Princess Mo Ling is not only beautiful, intelligent and talented, but also proficient in music and music, and has exquisite piano skills. She showed the profound national cultural heritage of the Mo people to everyone in Beiming, which not only impressed the courtiers who despised the Mo people, but even Emperor Xuanwu couldn't help but be deeply attracted to her.

She has performed a number of popular songs, one of which is her self-created "Guan Shanyue", which perfectly integrates the culture of Saibei and the Central Plains, which not only reflects the pride and freedom of Saibei, but also reflects the graceful beauty of the Central Plains. This song not only set off a craze in Beiming, but also made Emperor Xuanwu's heart flutter and unforgettable for a long time.

One is a powerful king, the other is a beautiful and moving princess, and the two quickly fall in love and cannot extricate themselves. Emperor Xuanwu ignored the advice of the courtiers, made exceptions for Princess Moling many times, and even spent a lot of money to win a smile from the beauties, and found the best luthier in the world to guide him, personally selected materials, polished, and created a good jade qin for her.

This supreme honor, even Empress Renzhao, who crowned the six palaces, failed to score three points, which made the beauties of the harem blush.

The officials saw it in their eyes and knew that Emperor Xuanwu had plans to marry the Mo people. The two are talented and beautiful, which should be a good story, but behind them are the interests of the two nations. The marriage between the two ethnic groups is equivalent to announcing to the world that Beiming wants to establish diplomatic relations with the Mo people, in other words, Beiming is willing to protect the Mo people and become the backer of the Mo people. If the northern barbarians attack the Mo people in the future, Beiming will have to send troops to help, so that Beiming's military strength will be weakened in disguise, and if the other three countries take advantage of the situation to besiege Beiming, the consequences will be unimaginable.

All of a sudden, the civil and military officials were worried, and there was a lot of discussion in the world. The ministers were helpless, knowing that Emperor Xuanwu and Empress Renzhao had a deep relationship, and had always been willing to listen to Empress Renzhao's words, so they had to ask Empress Renzhao for help and ask her to come forward to persuade Emperor Xuanwu.

Since Empress Renzhao gave birth to Rong Huan, her body has not been as good as before. Since she took charge of the harem, she has been managing everything in the harem, and she has long been exhausted, plus the harem concubines are not fuel-efficient lamps, and they are intriguing day by day.

Despite this, for Empress Renzhao, who has always loved Emperor Xuanwu deeply, she is still happy to be his wife, give birth to children for him, and solve problems. What's more, over the years, Emperor Xuanwu's harem has never lacked beauties, but no matter which concubine is favored, it can't shake the status of Empress Renzhao, Emperor Xuanwu has always loved her, which makes Empress Renzhao's heart extremely moved, and she has strengthened the relationship with Emperor Xuanwu.

After she heard the request of the ministers, she was moved by affection, understood it with reason, and repeatedly advised Emperor Xuanwu, but Emperor Xuanwu was not moved at all as if he had an iron heart.

Soon after, Xuanwu Dili overrode public opinion and insisted on agreeing to exchange trade with the Mo people, establish a friendly state, and officially proposed to the Mo people to marry Princess Mo Ling as a concubine.

Emperor Xuanwu's attitude of ignoring it made Empress Renzhao deeply shocked, and therefore planted a seed of depression in her heart.

After Princess Moling entered the palace, she was canonized as a concubine by Emperor Xuanwu, and with the right to manage the six palaces, she was the same as the deputy queen. For more than a year, she has not only been alone in the holy favor, but Emperor Xuanwu has been even more obedient to her, accompanying her every day, and she has been in the limelight for a while.

At first, Empress Renzhao thought that Emperor Xuanwu was fond of Concubine Ling in order to enhance the diplomatic relations between the two countries, just like other concubines in the harem, just a pawn used to balance the government and the opposition.

But when she saw Emperor Xuanwu's eyes looking at Mo Ling, she realized that this Concubine Ling was different from those warblers and Yanyan in the harem, and Emperor Xuanwu's eyes full of love were something she had never seen before.

In front of Concubine Ling, Emperor Xuanwu had a real smile on his face, his eyes were burning, and he didn't have half of the emperor's shelf at all, they poured tea and gambling books, stroked the piano and made poems, like a pair of fairy couples, envious of others and deeply pierced Empress Renzhao's heart.

She couldn't help but recall the bits and pieces between herself and Emperor Xuanwu, and found that the two lovers she thought were happy was just respectful of each other.

Illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread. The seeds in Empress Renzhao's heart finally grew into a towering tree, and she understood that the life she hoped to be inseparable from Emperor Xuanwu would be nothing more than her wishful thinking in the end.

In the second year after Princess Moling entered the palace, Empress Renzhao became ill due to overwork and excessive worry, and she couldn't afford to be sick since then.

The harem concubines took turns to serve the sick, and the other concubines saw that Queen Renzhao was terminally ill, and most of them were perfunctory, but Concubine Ling, every time she served the sick, she served very hard, and from time to time told some interesting stories for Queen Renzhao to relieve her mood.

Empress Renzhao looked at the beautiful and honest woman in front of her, and she finally understood why Emperor Xuanwu loved her so much.

Recalling that back then, she loved freedom, but she was willing to be trapped in this palace wall for the sake of Emperor Xuanwu; Once upon a time, she was as straightforward as Concubine Ling, but she had to learn to deceive herself in this heavy palace. How could she not understand that if it weren't for her father's heavy army and being able to help Emperor Xuanwu win the heir, how could Emperor Xuanwu meet her in the garden so coincidentally? How could he fall in love with her at first sight and not marry her? And if her father wasn't worried about the royal family's power over the Xiao family, how could he marry her to Emperor Xuanwu and help him ascend to this supreme position? Over the years, the filial piety of fathers and daughters, and the harmony between husband and wife are like a joke, and she is just a victim of this political marriage in her life.

The reason why Emperor Xuanwu has loved her so much over the years is just because he is afraid of the military power in his father's hands; 's father greeted her with warmth, just wanting her to consolidate her power for the Xiao family. She has been pretending to be confused all her life, thinking that by trapping herself in a cage of fantasy, she can live as if she doesn't know anything......

It turned out that all this was just her own wishful thinking.

Empress Renzhao's illness is getting worse day by day, like a withered peony flower, seeing her gradually withering from glamour. Seeing this, the eldest princess planned to inform Xiao Yuchuan, who was stationed at the border pass, but was unexpectedly stopped by Empress Renzhao. She knew that as soon as she died, Xiao Yuchuan would definitely let Emperor Xuanwu immediately canonize Rong Wei as the crown prince, and the eldest princess would become a pawn in a political marriage like her. She has been trapped by this palace wall all her life, and she doesn't want her children to become victims of the imperial power like herself.

Emperor Xuanwu looked for medical advice everywhere after Empress Renzhao fell ill, and also issued an edict to repair nearly 100 ancient temples in Beiming to pray for the queen, and the world has praised Emperor Xuanwu's love for Empress Renzhao as deep as the sea.

Mo Ling saw the unwillingness of some concubines, and no longer let other concubines serve the sick during this time, and personally served by the side of Empress Renzhao, serving her medicine and water, and taking care of her meticulously. In order to make her happy, he also told her about Emperor Xuanwu seeking medical advice for her and repairing the ancient temple to pray for blessings.

Empress Renzhao only smiled faintly after hearing this, she took Mo Ling's hand, looked at her with complicated eyes for a long time, and then said softly: "You have to remember that in this palace, retreat is advance, and you can always rely on yourself...... Remember, the heart of the emperor, the needle of the sea...... Don't ...... Too obsessed ......"

I didn't think about it, that day was the last time Mo Ling saw Empress Renzhao, and Empress Renzhao couldn't survive that snowy night after all.
