Heartstrings Resonance: The Beloved Princess of the Female Power

Chapter 137 Mu Yunxi Standing on the City Wall

, staring at the dark sea. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, bringing with it a strange smell. She frowned slightly, and a bad premonition came to her heart. At this moment, a soldier hurried over and reported: "Sir, we have found traces of the enemy!"

Mu Yunxi raised her hand to stop him from continuing. He had already seen a dark mass of ships on the sea heading towards Qingxue City. Her heart sank. As she had expected, the enemy had a backup plan. She immediately gave the order: "Prepare for battle! We must not let them break through the city gates!"

However, the group of figures stopped three miles out to sea. Although it was night and it was difficult to see how many people there were, Mu Yunxi was filled with horror at the sight of the large and small ships. At this time, Zhao Ming and the other deputy generals also rushed over and were quite shocked by the scene.

"Are they all here?" murmured a deputy general.

No one responded to his words, but instead looked at a small boat that was rowing over from the opposite direction. After the boat landed, the soldiers brought the people to Mu Yunxi and the others.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Ming asked directly.

The visitor, who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, spoke in half-fluent Zhao dialect, "I heard you accepted your former enemies. Can you accept us?"

"Hmph! You wish..." a deputy general named Liu said angrily.

Mu Yunxi found this man familiar, so she asked, "Who is Xie Sichen to you?"

The boy thought for a moment and replied, "Who are you talking about? I don't know him!" Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Mu Yunxi temporarily withdrew her guess and waited for Zhao Ming to continue questioning.

"Were you sent to negotiate with us?" Zhao Ming asked with narrowed eyes.

The boy nodded and said, "We didn't want to do this, but our home was destroyed by the flood, so we had to find a new place to live."

"So you have been targeting Zhao State many years ago?" Zhao Ming's voice was a little cold.

"We have no ill intentions, but you built the city wall here, and we thought you were guarding against us and afraid that we would enter Zhao State, so you did this." The boy looked sincere.

"Did the people in your clan tell you to say that?" Mu Yunxi asked.

The boy was stunned for a moment before saying, "That's the truth!"

"Oh? Really? Didn't they tell you...what your people did on our land? As for being on guard against you? That's nonsense. Our people don't even know you exist, and they have reason to be on guard against you." Mu Yunxi said in a flat voice and leisurely tone.

"Then why are you suddenly building a city wall here?" the boy asked unconvinced.

Jin Yubin was very unhappy with the boy's tone and said, "This is my Zhaoguo territory. We can build whatever we want. It's none of your business."

The boy scratched his head and said, "What you said makes sense." Then he turned around and looked at his people on the sea.

Seeing how clueless this kid was, everyone understood what these people meant. Just now, Lieutenant General Liu shouted towards the sea, "You guys sent this clueless kid out to negotiate? Don't you have anyone else? How shameless!"

Seeing that this boy looked too much like Xie Sichen, he asked, "What's your name? How old are you? Do you have any brothers?"

The boy was quite naive. Seeing Mu Yunxi's kind face, everyone no longer had any ill will towards him, so he replied honestly, "My name is Luo Sen, I'm fifteen, and I have a brother!"

"Oh? What about your brother? Where are the rest of your family?" Mu Yunxi asked with her head tilted.

Rosen shook his head. "I only have my brother, and I don't know where he is! But the elders said that as long as I come, I will be able to see my brother."

Mu Yunxi and the others looked at each other and realized that Rosen was being used by the other side to test them. They wanted to know whether they would kill people at will?

"I might know your brother, I can take you to find him..." Mu Yunxi said to Rosen.

Rosen immediately looked at Mu Yunxi with shining eyes, his face full of joy that he couldn't hide, but this kid also couldn't hide it either.

Mu Yunxi nodded, "But you have to tell me how many of you there are, who taught you the Zhao language, and what is your purpose?"

Mu Yunxi asked a series of questions that left Luo Sen stunned. He scratched his head helplessly, "I can't count, so I don't know how many people there are. What I'm saying now was taught to me by my brother. My purpose... is to find a place to live."

"Have all the people from your hometown come?" Mu Yunxi asked in a different way.

This time, Rosen nodded heavily and said with certainty: "Yes! They are all out! They have lost their home..." When he said "they have lost their home", it was heard that his mood suddenly became depressed.

After hearing Mu Yunxi's questions, Jin Yubin guessed what Mu Yunxi meant. He stepped forward, patted Rosen on the shoulder, and comforted him, "Don't be sad, we will take you to find your brother." Rosen looked up, his eyes full of gratitude.

Mu Yunxi turned and said to the people behind her, "Tell them to prepare some food and shelter and settle him down." Then, she looked at Rosen and said, "You follow him!"

Rosen nodded timidly and followed the person Mu Yunxi had instructed. After they had gone far away, Zhao Ming asked, "Do you think this silly boy is Xie Sichen's younger brother?"

Mu Yunxi looked at the receding figure and said, "He's not stupid!"

"You said he was pretending!" Mu Yunxi didn't reply, but said, "Keep your eyes on him and see what he does!"

Listening to their conversation, Jin Yubin came forward and said, "I was wondering why you are so kind all of a sudden?"

"Send someone back to Beijing and deliberately reveal Rosen's name and age to Xie Sichen to see how he reacts!" Mu Yunxi said to Jin Yubin.

Jin Yubin nodded and asked his men to do it. Then he complained to Mu Yunxi, "You should ask His Majesty to send some people! He always sends my people."

"I don't like people following me! Also, if you don't want to, I think General Zhao's men are willing to do it." Mu Yunxi said lightly.

Jin Yubin choked and looked at Zhao Ming who was watching the show on the side. Zhao Ming nodded: "It's a great achievement to catch the spy!"

Jin Yubin didn't want to talk about this topic anymore. Looking at the huge crowd on the sea, he asked impatiently, "Are we going to fight or not?"

"No fight!" Mu Yunxi replied.

"So what does this mean?" Kim Woo Bin pointed to the large area on the sea.

"We want to attack from both sides, and they want it too!" Mu Yunxi said, saluted Zhao Ming, turned around and left.

Jin Yubin didn't follow, but looked at the sea and muttered, "Why don't you come closer, or I'll give them a shot."

Zhao Ming was speechless. He walked away and told the soldiers to take turns resting. He also closed his eyes and rested in the corner. Someone was already watching Rosen, so he was not worried.
