watch Luo dance again!"

"Okay, okay!" Cheng Congxian agreed happily and rushed out immediately.

Watching him rush out, Shen Xiyue swung her feet with a smile on her face. With this momentum, Cheng Congxian would have to recruit all the port contractors in Hangzhou!

Without workers at the dock, the opium cargo would rot on the ship when Cheng Su’s ship arrives!

Shen Xiyue glanced at the brocade box containing the banknotes with a smile, then waved her hand: "Everyone, go out."

The beauties in the room retreated like the tide, leaving only frosted leaves.

Shuang Ye frowned and looked at Shen Xiyue: "Master, do you want me to find a way to sink their ship when the time comes?"

She is fully aware of the harmful effects of opium.

"There's no rush yet."

Shen Xiyue pondered for a moment, put the banknote in her hand back into the box, and handed it to Shuangye again: "There are too many ships, and we can't do it alone. It will take several days to dock. Please go to Suzhou first and take the banknote to His Highness."

Frost Leaf nodded, reached out to take the banknote, turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

Only after settling these things did Shen Xiyue breathe a sigh of relief.

Qin Qing waited at the city gate for many days, and finally she got her chance.

Early in the morning, when she was sleeping, she heard someone pointing and saying that Lord Cheng's young master had gone out of the city.

She quickly leaned over the crowd to see.

The young master Cheng who was surrounded in the middle was white and plump, with crude features and a somewhat innocent look.

All in all, it feels deceptive.

At least with her beauty, I think she will definitely charm him!

Qin Qing thought so and immediately took action, leaving the shack area where the disaster victims were temporarily taking refuge. She walked along the stream, found a secluded place, took off her clothes, and washed herself thoroughly from head to toe.

Looking at the figure on the water, she felt relieved that she finally regained her cute appearance as before.

“I went to Suzhou…”

Qin Qing felt a little scared. Suzhou was not a good place at all!

But in order to enter Hangzhou City, she endured it and waited on the road from Suzhou to Hangzhou.
