The two of them stood opposite each other in the palace. The atmosphere was very strange, but it was also very tense.
"This is the command tablet for leaving the palace. Pack your things and leave the palace before tonight." "Don't let me see you again, or I'll kill you." Lu Shaoheng's tone didn't change at all, but it caused the cliff that didn't fully respond to Lu Shaoheng to tremble.
The ice-cold medallion falling in front of the cliff was so unreal. It was as if everything that had happened in the past three months was fake.
This man who took her away for no reason, this man who said he wanted to be with her for no reason, this …
It turned out that sudden happiness was easy to break. When it was lost, one didn't even have the strength to accept it. One didn't even have the courage to ask why.
"If it'll be easier for you to hate me, then hate me." Lu Shaheng looked at the crying cliff and sneered, "Anyway, I was just a little excited about you. "I'm tired of playing right now, so you'd better get the hell out of the palace before I try to kill you."
Looking at the departing back of Lu Shaoheng, Cliff knew that he should wake up from this dream.
Perhaps she had been a substitute from the beginning.
At this moment, her heart was in so much pain that it felt like it had shattered.
Tears fell from his eyes like beads with a broken string. They shattered, leaving nothing behind.
If it was said that she fell in love with Xie Zimo at first sight, then what did she fall in love with Lu Shaoheng? This was the first time meeting such a man who looked down on everything, and the first time he was taken away by that man in a domineering manner. That man had eyes that were afraid of loneliness, but he had to pretend that he didn't care about anything.
Perhaps from the moment they met, their current ending had already been decided. She was the one who was too foolish. Even though she knew that the so-called love was not real, she still kept him by her side without any precautions.
Perhaps, from the beginning, they were only bed mates, nothing else.
Lu Shaoheng was such a self-centered man, yet he fell in love with him. He wanted to save him at all costs. But when they were sharing the same bed, Lu Shaoheng had called out Luo Ying's name. These days of sharing a bed and dreaming were like a nightmare on a cliff. It should have ended a long time ago.
She did not belong to the palace, and this man did not belong to her.
Hei Ya gripped the order badge in his hand tightly and stood in front of the palace gate. There was no end to the palace, just like the snow-white capital city. It buried the youth of many people, and it also buried the joy and sorrow of many people.
In this palace, the grievances and sorrows were never dispersed, and one could not clearly tell their sorrows.
Lu Shaoheng, should I hate you? Or have you forgotten all this with the feeling of having loved you? After that, you and I have nothing more to do with each other.
A line of footprints was left in the snow. Very quickly, those footprints were once again covered by the swirling snow.
A cliff with a hooded jacket stood outside the palace. She quietly gazed at the palace from afar.
Everything in the world was hard to predict. For example, you didn't know who you would meet. For example, you didn't know who you would fall in love with. For example, you didn't know why people would cry.
After getting along with each other, they had no choice but to say goodbye.
Lu Shaoheng, I don't know if I should love you or hate you.
The snow was falling heavily, covering the footprints on the way.
He stopped looking back at the cliff and disappeared into the distance …
After waking up, Kui Xue sat up from her bed. She didn't expect Lu Zixu to seal her acupoints and send her back to the palace. His goal was neither to kill Lu Shaoheng nor to take over the world, then what was it for? Was it just for a woman who had already become the queen of someone else?
Lu Zixu, you are too crazy.
Because her chest still hurt a bit, Baili Kui Xue covered her chest and got out of bed, wanting to pour some water to drink. She took a deep breath and couldn't help but cough. Soon after, blood started trickling down her throat.
It seemed that the price of using inner force to shatter meridians was quite high. The position of his chest was still extremely painful, but it was also weird. Why was his entire body so weak? What was going on?
Coral Snow sat by the table and poured herself a cup of water. Suddenly, she felt that something was wrong.
To confirm her conjecture, she picked up the teacup and tried to shatter it with inner force. The cup was motionless. She could not use inner force. Rather than saying that she could not use it, it would be better to say that she had no inner force at all.
"My internal energy?" While Baili Xingxue was still confused, Lu Shaoheng walked in.
"You're awake?" Lu Shaoheng happened to see Baili Xueyi, who was staring at the teacup in a daze.
"What did you do to me?" Kui Xue glared at him, and pounced on him, wanting to teach him a lesson and be bound in Lu Shaoheng's arms. Her whole body was weak, and with the dull ache in her chest, her expression was a little twisted.
"You don't need to know martial arts by my side." Lu Shaoheng lifted Kuangxue's chin to his lips, but the person in his embrace only averted his face. Lu Shaoheng's lips only landed on her face.
"Why did you cripple my martial arts?" Kui Xue frowned, looking at the overweeningly arrogant Lu Shaoheng. Indeed, this man never needed to discuss things with anyone. This was also the reason why Baili Xiang Xue hated him.
"When I fed it to you, I also fed you some Scattering Power Powder." Lu Shaheng let go of Baili Kuangxue and said lightly, "I don't want you to commit suicide."
"If it wasn't for you, how would I have … "Cough, cough …" Due to the Qi and fire attacking her heart, Baili Kui Xue felt a pain in her chest and couldn't help but cough.
Powerful arms wrapped around her waist, holding her in the chair.
"Don't be angry. If you leave behind any illness, don't blame me for not reminding you." Lu Shaoheng stroked her long hair, which was covered by the fragrant snow from hundreds of miles away. He felt that her hair was black and shiny, and when it was scattered, it was just a touch of her perfect face. Her eyes were as clear and beautiful as a spring. If one looked carefully, they would see that there was an enchanting teardrop mark on her forehead.
"For the past three months, I've been sending people to look for you, but they couldn't find you. "I thought you were dead, but I feel like you're still alive." Lu Shaoheng continued, "I have already crippled all the concubines in the palace. I only want you."
"…"
"Brashen found you before me. As a condition of the truce, he sent you back to me." I look at the sleeping you and I really want to take over you. Yet you actually used your life to force me, your courage is really great. "
Fifty miles of fragrant snow did not speak, listening to Lu Shaoheng's solo narration.
She already knew the gist of it. In order to pacify the situation, the Anduin Kingdom had to cease war, and the only person who could make Lu Shaoheng stop war was Kui Xue.
Lu Shaoheng was indeed a person who wanted beauties but not mountains and rivers, but such a person was also terrifying. As long as he wanted to do something, no one could stop him. He could do anything without thinking about the consequences. He could recklessly decide the life and death of others. In his eyes, there was no one under heaven. In his eyes, there was only himself, and everything he wanted.
"I heard that during the three months I was gone, the Emperor caught a girl." Hundred miles of sweet snow, trying to find the right words.
"Right now in this palace, other than you, there are no other women."
"So when I came back, the Emperor killed those women?" Kui Xue was shocked, but her expression remained calm.
This was her worst guess. With Lu Shaoheng's personality, it wasn't impossible for him to kill someone that wasn't important.
"They've all left the palace."
"Because I'm tired of playing, so I started to abandon him? "The Emperor is the Emperor. He can ignore anyone." Hearing that the cliff was safe and sound, Baili Yu Xue finally heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. She sneered contemptuously and looked disdainfully at Lu Shaoheng.
"I don't want them to …" Before he finished speaking the latter half of the sentence, Lu Shaoheng was interrupted by Baili Xiang Xue's sharp words.
"If you don't love her, then don't give others the impression that you love her." Her snow-white lips slightly raised, her tone as calm as water, yet it was extremely intimidating. She said, "Don't even deprive others of their right to hate you."
"Didn't I treat you well because I love you?" Lu Shaoheng frowned, looking at the fragrant snow.
"The Emperor loves himself. Because the Emperor wants the love he cannot have, he loves me." The conversation between the two ended just like that.
Those who became kings were always lonely. Because he couldn't see himself clearly, he didn't want others to see him clearly either. Because of the desire to be loved, only then will you seek the feeling of loving someone else. If the fragrant snow hadn't appeared within a hundred li, Lu Shaoheng wouldn't have realized that everything he possessed was inferior to what he truly treated with just two words …
After the fragrant snow returned to the palace, Xiao Kong and Xie Zimo rarely came to find her. Xiao Kong seemed to have been told other things by Lu Zixu, and Xie Zimo was probably plotting an attack. Lu Shaoheng was the only chatterbox Yu Xuan who accompanied Baili Kuangxue on her occasional walks in the palace. Without a noisy fellow like Xie Zimo, Kui Xue would sometimes feel bored. When she was bored, she would play the zither or just stare at the rattan sparrow in a daze.
In the past few months, nothing major had happened within the palace. Ever since they returned from the Hundred Miles of Fragrance Palace, the outside of the palace had been calm and tranquil. But these calmness, she could not have guessed it on the eve of the storm.
The days of snow were long gone. The sky was clear, but it was unsettling. The earth was warm again, and in many places there was melting snow. Kui Xue stood by the water in front of the yard, staring at her red dress. Ever since Lu Shaoheng had crippled his martial arts, it had become difficult for him to climb up to the roof and watch the sunset. Fortunately, he didn't need any inner strength to perform the beekeeping technique. Otherwise, he would be in deep trouble …
The fragrant snow raised her head and looked at the soldiers guarding outside the courtyard. Since her return, the number of guards had increased. Lu Shaheng's informants were everywhere, making her feel uncomfortable.
One spring morning, when the flowers were blooming, Yu Xuan, with her sleeves rolled up, squatted in front of the door and dug up the soil. She carefully buried a small crystal orchid plant.
"It's such a big place. "You can have more of them. Is one crystal orchid lonely?" It was unknown when, but Hundred Miles of Fragrant Snow had already stood behind Yu Xuan. She watched him pour the water before she spoke slowly. There was a hint of a smile on her lips. It was very faint, almost impossible to see.
"We're all with him. He won't be alone." Yu Xuan raised her head and smiled at Mo Juanxue. He was even more spirited than when he first arrived at the Prime Minister's Estate. He had grown fat and tall, and his beautiful eyes were even more lively.
Yu Xuan stood up, and pulled the sleeves of the 100 miles sweet snow, the two of them went closer to the crystal orchid. A ray of sunlight fell from the clouds onto the crystal blue. It was a very warm feeling.
Yu Xuan told Fuxue that when he was with Yu Wen, he liked to plant Crystal Orchids. Because their mother used to like Crystal Orchid, but then she died. Every time they went to a place, they would plant Crystal Orchids there. It was just like how their mother followed them.
