and ask him to retreat."Ye Xi took her orders and left. Dugu City led his army back to Linxi County. Feng Lingxi heard the news and rushed over. Seeing Dugu City return, she immediately asked him the..."Big brother, please don't be impulsive. Wait for my message before doing anything."

Zhou Mu looked at Yu Feng, "Come with me, when the time comes I'll arrange the brothers. If something happens to me, I have to leave."

Wu Luo also wanted to say that Zhou Mu had already walked far with Yu Feng.

"Damn it, if this Dugu City dares to touch Zhou Mu, I'll chop him up."

"Big brother, let's just take a look and listen to Second Brother first."

The Third Master spoke up, and immediately dispatched someone to follow [him/her], reporting any developments immediately.

Zhou Mu followed Yu Feng to Dugu City. From afar, they saw the army of the Yuan Dynasty. This anti-bandit operation brought 30,000 soldiers. How could Dugu City be so lacking in confidence that it dared to fight them

"Your Majesty, Zhou Mu is here."

Feng Lingxi's eyes lit up when she heard Zhou Mu had arrived. Looking at the scholar behind Yu Feng, was that handsome young man Zhou Mu

This doesn't look like a bandit at all, he looks just like a young master.

"Prince Chen, Princess Chen, this is the second-in-command and military advisor, Zhou Mu."

Zhou Mu glanced at Dugu Cheng and Feng Lingxi, bowed, and said, "Zhou Mu greets King Chen and Queen Chen."

Feng Lingxi looked Zhou Mu up and down, her gaze landing on the bomb at his waist. She suddenly smiled.

"Military advisor, are you planning to die with us this time"

Zhou Muxiao was a bit surprised by Feng Lingxi's straightforwardness.

It still depends on the Prince and Princess Consort of Chen. I'm just a bandit, afraid of death.

How could someone who fears death become a bandit

獨孤城看著周沐絲毫不慌的表情，倒是不以為然這人的。

"Life is rarely smooth sailing, and Zhou was no exception. By chance, he found himself resorting to banditry, for there are no rules against fearing death."

"Let's be straightforward, I won't beat around the bush. I'm interested in you, and similarly, I came here today to bring you a gift." Feng Lingxi's words surprised Zhou Mu somewhat. She looked at the sincerity in her eyes.

Zhou Mu's face broke into a smile, looking at Feng Ling Xi with a half-smile.

"Princess Consort Chen, aren't you here to suppress bandits today You don't look like it."

Feng Lingxi became even more curious about Zhou Mu's calmness and composure. Was he really from her hometown Why hadn't he shown any interest when Yi Feng told him about her Even if he wasn't interested in her, wouldn't he be interested in gunpowder

Zhou Mu, you said yourself that it was out of desperation that you turned to banditry. As long as you're willing to serve the people and abandon your ways, we wouldn't be here today to suppress bandits.

Zhou Mu heard her words and laughed happily.

After a long pause, he finally asked.

"Then I'd like to know, what does the Crown Princess of Chen want to say to Zhou"

"Nature is the blueprint for bombs. And here's another question: Did you make your bomb yourself, or did someone else bring it to you from somewhere else, perhaps the future"

Feng Lingxi hinted very obviously, a pair of eyes staring at Zhou Mu, wanting to see clues from his gaze, but she was wrong, there was no panic in Zhou Mu's eyes.

Zhou Mu didn't understand what the Princess Consort of Chen meant by this.

Gunpowder, atomic bomb.

Feng Lingxi continued, Zhou Mu frowned, still without a reaction.

"Zhou Mu, have you heard of these"

"No, but the name sounds pretty good. Maybe I can use it when I create something new." Zhou Mu's expression became much more serious. He really had listened to the name.

Feng Lingxi looked at Zhou Mu's reaction and felt something was amiss.

He seems to only know about bombs. As for gunpowder and atomic bombs, he's never heard of them. Could she have gotten it wrong Isn't Zhou Mu from her hometown

"Xier, is Mu still coming this week"

Feng Lingxi stared at Zhou Mu for a long while, frowning.

"I'm not quite sure either. I always felt like he was from my hometown, but the way he looks now doesn't seem like he's lying to me."

"Zhou Mu, who gave you the bomb schematics"

"I drew this myself, what do you think, Princess Consort Chen Interested in Zhou's bombs"

Feng Lingxi took out a piece of gunpowder. Zhou Mu looked at what was in her hand, without any reaction.

"This is what I made, called gunpowder. It's similar to your bombs; both are fire weapons."

Feng Lingxi's words didn't elicit much of a reaction from Zhou Mu. Zhou Mu frowned slightly, "The Princess Consort of Chen also knows about firearms I did hear my elder brother mention that the four princesses of this Daming Dynasty know quite a lot of things, but what are you telling me this for"

"Haven't you forgotten"

Feng Lingxi interjected, "If Zhou Mu isn't suffering from amnesia, then he truly is a person from this place. However, Dugu Cheng said that there are no gunpowder here. If this were indeed something developed by someone from this place, wouldn't the existence of gunpowder become increasingly prevalent"

"How do you know"

Zhou Mu finally reacted, looking at Feng Ling Xi's stunning face, "Do you know me"

Perhaps we really do know each other.

Feng Lingxi heard that Zhou Mu had lost his memory, her mind racing. If she could persuade him to join Dugu City's ranks, it would undoubtedly be a gain of a powerful general.

"But I don't know him. I only remember my name is Zhou Mu."

Zhou Mu carefully sized up Feng Lingxi, but she truly had no memory of her at all. This woman was utterly unfamiliar to her.

"My knowledge comes from firearms. You know, in this world, besides the people in your village who know about this bomb, only I do."

Zhou Mu heard Feng Lingxi's words and became even more puzzled, squinting at her.

"What do you mean Could it be that we actually knew each other before"

Feng Lingxi nodded, "It's very possible, I might have amnesia too. I would be making these firearms, and you would be making this bomb, which is why I said we might know each other." To convince Zhou Mu, Feng Lingxi was truly putting her heart into it, making up a story about herself having amnesia.

Zhou Mu fell into deep thought. Feng Ling Xi's words made him start to waver.

He also thought about recovering his memory, wanting to know who he really was

"Look at this gunpowder I made."

Wind Lingxi handed the gunpowder to him. Zhou Mu received it in confusion and took a closer look. Soon, he disassembled it and identified its contents, speaking words that Wind Lingxi was familiar with.

Feng Lingxi was almost certain that Zhou Mu was like her, just wondering why there were so many fellow villagers.

"I never expected that the princess consort, a mere woman, would possess such intelligence. Zhou Mu admires it."

After finishing, he returned Feng Lingxi's courtesy, showing his admiration.

"Zhou Mu, do you want to remember the past I can help you."

What is the purpose

Zhou Mu looked at Feng Lingxi, "Don't tell me you're only interested in me because we both know gunpowder. You think because we know each other, you want to recruit me and have me surrender."

Zhou Mu, hiding out as a bandit, don't you feel sorry for yourself staying in this mountain stronghold Don't you want to know about your past

Feng Lingxi tempted her, but she still didn't believe it. This week Mu wouldn't want to know about his past.idn't benefit her either. Now he clings to the princess and constantly drags her into trouble, he's simply harmful."What if the other party is only dealing with Feng Aotiān, and not the princess at al...
