Chen Yuan followed Mo Xiao out for a while before he said in a deep voice, "Why do you have to cooperate with him?"

Mo Xiao looked ahead. A group of soldiers were walking past him. After they had all passed, Mo Xiao replied to Chen Yuan: "Because this way, we can minimize our casualties."

Mo Xiao turned his head to look at Chen Yuan: "You have been on the front line for a long time. You know better than me how cruel the battlefield is. These soldiers are all born by their parents, they are all mortals, and they all have relatives to worry about... War is inevitable, but if I can let more soldiers return alive, no matter what it is, I will try my best to do it."

"What's more, with him leading the way, we won't waste more time and manpower on finding the way."

Chen Yuan pursed her lips and looked at Mo Xiao straight as if she was meeting him for the first time.

Mo Xiao didn't notice Chen Yuan's look, but continued, "What's more, the royal court is too far away from the Central Plains. Even if we conquer it, we can't control it for a long time. Tuoba Xuan is originally a member of the royal family. With him coming forward, other old people and the people will be more likely to accept it, which can save a lot of trouble. Another thing is that Tuoba Xuan knows the local people and local customs better than we do, and he knows how to govern this land better. Therefore, Tuoba Xuan is the best candidate."

"When the time comes, we just need to control Tuoba Xuan. If this is successful, it will at least ensure peace on the border between the two countries for a hundred years."

By then, when Mo Chengning succeeds to the throne, he will be able to relax a little and won't have to worry about border affairs.

After listening to Mo Xiao's words, Chen Yuan nodded lightly after a while: "I understand."

Mo Xiao then looked at Chen Yuan and said with a half-smile, "It's rare that you're so obedient this time."

Instead of going against yourself.

Chen Yuan glanced at him and said, "Am I an unreasonable person?"

She always thinks she is reasonable, and she will listen as long as the other party is right.

Hearing this, Mo Xiao sneered, "Are you a reasonable person? Don't you just dislike me? No matter what I do, you can't stand it? But as long as it's your sister who said it, whether it's right or wrong, you think it's the only truth in the world."

Chen Yuan glanced at him and said, "Sister is right."

After saying that, he no longer paid any attention to Mo Xiao and turned away.

Mo Xiao stood there for a while, finally shook his head and prepared to return to his tent.

After walking a few steps, Lu An caught up from not far away and said softly: "Your Majesty, General Chen and his son have arrived and are waiting for Your Majesty in the tent."

General Chen and his son are Chen Yuan’s father and brother.

Before this, they had been guarding the border for many years, and Mo Xiao trusted them very much.

Mo Xiao raised his eyebrows: "You haven't met Chen Yuan yet, but you came to see me first?"

Lu An lowered his head and said softly, "There is a difference between public and private. General Chen will naturally put public first and private second."

As Mo Xiao walked into the tent, he said, "This father and son are much more polite than Chen Yuan."

At least, he, the emperor, was still taken seriously.

Lu An raised his hand and touched his nose, and said secretly in his heart: There are not many people in this world who dare to treat His Majesty like Princess Chen.

Mo Xiao returned to the tent and saw the Chen father and son standing inside waiting for him.

When the Chen family father and son saw him, they immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty!"

Mo Xiao walked past them and helped the man up: "No need to be polite, get up."
