Chapter 8: The First Snow

Huge flakes of snowflakes fell from the dim sky one after another, and it rained all night, bringing all the palaces, cornices, royal roads, cloisters, gardens, courtyards, and windows in front of the ......

All covered with a layer of white snow. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the East Palace, all the corridors seem to be hanging upside down with strings of crystal crystals, reflected in the palace lamps that have not been extinguished, crystal bright, like a dream castle.

Long icicles hung upside down like crystal swords, and the newcomers were climbing to the railing of the back bar with dust to clean up.

The breath of everyone turned into a circle of white mist in the air, hazy.

Early in the morning, before the sky was fully bright, Xiao Zhengzi led people around to check the slippery and frozen ground in the East Palace due to heavy snowfall, and those who should be de-iced should be de-iced, those who should be cleared of snow should be swept away, those who should be salted should be sprinkled with salt, and those who should be wiped dry should be wiped dry, and commanded in an unsteady manner, "Hurry up! The lady is about to get up, and she must clean up the road before this." Although the princess is merciful, but if she falls on the princess, she will carefully ask you to eat and fall. ”

"Yes, yes, normal waiter. ”

Stacks of promises rang out one after another in the corridor.

The newcomer from the palace quietly glanced up at the steward of the East Palace, and suddenly pointed at him in surprise and said, "Xiao Zhengzi, do you remember me?"

Hearing this exclamation, Xiao Zhengzi's ordinary face frowned slightly, "Are you?"

"I'm Xiao Dezi in the study, and I used to clean the backyard with you and mop the floor together. ”

Little Dezi pointed at himself, and then showed his eight-toothed signature silly smile, and his round and pleasing face.

"I remember, why did you also transfer to the East Palace?"

Xiao Zhengzi lowered his head and asked impassively when he heard this.

"I'm on temporary secondment, don't you want someone to clean the East Palace today? And the study has already been out of school, and there is no one, so the steward sent us over to help. After Xiao Dezi finished speaking, he pointed to two or three more faces to Xiao Zhengzi.

Xiao Zhengzi saw them one by one, and then said hello, "Then you do a good job, this side of the East Palace is not as good as the study, if you don't do a good job here, especially if the princess is pregnant now, if the princess falls, we will all be blamed." And the Chinese New Year is coming soon, remove the old and welcome the new, don't let go of a trace of dust in every corner. ”

Xiao Dezi led everyone to nod frequently, and reassured, "Don't worry, we know the temper of the master of the horse, in the study before, the master of the horse is also the strictest." ”

The people who came from the upper study all knew that Ruo Ao Ziyan's cleanliness was still strict.

"Well, then you can do a good job! When you're done, go back to the study!"

"Yes, yes, normal waiter. ”

Xiao Zhengzi took people to continue to check other places, and then gradually walked away through the windy and snowy corridor, a small palace man beside Xiao Dezi secretly said, "You are really bold, you actually have a friendship with him, don't you know that he is now the righteous son of Zhao Changshi?"

"The identity is different from ours!"

"Yes. ”

"I just know that I came here today to do this errand on purpose, and I want to make a fat mess here in the East Palace. I heard that although the horse master is strict, in addition to the share in the palace, there is also a share on the horse master's side, and there is another reward for doing a good job, but there are many more. ”

Xiao Dezi said, and then put away the pleasing smile on his face, pouting, "I don't know what kind of good luck Xiao Zhengzi handed over, it was a sprinkler who was similar to us, and he was valued by the nobles, and was sent to Zhu Palace to serve Zhao Changshi, and then became Zhao Changshi's righteous son all the way, and became the first person in this East Palace." ”

"That's also people's fortune, what does it have to do with us!"

"Shhhhhh

"I know, I know, come, keep working. ”

Everyone continued to clean up, and at the end of the corridor, Xiao Zhengzi cautiously knocked on the door and walked into the study, the plain eyes glanced at the man behind the long case, and bowed his head and replied, "Don Ma, all the places have been cleaned up according to your orders, I believe that the princess will never fall when she wakes up." ”

"Hmm. ”

Ruo Ziyan bowed slightly, and said, "Have the plum blossoms in the peony garden bloomed?"

"It opened, and in the morning, all those wax plum blossom bones bloomed. Xiao Zhengzi replied.

"Well, then you take someone to set up that side, and the pony will go over with the lady later. Ruo Ao Ziyan commanded.

"Yes, colt. ”

Xiao Masako took the order and turned around and went out.

Ruo Ao Ziyan looked at Xiao Zhengzi who bowed down and walked out of the study, his sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he suddenly raised his voice and asked, "Qingpu, Xiao Zhengzi who asked you to check before, have you checked?"

Qingpu was slightly stunned when he heard this, "Childe, I checked, this little Zhengzi is innocent, and he was just a small handyman before following Zhao Changshi, it seems that he was transferred to the emperor's dormitory because he helped Zhao Changshi, and then because he was smart and clever, he did a few things for Zhao Changshi, so he was transferred to him close, and because he saved Zhao Changshou's life, he worshipped Zhao Changshou as his father-in-law, and only entered our East Palace because of this relationship." ”

Ruo Ao Ziyan nodded.

"The lady said that Xiao Zhengzi is her person, but have you checked when they were in touch?"

"Qingpu is derelict in his duties. Because the personnel around the princess are all in charge of Si Qin, I don't want to ask here, I don't know the specifics, I only heard that it was a dark line that she spent money to send into the emperor's dormitory before, and then maybe the princess made a lot of efforts to let him enter Zhao Changshi's eyes, and then ascended to the East Palace through the princess and entered the East Palace. ”

This time was too busy, Qingpu didn't bother much about the small palace people, and after checking it, there was nothing special, turning it over and over, it was nothing more than those things that the whole palace knew, plus he was a princess.

Thinking that it was his own person, he didn't go to check it carefully.

"Childe, is there anything wrong with this little Masako?"

"It's okay, I just always feel like I've seen him somewhere......"

"There are a lot of people in this palace, and the son has a good memory, so it's not surprising that I've seen him somewhere. Kiyora said.

Ruo Ao Ziyan nodded.

It's just that every time he sees Xiao Zhengzi's ordinary face, he can't help but think of it again.

I always felt that he should have met him in a very special place.

But it's strange that he can't remember it all along.

It's probably that Xiao Zhengzi's face is too ordinary, so ordinary that people don't pay the slightest attention.

"Let's go, it's time for Huang'er to wake up. ”

After receiving the doubts in his heart and the secret report in his hand, Ruo Ziyan turned around and walked towards the dormitory.

Outside the heavy snow, the weather is freezing, the fire in the East Palace is red-hot, coupled with the warm quilt, Mi Huang lazily lay on the bed, not wanting to get up at all, finally another year has passed, think about this year has been a long time.

It was so long that she thought she couldn't wait, couldn't wait for this day. In this way, you don't have to think about anything, you don't have to worry about anything, you just have to sleep with your head down.

Days like this.

It's so comfortable!

But someone just took a peacock feather and flicked it on her face, and the disturbed Mi Huang waved his hand and muttered, "Don't make noise, let me sleep again!" I haven't rested much in a year, I want to sleep well, sleep enough for a whole year......"

"Huang'er, don't sleep, let's go to the peony garden for a walk in a while, we've been sleeping in bed for a long time, we have to move our muscles and bones. ”

Ruo Ao Ziyan threw the peacock feather in his hand back into the vase on the floor, and bent down to look at the phoenix lying on the bed and refusing to get up.

The snow-white neck glowed with a delicate white outside the quilt.

His eyes couldn't help but glow with a fiery light.

"Are you sure you don't get up?"

"Or I'll lie down with you again, I'll get up too early in the morning anyway. ”

Ruo Ao Ziyan's voice nodded seductively and smiled, "Now that the court is resting, it's okay for us to sleep together." ”

Mi Huang suddenly became extremely depressed.

Then he sat up unwillingly with the quilt, looked at him beside the bed, and muttered, "What are you doing in the garden early in the morning? ”

Ruo Ziyan took a loose obscene dress and put it on for Mi Huang, and then wrapped her layer by layer like a brown child, put on her clothes, hooked her lips and smiled, "Didn't you say you wanted to see the snow? It's snowing outside, and you can't get up yet?"

Hearing this, a hint of surprise crossed his eyes, and he raised his eyes to look at the silver-covered world outside the window, and then got up with a grunt and ran out of the dormitory.

A smile flashed in Ao Ziyan's eyes, and before he could catch her, he saw the woman quickly run out like a gust of wind, and then followed out, watching her stand on the high jade steps, shouting to the entire East Palace, "It's snowing, it's snowing again......

"Another year has passed!"

The sound of laughter like silver bells echoed in the sky above the East Palace, which was like a crystal palace, and floated far away in this heaven and earth.

The secretary covered her mouth and chuckled, "Whenever it snows, the lady is so happy. ”

Mi Huang nodded, "Because we've had another year." ”

How many years are there in life?

No one knows how long they will live.

Every extra year is a stolen blessing.

Lucky this is the first life, everything is over.

The painters also nodded their heads again and again.

This year, they waited too long until the woman with a bright smile like the phoenix of the Nine Heavens came back, and only then did they wait until everyone was getting better and better.

They finally came out of the hellish world.

Now it's so good!

The dazzling snow light, at this time, crossed the golden cornices, fell on her white forehead, on the feather eyelashes, conjured up a bright circle of light, shining, like a phoenix flying, landing on that beautiful face, printed with a pair of wings soaring for nine days, slowly spreading its wings and soaring.

Ruo Ao Ziyan gently took her hand.

With a smile, she looked at the whole world and let her embrace it.

Wen Sheng smiled, "Next year will be better, and it will get better and better year after year." ”

Mi Huang looked at him, a pair of bottomless eyes suddenly clear, shallow and gentle like water, and like a shining silver bronze mirror reflecting his appearance.

Suddenly, the corner of his eye bent, and he smiled, "Ruo Ao Ziyan, let's go to the snow battle! I haven't played it for many years!"

Ruo Ziyan frowned slightly when he heard this, and said in a deep voice in annoyance, "These are all children's play, not suitable for us...... And you're pregnant......"

"No...... Then I'll watch you play, can you play for me?"

Mi Huang looked at him with a pair of bright eyes, holding his hand, just like holding the hand of the queen mother when he was a child, like a suddenly willful child shaking desperately.

"No!" Ruo Ziyan resolutely refused.

"No, no......"

……

In the vast white ice and snow, the vigorous cold plum blossoms, and the bright yellow or fiery red flowers bloom in full swing in this white world.

Hearing only a "whoosh", a snow ball flew over with a plum branch and landed in the clearing.

Someone was extremely angry and said, "Qingpu, you stand still for me, let me throw it!"

"Haha...... Lady, do you think the pony is still called a snowball fight?"

Qingpu, who was hiding behind the plum tree, came out like a spirit monkey, exposed a head, and said to Mi Huang without fear.

Dressed in a thick cloak, Mi Huang sat in the peony pavilion, quietly bent down and picked up a ball of snow from the plum tree and threw it at him in his hand, but the man seemed to have eyes behind his back, and he dodged it lightly, turned around and twisted his eyebrows and said, "Huang'er, said okay, you watched me have a snowball fight." ”

The cloak fluttered gently in the wind, and the slightly bulging lower abdomen was revealed, and the woman smiled brightly and pouted, "But the colt, didn't you just say that you were standing and let people throw it?"

"Just stand and let me throw it twice. ”

"You see that they are running too fast, I can't even hit, will you let me throw them twice?" Pointing to the fast thief Si Jian and them, Mi Huang, who was sitting alone in the pavilion, said dissatisfiedly.

Si Shu also poked his head out from behind Qingpu and said with a smile, "Master Ma, just stand and let our wife throw it twice?"

Everyone was bold and said, "Horse, why don't we all throw you twice, and you just stand and let the lady throw twice?"

Unbridled laughter was in the air.

Shaking each other's heartstrings.

A black cat quickly got out of the pavilion at some point, and its fat paws quickly flew across the snow, falling the sound of "zizi" snowflakes, and rows of snow-white feet fell in the snow and rushed towards the snowballs thrown by the woman.

Then he probed his paws, and used his small paws to hold the snowball at Ruo Aoziyan's feet, and spun around.

Suddenly, there was a "snap", and I don't know how it did it, the snowball flew out between its claws and landed on the man's black.

"Haha, the black ball hit you!

The woman stood in the pavilion in the distance, clapping her hands and laughing.

The man looked annoyed and lowered his head and kicked the little thing at his feet, "Go play!"

The black ball blinked, crouched on the snow and looked up at the man.

Completely unaware that it had fallen out of favor at this point.

also flatteringly "meow" and screamed.

I rubbed my head again.

Rubbed his big fur all the way.

"Blackball, you're awesome!"

Mi Huang smiled, walked out of the pavilion, picked up the black ball and raised his black claws at Ruo Ao Ziyan, showing off his might.

"What a terrible name!"

Ruo Ao Ziyan shrugged the tip of his nose in disgust.

"It's better than your black Yan. ”

Mi Huang pursed his lips, really worried about the name he would give the child in the future.

Yan Bing, Mo Yan, Black Yan......

That's how narcissistic it is.

All the pets have the same name as him.
