night snow full of clear branches

I chatted with Si Yong for a long time that night, until I closed my eyes, I was still talking unconsciously.

Si Yong asked me where I would go after she got married.

"I, I want to make my home in the world." What Si Yong said later, I also forgot.

A few days later, Concubine Min took Si Yong to Qingtianjian to ask for an auspicious day, and I followed.

Qingtian Jian said that the seventh day of the first month of next year is a good day, so Si Yong's marriage was set on the seventh day of the first month of next year.

"Wouldn't it be that this year is over soon, you can start preparing now." I held Si Yong's hand, happy for her.

Concubine Min suddenly glanced at me, as if remembering something, she said to Qing Tianjian: "Why don't you help me find out the marriage of this child Qing Zhi by the way."

"I'll forget it." My intuition told me that the result would be very unexpected.

Qing Tianjian looked at me, stroked his chin, and said without even asking about his birthday, "Miss Mu doesn't take the usual way, she's not like an ordinary daughter's house."

"That's weird, I will also write her birthday horoscope with you, so you can do the math." After speaking, Concubine Min picked up a pen and paper and wrote my birthday horoscope with Qingtian Jian.

Qing Tianjian wrote and drew on the paper for a while, then raised his head and looked at me with complicated eyes.

I was startled, maybe he saw something bad like I was going to die unexpectedly.

Slowly, Qing Tianjian put away the complicated look in his eyes, and said something that I will never forget all my life, he said: "Miss Mu has no marriage, and it is rare to be happy in life."

I wanted to ask again, but was blocked by the sentence "the secret of heaven must not be revealed".

Si Yong comforted me, saying that it was Qingtian Jian's nonsense, and I should not believe it all. Although I didn't feel very sad because of it, it seemed like I had a kind of fate, and I couldn't understand it for a long time.

After the date was confirmed, Xiao Luo began to help Si Yong prepare this and that, of course the main thing was to sew the wedding dress.

"Aren't there so many embroiderers in the palace, why do you have to do it yourself." Seeing that Si Yong spends so much time on drawing flowers these days, I am very puzzled.She smiled and said, "What I do will be different."

There are many princesses in the palace who don't know how to sew, but Si Yong is an exception. She sews very well, but I don't know how to do it well.

All day long, Si Yong is busy with her wedding dress when she has nothing to do. I find it very boring, so I go to various palaces to play, and occasionally take Xunjia to dance with a knife and a gun.

On this day, I wandered to look for Liu Yan, but I heard from Wei Yu that Liu Yan had been transferred to the embroidery room.

"When did you come here? No wonder I haven't seen you for a long time." When I arrived at the embroidery room, Liu Yan was sewing a gorgeous dress with several embroidery girls.

"I was assigned here the day I returned to the palace."

"why?"

"You always have so many reasons. In fact, there are so many reasons. It just depends on the mood of the master." Liu Yan continued to sew clothes with a smile.

The phoenix spread its wings in that dress, which was even more expensive than the court dress worn by the queen. The queen's court dress was mostly embroidered with blue luan, and seeing this style, surrounded by golden threads, the double phoenix was auspicious.

"Who is this dress made for? It's so dazzling."

Another embroidered girl answered me, "Who do you think will be the future prince?"

"Oh, I see." I fumbled for the patterns on the clothes, imagining what Wei Xue would look like wearing them, suddenly a little funny.

Many people in the palace know that Princess Zhaoyun will become the crown prince. Even if there are inaccuracies, when I see this dress today, I am convinced that the emperor is a dragon and the empress is a phoenix.

Liu Yan was busy making court uniforms, and I was bored so I went back to Si Yong's place. At this moment, she had put away her needlework and was busy packing her books.

"This book has to be taken away, and this book also..." She counted while Xiao Luo tidied up.

"You are going to move all the things in the palace there." I looked at the half-empty bookshelf and felt funny again.

Si Yong blinked, and said, "No, Cheng Gui and I agreed to gamble on books in the future."

Sincerely, what an intimate address, it made me feel melancholy again.I read a lot of books, anyway, I have no career and I follow Xiao Luo to help pack them up. Flipping through them, I suddenly remembered something.

"Si Yong, do you know any books that have the word 'Weixue' in them?"

"That's too much. You want to know the allusion to Wei Xue's name, right? Go and ask her yourself."

She didn't tell me what to do, "Then you can just say one."

"There is a poem written like this, shaking hands to meet the sun, cold clouds and snowy sky." Si Yong recited it again, and I also wrote it down, but I couldn't think of any connection between this poem and her name.

At the end of the year, Si Yong's wedding dress was ready. I can't remember how many times she changed it, how many times she tried it.

On the day when the wedding dress was finalized, Si Yong put on her upper body and walked around the room several times, her happiness beyond words.

Xiao Luo put away her wedding clothes and went to close the window, a gust of cold wind blew in outside. "It's snowing again."

"I'm going to make a snowman this year." Let's add Xie Cheng this time, I thought so, and walked out of the door, there was a lot of noise outside, the sky was full of snow, it's not snowing, it's not snowing...why it's not snowing.

Si Yong came out with a smile, watched the ground turn white, and said, "Let's build together later, maybe this is the last time we will build a snowman in the palace."

"Don't say it so sentimentally." I pouted, looking at Si Yong with some reluctance.

"Haha, don't be sentimental, anyway, if you feel tired of being at home in the future, remember to come to me anytime."

I thought to myself, anyway, I won't bother you for a while, it would be bad to disturb your sweet and clean life.

Xiao Luo came out of the house with a basin in hand, "Miss Qingzhi, before the snow is thickly spread, I'm going to get some snow water and make tea later, shall we come together?"

"Okay." I also took a pot, stepped on the snow, and Xiao Luo went to the garden. The grass and leaves in the garden were covered with snow. After a while, we all filled a pot.

"Go back, this should be enough until the beginning of the year." I looked at the basin full of snow in my hand and was very satisfied.

Xiao Luo suddenly said from behind: "See Princess Zhaoyun." I looked back, Wei Xue was standing not far away, she was wearing a plain white cloak, if it wasn't for the slight rain behind her fanning her, I would have ignored it There was another person standing there.

"Excuse me." Wei Xue said to Xiao Luo, but looked at me.

"I got a basin of snow, do you want it? It's delicious for making tea." I held the basin, and I didn't know how to react, so I had to say this.

"Then send it to me."

I really want it... I really just said that casually, but I had no choice but to follow Xiao Luo to send a pot of snow to Weixue Palace.

Just about to go back, Weixue stopped me and told Xiao Luo to go back first.

"Anything else?"

"Can't you stay and sit for a while if you have nothing to do?" She changed the subject and made me feel embarrassed.

I sat down as I said, and hot tea was poured by the light rain. Walking from the wind and snow outside, a sip of hot tea warmed my whole body.

"What has the princess been up to lately?" I asked knowingly, it was nothing more than some things that were approaching the end of the year, and her establishment of a reserve.

"It's been a while since I haven't seen you."

It was only then that I realized that I didn't call her by her name, because I thought that she would be the person who will become the Ninth Five-Year Lord in the future, and it would be better to change her words as soon as possible.

Let's change the subject now, "This tea is delicious, do you have any more, I'll take some away."

"What? She didn't give you good tea, Si Yong?"

"Haha..." I really didn't know what was wrong with me, I kept finding some nonsense to say, and then I was dumbfounded by the question.

"Where are you going after Si Yong gets married?" Wei Xue finally asked a question that I could answer.I said, I have either stayed in Fuyu Mountain Villa or in the palace since I was a child. I have never been to many places outside, and I want to see them.

"That's right, no matter how it is outside, it's better than inside the palace." Wei Xue applauded my idea, but said the next moment, "What if I want you to stay?"

"Give me Jinshan, and I won't keep it." The palace was really tired.

Wei Xue smiled thoughtfully after hearing this. "You have to know that the most precious thing in this world is not gold."

"I know, but the palace, I really have enough." I can't wait to see the outside world.

"Outside will get tired one day."

"But I haven't been there yet, how do I know when to get bored, and, don't you want to go out and have a look?" To see your future world, I didn't dare to say the last sentence.

"I've seen it a long time ago." There were many stories in her words, and I couldn't bear to say anything more.

Afterwards, I kept thinking about what Wei Xue said, "If I want you to stay", so to speak, she wanted me to stay, whether it was because I was more useful or something, she didn't want to part with me anyway. , It's not in vain that we got to know each other once.

Another reason why I don't want to stay is that I can't figure out Wei Xue's mind, she has her majesty and is not as friendly as Si Yong. Even hard to go back on.

Seeing that the seventh day of the first lunar month was approaching, the palace began to be busy with Princess Rongchang's wedding. I didn't take part in the tedious procedures ahead. I sat on the roof every day and watched the people below decorate with lanterns and festoons, rushing in and out, Counting the days until I leave the palace.

Probably seeing that I was too idle, Concubine Min suddenly asked Eunuch Lin to call me.

"Your Majesty has something important to say, Miss Qing Zhi, come with me."

I went down from the roof, speculating about possible things in my heart, Concubine Min didn't know what she was busy with recently, she seldom saw me, and now she suddenly asked her father-in-law to pass on a message, thinking it was a very important matter.

Concubine Min retreated to the left and right, leaving only her and me in the inner room. I saw that the atmosphere was a little serious, so I listened with all my energy.

"Qing Zhi, I watched you grow up, although you act a little absurdly, you are a good-hearted child after all, now I don't know how many days I can live, so I simply ask you something today."

Well, when Concubine Min suddenly said this, my heart trembled.
