Chapter 316: Chapter 316: Crushing the Tu Country Lord, You’re So Handsome (1)

Qin Imperial Palace, the midnight slaughter a month ago still casts a chill over this Imperial City.

The eunuchs and palace maids have yet to be replenished, leaving the vast Imperial Palace with a lack of liveliness.

Three days ago, the new Emperor ascended the throne.

The seventh Prince, Qin Jinyang, not yet of age, took the throne, while Regent King Qin Jinchen swiftly suppressed all domestic unrest with a firm hand.

It was at this moment that everyone suddenly realized that the previously low-key and weak Prince Xian was actually a silent tiger.

As for why it wasn’t Prince Xian but the seventh Prince who ascended... this question puzzled many, yet Qin Jinchen offered no explanation.

Mu Family, Mu Xiong remains his Eternal Peace Duke, and Mu Qingge is still the young lord yet to inherit the title.

It seemed that everything was as it was before.

Yet, the discerning could see that the Mu Mansion, seemingly without any benefit, was actually the true winner. In Qin Country, the Mu Family was already akin to the Imperial Family, enjoying privileges beyond the usual Imperial status.

For instance, Mu Family members need not kneel before the Emperor.

For instance, Mu Family members could carry weapons into the Imperial Palace at any time without obstruction.

Moreover, the new Emperor specially designated an exquisite palace within the Imperial Palace solely for the use of the Mu Family.

Who would dare express dissatisfaction?

The former Emperor, Crown Prince, and Prince Rui, these formidable figures, had all been dispatched by the Mu Family as they wished. Furthermore, after establishing all of this, the Mu Family did not become arrogant, instead, they remained low-key.

As there was no influence of benefits, the noble families of Qin Country had to quietly retract their ambitions.

Currently, in Luodu, the most talked-about topic is the numerous noblewomen desiring to marry into the Mu Family, to become the lady of Mu Mansion. Mu Qingge, being the sole heir of the Mu Family, had become a highly sought-after figure.

Of course, these matters were blocked by Mu Xiong and Mu Lianrong and did not reach Mu Qingge’s ears.

Summoned at midnight, Mu Qingge and Mu Xiong rode Flame Horses, accompanied by their respective trusted aides, and entered the Imperial Palace unobstructed. Mu Xiong’s expression carried a hint of gravity, while Mu Qingge’s eyes were half-closed, the light in her eyes flowing through the cracks, revealing nothing of her thoughts.

Tu Country has dispatched troops.

This intelligence was received by the grandparents before the imperial decree reached the Mu Mansion.

Moreover, this time Tu Country’s million-strong army, commanded by Crown Prince Helian Zhan, had already entered the Sunset Wilderness, engaging Qin Country in several small-scale battles.

The results... Qin Country was utterly defeated!

These battle reports entered the Imperial Palace, alarming the new Emperor, who was compelled to summon the Regent King and the Mu Family for a strategy meeting overnight.

"Ge’er, this time Tu Country has deployed a million troops, it seems this battle won’t end well," sighed Mu Xiong to Mu Qingge.

Having fought battles all his life, the older he became, the less he wished to return to the battlefield. Not because he was afraid of dying, but because he increasingly wished to avoid seeing young lives extinguished before him.

War is never a game, nor is it child’s play. It affects everything deeply, causing the bloodshed of Qin Country’s soldiers and wounding Qin Country’s roots.

Mu Qingge replied calmly, "Tu Country has long been eyeing Qin Country, so conflict is inevitable. It’s just as well; since they initiated this time, we’ll make them fear us, so they won’t dare easily wage war on Qin Country again." She spoke casually, as if the million-strong army of Tu Country were mere flies to her, easily swatted away.

Mu Xiong’s eyes brightened, turning to her and asking, "Ge’er, have you thought of a solution?"
