This day is the fourth winter of King Jun of Qi, and on December 2, the court of Qi caused waves in the entire court because of the incident of snow poisoning. The entire palace seems to have been implicated in the poisoning, from the Imperial Dining Room to the Imperial Hospital, to the Ministry of Works.

and because of the death of Qiongyuan's maid Yuanyuan, and because of those few people who caused trouble outside the Minghe Palace, one side involved the queen. Those people came from different institutions, including the Ministry of Industry, the Criminal Department, etc.

However, there is still no reason for where the poison of this purple sunset comes from, and Qi Yuan, as the emperor, did not kill because of this. He knew that if he wanted to solve the problem by killing people, there would be blood in this palace, and he didn't dare to make an accurate conclusion about those who wanted to die by himself for the time being.

In the four years since he ascended the throne, there have not been too many abnormalities in the palace of the world, but those who have the heart of rebellion have never made any moves. As a person from the pro-emperor faction, he also knows it in his heart, the four princes Qi Fei and the queen mother are a faction, which is the faction that threatens him the most in the palace.

It's just that Qi Yuan himself can't be sure that his mother will absolutely support the fourth brother's rebellion, as well as the eighth prince Qi Shu who guards the west of the border. This Qi Shu didn't seem to show any abnormality, and when it came to the fact that the Eighth Prince Qi Shu was not yet seventeen years old, he still respected himself very much.

Now what Qi Yuan is worried about is the people of the Wu family, and Wu Hua, the son of the Wu family, has long expressed his dissatisfaction with the emperor, how could Qi Yuan not know about it? The power of the Wu family is also regarded as the dominant party, and at this day's court meeting, for the first time, there was an attitude of passing the buck among the ministers of civil and military affairs.

Wu Tianxing, the secretary of the Criminal Department, had a dispute with Prime Minister Gu Yuan, and the Prime Minister always felt that the punishment of the Criminal Department was too cruel, so Qi Yuan abolished some cruel punishments. Wu Tianxing gave up the abolition on the grounds that "the punishment is not heavy enough to calm the chaos", and Gu Yuan believed that the use of excessive punishment would have a greater chance of being beaten into a trick and an unjust and wrongful case, so the imperial court considered revising it.

On this day, there was a quarrel between the DPRK and China, and Qi Yuan will never forget the scene of Wu Tianxing, the secretary of the criminal department, leaving the palace after the court meeting.

In Qiongyuan, due to the new palace maids and guards, several sealed rooms in Qiongyuan were also removed again, and the palace maids were allowed to live in Qiongyuan to take care of them. The guards took turns on duty, but Luoxue asked those guards not to enter the Qiongyuan without orders, and could only wait outside the Qiongyuan.

Ke'er is still very timid, sticking to the falling snow like kraft candy, presumably Yuanyuan's death has once again formed a shadow on her soul, but she didn't ask about Yuanyuan's death.

According to the oral complaints of Wan'er and the other three maids, Yuanyuan committed suicide by biting her tongue when she learned that the poisoning was caused by medicinal food and food. Suddenly biting his tongue and committing suicide without any warning seems unreasonable, is suicide in fear of crime a way to clear people's suspicions?

Or someone deliberately did it, transferring the suspicion to someone else, everything is very likely. What happened on this day, the spearhead was directed at the current king and the falling snow who lived in Qiongyuan, and it seemed that the queen's dislike was getting bigger and bigger.

But the events of this day implicated the entire court, so that no one could clear their disgust, and this day was only ten days away from the Lantern Festival in the palace. Qi Yuan had thought about giving up holding such a festival, but he still insisted on holding such a grand festival, and Qi Yun, the sixth prince, must also know what he thought in his heart.

Two days later, Qi Shu, the eighth prince, was the first to return to the palace and brought back the specialties west of the border, and he went to Jianhe Palace to meet Qi Yuan. There was nothing wrong with the two talking happily, and of course, there were those younger princes who returned to Beijing from their fiefdoms, which were not enough to affect Qi Yuan.

Until December 8, there were only four days before the Lantern Festival, and the four princes did not fly back to Kyoto. This point is very confusing, and the Queen Mother is even more anxious. It's only been four days, but her thoughts are getting stronger and stronger, and the queen mother is like a few years older overnight.

Luoxue is going to Minghe Hall every three days to get rid of poison with internal force, and the two of them have always looked very embarrassed, and they have physical contact with each other, but Luoxue feels that the distance between the two people is getting farther and farther away. There was no communication with each other during the whole process, and he didn't hold his hand as tightly as before, and after every time the detoxification was completed, he got up coldly and left without looking at her.

On this day, he suddenly spoke: "Falling snow, if one day you had to choose between this king and Yun Shang, who would you choose?"

This is a multiple-choice question that makes Luoxue embarrassed, Yunshang is his hometown, and the person in front of him is not his husband, but he also has some affection for himself. If it weren't for his reminder, in fact, Luoxue had forgotten Yunshang for the time being, and she felt that she had lived a good life in Qiongyuan for a few days.

Falling Snow put on a snow-colored pear flower robe, walked down from the dragon bed, and stepped on the fine cashmere carpet from outside the fortress. The man in front of him, the face that had once bloomed with warm sunlight, was now covered with thicker frost and snow.

That face can't be touched, and when you touch it, a biting coldness swells up in the palm of your hand, and the pain is like a hedgehog's spikes. Now it takes a lot of courage to even look at this face, and the eyes are like a deep black hole that you can't see clearly, and he has become the king who is high up and buries everything in his eyes.

"Do I have a choice?" The light and cool tone seemed to have nothing to do with him, and he might not have a choice at all.

His face leaned over to her, his breath rushing through him, and the bridge of his nose was about to touch his cheek. Falling Snow took a few steps back, a dangerous aura, though his aura was a little disorienting.

He flicked the jade wrench on his thumb with one hand, and the cold air dissipated from his fingertips, and Luoxue suddenly felt as if he was going to kill himself. In his eyes, he seemed to have nowhere to hide, and his mind was also unobstructed by him.

"Of course, there are choices, but if you choose the wrong one, you will never recover, and if you choose the right one, you will have no worries for a lifetime. The tone was cold, and the cold air on his fingertips gave Luoxue goosebumps, and every time he detoxified her, cold air would flow out of his fingertips.

"I don't have a choice!"

"What you think the cloud merchant has done to you, I am afraid that you know very well in your heart, and you should also know very well how this king treats you. His tone grew colder, and his five fingers seemed to be about to pinch her throat again, but he was right.

The cloud merchant just uses himself as a bargaining chip, and he is the chess piece from the beginning, and maybe this chess piece will not bring any winning face to the cloud business. However, if someone plays this game of chess, just like the man in front of him, he is just a chess piece that others have planted a long time ago.

It's not right to choose anyone, it's right to choose anyone, maybe not choosing anyone is the best ending.

"I was born in Yunshang, that is the food and clothing parents, if I can love the king one day, will this be my destiny?" she calmed down instead, staring at him with those clean eyes, there was no expression on his face, and the jade wrench finger was tightly held in his hand.

"Childish, women marry and teach children, what do you have to do with national affairs?" scolded coldly.

She sneered, what does national affairs have to do with her, it is indeed like this.

"It's just that, king, Luo Xue's heart is very small, and he can't tolerate his man to have other women in his heart. Luoxue's heart also can't hold a superfluous man, the emotion and protection of a lifetime, can you do it?"

Luoxue doesn't feel that she is naïve like this, she can't choose her husband in this court, and she can't choose the person she loves. But he is not willing to hand over his life, even if it is the man in front of him, if he has another woman in his heart, he will not hand over a piece of sincerity.

Since ancient times, men have three wives and four concubines, not to mention the king of a country. As the emperor, we don't have a choice, do you still have a choice, but if you choose the cloud business, I will definitely kill you. This is said so resolutely, in fact, Luoxue has already guessed it, but it is just expected.

Luoxue smiled at him and stepped out without looking back, is his kindness and hatred for her really worth it?
