Chapter 51: A Beautiful View in the Snow

After a night banquet, everyone said goodbye to the emperor and went back to their respective homes, and Liu Bang was also a little drunk and went to the Yuzao Palace to rest with the help of the eunuchs. The moonlight was faint, the air was filled with a cold atmosphere, and the whirring northwest wind blew fiercely, as if people should not stay out for long, and they would freeze their whole bodies in a moment, and the violent northwest wind howled and blew all night.

At about the right time, the prince's hall has been lit by candles, and the prince is going to Shanglin Yuan for morning practice as usual. 'Squeak-' The door of the hall opened, and then a cold wind blew in, and An Delu ran in with a hand stove and said to the prince, "Your Highness, wear thicker, it's snowing outside, can you go to Shanglin Yuan alone today?" Your cough isn't getting better. ”

Liu Ying got up happily, put the hand stove on the case, and asked An Delu, "It's snowing?" ”

An Delu nodded, and took a thick robe and draped it over Liu Ying. Liu Ying was overjoyed and immediately ran out of the hall, reflecting the light of the withered yellow palace lanterns, and saw the ethereal snowflakes falling from the sky like catkins in spring. The unhurried and unhurried snowflakes seemed to secretly show her group graceful figure, and finally the world waited for her arrival, flickering and falling under the light of the palace lamp, like a nine-day fairy. Liu Ying stretched out her hand to enjoy the coldness and purity brought by the snowflakes, and as soon as it landed on his hand, it melted into his palm, Liu Ying smiled with joy like a child, ran in the courtyard with her arms open, raised her head and let the snowflakes caress her. Everything was silent, only the sound of snowflakes 'chirping' on the ground, and Liu Ying stepped on the ground with the snow creaking, but it was a good feeling for him. Andelu saw that the prince was enjoying the caress of the snow outside the palace regardless of his body, and remembered that he was in very bad health, so he hurriedly went down the steps to call him back, and stopped without taking three steps, thinking about the prince's unhappiness in the past, and seeing that he was like a child now, Andelu relieved him to be happy.

"Ansheren, help me bring it to Xun, and go out to the palace." Liu Ying excitedly shouted at Andelu.

Anderlu was confused, and after a slight pause, he still brought it to him according to his words. Liu Ying happily put Xun in her sleeve and explained that An Delu didn't have to follow, and that An Delu had already walked out of a good distance before he had time to react.

Yuzao Palace, Fuyaju. In the haze, a burst of elegant melody and eternal charm woke Jing Tian up with a sound like flowing water. Listen carefully, it's familiar music, so familiar Xun. Jing Tian opened the quilt and listened carefully, and when he heard the half-middle school, his face was happy, and he got up from the couch with a grunt, simply combed his hair in a bun, washed his face, thickened his clothes, and the smile on his face was always cheerful and sweet, and he took the palace lamp and walked out. As soon as he came out of the hall, "Snow-" Jing Tian shouted in surprise, it turned out that the snowflakes had fallen all night, and they were already a few inches thick when they were illuminated by the palace lamp. Jing Qian ran down the steps with a smile, stepping on the squeaky sound of snowflakes, and running outside the walls of the Fish Algae Palace with the sound of squeaking snowflakes. The sound of Xun never stopped, Jing Tian followed the sound, raised the palace lamp in his hand and shone it, and vaguely saw a man blowing Xun. He walked over with a grin, "Taizhen." With a white breath in his mouth, he said with a smile, "When I heard the song of "Mountains and Flowing Water", I knew it was you." ”

Liu Ying put down the Xun in his hand, smiled at Jing Tian, who was walking towards him, and also walked towards Jing Tian, and said with a smile, "It snowed last night, and I got up early today today, I don't know if it will disturb you." After a long silence, Liu Ying glanced at Jing Tian and said a little jerky, "I want to see the snow scene with you." Jing Tian smiled sweetly at him, Liu Ying saw that she did not disagree, and her mind was slightly the same as himself, and she laughed jerkily like a teenager in her first love. The two smiled happily at each other, and Liu Ying took Jing Tian's hand and ran away regardless of all etiquette. Liu Ying turned around and smiled at Jing Ting, Jing Tian also smiled happily at Liu Ying, the laughter of the two of them was as cheerful as a bell and swept away the entire Yuzao Palace, but it was so pure and crisp. In the snow, a black robe, a red uniform, two lines of cheerful footsteps, a ring-like laughter, a beautiful scenery.

Jing asked, "Where are we going?" ”

Liu Ying turned around and said, "You'll know when you arrive." Smiled at her, continued to hold her hand, felt that her hand was extremely cold, Liu Ying thought about it again and again and then took it upon herself to cover Jing Ting's hand in her chest and warm it, Jing Tian looked at Liu Ying sweetly and laughed, Liu Ying's eyes were funny, and she made a naughty expression, so she also smiled. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, Liu Ying took Jing Tian to speed up her pace, and from time to time she put her other hand on the top of Jing Tian's head to cover her from the snow.

"Long time no see, are you busy?" Jing asked.

Liu Ying said, "Recently, there have been a lot of things in Chang'an, and sometimes I go out to inspect with the emperor, and I don't have a chance to see you." As he spoke, he coughed violently a few times, thinking that it was okay, but the more he coughed, the heavier he became. Jing Tian hurriedly said that he hurriedly went back to find the imperial doctor to see, Liu Ying said that it was okay, it was estimated that he had a cold last night, and laughed that the eldest husband could not stand this suffering. Jing was half-convinced, anxious and distressed. Walking all the way, Jing Tian's face became more solemn, looking at the direction in which he and Liu Ying were going, which was the direction of going to the Lone Star Terrace in the north of Weiyang Palace, Jing Tian hurriedly grabbed Liu Ying and solemnly advised, "Lone Star Terrace is not the place we are going. ”

When Jing Tian said this, he actually forgot that he was the crown prince, of course people from the royal family could go to Lone Star Terrace, but it was absolutely impossible for others to go. Liu Ying immediately smiled uncomfortably, and suddenly remembered the identity of his other palace guard, so he pretended to be relaxed and prevaricated, "It's okay, there is no one on Lone Star Terrace now, they are all sleeping." Even if there are people, I'm the captain, and they can't stop them. ”

Jing Tian looked at Liu Ying suspiciously, feeling that he always couldn't understand him, he simply came and went without a trace, his whereabouts were unstable, and he didn't know where to find him, although he was sometimes full of doubts about what Liu Ying said, but somehow he didn't hesitate to believe him in the end. The sky is gradually bright, the snow is still falling, Jing Tian has already blown out the palace lamp and candle in his hand, and Liu Ying took his hand to the Lone Star Platform, and there was really no one on the Lone Star Platform. Jing Tian had never been on the Lone Star Terrace, such a high platform, from the top of the sky, it was as dizzy as looking down from the top of the clouds. Standing on the platform, the two quietly watched the snowflakes fall side by side, looking at the stage is already a silver earth, everything seems to be silent and sleeping, there is no hustle and bustle, there is no superfluous colorful scene, only plain snow, Qingren and inch cold. Looking north from the other corner of Lone Star Terrace, the white mist is filled, everything is white, there are no footprints on the ground, and even the pearl of Guanzhong, the Wei River, seems to be gone, the Wei River water and the snow are completely integrated into one color, such cleanliness always gives people a feeling of inner purity and peace. Neither of the two spoke, looking at the snow quietly, Jing Tian stretched out his hand to accept the touch of the snow, and Liu Ying looked at Jing Tian with a smile in his eyes.

"When I was back home, I liked the snow in winter the most, and although she came late, it was very pure. fell down without any joy or sorrow, just completed his task of landing in the world. Jing said.

Liu Ying pursed the corners of her mouth, raised her eyebrows, turned around and leaned her back against the railing and said, "Come quietly, go quietly, don't fight or make trouble, it's really good." Jing Tian and Liu Ying smiled heartily.

The two stayed on the lone star platform for a while, accompanied by snowflakes, the two talked about life together, laughed together, watched the beautiful scenery together, and talked and laughed so lively. Seeing that the snow has no intention of stopping, the sky is already bright, and the winter morning is quiet and simple. Seeing that the smoke in the palace had risen, Liu Ying sighed in his heart, pondering that the time was not early, thinking that he would go to Liyang Palace to visit the Emperor Taishang, even if he liked this scene the most, even if the person in front of him loved him the most, but he had to leave. Then he said to Jing Tian, "Yesterday, one of my brothers was sick, and I am not on duty today, just to take care of him, and now I think he should wake up." ”

Jing Tian also said, "It just so happens that Mrs. Qi should also wake up at this moment, let's go." Jing Tilt and Liu Ying returned the same way, Liu Ying sent Jing Tilt to the outside of the wall of Yuzao Palace, but he didn't dare to go half a step inside, laughing at Jing Tilt back, Liu Ying hurriedly went to Changxin Palace to worship Empress Lu, and followed Hou Lu to Liyang Palace to visit Emperor Taishang.
