Chasing the Queen with a Confused System

Qin Mu and Ning Qingmeng rushed all the way to Sicheng. Although the two of them also had "intimate" behaviors on the way, they did not dare to overdo it. After all, they had important business and could not delay for a moment, so they could only restrain themselves.

But Ning Qingmeng discovered a very strange thing, her sleep improved, maybe it was because she was away from the palace where all kinds of things always bothered her, maybe it was because Qin Mu was by her side, several times She slept until noon, her spirits were very good, and she had never felt more comfortable.

This time, Ning Qingmeng still dressed as a man and put on a mask to prevent any possibility of being recognized.Qin Mu was also extra careful this time, so this time she disguised herself as a man and put on a beard.

At first Qin Mu really didn't like that beard, it was much rougher than modern ones, and it felt itchy when it stuck, and sometimes he was afraid that it would fall off, so he would always touch it with his hands.Ning Qingmeng even laughed at herself because of this, saying that she always touched her beard as if she was afraid that others would not see that she was a woman disguised as a man.

The two arrived in Sicheng ten days later. Their physical fitness was different from that of ordinary people. They traveled day and night, four days faster than the original schedule.After entering Sicheng, Qin Mu and Ning Qingmeng were not in a hurry to find Karina first, but first observed the surroundings to see if any suspicious people appeared in Sicheng, so be careful.

Since the King of Yue has already said that he will not let it go, I am afraid that there are hidden stakes in the city of Si, and the two have to guard against it.However, before they could stay at the inn, there was a noise from the market, which seemed to be very lively.

"What happened?"

Qin Mu saw that everyone was looking at the same place, she and Ning Qingmeng glanced at each other, and went up to find out knowingly.Qin Mu took Ning Qingmeng's hand and squeezed away the crowd, and came to the center of the market, only to see two people kneeling on the ground tied together, and the surrounding people threw some garbage and leftovers at them, as if being attacked by the local people. The complete dislike of people.

But these two are men, and they are neatly dressed. It doesn't look like they have done anything dirty. I don't know what they have done to make everyone shout and beat like this.

"Uncle, what happened to these two?"

Qin Mu asked an uncle beside him. The uncle said angrily, "These two are spies from Pangcheng. When the city lord discovered them, the city lord tied them up. As long as they don't die, we can deal with them!"

After the uncle finished speaking, he picked up the rotten eggs in the basket and threw them over. Qin Mu couldn't help shrinking his neck, as if he was a little afraid of the uncle's aura.

Qin Mu and Ning Qingmeng glanced at each other and withdrew from the crowd. Ning Qingmeng then said, "It seems that Sicheng and Pangcheng are really at odds with each other. A small spy can make people hate him so much."

"Could it be that something happened to these spies?"

Qin Mu felt that even if Karina had a competitive relationship with the King of Yue, it would not be so indignant to humiliate the King of Yue's internal response in public. Something must have happened.Ning Qingmeng nodded, expressing agreement with Qin Mu's statement, and then Qin Mu arrested a passerby to ask, and only then did he know that a granary caught fire in Sicheng not long ago.

Just a few days ago, the largest granary in Sicheng suddenly caught fire for no reason. Fortunately, Karina paid special attention to the granary. There were many people guarding it on weekdays. Soon after the fire broke out, the guards put out the fire without much loss.It's just that Karina didn't intend to let go of this malicious act. After some investigation, Karina arrested the spies from Pangcheng and made their evil deeds public. to the reproach of the people.

According to the passer-by, these two were the No.12 and No.13 spies captured by Karina.

"It seems that Karina is determined to confront King Yue."

Such wanton punishment for the hidden pile from Pangcheng is not only to let the people vent their anger, but also a kind of provocation, as if slapping the king of Yue on the face with a slap, and it hurts very much.

"Well, that's fine, then we don't have to worry about our whereabouts being leaked."

After Ning Qingmeng finished speaking, she was relieved.Now the hidden piles in the city should be hard to protect themselves, so naturally they don't care who came to Sicheng and what they came for.

"Well, then we'll go find Karina after we've sorted it out."

Ning Qingmeng nodded in agreement, and after getting away from the hustle and bustle, the two went to the inn to stay overnight.After they had settled down, they went to the City Lord's Mansion to find Karina.What Qin Mu showed was still the token of the Phoenix Palace. When the guard saw Qin Mu's token, he immediately invited him in without passing it on.

This kind of treatment is probably only available to Qin Mu. Ning Qingmeng saw everything in his eyes and kept silent.

After entering the City Lord's Mansion, Karina was talking to the servants in the hall. After she finished speaking, the guards invited Qin Mu and Ning Qingmeng inside.

"who are you?"

Karina's tone was not kind, and she didn't recognize Qin Mu for a while, because she was wearing men's clothing and had a beard on her face, so she really couldn't recognize Qin Mu immediately.After hearing this, the guard felt a little uneasy. Could it be that he misunderstood the token?

Qin Mu smiled, removed his beard, and said, "It's me, Qin Mu."

Karina's face, which was not so good, immediately brightened up, as if after the dark clouds had been pushed away, it was so brilliant that it was impossible to look directly at it.Karina directly ignored Ning Qingmeng, rushed over to hug Qin Mu, and said with a smile, "You have no heart, you are so prosperous in the capital, I thought you were going to forget me."

Qin Mu's smile froze at the corner of his mouth, blood was flowing backwards all over his body, and he felt cold for a while...

Grandma, I'm afraid I will be carried away by black people with your hug and this sentence.Her line of sight was blocked by Karina, and she couldn't see Ning Qingmeng's expression, but she knew it would definitely not look good.Qin Mu's body stiffened, and he didn't dare to move, for fear that Ning Qingmeng would show those murderous eyes.

"I, am I busy?"

Qin Mu's cold sweat flowed down from the corner of his forehead. The weather was still cool, and this drop of sweat really seemed particularly abrupt.After Karina let go of him, those beautiful blue eyes fell on Qin Mu, and after looking at him a few times, she said distressedly: "Qin Mu, you've lost weight again."

"Ahem, yes, busy."

Ning Qingmeng's eyes fell on Qin Mu, she was silent, but her eyes looked up and down, as if she was confirming something.

At this time, Karina saw a tall man beside Qin Mu, dressed in men's clothing, with his face exposed, revealing the part below the nose, it can be seen that he is a very beautiful person, for a man, this outline is too soft and slender .

Her figure was a bit slimmer than Qin Mu's, and she couldn't see her expression when she wore a mask, but when she stood there, she felt awe-inspiring, which made people dare not make mistakes, an extraordinary aura that ordinary people could have.

"Who is this?"

Karina knew that this wasn't Song Qi. Judging from her momentum and temperament, her status was much higher than Song Qi's.Although she was dressed as a man, Karina guessed from her figure and face outline whether she was a woman.

"Qin Mu is an official under my command, and my surname is Jin."

It was Jin again, hearing this surname, Qin Mu blushed unconsciously, remembering Ning Qingmeng's explanation of this surname at that time.

I want to conclude a good relationship between Qin and Jin with you.

"So it's Mr. Jin, please sit down."

Karina called the two to sit down, but she didn't notice the coldness in Ning Qingmeng's eyes. Qin Mu was the only one shivering in the audience.Karina knew that Qin Mu's trip must not be easy, since all the officials who are higher than her are here, there must be something important.

She ordered pastries and hot tea to be prepared, and was going to discuss the purpose of their trip with the two in detail.

After the three of them sat down, Qin Mu carefully glanced at Ning Qingmeng, but found that she was not looking at him and had no emotion, which made Qin Mu even more frightened.

Like the calm before the storm.

"City Master Karina, to be honest, I came to Si City secretly this time, and I actually need your help with something."

Ning Qingmeng's tone was respectful, but Qin Mu never thought that Ning Qingmeng could talk to another person in such a condescending manner, which was an eye-opener for her.

"Master Jin, please tell me."

Although Karina is usually informal and hospitable, but if she wants to talk about serious matters, she will never be procrastinating and vague, such as now.

"The king of Yue wants to get a new way of making money, and Huacheng is his best choice."

Hearing this, Karina's brows were tightly frowned, her expression was gloomy, but she suppressed her temper and didn't attack immediately.She is the food supplier of Huacheng, if King Yue reaches out to Huacheng, it means that he wants to take revenge.

"King Yue has our internal support. In order to make King Yue trust her, we plan to let Huacheng and Karina play a play."

This sentence was said by Qin Mu. Seeing Karina's expression was unkind, she immediately took over the conversation, trying to calm Karina's mood.

"What play?"

Hearing Qin Mu speak, Karina still suppressed her temper, her tone was soft, but her face was still not very good-looking.

"Pretending to break the relationship with the Lord of Huacheng, so that the King of Yue can take advantage of it, then we should gain the trust of the King of Yue."

Ning Qingmeng just finished speaking, and when Karina was about to explode, Ning Qingmeng continued: "Your loss, the court can bear it. Of course, you don't have to really lose."

As soon as these words came out, Karina endured the urge to slap the table. The person in front of her was not an ordinary official. Her aura made her fearful, so she should listen to the words patiently.

"How to say?"

Karina took a sip of her tea and suppressed the anger that had rushed to her throat. She didn't want to have a conflict with Qin Mu, let alone the mysterious person in front of her.

"You pretend to have a falling out with the owner of Huacheng, and then let the owner of Huacheng purchase food from the King of Yue. On the surface, your cooperation has terminated, but in fact you still maintain a close cooperation. As for the expenses of the owner of Huacheng, there is no need for Karin City Lord Na is worried."

After listening to Karina, she felt that she hadn't suffered any loss in the whole incident, but that the court had sent great efforts to the King of Yue.Is it really worth it for the guilt to be trusted?

"The king of Yue is a person who doesn't know how to be satisfied. If he opens his mouth like a lion, your empress will still accept it?"

This is not something that can be solved with tens of thousands of taels of silver, but a matter of several 10 taels or even millions of taels of silver. Will the current empress agree to such a loss-making business?

"In this regard, Lord Karina doesn't have to worry about it."

Ning Qingmeng smiled lightly, as if she didn't take this matter seriously, which made Karina wonder, what is the relationship between this person and the Empress, and how could she still make a complete decision on such an important matter?

"May I ask Lord Jin, what is your position in the court?"

Not knowing the details of the other party, Karina dared not cooperate lightly, and it was obvious that this person surnamed Jin led this time, and Qin Mu was just here as a foil.
