The fifty-seventh year of the Xinbei Dynasty.

Snowflakes fell all over the sky, like goose feathers, one after another, and landed lightly on the roof, and for a moment the earth was snow-white, as if the whole world was silver-white.

But for some reason, today's snow doesn't look so beautiful, and there seems to be a hint of sadness.

In the hall in the backyard of Wei Yuanbo's Mansion, there was a woman standing in a thin and trembling dress at this time, she was Liu Ruoxi, the wife of Wei Yuanbo.

She had just learned that her mother's family was about to be beheaded on charges of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and that she would be executed at noon tomorrow. She didn't have time to change her clothes and freshen up, and came to her aunt's house to find her husband, Wei Yuanbo.

Because she came too early, she could only stand in the hall and wait.

Qi Chen and Aunt Zhao came to the hall hand in hand, and saw that Liu Ruoxi was only wearing a jujube red coat, her hair was pulled up with a plum blossom hosta, and her brows were tightly wrinkled together with her head down.

Aunt Zhao pursed her lips and said mockingly: "What did I say sister? ”

Liu Ruoxi turned around and saw Aunt Zhao and Qi Chen walking in from outside. Aunt Zhao pulled Qi Chen over from Liu Ruoxi, walked to the octagonal table and sat down.

Liu Ruoxi saw them come in and stood up straight, looking at Qi Chen bitterly.

"It's early in the morning, what's so urgent? I can't wait until I'm done talking about it. Qi Chen looked at Liu Ruoxi standing below with an impatient face.

Liu Ruoxi bit his lower lip and looked at this man who was high up, time had not left any traces on his face, and he was as handsome as before.

How miserable it is to live by herself, and if you want to see your husband, you have to go to your aunt's yard to see it in person. Watching them love each other, their hearts hurt a lot. Usually I don't get used to arguing with them, but today I didn't quarrel because I asked Wei Yuanbo for something, so I couldn't make him angry.

Liu Ruoxi took a deep breath, "Dingguo Mansion will be beheaded tomorrow, do you know?"

Qi Chen glanced at Liu Ruoxi. said lightly: "You know, isn't this something that everyone knows on the streets?" After speaking, he took a sip of tea with a cup.

After listening to Qi Chen's words, Liu Ruoxi looked at Qi Chen incredulously, "I know, I know why you didn't tell me? That's my mother's house! They will be beheaded tomorrow." ”

After Liu Ruoxi finished speaking, she covered her heart in pain, her heart felt like she had been stabbed, and she couldn't breathe in pain. stubbornly didn't let the tears flow out, but the tears still fell drop by drop.

At this time, Aunt Zhao, who was sitting next to Qi Chen, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and sneered: "Sister is really funny, that's my sister's maiden family, my sister doesn't know, my uncle is busy with official business all day long, so I have time to tell you these little things." After speaking, he glanced at Qi Chen flatteringly.

After listening to Aunt Zhao's words, Liu Ruoxi looked at Qi Chen and saw that he did not refute.

The pain in his heart became even stronger, and his hand tightly grasped the clothes on his chest and sneered: "Little thing, although Qi Chen was designed by me to marry you, but if it wasn't for the help of my father and uncle, how could you be where you are today, and now that they have an accident, shouldn't you help them?"

When Qi Chen heard the design and help him, a nameless fire in his heart instantly filled his whole body, and he smashed Liu Ruoxi with the cup, and the fragments of the cup cut through Liu Ruoxi's face, and blood flowed out of his face.

Liu Ruoxi completely ignored the injury on his face, stepped forward and stared straight at Qi Chen, and said nervously, "Do you really hate me so much?"

Qi Chen's hands were clenched into fists, the green tendons on the back of his hands were furious, and he glared at Liu Ruoxi and gritted his teeth and said, "Hate you? Liu Ruoxi, do you know? How much I wanted to kill you before, you said they helped me? It was you who designed me and made my Weiyuan Bofu a joke of the Xinbei Dynasty." Help me, if it weren't for you how I would have fallen into being helped by them. ”

Liu Ruoxi was stunned by Qi Chen's words, and did not reflect it for a long time.

"Sister, you might as well think of a way to collect a corpse for them if you are begging Uncle here. Do you know that the emperor decreed that no one was allowed to collect their corpses, and directly threw them into the wilderness. ”

Liu Ruoxi's heart tingled more and more, she took a breath, and knelt on the ground with her legs, but her back was straight.

"Qi Chen, I have never begged you for anything before, and now I beg you. ”

Qi Chen was stunned when he saw Liu Ruoxi's actions. Usually Liu Ruoxi is such a proud person, since she married her, she has often made it difficult for her, and she never bowed her head, but today she knelt down for herself.

Qi Chen quickly calmed down, "Liu Ruoxi, it's useless for you to beg me. Now that the new emperor is registered, your father holds military power, he supported the crown prince before, and now he is the second prince who ascends the throne, he has long hated your father, and now that he has the opportunity, do you think it is useful for me to intercede?"

"However, my father has never supported the crown prince at all, my father has always obeyed the emperor, and now that the second prince has ascended the throne, my father is also fully supporting, why does the second prince still have ...".

"Sister seems to be really simple, don't you know that there is a saying called killing chickens to monkeys?" Zhao said with a handkerchief covering his mouth and sneering.

Liu Ruoxi ignored Aunt Zhao and looked at Qi Chen pleadingly: "No matter what, I beg you, you go and ask the emperor for intercession, isn't your relationship very good?"

Qi Chen looked at Liu Ruoxi like this, his heart became even angrier, his hands were tightly held and he stood up and looked at Liu Ruoxi, "Liu Ruoxi, where is your backbone? ”

Liu Ruoxi's hand was clenched tightly, blood dripping down her fingers, but she didn't feel any pain at all, the only thing she could ask for now was Qi Chen, and now if Qi Chen let her die, she would do the same, as long as she could save the people of the country.

"If I lose my backbone and pride, I can save the country, and I won't have any complaints if I die now," Liu Ruoxi said roaringly.

Qi Chen still wanted to say something in his mouth, but seeing that Liu Ruoxi had been holding hatred and resentment in his heart for so long, it was gone.

"Liu Ruoxi, I will go to plead with the emperor, but I don't dare to guarantee whether it can achieve your wishes, you can return to your broken Yuxuan." In the future, we will not see each other in life and death, so we should give us a result of this evil relationship. After saying this, Qi Chen slumped weakly in his chair, feeling completely liberated.

Liu Ruoxi kowtowed to Qi Chen again, and said lightly: "If you can do what I want, I will also do what you wish, I will ask you to give me a letter of resignation, leave forever, and I won't see you anywhere."

Liu Ruoxi stood up after knocking, the wound on his head was still bleeding, and the blood was all over his face, looking so embarrassed.

Liu Ruoxi was helped back to Broken Yuxuan by Qingmei standing outside, she didn't do anything, she didn't know what to do now, so she could only sit there and wait.

Liu Ruoxi didn't know how long she had been sitting, and Qingmei came in and said that Aunt Zhao was here.

Aunt Zhao came in and looked around and sneered: "Sister, you are still the same here as before...... Deserted. ”

"What are you doing here, are you laughing at me?" Liu Ruoxi looked at Aunt Zhao coldly.

"Look at your jokes, my sister is really good at laughing, your jokes are still few, and I came here to see your jokes in person," Aunt Zhao sat opposite Liu Ruoxi and glanced at Liu Ruoxi with disgust.

"Uncle asked me to come, let me tell you, he pleaded with the emperor, but the emperor did not agree, but he allowed you to collect their bodies. If my sister needs help tomorrow, you can tell me, I can give you a few Xiao Si, after all, there are many people in Dingguo Mansion. ”

Liu Ruoxi actually thought of such a result, but when she heard such a result, her heart still hurt and she couldn't breathe.

"Sister, seeing you so pitiful, I'm telling you something, do you know why Uncle doesn't like you? Because he likes your cousin Liuser Dance. Because you designed him, he had to marry you, so that he never married the person he loved in his life. In fact, he is also a poor man. ”

"I heard that your sister has never married in her life and became a nun, all of this is caused by you, you said that he doesn't hate you, who should you hate. ”

After Aunt Zhao finished speaking, she looked at Liu Ruoxi with pity, seeing that she didn't react, in fact, everyone is a pitiful person.

Liu Ruoxi didn't have any expression on her face, in fact, her heart had already been shocked and rolled, now thinking about it, before she got married, her sister came to find her, and the pain on her face was so obvious, at that time, she just wanted to marry the person she liked and was happy that she didn't find out her sister's sadness at all.

At that time, my sister kept asking if she really liked Qi Chen, and she had been nodding very much. My sister smiled and blessed herself, and now I think about how reluctant my laughter was at that time!

"Why are you telling me this? I don't have the strength to earn anything. Liu Ruoxi said weakly.

"I just think we're all poor people, we're all substitutes for others, you can do it for yourself in the future!" After speaking, Aunt Zhao sighed and turned to leave.

After Aunt Zhao left, Liu Ruoxi felt a hot current gushing out of her mouth, it turned out that she was so wrong in her life, and she lived so patheticly, she vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted.
