"Sit." Mu Yunmeng spoke softly, pointed to the chair next to her, and said, "I have something to ask of you."
"Begging me?" Ran Yunhao immediately smiled mockingly after hearing Mu Yunmeng say such words. Mu Yunmeng came to him today, did he ask him or force him? "These two words, I can't
I really can’t bear it. If you have anything to say, just say it.”
Ran Yunhao brushed his clothes and sat down, looking at Mu Yunmeng with cold eyes, cautiously. He never thought that Mu Yunmeng would find him one day, never thought about it.
"Look what the prince said." Mu Yunmeng smiled and followed Ran Yunhao's words. "I am just a commoner, who can't compare to the prince of Nanjun. So even if he wants to ask the prince for something, he should not
I think something is wrong."
"Mu Yunmeng, what on earth do you want to say?" Ran Yunhao felt more and more scared as he listened to Mu Yunmeng's flattering words. Is Mu Yunmeng the kind of person who praises and flatters others for no reason? What's more, he is still a member of the palace.
?!
"Since the prince is so anxious, I will just say it." Mu Yunmeng curled his lips, feeling bored with Ran Yunhao's impatience. Withdrawing his feet, Mu Yunmeng sat up straight and looked at Ran Yunhao with burning eyes.
, the two looked at each other. Mu Yunmeng saw that although Ran Yunhao was a little nervous, he was not afraid. He smiled evilly and said: "I want to cooperate with the prince and do something."
"Cooperation?" Ran Yunhao's heart sank suddenly when he heard what Mu Yunmeng said. Mu Yunmeng is now in Xuanxuan Kingdom and in the capital. What else can he do? It's just to deal with the emperor, isn't it? "This matter
I'm afraid I can't help you, right?" Ran Yunhao asked calmly.
"No one can help me with this matter except the prince." Mu Yunmeng frowned and said with a rather embarrassed expression: "The prince didn't even ask me what the matter was, and just refused. He was really merciless.
Na."
Ran Yunhao sighed patiently and continued to sit there, looking at Mu Yunmeng intently, listening to what he wanted to say next.
"Your Majesty, there is actually something that I have been unable to figure out." Mu Yunmeng crossed his arms over his chest, his eyes flickered, and asked in confusion: "Even if I was demoted from the palace back then, in my opinion, you are no better than me."
Ran Yunpo is poor, but she also has the capital to compete with him for the throne. Although Concubine Li died early, the late emperor never stopped paying attention to you. Why did you give up those who secretly supported you and instead joined Ran Yunpo?
My subordinates, do something for him? Could it be that this throne is not attractive to you at all, my lord?"
"No." Ran Yunhao replied immediately without even thinking about it: "I have never had the idea of becoming an emperor."
"He is really a loyal slave." Mu Yunmeng raised his eyebrows and said jokingly: "Ran Yunpo is lucky to have a talent like you by his side. But if I say today that I want the prince to be the emperor, the prince
...what will we do?”
As soon as Mu Yunmeng finished speaking, Ran Yunhao suddenly stood up from the chair, looked at Mu Yunmeng in disbelief, and said nothing for a long time.
The meaning of Mu Yunmeng's words could not be more obvious. He wanted him to help him kill Ran Yunpo?!
"I can't help you with this matter." After Ran Yunhao came to his senses, he said to Mu Yunmeng firmly: "You should find someone else."
After saying that, Ran Yunhao turned around and wanted to leave.
"Why is the prince so anxious? I haven't finished speaking yet." Mu Yunmeng sat there calmly, looked at Ran Yunhao, and said faintly: "If the prince doesn't want to kill the emperor, then why don't you help me kill Xi Honglei?"
I think this job should be much simpler than the one just now, right?"
"Are you really going to kill Xi Honglei?" Ran Yunhao stopped, turned around slowly, and asked in disbelief. Ran Yunhao had heard too much about what happened between Xi Honglei and Mu Yunmeng. He had heard too much.
He had personally heard Xi Honglei express his determination to kill Mu Yunmeng, but in his heart, Ran Yunhao had never really believed it.
"Does the prince still not know about the grudge between me and her?" Mu Yunmeng looked at Ran Yunhao in surprise and said, "I thought the prince had already listened to her."
Ran Yunhao thought for a while, then turned around and sat on the chair he was on. Looking at Mu Yunmeng deeply, Ran Yunhao pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Are you really willing to kill her?"
"What's the reluctance?" Mu Yunmeng asked without answering.
"I thought you loved her."
"Love?" Mu Yunmeng said disapprovingly: "The prince is not so naive as to think that I can give up my future for a woman, right? Although she gave me a son, the world is so big that she can't give up my son.
There are so many women out there, why should I cling to her. What’s more, she is an uneasy woman. Staying by my side will only cause more trouble, and it’s not worth it.”
"Then why did you take her away back then?" Ran Yunhao asked, "You could have killed her if you wanted to, so why wait until now? Even if you want to kill her now, you don't need anyone else to intervene, right?"
"This is where I miscalculated back then." Mu Yunmeng said regretfully: "The pet that I thought I could hold tightly in my hands and let myself do whatever I wanted suddenly stopped listening to me. Prince, do you understand this feeling?
Have you passed?"
Mu Yunmeng paused for a moment and continued: "None of us thought about Xi Yuanshan's death. I don't think even the prince, you or Ran Yunpo thought that Xi Yuanshan would die in the hands of his daughter.
Even if Xi Honglei was taken away by me back then, Xi Yuan Shan's power in the court and the relationship between the Queen Mother and him should not be underestimated. Ran Yunpo would never dare to kill him easily. If Xi Yuan Shan did not die,
, the current Xi Mansion may still have the surname Shen. The decline of the Xi family has also made Xi Honglei lose some of its use value. In addition, she really gives me a headache. Keeping such a smart woman by my side, I will sleep
She will not be safe. As for what the prince said, I can kill her myself. What I want to tell the prince is that I was stabbed by her last time and I haven’t recovered yet. If possible, I certainly don’t want to risk it myself.
It’s risky to do this.”
"So you decided to target me?" Ran Yunhao looked at Mu Yunmeng with a smile and asked: "Then tell me, why should I agree to help you? In addition to the throne you mentioned, I
What other benefits are there?”
"The biggest benefit that the prince can get is that he can save his own life." Mu Yunmeng said with a half-smile: "Your current martial arts may not be able to defeat Xi Honglei. If I want to kill you, there is no reason or excuse.
There are more than one or two. You work for Ran Yunpo, but he has no ability to protect you. The battle between Ran Yunpo and I started many years ago. Who can lose and who can win? Even if the prince does not say it, he can
You should also know in your heart. Once Ran Yunpo is defeated and dies, do you princes and ministers still have a chance to survive? If you don't care for yourself, heaven and earth will destroy you. My lord, don't rush to reject my words, think carefully about what you can do if you join forces with me.
It’s no good, and then it’s not too late to tell me your answer, isn’t it?”
Mu Yunmeng used both soft and hard tactics, which made Ran Yunhao feel quite unhappy. But Mu Yunmeng's next words instantly turned Ran Yunhao's complicated and uncomfortable emotions into panic.
"And even if the prince doesn't kill Xi Honglei, if she knows something, she will definitely kill you. Does the prince think what I said is right?"
Mu Yunmeng's words made Ran Yunhao suddenly startled. He looked sharply at Mu Yunmeng and saw Mu Yunmeng's calm expression. Ran Yunhao's heart was completely confused.
What did Mu Yunmeng know? What did he mean by saying this? Did he come to me today to test him, or did he really want to join forces with me and let him kill Xi Honglei?
As Mu Yunmeng said, Xi Honglei is indeed not an easy woman to deal with. However, since Mu Yunmeng did not do that thing, then what is the conflict and estrangement between the two of them? It is Mu Yunmeng's ambition.
Is he really too big to keep Xi Honglei, a woman who knows so many of his secrets?
"Your Majesty, it's just a matter of one sentence whether you agree or not. Just tell me when you have thought about it. It's still a long time before dark. How about we talk slowly and carefully?"
Ran Yunhao sighed softly and leaned back on the chair. It was easy for him to enter this room today, but difficult to get out. Judging from what Mu Yunmeng said, I am afraid that if he does not give a satisfactory answer today, he will be safe.
It is impossible to leave.
"This is not a trivial matter. I have to think carefully about it. If I don't see anyone for a whole day, someone will notice that something is wrong." Ran Yunhao said with a solemn expression. Every word was spoken after careful consideration.
He said it out loud. "I can't stay here for too long. I will contact you when I think about it, or you can come to my house to find me."
"If the prince sets a trap in the house, what should I do?" Mu Yunmeng asked with a sneer.
"How can I have the courage?" Ran Yunhao lowered his attitude and said: "Don't you know whether the people in my hands have that ability? It only takes one day and I will give you an answer tomorrow."
After Ran Yunhao finished speaking, and seeing that Mu Yunmeng didn't stop him anymore, he walked slowly towards the door. After walking out of the door and out of Mu Yunmeng's sight, Ran Yunhao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He who was supposed to come could not escape. But why was it Mu Yunmeng who found him...?
Ran Yunhao left the restaurant with a frown on his face and walked towards the palace in a distracted manner. Mu Yunmeng leaned against the window frame, narrowed his eyes and looked at Ran Yunhao's retreating figure, and laughed coldly.
He gave me one day. And he also felt that the time in this day was a little short.
He knew best what Ran Yunhao had done. After a day of internal struggle and suffering, Mu Yunmeng felt that it was not enough for Ran Yunhao. But seeing how sure Ran Yunhao said it, Mu Yunmeng thought, maybe he had already thought about it in his heart
