Chapter 5: The Snow Queen

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Miss Gillian is not willing to have dinner first, she must wait for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come back and eat together." The palace people came to report it.

Li Yuankang put the box away and was stunned, "What time is it, and she still doesn't plan to eat it?" Dare to be satisfied, the sugar cake has been eaten during the day? ”

However, Li Yuankang still rushed back quickly, and before leaving, he said goodbye to the eldest princess.

The eldest princess said: "This kind of thing happened to the Queen Mother, recently, I am not in good health, Gillian will be handed over to you to take care of, temporarily live in your palace, although it is inconvenient for you men and women to live together, but everyone knows that the Queen Mother has given Gillian Xu to you." is criticized by others, and if you marry her in the future, it will be fine. ”

Li Yuankang was silent, his eyes like ink jade flashing with a dim and uncertain light.

The eldest princess thought that Li Yuankang disliked Gillian and added: "Actually, Gillian is very kind, she became stupid, not because she was willing, but because she was victimized." When her parents were alive, they also saved your life, and for this kindness, even if you can't find the murderer for her, you have to be good to Gillian. Gillian is simple and well-behaved, if you have been with her for a long time, you will understand. ”

In front of Li Yuankang's eyes, the shadow of a tall man appeared.

That was Zhu Ajiao's father, Suzaku.

Suzaku was once the general of Zhenguo, the powerful border pass, the war achievements, and the eldest princess's dead horse Zhu Chang, is a cousin.

Counting, Zhu Ajiao is also the cousin and niece of the eldest princess.

Zhu Chang was given death by the emperor, and the Suzaku family died in the border pass, and the entire Zhu family survived, only Zhu Ajiao was alone, and it was rumored that Zhu Ajiao's brother also escaped by luck, but no one knew where he went.

The eldest princess has been looking for Zhu Ajiao's brother, but she has found nothing.

The north wind was howling, Li Yuankang blinked, nodded and said, "Don't worry, eldest princess, even if I don't like her, I will take good care of her." ”

The eldest princess nodded, and couldn't help coughing, Li Yuankang said this, she was relieved.

Zhu Gillian is the only blood left by the Zhu family, if the eldest princess can't protect Gillian, even if the eldest princess is dead, what face does she have to meet her husband in the underworld?

What's more, her husband still died at the hands of the emperor.

When Li Yuankang came back, the moon stars were scarce.

The night sky after the snow is taller and bluer than usual.

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by two snowmen.

Two snowmen, one like a boy and the other like a girl, actually held hands and leaned together.

Li Yuankang was stunned, in the palace, who would dare to pile up such an ambiguous thing so presumptuously?

was about to get angry, but saw two girls standing behind the snowman, under the peach blossom tree.

One is Zhu Ajiao, and the other is listening to the piano.

The peach trees have no flowers and no green leaves, only snow.

On the branches, there are also a lot of "hearts" formed by dog tails and grass.

Li Yuankang suddenly felt so interesting.

No one has ever piled up two snowmen at the door, hung such a dog's tail grass on the branches of a withered peach tree, and woven the dog's tail grass into such a heart-shaped shape.

Needless to say, these were made by Zhu Ajiao again.

Zhu Ajiao didn't know that Li Yuankang had returned, blinking her dark and bright eyes, and blowing hard at the snow foam on the tree.

"Shhh......h It's like there's a lot of enmity with that snow foam.

However, the snow foam did not move.

Zhu Ajiao was anxious, and she raised her feet hard, and even blew hard in order to pin her stomach in.

However, the snow foam still did not move.

Zhu Ajiao was about to open her mouth to cry, when suddenly, a cool air blew from the back of her head, brushed her cheeks diagonally, and fell on the snow foam.

And the snow foam fell from the trees.

Zhu Ajiao thought it was blown off by the wind, stretched out her arms, looked up at her round face, and smiled sweetly.

Actually, the breath just now was blown by Li Yuankang.

Seeing that Zhu Ajiao wanted the snow foam to fall so much, Li Yuankang just helped her casually, and he didn't expect Zhu Ajiao to smile so happily.

Li Yuankang has not seen such a sweet, scheming smile for a long time.

The palace is full of traps, Li Yuankang has to wear a mask to see people every day, and his heart seems to be forever tense on the strings and cannot be relaxed.

And most of the people he saw were like him, they never smiled, and even if they laughed, they were fake.

Suddenly, his heart warmed. But I also felt inexplicably a little sad, and I didn't expect that he was not as good as a fool.

A fool can laugh so unwittingly, but he can't.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is back." The sharp-eyed Tingqin hurriedly saluted.

Zhu Ajiao turned around at this time, but when she saw Li Yuankang immediately turned her back, she looked unhappy, "Hmph, Brother Prince came back so late, I was hungry." Brother Prince's words don't count, he said that he would accompany me to dinner. ”

Li Yuankang said: "What, is your stomach really hungry?" Is there so much sugar cake during the day, not enough for you to eat? ”

Zhu Ajiao was stunned, what? was unexpectedly recognized by Li Yuankang, she wasn't hungry at all?

No, this scene can't be played in vain!

So, he said even more angrily: "Brother Prince is really annoying! Why expose Gillian's lies? Didn't Gillian lie so that the prince's brother would bring more delicious food to Gillian? Dinner is too unpalatable, Gillian don't eat it! ”

Seeing Zhu Ajiao like this, Li Yuankang finally couldn't help laughing, although it was only a shallow smile at the corner of his mouth, but it was not easy for Li Yuankang, who had never been smiling, "Dinner is not delicious, so what do you want to eat?" ”

Zhu Ajiao tilted her head and thought about it, suddenly clapped her palms, and said with a smile: "I want to eat hibiscus cake!" I heard that the Chan Kum Kee hibiscus cake in the capital is the best, and the prince's brother asked him to buy it for me overnight, okay? ”

Li Yuankang actually nodded, "No problem!" ”

"Thank you, Brother Prince!" Zhu Ajiao hugged Li Yuankang's arm, "Gillian has a supper!" ”

Li Yuankang's face was slightly red, but he didn't shake off Zhu Ajiao's hand.

"Whoever put such two snowmen at the door, so hurtful, bewitching the prince, this person should be put to death!" Suddenly, a vicious female voice came from the door.

Zhu Ajiao looked over.

The woman who came in was in her thirties, dressed in a plain dress, but a large rectangular jade jue hung around her waist.

This jade jue, in the palace, is a symbol of power.

It can be said that with this jade jue, it is equivalent to the emperor speaking.

She is the lady lady.

The crown prince lost his mother very early, and the emperor sent Concubine Shuniang to guard Li Yuankang.

and the crown prince, maintaining a superficial adoptive mother-son relationship.

At this time, when Concubine Shuniang saw this snowman, and then looked at Li Yuankang and Zhu Ajiao, she understood everything.
