After nightfall, the winter breeze is cooler.

Su Yunze didn't have a chance to see Qin Ziyu, but listening to Qiu Yue, Qin Ziyu coughed hoarsely, and she didn't know how to eat in the past few days, and she vomited more than she ate.

And last night, on the third watch, a bad thing happened that made Qin Ziyu's condition worse.

Qin Ziyu has never liked to be served by someone around her, so even if the situation is special now, there is no one left in front of the bed, and the night vigil palace maid is on duty at the door. But last night it was extremely cold, the palace maid slept deeper than before, Qin Ziyu was thirsty in the middle of the night, calling people to drink water, and her hoarse voice screamed for a long time and there was no movement outside the door.

Qin Ziyu, who was so thirsty that she couldn't sleep, had no choice but to support her weak body and walk to the table to drink water. Accidentally, her foot tripped over the leg of the stool, and she didn't have much strength, so she went weak and fell off the table.

The hand knocked over the porcelain cup on the table, cutting her fingers, and her face slammed to the ground.

Afterwards, because the princess was injured, the maid on duty was punished. Qiu Yue asked Qin Ziyu if she could let the palace maid come in to serve, but Qin Ziyu still refused.

Because of that incident, she never accepted that there were people around her when she was sleeping, even if the palace maid who was waiting for her movements was very light, she would be startled by the sound of breathing.

Qiu Yue didn't want to force her, so she had to repeatedly tell the other palace maids who were keeping vigil to be more vigilant during this time.

It was late at night, and a light snow was falling outside the window.

Su Yunze stood by the door for a long time and made a decision in his heart.

Mulan was drowsy with a thick quilt wrapped in a thick quilt in front of Qin Ziyu's house, her head resting on the door frame, little by little, she could see that the affairs of the day made her sleepy.

Su Yunze coughed lowly, and she woke up immediately. When he saw the corpse in front of him, Su Yunze, his face showed puzzlement.

"Pony, do you have any orders for this late hour?"

"You go and rest. ”

"Huh?" Mulan's eyes widened in disbelief for what she had heard.

Su Yunze repeated: "You go to rest, Yu'er's side, I'll guard it." ”

Mulan was completely sleepy, trembling, and stammered: "Then, how can it be done? This is what a slave and maid should do, how can it be done by a colt?"

Su Yunze raised his hand and said, "There is no substitute work, this is an order, go and rest." If anyone asks, just ask him to come to me. After a pause: "Or do you want to disobey?"

It was rare to see Su Yunze have a temper, Mulan understood that he could not be persuaded to change his mind in a few words, so she could only nod and said timidly: "Then, the slave maid is gone......"

"Hmm. ”

Mulan hugged her futon and turned back three times in one step.

Finally walked to his hut, Su Yunze had already put his futon at the door and sat against the wall.

The snow seemed to be falling more urgently, and Mulan thought about it and turned around to go to Qiuyue's room.

"Aunt Qiuyue, Aunt Qiuyue. She whispered at the door.

Qiu Yue felt sleepy, got up and asked, "Something is wrong with the princess?!"

"No, no, Aunt Qiuyue, this ...... How do you say this matter......" Mulan told her what Su Yunze said and did.

Qiu Yue listened and fell silent.

Half an hour later, she walked to the door and lifted the heavy curtains.

In the snow, Su Yunze's lips were pursed, and he could see that he was not lightly frozen without a warm pot.

Qiu Yue sighed and said, "The horse is like this, and he has made up his mind. We tried to persuade it, but I was afraid that it would not be persuaded, and it might also disturb the princess's sleep. ”

After thinking for a while, he said, "Mulan, you better go to sleep, let's see this matter for a few more days." ”

Five days later, the sky cleared.

Early in the morning, Qiu Yue brought Mulan and Red Kite to serve Qin Ziyu.

After washing, Qiu Yue found that Qin Ziyu's face was better.

"The princess looks good, maybe she is getting better!" she said with a good word.

Mulan and Red Kite also chimed in.

Qin Ziyu's fingertips swept over a strand of sideburns beside her ear, and said, "Today is indeed a little refreshed." He glanced out the window, saw the sun shining through the window, lazily scattered on the ground, and said, "It's rare that the sun is out, let's go to the yard to bask in it later." ”

The imperial doctor also said that although the princess is cold, she can't be bored all the time. ”

The red kite touched her tooth comb and said, "Since the princess wants to go out to bask in the sun, is it good for the slave to comb a plum bun for the princess?" ”

Qin Ziyu bowed her head and pursed her lips and smiled.

Mulan also said: "The red kite said that it was going to meet the occasion, so the slave went to take out the 'treading snow and looking for plums' that she didn't have time to wear last year!

"I'll go, too! I'll have to comb plum blossoms in a bun! Slaves and maids go and pick some. ”

Looking at the happy appearance of the two girls, Qin Ziyu couldn't help but feel a little more cheerful.

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Qiu Yue made a casual appearance and picked up a suitable hairpin for Qin Ziyu.

She picked up a plain green hosta and muttered: "The slave remembers that treading the snow to find plums is a set of crimson dresses, and the collar is wrapped in snow fox fur...... This oligo-green is not worthy. ”

took out a jade hairpin: "This one is too green, and it is not worthy." ”

Then change to Dongzhu to save plum blossoms and beads, and compare on Qin Ziyu's black hair: "This is a perfect match!"

"Aunt Qiuyue, whatever you want to say, just say it. Qin Ziyu saw through her trick and broke it lightly.

Qiu Yue pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "What the slave and maid have, they can't hide from the princess's eyes." As he spoke, he told Qin Ziyu about Su Yunze's vigil in the past few nights.

Qin Ziyu's face changed slightly after hearing this, but she didn't say anything, she lowered her head and combed her hair with her teeth.

Qiu Yue said tentatively: "Princess, you and the colt have been married for more than half a year, and you also know how accommodating the colt is to you during this time. Even if...... Even if you don't want to be a real husband and wife with him, you can't make him freeze, right?"

Qin Ziyu slowly exhaled.

"He doesn't necessarily listen to what I say, and what I say doesn't give him hope?"

Qiu Yue laughed and said, "Princess, don't blame the slave for talking too much, don't you give enough hope......?" This sincerity, in the eyes of the slave, is very rare. ”

Qin Ziyu saw that she had something to say, glanced at her, and asked, "Then what does Aunt Qiuyue think of me?"

Qiu Yue waved her hand again and again: "The slave and maid naturally can't decide what the princess should do, it's just that the slave and maid, as a human being, looks a little distressed." The human heart is made of flesh...... If his parents knew that such an excellent son of his own, freezing in the cold wind every night, and having to hold on to the morning court during the day, how distressing and sad it would be!"

"It's only been five days......" Qin Ziyu felt a little blocked in her heart.

"Princess, we are slaves and slaves, and we all take turns to keep vigil. The horses haven't rested well for five days, and these five days are really not just talking. ”

Qin Ziyu frowned and slapped the tooth comb on the dressing table.

She turned to look at Qiu Yue, her eyes with obvious emotion.

"Auntie, you have been saying good things for him, what do you want?"

Seeing that Qin Ziyu was indeed angry, Qiu Yue didn't dare to continue according to her own thoughts, knelt down and bowed her head and said, "The princess is angry!

Qin Ziyu opened her mouth, she wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it. Hearing the voices of Mulan and Red Kite at the door, she turned around with her eyebrows twisted and said, "You get up." ”

“...... Princess Xie. ”
