Cangkonghong nodded to express his gratitude... However, Mu Ran still had a lot to know, so he kept asking Cangkonghong questions along the way, trying to find out what the current situation of the Wuxu Empire was.

As soon as he returned to the Mu Mansion, Mu Ran looked at a stranger. If he remembered correctly, he should be the fleeing royal family of Lingtai Kingdom. Xia Yu! He seemed to be discussing something with his father.

Mu Ran first asked Tang Wei to take Cang Konghong to rest, and then he walked into the hall.

"Father." Mu Ran called respectfully.

Xia Yu, who was sitting next to him, knelt down and pleaded, "Saintess, Lingtai Country still needs you!!!"

Mu Ran immediately glanced at his father, and Mu Anguo said nothing.

"Get up and talk." Mu Ran said softly.

"Thank you Saint."

Xia Yu stood up, looking very pitiful: "Saint, I wonder if you have heard of the Wuxu Empire, which was the former Lingtai Kingdom."

"Wuxu Empire?" Mu Ran acted as if he had just found out about it, wanting to see what Xia Yu wanted to say.

"Saint, please make the decision. Now a group of people have occupied Lingtai Country and changed the country's name to Empire. This is clearly disrespectful to Your Majesty."

Mu Ran finally understood. Xia Yu saw that Lingtai Kingdom was alive again and wanted to take back the territory. He was really a man who could change with the situation!

Why didn't you do this when Lingtai Kingdom was threatened, and you even escaped?

"How do you know about this?" Mu Ran asked curiously.

Xia Yu said respectfully: "Such news has been circulating on the street for a few days. Of course the Saint Girl wouldn't know about it at home."

Mu Ran looked at his father again, why didn't he tell him such things?

Mu Anguo was afraid that his daughter would offend His Majesty for the sake of Lingtai Kingdom, and His Majesty had been ignoring him during this period of time.

"Xia Yu, don't worry, I will report your matter to His Majesty."

"Thank you...thank you so much..." Xia Yu knelt down quickly, very pious.

After hearing Mu Anguo's response, Xia Yu felt relieved and retreated for the time being.

"Father, why are you helping him?" Mu Ran asked curiously, surprised by his father's behavior.

"Ran'er, your father is not helping him, but helping you."

"Help me?" Mu Ran asked in confusion.

Mu Anguo nodded: "His Majesty's attitude towards you is getting more and more depressed. You need a good fight to regain His Majesty's trust."

"Father! You want me to lead troops to attack the Wuxu Empire?" Mu Ran was stunned. His father's idea was really terrifying.

Mu Anguo did not deny it: "Mu Ran, I know you used to defend Lingtai Kingdom, but you have to know that Lingtai Kingdom has now become Wuxu Empire. Even if you don't go, His Majesty will send someone else. Do you understand? This is inevitable to fight!"

Mu Ran just didn't expect that the news would spread so quickly. What should he do? If the two sides really fought, the casualties would be the civilians.

Mu Ran didn't say anything. He felt that his father had changed a little. His father had always supported him before, but now his father actually asked him to lead troops to attack a vassal state...

No, it was an invasion, because the Principality of Guda had long ago expelled the Kingdom of Lingtai from its vassal state.

If this is the case, there is no reason for the Principality of Guda to send troops.

Of course it was Wei Chang who spread the news. After all, the time was almost ripe. It all depended on what the Principality of Guda would do, or even what the Saint would do.

His Majesty is waiting to see how the Saint Maiden performs as a test for her to enter the team.

Tang Wei stayed with Mu Ran the whole afternoon. Putting aside the idea of ​​lying, Tang Wei felt that Mu Ran was a good girl, but she worried too much and always thought from other people's perspectives, abandoning her own perspective. If she continued like this, she would definitely hurt herself.

"Miss, eat something. You haven't eaten lunch yet." Tang Wei whispered from the side.

"I can't eat." Mu Ran said lightly. He wanted to go and see what happened in Lingtai Country and what major changes had occurred. Would it be the same as the rumors?

Tang Wei found that she was still studying at her age, while others were concerned about national affairs.

As night fell, Mu Anguo shouted outside, "Ran'er, His Majesty has called an emergency meeting."

Mu Ran opened her beautiful eyes. It seemed that His Majesty was going to take action.

"Father, I understand."

After changing clothes, Tang Wei accompanied Mu Ran out. As soon as they walked out of the door, Mu Ran saw Cang Konghong leading a horse.

"Miss, almost all the things in the mansion are done by someone else, so I let him come here to be a groom." Tang Wei explained.

"Okay."

"Don't worry, Miss. My cousin has also practiced and is a fighter." Tang Wei said with a smile.

No wonder, he is a fighter: "Get on the carriage first."

"Yes, miss."

They soon arrived at the gate of the palace, and the father and daughter got out of the car and walked in.

Tang Wei and Cang Konghong were waiting outside. I wonder what they will discuss today. Will they go to war directly? Will Mu Ran be the one leading the troops?

Tang Wei is now a little worried about Mu Ran. If Mu Ran really went, everyone except her will die in the snow. Can Mu Ran accept such a blow?

Looking at that thin figure, she seems to be carrying too many things on her shoulders. Girls of this age should just fall in love and enjoy the care of their boyfriends, but she... Different times create different people.

The father and daughter walked into the palace without saying anything along the way. It seemed that they had a disagreement.

As Feng Yongchang walked out, everyone knelt down and shouted "Long live!"

"My dear ministers, please stand up!" Feng Yongchang said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"I called you here tonight because my spies have confirmed the rumors!" Having said this, Feng Yongchang paused, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"The Wuxu Empire does exist!"

Hearing His Majesty say this, everyone's face darkened. This is a provocation! They actually established their own empire! Feng Yongchang slapped the armrest fiercely: "This Wuxu Empire is so bold! They actually established an empire privately without my consent! Do you take me seriously?"

Ding Bowen bowed and said, "Your Majesty! The Wuxu Empire is committing treason! As long as the Saint is willing to lead the troops to advance, the lost land will be recovered."

How despicable... Lingtai State's status as a vassal state was abolished three years ago, and now it is said to be a lost territory. How shameless.

At least Mu Ran thought so.

Feng Yongchang waved his hand, and the chief eunuch beside him shouted, "Xia Yu is here to see you!"

Xia Yu walked into the hall trembling with fear and shouted respectfully, "Long live His Majesty!"

"I'm asking you, the Xia family is the royal family of Lingtai Country!"

"Your Majesty, yes!"

This is exactly what Feng Yongchang wanted to hear!
