Chapter Eighty-Five: The Piano Breaks Love

Emperor Xuanwu didn't expect Xiao Yuchuan to understand so quickly. After exterminating the Mo tribe, Xiao Yuchuan actually incited the people on the border to create public opinion to build momentum for him, forcing himself to order him to stay in the territory of the Mo tribe to garrison, not only retaining his military power, but also using the Liu clan to calculate himself.

When he was in the Mo Clan, how could the thoughtful Xiao Yuchuan not take someone to search the cellar? Besides, Liu also has a three-year-old son, who has been hiding in a dark cellar for several days, how can he not move?

The Liu family was deliberately let go by Xiao Yuchuan.

Xiao Yuchuan already knew that Emperor Xuanwu had gone around such a big circle to eradicate the Mo clan with his own hands, just to maintain his benevolent image in the eyes of the world, and at the same time, he didn't want Mo Ling to hate him because of this. It's just that he didn't expect that Emperor Xuanwu, such a scheming person, couldn't escape the word "love" after all.

Throughout the ages, love is the most stumbling. Once there is a bond, it is difficult to break free, and it is often a fatal weakness for the superiors. It is where the weakness lies, where the key points are, and any wind and grass may become a fatal blow, and it is impossible to prevent and difficult to resolve.

Xiao Yuchuan, who was furious, naturally left Liu's mouth back and forth, and deliberately revealed some clues, so that Liu's family knew that all this was Emperor Xuanwu's plan.

As Xiao Yuchuan expected, the Liu family went straight to Shangyuan City after leaving the city. Xiao Yuchuan even ordered someone to secretly release the Liu clan along the road, so that the Liu clan could successfully reach Shangyuan City.

Xiao Yuchuan's purpose is to use the mouth of the Liu family to tell the truth to Mo Ling, who knows nothing in the palace, so that the Xuanwu Emperor who is hiding behind his back and controlling everything will be revealed. Mo Ling will definitely not give up after knowing the truth, at least he will break off with Emperor Xuanwu, or at worst, he may do something beyond the norm.

In any case, he can not only completely get rid of Mo Ling, a big confidant, for Rong Huan, but also make Emperor Xuanwu backfire and vent a bad breath for himself and the Xiao family.

Xiao Yuchuan asked to garrison the Mo tribe, ostensibly to prevent another invasion by the northern barbarians, adding an impregnable defense line to the north, but in fact, he wanted to re-cultivate his own power in the north.

How could Emperor Xuanwu not know Xiao Yuchuan's thoughts? It's just that the north is cold and hard, the land is vast and sparsely populated, if Xiao Yuchuan wants to follow the example he did in the south back then, and re-support and cultivate his own power, it is really a bit of a fool's dream. Although Emperor Xuanwu failed to recover Xiao Yuchuan's military power as he wished, leaving him here could not only weaken the strength of the Xiao family, but also deter the northern barbarians, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

But no matter how intriguing they were, the moment Emperor Xuanwu saw the Liu family, he had already realized that he seemed to be a good chess player, but he was still put on a move by Xiao Yuchuan, but unfortunately it was too late to understand.

If he had known earlier that the Mo Clan still had slipped through the net, he would definitely try his best to get rid of it, and he would never let Mo Ling know about the conspiracy behind it. At least in this way, Mo Ling will not hate him, she can still be her favorite concubine, and she can still be harmonious with herself. How he wished that he could hide it from her for the rest of his life, so that what he owed her, he could use his whole life to slowly repay......

Unfortunately, there are no ifs in life, but there are always trade-offs.

Emperor Xuanwu's acquiescence made Mo Ling grief-stricken, what love is as deep as the sea, what kind of saint is favorable, when Emperor Xuanwu sent her this piano, she had already laid a net, just waiting for her to throw herself into the net.

How much she loved him, how much she hates now. That kind of love and hatred were repeatedly intertwined in the depths of her heart, constantly torturing her fragile flesh and blood, but she hated herself more than Emperor Xuanwu!

How she wanted to kill this executioner who ruined her country with her own hands, and longed to skin him and drink his blood to comfort the souls of her people in heaven. But she knew that with the strength of herself and the Liu family, even if she tried her best, it would only be an egg hitting a stone, and it would affect the Liu family's son.

In despair, Mo Ling smashed the jade qin that was in love with him to the ground in front of Emperor Xuanwu.

Qin broke off her love, and since then she has broken off all the love between her and Emperor Xuanwu.

After that, Mo Ling committed the following crimes and invited herself into the cold palace. Before entering the cold palace, Mo Ling asked Emperor Xuanwu for a will. She said that she had never asked him for anything, and that the only thing she asked for was that he would be able to save her people, but he had broken his word. Now she only wishes that she will never see him again from now on.

Not long after Mo Ling took the Liu family to live in the cold palace, she found out that she was pregnant. When Emperor Xuanwu learned of this, he was overjoyed, and wanted to take her out to raise the baby for this reason, but Mo Ling was unmoved, not only did he avoid him, but even the things he rewarded made the Liu family throw them out, unwilling to accept half of his affection.

Emperor Xuanwu thought of the chronic poison in Empress Renzhao's body back then, and knew that the cold palace was indeed the best place to protect Mo Ling and the child, so he gave up.

After Mo Ling gave birth to Rong Sui, Emperor Xuanwu originally wanted to take their mother and son out of the cold palace, but Mo Ling refused to obey to death, and even forced Emperor Xuanwu to take Rong Sui out to raise him.

As time goes by, no matter how hot the heart is, it will be cooled by the cold, not to mention the high Ninety-Five. Emperor Xuanwu gradually became disheartened with Mo Ling, and no longer cared about the affairs of the cold palace.

Mo Ling thought that as long as she was no longer favored, staying in the cold palace would not pose a threat to others, and she would be able to accompany Rong Sui to grow up safely, but she still underestimated a woman's jealousy. When she was in the limelight, she had already aroused the eyes of many people, and now that she has lost power, how can those people let her go easily?

The cold palace was already remote, and Emperor Xuanwu no longer asked, so those people intensified their humiliation of Mo Ling and the Liu family, and even Rong Sui, who was still in infancy, was not spared.

With the deliberate difficulties of the harem concubines and the rudder of the palace people, the supply in the cold palace gradually exceeded the demand. Mo Ling's body was already deficient after giving birth, and all the supplements sent by Emperor Xuanwu were returned by her, so that she could not recuperate well, and her health deteriorated. In order to let Rong Sui grow up healthily, Mo Ling often left her own food for Rong Sui behind Liu's back, so that her already weak body was completely ruined. Fortunately, the Liu family has been taking care of her all the time, and Mo Ling was able to drag her sick body to accompany Rong Sui for three years.

Over the years, the position of the queen has been vacant, and there has been no movement in the position of the crown prince. Originally, when Xiao Cheng was in power and the Xiao family was in full swing, it was a sure thing to canonize Rong Huan as the crown prince, but since the death of Empress Renzhao and then to Xiao Yuchuan stationed in the Mo clan, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Xuanwu's attitude towards the Xiao family has long been much worse than before, and the thoughtful Feng Lanzhi has seen the key.

β€”β€”The Xiao family is like a towering tree, the higher it grows, the higher it grows, when it grows to a certain height, when people look up, they don't know whether they are looking at it or the sky behind it. Therefore, can the heavens allow it to rise higher and conceal it?
