From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Guan Miaoshan bent over and coughed continuously, her face was pale and red, and finally she covered her chest and said: "Take a break, I can't run with you like this, I'm exhausted."

Zhou Yuan looked at her and said slowly: "Don't forget, you are a martial arts master with profound Taoism and successful practice, but now you can't even stick to this little distance."

"Big sister, with your body, your foundation is almost destroyed, and I don't know how many years you can live."

Guan Miaoshan glanced at him and said: "Don't scare me, you have to practice with me more to help me recover slowly, I still want to do things for a few more years."

Zhou Yuan said: "Oh, you still want to do things? Don't you want to do things for me?"

Guan Miaoshan asked in confusion: "What do you mean for you? Isn't everything I do now fighting side by side with you?"

She laughed again, covering her mouth and said: "This is also considered killing the emperor, haha!"

Zhou Yuan shook his head slowly and said: "This joke is not funny, I don't like it."

So Guan Miaoshan didn't laugh, just lowered her head.

Zhou Yuan said: "This world is moving towards prosperity, but if you are not with me to witness such prosperity, then everything is meaningless."

Guan Miaoshan whispered: "There is no way... More than ten years of accumulated problems, I... Even if I abdicate immediately and don't care about anything, I can't recover."

She raised her head, forced a smile, and said: "But it's okay, in fact, I have no regrets in this life. I have done my best to serve the people and be loyal to the nation. I am worthy of my status."

"For you... I have done everything I should do, and I have satisfied you with all the benefits. As for companionship... You don't need me."

Zhou Yuan still shook his head.

He said calmly: "I really hate such words, like the dying speech of an important character in a tragedy, although a little touching, it is definitely not happy."

"Guan Miaoshan, I want to give you a gift."

Guan Miaoshan raised her head and said with a little joy: "Gift? Let me guess! Is there any important good news that has not been reported in the Western Regions?"

Zhou Yuan said: "No."

Guan Miaoshan said: "Do you have a grasp of the situation in the South China Sea and have a way to deal with it?"

Zhou Yuan shook his head and said: "No."

Guan Miaoshan was puzzled and said: "What else can it be? Jin has nothing particularly difficult at the moment, except for the lack of money. Do you have a way to make money? "

Zhou Yuan looked at her and whispered: "What you said is not a gift, it is a state affair."

"The gift I'm talking about is the gift Zhou Yuan gave to Guan Miaoshan, a gift from a husband to his wife."

Guan Miaoshan trembled slightly, obviously a little surprised, a little surprised, and a little weird...

"Give it to me...?"

She frowned slightly and said, "I... I don't need any gifts, I don't lack anything..."

So no one has ever given her a gift.

So, in the soft sunshine of this morning, in the wilderness outside the city, with the singing of birds, Zhou Yuan took out the wooden box hidden in his arms.

He stepped on the grass and came to Guan Miaoshan's side, whispering: "Guess, what should I give you?"

Guan Miaoshan was a little at a loss, she opened her mouth, but didn't know how to guess.

What gifts do husbands usually give their wives?

She didn't dare to guess, nor would she guess, but no matter what it was, she already felt... she wanted to cry a little.

Why did I want to cry?

She didn't understand for the time being.

Zhou Yuan opened the wooden box, and the green Dao rhyme flowed and dissipated, and there was actually a thick layer of ice inside.

And deep in the ice, a palm-sized snow lotus was quietly placed.

It was so pure white, like a piece of uncut jade carved naturally, like a great work of art, exuding bone-chilling coldness and full of sacred breath.

Such a divine object, the beautiful charm exuded in an instant, is enough to make everyone forget themselves.

Guan Miaoshan subconsciously opened her mouth wide, and her breathing became heavy.

She wanted to speak, but was shocked by its charm, and couldn't find words to express it for a while.

Finally, she uttered a hoarse voice: "This is... the legendary... the top of the snow mountain in the Western Regions..."

Zhou Yuan said: "The spiritual energy of heaven and earth nourishes the snow lotus."

"It can heal your foundation. From now on, as long as you take good care of it, you will eventually recover to your peak."

Guan Miaoshan wanted to reach out and touch it, but was afraid of dirtying it.

She swallowed and murmured: "This... This is something that grows on the top of the snow mountain... Even if you have a high level of cultivation, it is... It is difficult to pick..."

"Where did you find it? Did Master help me find it?"

Zhou Yuan smiled and said: "Who do you hope to find it for you?"

Guan Miaoshan was startled and looked at him quickly, and said anxiously: "You went there? YouCrazy, that's deadly!"

Zhou Yuan laughed and said, "But I finally picked it. It's quietly waiting for me in the ice shell."

Guan Miaoshan was attracted by the white color. For a moment, she seemed to think of something. Her eyes suddenly turned red, and her eyes were filled with tears.

The wind blew, and her skirt fluttered.

The grass swayed, and the last vitality of this life was indulged in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The black hair fell down, Guan Miaoshan choked, and forced a smile, looked at Zhou Yuan, and said, "It's so white, like the jade pendant I gave you at the beginning."

Zhou Yuan smiled and said, "The jade pendant will not be returned to you, but the snow lotus is yours."

Guan Miaoshan whispered, "It belongs to me alone, to Guan Miaoshan, and to Miss Guan's family."

Zhou Yuan said, "Miss Guan's family, remember, every morning when the purple air comes from the east, hold a piece in your mouth, and meditate for a week. ”

“The snow lotus has nine leaves in total, which means it will take nine days.”

“During these nine days, I need to infuse you with the inner strength of the Pure Yang Wuji Gong when you circulate the meridians to help you circulate the meridians.”

“Otherwise, the effect of the snow lotus will not be maximized.”

Guan Miaoshan shook her head quickly, tears falling like pearls, shining in the sun.

“No, no…”

“It…it has already…”

She choked and sobbed, murmuring, “It has already exerted its maximum effect. It is the first gift I have ever received in my life…You climbed up the snow-capped mountains higher than the sky to pick it for me…”

“Nothing else is as important as this.”

Zhou Yuan wiped the tears from her face and said, “Stop being sentimental. It’s not like we just met.”

“I want it! I want it! "

Guan Miaoshan couldn't help hugging him, tears pouring down: "I want to be sentimental, I want to act like a spoiled child, I want to cry on your shoulder like an ordinary woman."

"This is... the only place where I can cry, the only place where I can be a woman."

"I'm tired... woo woo... I'm really tired..."

"You always talk about the weight of ideals, but ideals are almost suffocating me."

"I can't say I'm tired to anyone, I'm the emperor, I'm everyone's support."

"But I can tell you that you're my support."

She held Zhou Yuan's face, smiling with tears, pear blossoms in the rain, beautiful beyond description.

She exhaled like orchids, and murmured: "Do you remember? What I said that year."

Zhou Yuan said: "What did you say?"

Guan Miaoshan said: "I am the emperor of the world, you are my emperor."

"In fact, only I know... the moment I said that sentence, I was willing!"
