Because Xu Yan brought gold, silver and jewelry, dancer and singer, to express his surrender, Ouyang Chun could not confirm the other party's true thoughts. Even if Xu Yan's probability of surrendering was not too high, he could not be killed with one blow. If he really wanted to negotiate the requirements successfully, he would save effort than taking Wuqing County without bloodshed, and at the same time, he would reduce huge casualties on the battlefield. The cost of repairing damaged city walls, city gates and other defense facilities after siege can also be saved.

So through the envoy sent by Xu Yan, they began to bargain with each other around the conditions for surrender.

On the other hand, the Ruan Family Xiaoliu remembered that he had a heavy responsibility and dared not forget it for a moment.

Her performance in front of Ouyang Chun was not successful. She was also greatly frustrated in front of Dongfang Shu. She wanted to let Dongfang Shu have the same expression as other men, but she was completely defeated! Although she "showed her sincerity", she hoped to be with Dongfang Shu and said that she could do anything. Dongfang Shu had no reaction, so she still let her be with other dancers and singers. She was not summoned at her normally, so she just left them idle.

Since this is not possible, the Ruan family Lao Liu took advantage of the soldiers in the camp to relax his vigilance. He occasionally walked out of the camp tent and tried to contact important generals such as Hua Boheng, Tang Yu, and Zhou Ya. He even occasionally greeted some middle and low-level generals and used his appearance to approach the other party.

Hua Boheng and Zhou Ya have good self-control. After all, they are old generals with children in the family and need to take into account their faces. Moreover, Ouyang Chun has given them to Dongfang Shu.

Other generals were more difficult to control themselves. Faced with the charming appearance of the Ruan family, the bones suddenly became soft. Even though they knew that Dongfang Shu was not easy to mess with, they couldn't help but communicate with this stunning beauty. Many people even had the illusion that she was interested in herself.

The Ruan family's elder Liu couldn't instigate Ouyang Chun and Dongfang Shu, so he started with other generals. She was given to Dongfang Shu. Even if the other party deliberately neglected him, he was too close to other men like this, and using his charm to make these generals unable to help but come over to show their attention. I am afraid that Dongfang Shu would be furious when he knew about it. After all, such things are not good-looking for men. No matter how restrained he is to himself, he will be impulsive and lose his mind when encountering such things.

It would be a great success if it could successfully provoke Dongfangshu and other Chinese generals.

The Ruan Lao Liu's every move was actually in Dongfang Shu's eyes.

Observation during this period made Dongfang Shu completely sure that the singer "Xiao Liu" was definitely the protagonist who sent by Xu Yan to try to dismantle the generals of the Chinese army from within and create internal strife.

The so-called surrender negotiations are simply fake and are purely delaying time.

Since you see the problem, you will naturally not let it continue.

So he ordered someone to find the Ruan family's elder sixth.

The Ruan family's elder Liu came to Dongfangshu and respectfully said: "Sir, summon me to come, what are the instructions?"

Dongfang Shun said: "Someone came to talk about Xiaoliu before the next step. I heard that you have a wide range of friendship in the camp recently?"

Upon hearing this, the Ruan family's elder Liu immediately knelt down and replied: "Reply to Mr. Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu is very wronged! Recently, many people came to harass him. Xiao Liu was afraid that the gentleman would not dare to tell him..."

"I would like to advise you, and these tricks of sow discord should be settled quickly, and don't continue!" Dongfang Shu directly exposed, "I tried to sow relations with other generals, but I couldn't succeed!"

"It's unfair! Xiao Liujue has no such intention. Please be aware of it!"

"Okay! Your every move during this period is very clear." Dongfang Shu shook his head and said, "Look at your witty and agile, unlike an ordinary woman, why can't you see through the current situation and be willing to use a beauty plan for Xu Yan? Since you have seen through it, you will not succeed if you do any provocation."

"Sir, you misunderstood..." The Ruan family's elder Liu was suddenly a little panicked when facing Dongfang Shu's eyes that seemed to see through everything.

"No need to say more," Dongfang Shu waved his hand, "Since you see through Xu Yan's plan, you will naturally not follow his wishes. Our army will stop negotiations and directly attack Wuqing County. You have two choices. You can be kind and send you back to Xu Yan; or stay with you honestly. You are very smart and should know that everything you do next is futile. If you really want to be angry, you will bear the consequences! Go back to the account and think carefully. As for what choices you make, it depends on yourself."

Dongfang Shu asked the Ruan family's sixth son to return to the tent, and specifically ordered his subordinates to take good care of her, and then went to the main account to inform Ouyang Chun about the matter.

Since he knew that Xu Yan did not surrender sincerely and deliberately used a beauty trick to provoke discord, Ouyang Chun would naturally not be polite. He immediately summoned the generals in the camp to discuss and ordered the envoy Xu Yan to go back and inform him, asking him to open the city and surrender immediately, otherwise the Chinese troops would directly attack the city and capture Wuqing County.

The envoy fled back to the city and reported to Xu Yan.

When he learned that the Ruan family Xiaoliu was discovered by the other party, Ouyang Chun asked him to open the door and surrender immediately. He knew that there was no way to continue to delay and Xu Yan could not really open the city to surrender. So he ordered the soldiers in the city to hold on to the city and prepare all the defensive facilities.

Xu Yan's actions have shown his attitude.

Since that's the case, there is no need to be polite to Ouyang Chun.

The Chinese army immediately launched an offensive, marched towards Wuqing County, and attacked the city forcibly.

When the two armies fought, Xu Yan tried his best to defend the city. Although under the strong attack of the Chinese army, the Liang Dynasty's defenders suffered heavy casualties and the strength of the city was getting weaker and weaker, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and persevere.

The Chinese army attacked for several days. During this period, the Ruan Family Lao Liu, who knew that his mission had failed and could not continue, finally confessed his identity to Dongfang Shu after careful consideration.

She is not a singer, but Ruan Shao's daughter. The main reason for coming here this time is to exchange for the only son in the family.

Seeing her honesty, Dongfang Shu said, "It's meaningless to stay here now. The previous two choices are still counting. During the truce, I can order someone to send you back to Wuqing County. I believe Xu Yan is willing to take you back to the city. Although Wuqing County will be broken soon, we will meet again soon."

"Sir, since the beginning, looked down on me, or did he know the purpose of me, so he disliked me?" The elder of the Ruan family raised his head and asked.

Dongfang Shu shook his head slightly: "I have never looked down on the girl, nor have I felt disgusted. Instead, I admire the girl's courage very much."

"Since that's the case, why should I send my servants away?"

"Don't you want to go back and reunite with your family?"

When the Ruan family heard this, the Liu of the Ruan family showed a sad expression: "Go home? If this trip fails, my father will definitely be furious. Xu Yan is unable to protect himself, and he is afraid that he will not be able to find the only male man for my family. Even if he returns to the city and stays in the military camp for so many days, his father will definitely have no face to accept it. He will pretend that he does not have this daughter and will not recognize his servant. The only choice at that time is to give the servant to Xu Yan, so that if Xu Yan is lucky enough to evacuate after the defeat, I will plead with him and ask him to help find someone."

"You are in the military camp, and you are under your belt, but you have not lost your innocence..." Halfway through the words, Dongfang Shu sighed, "Yes, others will not believe it if you say it. Then aren't you going back?"

"It's not that I'm not going to go back, but I can't go back." The Ruan Lao Liu replied, "Even if I return to the city, I'm afraid I'll meet the general again soon. By then, I'll be Xu Yan's person. In contrast, it might be better for me to stay by my husband's side. My husband is extremely wise and a gentleman, and I'm so tolerant of my husband's affairs..."

"Okay! The girl is not a singer. Since she has decided to stay, don't call her slave anymore." Dongfang Xu said, "Lingzun regards you as a bargaining chip in exchange for your only son. This is your family matter. I can't say much. However, such a family is too heavy for the girl. It's better not to go back. All Chinese women can stand alone, and no one will regard them as a crop. If you are willing to give up, you can follow her to Jinzhou after the war."

"Slave... the girl is willing to follow Mr.!" The Ruan family's elder Liu responded, "I only ask for the matter of Mr. If I can agree, I will be a cow and a horse for the rest of my life and serve you with all my heart!"

"explain!"

"Sir is a disciple of the Danyang King. The young woman dared to ask you to ask the prince for an order. If you find my brother on the battlefield, please let him return home safely."

"I didn't expect Ling Zun to treat him like this, and the girl was still thinking about family affection."

"After all, it's my brother!"

"Okay! I'll send a message to my master immediately and help the girls pay attention to the battlefields everywhere."

"Thank you sir!"

"Since the girl has decided to stay, after this battle, I will wait for the whole world to be unified, and I will return to Jinzhou to ask my master to give me a marriage in person! I wonder what the girl wants?"

The Ruan family’s elder sixth was very surprised: “The young girl thought she was sir…”

Given the distantness of Dongfang Shu to her during this period and the ignorance of various means, she thought the other party was not interested in her.

Dongfang Shu blushed: "No man is not moved by a stunning beauty like a girl. But he cannot miss a big deal because of his children's affair. He must always be rational to avoid losing his master's face."

The Ruan family’s elders knew that it was not that they were not charming enough. Seeing Dongfang Shu’s appearance, they couldn’t help but chuckled: “The young lady thought that the gentleman preferred Longyang!”

Dongfang Shu made a big blush again and quickly changed the topic: "Since the girl is determined to stay, she wants to give up the past. What's more, how can a person like a girl be unknown? If you don't dislike her, how can you name the girl Ruan Shu in the future?"

"Ruan Shu, Jing Nu Qishu?" The Ruan family's elder Liu felt a little embarrassed. The word Shu represents a beautiful woman, which is quite straightforward.

But Ruan Shu is indeed a good name, and she likes it very much.

"In the lower Dongfang Shu, it is homophonic, and only the word Shu is worthy of the girl." Dongfang Shu said.

"Since that's the case, the young lady will call him Ruan Shu in the future! I hope Mr. can treat Shu'er kindly."

Dongfang Shu left the Ruan family's elder Liu, named him Ruan Shu, and reported to Ning Ze via telegram.

Ning Ze still favored his apprentice very much. It was also surprising that his apprentice's wife was so quick that he immediately sent an order everywhere to find Ruan Shu's brothers on the battlefield.

At the same time, under the fierce offensive of the Chinese army, Xu Yan defended the city and eventually died in battle. Wuqing City was occupied by Ouyang Chun's army.
