Seeing her like this, Xiji felt even more cheerful. In order to prevent her from being suffocated by herself, she continued, "Go outside and watch those little maids, and play for fun, don't let them frostbite yourself."

Lu Yin struggled, hesitated, and finally compromised. She looked at Xiji and said, "My lord, I'll go out and watch them. If you have anything to do, call me, and I'll be right back."

"it is good."

After Xiji responded, Luyin ran out joyfully, seeing Luyin's cheerful footsteps, Xiji shook her head with a smile, and said softly: "This girl."

Seeing that Lu Yin first took a few steps calmly, and then reached the door, as if she couldn't wait to run out.Xiji couldn't help laughing, "This girl."

After Lu Yin had gone out to finish with the little maids, Xiji sat alone in front of the window, watching the heavy snow falling outside, silent and not knowing what he was thinking.

A moment later, a soft female voice came from beside him, and then something warm was handed into his hand.

Xiji raised his head and looked over, but saw Bi Jiang looking at him with a gentle face, seeing his gaze meeting Xi Ji, the corners of Bi Jiang's lips slightly raised, and said softly: "Young Master, it's cold today, Young Master Still hold the stove and be careful of your bones."

Hearing this, Xiji looked down at the small heater in her arms, and then raised her head and showed a gentle smile to Bijiang, "Thank you, you are the one who is more careful."

Hearing Xiji's compliment, the corners of Bi Jiang's mouth widened a bit, but from a distance, he still looked calm.

After saying this, Xiji shifted his gaze to the scenery outside the window.The heavy snow at this time has covered the eaves with a layer of white, and even a little snow has accumulated on the ground.

For some reason, Xiji suddenly remembered the last time he was on the mountain, and that time the Night King saved him, and the two of them walked in the snow without any cover.

Until now, Xiji can still remember what kind of mood he was in at that time, and said those words to the Night King.Even thinking about it now, there is still a trace of agitation in my heart.

He seems to have been saved by the Night King many times.Apart from the dissatisfaction when the two met at the beginning, the way the two get along now seems extraordinarily natural and warm.

As Xiji thought about it, the expression on his face became a little more inexplicable.Bijiang was accompanying her at the side, seeing that Xiji was silent and didn't speak, she didn't like to be noisy like Lu Yin, this kind of atmosphere was just right for her.

A master and a servant are quietly enjoying the snow in the house, and the outside is full of noise from the maids, forming two pictures that are suitable for movement and stillness.

Although Xiji felt it in his heart, it was just that the feeling came and went quickly.Soon, he returned to normal, and when he looked at Bijiang again, there was a bit of a smile on his face,

"Would you like to accompany me to make a new meal?"

Bijiang looked at the smiling Xiji and nodded immediately.

Xiji looked at her, and the smile on his face got bigger and bigger.

When the King of the Night came back at night, he saw that there were not many dishes for today's dinner. The most striking thing was a bowl of clear soup among the dishes, with many small white things floating in the middle.

Because he often eats with Xiji and can eat new tricks every time, the Night King has become accustomed to such strange arrangements.So I didn't ask too much, but I was going to sit down and listen to Xiji's statement.

Sure enough, after he sat down under the service of his servants, Xiji looked at him and couldn't wait to say: "My lord, I made a new meal today."

Ye Wang looked at the bowl of soup that had obviously never appeared in front of him, and nodded reservedly, as a memory of his words.

Seeing Ye Wang nodding, Xiji immediately served Ye Wang a bowl of soup, put it in front of Ye Wang, and said happily: "This is wonton, which is thinner than dumpling skin and has more holes. I Looking at the heavy snowfall today, I thought this thing was just right for the occasion. So when I made it, I used mutton."

After Xiji finished speaking, he pushed the bowl of wonton towards the Night King, then looked at him expectantly and said, "My lord, please try it quickly and see if it suits your taste."

The Night King met Sigi's eyes that were almost distorted, nodded slowly, then lowered his head, and took a bite of the wonton with plenty of fillings.Just the first bite, I was overwhelmed by the almost delicious taste of meat stuffing. When I raised my head again to meet Xiji's expectant eyes, I said slowly: "The things you make are always delicious. of."

Xiji was amused by the Night King's compliment, which is not a rainbow fart. After all, the biggest wish of every cook is to expect that the things he makes will be loved by those who eat them.

So, throughout the meal time, he stared at the Night King's bowl, and if it was empty, he went to ask him if he needed more.

Originally in the middle, the Night King didn't plan to eat it.As a result, he couldn't say no to Xiji's little eyes full of expectation and excitement.

So much so that in the end, the Night King ate a bit more than his usual appetite.When he realized this, his entire face was black.

Xiji looked at the Night King with a bad complexion, wondering why the Night King, who had been eating well just now, changed his expression in an instant,

"My lord, what's the matter with you?"

The Night King looked at Siji, who was staring at him with his head tilted. His eyes were full of doubts. He endured it, and finally swallowed back the words he wanted to say, and finally spit out two words, "It's nothing."

Looking at the back of the Night King who had some business to deal with and left in a hurry, Xiji frowned, and said with some confusion: "Why do I think, my lord, he looks a little sullen?"

Lu Yin next to him tilted her head, looked at the back of the Night King who was as imposing as ever, and said that she didn't see it.

……

After the heavy snowfall, it is time to count the granaries and prepare for the winter. Because of the farmyard manure from Xiji this year, the harvest has increased by [-]%.This is great news for various places that have continuously reduced production in recent years.

Moreover, this is because Xiji's farmyard manure appeared late, and many crops planted before were not used. Otherwise, it is unknown how much harvest this year will be.

But even so, those below who have been favored by Xiji remembered that there was such a young master in Yewang's mansion, who was not only good-looking, but also knowledgeable.

Therefore, when Xiji himself did not know it, he had a certain reputation among the countryside.

It's just that none of them have anything to do with Xiji who lives in the palace. Since it snowed that day, the weather has become colder day by day.Even Xiji, who is grilled by charcoal fire, will feel a little unbearable after leaving the room for a long time.Gradually, Xiji also became immobile, and just stayed in the house every day to enjoy the fire.

It's not that he likes extravagance and waste, it's just that the body in front of him is really delicate, it can't be cold, hot, hungry, or thirsty, if one is not handled properly, he will get sick.

In this era of underdeveloped medical care, once you get sick, it is a very serious matter.Xiji really didn't dare to gamble with his little life, so he could only be more coquettish.Fortunately, Ye Wang's Mansion is not short of his money, and the charcoal fire is enough, so Xiji is relieved a lot.

It's just that when I was free, Xiji began to feel bored.Here is no more modern, there is no advanced electronic equipment, and there is no rich and colorful online world, and even the scripts have not appeared due to restrictions.

Therefore, Xiji could only stay in her room, eating cakes in boredom, watching those little maids doing needlework, and chatting lively.

"Hey~" This era without the Internet is really terrible.

"Young master, are you bored?" After Xiji sighed countless times, Lu Yin beside him asked.

Xiji didn't even have the slightest intention to move now, put his hand on his chin, moved slowly towards the direction of the greenery, and nodded slowly.

Seeing her young master's sullen appearance, Lu Yin didn't know what to get him for a while.Young master doesn't like the needlework they do, and young master Xinjing doesn't want to go out.Looking at it this way, the young master actually has nothing to play with.

Thinking of this, Lu Yin looked at her young master with a bit of sympathy, after all, this is really boring.It's just that after the sympathy, Lu Yin felt that as the big maid beside the young master, she still had to share the worries for the young master.

So, she carefully thought about the things that the young master can have fun, and finally tried to suggest: "Young master, why don't we go ice skating?"

Hearing Lu Yin's words, Xiji, who was a bit lazy before, turned her head back from her crooked position, and then looked at Lu Yin's bright eyes with a very interested look.

Seeing this, Lu Yin knew that Xiji was interested in this, so she said happily,

"Didn't it just snowed heavily in the past few days, and it's getting colder today, and some flat ground with water will be covered with a layer of ice. The ice is not too thick, but it can still be used for people to play. This servant knows At this time, the ice that is forming at this time, whether it is an adult or a child, will not be trampled on it."

When Xiji heard it, his eyes lit up immediately. Isn't this a ready-made skating rink?Compared with the modern venues that are all artificially created, this is obviously more interesting, and I became interested immediately.

But soon he glanced outside again, listening to the whistling wind, finally gritted his teeth.Since he began to recuperate from his injuries, he has been depressed in this mansion for so long, and now his foot has finally healed. If he doesn't move anymore, maybe he will get sick from holding back.Isn't it just to go out and play?It's a big deal for him to wear thicker clothes, and it won't be a big deal.

After Xiji figured it out, he turned his eyes to Lu Yin again, and asked enthusiastically, "Where is the place you know?"

Hearing this, Lu Yin, who was originally in high spirits, was taken aback for a moment, and then said with some confusion: "It's not far away, it's just in the suburbs outside the city."

Not long after, a carriage with ordinary decoration but extraordinarily dignified came out of the Yewang Mansion slowly, and then drove towards the gate of the city.

……

"So, he's gone out to play now?" Night King casually asked the servant who was kneeling on the ground while dealing with the sudden increase in business affairs recently.

The servant raised his head when he heard the words, but the moment he met Ye Wang's eyes, he was startled and lowered again, and said respectfully: "Sister Luyin told the little one like that, saying that the young master is staying in the mansion because of his innocence. I was a little bored, so I went out with them to relax. Because the distance is not far, just outside the city, so I will come back before the evening."

After hearing the words, the Night King nodded as if satisfied, and whispered to the servant below who was about to die of fright: "Go down."

"Yes." Hearing the words of the Night King, the man seemed to be pardoned, even with a little joy in his voice, he quickly retreated.

After the man left, the Night King turned his head to look at the gloomy sky that was no longer snowing, sneered softly, and sighed softly: "After staying in one place for a long time, it really will still happen." Want to go out and play."

After such a sigh, he withdrew his gaze again, looked at the official affairs in front of him, and considered whether it was time to find a colleague for Mr. Guo.Otherwise, it is not a way for him to deal with these things all day long.

Just when he was thinking about who could take on this important task, the voice of a messenger came from outside the door.

The Night King's face under the mask frowned, and he responded impatiently, "Come in!"

Hearing the voice of the Night King, the man knew that he had come at an inappropriate time, but right now he was holding an important official letter, and he didn't dare to delay it at will.So, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and said to the Ye Wang who was exuding displeasure: "My lord!"

"What's the matter?"

The man obviously came in a hurry and couldn't breathe evenly, but now facing the Night King, he didn't dare to pant loudly.I tried my best to calm down my breathing twice, to make myself look more stable, and then said:

"My lord, it has been snowing heavily for a few days right now, and it has crushed many houses in Fangcheng County, Chishui County, and Pingyang County. The county magistrates there are doing their best to rescue the victims, but there is not much food in the county, and it may not be able to last for a long time. Day. Therefore, I sent the little one to ask the adults what to do next?"

Hearing his words, the Night King raised his eyelids.Knowing that this person's request for instructions is just an excuse to ask for money and food from himself.It's just that although he doesn't care about the life and death of those people, he is not that stingy.

So, looking at the anxious man who was waiting for his reply, he said lightly, "I will send Mr. Guo to deal with these matters later, you can go back."

"Retire, little one." As a messenger to and fro, he naturally knew who Mr. Guo was, and he also knew a thing or two about him.Therefore, after learning that the Night King wanted Mr. Guo to deal with this matter, he knew that the people below them were saved.There was no delay at the moment, and after resigning, he went back and informed the county magistrate below.

After the man left, the Night King indifferently ordered to the attendant next to him: "Go and invite Mr. Guo."

Mr. Guo's office is only a few tens of meters away from the Night King. The attendant obeyed the order to invite him, and within a short while, Mr. Guo followed.

Mr. Guo first bowed to the Night King, and then said slowly, "I don't know what your lord is looking for me for?"

Night King looked at Mr. Guo who was wearing more and more clothes because of the winter, and thought of Xiji who was also afraid of the cold for a moment, but he quickly put this thought behind him.Looking at Mr. Guo's old face, he repeated what the attendant said to Mr. Guo.

After finishing speaking, he ordered in a very natural way: "Leave this matter to the master, and the subsequent personnel scheduling, food and grass supply, all follow the master's orders."

I saw that Mr. Guo's expression changed from being entangled at the beginning to helpless now, and finally turned into a sigh. He watched the Night King salute, and said somewhat resignedly: "This subordinate will definitely settle this matter."

King Ye was satisfied with what he said. Sure enough, with such subordinates, he would have much less to worry about. Just as he was about to wave his hand to let Mr. Guo go to work, another man who looked like a guard rushed over and rushed towards King Ye. He said: "My lord, I have something important to report!"

The Night King glanced at the man lightly, seeing that he was a member of the guards, and knew that if there was no important matter, he would not be so reckless.So, he slightly raised his eyelids, put his gaze on his face, and asked lightly, "What's the matter?"

The guard heard the question from the Night King, and quickly said: "I don't know where a group of daring and surreptitious gangsters came from, looting all the way from the border. The latest information I got, the gangsters don't know anything It was time to sneak into the vicinity of Night City, and I have been looking for opportunities to enter the city outside the city recently."

After the subordinate finished speaking, he knelt on one knee and waited for the Night King to speak, thinking that this time the captain would lead the team.What he didn't expect was that after hearing these words, the Night King stood up immediately, and the chair made a harsh friction sound, followed by the Night King's icy and bone-chilling voice, "Trash!"

When he came back to his senses, he saw the Night King striding past, and then ordered the guards to prepare to set off on horseback.

The guard who came to report and Mr. Guo were still there, and they looked at each other not knowing what happened.Until the servant who stood waiting in the study trembled and said: "Just now someone reported that Mr. Xi took the maids to play outside the city because he was bored staying in the mansion."

Hearing this, Mr. Guo's complexion changed, and he looked outside very worriedly.

……

At this time, Xiji, who had no idea that her safety was being worried about by many people, found the place she called 'ice surface' under the guidance of Lu Yin.

Looking at the ground that does not look like a lake, but has a layer of ice, Xiji had to sigh, the magic of the Creator.Who would have thought that there would be a naturally formed ice skating rink in such a place where no one cares about it.

Seeing Xiji's stunned look, Lu Yin felt very unhappy, and said with her hands on her hips, "Young master, this is a good place. Apart from the locals, I'm the only one who can find it."

Xiji glanced at the shady greenery, then at the ice rink hidden in an inaccessible place, and nodded involuntarily.If it weren't for the people who have lived here for many years, how could they find it.

Just looking at the few children scattered on the ice, they stopped playing and playing after they arrived, and looked at them together, with a bit of curiosity and scrutiny in their eyes.

Seeing those children's blushing faces, Xiji knew that they must also love this place very much.Since they are outsiders, it's not easy to occupy their playing field, so they gave orders to the green grass beside them.

I saw that Lu Yin first glanced at her son, then at the children over there who seemed to be afraid of them, nodded, turned around and went back to the car.

When Lu Yin left, Xiji no longer cared about those children, but ordered the guards who followed him to get some wooden boards for himself. He wanted to make simple skates.

Those guards were usually followed by him when he went out, so he carried out without any objection to Xiji's words, and within a short while he got a few pieces of wood, which were made according to the style that Xiji ordered.

Seeing that they made the wood chips, Xiji was still very satisfied, and then took out a few iron chips and asked them to fix the iron chips under the wood chips as they said.

Those guards were strong enough and their hands were fairly dexterous, so within a while, they fixed it according to Xiji's instructions.

Xiji first thanked the guard who helped him with the things, and after he blushed, he happily took the wooden board inlaid with iron sheets.Then he took out the cloth strips that he had prepared at home, sat on the big rock near the ice rink, and fixed the wooden board to his feet.

It's just that his cooking skill is okay, but the way of tying things is not good. After he tried several times, he felt that the cloth strip was not secure, and wanted to untie it again.Bi Jiang next to him couldn't stand it any longer, knelt down, took the cloth strip from Xi Ji's hand, and asked gently, "What do you want to do, young master?"

Xiji looked at Bijiang who was helping her to tie her shoes in front of her, feeling a little embarrassed, and wanted to tell her that he could come by himself.

Unexpectedly, Bijiang saw through him at a glance, and before he could speak, he said in advance: "Young master, you don't need to be polite with your slaves. The servants are by your side, and they should take care of you. Right now, the young master is not good at this job, but the slaves are good at it." , Let the slaves come."

Hearing what she said, Xiji knew that she was actually more stubborn than Lu Yin. If she didn't agree, she might not be able to do it by herself.So, although I was embarrassed, I still whispered my request, "Just tie this piece of wood to my foot and don't let it fall off."

After hearing what Xiji meant, Bijiang immediately acted, fast and skillfully following Xiji's request, and tied the board to his shoes.

After Bijiang finished, Xiji stood up with her support, and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was indeed much better than what she had done.I tried to take two steps, and I didn't slip, so I felt relieved immediately.

So, he looked at the people guarding him and said: "Okay, I'm going to play. You have seen how I made it just now. If you want to play, you can get a pair yourself."

After all, he insisted on throwing off everyone's support, and began to adapt to the ice.In his previous life, he was also a person who had been to an artificial ice rink, so he naturally knew how to skate.Although the self-made skates are not as easy to use as the professional ones in the previous life, they can be regarded as passable.

So, he began to slide slowly, from the first step by step to the slow slide behind, vividly concealing the transformation from rookie to master.

The people watching from the side were stunned when they saw this scene.Although Xiji's speed is not too fast, this unique way of playing looks very powerful.

Originally, Lu Yin thought that she brought the young master here, but just let the young master move on the ice to feel the new outdoor things.Who knew that the young master made such a fun thing all at once, obviously he is an expert!

Lu Yin, who is inherently playful by nature, can't take care of so much now.While pulling the sleeve of the guard beside him, he pointed to the unrestrained Xiji over there, and said eagerly: "Brother guard, help me make one, I want one like the young master."

The guard had a generous face and looked very simple and honest. Knowing that Lu Yin was a capable maid beside Xiji, he immediately refused to take Joe, and made another pair for her as he did for Xiji just now.

After it was done, Lu Yin hurriedly wrapped the cloth strips, and then went directly off the ice surface.Then, under the attention of all the people, he fell a buttock.

The moment I sat on the ground, the greenery was still covered, and I didn't know how I fell.Fortunately, the weather is cold these days, and she is also wearing thick clothes, so she doesn't feel any pain.It's just that I feel a little bit ashamed when I feel the sight from all directions.

Just when she was about to get up and go back to stop playing, she had already played around, and she came to her side at some point, smiling at her, Xiji stretched out her white hands like jade , looked at her and said: "It's normal to be unfamiliar with it for the first time. I'll take you around a few times. When you get familiar with it, you will know the fun of it."

When Lu Yin saw the hand handed to her, her cheeks flushed for a moment, and then she still handed her hand to those hands, letting Xiji lead her and slide herself on the ice.

At the beginning, Lu Yin was still a little trembling for fear of falling again, but soon under the leadership of Xiji, she found that not only did she not fall, but she could go faster and faster, she immediately became excited and no longer afraid .She even asked Xiji to let go of herself, she can play by herself.

Xiji looked at this little girl who could turn her face faster than a book, and let go of her hand indulgently, letting her slide by herself.Anyway, these are not authentic skates, and the speed of sliding on the ice is not fast. In addition, they wear a lot, even if they fall to the ground, they don't hurt much.

Xiji was very relieved, watching Lu Yin who was getting faster and faster, and then screaming excitedly, shook his head dotingly, sliding leisurely on the ice.

After playing for a while, I felt a strong gaze. Following that gaze, I saw the children who were playing here before, staring at them eagerly, as if they were very envious.

Xiji looked at their longing eyes, and then looked at the green grass in the field that seemed to dominate the whole field. He knew that they were the ones who came later, but now they robbed their field, it was like bullying them.

Then he slid to the side leisurely, and told the guards standing there all the time, as well as Bi Jiang who was always calm, "Go and help those children who want to play, and get something like this."

Hearing this, Bijiang glanced at Xiji, as if she wasn't very surprised by his order, and nodded to indicate that she would do well.

After Bijiang accepted the task, Xiji nodded in satisfaction. Before he was about to return to the ice rink, he turned his head and said to Bijiang, "When you come out to play, you have to have fun! Occasionally learn from the greenery , don't be so serious."

Bijiang was taken aback when she heard the words, and when she was about to say something, she saw that Xiji had already stepped on her skates and returned to the ice rink, leaving only a handsome back view of herself.

Those children were a little afraid of Xiji and the others. Even though they were not very old, they still knew the noble status of Xiji and the others from their parents, and knew that these children should not mess with these adults. angry.

Just out of love for the ice rink and curiosity about Xiji and the others, they didn't leave.When Xiji ordered Lu Yin to deliver pastries to them, they hid and hid, and finally accepted it hesitantly.

Right now, when they heard that the imposing big sister in front of them wanted to get them a toy like that boy, they couldn't bear to refuse.

After getting the same skates, they couldn't wait to come to the ice rink.

The biggest one fell down as soon as he entered the ice rink, which made his little friends burst into laughter.

Seeing Xiji in the distance, he hesitated whether to go over and take him, but he hadn't waited for him to go there yet.I saw the child get up all by himself, and then yelled loudly at his little friend, "I can do it, don't look down on people." Then he crawled and rolled on his own, and gradually slipped That's it.

Seeing this scene from a distance, Xiji couldn't help laughing, but he forgot that the children of this era are far tougher than they were back then.Even after falling a few times, I didn't cry for my parents.

After making sure that they had a good sense of balance and that after a few tumbles they could get their skating position right, Siki stopped paying attention to them.Swimming leisurely on the ice, like an elegant fish.

He even looked at the ice rink very curiously. He didn't know what kind of magical structure formed such a large ice field.

Xiji was thinking about the philosophy of physics here. After the children over there mastered the skating skills, it was like water dripping into a frying pan, and they began to become noisy, and the whole venue became lively again.

Xi Ji listened to the hustle and bustle in his ears, and nodded in satisfaction, thinking that this is the fun of playing.

……

In the leeward forest not far away, a group of thick, shabby, and bloody men were roasting the pheasant they had snatched there. The man guarding the pheasant looked at his head and asked with some dissatisfaction: "Head, Are we going to wait in this place where the birds don't shit?"

The person known as the head glanced at him, and asked quietly: "Then what do you want, this Night City is not the small place we robbed before, it is controlled by the Night King. If a If it doesn’t work, we have to fold here.”

"Damn it." A man next to him spat on the ground rudely, then turned his head to look at the other side, and said impatiently: "Boss, how long are we going to stay here, since the city enters the city tonight? If we don’t go, we might as well find a nearby mountain to hide in, and occupy the mountain as king! It will save us from running around all day and worrying about it.”

Hearing his words, their boss gave him a squinting look, and said dissatisfiedly: "You think I don't want to, I don't want to take my brothers to make a big deal, and then take you to eat and drink spicy food, then Isn't it better than going to the mountains to feed the bugs?"

While they were arguing, an obscene-looking man ran over and said excitedly: "Boss, I saw a fat sheep nearby. He is a beautiful brother from a rich family. There are not many guards around him. Absolutely can't beat us."

Hearing his words, those who had been arguing stopped arguing and looked at the boss at the same time.The boss pondered for a moment, stroked his dirty beard, and said excitedly: "Since we've all bumped into each other, there's no reason why we shouldn't do it. Let's go, give him a vote."

This decision of his made everyone around him boil, and regardless of the thing that was roasting on the fire, he quickly picked up the thing, followed the man who came to report the letter, and touched it in the direction he said.

……

At the same time, on the road less than a few kilometers away from them, a group of people was galloping towards them, and the leader was the Night King with a livid face and a chill all over his body.

The Night King stared fixedly at the road ahead, the murderous look in his eyes seemed to have substance.
