Chapter 423 Great changes in Hehuang
However, Ru Lan usually looked happy, and now her somewhat melancholy expression gave Zhao Xing a different feeling.
"Your Majesty, I know that what I did to my mother is unforgivable, but after all, she did it for me and had no intention of harming Your Majesty. Please forgive her," Ru Lan begged.
After Mo Lan was arrested, Ru Lan learned the cause and effect of the incident.
I have been worried about my mother and asked Minglan about it.
But Minglan told her not to ask Zhao Xing for mercy.
Rulan listened to Minglan's words, but she still felt uneasy.
Madam Wang sent her a letter today. Although she didn't say it clearly, there was a hint of farewell between the lines.
Rulan thought her mother was going to commit suicide, so she quickly sent someone back to find out the news.
As a result, before the news arrived, he was summoned by Zhao Xing.
Facing Zhao Xing's inquiry, she couldn't bear it anymore and asked for mercy for her mother.
Zhao Xing heard this and said: "We will discuss this matter later!"
He said this literally. Ru Lan's melancholy expression had a different flavor, and he wanted to have a taste.
Now that I've said it, I can't taste it.
Ru Lan did not think so much, but thought that Zhao Xing was unwilling to let Madam Wang go, and she shed tears after hearing this.
"Why are you crying? Didn't I say we'll talk about it later, and I didn't say I wouldn't agree." Zhao Xing said while wiping her tears.
He wanted a melancholy Ru Lan, not a sad Ru Lan.
Otherwise, let alone adding interest, it would actually be a bit disappointing.
"Do you agree?" Ru Lan said excitedly.
"I have already said that we will talk about it later. We are not allowed to mention this matter now." Zhao Xing said with a straight face.
Ru Lan opened her mouth when she heard the words, but did not dare to say any more.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late, it's time to have dinner." Shulan said.
"Yeah!"
Zhao Xing nodded and ordered Sanshui to pass on the meal.
…………
Late at night, Zhao Xing was hugging each other, looking very energetic. Shulan and Rulan were tortured a lot, their faces were flushed, there was a trace of satisfaction between their brows, but their spirits were a little tired.
Zhao Xing patted Ru Lan on the back and said, "You can talk now."
"What did Your Majesty ask my concubine to say?" Rulan asked doubtfully.
"Tell me about your mother."
"Huh?" Minglan was startled: "Your Majesty didn't say that in the future..."
At this point, Rulan finally reacted and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty will become a concubine."
"Haha!"
Zhao Xing laughed and said: "Your mother was also deceived, and it didn't lead to a big mistake. I have no intention of pursuing it. But don't tell her yet, so that she can remember it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Rulan said excitedly.
"This is not how you express your gratitude verbally."
Zhao Xing grabbed a handful at the soft spot and whispered in Rulan's ear.
Ru Lan quickly understood what Zhao Xing meant this time and shrank into the quilt.
Shulan, who was sitting on the bed, didn't understand at first, but when she saw Rulan shrinking into the quilt, she also understood, and her face turned redder.
She simply closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
Zhao Xing didn't intend to let her go, so he hugged her and kissed her.
It took a long time to let go of Shulan, whose eyes were blurred, and pressed her shoulder.
Shulan glanced at Zhao Xing charmingly and could only obey.
.........I was quite busy some time ago, but now I rarely have any free time, so Zhao Xing indulged himself a lot.
Except for a few who were pregnant, the rest of the concubines, including Li Yunchu, were favored by Yulu.
Zhao Xing was busy watering the flowers in the harem, but there was no peace everywhere in the world.
In Dali Kingdom, the Yang family's rebellion had been put down, but when the Gao family was suppressing the rebellion, they took those lands as their own. The emperor of Dali had no choice but to reward those lands to the Gao family.
At this point, the power of the Gao family had already surpassed that of the Dali Emperor.
On the Liao side, although the Song Dynasty withdrew its troops, Yelu Yixin did not send troops to annihilate Yelu Chongyuan again.
Firstly, they were worried that the Song Dynasty would send troops again, and secondly, there was a heavy snowfall in the grassland, which made it temporarily unsuitable to send troops.
There is also the most important reason. Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom became a little restless when she saw that Yelu Chongyuan was driven to the grassland.
Empress Dowager Xiao had no choice but to promise Yelu Yixin that when Yelu Chongyuan was destroyed, she would make him regent and co-run the government with her.
But Empress Dowager Xiao knew very well that Yelu Yixin was also an ambitious person. If this was the case, sooner or later their mother and son would become puppets.

There is not much time left for her now, so naturally she cannot wait any longer.
There was internal fighting on the Liao side, while Xixia was watching a show on the other side.
Although Xixia did not continue to advance troops on the plateau, they did not retreat either. They planned to wait for the coming spring to wipe out Tibet in one fell swoop.
However, at this time, Dong Fei, the new leader of the Kusiluo tribe, personally led tens of thousands of soldiers and horses into Hehuang to deal with the Tubo people in Hehuang at the request of the Hehuang Qiang people.
At first, Xixia wanted to stop it, but after Li Liangzuo thought about it carefully, he decided to stand still.
If the Qiang people really take refuge in the Xixia tribe, it will indeed have a great impact on Xixia's annexation of the plateau in the coming year.
But Li Liangzuo knew that it was impossible for the Qiang people to really take refuge in the Xisiluo tribe.
After all, being someone else's little brother is not as comfortable as being the master of one's own affairs.
The most important thing is that Li Liangzuo also has hidden secrets among the Qiang people, and he knows that the Qiang people are just pretending to take refuge.
In fact, after the Song Dynasty withdrew its troops, Li Liangzuo learned that the Qiang people were preparing to attract foreign aid, and he once thought of using hidden guidance to ask the Qiang people to ask Xixia to send troops for help.
In this way, Xixia can legitimately intervene in the affairs of Hehuang.
But he gave up after some consideration. Fighting on two fronts was a bit difficult for Xixia.
Moreover, although the Song Dynasty retreated, as long as Xixia intervened, Hehuang and Tubo would definitely ask for help from the Song Dynasty.
At this time, Li Liangzuo didn't want to break up with Da Song.
Therefore, Li Liangzuo had no doubts about the Qiang people asking for help from the Zusiluo tribe.
After all, there are only a few people the Qiang people can ask for help from. The Song Dynasty helps Tubo, so it is definitely impossible for the Qiang people to ask for help from the Song Dynasty.
However, the internal affairs of the Liao Kingdom have not yet been settled, and they have no regard for the Hehuang land and will not care about it.
The only people the Qiang people can turn to for help are Xixia and the Xisiluo tribe.
Li Liangzuo was also happy that Zusiluobu agreed. After all, the Qiang people did not really surrender, but only regarded Zusiluobu as a knife.
If Zunsiluo helps the Qiang people, not only will they not get any benefits, but they will waste their troops in vain.
It will be very beneficial for Xixia to occupy the plateau in the coming year.
In order to prevent Tubo from being defeated in Hehuang, the Song Dynasty intervened, and Li Liangzuo directly sent more troops to the city facing the border with the Song Dynasty.
He also condemned the envoys to the Song Dynasty and told the Song Dynasty that neither side should interfere with the affairs of Hehuang.
By the way, I also participated in the Seal Debate Conference held by the Song Dynasty.
Li Liangzuo valued Han people. Even if he underestimated the significance and role of the imperial seal for the Song Dynasty, those Han officials would remind him.
Therefore, he was determined to sabotage this matter. Not only Xixia, but also Liao and Dali also sent envoys to the Song Dynasty to participate in the Seal Debate Conference.
After Zusiluo entered Hehuang, he really defeated the Tubo army in Hehuang and retreated continuously.
But he also suffered a lot. Just when Li Liangzuo was happy, a great change occurred in Hehuang.
