Chapter 157: That Person Is a Good Match for Her

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Godmother, I…”

“Don’t worry. That’s just Hezhi’s luck. In any case, when the war is over, we don’t have to care about what the Emperor thinks. You don’t have to bear such a huge responsibility. The King of Xinan’s Residence can still afford to protect you,” Jiang Ru said. Her voice turned cold at the mention of the Emperor. She continued to say solemnly, “When that time comes, I’ll find you a good husband. We can all rest assured if there’s someone to look after you and Junjin..

“Godmother, I don’t need..

“Are you going to say you don’t need anyone to look after you? However, Junjin is still a child. He longs for fatherly love. Forget about Feng Yili. He’s definitely not a good match for vou! Godmother will help you find a new husband!”

Yu Yunxi saw the determination in Jiang Rut s eyes and knew she could not convince Jiang Ru otherwise. As such, she only remained silent.

Finally, Jiang Ru said softly, “Rest early. I won’t disturb you anymore.”

“Alright, Godmother. You should rest early too,” Yu Yunxi replied with a nod.

Jiang Ru and the others were Yu Yunxi’s strongest supporters. Ever since her mother died, very few elders treated her so well.

Ironically, Jiang Rut s name was very similar to that of her father’s wife, Madam Chen.

‘Chen Ru… Ha, now that I left the capital, they must be having a good time…’

After walking out of the courtyard, the maidservant behind Jiang Ru could not help but say, “My Lady, the County Princess is so outstanding. How can any man be worthy of her?”

‘Indeed… Yunxi is so outstanding, and Junjin is so cute. How can any man be worthy of them?’

“If it were not for Hezhi’s…

Jiang Ru sighed. How could she not understand her son’s thoughts? If it were not for his poor health, he would definitely stay by Yu Yunxi and Yu Junjin’s side.

Jiang Ru shook her head. With tears in her eyes, she murmured, “It’s all my fault. I didn’t give him a healthy body…”

“My Lady, don’t blame yourself. It’s not your fault,” Aunt Jian, the servant, quickly comforted Jiang Ru.

Jiang Ru let out a long sigh. “Hezhi probably wanted to find someone to take care of Yunxi so he rushed to the capital. I really didn’t expect Feng Yili to be such a bad person. As expected, the members of the Feng family are each more ruthless than the other. No one can blame our King of Xinan’s Residence for cutting ties with them…”

Jiang Rut s usually kind eyes shone with hatred and anger at this moment.

Aunt Jian thought about it for a moment before she said tentatively, “My Lady, if that person ascends the throne in the future, perhaps he’ll be a good match for the County Princess…”

Jiang Ru looked enlightened upon hearing these words. She nodded firmly as she said, “That’s right! Why didn’t I think of this? He’ll indeed be a good match for Yunxi! When this matter with Nanyue is over, I’ll definitely speak to my husband about this!”

“County Princess, the people from the Murong family are here,” Qian Jiao reported.

“Alright, let’s go welcome them.”

Yu Yunxi quickly left. She mounted her horse and led people to the city gate.

At this time, the city gate was open, and the people from the Murong family were coming into the city with dozens of carriages in tow.

“Although Murong Ze can be quite frivolous sometimes, I knew he won’t disappoint us at the critical moment,” Yu Yunxi murmured, heaving a sigh of relief before she dismounted.

At this moment, a bearded man, who looked to be in his forties or fifties, stepped forward. He said respectfully, “Greetings, County Princess.”

“Uncle Shan, we’re not strangers. Why are you being so polite?” Yu Yunxi asked with a smile.

Murong Shan laughed. “Although we’re not strangers, we still have to follow the rules.”

Then, Murong Shan lowered his voice before he continued to say, “County Princess, when Eldest Young Master received your letter, he immediately ordered people to gather these rations… and weapons…”

Yu Yunxi’s eyes flashed.

‘As expected, Murong Ze didn’t let me down.’

“Where’s your Eldest Young Master?” Yu Yunxi asked.

“Eldest Young Master still has matters to attend to so he can’t come. However, he’ll come to Xinan when he can. He has instructed us to help Xinan to the best of our abilities. If you need anything, just let me know. You have the loyalty of our Murong family,” Murong Shan said seriously.

Yu Yunxi sighed. These words carried too much weight after all. She said helplessly, “If it weren’t necessary, I wouldn’t have wanted to involve all of you..

Since ancient times, merchants had kept away from matters of the imperial court. The Murong family’s help this time would likely become a thorn in the side of the imperial court and the imperial family in the future.

However, Murong Shan was fearless. He scoffed and said calmly, “Don’t worry, County Princess. Our Murong family won’t be defeated so easily…”

Yu Yunxi finally relaxed a little upon hearing these words.

Murong Shan continued to say, “By the way, County Princess, I wonder if you’re lacking soldiers? The hundred or so people behind me are all experts of the Murong family.”

‘Experts?’

Indeed, Xinan lacked people. The imperial court was unwilling to help them.

Although there were only a hundred or so people, the experts from the Murong family were naturally not weak.

Yu Yunxi was not pretentious. She quickly nodded and said, “I’ll have to thank your Eldest Young Master for his generous help!”

After that, Yu Yunxi’s tone changed as she continued to say, “Uncle Shan, I wonder if you have a list of names of these people? I’ll check it before placing them in the army…”

Murong Shan naturally understood Yu Yunxi’s meaning. The journey was long, and there was no guarantee that someone did not sneak in among them. He hurriedly nodded and replied, “I have a list in hand. They know each other as well… I’ll get someone to check them carefully later…”

“Thank you. I’m so sorry to trouble you…”

Yu Yunxi was busy with various matters so she did not have time to chat for long with Murong Shan. After she gave Qian Jiao a few instructions, she prepared to mount her horse and go to the military camp. However, she suddenly felt an intense gaze on her. She frowned and looked around. However, she did not find anything unusual.

‘Is it because I’ve been too nervous recently so I became a little paranoid?’

Yu Yunxi suppressed her emotions and no longer paid attention to this matter. She quickly made her way to the military camp.

“County Princess.”

When the soldiers saw Yu Yunxi, they bowed immediately.

“Where’s His Highness, the King of Xinan?”

“In the commander’s tent.”

Yu Yunxi asked someone to bring Chasing Wind to the side so it could graze on the field before she quickly walked into a tent. Before she entered, she could already hear a heated argument inside. As soon as she walked in, everyone stopped talking.

Several generals sat on the side, their faces red from arguing.

“What happened?” Yu Yunxi asked.

“County Princess, it’s all because you recklessly injured Nanyue’s Gao Feng that day. Their Crown Prince is furious, and now, their troops are stationed less than a mile away from us. With the enemies closing in, we can’t sleep at night,” a general said in a strange tone.

Yu Yunxi looked over and recognized the other party immediately.

The other party’s name was Ying Jianyuan. He had been with Shen Si, the King of Xinan, for many years and had once saved Shen Sit s life. He was an old general.

However, Ying Jianyuan was arrogant and narrow-minded. When he led the army with Yu Yunxi, he was dissatisfied with her, and he made no effort to hide his thoughts that it was inappropriate for a woman to lead the troops..
