You Cannot Afford To Offend My Woman

Chapter 758 (Everything Is Part of the Plan)

”What are you standing there for? Hurry and thank the young lady,” as they say, acting must be done properly.

Cang Konghong nodded in appreciation.

However, Mu Ran still had many things to understand, so she kept asking Cang Konghang questions along the way, inquiring about the current situation of the Voidless Empire.

Just as she returned to the Mu Mansion, Mu Ran noticed a stranger. If she remembered correctly, he should be a member of the exiled royal family of the Valoris. Xia Yu! He seemed to be discussing something with her father.

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

”Father,” Mu Ran respectfully called.

Xia Yu, who was sitting on the side, immediately knelt down and said with a pleading tone, ”Saintess, the Valoris still needs you!”

Mu Ran glanced at her father, Mu Anguo, who remained silent.

”Get up and speak,” Mu Ran said softly.

”Thank you, Saintess.”

Xia Yu stood up, looking pitiful, and said, ”Saintess, I beg you to intervene. A group of people has occupied Valoris and even changed its name to the Voidless Empire. This is clearly disrespectful to His Majesty.”

Mu Ran understood. This Xia Yu saw that the Valoris was alive again and wanted to reclaim the territory. He was truly a man who followed the wind!

Where were you when Valoris was under threat? You ran away.

”How did you come to know about this?” Mu Ran curiously asked.

Xia Yu respectfully replied, ”Such news has been circulating on the streets for a few days, so naturally, the Saintess wouldnʼt know about it at home.”

Mu Ran then looked at her father again. Why didnʼt he inform her about such matters?

Mu Anguo was afraid that his daughter would offend His Majesty for the sake of the Valoris, and during this time, His Majesty had been cold towards her.

”Xia Yu, you can rest assured. I will report your request to His Majesty,” Mu Ran said.

”Thank you... Thank you very much,” Xia Yu quickly kowtowed, showing deep devotion.

Hearing Mu Ranʼs acquiescence, Xia Yu felt relieved and withdrew.

”Father, why are you helping him?” Mu Ran asked curiously, finding her fatherʼs actions surprising.

”Ranʼer, I am not helping him; I am helping you,” Mu Anguo explained.

”Helping me?” Mu Ran questioned.

Mu Anguo nodded and said, ”His Majestyʼs attitude towards you is becoming increasingly negative. You need a splendid battle to regain his trust.”

”Father! Are you asking me to lead the troops to attack the Voidless Empire?” Mu Ran was taken aback; her fatherʼs idea was truly terrifying.

Mu Anguo did not deny it. ”Mu Ran, I know you used to defend the Valoris frequently, but you have to understand that the Valoris has now become the Voidless Empire. Even if you donʼt go, His Majesty will send someone else. Do you understand? This war is inevitable!”

Mu Ran hadnʼt expected the news to spread so quickly. What should she do now? If both sides really started a war, it would be the common people who would suffer.

Mu Ran didnʼt say anything. She felt that her father had changed a bit. He had always been supportive of her, but now he was asking her to lead troops to attack an affiliated country...

No, it was aggression, because the Divine Steppes had long expelled Valoris from its affiliation.

If that were the case, there was no reason for the Divine Steppes to send troops.

Of course, it was Wei Chang who spread the news. After all, the time was ripe, and it all depended on what the Divine Steppes would do, or even what the Saintess would do.

Ye Hua was waiting to see how the Saintess would handle it, as it was a test for her as a member of the team.

The whole afternoon, Tang Wei stayed by Mu Ranʼs side. Putting aside the deception, Tang Wei thought Mu Ran was a good girl, but she worried too much and always thought from other peopleʼs perspectives, abandoning her own standpoint. This would surely harm herself.

”Miss, please eat something. You havenʼt eaten anything since noon,” Tang Wei said softly.

”I canʼt eat,” Mu Ran replied faintly. She really wanted to go and see what had happened to the Valoris, if there had been any major changes or if the rumours were true.

Tang Wei noticed that even when she was so old, she was still reading books, while others were already concerned about important national matters.

As the night fell, Mu Anguo shouted from outside, ”Ranʼer, His Majesty is calling for an emergency meeting.”

Mu Ran opened her beautiful eyes; it seemed that His Majesty was about to take action.

”Father, I understand.”

After changing clothes, Tang Wei accompanied Mu Ran as they walked out. Just as they stepped outside, Mu Ran saw Cang Konghong, who was holding the horse.

”Miss, most of the things in the mansion have been taken care of, so I let him come and serve as a stablehand,” Tang Wei explained.

”Thatʼs fine.”

”Donʼt worry, Miss. My cousin has also practised cultivation and is a warrior,” Tang Wei smiled.

No wonder, he turned out to be a warrior. ”Get on the carriage first.”

”Yes, Miss.”

They soon arrived at the entrance of the palace, and the father and daughter got off the carriage and walked in.

Tang Wei and Cang Konghang waited outside, not knowing what results they would reach today. Would they go to war directly? Would Mu Ran lead the troops?

Tang Wei was a bit worried about Mu Ran now. If Mu Ran really went, except for her, everyone else would die in that snowy land. Could Mu Ran handle such a blow?

Watching her slender figure, she carried too much on her shoulders. At this age, other girls should be dating and enjoying their boyfriendʼs care, but she...

Different times create different people.

Father and daughter entered the palace, and they didnʼt say anything along the way. It seemed that they had different opinions.

As Feng Yong Chang walked out, everyone knelt and shouted, ”Long live Your Majesty!”

”All ministers, rise!” Feng Yong Chang said in a solemn voice.

”Thank you, Your Majesty!”

”I called you here tonight because my spies have confirmed the rumours!” Feng Yong Chang paused for a moment, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

”The Voidless Empire indeed exists!”

Hearing His Majesty say this, everyoneʼs faces turned serious. This was provocation! They actually established an empire without His Majestyʼs consent! They dared to disregard His Majesty!

Feng Yong Chang slammed the armrest, ”The Voidless Empire has such audacity! They have created an empire without my consent! Do they not take me seriously?”

Ding Wenfu bowed and said, ”Your Majesty, the Voidless Empire is acting out of line! As long as the Saintess is willing to lead the troops, we will surely reclaim the lost territory.”

So shameless! Three years ago, they abolished Valorisʼs affiliated status, and now they call it lost territory. They have no shame.

At least thatʼs what Mu Ran thought.

Feng Yong Chang waved his hand, and the eunuch in charge shouted, ”Xia Yu, come forward!”

Xia Yu nervously walked into the hall and respectfully greeted, ”Long live Your Majesty!”

”I ask you, is the Xia Family part of the Valorisʼs royal family?”

”Replying to Your Majesty, yes!”

This was exactly what Feng Yong Chang wanted to hear!
