Carnivorous Princess and Herbivore Consort

Since entering October, the weather has been getting colder and colder every day.Finally, on the eve of Xiayuan Festival, Yaojing ushered in a heavy snowfall.

"Princess, look, it's snowing!" Although Lingzhou is not farther south than Yaojing, it has always been rainy and snowy.Shen Dongxue hadn't seen such a heavy snow for a long time, she lay down by the window, stretched out her hand to catch the snowflakes blown down by the wind.

Seeing Shen Dongxue's excitement written all over his face, Wei Muqing smiled and put a cloak on her, and asked softly, "Want to play?"

Shen Dongxue turned her head to look at her, and nodded joyfully, "Thinking about it."

"Then you have to have breakfast first. It's easy to catch cold on an empty stomach. If you get sick again, it's not me who suffers."

Shen Dongxue thought of the illness he had some time ago, and the unavoidable bitter medicine that he had to eat three times a day in those days, looked at the white garden, and obediently followed Wei Muqing to eat.

As soon as she finished her breakfast, Shen Dongxue started to feel restless. Seeing this, Wei Muqing originally planned to make trouble for her, and said with a smile, "Go back to our yard."

He ordered the servants to tidy up the hot spring warm pavilion, and sent all the maids and servants away, leaving only them in the whole yard.

"Did the princess ever play in the snow when she was a child?"

Wei Muqing saw Shen Dongxue squatting there, holding the snow balls with his bare hands, and squatting over, shaking his head and saying: "If it snowed heavily when I was a child, my mother would let me stay in the house, read a book by the stove. She Said: "How can the dignified princess of the Hui Dynasty play in the snow like ordinary people?" In fact, I also secretly watched the little palace ladies hiding in the back garden and having a snowball fight, and they looked very happy."

"The princess' childhood was pitifully dull."

Wei Muqing smiled and said: "Who says it's not. What about you? It's rare to see heavy snow in Lingzhou."

"Yes, Lingzhou has a lot of rain and little snow. However, I have seen heavy snow a few times when I was a child. At that time, when it snowed, my brother took me to the yard to fight snowballs and build snowmen while my mother was not paying attention. In fact, it is normal. People, parents also don't like their daughter's family doing these seemingly 'wild' things." Shen Dongxue handed the little snow ball in his hand to Wei Muqing, "Here."

"Well, what are you doing?" Wei Muqing took it over without knowing why, "It's so cool!"

"Princess follow me," Shen Dongxue said with a coquettish smile, "it won't be so cold after holding it in your hand for a while."

Wei Muqing felt that the laughter probably played a role, the snow ball in his hand was indeed not as cold as it was at first.Seeing Shen Dongxue put the small snow ball on the ground and start rolling it, the snow ball got bigger and bigger, Wei Muqing followed suit.

"Princess, you can make it smaller." Shen Dongxue pushed the snowball from one side of the yard to the other side of the yard, and soon the snowball was as tall as a calf.

Wei Muqing nodded upon hearing the words, "Okay."

"Princess, roll your snowball over here." From a distance, Shen Dongxue waved at Wei Muqing.

After Wei Muqing rolled the snowball over, Shen Dongxue picked up the smaller one and piled it heavily on top of the bigger one.Then he ran to the tree, rummaged through the snowdrift, and found a few branches that had been broken by the heavy snow and stuck on the sides.

"Is that all right?"

"I always feel like I've missed something?" Shen Dongxue half-folded her chest, resting her chin in one hand, looking at the snowman, suddenly remembered something, and ran to the study.

After a while, Wei Muqing saw her walking over cautiously with a pen dipped in ink, and dotted two strokes on the snowman's "face" for eyes, and drew two thick eyebrows.

"It... looks like who?"

Shen Dongxue shook his head, "I don't know either."

After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing for some reason.

After laughing for a while, Shen Dongxue asked, "Does the princess want to have a snowball fight?"

Seeing her happy, Wei Muqing was very appreciative and said, "Okay."

"Snowball fights are more lively with more people, or..."

"Call Yunmeng Yunze, Dai Yan and Liufeng to come together."

Yunmeng, Yunze, Dai Yan, and Liu Feng were suddenly called over by Wei Muqing, thinking that something had happened, but it turned out that they were going to have a snowball fight with the son-in-law.The four of them were amazed that Wei Muqing, who was always upright, would put down his body and do such a thing, but they understood when they saw the snowman beside the yard.

"My son-in-law said that a snowball fight requires a lot of people to be lively, and you don't have to worry about my identity as my son-in-law, just let it go."

"Thank you, princess, son-in-law." Yunmeng had always been a child at heart, so he was delighted to hear that.

With Wei Muqing's words first, Yunmeng really let go, and threw the snow ball at Dai Yan.Out of habit, Dai Yan dodged subconsciously, Yunmeng was so angry that he jumped here and said: "There is no reason to hide in a snowball fight!"

Dai Yan quickly apologized: "I hope there are many girls in Yunmeng. She has been practicing martial arts for many years, so she hides out of habit."

As soon as the words fell, Dai Yan was hit in the back of the head by a snowball.Turning around to look, it was Wei Muqing who threw it over with a smile.

"Yunmeng, Bengong has stood up for you."

"The princess is really eccentric!" Dai Yan laughed when he heard this.

"Then one for each person." After finishing speaking, Wei Muqing took the snowball Shen Dongxue handed over, and threw it at Yunmeng, Yunze and Liufeng, and no one escaped.

"I know that the princess is not willing to beat her son-in-law!" Yunmeng pointed at Shen Dongxue who was still dry.

Shen Dongxue, who was suddenly pointed to, was stunned for a moment, and argued: "I handed the princess a snowball, how could the princess turn the other way..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wei Muqing hit him on the back with a snowball.

With Wei Muqing at the beginning, Shen Dongxue also let go, while dodging the snowballs flying all over the sky, while quickly throwing them one by one.

After going on for a long time, the sky became cloudy again, and it actually snowed heavily again.

Wei Muqing waved his hand, "Okay, stop making trouble, let's all go back and clean up, and call two buckets of hot water to go away the cold."

"Yes."

In the hot spring warm pavilion, a maid had already placed the petals, and the clothes that the two of them wanted to change were also neatly folded and put aside.

After soaking in the hot spring, a sense of warmth immediately flowed all over his body. Wei Muqing took Shen Dongxue's red hands and rubbed them, and asked, "Your name is Dongxue, but it snowed heavily when you were born?"

Hearing this, Shen Dongxue smiled embarrassingly, "Actually, my name and my brother's name were both given to me by my father. When my mother just gave birth to my brother, my father thought that a cheap name would make him a good living, so he gave my brother a baby name. □□Hua, the big name is Qiuyue—the moon of the moon. My mother felt that it was outrageous for a boy to be called this name. After a lot of hard work, my father agreed to change it to the current Yue. When I was born, my father wanted to collect the four seasons. That’s why I’m called Dongxue.”

Only then did Wei Muqing understand why Shen Dongxue, who was drunk back then, would say that she was "the Dongxue of Spring Flowers and Autumn Moon", "Then what is your baby name?"

"Xia He. It's only one letter away from the title of the princess." Shen Dongxue's face turned red again, not knowing whether it was the heat or something.

"You and I are so destined," Wei Muqing heard and stroked her cheek, "It's really a match made in heaven, a pair made by nature."

The mist with the fragrance of flowers hazy vision and blinded eyes. In this cold winter day, warmth permeates the bottom of my heart.

After lunch break, Wei Muqing changed into men's clothes and said, "Today is the Xiayuan Festival, there will be blessing activities in the Taoist temple, let's go and worship together."

When Shen Dongxue was in Lingzhou, she had also heard that there would be an altar sacrifice activity in the Xiayuan Festival, but she had never seen it before, so she was very happy to hear it.Taking Dai Yan and Liu Feng with them, the two left the mansion.

Seeing the two dressed in men's clothing of the same color and style, Dai Yan and Liu Feng looked a little subtle, but out of their duties as bodyguards, they followed behind Mu and Chen without saying a word, protecting their safety.

There is a Taoist temple in Yaojing called Lingheguan, the incense has always been strong, today is the Taoist temple that opened the altar for sacrifices.

People come and go along the way, all of them go to burn incense and pray for blessings and come back after praying for blessings.Wei Muqing bought six sticks of incense, and Shen Dongxue and Shen Dongxue each had three sticks of incense. After worshiping the statue and offering incense, they were ready to go outside the hall to watch the sacrificial ceremony.However, before he could leave the door, he was stopped by an old man with white hair.

"What advice does the Taoist priest have?" Wei Muqing has always treated Taoist priests and monks very courteously, and he would not hesitate to be stopped.

"The poor Taoist sees that this young master has an extraordinary bearing, but there is black energy around his body, I am afraid that the catastrophe is coming soon." The Taoist priest pointed at Shen Dongxue.

"Are you serious about what the Taoist priest said?" Wei Muqing frowned upon hearing the words, a little worried.

"It's true."

"Dare to ask if there is a way to resolve it?"

The Taoist leader shook his head, "Young master's aura is mixed, and the poor Taoist just sees that there is a catastrophe, but he doesn't know what catastrophe, when, and why."

"The Taoist may see more, even a little? Incense money is not a problem."

The Taoist priest looked hard for a while, then sighed and said: "The poor Taoist can only see that this catastrophe is related to water, and the poor Taoist is not good at learning."

"Thank you, Daoist." Seeing that Daoist really tried his best, Wei Muqing nodded at him and said, "This incense money..."

"Young master, you don't need to be too polite. Taoism pays attention to the law of fate. If you meet today, you are destined. If this young master survives the calamity in the future, it will not be too late to add incense."

After thanking the Taoist priest several times, Wei Muqing returned to the mansion with a heavy heart.

Seeing this, Shen Dongxue persuaded: "Didn't the Taoist priest say today that this catastrophe is related to water. But apart from a moat and a small lake in the suburbs of Beijing, where is there any water in Yaojing? As long as I don't go to the water's edge That's it, princess, don't worry."

Wei Muqing shook his head and said: "There is water everywhere in the mansion, for drinking and using, what the Taoist priest said today is really too general."

"Taking a step back, the Taoist priest's words are general, and there are so many people today, maybe the Taoist priest has misread it. Princess don't need to worry too much."

"You don't know, this Taoist temple has always been efficacious, and most of the Taoist priests in the temple are people with real talents and real learning. I'm afraid that today's words are true." Wei Muqing sighed, and his worries would not dissipate for a long time. go.

Seeing her like this, Shen Dongxue thought for a while and said, "Everyone has his own destiny. People who don't know their own destiny often live carefree. If you can bear this catastrophe, you don't need to worry; if you can't bear it..."

Wei Muqing raised his hand to stop her from speaking, "Don't say, you are from this palace, even Lord Yan doesn't want to snatch someone from this palace! How can there be any trouble?!"

Shen Dongxue smiled at her, "Since the princess has said so, why worry now? It's just as if I didn't meet the Taoist priest today, and I don't know what disaster will happen. At worst, I will go with the princess everywhere in the future, and I won't be called the princess." Worry."

Seeing that Shen Dongxue has been working hard to relieve herself, Wei Muqing finally thought about it - if there is really a calamity that cannot be overcome, then we can... that's it.
