Emperor Yuan’s throat moved, but was unable to make a sound .

He squeezed the mirror armor on her abdomen until his head fell to look at the person in his embrace . It was if he had lost his own soul .

His A Yan is dead?

Slowly, he placed a finger under her nose, then pressed it against the artery on her neck .

The finger gradually stiffened and turned cold .

A Yan?

His other hand grasped hers tightly .

She had been holding her coin pendant . It was unclear when it had been wound around his hand until red marks appeared on it .

He seemed not to notice this and only stared at her .

When his numbed state was reanimated, an endless pain spread out from his heart to his entire body .

Every breath hurt so much he wished to die .

He watched her expectantly and waited for the moment she would open her eyes and smile as she called him ‘Qi’an’ .

A Yan, if don’t want to enter the palace, then don’t . If you want to if you want to guard the border, then stay here . If you want to live as a man, then be the most famous Marquis of Zhenbei .

As long as you wake up, you can do whatever you wish .

A Yan . . . will you wake up?

—————Time Dividing Line Break—————

There was a layer of autumn frost outside the window ond night, and the entire world seemed to be covered in white at first glance .

Outside the door, Eunuch Su whispered to Luo Shangyi: “His Majesty has not yet fallen asleep . Would you please advise him?”

Ever since His Majesty led the army to the border those years ago, his entire person changed; not only had he become more silent, his temper had also turned strange .

His Majesty earned the lifelong achievement of wiping out the barbarians and transformed from a young man who was always hindered by the ministers into an enlightened ruler with a golden mouth and jade-like words . No one in Chaotang dared to challenge this young emperor .

Eunuch Su was very happy for His Majesty, but he felt His Majesty was not happy at all . He must not be, for he seemed to always be on the verge of a violent outbreak . Eunuch Su was in a state of fear and trepidation whenever he waited upon the emperor .

The only person in the entire palace that could speak to his His Majesty was Luo Shangyi, who remained unmarried in memory of General Ming . His Majesty would be extremely gentle and patient whenever he was in her presence .

As Eunuch Su sent Luo Shangyi to the royal chambers, his heart felt very complicated . He could not understand . When his Majesty first summoned her to the palace, why did he not place her in the harem, but had her appear before him as Luo Shangyi instead?

Is it because Lady Luo is General Ming’s fiancée? Then she should go to the Ming family to wear the willow . Although His Majesty only kept her in the palace and did nothing else, in the eyes of outsiders, he had forcefully grabbed a married woman . It cannot be said how many people discussed this arrangement in private,ai!

Eunuch Su could not eat without thinking about these people misunderstanding His Majesty .

Nevertheless, as long as Luo Shangyi was here, he did not need to risk death to offer counsel . Although he thought her presence was inappropriate, he still hoped she would always serve the emperor .

After placing a cloak on His Majesty’s body, Luo Shangyi took a step back and spoke in a hushed voice: “Your Majesty should retire to bed . Will Your Grace be flipping a tablet1 tonight?”

Yuan Emperor did not speak . He was standing next to the window and his gaze remained focused on the outside .

Another year has passed .

He recalls that the snowfall at the border was particularly heavy that year . He was this old, yet that was the only time he saw great and feathery2 flakes of snow . Many winters have passed since then, but the frost and snow in Jingcheng never matched the border’s significance .


 

Flip a tablet (翻牌—fān pái): the way the emperor chose a concubine for the night was to flip over a tablet engraved with her name .   Feathery snowfall (鹅毛大雪—é máo dà xuě): idiom that means a large and heavy snowfall . It literally translates to ‘goose feather snow’ .
