Chapter 377 Cutting off the retreat
As night fell, there was no light in the room where Rong Zhang was. He sat in the dark room, not saying a word.
It wasn't until someone knocked on the door that Rong Zhang responded: "Come in."
"Your Highness, we have brought back Chang Mo's body."
There was a flash of sadness in Rong Zhang's eyes. Chang Mo had followed him from the very beginning, but he couldn't save him.
"Have you found out everything?" Rong Zhang asked.
"Prime Minister Sun's driver committed suicide shortly after the incident."
Hearing this answer, Rong Zhang knew that Prime Minister Sun's death was plotted by someone else, and Chang Mo was framed: "Who?"
"I can't find it. The clues are gone."
Rong Zhang couldn't think of anyone other than Feng Xuanming who could cover the sky with one hand in Xixia. It seemed that Feng Xuanming knew about his cooperation with Feng Zhaolin, so he deliberately killed Chang Mo to warn him.
"Your Highness, what should we do now?"
Rong Zhang's face flashed with ruthlessness: "Since the King of Xixia doesn't want us to interfere in Xixia's affairs, then no matter what happens in the future, we will not get involved."
Regarding the current situation in Western Xia, perhaps only Feng Xuanming himself still thinks that everything is under his control. In fact, everything has long gone off track.
Since Feng Xuanming is so ruthless this time, he will not meddle in other people's business!
"Your Highness." Xuan Ling suddenly appeared, "Eunuch Qi, who is beside the King of Xixia, is here."
"Let him in."
Qi Rui brought a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. He looked at Rong Zhang and smiled attentively, "Prince Rong Zhang, Chang Mo made a big mistake this time. The emperor had no choice but to let this old servant bring some things over for fear of wronging the prince."
Looking at the two large boxes of gold and silver, Rong Zhang remained calm and said, "Since Chang Mo was at fault first, it is not wrong for the King of Xixia to handle the matter impartially. These two boxes are too expensive. I cannot afford them. Eunuch Qi should take them back."
Rong Zhang was firm in his attitude, and Qi Rui was a little embarrassed for a moment: "Prince Rong Zhang, this is specially selected by the emperor. If you don't accept it..."
Before Qi Rui could finish, Rong Zhang had the box closed. "I am here to celebrate the birthday. How can I accept the gifts from the King of Xixia? If my father knew, he would definitely blame me for not doing my job well. Besides, I am going to marry Princess Xinning. I would feel guilty if I accept these things."
Qi Rui has been with Feng Xuanming for so many years, and he is very good at observing people's hearts. From Rong Zhang's attitude, he knew that he had already hated Feng Xuanming: "Prince Rong Zhang, everyone has seen what happened to Chang Mo, and the emperor can do nothing about it."
"It is because I failed to discipline my subordinates. I dare not and will not blame the King of Xixia for this. After my birthday, I will immediately return to Beirong and will not stay for long."
Rong Zhang's meaning was very clear. He had suffered a loss in the matter of Chang Mo, but Feng Xuanming should not expect to gain any benefits from him.
Qi Rui finally took the things back intact, and reported Rong Zhang's words to Feng Xuanming.
Feng Xuanming didn’t take Rong Zhang too seriously at first. He didn’t believe that there would be a day when he would need Rong Zhang’s help: “Then put these things back.”
"Yes." Qi Rui glanced at Feng Xuanming's face and reminded him, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother's health has become increasingly unwell. Do you want to go and see her?"
"What did the doctor say?"
