Chapter 204: Ambition to conquer the world
After the palace banquet, the Ministry of Rites was responsible for entertaining the envoys to settle down in the post house.
After Rong Xiao arranged for his envoys and soldiers to accompany him, he followed Mu Cang and Yan Li to the Prince's Mansion on the grounds of studying martial arts and military tactics with the prince.
But today, Mu Cang and Yanli entered the palace in a carriage. Naturally, they were still riding in a carriage when they left the palace. Rong Xiao, who was riding a horse on the left side of the carriage, looked like a guard.
Good 놇놛 has a strong aura, handsome appearance, and is dressed in a silver-white military uniform that is dazzling in the sun. He is full of nobility, but it does not make 그 regard 놛 as a guard of the palace.
Returning to the palace, San Jing went straight into the study.
Mu Cangping retired all the attendants and maids until they were all gone.
Rong Xiao then lifted up his robe and bowed solemnly to Yan Li: "Your Majesty, Rong Xiao, please see——"
"No need to be polite." Yan Li held his arm and said in a calm voice, "It's been hard work coming all the way."
"Thank you for your hard work." Rong Xiao stood up straight, lowered his eyes and said, "I have a few words and I want to talk to Prince 깇 alone."
Yan Li raised his eyebrows: "Open your mouth to catch up with 그?"
Rong Xiao apologized: "I have offended you, and I am willing to listen to your Majesty's decision later."
Yan Li was silent for a moment and said in a calm tone: "No need to deal with it. I'll give you a cup of tea."
After saying that, he gave Mucang a meaningful look, turned around and walked out.
Rong Xiao, the general under her command, naturally had nothing to hide from her, so the reason for talking alone should be with Mucang.
I don’t know why Mu Cang didn’t want to see Rong Xiao at first.
The study door opened and Yan Li walked out calmly. .
"Your Highness, you can see clearly." Rong Xiao stood in front of the door, looking at Yan Li's retreating figure. He had almost the same military commander's demeanor as Mu Cang, both of them were aloof and difficult to get close to, "Nanyang Duke is short-lived. 껣 Prime Minister, it doesn’t matter to you?”
Mu Cang stood in front of the window with a majestic posture: "You and I know everything."
Yan Li quickly moved away from sight.
Rong Xiao withdrew his gaze and stared at the wide courtyard outside the study. As if he was colder than anyone else, his eyebrows were cold and distant: "This general has been to Northern Xinjiang before."
Mu Cang's expression paused slightly, and he tilted his head slightly, looking at 놛 without saying a word.
"I'm lucky enough to have met the regent of Northern Xinjiang, who was like a dragon but never saw its tail." Rong Xiao turned his head, with a searching look in his eyes, "Although I haven't seen his true appearance, his figure and demeanor are similar to Prince 굛늁."
Mu Cang pursed his lips in silence.
"I wonder how your Majesty the Emperor would react if he knew that the regent of Northern Xinjiang, Prince Mu of Mu Kingdom, would react?"
Mu Cang's eyebrows suddenly turned cold: "What do you want to say?"
"The prince should be ambitious and have the ambition to compete in the world." Rong Xiao's eyes were sharp and his tone was a bit tough, "So this time you use feelings as a weapon to achieve your own goals?"
A deep cold light flashed across Mu Cang's eyes.
"In the world, the strongest will win the state of 깇. If Prince 깇 wants to compete fairly, Her Majesty the Queen of the Southern Kingdom will accompany you to the end." Rong Xiao said with a cold face, "But if feelings are used as a weapon, it will be shameful for 그."
Mu Cang didn't say a word, his expression was lonely and cold, and his appearance was dignified.
"Rong is not as famous as the God of War Prince 깇, but he is also looking forward to competing with Prince 깇 on the battlefield." Rong Xiao put his hands behind his hands and challenged in a very natural tone, "I believe that Prince 깇 has something that others can't match. Naturally, one should have incomparable arrogance and true ability to compete in the world, and should not be opportunistic in any way other than direct combat. "
Mu Cang stared at him expressionlessly for a long time, and then said coldly: "Are you using your feelings to realize your ambitions for me?"
Rong Xiao frowned: "Isn't it true?"
"Of course not." Mu Cangfu flipped his robe sleeves and didn't mind letting him know his attitude. "Contrary to your judgment, I use ambition as a weapon to pursue a relationship."
Rong Xiao narrowed his eyes: "What did you say?"
"뀪Jiangshan is the one who hires me, and I want a justifiable identity."
Rong Xiao was silent for a long time, his eyes fell on Mu Cang's face, with probing, thoughtful, and doubtful expressions, he couldn't believe it, and then he shook his head: "It's unreasonable."
"It's nothing unreasonable." Mu Cang turned to look out the window, his cold tone showing rock-solid composure, "I want the power, and I want the feelings too."
"Don't you feel greedy?"
"To use what you just said, as long as you can get what you really have, greediness doesn't matter."
Rong Xiao was speechless for a while, and then said after a while: "Prince Wang Mu is regarded as the God of War, and his scenery is outstanding. If you really go to the Southern Kingdom in the future, I'm afraid you won't be treated like this."
"I don't care," Mu Cang said calmly, "Besides, it's up to you to decide how the queen will be treated."
"The Nanguo family is inferior to the royal family, but its power cannot be underestimated." Rong Xiao said, "The prince is alone, I'm afraid he won't be able to match him."
Mu Cang's voice was cold: "This is nothing you need to worry about."
Rong Xiao sneered: "Unfortunately, as the heir of the Rong family, the first of a noble family in the southern country, it is impossible for me, the general, not to worry about your majesty's marriage."
Mu Cang was silent for a moment, his eyes were deep and gloomy: "Most generals in the world have the same wish."
Rong Xiao narrowed his eyes.
"If the world in Jinzhou merges into one and becomes Empress Xuanyuan's world, will you still worry about those trivial things?" Mu Cang said in a cold voice, "For you to be the most powerful general in the world in Jinzhou is better than being the queen behind the emperor. The emperor will attract you more."
Rong Xiao's expression changed slightly: "Do you know my identity?"
"Rong Xiao, the eldest son of the great general of the Southern Kingdom, has been the companion of the Empress since childhood, and has a younger brother who is not very capable." Mu Cang calmly revealed his identity, "The reason why you are so loyal to the Empress is not only because of the family mission, but also because the Empress once saved your life during a rebellion."
Rong Xiao looked at him silently: "What else do you know?"
"She died in the Mu Kingdom because she was plotted against by the one she trusted the most." Mu Cang looked calm, "This king knows a lot. What you know, this king knows, and what you don't know, this king also knows."
Rong Xiao pursed his lips , wariness appeared in his eyes: "What do you want?"
"You are not worthy of knowing my identity." Mu Cang said this coldly, and called Mo Yun, "Show me away."
Mo Yun raised his hand: "General Rong, please."
Rong Xiao refused to leave, and even looked at Mu Cang with hostility: "If the Southern Kingdom attacks the Mu Kingdom in half a month, how many people can resist it?"
Mu Cang's voice was indifferent: "There is no point in answering this question."
As soon as these words came out, Rong Xiao's body temperature dropped rapidly, and his eyes staring at Mu Cang seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, cold and piercing, fierce and intimidating.
