If the business woman does not help the poor, the villain's dream of prosperity will be shatter

Qin Shu didn't know what Zhang Cheng wanted to do. Since Zhang Cheng didn't speak, she naturally wouldn't speak first.

Zhang Cheng bent his waist slightly, and Qin An Ning immediately brought a brocade stool and placed it behind Zhang Cheng.

Zhang Cheng's waist slowly sank and he just sat on the brocade stool.

Then he waved his hand gently.

The guards and maids in the room bowed silently and retreated quietly.

Without even turning his head, Zhang Cheng ordered sharply, "You go down too."

Qin An Ning glared at Qin Shu with great resentment and unwillingness, then responded with a low "yes", took a few steps back, and turned to leave.

Zhang Cheng lowered his voice softly, with a hint of sincerity, "The girl is a smart person, she has means and schemes, which is really rare."

"His Royal Highness Prince Ning has heard about what happened before. His Royal Highness has developed a love for the young lady, so he asked our family to come here specially to invite the young lady to visit his house."

It's really ridiculous to describe kidnapping and hostage-taking in such a refreshing and refined way.

Qin Shu couldn't help but sneer.

Regardless of whether Qin Shu knew the truth about her parents' murder, the fact that Zhang Cheng allowed Qin An Ning to appear beside him openly proved that Zhang Cheng had no intention of using deception or appeasement against Qin Shu.

Zhang Cheng didn't care about Qin Shu's hostility. After all, she was just a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who was powerless.

Even if he had some tricks and schemes, he was no match for an old man like him who had been immersed in officialdom and harem struggles for many years.

Zhang Cheng sighed softly, his tone was compassionate, but there was no softness in his words, "You are a little girl, all alone, with such a beautiful appearance and smart personality. I heard that you are following your father's wishes and trying to grow new crops?"

"Look, what a good girl, smart and filial. But this world is full of evil spirits and evil beasts. No matter fame, wealth or glory, living is for yourself."

"If one day I accidentally lose my life, wouldn't those things become ownerless? Whoever gets them will own them."

Qin Shu's lips curled slightly, and she looked at Zhang Cheng sarcastically, "I tried to grow new crops, and the whole Jinzhou City knew about it. When the new crops were just planted, I was kidnapped in my own home. The robbers were not after money or sex, so you can guess what they were after."

"Whoever takes the new grain to seek credit is the murderer. These should not be difficult to guess, right?"

Zhang Cheng raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "She is just an orphan girl from a lowly merchant family. So what if she dies?"

"I am a humble girl, but I tried to grow new crops to fulfill my father's wish, and was praised by the world for my filial piety. The current emperor governs the world with benevolence and filial piety. If the court officials and scholars knew that I was killed..."

Qin Shu couldn't help but chuckle, "I'm afraid that His Royal Highness Prince Ning won't be able to withstand the criticism from the people of the world. Who will be the unlucky scapegoat then?"

Zhang Cheng was silent for a short time, then he chuckled, "The girl is really eloquent and good at speaking. I saw that you were so young, but you insisted on pretending to be an adult, hoping to scare the girl. Unexpectedly, the girl took it seriously."

Qin Shu also laughed, "I also think that His Royal Highness Prince Ning is wise, courageous and virtuous, and would never do such a mean thing."

Zhang Cheng's face, which looked like a steamed bun, suddenly sank, but he quickly broke into a big fake smile and said, "Young lady, you are so beautiful and charming. Even compared with the ladies in the harem, you are not inferior."

"I feel that I have a good relationship with the girl, and I am willing to advise His Royal Highness Prince Ning and help her become rich and powerful."

"It has been a few years since the palace has had any newcomers. If someone as talented and pretty as you were to enter the palace, it would be no surprise that you would be favored by the emperor and rise to prominence in the near future."

Qin Shu couldn't help but shudder.

Not to mention that there is a rule in this dynasty that if the emperor dies and his concubines have no children, they must be buried alive with him.

It is said that Prince Ning really sent her into the palace. As the emperor's concubine, the crops that Qin Shu tried to grow naturally belonged to the emperor in the eyes of the world.

No matter whether it is the Prince of Jin, the Prince of Ning or the Prince of Liang, who dares to get involved?

As the Prince of Ning who presented the daughter of the Qin family to the palace, the Emperor would definitely remember him as a great contributor.

This is the real purpose of Prince Ning having her brought to the capital!

Qin Shu wanted to join forces with King Jin by trying to grow new crops, but King Ning simply cut off the source of the problem.

After all, Prince Ning's tactics were more sophisticated.

Zhang Cheng looked at Qin Shu's pale face with satisfaction, stood up slowly, flicked his collar and said, "It's getting late, young lady, go to bed early. We won't disturb you anymore."

Without waiting for Qin Shu to speak, Zhang Cheng said, "If the girl is worried about safety when she is alone in a room, there is no need to worry about it."

After saying that, he called out, "Someone come!"

There was clearly no one else in the room, but in the blink of an eye, eight men in black appeared out of thin air, knelt down around Zhang Cheng, and bowed to him, "General, the Gatekeeper."

Zhang Cheng smiled and approached Qin Shu, and said softly word by word: "Each of these people is a master who can fight one against a hundred. With them guarding here, protecting the girl at all times, they are impenetrable and water cannot penetrate."

He raised his hand proudly and nodded at Qin Shu in the air, "Have a good rest."

When you're done, turn around and leave.

Qin Shu heard Zhang Cheng's voice, as he ordered the maids, "You guys, serve well. If you don't serve well and make the girl unhappy, you'll have to watch out for it!"

The maids outside the door responded in unison with trepidation.

The door was opened again, and six maids walked in one after another, two by two.

The man in black on the ground disappeared before the maid entered.

Two maids stood at the door, and two servants guarded the compartment.

The remaining two maids stood at the end of the couch.

With lowered eyebrows and eyes, he was silent and motionless, like an invisible person.

Qin Shu moved slightly, and the two maids at the end of the couch immediately came over and asked, "What do you want, young lady?"

"I'm going to the consecration room."

As soon as Qin Shu got off the bed, her legs went weak and she almost fell down.

Two maids supported her on both sides and led her to the cabin.

Even when Qin Shu was using the toilet, he stood beside it like a pole, afraid that she would disappear in the blink of an eye.

Back on the couch, Qin Shu closed her eyes and sighed softly: These men in black should be around her.

But she could neither feel nor see their presence at all.

I heard from my brother that the real masters can determine the position by listening to the sound.

People with profound internal strength can feel the subtle changes in the surrounding aura with their eyes closed.

Her invisibility talisman could only hide her shape, but not her breath.

Trying to escape from these people's surveillance is harder than climbing to the sky!

She could use the space to hide.

However, once you hide in the space, you cannot move.

Could it be possible that she had been hiding in the space forever?

Even if she wanted to, the time she could stay in the space was limited. When the time was up, she would be automatically ejected from the space.

By then, if she fails to escape safely and the secret of the space is exposed, it will be really over!
