The system favors me so much, I get eight meals a day while escaping from famine

The eldest prince was so worried that he had a headache. He really had no idea what to do.

Qin Xiang was also very anxious. He saw that the eldest prince's status in the emperor's heart would rise rapidly after he accomplished this task, but he didn't expect that something like this would happen at the last minute.

He frowned and thought of a vicious method, "Your Highness, how about we push this matter out?"

The eldest prince stopped and looked at Qin Xiang in surprise, "What do you have in mind?"

"I have a plan that kills two birds with one stone!" Qin Xiang said confidently.

The eldest prince walked up to him and said, "Tell me about it."

"Didn't the Second Prince just come back from the northwest? As long as His Highness tells the Emperor that he wants the Second Prince to come along, won't this matter be smoothly implemented? We just need to keep the plague a secret and release the news when the Second Prince takes over."

"You mean Zhu Xuan? He is only eleven this year. Father has no intention of letting him do anything. I'm afraid this matter will not be that easy."

"Indeed, it is not easy to ask the Second Prince to go, but it is easy to ask the Second Prince's grandfather, Prime Minister Fu, to go. They are just worried that Your Highness will do things earlier than the Second Prince and make the Emperor pay more attention to it. In this case, then just give them the opportunity."

The eldest prince hesitated again. "Prince Gu is a shrewd old fox. He may not be fooled. Besides, the refugees outside the city are not so easy to control. This is in the capital. Father knows everything. We still have to think about this matter carefully."

Qin Xiang also hesitated. The incident happened in the capital, under the emperor's nose. If he wanted to do something in private, it would be easy for the emperor to know.

"Your Highness, how about this? You are still young, so it is normal for you to make mistakes. How about this? Go meet the Emperor and report this matter. This plague is not something that Your Highness can control. The Emperor will definitely not blame you too much, and he may even help solve this matter. What do you think?"

The eldest prince thought about it and felt that this was a good idea. It was better to tell his father earlier than to keep it a secret. He slammed the table and said, "I will go see my father right away."

On the other side, Zhao Jing went to the palace to see the second prince, "Your Highness, Miss Jiang said that there was a plague in the refugee settlement outside the city."

The second prince said calmly, "Plague, has my brother asked someone to deal with it? Does my father know about it?"

"I have already sent someone to investigate."

Sikong Zhuxuan closed the book in his hand and said, "It's no use for you to tell me. I'm still young now, and these things will never happen to me. Go back and let grandpa and the others keep a close eye on it."

Zhao Jing was also helpless. The eldest prince was sixteen years old this year and was the child of Concubine Jia.

Although the second prince is the legitimate son, he is only eleven years old this year. He is still too young and the emperor will not entrust him with important tasks.

"Yes, Your Highness, I will take my leave."

"and many more!"

"Your Highness, please give me your instructions."

"That little girl's family also helped me keep an eye on her. She saved me twice on the way back. She's young but she's very capable."

"Yes, the house has been registered under Miss Jiang's name, and the household registration has been completed for them."

"Okay, I understand, you can go back."

"Subordinates resign!"

Jiang Qingyi felt that it was not reliable to tell Zhao Jing because the medical conditions at that time were not good enough and the residents in the city did not know how to prevent it.

Jiang Qingyi felt that she had to do something. Although she only had a little over nine taels of silver, it was enough to buy some materials for the winter.

It seems that I still need to go out for a walk.

Just as she was about to go out, Old Mrs. Jiang made another discovery in the room.

Jiang Qingyi rushed to the next room after hearing the screams. After entering, she saw Old Mrs. Jiang standing in front of the wardrobe in a daze. There were some cloths in the wardrobe.

At this time, Jiang Qingyi had to say that Zhao Jing was amazing. He had taken all aspects into consideration. She didn't know what to say.

Jiang Qingyi walked up to Old Lady Jiang and said, "Grandma, we have the cloth now. How about making some clothes for the family?"

Mrs. Jiang reacted and asked cautiously, "Xiaowu, is it really okay for us to use these things? This is the best cotton cloth, very valuable."

Jiang Qingyi didn't want to tell Old Lady Jiang about her guess about Sikong Zhuxuan's identity. She was afraid that the old lady couldn't stand the shock, so she brought up the non-existent master, "Grandma, the master said it's okay, just use it without worry."

Old Mrs. Jiang felt a little distressed when she saw all these fabrics. "These naughty boys at home wear such useless clothes. Such good fabrics are ruined after just a few days of wearing them. It's such a pity."

"Grandma, these things are meant to be used. If the old ones don't go away, the new ones will come. Besides, the clothes my brothers and sisters wear are really not presentable in this capital. At least they won't attract other people's stares when they go out. My eldest brother is thirteen this year, and he will be getting married in two years..."

Mrs. Jiang certainly didn't want to delay the marriage of her grandchildren, so even though she felt bad, she still decided to make clothes for her family. "Okay, go and have fun by yourself. You have nothing to do anyway. I'll ask your aunt to come and help."

Jiang Qingyi returned to the room, thinking about how to keep her family busy. She could support the whole family by relying on the space, but she was also very clear about the principles of "a saint's kindness will bring resentment" and "it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish". She had even seen a lot of these principles before she traveled through time.

Now that the Jiang family has no land, they can only do business if they want to live a better life. However, the family does not even have the capital to do business, which is really embarrassing.

Another thing is that she is still illiterate and doesn’t recognize the words here at all. She has to find a way to learn them.

Jiang Qingyi calculated the money in her hand and planned to go out to buy some seeds. Then she could plant more in the space. Then she would have the raw materials, right?

Thinking of this, Jiang Qingyi decided to go for a walk outside with Jiang Dahai.

Before going out, Jiang Qingyi went to see Old Man Jiang and emphasized the plague outside the city, asking him to keep his family members under control and not to go out unless necessary.

Old Man Jiang knew how serious the plague was, so he made sure no one else was allowed to go out.

Jiang Qingyi took a backpack from home and asked Jiang Dahai to carry it when she went out.

It was Jiang Dahai's first time to come to such a prosperous city. He was a little nervous about going out, fearing that something might happen.

Jiang Qingyi didn't feel anything, because she had seen a more prosperous future, and going out just felt like strolling in an ancient town. The only difference was that this place was different from the commercialized ancient town, and the atmosphere of life was more intense.

There is a 1.5-meter-wide alley leading out of the house, which should be the living area.

Jiang Qingyi didn't know where to go to buy things, and she didn't plan to walk around aimlessly, so she found a passerby and asked for directions.

The passerby looked a little disgusted when he saw the father and daughter wearing patched and thin clothes, but he still told Jiang Qingyi where she could buy things, which was in the East District.

Jiang Qingyi thanked him good-temperedly, then pulled Jiang Dahai towards the East District.
