Ice Empress is too lazy to move now. She is really tired. Only then did she realize that she was so tired when she took the initiative. She really didn't know why this guy kept acting like a normal person, but it didn't matter. She was angry anyway. Humph, she also deliberately robbed him, right? She just carried him away, right? In the end, she was the one who could really eat him.
As she thought about it, Ice Empress felt better inexplicably. She reached out to grab the pillow Ming had slept on, hugged it tightly in her arms, smelled the familiar and reassuring scent, and soon fell asleep again. Kong Ming'an looked at Ice Empress who fell asleep instantly, with a hint of helplessness on her face.
Standing up, Kong Ming'an dressed neatly and left the room gently. He looked at the time and Kong Ming'an was about to go find Xiao Hongchen to see what he had achieved during this period. However, before he had gone far, the first person who came to the door was one of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy's leading teachers, Elder Ma, "Mr. Kong Xiao."
Elder Ma's attitude was extremely respectful and he said directly, "The discussion meeting is about to begin. Miss Meng asked me to inform you."
.
"Meeting?"
"It's a meeting with the Star Luo Empire."
Pushing open the door of the conference room, Kong Ming'an walked behind Elder Ma and entered the conference hall casually. As soon as he entered, the conversation in the conference room fell silent. Lines of sight came together, and most of them fell on Elder Ma who was in front of him to attract firepower. Part of it fell on him. Kong Ming'an's face was as usual, and his eyes swept the whole place casually. On the left side, sitting in the main seat was a girl with dark purple hair. Behind her, several officials and the old man were sitting at attention. Their eyes were slightly scrutinizing. On the right side, they looked more familiar. Several Sun Moon people they had met several times. Rank 9 Soul Engineer of Hall of Worship, Miss Meng sitting behind him, and Princess Highness who came to watch the fun,--
With many eyes gathering on his body, Kong Ming'an said nothing, and casually walked to the empty seat in the back row of Sun Moon's side and sat down, with a relaxed posture, as if he was here to watch the excitement.
Everyone withdrew their gaze slightly and no longer paid too much attention to Kong Ming'an. After all, he looked too young and didn't look like he could take charge. I think he was just here to listen.
As soon as Kong Ming'an sat down, Xu Tianzhen on the side moved his chair and prepared to come over. However, Meng Hongchen sitting in front stopped him with a look and curled his lips. Xu Tianzhen reluctantly sat upright, but he was still moving the stool quietly.
Kong Ming'an raised his eyes and glanced at the dark purple-haired girl in the opponent's seat, and recognized the opponent's identity, Star Luo Princess, Xu Jiujiu.
Not long ago, during the attack and murder incident, this person was one of the bystanders. Unexpectedly, he met him again here.
Without pausing his gaze, Kong Ming'an retracted his gaze, lowered his eyelids slightly, and focused on the "Ling Shu Network" interface in front of him. Not long ago, he had been pulled into a temporarily created group chat, in which all important members of Sun Moon's side were present.
"Meng Hongchen": Everyone is here and the meeting can start.
When the message was sent, Elder Ma, who was sitting in the main seat and was being used to attract firepower, straightened up slightly, then faced Star Luo Empire's side and said in a deep voice, "Since both parties are here, let's start the meeting."
Opposite me, Xu Jiujiu nodded slightly, adjusted her breathing slightly, and said in a dignified manner, "I invite you all to come here today. The matter to be discussed is related to whether Star Luo Empire and Sun Moon Empire can establish a mutually beneficial cooperative relationship..."
Xu Jiujiu began to explain Star Luo Empire's intentions and preliminary ideas. Her voice was clear and coherent. Her voice was the only one echoing in the conference hall. Sun Moon everyone listened in silence, with not much emotion visible on their faces. After a long time, Xu Jiujiu finished speaking and waited quietly for a response, but his heart was inevitably uneasy.
This cooperation discussion has actually been planned for a long time, but at the beginning Star Luo Empire only had a tentative attitude and was not as serious about it as this time.
There is no way, Douluo Continent's recent situation has changed too fast. The stable situation that has been maintained for thousands of years has suddenly changed. Today's Star Luo Empire looks calm, but in fact it looks like it is besieged on all sides. Before, it was due to the sense of oppression brought by the three combined forces of the Body Sect, Mingmeng Chamber of Commerce, and Heaven Dou Empire. As time goes by, although it seems that there is nothing much to do for the time being, in order to prevent problems before they happen, Star Luo Empire decided to find reliable allies in advance. On the Douluo Continent, there are only three choices for allies. One is Shrek Academy. But unfortunately, Shrek itself has been in trouble some time ago and has always claimed not to interfere in imperial affairs, so it can only Exclude, secondly, Dou Ling Empire, although it is the weakest among the three countries, but its foundation is still there. Unfortunately, the other party has an ambiguous attitude and clearly stated its neutrality, as if it does not want to help anyone. This way is not possible. The third one is Sun Moon Empire. In the eyes of ordinary people, the cooperation between the Star Luo Empire and Sun Moon is nothing short of a fantasy. The two countries have deep resentments. However, for the high-level officials In other words, hatred is never an insurmountable obstacle. In the eyes of the emperor, the sacrifice of border soldiers is more of a normal loss of national power and a bargaining chip. If Sun Moon is weak in the future, this hatred will be an excellent excuse for the Star Luo Empire to seize profits. But if Sun Moon shows strong potential and value, then the so-called hatred can naturally be shelved and turned into a possibility of transaction.
Previously, Star Luo Empire's intention to cooperate was not particularly strong, and was more out of a conventional diplomatic strategy to disperse pressure. However, Sun Moon Empire suddenly closed the country in the past few years, allowing Star Luo Empire to see potential profit space. For the sake of profit, and also to gather intelligence, this meeting was facilitated.
However, Mingdou Mountain Range's attack on Shrek the day before yesterday completely reversed the situation. Not only did it fail to deal with a future threat in a subtle way, but it actually offended Shrek. No allies were found, but there were many possible enemies. This made Star Luo Empire pay more attention to this meeting. Before coming, Xu Jiawei had specifically told him that even if the business could not be concluded, he must leave a good impression and not make new enemies. By the way, he could also talk about the truce and establishment of diplomatic relations.
However, at this moment, looking at the silence of everyone on the opposite side, the terrifyingly calm Sun Moon crowd, Xu Jiujiu felt uneasy. They didn't even talk to each other? Not a word?
Xu Jiujiu felt an inexplicable uneasiness.
However, what she didn't know was that everyone's so-called silence was actually just that they focused all their attention on the group chat and had no time to pay attention to anything else.
"Elder Ma": Miss Meng, how do you think we should respond?
"Meng Hongchen": The other party does have the intention to cooperate, and it is more urgent than expected.
"Xu Tianzhen": Do you really want to cooperate with the Star Luo Empire?
"Meng Hongchen": At this moment, they had just offended Shrek, and there was a certain gap between the royal family and White Tiger Duke's Mansion because of this matter. Under internal and external pressure, seeking external cooperation was an inevitable choice.
