He Lanmin gritted his teeth: "If your Majesty thinks that my concubine has connections with foreign countries and has betrayed you, just order her execution directly. There is no need to go to such trouble."
Tuoba Gui smiled and said: "You are right, there is no need to go to such trouble, just give the order. However, you and I have known each other for many years. As a priest of the Dugu tribe, you also betrayed Liu Xian, so today
I can understand why you betrayed me again for the benefit of your Helan tribe. On the grassland, people are inherently rebellious and need to be loyal and be kind and powerful at the same time. I just want to know if you betrayed me this time.
Is it because of the tribe, or because of hatred for me?"
He Lanmin gritted her teeth: "Now that things have happened, I have nothing to hide. Yes, I was the one who led Murong Lin to attack. Who told you that you swore an oath to me back then and said you would make me your coroner, but afterwards you turned out to be your exclusive favor?"
The Liu family of the Dugu tribe! When it comes to betrayal, it was you who betrayed me first. And what you did to our Helan tribe is not repaying kindness with enmity, so what is it?!"
Tuoba Gui sighed: "I admit, I'm sorry for you and the Helan tribe, but you have to know that this is necessary for survival on the grassland. The Helan tribe has dominated the east for many years, and it has become a tail-end early. I am now
It is better to suppress it than to become the second Dugu tribe in the future. As for you, I am sorry for you in Daning City, but your affairs are known to the whole grassland. I can no longer make you a coward, but I
Over the years, I have been compensating you, our Shaoer, I have been very indulgent, but if it were my other sons, such as Sier, I would be much stricter than I was with Shaoer!"
He Lanmin laughed: "Do you think that ignoring discipline and allowing Shaoer to be domineering is compensation? You are irresponsible as a father! Shaoer was the first to be born, but you have no intention of making him your heir, and you still say this
Is it good for him? Raising a son without educating him or establishing a heir, is this what you give him as a father?"
Tuoba Gui said in a deep voice: "Because the Helan tribe later rebelled, I even forgave your brother Helan Ranqian and did not pursue him. However, it is impossible to kill the son born to you from the Helan tribe now."
As the heir, after all, the Dugu tribe is the majority of Monan, so I can't help but appease him, but so far, I haven't established the heir as the crown prince. I will give him enough opportunities in the future, and I will never do anything wrong.
The Murong family made the same mistake."
He Lanmin gritted his teeth: "It's useless for you to explain to me now. Our Helan tribe no longer trusts you. When you were at your lowest, it was our Helan tribe who took you in and left the pasture and headquarters for you.
The public allowed you to start a business, but how did you deal with our tribe and me? Now that the eldest brother is old, he has no ambition to compete with you for power. This incident was done by me alone. If you want to kill me, just kill me.
Kill me and don't implicate my tribe. Also, Shao'er is innocent. After you kill me, don't hurt him again!"
Tuoba Gui sighed: "Amin, you should know that I have always loved you. When I talk to you like this today, I don't want to find fault with you, but I want to have a good talk with you. After all, after all these years,
, we don’t talk like this anymore, you have changed from my most staunch pillow person to the traitor you are now. Do you know how much my heart hurts?"
He Lanmin said in a deep voice: "The matter is over, no more words. According to the rules of the grassland, you can just kill me. To you, I am just a useless person now. When you see me, you will think of the big world."
Ning Cheng's humiliation that night, only by killing me can you feel better!"
Tuoba Gui said sternly: "I said, don't mention that matter again! As a man, I can't protect my woman. Don't you know that this is the eternal pain in my heart? So, over the years, I have to let myself become
Strong, strong enough to protect yourself and your brothers’ wives and children!”
He Lanmin was a little surprised. She looked into Tuoba Gui's eyes: "You, don't you want to get close to me because you hate me and think I'm dirty?"
Tuoba Gui sighed: "We people on the grassland don't have the chastity and moral values of the Central Plains people. What happened that night, I hate my own incompetence more. I really don't blame you. If you are because of this misunderstanding,
It is really a big mistake to betray me. I cannot let the Helan tribe become the second Dugu tribe, but I will not kill everyone just because of your Helan tribe's betrayal. This is the only thing I can do as a lord.
That’s it.”
He Lanmin gritted her teeth: "Tell me, what else can I do for you? If you don't want to kill me, then I promise that I will never betray you again."
Tuoba Gui nodded: "No one knows that you have betrayed me now, except for Murong Lin across from you, so as long as you can help me kill Murong Lin, I will not pursue any matters, and even, because of
Reward the Helan tribe for your merits. As for Shaoer, I think you don’t want him to know that his mother betrayed his father, colluded with foreign enemies, and wanted to destroy his motherland."
A trace of panic flashed in He Lanmin's eyes: "No, Shao'er is innocent, he doesn't know anything."
Tuoba Gui smiled slightly: "So, in order for Shao'er to live well in the future and live as the prince of Tuoba Gui, it depends on your choice what to do. I, Tuoba Gui, have my own limits.
Enemies can be forgiven, past betrayals can also be let go, Amin, you understand what I mean."
He Lanmin stamped her foot: "Okay, then tell me what you want me to do."
Tuoba Gui smiled and picked up He Lanmin's hand: "Look, don't we go back to the past like this? It's good. Amin, I need you to go find Murong Lin again."
At night, by the Yellow River, there is the Yan army camp.
Murong Lin stood alone on the watchtower, looking at Muyu Song's head hanging at the gate of the camp, and sighed: "Muyu, Muyu, you are not keeping things secret, and you have lost your life if you don't tell me, and you almost caused harm to others."
Kill me. If I had known this, I shouldn’t have listened to you and cooperated with He Lanmin!"
He Lanmin's voice sounded from behind him: "If you didn't cooperate with me, why would you be here now? You and I have been working together for many years, but because of one mistake, we are about to fall out?"
Murong Lin didn't look back and said coldly: "Not once, but twice. You messed up the previous raid on Mosong Ferry. It's only three things. I don't want to see you again in the future. You can leave!"
He Lanmin sighed: "Do you think you will be safe if you sever ties with me? This time, your subordinates wanted to support you in the army, but the rebellion failed. Although the enemy still allows you to continue to be in charge of the army, but
Will your father let you go after returning to China?"
