Heartstrings Resonance: The Beloved Princess of the Female Power

I explained to her, "Actually, the principles are the same, but we care more about the opinions of the people. We pursue democracy and freedom, and everyone has an equal right to participate in political decision-making. Moreover, if our leader makes a mistake, he will be removed from office. Even if he issues an edict of repentance, he will be deprived of his political rights for life. This is our mechanism to check power, to ensure that leaders do not abuse their power. Unlike here, the emperor is supreme and people are often asked to kneel. In addition, we don't sell children because this kind of human trafficking is illegal. We value the protection of human rights, and everyone should enjoy dignity and freedom."

After hearing this, Yongle was filled with envy. She couldn't help but sigh, "Your country is truly an ideal one!" She began to develop a strong interest in this strange world and wanted to learn more about it.

"I'm increasingly curious about your hometown," Yongle said longingly. "What kind of place is that? Could it have given you such profound knowledge and such a broad perspective?" She imagined that distant land, filled with mystery and charm. Perhaps it held towering mountains, vast grasslands, azure lakes like gemstones, or perhaps a bustling city filled with all sorts of novelties and cultures.

There was a glimmer of anticipation in Yongle's eyes. She longed to see that magical place with her own eyes one day, communicate with the people there and learn from their wisdom.

"You still have a lot to do. Now just take good care of your injuries and wait for your cousin to come. Have him report to the emperor what might happen." Mu Yunxi appropriately changed the subject.

"Yes, you're right," Princess Yongle nodded. Thinking of some things from her past life, she sighed unconsciously. She knew that her parents had protected her too well, and she only had a partial understanding of many things. If it weren't for Mu Yunxi's previous reminders and analysis, she would never have thought, or rather, dared not think, that the Zhao Kingdom might have hidden so many spies.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and Mu Yunxi couldn't help but sigh: "The life of the rich in ancient times was really comfortable!" During these days, she chatted, played chess, and played the piano with Princess Yongle, and her life was relaxing and happy.

After they had breakfast together, Yongle said, "Aunt Xiao, I want to borrow someone from you." After a few days of getting along, the relationship between the three became closer, and Yongle naturally called Xiao Yao aunt.

Xiao Yao smiled and replied, "It's not about lending or not. Just tell me, who do you want?"

Yongle continued, "I'd like to ask Manager Sun to go to the south gate of Ping County and wait for someone. That person is my cousin, General Jin. I hope he can come to the Qin family in civilian attire, because I have something to discuss with him."

Xiao Yao nodded in understanding, but still asked, "Do you have any token to prove your identity? Otherwise, General Jin might not believe what Steward Sun says."

Yongle shook her head helplessly: "No, I have lost all the items that can prove my identity. But... as long as there is news about me, whether it is true or false, my cousin will come to confirm it. Manager Sun just needs to tell the truth." Her tone was very firm, and she was obviously full of confidence in this plan.

Xiao Yao nodded in agreement and turned to Mother Wu, "Go call Steward Sun."

Mother Wu replied "yes" and turned to leave the room.

after awhile……

Mother Wu brought Manager Sun into the house.

Steward Sun bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Madam."

"Well, go and do something." Xiao Yao looked at Manager Sun and said. Manager Sun bowed slightly and replied respectfully, "Yes, please give me your orders, Miss."

Xiao Yao slowly recounted the details of the matter he needed to handle. Steward Sun's face flickered with surprise, but he quickly regained his composure. He pondered to himself that while he had long suspected Miss Luo Ran's identity might be extraordinary, he had never imagined she was the eldest princess.

You know, only a few people know Luo Ran's true identity. Mother Wu was equally shocked when she heard the news. It wasn't that someone had deliberately told her, but rather that several of her masters hadn't avoided her in recent conversations. This shows how much they trust Mother Wu.

When Manager Sun left, Xiao Yao specifically asked him to bring Xiao Chuan and Xiao He along. She then instructed Madam Wu to go to Madam Liu to convey the situation, saying that other guests might come to disturb her and asking for her understanding.

When Madam Wu explained her purpose to Liu, she readily agreed. However, she still felt a little uneasy, so she decided to go in person to inquire about Xiao Yao's situation. When she arrived at the courtyard, she saw Mu Yunxi and Yongle sitting there playing chess. She quickly bowed to Yongle and explained that she was there to see Xiao Yao. Initially, she intended to kneel, but Yongle stopped her and told her to be more casual.

Sunlight streamed in through the window lattice, illuminating Xiao Yao, making her appear even more gentle and charming. At this moment, she was leisurely savoring the fragrant tea in her hand, her eyes fixed on the two beautiful girls playing chess outside the window, a faint smile on her face.

At this moment, Liu entered the room. Xiao Yao smiled, invited her to sit down, and personally filled a cup of hot tea for her. The two sat opposite each other, enjoying this quiet moment together.

Liu took a sip from her teacup, then quietly gazed at the beautiful scenery outside the window, seemingly mesmerized. Xiao Yao noticed her expression and asked curiously, "Sister, are you here today to discuss something important?" She had just asked Mother Wu to inform Liu, and Liu rushed over. But at this moment, Liu was so focused on admiring the "beautiful scenery" outside the window that she seemed to have forgotten everything else.

Xiao Yao reminded softly, "Come back to your senses." Liu turned around as if waking up from a dream, showing a hint of apology.

Xiao Yao jokingly said, "You didn't come here just to see the beauty, did you?" Liu's face flushed slightly, and she gently patted her forehead and said, "Oh, look at my memory!" Then she explained, "I originally wanted to chat with my sister about something, but I was attracted by this beautiful scenery."

After hearing this, Xiao Yao couldn't help laughing: "So that's how it is, I understand. No wonder you drew that person back then." Liu lowered her head shyly and said angrily: "It's all in the past, sister, don't mention it again." After that, she coughed lightly twice, trying to hide her embarrassment.

Seeing her little girl's attitude, Xiao Yao was even more amused, laughing so hard that she fell backwards. Her laughter was so hearty that it attracted the curious glances of Mu Yunxi and Yongle. However, after a glance, they continued playing chess as if nothing had to do with them. At this moment, the sight of them playing chess quietly was like a peaceful and beautiful painting.

Inside the house, Liu asked Xiao Yao softly, "Sister, who is coming? Would you mind telling me?"

Xiao Yao glanced out the window and said slowly, "Maybe it's General Jin."

"General Jin... ? But the General Jin from Shuanglin Prefecture?" Liu looked surprised.

Xiao Yao nodded slightly to show her agreement.

Liu suddenly stood up and said hurriedly, "Then I must quickly instruct Butler Qin to make careful preparations and not neglect our distinguished guests in the slightest!" After that, she stood up and prepared to leave.

Xiao Yao comforted him softly, "Don't worry, he may not stay here for too long. You can just arrange some meals."

Liu asked in surprise, "Ah? Isn't this inappropriate?"

Xiao Yao smiled slightly and said, "If you feel it is not appropriate, you can prepare it first and follow the normal way of entertaining guests. General Jin will not come with such fanfare." Liu understood what Xiao Yao meant and nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, Liu remembered something and asked curiously, "Did Manager Sun and the others go to pick someone up?"

Xiao Yao nodded slightly, "I guess so..." Because Princess Yongle said she was going to wait, and she wasn't sure if she would come, right?

Liu said gratefully, "Okay, I understand. Thank you, sister, for telling me this." She understood that Xiao Yao trusted the Qin family. If her mother-in-law's affairs had not been exposed, the Qin family would have been able to make further progress this time. She was not worried about the painting because Princess Yongle had made it clear that since they had helped her this time, the Empress would not pursue the matter.

"But sister should have told me earlier to let Qin Er and the others go. If Manager Sun and the others go, they will inevitably be targeted by people outside." Liu said worriedly.

Xiao Yao saw that the worry on Liu's face didn't seem fake, and she was touched. She smiled and said softly, "Don't worry too much, sister."

Xiao Yao couldn't help but feel moved by Liu's heartfelt words. Although she had only lived in the Qin family for a few days, she could truly feel Liu's care and concern, and every detail was handled just right. She was sincerely grateful to Liu. No matter the reason, Liu was an extraordinary person.

"Thank you for your kindness, sister. We also considered sending someone from the Qin family, but we were worried that General Jin wouldn't trust them. If something went wrong, we wouldn't be able to explain to the Qin family," Xiao Yao explained. In reality, this was only part of the reason. More importantly, Yongle didn't trust anyone else. He sent Steward Sun and the others because he had spent time with them in his previous life and knew their loyalty to Xiao Yao, so he trusted them to do the job.

Liu felt that Xiao Yao's words made sense. Even though they were just a few thugs, if something really happened, Xiao Yao and the others would definitely feel bad. Thinking of this, Liu said, "Sister, you're so thoughtful of us. I really don't know what to do."

She secretly sighed in her heart, Xiao Yao is truly a sensible and kind-hearted woman. Not only does she know how to be grateful, but she also always considers others. Such qualities are truly rare. She was fortunate to have known such a good sister and hoped that their friendship would continue for a long time.
