Mu Xue drank, how long was life?
Luo Qingchen used a calm tone to tell her story, but whenever she mentioned the extermination of her family, there would be a slight change in her eyes.
Du Jiu Sheng could see it.
"The crown prince isn't a good person, how could the empress be a good person?" Du Jiu Sheng gave a self deprecating laugh. He looked at the moon in the sky and said, "Do you want to hear my story?"
She was surprised. Seeing his slightly sad eyes, her heart strangely tightened. She didn't want to see his eyes like this.
Thinking about it, concubine Rou was probably a sacrifice in the struggle between the north and south factions.
"Alright." Luo Qingchen said with a faint smile, "We said that we won't leave until we're drunk, so let's let the past be drunk in the wind."
He took a sip of wine and slowly opened his mouth, telling his story.
Just like her, he used a calm tone to talk about life and death.
It had to be said, in the beginning, she thought that concubine Rou had died because of the struggle between the north and south factions.
But it wasn't like this, concubine Rou was the one who truly lived for love.
He loved Emperor Mo more than anything else.
It was a pity that in emperor Mo's eyes, the country was always more important than beauties.
Rather than saying that concubine Rou was a sacrifice of the north and south factions, it was better to say that she was emperor Mo's sacrifice.
The Mo Kingdom was located on the border, it wasn't as strong as the Central Plains.
Rather, it was a medium sized country that was surrounded by enemies, often being invaded by small countries.
Although they returned in defeat, the battlefield always made people feel tired.
Adding in the fact that the Liao people kept becoming stronger, if the Mo Kingdom couldn't expand their territory and recruit more soldiers, they would be in a dangerous situation.
And around the Mo Kingdom, the wealthiest country with the best geographical advantage was the neighboring small Xia Kingdom.
Concubine Rou was the Qi Country's princess, Xia Rou.
Emperor Mo personally went to the Summer Country to express his love for Xia Rou, but he didn't know that Xia Rou would be attracted by the elegant emperor Mo and decide to be with him.
Love at first sight, love at second sight, love at third sight.
Xia Rou married emperor Mo like this and the Mo Kingdom and Summer Country became allies.
But in reality, Emperor Mo's thoughts were not as simple as just being on good terms. He wanted to annex the Xia Kingdom.
Three years later, Emperor Mo implicated Xia Rou with the Southern Sect on the grounds that she colluded with the rebels, and conveniently banished her to the Cold Palace.
Then, he officially sent troops to the Great Xia.
Why three years? It was because Emperor Mo didn't want others to say that he married Xia Rou for the sake of Xia Kingdom.
Furthermore, in the next three years, more than half of the people in Xia Country were killed or injured due to natural disasters.
As a friendly nation, not only did the Mo Kingdom not lend a helping hand, but they also refused to help when they were down.
At this point, the two armies had fought for less than ten days. The Mo Kingdom's army invaded the main city and successfully replaced the Xia Kingdom's king.
Before he died, the old King thumped his chest and shouted, "What I regret most is marrying my daughter to you!"
Hearing Du Jiu Sheng casually tell this story, she was stunned.
"My mother was depressed after being banished to the Cold Palace. She was a woman who lived for love, but it was a pity that emperor Mo never came to find her again." Du Jiu Sheng took another large mouthful of wine as a dark glow appeared in his deep eyes.
At that moment, she could feel his hatred, even if he didn't say it.
His heart should be filled with hatred! But since ancient times, the love of an emperor was always cold … …
"And then?"
