The sun had fallen to the horizon, and the white clouds were dyed black. Stars appeared in the sky, and the moon was hanging high in the sky.
Silver Frost had finished his dinner early. He was leaning on the chaise lounge by the window, holding a book in an unknown language. The stove was burning sandalwood, and white smoke rose up and mixed with the air in the room.
The breeze blew in through the open window and playfully flipped the pages in her hand, but she was still looking into the distance, motionless.
Suddenly, she stood up, placed the book on the table not far away, and walked towards the door.
She pulled open the carved wooden red door, and the cool spring breeze welcomed her, making her shiver.
"Is there something the Empress wants?" The maidservant guarding outside the door walked forward and asked her.
"Why are you standing outside the door?" She frowned and said unhappily.
"We have to wait for the Empress 'orders at any time.”One of the maidservants lowered her head and replied respectfully.
"No need. You guys can go back." She was not the kind of person who relied on others for everything, nor was she used to ordering others to do things for her, so she waved her hand to signal them to leave.
"Did these servants do something wrong?”With a thud, the two of them knelt in front of her.
"What are you doing?" She looked at them in confusion and anger.
"Please forgive me, Empress!" The two of them slammed their foreheads against the ground.
"Since you're innocent, how can you forgive me? Get up, bring bengong to a place, alright?”She glanced at them coldly and did not want to say anything more, because if she said too much in the palace, those people with ulterior motives would catch hold of her.
"Where does the Empress want to go?" The slightly older maid lying on the ground asked in a low voice.
"The library." she said, beaming.
--- If life is just like the first time we met, then, under the Rubus amurensis tree, are we still happy? (Lijiang Yan sparse)---
She tightened her hands around the long robe draped over her shoulders and continued to walk along the corridor that the cold wind passed through. The maidservant followed closely behind her.
There was a thin layer of snowflakes all around. When the wind blew, they hovered in the air like a shower of petals. It was extremely beautiful.
The winter in the Snow Wing Nation was about to end, and the snow was getting lesser by the day. The earth was gradually waking up.
Not far away, the 'library' was standing in front of him. It was a three-story building with hooked eaves. The doors and windows were carved very carefully, and all kinds of lifelike animals were carved on the pillars.
Silver Frost walked forward expectantly, but the moment he touched the door, he was stopped by two crossed swords.
"Without the emperor's decree, no one is allowed to enter.”The two guards shouted in unison.
"How dare you! Didn't you see that it was the Empress 'phoenix cross?”The servant girl beside her shouted.
"Please don't make things difficult for this one, this one is only following the imperial edict.”The guard knelt on one knee and cupped his fists.
"Bengong only went in to take a few books and came out. Can the two big brothers make an exception?”She said to them with a faint smile.
" This…" The two of them hesitated.
"Bengong promises to take responsibility for anything.”Her attitude was very firm.
"Yes, sir!" The guards did not dare to say anything else. They stood up and opened the door for her before returning to their original positions.
"You don't have to follow me." She tilted her head and said to the servant girl behind her before entering the library.
All he saw were bookshelves and a dazzling array of books. She walked up to the second floor where the travel notes were stored. She pulled out a book from the bookshelf beside her and stood up to read it.
However, a moment later, a summons came from downstairs, followed by the sound of the door being pushed open. She knew that someone was coming, so she hid behind the bookcase on the other side of the wall and slowed down her breathing. She planned to wait for the person who came in to leave before she went out.
However, that person went up to the second floor and slowly approached her. He stopped at a bookcase away from her and glanced at the rows of books as if he was looking for something.
"Who is it? Come out!" The man shouted in the direction she was hiding.
Silver Frost knew that she could no longer hide. She clenched her fists tightly and walked out of the bookcase. She looked up at the person who had come.
"It's you?" Their cries of surprise echoed in the building.
