Leng Xue'er took her mother's hand, asked her mother to sit down in front of the dressing table, and asked with a smile: "Mother, are you reluctant to give up your daughter?" Why don't you sleep with me tonight, and my mother and I can have a good chat. ”

The Ice and Snow Queen looked at her daughter with a loving face, the corners of her eyes suddenly wet, she gently hugged her daughter, and said, "It's not your nervous father, he asked you to go to the temple and said that he had something to tell you." ”

Leng Xue'er was a little stunned: "What do you have to say in the temple?" Say no here? ”

The Ice Queen smiled while inspecting her daughter's dowry, "He's been busy preparing your dowry these days, and tonight he has stopped, so he may have remembered something important to instruct!" Xue'er, your father really loves you, tomorrow you look at the dowry he prepared for you, and you will understand in your heart. ”

Leng Xue'er was stunned, lowered her head, and muttered, "I didn't say that my father didn't love me." ”

She casually picked up the ivory comb on the dressing table and played with it, her mood became depressed, since she was a child, her father was so good to her cousin that she even forgot that I was his biological daughter.

When she was a child, she had a fire in her heart, and she always loved to trouble her cousin behind her parents' back, and snatched all the good things that her father gave her cousin, and when she heard her cousin crying sadly about this, her mood was much more comfortable, of course, she sternly warned her cousin not to go to her father to complain, otherwise there would be a better look

She raised her head, looked at her mother with a face full of grievances, and said, "Mother, why did my father give her that snow sword?" That's the most powerful magic weapon in our family, and it should belong to me. ”

The Ice and Snow Queen's face changed slightly, and she said in a deep voice: "No, that sword belongs to Mei'er, and it is the sword used by your aunt when she was alive." ”

Leng Xue'er asked in surprise, "That sword belongs to my aunt?" Mother, what kind of person is my aunt? Why haven't I heard you mention your aunt's past over the years? ”

Her hand unconsciously touched her cheek, three years ago, she was angry for a while, and she caused a loud slap from her cousin without choosing her words, and afterwards she was not comforted by her father's words, and she was locked in a small black roof that night to think about it.

When her father came to the little dark room in the middle of the night, she was so angry that she turned her head and ignored him. Her father stood behind her for a long time before he said in a deep voice: "Xue'er, the person I have been protecting is you." Your cousin, you don't need me to protect you at all. ”

She turned around in astonishment, her father's eyes glowing a little in the night: "Xue'er, don't provoke your cousin, just now you have slipped around the ghost gate, do you know the way?" ”

She looked at her father in a daze, and her father sighed: "Reflect on yourself, I received a letter from Zhan Lin tonight, he hopes to be a guest at the villa in two months, Xue'er, Zhan Lin is a good man, you have to catch it." ”

She was puzzled and wanted to ask clearly, but her breath was still blocked, so she just hung her head and didn't say a word. By the time he looked up, his father had already pushed the door open.

For this matter, Mei'er volunteered to pray for a cold wind on the snow-capped mountain for a year, that day her father took Mei'er off the snowy mountain, she looked at her with disdain, her cousin's face was pale and haggard, and her body was even smaller, it seemed that the days on the mountain were not easy, at that moment, her heart shook slightly.

The Ice and Snow Queen's eyes showed a look of amazement, she stroked her forehead and sighed: "When I came to the palace, your aunt had been missing for several years, and at that time, I heard the palace ladies often mention that Princess Yanyu is not only a beautiful woman with a beautiful national color, but also has great energy in herself, and is a leading figure in the family of kings. ”

The Ice Queen stopped, she glanced at her daughter with a curious face, and said, "Your father knows best about your aunt's past, but he never said much, so that's all I know." All right! Tomorrow is a good day for you, we won't talk about it, come, come with me to the temple, your father may be in a hurry. ”

Leng Xue'er glared at her mother and pursed her lips, but then smiled: "Yes, let's go!" ”

The snow path is secluded, the red plums on both sides are blooming, and the mother and daughter step on the petals of the road to the temple.

Leng Xue'er pushed open the heavy door of the temple and saw her father kneeling in front of the snowy and misty altar.

The Ice and Snow King glanced sideways at his daughter, the warmth in his eyes flowed, and he said warmly: "Xue'er, come here, kowtow to your ancestors." ”

Leng Xue'er kowtowed respectfully three times as she said. After his daughter finished kowtowing, the Ice and Snow King also kowtowed three times to the icon, he looked at the icon on the altar with reverent eyes, stretched his hands forward, and a crystal clear hexagonal snowflake appeared in his palm, and the white hazy brilliance floated around the snowflake, looking very mysterious.

He carefully put the snowflake in his daughter's hand, and the snowflake swirled into Leng Xue'er's palm, the Ice and Snow King looked solemn, and said in a deep voice: "Xue'er, this is the snow god inherited from my ice and snow family for generations, you must take good care of it, the second child he gave birth to is the twenty-third heir of my ice and snow family, when he reaches the age of eighteen, you will hand over this snow god to him, and let him return to this land and inherit the mantle of my family, do you know the way?" ”

Leng Xue'er bowed her head and replied, "Yes!" ”

She looked at the little bit of brilliance in her palm, wondered in her heart, and asked, "Father, why don't you wait for him to grow up and hand it over to him yourself?" ”

The Ice and Snow King's expression was slightly gloomy, he stretched out his hand to caress his daughter's hair, and muttered: "People are old, some things should be told as soon as possible, so as not to forget them when you get confused." Okay, let's go back and get some rest! ”

Leng Xue'er looked up at her father, her father's expression was strange tonight, she felt uneasy, and said, "Father, you have nothing to do, right?" ”

The Ice and Snow King picked up his wife with his hand, and the Ice and Snow Queen smiled and said: "Your father is really true, I told him, this matter is not in a hurry, it will be a long time coming, but he just doesn't listen, it's so late, he won't let you rest well." I'm going to drag you here. ”

The Ice and Snow King laughed a few times: "Go back, you have to get up early tomorrow." ”

Leng Xue'er saluted her father and bowed her head in response: "Yes"

When she stood up, her arm shook, and the sachet in her sleeve fell off, and she quickly bent down to pick it up.

The Ice Queen asked, "What is this?" ”

Leng Xue'er replied casually: "It's a gift from Mei'er, I haven't had time to see it yet, I don't know what Lu Dao is." ”

She untied the sachet, glanced inside, and with a sigh, took out a bead the size of her eyes.

The beads were dark and inconspicuous, Leng Xue'er looked at this ordinary bead, and suddenly felt unhappy: "Tomorrow is my wedding date, but she sent this kind of black thing, which is really uneasy and kind." ”

The Ice King reached out and took the bead, looked at it over and over for a moment, put it to his nose and sniffed it, his expression turned to shock.

He held the beads, his eyes were shining, he looked at his daughter and smiled: "This gift is great, you have to thank your cousin well tomorrow." ”

Leng Xue'er snorted lightly.

Seeing his daughter's dull face, the Ice and Snow King shook his head and sighed, "You don't know what this is?" Let me tell you, this is the cloud dragon ball, wearing it on the body can ward off a hundred evils, can cure a hundred poisons, you are good to keep it, this bead can protect your life safely, far can benefit your descendants for a hundred generations. This gift from my cousin to you is a thousand times more valuable than all the dowry I have prepared for you! ”

When the Ice and Snow Queen heard this, her face changed slightly, she stared at the pitch-black bead, and said in a trembling voice: "Cloud Dragon Ball? But the dragon balls in the body of the legendary Western dragon? Where did Mei'er get such a precious and rare thing? ”

The Ice and Snow King glanced at his wife and said in a low voice, "I don't know what to do!" ”

He hesitated for a moment, then turned his head and said softly to his daughter: "Okay, you know that this bead is precious, Xue'er, you always thought that I was partial to my cousin and didn't care for you, in fact, good boy, do you understand?" Father has always loved you. ”

Leng Xue'er looked at her father in a daze, and the Ice and Snow King handed the beads to her daughter and said softly, "Go back and rest!" ”

Leng Xue'er bowed her head and said, "Yes." ”

She put the beads back into the sachet and said, "Mei'er said that she got this bead by chance when she traveled a few years ago, and as for how she got it, she didn't elaborate, do you want to ask?" ”

The Ice and Snow King was stunned and said in a trembling voice, "Has she gone out?" Where did she go? How do I not know the way? How does this kid talk to her?"

He seemed to remember some heart-wrenching past, sighed heavily, and turned to walk out of the temple.

The Ice Queen looked at her husband's back in surprise, and she said to her daughter, "Go back and rest." ”

She lifted her skirt and hurried out of the temple to chase after her husband.

The Ice King heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind him and stopped.

The Ice and Snow Queen gasped and ran closer, grabbed her husband's robe, and said, "Lord, what's wrong with you?" ”

The Ice King looked apologetic: "I scared you with a momentary gaffe." ”

"Does this bead have anything to do with Mei'er's life experience?"

The Ice and Snow King's face changed, his lips trembled slightly, and he turned his head to look around: "Madam, Mei'er's life experience, I really don't know, I don't know the origin of this bead, this is the truth." ”

He looked back at the temple hidden in the dark night, and his voice was low: "Xue'er can get married safely tomorrow, I'm very happy, really." ”
