Mu Jing pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh? I just heard Brother Nian say that you've become the chief court magician. Why aren't you leading the team? "
Nian Bing smiled and said, "It's Bing Yun's teacher. You all must know her. She's the protector of our Ice Moon Empire, the Ice Goddess Priestess." When he said this, his eyes never left Mu Jing's body. He could clearly feel her body tremble slightly and her expression change. Although this process was very short, Nian Bing still caught it.
Luo Rou spoke up from the side, "Oh, so it's the Ice Goddess Priestess. If there's a chance, I'd like to meet the continent's only God Descending Master."
The man who had been staring at Halogen coldly snorted and said with some disdain, "Is a God Descending Master that amazing? If there's a chance, I'd like to see it too. "
Taking advantage of his words, Nian Bing hurriedly asked Mu Jing, "I haven't asked, who is this?"
Mu Jing smiled and said, "This is my new teacher, Master Zamulun. He's a magic warrior and is deeply respected by our country's imperial family. "
Zamulun? This name sounded a bit strange. At this time, the waiter had already brought over three pots and placed them in front of Nian Bing and the others. All kinds of food were placed on the table. Nian Bing explained a few words to Halogen in a low voice. Halogen didn't hold back and immediately started eating, no longer looking at Zamulun.
Mu Jing smiled and said, "Since Brother Nian represents the Ice Moon Empire, I wonder if you've seen the envoy sent by our country? What's the result of the discussion? "
Nian Bing said indifferently, "Of course I know about the alliance. As for the specific result, my king didn't say. Let's wait until after the four nation's public discussion. "
Mu Jing frowned and said, "Brother Nian is a smart person. I think you should understand the current situation. Could it be that Brother Nian doesn't care about the survival of your own country because of your relationship with the Huarong Empire? "
Nian Bing took a sip of the porridge that she had just scooped out of the pot and said, "Miss Mu Jing's words are a little harsh. Yes, I used to be a citizen of the Huarong Empire, but ever since I came to the Ice Moon Empire, I no longer had anything to do with the Huarong Empire. The fact that His Majesty sent me to participate in this meeting means that he trusts me. As for what the Ice Moon Empire will do, I'm afraid it's not something your country can control. "
A cold light flashed in Mu Jing's eyes, but she immediately calmed down. Nodding, she said, "Mu Jing misspoke, please forgive me brother Nian. However, the situation is critical now. We can't miss this opportunity! "
Nian Bing didn't reply directly. She turned to look at Luo Rou and said with a smile, "I wonder what Miss Luo Rou's opinion is?"
Luo Rou smiled and said, "The Langmu Empire has greatly supported our country, allowing many of our poor people to have food and clothing in advance. The Ottoman Empire is extremely grateful and has already decided to form an alliance with the Langmu Empire. However, our country has been very poor for many years, so sending out troops is indeed not enough. Barely holding our defensive line is already the limit. "
Nian Bing laughed inwardly. What a cunning and intelligent Luo Rou! Her meaning was clear. They could form an alliance, but the Ottoman Empire wouldn't send out troops. This was in line with Nian Bing's thoughts. Looking at her meaning, it should be possible for the Langmu Empire to pass through their borders and attack the Huarong Empire from another direction at any time. Nian Bing nodded and said, "I see. Indeed, the Ottoman Empire isn't suitable to send out troops. Your country has experienced too many vicissitudes and needs time to recuperate. "
Mu Jing sighed. She said, "Sister Luo Rou, you are still too conservative. If we don't grasp such a great opportunity, I'm afraid that in the future …"
Nian Bing smiled and said, "Otherwise, I actually agree with Miss Luo Rou's opinion. Our three countries forming an alliance is definitely a good thing for the development of each country. However, the Ottoman Empire has been through many wars, and it really isn't the time to start another war. As for our Ice Moon Empire, a long expedition is indeed not a good strategy. Therefore, we still need to think about it. Come, everyone eat the porridge. The taste is indeed not bad. "
Mu Jing looked deeply at Nian Bing and said, "Brother Nian, since your country has the intention of forming an alliance, then we should all show some sincerity. Don't you think so?"
Nian Bing smiled and said, "This time, even the Ice Goddess Priest has been invited. Don't tell me that this doesn't represent the sincerity of our country? Miss Mu Jing, tomorrow we will only talk about friendship. Let's not talk about national affairs anymore. In any case, the Four Dukes Debate will begin the day after tomorrow. There is no need to rush. Miss needs to think more, and we also need to think about our future development. Miss Luo Rou, what do you say? "
Luo Rou and Nian Bing looked at each other. Nian Bing was also looking at her. The two of them revealed a knowing smile at the same time. Luo Rou nodded and said, "That's right. It's not easy for us to come out together. Let's relax today and not talk about national affairs anymore. Luo Rou is really tired! "
From the moment they met, Nian Bing could tell that Luo Rou's body was not in good condition. Although she had also cultivated some dou qi, it was obvious that she was too tired, causing her body's functions to deteriorate. Her life force was also constantly flowing away. There was no need to ask. Luo Rou had put in a lot of effort for the Ottoman Empire in the past few years.
Mu Jing looked at the tacit understanding between the two in front of her and suppressed the anger in her heart. She smiled and said, "Alright then, let's not talk about official matters today. The porridge here is really good. If you need anything else, just order it. It's my treat today." She was also calculating her own plans. In today's situation, it seemed impossible to get Nian Bing and Luo Rou to make any promises. What was the use of just forming an alliance? What they needed now was to buy time and launch an attack before the Huarong Empire had a firm foothold. However, relying on the strength of the Langmu Empire alone was clearly not enough. Only with the cooperation of the three countries would they have any hope of success.
While they were eating, the sound of knocking came from the door. The waiter outside said, "Everyone, your guests have arrived."
While Mu Jing was stunned, Nian Bing had already stood up. She smiled and said, "They came with me."
After she finished speaking, she went to open the door. It was Feng Nu and Long Ling. The two girls were dressed exactly the same as Lan Chen. As soon as they entered, Nian Bing's voice sounded in their minds, "Don't get too excited. Mom and Luo Rou are here."
Feng Nu's body trembled. She immediately saw Yu Ruyan. Long Ling also saw Luo Rou. Although the two girls had been warned by Nian Bing, they still unconsciously quickened their steps and walked to the table. When they took off their bamboo hats, just like Lan Chen, the entire room seemed to light up. Their beauty immediately overshadowed Mu Jing. Even Luo Rou couldn't help but reveal a surprised expression. Feng Nu and Lan Chen's beauty was something that she and Mu Jing couldn't compare to. Even Long Ling was slightly more beautiful than them.
Long Ling also saw Mu Jing. She said in surprise, "Rou 'er, Jingjing, so you're both here!"
Mu Jing stood up and greeted them with surprise, "Ling 'er, why are you here? You … "At this point, she couldn't help but look at Nianbing. Long Ling's face was slightly red. She whispered," I'll explain it to you when I have the chance. "Her expression had already told Mu Jing a lot of things. Mu Jing already understood a lot without any explanation.
Nian Bing pulled Feng Nu and Long Ling to sit down. She ordered the waiter to add three more pots of porridge. One of the pots was for Halogen, who had already finished the food in front of him.
Luo Rou kindly let Long Ling sit on the other side of her. The two of the three beauties of Ice Snow City finally met again. Feng Nu sat next to Yu Ruyan. Yu Ruyan held her hand. Her eyes were shining with tears. Her daughter had finally returned to her side. This joy made her extremely excited. Her lips buzzed, and she kept saying something to Feng Nu and Lan Chen.
Mu Jing looked at Nian Bing with deep meaning and said, "Brother Nian, you're really lucky!"
Nian Bing smiled but didn't say anything. Looking at the three women who came with her, she couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. How lucky it was to have them as wives!
Zhamulun also saw Feng Nu and the other two. Previously, Lan Chen had already shocked him. Now, Feng Nu and Long Ling were also here. His eyes couldn't hide the strong jealousy. He said coldly, "It's indeed a good fortune. However, it depends on whether you can protect your own fortune."
Nian Bing said indifferently, "I have some confidence in this. Miss Mu Jing, this time, except for the Ice Goddess Priest, the rest of us are here. I heard that Miss brought a lot of people this time. You have to be careful. This is the territory of the Huarong Empire. "
Mu Jing's eyes subconsciously showed a trace of hatred. She obviously thought of the fate of her subordinates when she participated in the Master Tournament. "Brother Nian, don't forget that we're here to participate in the peace talks."
Zhamulun snorted disdainfully and said, "I really didn't expect that the Ice Moon Empire would send an inexperienced child to be the envoy. I'd like to see where your confidence comes from. " The hand on the table moved slightly, and a blue light floated out like lightning. Mu Jing wanted to stop it, but it was too late. The green light drew an arc in the air and went straight for Nian Bing's chest.
"Hmm, delicious, really delicious!" Halogen had just finished a bowl of porridge and subconsciously stretched. He just happened to raise his hand and block the blue light. The blue light disappeared without a sound, as if nothing had happened. Halogen poured himself a bowl of fresh porridge with many ingredients and continued to eat.
Luo Rou frowned and said coldly, "Jingjing, what is the meaning of this?"
Mu Jing looked at Zhamulun with dissatisfaction, but didn't dare to say anything. She could only say, "I'm sorry, my master always likes to use strength to talk. Please forgive me brother Nian."
Nian Bing smiled indifferently and said, "It's nothing. However, I find it strange that the master didn't say anything, so why did the dog bark?"
Zhamulun's eyes flashed coldly, and a sinister light flickered, "Dog? This is the first time I've heard someone describe me like that. Good, good! " A smile appeared on his face. Although he was smiling, the aura on his body was already fluctuating invisibly. He slowly stood up from his seat, and the chair he was sitting on silently turned into powder.
"Master." Mu Jing cried out and hurriedly pulled Zhamulun, "Master, could it be that you forgot what you promised me?"
Zhamulun frowned and coldly looked at Nian Bing, "Fine, we will have a chance to meet again." He raised his hand and lightly patted the table, then turned and walked out. Mu Jing hurriedly said, "I'm sorry everyone. Mu Jing will apologize to everyone another day." She hurriedly followed him out.
Just as Mu Jing walked out, Halogen suddenly grabbed his porridge pot. The huge table in front of him, including all the utensils on the table, turned into ashes in an instant.
Nian Bing's eyes revealed a trace of surprise. Yu Ruyan had already stood up and coldly snorted. Just as she was about to follow him out, she was stopped by Nian Bing, "Mother, why bother with this kind of person?"
Yu Ruyan looked at the dust on the ground and said, "This person is very strong. When Rou 'er and I first saw him, I felt that his aura was definitely not something an ordinary person could compare to. "
Nian Bing nodded and said, "Yes, he is very strong. I can almost conclude that he is not from the Langmu Empire."
Halogen drank the rest of the porridge in his pot and wiped his mouth, "Nian Bing, your judgment is very correct. Although I have never seen this person before, his aura is clearly from the same place as mine." From the moment she felt Zhamulun's powerful fighting aura, Nian Bing had already begun to suspect his identity. Later, when she saw the jealousy in Zhamulun's eyes and his provocative words, Nian Bing had already determined his strength when he attacked her and sent out that final palm strike in anger. Zhamulun was not much different from what she had imagined. His strength was definitely not below Halogen's.
Long Ling looked at the debris on the ground and said, "Alright, there are no outsiders now. Rou Rou, I heard from Nian Bing that you have become the prime minister. How amazing!"
Luo Rou sighed softly and said, "Amazing? Actually, as a woman, I am far less fortunate than you. "As she spoke, she glanced at Nian Bing beside her.
Nian Bing's heart trembled. He had already seen some clues from Luo Rou's gaze. He knew that he already had so many close female friends. He couldn't afford any more emotional debt. He hurriedly looked to the side and said to Yu Ruyan, "Mom, this time I have returned your daughter to you. You've lost weight. "
Yu Ruyan smiled and said, "Chenchen has already told me everything about you two. You really got lucky. Promise mom that you will take good care of them in the future."
Nian Bing said seriously, "I will. Mom, don't worry. Unless I die, I won't let anyone hurt them. "
Yu Ruyan pulled Lan Chen and Feng Nu's hands and walked in front of Nian Bing. She placed the two slender jade hands in Nian Bing's palms and said, "Last time, you didn't hesitate to sacrifice your life to save Chenchen. How could I still doubt you? Just now, you told Mu Jing that you are representing the Huarong Empire. Is that true? "
Nian Bing nodded and said, "It is true. Mom, there are no outsiders here, so I will speak frankly. Yes, I am related to the Rong family. Prince Rong is my biological grandfather. Although I left the Rong family when I was young, I am still a member of the Rong family. However, this time, I am indeed here for the Ice Moon Empire. At the same time, I am also here for Oran. "
Yu Ruyan said in surprise, "What are you going to do? Nian Bing, right now, the situation is very chaotic. I'm afraid it won't be easy to control. For our Ottoman Empire, whether the Huarong Empire becomes stronger, or the Langmu Empire uses this opportunity to weaken the Huarong Empire, there is no benefit. As such, although Rou 'er has decided to form an alliance with the Langmu Empire, she is not willing to send troops. "
Nian Bing said, "My thoughts are the same as Miss Luo Rou's. The alliance must be formed, but there is no need to send troops. If the three empires form an alliance, the Huarong Empire will not dare to offend them. Forming a situation where the North and the South are facing each other, such a balanced situation is perfect. If one side dominates, it will not benefit Oran or the Ice Moon Empire. I believe in Miss Luo Rou's ability. In this aspect, she is much more intelligent than me. "
Luo Rou said with some dissatisfaction, "Don't call me Miss. Don't you know how to call me something else? Ling 'er and I are good friends. You can call me Rou' er. In terms of intelligence, I can't compare to you. "
Yu Ruyan looked at Luo Rou with some surprise. Ever since Luo Rou came to the Ottoman Empire, she had displayed her intelligence in many aspects, gaining the recognition of the Ottoman Empire's King. That was why he made an exception and appointed her as the Prime Minister. Luo Rou used her own abilities, and with the support of the Duke of Bluefeather's support, she did a few big things in a short year. She made many officials submit to her, and finally became a minister of the Ottoman Empire. It had been two years, and this was the first time she had seen Luo Rou act like a little girl. There was no trace of her usual wise and farsighted appearance.
Nian Bing said with some embarrassment, "Miss Luo Rou, please don't make fun of me. I represented the Ice Moon Empire this time because I had no other choice. In terms of intelligence, how can I compare to Miss Luo Rou? I think that Miss Luo Rou has already drawn up a strategy for the Ottoman Empire for a long time to come. Oran and the Qilu Empire share a border. Right now, the Qilu Empire's situation is not stable, and the next few years are the best time to develop. I think that Miss Luo Rou will definitely not let go of such an opportunity. As for the Ice Moon Empire, it has always stood aloof from worldly affairs, and it has always been on good terms with Oran. I think that only our two empires can form the most stable alliance. " He was not being modest. He still had some confidence in dealing with some major matters. However, if he wanted to gradually strengthen a country like Luo Rou, it was impossible. He would never be able to do such a thing. He would rather cultivate in a boring manner than get involved in the struggle for power. This time, as an emissary of the Ice Moon Empire. One reason was because he felt guilty towards Yan Feng, and the other was because of Yu Ruyan and her family in the Ottoman Empire. Nian Bing was very clear that his greatest weakness was that he placed too much importance on relationships. In front of relationships, everything else could be put aside. As such, he was destined to never be able to become a ruler. Of course, he had never thought of correcting this weakness of his. If he didn't have this weakness, he would not have been able to have three beautiful wives.
Luo Rou nodded and said, "I also had this thought a long time ago. However, ever since the Ice Moon Empire's new emperor ascended to the throne, the situation has been rather chaotic. It has only gradually calmed down recently. I really did not expect that Yan Feng would actually become the new emperor of the Ice Moon Empire. After returning this time. I will immediately send an emissary to the Ice Moon Empire to discuss an alliance with your esteemed country. Right now, what I am worried about is that the border between our two countries is too long. Although we are in an alliance, once something happens, it will be difficult for us to help each other. "
Nian Bing smiled and said, "Miss Luo Rou can rest assured on this point. Since I proposed an alliance, I naturally have some confidence. If Hua Rong and Langmu make any movements, I will definitely inform Miss Luo Rou in advance so that you can prepare in advance. With our two countries helping each other, after a period of development, it will not be long before we become strong. Miss Luo Rou is still young. I think that in a few decades, the situation on the continent will be different again. "
Luo Rou said with some dissatisfaction, "Why do you keep calling me miss? Is it so hard to call me by my name? "
Nian Bing said seriously, "Right now, we are talking about proper business. Miss Luo Rou, there is something I want to talk to you about in private. Feng Nu, tell the waiter to set up a new table and order some more porridge. You guys eat first, I want to talk to Rou 'er for a while. I will be back soon. "
Yu Ruyan looked at Nian Bing with some surprise. She did not understand why Nian Bing wanted to talk to Luo Rou in private when they were all on the same side. Nian Bing nodded apologetically to Yu Ruyan, then turned and left. Luo Rou also had some doubts in her heart. First, she did not understand why Nian Bing was so confident in the alliance between the two countries. Second, she had the same doubts as Yu Ruyan.
Feng Nu did not ask anything, and immediately did as Nian Bing said. Nian Bing brought Luo Rou out of the private room, and stopped at a secluded corner.
Turning around, Nian Bing used her spiritual power to create a shield around the two of them. Then she said, "Rou 'er, do you trust me?"
Luo Rou had already guessed that Nian Bing called her out for something important. She smiled and said, "Why wouldn't I trust you? If it wasn't for you, I'm afraid I would have already married that dead Fifth Prince. Rou 'er will never forget your kindness. To be able to control my own fate, that has always been my greatest wish. If you have something to say, just say it. Even if I can't do it, I won't say a word. "
Nian Bing smiled and said, "Alright, I trust you. Rou 'er, what do you think of the world? "
Luo Rou thought for a moment and said, "Although there are many countries in Yangon, the only true powerhouse is the Huarong Empire. Although I have done my best, it is impossible for the Ottoman Empire to make a qualitative leap in a short period of time. If the Ottoman Empire wants to grow, it will take a long time. Overall, the Hua Rong Empire is very powerful. The current Emperor Hua Tian has Prime Minister Su Yue and Prince Rong, one civil and one military, supporting him. He is at his peak. Even if the three of us work together, I don't think the final result will be good. It will be very difficult to hurt the Huarong Empire. Also, there is the Langmu Empire. You must not underestimate them. Although the Langmu Empire was caught off guard and defeated by the Huarong Empire, the Langmu Empire was originally the wealthiest of the five countries. Over the years, they have accumulated a great amount of strength. Although they are not as strong as the Hua Rong Empire, they are not much stronger. It is because of this that Prince Rong decided to attack once and then immediately retreat. As for the Ice Moon Empire, although they are a bit stronger than the Ottoman Empire, the Ice God Tower, the large number of mages, and the cold weather in the North. If the Huarong Empire in the South wants to break through the Ice Moon Empire, they will have to pay the greatest price. From a commercial point of view, the current situation is very delicate. If I were Emperor Hua Tian. After the peace talks, I would use the power of the entire country to quickly pacify the Kiru Empire and use all the resources to develop my military. Then, I would declare war on Auland and use the mountains as a barrier to block the Langmu Empire. At that time, with Prince Rong's thunderous methods, as long as the main forces of the two countries are defeated, the unification of the continent will be just around the corner. Although destroying the Kiru Empire is a risky move. However, I really admire Prince Rong's courage and ability. The Huarong Empire has to pay a much smaller price than I expected. I have thought of many ways to deal with this, but the biggest problem is that we are unable to grasp the true situation within the Huarong Empire and make corresponding preparations. "
Nian Bing nodded and said, "You are right. This is the most important problem right now. I have also thought about it carefully. If the Huarong Empire wants to completely take over the Kiru Empire, it will take at least two years. Within these two years, you will be able to do many things. Just as you said, whether it is the Ottoman Empire or the Langmu Empire, what they lack the most is information on the Huarong Empire. When the three countries join forces, Auland and Langmu will be able to gather their armies at the border. If that is the case, it will not be easy for the Huarong Empire to attack. As such, I hope that after this peace talk, we will join forces with Langmu but will not send troops to attack the Huarong Empire. The Langmu Empire is most afraid that the Huarong Empire will use Auland as a springboard to attack them from the plains. If that is the case, the Huarong Empire's powerful cavalry will not be something they can defend against. Using this point, you can request large amounts of resources from the Langmu Empire to build fortifications at the border with the Huarong Empire. Before coming here, I looked at the map carefully. Although there are no large mountain ranges at the border between Auland and the Kiru Empire, there are still some small mountains. Using the mountains to defend is the best choice. If we build more forts and help each other, it will not be easy for the Huarong Empire to break through. Although the Ice Moon Empire does not have as many resources as the Langmu Empire, they produce all kinds of ores and are best at forging equipment. In terms of equipment, they can provide you with more. Within two years, as long as you can build a solid defensive line at Auland, you will definitely be able to deter the Huarong Empire from taking risks. "
Luo Rou laughed lightly and said, "You still say that your intelligence is not as good as mine? What you are thinking is exactly what I am thinking. This is also the best method I can think of. The Langmu Empire will naturally give in. With you on the Ice Moon Empire's side, there shouldn't be any problems. However, the Huarong Empire's Prime Minister Su Yue is famous for his intelligence and is proficient in sophistry. In addition to Prince Rong's two super cavalry regiments, I'm afraid … "
Nian Bing said, "If you can know the movements of the Huarong Empire's army in advance, how confident are you in being able to defend it?"
Luo Rou looked at Nianbing in surprise, "At least 70%. As long as the Langmu Empire cooperates well, it can even be as high as 80% or 90%. In war, intelligence is the most important thing. If we can grasp the movements of the local army and make good use of it, even if our country is weak in the future, our chances will be much higher. Nian Bing, I don't understand. Why do you seem to want to deal with the Huarong Empire? Didn't you just admit that you are from the Rong Family? "
Nian Bing sighed softly and said, "The situation on the continent has nothing to do with me. I only like to live a free life. However, my family and friends have no choice but to be dragged into this. If I told you that I decided to help you because of Duke Bluefeather and my godmother Yu Ruyan, would you find it strange? "
Luo Rou shook her head and said, "I won't. I heard from Auntie that you are not only doing this for them, but also for Feng Nu and Lan Chen. Nian Bing, I finally understand what kind of person you are. However, I believe that you are not helping me unconditionally. Otherwise, you can say these words in front of Auntie Yu Ruyan. If you have any request, just say it. But for the sake of the Ottoman Empire, you have to show me proof that I can trust. "
Nian Bing nodded and said, "Yes, I do have a request. This request may be a bit difficult for you, but I can promise you that as long as you are alive, I will not do anything to harm the Ottoman Empire."
Luo Rou said, "I believe that. For the sake of Auntie Yu's family, you will not do that. What is your request? "
Nian Bing's eyes flashed, "I want to ask you to insert my people into the Ottoman Empire's political circle and let them gradually occupy important positions. Of course, they will fully support you in all aspects. Unless something big happens, I will not use them. "
"What did you say?" Even though Luo Rou had thought of many possibilities, she did not expect Nian Bing to actually make such a request. She looked at Nian Bing in shock, "You want to control the Ottoman Empire?"
Nian Bing said calmly, "In a sense, yes. However, I do not want to harm anyone in the Ottoman Empire. I only want to leave a way out for my family. This is also why I am willing to take such a huge risk and help the Ice Moon Empire, and do things that are detrimental to the Huarong Empire. "
Luo Rou took a deep breath, "Nian Bing, do you know? If it wasn't for what you said before, I would really think that you are an ambitious person. Unfortunately, you are not. "
Nian Bing smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment. Power is like floating clouds to me. I only want to protect my family and friends, so that they will always have a way out. Actually, in the next year, I'm afraid that there will be a huge change in our world. As for the extent of the change, it is hard to say. Perhaps, one day, all the countries on the continent will have to join forces. However, I really don't want to see that day come. Rou 'er, are you willing to help me? Whether it is for Auland or for Auntie Yu's family. "
