"You..." Ye Yunzi was stunned and couldn't speak for a moment. She just stared at his heartbreaking eyes, and her heart also ached.

She raised her hand and gently stroked his cheek, "What happened?"

Shen Siyan rarely showed such emotions, which made him look not as calm and composed as usual.

Whether it was disputes in the court or conflicts within the royal family, he could always remain calm, but his silence at this moment made people feel unusual.

"Shen Siyan, what happened? Is it about the Seventh Prince? Or the Fourth Prince?" She looked concerned.

"Yun Zi..." After a long time, his voice sounded a little hoarse.

He loosened his arms, lowered his eyes, then gently held her hands with both of his own, put his face close to hers, and whispered, "I want to take you to see the snow."

Ye Yunzi realized that the matter must be very serious, but since he was unwilling to say more, she did not ask any more questions.

"See the snow?" She didn't react for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "Okay, let's go see the snow."

"But it's just the beginning of winter, so we'll have to wait a while before we see snow," she reminded.

"Qingcheng Mountain is at a high altitude, and the top of the mountain is covered with several layers of snow. I heard that it is as beautiful as a fairyland." Shen Siyan's eyes were deep, "Let's go there and take a look."

Their eyes met, and they both understood each other's feelings. Ye Yunzi smiled slightly: "Okay."

……

Upon learning that Ye Yunzi would be away from home for three days, the elders in the family became very worried and kept giving her instructions.

Only the personal maid Yu Shu knew that they were going to Qingcheng Mountain, thirty miles outside the capital.

"Miss, I have prepared a down cape, a hand warmer, and a cotton coat for you." Yu Shu said worriedly as she packed her luggage, "You must be careful and don't catch a cold."

"I know, I know." Ye Yunzi smiled and shook her head to comfort him, "Leng Xue is with me, nothing will happen."

Hearing the name being mentioned, Leng Xue glanced at him indifferently, exuding an aura that made people dare not approach easily.

Yu Shu felt relieved. Although other people didn't know, she had seen Leng Xue's skills with her own eyes and believed that she could definitely protect the young lady.

In the Shen Mansion, Mrs. Shen frowned and was full of worry.

"Once Si Yan makes up his mind, he won't change it." She whispered to herself, "He is asked to marry the daughter of the Wang family, and he is so in love with Ye Yunzi that he will never let her become a concubine. What should I do if I don't take her in?"

Mrs. Shen racked her brains to try to have the best of both worlds, but she was always at a loss.

At this time, Nanny Qin came up with an idea.

Nanny Qin has followed Madam Shen for many years and has gone through countless ups and downs before she was able to consolidate her position. Her suggestions are often quite effective.

"Madam, I have an idea that may work." A hint of cunning flashed in Nanny Qin's eyes, and she whispered a suggestion to Madam Shen.

Mrs. Shen's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she nodded repeatedly: "Well, let's do it."

"I heard that the second young master plans to take Miss Ye to Qingcheng Mountain to enjoy the snow. There is an ancient temple on the mountain...why don't we take this opportunity to go to the temple to pray for peace in our family?"

"Go and prepare, we will go to Qingcheng Temple to pray."

As night fell, a carriage stopped in front of the Su Mansion, driven by Ye Feng.

Seeing Ye Yunzi and Leng Xue at the door, he nodded slightly in greeting.

"Miss, please let me help you get into the car." Leng Xue had just put the luggage away and was about to help Ye Yunzi when suddenly, a strong hand reached out from the car and lifted a corner of the curtain.

Leng Xue and Ye Yunzi were both stunned. It turned out that Shen Siyan had been waiting in the car for a long time.

Ye Yunzi smiled, took the hand without hesitation, and stepped into the car.

The car curtain then fell, and she found herself in a warm embrace.

The familiar breath made her cheeks flush, and she subconsciously refused, "Wait a minute, what if someone sees us..." Thinking that Leng Xue might be nearby, Ye Yunzi's face seemed to be on fire.

"Don't worry, no one will see it." A low voice came to her ears, and Shen Siyan pulled her to sit down and let her snuggle up to him.

He hugged her tightly and whispered, "Let's take a break. There is still a long way to go."

"Okay." Ye Yunzi responded softly in his arms.

Time passed quietly until the carriage slowly stopped.

Ye Feng's voice came from outside, "Sir, Miss, we have arrived at Qingcheng Temple."

Shen Siyan opened the car curtain, and a gust of cold wind rushed in. Ye Yunzi subconsciously shrank her neck, and at this time a few snowflakes floated into the car with the wind.

"It's snow!" Her eyes suddenly lit up and she leaned over to look outside.

What comes into view is a world wrapped in silver. The ancient temples are covered in white snow, like a fairyland.

"It's so beautiful." She couldn't help but exclaim.

Everything around was covered in white, and the world seemed to become pure, flawless and extremely peaceful.

Shen Siyan got off the carriage first, then stretched out his hand and gently led Ye Yunzi out of the carriage.

She stretched out her hands excitedly to catch the falling snowflakes like a child, with an innocent smile on her face.

Every snowflake that fell on the palm of my hand quickly turned into water droplets.

Outside the carriage, Leng Xue stood in the snow and hesitated for a long time. According to the rules, she should accompany the young lady into the carriage, but going in at this moment might ruin the atmosphere.

After thinking about it, she got on the carriage and sat next to Ye Feng.

Ye Feng's body stiffened, and he turned to look at her with a strange look in his eyes.

Leng Xue glanced at him and said, "Why are you looking at me? Drive."

"Oh."

With a shout from the night wind, the horses began to gallop.

The carriage swayed forward and the cold wind came in through the gaps in the curtains, but Ye Yunzi snuggled in Shen Siyan's arms and didn't feel the slightest bit of cold.

At this moment, it seemed as if they were the only two people left in the world.

There was silence all around, with only the sound of horse hooves echoing.

The two of them leaned against each other tightly, and even though they were just sitting there quietly, Ye Yunzi's heart was filled with sweetness.

"How long will it take to get there?"

"About four hours." Shen Siyan replied calmly.

Ye Yunzi looked up at him, this action made her heart beat faster. Shen Siyan's face was almost touching hers, and his warm breath brushed across her cheek.

She subconsciously clutched the corner of her clothes, her heart beating like a drum.

Shen Siyan looked intently at her eyes and skin, until finally his gaze stopped at her soft lips.

He smiled and slowly approached.

The distance is getting closer...

Ye Yunzi's whole body was stiff, her breathing was rapid, and she closed her eyes waiting for that moment to come.

No, I shouldn't purse my lips at this time, right?

Her fingers squeezed tighter and tighter, almost tearing the corner of her clothes.

At this tense moment, the carriage suddenly jolted violently and Ye Yunzi was thrown to the side.

"Be careful." Shen Siyan quickly grabbed her and pulled her back into his arms.

Ye Yunzi opened her eyes, and the warm feeling just now disappeared in an instant.

Her face turned red and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Looking back, she should have pushed him away, but she actually closed her eyes.
