Zixuan and Hongfeng left Lecheng overnight.

Song Zhi urged them to return to the Long family as soon as possible, as long as they infected all the people in the Long family, their mission would be completed.

After seeing these two people off, Song Zhi felt a lot more relieved.

She was not afraid at all that the two would turn against her. If they wanted to, they would do it without any panic. It would not affect anything at all.

Two days later, the secret guards brought news that Cang Jian had arrived at the capital of Wei State, but had not seen Liu Ruoyu yet.

It is said that the prince of Wei is now obsessed with Liu Ruoyu, and has placed her in the most exquisite pavilion and given her whatever she wants.

Cang Jing does not have any identity that can exert any pressure, so it would be difficult for him to meet Liu Ruoyu.

The secret guard asked, "Do you need our subordinates to lend a hand to Master Cang?"

Song Zhi shook his head. "He knows what to do."

The secret guard retreated and quickly disappeared into the night.

Mu Nanqi asked, "Do you want him to bang his head against the wall?"

"Only when he gets hurt can he know what he really wants, which is good for him."

"Makes sense."

Mu Nanqi agreed deeply, "After all, you made me hit my head against the wall in the same way before."

"I?"

Song Zhi made an expression that said, "I can't talk nonsense," and firmly denied it.

"I do not have."

Mu Nanqi said quietly, "When you were determined to marry Mu Qinghan, I even prepared a group of people to steal your bride away. If you change your mind, I can take you away at any time. But if you really like Mu Qinghan and want to marry him, I will also help you."

As soon as these words came out, Song Zhi felt as if he had instantly returned to the memories of his previous life.

At that time, she was completely wrapped in festive red silk, and he rode his horse beside the sedan chair with dignity and asked.

"You really want to get married?"

The voice was cold, with a chill that penetrated into the heart.

She sat upright in the sedan chair. "I'm already in the sedan chair. Isn't the answer obvious?"

At that time, it was this sentence that persuaded him to quit.

He mistakenly thought that she really loved Qinghan, so he gave up on snatching the bride.

Because after saying this, there was no sound outside the sedan chair.

Soon, the sound of horse hooves could be heard gradually fading away.

Thinking of this, Song Zhi turned around and put her arms around his waist. "Aqi, I have never liked anyone else. Even when I agreed to Mu Qinghan's engagement before, it was definitely not because I liked him. The only person I liked from the beginning to the end was you."

"In the previous life as well?"

Ever since Long Wu mentioned his previous life in the Heavenly Prison, Song Zhi told him about his previous life on the way here.

Song Zhi carefully recalled her feelings in her previous life. If at the beginning she just felt that Mu Nanqi was impolite and didn't want to pay any more attention to him.

Then later, as he saved her from danger time and time again, she had already fallen in love with him without realizing it.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken the initiative to look for him in this life.

So she told him very firmly, "Yes, it was the same in the previous life."

Mu Nanqi's eyes suddenly blossomed with spring, and he lowered his head to bury his head in her ear.

"Azhi, after everything stabilizes, let's have a child."

Song Zhi nodded, "Okay."

It would be nice to have a child who is as good-looking, soft and warm as Mu Nanqi.

The two of them hugged each other tenderly. Xiao Tao happened to come over and immediately said with a frown, "Don't look at anything indecent. Don't look at anything indecent. I didn't see anything."

After that, he walked around them and walked to another place, pretending to shout, "Mrs. Empress, Mrs. Empress, where are you? A large number of people have gathered at the city gate to make trouble. Lord Meng is waiting for you to make a decision outside."

Song Zhi was very dissatisfied with Xiao Tao's poor acting skills of covering her own ears and stealing the bell. She said disdainfully: "Alright, alright, I will go and take charge of the situation now."

She walked out leisurely and saw Meng Qi sweating profusely from anxiety.

"Boss, what should we do? The number of those people is much greater than I imagined, and people from various cities are constantly rushing here."

Song Zhi asked, "Can the city gate still hold out?"

Speaking of this, Meng Qi immediately put on a confident and proud look and patted his chest.

"Of course. Not to mention ordinary people, even if there were so many enemy troops, I guarantee they wouldn't be able to easily break through the city gates I'm guarding."

Song Zhi nodded in relief, "That's all. Don't disturb me until they are all here."

Meng Qi was stunned. "Here...are you all here?"

"Of course. Otherwise, if two people come, it will cost me more to come out at once. When they are almost all here, we can take them all out at once."

Those people told her to get out of Phoenix Country, and she didn't want to support so many people who eat for free.

If famine strikes in a while, how much food will these people waste?

Song Zhi felt sad just thinking about it, so he decided to deal with it as soon as possible so that he could feel at ease.

Song Zhi waved his hand and left it to Meng Qi to deal with the situation at the city gate. He then went to the library to look for ancient books on how to deal with epidemics, hoping that they would be helpful to Doctor Jiang.

Meng Qi was completely confused and returned to the city wall in a daze.

Although he didn't know what to say specifically, he knew that as long as he didn't let those people in, there would be no problem.

So he cleared his throat and said, "You guys should just go back to where you came from. Aren't you tired of it? You keep yelling at me to get out. Why don't you just get out on your own?"

He put his hands on his hips and said, "Do you really think you're that great? What contributions have you made to the Phoenix Nation that you dare to boast like that? After the empress ascended to the throne, she reduced taxes and provided assistance to you so that you could live a good life. That was right, but she shouldn't have let you eat too much, lest you get too full and start trouble. The people in Renle City are not worried, but you are worried to death. You really make a fool of yourself."

Everyone was stunned by what he said, and no one said a word for a long time.

Meng Qi turned aside and said, "Alright, alright, let's all go back."

"We won't go back."

Finally someone reacted and raised his hand and waved it high.

"Don't be fooled by appearances. It's unlucky for a woman to hold a high position. Otherwise, how could an epidemic break out right after she took the throne?"

"That's right. If we don't expel her, there's no guarantee that the plague won't spread to our city."

"Kick out the empress and elect a new one!"

"Drive out the Empress! Drive out the Empress!"

They shouted at the top of their lungs, trying to force Song Zhi away with their momentum.

However, Song Zhi in the library was too lazy to pay attention to them.

Even the people in Lecheng gathered at the city gate and pointed and talked.

"What are they yelling about there?"

"I heard they want to drive the empress away? Are you crazy? How could we have such a good life if we drove the empress away? We in Lecheng will not drive the empress away."

"That's right. We firmly support the Empress. Long live the Empress."

Slowly, all the vendors near the city gate gathered around.

The two groups were like a fistfight across the city gate. Those outside shouted, "Drive out the Empress!" while those inside shouted, "No, absolutely not!"
