Died of old age, and you tell me this is a life simulation?

Once the Mongols faced this powerful force, no matter how strong their military force was, they would be crushed to pieces.

It will not be much better than the situation in the Song Dynasty, Liao Dynasty, Jin Dynasty and Western Xia Dynasty.

“How should I deal with this… Is there a viable solution?”

She has been thinking about it during this period, but to no avail.

Because no matter how you plan it, there is no possibility of winning.

Not to mention winning, even protecting oneself seems like an unattainable thing.

Zhao Min sighed deeply, put down her teacup, and looked down at the still grand ceremonial procession below. She remained silent, with a slight ripple in her eyes.

Princess Huazheng's marriage hasn't been decided yet, perhaps...

He pondered, considered, and shook his head secretly.

Is that enough?...

Daqian's ambition to seize the world is clear.

How could they stop the war just for the princess of a mere country?

but......

"Let's wait and see whether Xixia's move will succeed or not."

Zhao Min looked at the team below gradually moving away with a dim gaze, then she withdrew her gaze, unfolded her wooden fan, turned around and left.

A few days later, Princess Yinchuan, who was temporarily staying in the Honglu Temple, got the opportunity to meet the emperor.

After a series of complicated rituals, he finally met the Lord of Daqian in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

There was no idle chatting during the period. First, the envoy presented a letter of credence, expressing the intention to present the princess. The ministers of Daqian responded, and then they waited for the final decision of the Emperor of Daqian.

Princess Yinchuan did not dare to peek, but just lowered her head and remained silent. The Western Xia envoys were even more trembling with fear and trepidation.

After a moment of silence, a solemn and majestic voice came.

Li Qinglu was confused at first and couldn't hear clearly what was said, but at the end she heard "...Princess Yinchuan will be appointed as Consort Ning, enjoying the courtesy of a Consort. The Ministry of Rites will draft an edict and choose an auspicious day for the ceremony of conferring the title."

This was heard clearly, and Li Qinglu's hazy eyes cleared up instantly, but she soon felt that she was hallucinating.

How could a princess like me, a mere princess of the small Xixia Kingdom, really gain the favor of the Daqian Emperor?!

It’s still the courtesy of a concubine!

Although this position is not as prestigious as that of a concubine, it is also a position that can be officially conferred.

The status is not low.

Things to know...

During this trip, she witnessed the strength of the Daqian nation. She felt that the purpose of this trip was somewhat hopeless. Even if she succeeded, her position would not be too high. It would be a blessing to be able to have a humble position.

But it was unexpectedly delayed.

Li Qinglu subconsciously raised her head slightly and was immediately met with a pair of eyes as deep as the abyss. She was immediately flustered and her face felt hot. She lowered her head, calmed herself down a little, and hurriedly knelt forward to thank the emperor for his grace.

Chapter 534 Li Qingluo: I have lived through two lifetimes and hundreds of years, what else can I not let go of?

The news that Princess Yinchuan was canonized as Concubine Ning spread quickly.

The Xixia team in the Honglu Temple was immediately overjoyed and cheered.

In their view, everything is perfect!

We will not let down the trust of the king, nor will we let down the country of Western Xia!

The officials of the Honglu Temple remained relatively indifferent to this, and the Xixia group was completely unaware of it. After all...

The Celestial Empire!

Officials are more valuable than them, so it is normal for them to have such an attitude.

If they really become enthusiastic, they will become very nervous and don't know what went wrong.

The central government officials all knew the news, and the details of the matter gradually leaked out in the city.

The heated discussion that was originally caused by Xixia's small combo suddenly became even more sensational.

Zhao Min listened to her subordinates' report, lost in thought, secretly surprised. "Ningpin? Isn't such a title a bit too noble?"

You must know that 240 Daqian has been invading the territory of Western Xia for nearly a month. Its offensive is like a crushing force, and it has seized most of the territory. The country is on the verge of destruction. Even if the princess is successfully presented, how dignified can it be?

She originally thought that at most she would be given an unnamed position, but she didn't expect it to be the position of a concubine. Although it was only a concubine's position, it was still precious enough.

Because this is a level that has been officially conferred.

"Could it be that the Western Xia Kingdom has really stumbled upon a way out?"

Zhao Min hesitated, but quickly denied the idea.

When a great power launches a war, it is not possible to stop the fighting just by saying so.

Would Emperor Daqian be such a mediocre person who would give up his career for a woman?

She never believed it.

so......

Even if this Xixia princess was canonized as a concubine, it would be basically impossible for her to change the fate of the Xixia Kingdom. The biggest possibility is that after its complete destruction, it would have some...positive effects on her royal family?

It's hard to say.

Unless this Princess Yinchuan, now Concubine Ning, becomes very favored in the future, then perhaps she will be favored by Emperor Daqian, who may show a little tolerance and leniency, making life easier for the Xixia royal family.

Is this just a possibility?

Things to know...

The former Zhao Song officials are now being sent to some place for forced labor reform, let alone being demoted to some title and then honored and supported as per the routine practice. This is a direct degradation to the lowest level, even worse than the common people.

If the emperors of previous dynasties in the Central Plains were like this, how could the ruler of Western Xia be able to live in peace and glory?

Zhao Min felt that this was unlikely.

certainly......

Considering that Daqian was a rebellious dynasty, it is understandable that they did not give Zhao Song any respect, or rather, it would be more reasonable to strike them down severely. In this way, it is possible that Daqian might not necessarily adopt the same attitude towards other countries as it did towards Zhao Song.

If this is true, the ruler of Western Xia might actually be more respectable than the Zhao Song emperor.

As for how respectable it can be, well, that depends on how favored Concubine Ning is.

"Princess Yinchuan was granted this title simply by paying an audience. Could it be that the rumors about her being born with a beauty unrivaled in the world are true? To be favored by even the Lord of Daqian, I imagine she's not some mortal..."

Zhao Min held the handle of the fan and glanced sideways at the bronze mirror. An extremely handsome face, as elegant as jade, was reflected in it. She was silent for a moment.

Although she claims to be as heroic as the heroes of ancient times, she is a woman after all, so it is inevitable that she has a competitive spirit.

"I wonder who is more beautiful, me or her?"

However, there is no answer to this question. Princess Yinchuan has been granted the title of concubine and will live in the palace for the rest of her life. How can there be any possibility of spying and comparing?

unless......

Zhao Min's expression paused slightly, and a blush appeared on her face, unknown what she was thinking about. She had put on makeup and dressed up originally to disguise herself as a man, and she had deliberately acted a bit stern, so she looked very heroic and extremely handsome. However, with the blush on her face, she suddenly became charming, and her face was so gorgeous that the whole room seemed to be brighter.

Pursing her lips slightly, Zhao Min held her heart with her jade hands, feeling extremely anxious.

I don’t know what happened.

It's always like this lately...

Could it be...that I got some kind of illness?

At this time, inside the Yangxin Hall.

All the girls looked at Fang Han with subtle expressions, then looked at Li Qingluo, Wang Yuyan and the others.

"Don't look at me like that..." Li Qingluo said helplessly, "Princess Yinchuan, my husband likes her, so just marry her. Now that the imperial decree has been issued, what else can I say?"

In fact, apart from feeling a little weird at the beginning, she had no other thoughts about this matter.

So what?

After living through two lifetimes and hundreds of years, what else is there that you can't let go of?

Although these connections were somewhat unconventional, the emperor was greater than heaven, and her husband was even greater than heaven. No matter what principles came to him, they were useless. However, she was indeed the daughter of this princess...

But so what?

Rather, Li Qingluo was somewhat pleased to see that her husband liked her family's character and appearance so much.

As for the Princess Yinchuan...

When she thought about it carefully, she realized that it would actually be of great benefit to her.

At least they have a relationship. If that person really catches her husband's eye and wins his favor, she can stay with him forever.

This is not to say that she wants to fight for any position, and she doesn't have such intention, but having a close and reliable person by her side to look after each other will make it easier for her to argue with Mu Wanqing in the future.

and......

My husband is quite partial to the four sisters, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, and seems to be somewhat fond of this?

Then she...

Li Qingluo's eyes lit up slightly, and she began to daydream, her thoughts scattered, but she didn't show anything on her face.

Wang Yuyan, who was standing aside, had no expression on her face. She raised her head slightly, glanced at him, then lowered her head again and continued to handle government affairs.

(ps: Asking for custom orders, full orders, flowers, evaluations, monthly tickets, comments, and support~)

Chapter 535: No doubt! Daqian's attitude!

After hearing what Li Qingluo said, everyone chuckled softly.

Huang Rong sighed, "Sister Qingluo is quite generous."

Li Qingluo was amused. "If you, the powerful Queen Mother Xi, don't say anything, what can I say?"

"That's so unreasonable..." Huang Rong said with a hint of anger, "Then what if I, the Queen Mother of the West, have to call you Sister? If Sister is willing, how about I give you this seat?"

"Don't!" Li Qingluo was defeated and didn't know how to respond.

Not because of anything else.

Given the relationship between people, it is naturally impossible to say that it is for a position.

Huang Rong's words were also a joke.

If she really wants it, it may not be impossible to give it to her.

But the problem is, Li Qingluo knows very well that if she sits on this position, she will not be able to convince the public.

Among all the girls, Miss Cheng is the legal wife, and it is only natural for her to be crowned as the queen. No one would think there is anything wrong with it.

As for this position in the west, there is no need to consider it in detail either.

If we look at it carefully, no matter from which aspect, Huang Rong is the most suitable and appropriate one.

In terms of the time of knowing Fang Han, she was the first one, even a lifetime earlier than Cheng Lingsu. It was just a coincidence that they missed each other, which led to the subsequent situation.

As for helping Fang Han, Huang Rong was definitely the most capable one. Not to mention her past life, just in this life, what matters, top to bottom, were not coordinated and managed by her, and she managed them in an orderly manner? This ability was something that most women would be ashamed of.

Even Wu Xingyun is inferior to her in this regard. After all, the sect's affairs are on a smaller scale, and there are precedents to follow, so there is no need to worry too much.

However, the affairs outside of this sect are extremely complicated, tedious and detailed, and every aspect starts from scratch. Who can not be convinced by such a capable and extraordinary woman and a virtuous wife?

In addition, Huang Rong has a very good relationship with people and can get along well with all the girls. If she takes this position, even Wu Xingyun will not say anything, and the jealous Mu Wanqing will not have any objection.

Not everyone can convince everyone.

With all these factors added together, her position as Queen of the West was naturally unquestionable.

Li Qingluo also agreed with this and felt it was appropriate.
