On Chinese New Year's Eve, when the city was full of fireworks, a carriage left the Duke's Palace under the protection of the guards.

As they walked through the streets, snowflakes fell from the sky, and the earth was covered in white clothing.

Ruts and footprints trampled the snow-white to pieces.

The captain of the Duke's Palace's guards, Huo Shi, drove the car himself, and in the carriage were Chu Xiyan and Qianxue, who were seated, and the father and daughter were silent, and no one spoke.

Soon, the convoy left the north gate of Zhongdu.

"Speaking of rules, in fact, you are not qualified to know the wrong palace... This time, even if it's a father's attempt to save his daughter." Chu Xiyan sighed and said.

Qianxue ignored Chu Xiyan's words, she just lowered her head and looked at her toes.

Soon, the carriage stopped, and the voice of the fire lion came: "Sir, young princess, the palace has arrived."

Chu Xiyan got out of the car with Qianxue, Qianxue was here for the first time, her eyes looked at the vermilion gate with red lanterns, and for some reason, a feeling of fear rose in her heart.

"Is that door a beast with a bloody mouth, I felt this way when I was your age when I first came here, and even more so, because I entered there as a prisoner." Chu Xiyan said lightly.

Qianxue turned her head to look at her father in shock, could it be that her father also made some big mistake when he was a child and was sent to the Zhicuo Palace?

"I know you want to ask, but don't ask, I won't tell." Chu Xiyan said with a smile.

"Let's go, let's go in, otherwise this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner should be cold." Chu Xiyan patted Qianxue's back and said.

Father and daughter walked towards the vermilion gate, where they were twice the guards of the Duke's Palace, and behind them were servants with thermoses.

"Coming on Chinese New Year's Eve, I don't know what Lord Duke is doing?" At the gate of the Zhicao Palace, the leader of the Golden Spear Guards greeted him, and he still said the same thing last time.

"Chinese New Year's Eve, come and deliver a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to Chu Wan'er." Chu Xiyan was extremely neat this time, and directly took out the white jade token.

The guards of the golden spear first knelt down and saluted, and then got up and opened the vermilion gate.

"Lord Duke, we need to check these foods, as a matter of routine, and I hope Lord Duke will not be surprised." The leader of the Golden Lance Guards said respectfully.

Chu Xiyan nodded, beckoned behind him, and the servants stepped forward in turn to hand over the plate in their hands to the Golden Gun Guards, and after the Golden Gun Guards finished inspecting, they walked directly to the Zhicuo Palace with the plates.

"Please come in." The leader of the Golden Spear Guards stretched out his hand towards Chu Xiyan and Chu Qianxue and motioned for the two to enter.

Arriving at the courtyard in the depths again, the leader of the Golden Lance Guards unlocked the door.

Chu Xiyan nodded at him and said, "Let's talk for a while, you guys leave after the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner."

The leader of the Golden Spear Guards nodded, today is indeed a special day, and it is nothing to let them stay a little longer.

Chu Xiyan nodded gratefully, and then walked into the courtyard with Qianxue.

Coming to the front of the house, Qianxue knocked on the door first.

Soon there were footsteps in the house, the footsteps were getting closer and closer, the door was opened, and Chu Wan'er appeared in front of them.

….

The Golden Gun Guards walked in directly, they put the plate in their hands on the table, and then took away the Chinese New Year's Eve meal they had sent earlier.

After all this, all the Golden Lance Guards withdrew.

"Come in." Chu Wan'er said with a smile.

Chu Xiyan and Qianxue followed.

"I didn't expect you to come tonight, so I didn't pack up, so you can find a place to sit." Chu Wan'er said apologetically.

In fact, the room was very clean, cleaner than the average person.

"Aunt Wan'er, do you still recognize me?" Qianxue shouted softly.

Hearing this call, Chu Wan'er was stunned, and then a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"You're Xue'er, it's all because my aunt hasn't seen you for too many years, and she didn't recognize you for a while

。」 Chu Wan'er said as she stepped forward and hugged Qianxue.

"It's the New Year, I'm afraid my aunt will be too lonely, so I called my father to come over to accompany my aunt for the New Year." Qianxue gently patted Chu Wan'er's back and said.

"Good boy, sit down." Chu Wan'er was very happy in her heart.

The three of them sat down, and the dishes and chopsticks had been replaced with new ones.

"Auntie, I haven't eaten yet, you can accompany me to eat a little more." Qianxue said sweetly.

"Good, good!" Chu Wan'er readily agreed.

Chu Xiyan saw the two aunts and nephews who were inexplicably acquainted, and she couldn't understand for a while, haven't they not seen each other for more than ten years? How can you be so familiar?

"Daddy, would you like to take a bowl and eat some food in another room?" Qianxue suddenly turned her head and said to Chu Xiyan.

"What? What do you say?" Chu Xiyan had just picked up a chopstick and stir-fried vegetables, and was instantly shocked.

"I said you can go to another room to eat, I have something I want to talk to my aunt about." Qianxue said it again.

Chu Xiyan looked at her daughter suspiciously, and then at Chu Wan'er, this matter didn't seem to be so simple.

"Daddy, I'm all here, don't you give me this little space?" Qianxue said unhappily.

Chu Xiyan had no choice but to put some dishes in his bowl and left with the bowl.

When he walked to the door, he suddenly heard Qianxue say behind him, "I hope Daddy doesn't eavesdrop, otherwise I will still starve myself to death."

Chu Xiyan paused, sighed before leaving, and he also released his true qi to close the door to their aunt and nephew.

"Auntie..." After Chu Xiyan left, Qianxue threw herself into Chu Wan'er's arms again.

"Good boy..."Chu Wan'er said as she touched Qianxue's head.

"Auntie, grandpa asked me to marry, let me marry someone I've never met, I don't want to." Qianxue cried to Chu Wan'er.

"Didn't that kid from Dowling react?" Chu Wan'er asked with a pause.

This time it was Qianxue's turn to be surprised, in her opinion, it should be that she knows the relationship between Chu Wan'er and Daolin, and Chu Wan'er shouldn't know her relationship with Daolin, how can it seem that Chu Wan'er actually knows her relationship with Daolin.

"The last time your father came to me and mentioned it to me, saying that you were in a relationship with Dowling, he didn't know who Dowling was, how could I not know who Dowling was, his name was still given by me." Chu Wan'er touched Qianxue's head and said.

"My father said that I had a marriage contract with the young prince of the Red Moon Empire in the early years, and the Red Moon Empire suddenly came to Lieyang a month ago to propose marriage, and my grandfather actually agreed, and an engagement ceremony was scheduled to be held on the tenth day of the second month." Qianxue said sadly.

"Does Dowling know?" Chu Wan'er asked after comforting Qianxue for a few words.

"I've sent someone to deliver the news, but it doesn't seem like he's there, so I don't know if he'll know." Qianxue said aggrievedly.

"Don't worry, we have to believe him, he will definitely come, it seems that you are on a hunger strike, you can't do this, if Daolin comes then, he will be distressed when he sees you like this, so you have to eat well, rest well, and have faith in him."
