Hunting system, and I ended up becoming the empress!

"Heiwu County is very small. I have been observing for a few days. The county magistrate might be one of their people. Unfortunately, I haven't found anyone with the surname Luo. I will continue to stake out."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

The news from Qi Danhe was that it was confirmed that the other party was transporting the ore through the escort company of An Ziji's wife's half-brother.

Unfortunately, the other party doesn’t know any more information about the man in gray.

Xiao Zhixing can be sure that the gray-clothed man of the Heavenly Rank has no subsystem, so the key one is still the one with the surname Luo.

"Your Highness..." Xiao Zhixing came back to his senses after hearing Zhao Xianyin's voice.

When she looked up, everyone was looking at the book in her hand, and then at Nian Chenghan, the latter who had his head lowered, and the tips of his ears were indeed red.

Xiao Zhixing looked puzzled. What happened?

Li Wenxiu covered her mouth and laughed, "It's okay, it's okay. Sister Xianyin is asking, should we go to Fuyuan Building to get together at noon?"

Xiao Zhixing closed the book in his hand and said, "Okay."

We are all classmates, so it’s nice to have a meal and communicate with each other.

She went to put the book away. Well, she finally understood why they were so weird. It turned out that the book in her hand was the one that Nian Chenghan had just read.

Well, as long as you don’t take it seriously, then it won’t happen.

He calmly turned back and continued to flip through his own pages. The room gradually became quiet, with only the sound of shuffling papers remaining.

It was noon, the group of people had girls in front and boys in the back. No one took the carriage but chose to travel on horseback. Nian Chenghan and Zhao Lin were accompanied by followers.

There were many servants following behind, a huge crowd, very eye-catching.

By the time they arrived at Fuyuan Building in the West District, I guess half of Shengjing City knew that they were having a dinner together on the first day of school.

"Oh, Prince Yuansheng, all the nobles, please come in!" The shopkeeper came out personally and bowed, and immediately suggested, "Box No. 1 can accommodate 30 people, and the location is good. You can enjoy the scenery and the wind."

Xiao Zhixing led the way and nodded, "Boss, please take care of the arrangements. We will just enjoy our meal casually."

The shopkeeper smiled brightly, "Yes, yes, then I will take care of the arrangements?"

But he didn't dare to act recklessly. He couldn't afford to offend any of these people. Among them was the eldest prince. Half of Shengjing City would be shaken if they did so.

They went up to the Tianzi private room on the third floor. The room was indeed large, with a long table and elegant decoration. There was an ear room next to it where one could sit down and have a cup of tea. It had the feel of a modern high-end restaurant.

Huo Baijun chuckled, "Boss, you have such a good piece of land, but you have been hiding it all this time?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "No, no, this room was just cleaned up two days ago. It just so happens that you are the first to come. It also makes my humble room shine with honor and good luck."

Xiao Zhixing found a seat and sat down, motioning for everyone to sit down as well, "Alright, hurry up and serve the food, we still have school to go to in the afternoon."

She seldom attends banquets and social events, always feeling that it is a waste of time. She has rejected invitations sent to her. This is her first time to attend an event.

Huo Baijun asked the shopkeeper to serve wine and food.

The wine arrived. Xiao Zhixing glanced at the people who were still serious and expressionless, and couldn't help but smile and said, "What a rare fate. Come, let's have a drink together."

Pour the wine and raise the glass, waiting for their reaction.

Several of her close friends and the girls responded immediately, followed by several others. Everyone focused their attention on Li Jun, Zhang Zhong and Zhao Lin.

Li Jun lowered his eyes and paused, then held the cup and raised it with a faint smile, "It is indeed fate."

Zhang Zhong hesitated for a moment, and finally raised his glass silently.

Zhao Lin seemed to shrink back a bit, and meeting Xiao Zhixing's calm eyes, he raised his glass with both hands, "Cheers."

Xiao Zhixing smiled and said, "Very good, come on, let's do it."

Everyone drank the wine with different thoughts. Huo Baijun livened up the atmosphere and invited everyone to taste the food. The air seemed to become refreshing instantly.

After three rounds of drinks, everyone gathered in groups to go to the side room to drink tea, appreciate paintings and calligraphy.

Xiao Zhixing sat by the window and looked at the scenery. The terrain here was high, and he could enjoy the endless water reflection on the Luo River.

All the things that happened after she came here flashed through her mind, but her nerves were still tense. The goal was far away and she still needed to move forward.

No one else disturbed her, but some words from the second floor could be vaguely heard.

"Alas, the Qixi Festival is coming soon, and the official media are also very active. Brother, have you talked about a good marriage?"

"I am preparing for the Spring Examination, and will discuss marriage when I pass it."

"Hey, brother, you are more clear-headed. Only when you pass the imperial examination can you find a noble lady. With your talent, if someone chooses you as a son-in-law, wouldn't it be wonderful?"

"Hahaha, I dare not, Dasheng has talented people like carp, and I am nothing."

"Hey, speaking of this, I heard rumors that the King Zhenguo Palace wants to find a son-in-law for...that person?" another person suddenly interrupted.

"Hmm? Where did you get this rumor, brother? Don't talk nonsense about that person."

"I also heard someone say that she has reached the age of marriage and can discuss marriage, but because of her prominent family background, she cannot marry outside the family and cannot find a son-in-law."

The other students who were eavesdropping nearby realized who he was talking about and couldn't help but prick up their ears and lean over to listen to what was going on.

The man was proud, "Am I right? If she marries down, who would dare to marry her? This is the only way to find a son-in-law. She can't just stay single and be an old aunt for the rest of her life, right?"

"But with her status, ordinary people can't recruit her. Doesn't she have to choose from the children of the rich and powerful?"

"But I think she won't choose the sons of the rich and powerful. The more ordinary the person, the easier it is to control. People with simple family backgrounds and a little talent are the best candidates."

"That's right. She holds the elite of Dasheng in her hands. Choosing the children of the rich and powerful may be a hidden danger. Ordinary talents are the safest choice."

The more they talked, the more excited they became. They didn't say any names, but everyone knew who they were talking about.

"So, all the talented men, do you want to be the son-in-law?" someone joked.

"Go, how can a scholar like me be a son-in-law who is shameful?"

"Hahaha, looking at you like this, I'm afraid you're moved."

Someone else said, "I heard that the Feng family is arranging marriages for the two young masters. What a pity for Prince Feng. I heard that because his injuries are getting worse, it's hard to marry a noble lady from a high-class family, so he can only look for a lower-class lady, and the one he found is the daughter of a minor official."

"How do you know so much?"

"Hey, because the girl's house is next door to mine, it's been very lively these past two days."

"Where's the other one? I haven't seen him go out since he was taught a lesson last time."

"Reclaiming that reputation will only make it more difficult to find a girl from a good family than conferring the title of prince."

Everyone agreed.

Another person suddenly said, "No, no, you are all wrong. I heard that his marriage is better than that of Prince Feng, and the woman seems to be the county lady of Marquis Ping's family."

"Hiss, no way?" Everyone was surprised.

Someone couldn't help but whisper, "What do you think? Could it be true that the rumor about the Feng family's legitimate and illegitimate children being swapped was true?"

Everyone suddenly realized, as if they had discovered some big secret, and decided to go back and tell their friends and classmates about this guess.

Upstairs, Xiao Zhixing touched his chin and frowned. There were rumors about him finding a son-in-law?

Who passed it on?

Find out if she didn't beat him to death.

And Feng Hui went to Pinghou Mansion to propose marriage. When did these two parties get in touch?

"Your Highness, it's time to go back to the courtyard." Lin Rusu reminded her.

They also vaguely heard the following words, but no one dared to ask, especially when she frowned, they felt the majestic and oppressive feeling as if they were seeing their own grandfather (father).

As expected, he is worthy of being Prince Yuansheng who returned from the battlefield.

Looking at the eldest prince Zhao Lin, there is a world of difference between them.

Xiao Zhixing came to his senses and stood up, going downstairs with them. Bai Mei had quietly left and went to the second floor to check on those people.

She thought it was just a rumor, but she didn't expect that it would spread all over Shengjing City in one afternoon, and it was spread so seriously that it seemed as if she was really going to find a son-in-law.

Bai Mei reported back to her, "I checked and the news came from a certain painting studio. Ying Er went there and found that the studio had been burned down in a river bend."

Xiao Zhixing wondered, which side could he be from?
