Tuoba Rui only let go of Hua Ruge after a while, and once again planted a heavy kiss on her forehead.
Hua Ruge could not help but laugh: "Alright, think of a way to deal with the upcoming trouble."
This time, not only did they break off all relations with Cang Lan, the emperor would also not let them off when the eunuch returned.
Tuoba Rui caressed her hair and said: "Wait for me, we will go back to eat breakfast later."
Hua Ruge nodded obediently.
The moment he turned around, the aura around him suddenly became cold, his sharp eyes swept across Mu Zixi, and finally fixed onto the face of the bearded envoy from Cang Lan.
Mu Zixi was so frightened that her face turned pale, she took a small step back, allowing the fear in her heart to dissipate.
"This King said that he would take your people and leave this morning. Could it be that he has fallen for this land? This King will bury all of you here?" Tuoba Rui's voice was ice-cold, not one bit like she was joking.
The big bearded representative who came from Cang Lan, was someone who had seen a lot of things, but facing Tuoba Rui, he was drenched in cold sweat. When the wind blew, he felt extremely cold.
"Let's go, we're leaving now." The envoy said, then signaled Mu Zixi to leave quickly.
Mu Zixi stood there motionlessly, staring at Tuoba Rui, he mustered up his courage and asked: "Your Highness doesn't have any good impression of me?"
"Nope." Tuoba Rui answered straightforwardly.
"Then what did you say it was because you like my cooking?" Mu Zixi asked, not giving up.
She had met many young elites before, but there had never been a man who had the bearing and charisma of Tuoba Rui. If she could, staying by the side of such an outstanding man was what she hoped for.
"Xiao Ge likes it. If you stay and cook, This King will consider taking you in." Tuoba Rui said calmly.
"Wh ?" "What?" Mu Zixi could not believe his own ears.
He was so satisfied with her culinary skills, not because he liked to eat, but because Hua Ruge liked to eat?
How much did he like that woman?
She felt like her brain was about to explode.
"You ? "You ?" Mu Zixi was so angry that his face turned green, but he could not utter a complete sentence.
She felt that she had received a great humiliation. Finally, under the urging of the emissary, she left in shame. Before she left, she angrily said, "You will definitely regret it."
Hua Ruge looked at her leaving figure and rolled his eyes. Why would there be such a bored person in this world?
Tuoba Rui embraced her tightly and said indifferently: "The one who will regret will definitely be her."
"What?"
"At the latest half a year, she will regret not being your cook in the mansion." Tuoba Rui added.
Hua Ruge thought for a bit, there was indeed a possibility, although Da Yu were split into three parts, but the strength of the nation was strong, the fighting strength of the army was strong, wanting to take over the Cang Lan was only a matter of time.
When the time came, a princess of a fallen country would be inferior to a chef, at least the latter wouldn't have to worry about losing her head.
"What are you going to do next?" Do you really want to fight? " Hua Ruge asked.
Tuoba Rui shook his head: "I'll go back on my word."
"No compensation?"
Tuoba Rui nodded. "No need."
"Fine, they won't be able to give it to you anyway." Hua Ruge agreed.
"I want their city and their land." Tuoba Rui said with an aggressive look in his eyes.
Hua Ruge looked up at him. "You want to fight?"
"I am not interested in territorial expansion, but if they provoke me, they will have to pay the price." Tuoba Rui said coldly.
Hua Ruge considered for a moment before replying, "If sending out troops will wear us down, and if the old emperor stares at us like a tiger eyeing its prey, once he turns his head and bites us, these two battlefields won't be much fun."
"Don't worry, the army won't go any deeper. I only want the twelve cities northwest of Cang Lan." Tuoba Rui explained to her.
"What do the 12 cities say?" Hua Ruge asked again.
"The twelve northern cities of the Cang Lan are easy to defend and hard to attack. In the future, we will definitely be facing the last line of defense for the Da Yu, but behind the twelve cities, it is very easy to succeed."
"Occupying Cang Lan is inevitable, with Jun Tianxia's ambition, he definitely won't satisfy a single Cang Lan. Once he recovers, the next person he wants to fight is Da Zheng. If we take over the twelve cities that are easy to defend and hard to attack, then his army will have a hard time breaking through this line of defense." Tuoba Rui said.
Hua Ruge was determined to conquer the world, so in the future, it would be difficult to escape from a battle between the Da Yu and the Great Zheng. At that time, even if and himself were there, it would be very difficult to win.
If you can do it now, do it now.
"What do you need me to do?" Hua Ruge asked.
"You just need to stay in the mansion and wait for me to come back." Tuoba Rui pinched her nose.
Hua Ruge blinked his eyes and said: "Bring me along then, maybe I can help you then."
"This time, I have to make an urgent march. I have to hurry up and fight. I'm too tired, so I'm not suitable for you." Tuoba Rui coaxed.
Hua Ruge still had a face full of unhappiness.
"Be obedient, you're the one overseeing the Northwest so that I can be at ease and go to the front lines to fight." Tuoba Rui said again.
Hua Ruge thought that it was reasonable, and nodded: "Alright, I'll take care of the house for you."
"Little Ge, be good." Tuoba Rui rubbed her little head.
Hua Ruge laughed foolishly.
In the afternoon, Tuoba Rui readied his troops for battle, because he had to take Cang Lan by surprise, he could not lead too many troops. The vanguard force brought along 3000 barbarians and 50,000 cavalry, and the second batch followed a hundred thousand infantry, waiting to attack and take over the city.
On the other hand, Hua Ruge headed straight into Battle King Manor's study room to help with various matters.
She was not used to suddenly managing one-third of the land and cities, and there were a lot of things that she didn't know how to handle.
Fortunately, Tuoba Rui still had officials to negotiate with him, and he was extremely smart, so he could quickly settle the matter in an orderly manner.
Tuoba Rui's cavalry was extremely fast, and most of Cang Lan's troops were used on the battlefield of Da Yu. Before they even had the chance to defend Daozheng, Tuoba Rui's cavalry had already gone down two cities in one day.
The Cang Lan after that were even more so filled with panic, Tuoba Rui's army was simply like a hot knife through butter.
At the same time, Mao Jun and Yan Zixing, who were planning to rebel, were not idle either. One of them was a general defending the eastern border while the other one was a general guarding the eastern border.
After planning to turn to Tuoba Rui and rebel, he brought his troops back to the east side. His goal was to gain control of more than a dozen cities to the east.
Mao Jun was born in a family of civil servants who specialized in handling government affairs. The two of them cooperated extremely well, the speed at which they took down the city was much faster than Tuoba Rui's.
By the time Hua Ruge found out, half of the eastern city had already fallen into their hands, she exclaimed in shock at their speed, and at the same time, lamented that there was no other way out.2
