Chapter 30: The Fog in the Palace
The people here are guarding themselves like thieves, so it's better to take this opportunity to escape from this dispute and treat him as a cloud merchant or Daqi. Luoxue walked boldly in front of the Queen Mother and Qi Yuan, and she suddenly knelt down: "I implore the Queen Mother and the King to imprison me in Qiongyuan for the rest of my life, and never take half a step out of Qiongyuan, this is Zhaoping's original intention." ”
Every word was true, and even Luoxue herself was shocked by her actions, but it wasn't her blood on a whim.
The Queen Mother suddenly laughed and said, "Haha! Girl, are you too naïve? You still want to live a hermit-like life in the court, do you think this is possible?"
Qi Yuan frowned and clenched his fists, he wanted to give her a name, but she wanted to live a life like a cold palace. Is this woman brainbroken, or is she really too naïve, no one in this court can get out of the way.
It was not an abrupt move to give her a title, it was decided after careful consideration, did she think that this title was not heavy enough? Could it be that she still wanted to be the queen of this Qi country, but there could only be one later, Wu Yue'er was deeply affectionate to him, and he would never abolish it and set up a new queen.
"Zhaoping knows that this request is a bit excessive, but Zhaoping thinks that Qi Guo doesn't need me, and Yunshang doesn't need me. ”
"But now that you are a member of the Qi Kingdom, everything is up to you to choose, do you understand? You think you have the ability to choose now, you have to remember your identity, don't be too naïve. "The first time the Queen Mother saw such a woman, how many women tried every means to squeeze into the palace of the Qi king, and how many women stepped on other people's corpses just for a name.
And she, who could get a name without paying anything, even wanted to turn it away.
Qi Yuan was quite angry about this, this is about the dignity of this man, does she have to let her warm heart fall into the cold pool again? I don't know what to do, without my own support, you Zhaoping will not live for three years in the court of this Qi country.
"This king does not agree, you have repeatedly disobeyed this king's wishes, and I have said that if this king loses patience, I will kill you. The expression was extremely distorted, his eyes were like knives and swords, and Luo Xue's heart was numb when he saw it.
It's just that King Qi doesn't understand that Luoxue's heart is very small, even if she loves someone, she hopes that person loves her wholeheartedly. What's more, there is already a Queen Wu by his side, and there are many concubines, and Luoxue can't do so many women to serve one husband.
"O king, if thou wilt not fulfill me, I will live in Qiongyuan forever, and beg the king not to give me a title. ”
The Queen Mother has lived for so many years, and there are countless people in the court, but she can't guess what the kneeling woman in front of her is thinking. What about the only woman similar to her, "Hua Guifei", who ended up with a red face and an early death? Could it be that all this is a repetition of the old dream, the former self and Hua Guifei, and now Wu Yueer and Zhaoping.
Hua Guifei died in Qiongyuan, and that day the Queen Mother really wanted to repeat her old dream, because she had been lonely for too long. She just wants to watch a play, but this play, but she can't guess what the ending will be?
"Presumptuous! This Qi court is up to you, and if you don't teach you a lesson, you really don't know how thick the sky is. The Queen Mother was angry, just because she was really bored, and Sizi was eager to find someone to breathe a sigh of.
"Mother, don't be angry, this king has promised you not to give you a title today. But if you are unfaithful to this king, I will surely kill you with my own hands. I have also said that if you are unfaithful, I will surely bring Iron Hoof to repay your betrayal with the blood of the people of the merchants. ”
This is serious, you don't joke, he has always been. Luoxue also knows that everything is up to him, even if one day his hands are stained with the blood of the cloud merchant.
Luoxue knew that the man in front of her was still protecting herself, and if it weren't for him, her hands would have been on the clamp now.
The Queen Mother was dissatisfied with Qi Yuan's heart for this woman to be so protective, the punishment of the clamp had not been used in the court for many years, and since the reign of King Gu, he ordered the abolition of the extremely strict criminal law in the court.
In the days when the Queen Mother hung the curtain and listened to the government, she had never used such a punishment on people, and if it fell into the hands of Luo Xue today, then she would be the first person in the court in the past 20 years. These hands are already not good-looking enough, and if you put on another pair of clamps, I am afraid that they will be wasted.
Qi Yuan himself didn't want such a thing to happen in the court, or in his own palace, and they all said that he was ruthless. It was on the battlefield, and he had never used heavy punishment on anyone in the court, and although the Qi State had established strict criminal laws, few people had been punished by those terrible criminal laws.
"Zhaoping is a weak woman, she has no intention of political affairs, national affairs, and world affairs, and the king is too worried. ”
Qi Yuan didn't want these things to disturb his interest in drinking tea, this was indeed a good pot of tea, what if she didn't get it willingly? Qi Yuan didn't lack women, there were still many women in this court waiting for her to pamper her, if she didn't want to, she would follow her.
"When did the king become so merciful, the queen mother is old, you can make your own decisions about state affairs and family affairs. After speaking, the Queen Mother got up and returned to Yongshou Palace with her entourage, her four princes are coming back, which is more important than anything else.
"King, I have also retired, take care. Luo Xue saluted, then turned around and went out with the teapot, and Qi Yuan followed her without staying.
This lantern festival is set on December 12 in the fourth winter of King Jun, and it is now November 10.
Walking out of the palace, but there was no Yuanyuan and Wan'er, the eunuch in charge said: "Those two girls were sent back to the palace, it's really strange, there was a fog in the court of Qi State." ”
Yes, when the snow fell and looked up at the sky, a heavy fog began to float over the court of the Qi Kingdom.
A cold wind blew, the snow shivered, and she walked alone in the direction of Qiongyuan. As I walked, the fog got bigger and bigger, almost blinding the human eye, and this fog was really weird. Due to the fog in the palace, the king of Qi sent people to strengthen patrols, and it was strictly forbidden for palace people to walk around the palace without authorization.
But Luoxue felt very strange, but she didn't meet the palace people passing by along the way, which made her a little scared. The surrounding buildings were almost impossible to see, and Falling Snow had a premonition that she was going to get lost, but she was scared but still didn't shout.
"This is not the way to Qiongyuan, I remember very clearly, there is no such plane tree on the side of the road. Luoxue muttered quietly, she was sure that she was lost, and she was really starting to be scared in her heart.
But at this time, she heard a familiar bird call, which was the crisp call of the white phoenix, and Luo Xue was overjoyed. She looked up at the sky, but her eyes were obscured by the fog, and after a while a white bird landed on her shoulder.
"It's great that you're back, little one!" looked at the divine bird that stopped on his shoulder, and the heart of the falling snow suddenly became steady.
The white phoenix landed on his shoulder and did not fly away, and Luo Xue was holding a teapot in one hand as if he had stepped into another world, and this terrible silence was like the vast snow in a dream.
"Little one, I'm lost, what should I do?"
After speaking, the little guy on his shoulder fluttered his wings and flew in front of Falling Snow's eyes, as if it was helping Falling Snow lead the way. Falling Snow was a little surprised, but she also followed the bird, step by step into the depths of the mist.
