197 First snow

Shen Wu'an and Qu Wurong didn't stay in the Rui Wang's Mansion for too long, and after a few people talked for a while, they left to go back to the palace, and they didn't even agree that An Lehou and Qu Yizhu wanted to leave them for dinner together.

At this time, when she had just arrived in Hai, there were still thousands of lights in Tiandu City, Qu Wurong was sitting in the imperial chariot, looking at the street scene outside the imperial chariot through the fluttering gauze curtains, and Shen Wu'an was lying beside her, his head resting on her legs and closing his eyes to recuperate.

I don't know how long it took, just when Qu Wurong thought he was asleep, Shen Wu'an suddenly asked, "What kind of dumb riddle were you two sisters playing just now?" ”

Qu Wurong retracted his gaze and looked down at his side face, "It's nothing, it's just that the missing pearl sent a post to the bachelor's mansion before getting married, but the family didn't care about the so-called family affection at all." ”

is such a big thing as getting married, but no one from her family is present, although Qu Yizhu doesn't say anything in her mouth, she still feels sad in her heart, right? After all, she used to be so eager to get Qu Xiaoliang's father's love, even if she lived like a subordinate in the bachelor's mansion, she never thought of leaving.

Shen Wu'an was silent for a moment when she heard this, and then said coldly: "As early as when that incident happened, she should have given up all thoughts about that family!" ”

"yes!" Qu Wurong nodded approvingly, "Who would have thought that a father would be so ruthless that he wouldn't even attend his daughter's wedding?" ”

If it was Qu Wurong herself, she might not even send a wedding card to Qu Xiaoliang, after all, she is no longer the original Qu Wurong, and Qu Xiaoliang does not have the so-called "nurturing grace" for her; But Qu Yizhu is different, no matter what kind of grievances she received in the bachelor's mansion, Qu Xiaoliang raised her in the end, and the blood bond between them is not something that can be broken.

There was silence for a while, and after a long while, Shen Wu'an remembered something and said angrily: "At the beginning, your father wanted to dissolve the marriage contract between us in order to climb up to Ouyang Xu, if it wasn't for Shen Duanlang's marriage later, I'm afraid I really won't be able to marry you!" ”

Qu Wurong smiled slightly when he heard this, "Can you really watch me marry Ouyang Xu?" ”

"Of course not!" Shen Wu'an replied without even thinking about it, "If the things that followed didn't happen, your father really married you to Ouyang Xu, then I would rob you back!" ”

Hearing his domineering declaration of "snatching relatives", Qu Wurong felt a little crying and laughing, but her heart seemed to be like a warm current, she stroked Shen Wuan's face with her hand, and said softly but firmly: "So our marriage is predestined by God, no matter how many detours I have taken, I will definitely marry you in the end!" ”

A month later.

After entering December, the weather in Tiandu City is getting colder and colder, fortunately, Jin Yu and Liangyuan have prepared the winter clothes for several people early, and a few days ago, the Internal Affairs Office also sent Qu Wurong two mink fur cloaks, the soft fur blocked the invasion of the cold, so that she would not have too hard this winter.

"Ah, it's snowing!" Yang Chun, who was standing in the courtyard and directing the little palace maids to clean, suddenly felt something fall on her face, it felt cold and cold, at first she thought it was raining, but she reached out to catch it, but found that it was a white and flawless snowflake that fell on her palm.

Her shout was not small, and several other girls heard it and ran to the yard one after another to meet the first snow of the year, even Qu Wurong, who was sitting on the edge of the stove reading a book, also put down the book in his hand, walked out of the hall, raised his head and looked at the snowy sky, "It's really snowing!" ”

"Miss, why didn't you come out without a cloak?" Turning around and seeing that she was only wearing thin clothes, Jin Yu hurriedly ran into the hall and took out a thick cloak and wrapped it around her shoulders, "What if it's frozen?" ”

Qu Wurong didn't argue, just raised his hand to pull the cloak tighter, and then looked at the falling snowflakes again, "I told the emperor a few days ago, why hasn't it snowed yet?" I don't think I've just said that just a few days later, this first snow fell. ”

"They must have heard your complaints, Miss, and couldn't bear to let you down, so they fell today." After listening to her words, Jin Yu couldn't help but joke with a smile.

"Poor mouth!" Qu Wurong glared at her with disgust, but didn't say anything more.

The snow fell heavier and heavier, and after a while, a thin layer of white accumulated on the ground, such a scene reminded Qu Wurong of the scene when she lived in Wuliang Mountain in her previous life, when the snow on Wuliang Mountain was unmelted all year round, she stood at the door of her house, whenever she raised her head, she could see a piece of snow.

After going down the mountain, I don't often see that kind of scenery anymore, although it snows every year in Tiandu City, but no matter how heavy the snow is, within a few days after each fall, the snow has melted away without a trace, and I want to see the scene on the infinite mountain again, but I can't do it.

"!" Yangchun's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, interrupting Qu Wurong's memories.

Qu Wurong turned his head and looked at Yang Chun, who had already run back from the yard to the eaves, there was a layer of white on the girl's body and head, and she was patting the snowflakes on her body at this time, and said to herself: "It's so cold today, why don't we eat a warm pot at night." ”

It was a good idea, and as soon as she said it, she was approved by several of the other girls, but in the end, the person who came up with the idea was still uneasy, so several of them all turned their eyes to it.

Being watched by a few of them so enthusiastically, Qu Wurong felt that if he didn't agree to them, it would definitely be a very cruel thing for them, thinking that this kind of weather was indeed suitable for a bunch of people to gather around and chat while eating a warm pot, so he nodded and agreed.

With her approval, several girls cheered happily, and couldn't wait to prepare what they needed to eat the warm pot in the evening, completely forgetting that it had just been lunch for a long time, and there were still several hours before dinner!

But Qu Wurong didn't stop them, it was rare that everyone was so happy, so she didn't hit them, and after enjoying the falling snow for a while, she turned around and walked into the hall and continued to read to pass the time.

When Shen Wu'an came back, he was also very interested when he heard that he was going to eat a warm pot at night, which made Qu Wurong secretly glad that he was not right to refuse Yangchun's suggestion.

There are many people who pay attention to eating hot pots, so Shen Wu'an was especially kind to all the palace maids and eunuchs in Xiangxue Hall that night to eat together, but despite this, those people didn't dare to really eat at the same table with the emperor, so Yangchun and Bai Xue commanded people to make several warm pots, and even then they could eat lively.

A few girls naturally dined at the same table with Shen Wu'an and Qu Wurong, anyway, when they were in Rui Wang's Mansion before, they had already been used to it, and if even they abided by the rules and refused to join them, then only Shen Wu'an and Qu Wurong would be left on this table, and the original lively atmosphere would be gone.

The snowflakes outside the window are still falling tirelessly, and a thick layer has accumulated on the ground, and looking out from the door, the entire Xiangxue Hall seems to be wrapped in a white coat, lining the night brightly.

Qu Wurong took a chopstick dish from the steaming hot pot and put it in Shen Wu'an's bowl, and asked casually: "In the past few days, haven't those ministers mentioned the matter of letting you choose a concubine?" ”

Hearing her question, Shen Wu'an's hand that was about to pick up the vegetables paused slightly, as if he remembered something unpleasant, his brows furrowed fiercely, and he said coldly: "Don't pay attention to them!" ”

"Things always have to be resolved, and if you always press it down like this or ignore it, it won't help." Qu Wurong said as he picked up vegetables for him, but he didn't notice that his bowl was also empty, "I heard that those people in the palace have also been a little uneasy in the past few days, what do you think?" ”

Shen Wu'an stopped her from holding the vegetables with her own hand, picked up the bowl in front of her and dialed half of it into her bowl, and then replied: "You don't have to ask me about the harem, you have the final say." ”

"Hmm." Qu Wurong replied, but did not continue the topic.

The two of them didn't deliberately lower their voices when they spoke, so a few girls at the same table could also hear it clearly, Yangchun swallowed the food in his mouth, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why are those people so annoying?" The emperor is obviously the only one in his heart, they don't agree with and oppose it, but they want to force the emperor to marry someone he doesn't like, is there something wrong with his brain? ”

Several of the other girls nodded in agreement.

Shen Wu'an also nodded when he heard this, "Yes, I also think they are too annoying!" ”

But as soon as his words fell, he was glared at by Qu Wurong, really, does he remember that he is the emperor? Can you say anything casually?

After glaring at that, Qu Wurong raised his chopsticks and knocked on Yangchun's head again, and scolded: "So many delicious foods can't stop your mouth!" Have you forgotten how Jì promised me last time? ”

Yang Chun flattened his mouth and touched his sore forehead, but he didn't dare to say anything, lowered his head and continued to eat his own food, and he wanted to bury his little face in the bowl.

After teaching the open-mouthed girl, Qu Wurong moved her eyes to the people around her again, but before she could say anything, Shen Wu'an took a chopstick dish and sent it to her bowl, blocking her mouth by the way, "Xiao Rong'er, this dish is delicious, you can try it!" ”

Qu Wurong glanced at him angrily when he saw this, but he really didn't say anything more.

This warm pot was eaten for a full hour, and at the end of the meal, everyone hugged their stomachs and shouted, seeing that a few girls were almost unable to stand up, Shen Wuan waved his hand and decided to take everyone out for a walk to eat.

"Let's go get the umbrella!" Hearing him say that he was going out, several girls no longer held their stomachs to "stand up", and stood up and left the dining room, and after a while, each came back with an oil-paper umbrella in their hands.

Qu Wurong glanced outside, and saw that the momentum of the falling snow had not weakened at all, she was afraid that Shen Wu'an would catch a cold if she was exposed to the cold, so she said: "It's so late, don't go out, just take a walk in the Xiangxue Palace." ”

Hearing her words, Shen Wu'an pondered for a moment, and felt that it was indeed a little inappropriate to work in the middle of the night to mobilize the crowd, so he nodded, "It's okay." With that, he took her hand and walked outside.
