Yue Qinghe spent a lot of effort to suppress the feeling in his heart. After a long time, he turned around and smiled, saying to the children in the room,""Are you going to build a snowman in the yard?”
"Alright, alright!"
"Alright!"
All the children cheered and hugged each other.
"Su Yan! Su Yan!" Yue Qinghe shouted again.
"What's wrong?" Su Yan hurriedly came over.”
"Go and invite the Tenth Prince over.”As soon as Yue Qinghe said this, a trace of surprise flashed across Li Pin's eyes. Su Yan also stood there in a daze and did not move. Her expression was very hesitant, as if Yue Qinghe had said something absurd.
"What's wrong?" Yue Qinghe felt something was wrong and asked.
"Crown Princess is a pure and kind person. She thought that with so many Princes and Princesses here, she could not just leave the Tenth Prince alone. However, I'm afraid that the Tenth Prince would not accept the Crown Princess 'favor.”
"Why?" asked Yue Qinghe strangely.
"Although the Crown Princess Consort has been here for half a year, not everyone knows about her. Since the Crown Princess Consort is puzzled, then I will be bold enough to say it. The Tenth Prince was an extremely reclusive person. His mother, Fang Pin, was also a person not to be trifled with. It was better for the Crown Princess Consort not to go.”Li Pin's tone became serious, and Qi Pin nodded.
Yue Qinghe smiled nonchalantly,""So what? He was only a seven or eight-year-old child. What was there to be afraid of? Moreover, since everyone was here today, they could not leave him alone. That would be even worse.”
"Imperial Sister-in-law, it's safer without him.”Ye Ye, who was the oldest among them, was listening at the side when he suddenly interjected.
Yue Qinghe didn't understand, but he thought that it must be because the Tenth Prince's personality was not good, so he didn't like others. But she wasn't someone else, so why did she treat others differently like before? Moreover, she had seen the Tenth Prince before. He was much more handsome than these princes. He was still a child now. When he grew up, he would be even more handsome. Such a good child would naturally not be a bad person. Therefore, she wanted him to join this big group while the neglect was not too serious. Yue Qinghe had made up his mind, so he said to Ye Mo,""He's your biological brother. How can you say such a thing? Su Yan, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and invite him."
Li Pin still wanted to say something, and Ye Ye also wanted to refute, but Yue Qinghe waved his hand and said,""Alright, alright, let's wait for the snow to get thicker before we build a snowman! Can everyone play games now?”
Therefore, he took the children to the house to play origami.
Su Yan hesitated for a moment, but still went out with an umbrella.
At that time, Yue Qinghe still did not understand why there would be such a big reaction to a seven-year-old child coming over to play. Yue Qinghe also did not know that her seemingly impartial idea had forged a different life.
Yue Qinghe's study was very lively. Sometimes he would go to the children's area to tell the three princes a story, fold paper airplanes and paper frogs, sometimes he would go to the desk to write a few words and ask Ye Mo and the other two about the words they didn't know in the book, sometimes he would let a large group of palace maids in Liusou Court come over to bring a lot of various pastries and snacks for the princes to eat, or he would wander outside to look at the snowflakes.
However, the Tenth Prince did not come. Yue Qinghe felt strange as he waited. Su Yan was a very capable palace maid, why was she so slow today?
On the Eastern Palace's side, when Ye Ye heard that the Crown Princess had sent someone to invite the Tenth Prince, he couldn't help but frown. Su Yan, who was standing at the side, felt a chill run down her spine.
"If she wants to treat you, won't you stop her?" Ye Ye was expressionless, but his tone was filled with dissatisfaction.
Su Yan smirked." Your Highness, I really don't dare to refute the Crown Princess Consort's words. Moreover, the Crown Princess Consort is innocent and doesn't know the Tenth Prince's character at all. It's just a moment of kindness. I'm afraid that I've gone against the Crown Princess Consort's wishes, so…" As she said this, she carefully raised her head to look at Ye Ye.
Ye Ye felt very uncomfortable. He had only returned from Prince Gong's Mansion for a few days, but Qinghe had completely recovered to his former easy-going self and had a better relationship with those princes. Although this seemed to be a good thing, he knew the truth of it the best---the actions of those concubines were just for him to see. She knew that his feelings for her had changed, so she followed him and fawned over Qinghe.
It didn't matter if Qinghe didn't understand the reason behind this. As long as she didn't shut herself in the room like before and didn't meet any guests, it would be fine. Ye Ye was relieved to hear from his mother that the imperial kitchen had returned to its usual liveliness these days. He also tacitly approved of the actions of those imperial brothers. However, just because they were allowed to go to the Liushi Court did not mean that everyone was allowed to go. That Tenth Prince was so vicious at such a young age. How could he guarantee that he would not threaten Qinghe's safety?
Just as he was about to send Su Yan back, he changed his mind and said,"Since it's what she wants, then send someone to bring the Tenth Prince over. Just remember to protect the Crown Princess.”
Su Yan looked at Ye Ye in disbelief. Since when did the Crown Prince pamper the Crown Princess so much? He could even agree to such a request? The Tenth Prince was a figure that no one in the palace dared to provoke!
Although she was puzzled, she still went down after receiving the order.
When the Tenth Prince was announced to have arrived, everyone in the room stopped and looked out of the door. Outside the door, Su Yan first lifted the thick curtain and came in. Then, she pulled the curtain open to let the person behind her in.
It was a seven-year-old child who was covered in snow. He was not wearing a cloak or a hat. He was only wearing an old scarlet coat. As soon as he entered the door, he raised his head coldly and glanced around the room. His gaze fell on Yue Qinghe who was folding the windmill. His thin lips curled into a mocking smile."You asked me to come over?"
Yue Qinghe was stunned by his imposing manner. She only knew that the Tenth Prince was born well, but she didn't know that he was such a cold child. There seemed to be ice in his eyes. Whoever he looked at would be frozen.
Yue Qinghe was frozen, but in just a second, she smiled. Holding the windmill in her hand, she slowly walked over and squatted in front of him, looking at him at eye level. She smiled and said," I asked you to play. Why didn't you bring an umbrella? Are you freezing?" As she spoke, she reached out to pat the snowflakes on his shoulder.
Unexpectedly, his hand was flung away by his master. Ye Yu, the Tenth Prince, was a small man but he had great strength. Qing He's hand turned red at once. Ye Yu's eyes were as cold as the snow outside the door, and his tone was full of mockery, which did not sound like a child's." None of your business!"”
The few people in the room couldn't hold it in any longer and were about to teach Ye Yu a lesson. "You're my brother-in-law, of course I have to care about you." Yue Qinghe spoke first.”
What a unique child. He was so arrogant and cold, yet he was so good-looking. However, she liked him.
Ye Yu glanced at Yue Qinghe as if he was looking at a monster and sneered,""Thank you for your concern."
He even addressed her as you and me. Not bad! Yue Qinghe smiled and decided to treat this child well in the future.
Yue Qinghe did as he was told. He pulled Ye Yu into the group of children, although everyone took a step back when they saw him, and Ye Yu smiled silently at the same time.
"Let's play together in the future!"
However, no one paid attention to her.
When he was bringing snacks to Ye Yu, Yue Qinghe was dragged aside by Ye Ye and asked solemnly,""Imperial Sister-in-law, do you really not know his background?”
"What background? Didn't I say it's not important?" Yue Qinghe asked curiously.
"He is Fang Pin's child." Ye Ye was anxious to express something.
"Who is Fang Pin?" Yue Qinghe didn't understand. Wasn't she just a concubine? She was still a concubine, not one of the four concubines or any other concubine, so what?
Just as Ye Ye was about to explain further, Yue Qinghe saw that the snow outside the door had stopped. He was very happy and shouted,""Let's go out and make a snowman!"
With that, he took Ye Yu's hand and walked out without any explanation, saying affectionately as they walked,""Can you make a snowman?" Ye Yu kept a cold face and did not answer.
"Do you like to play any games? Do you like to hear any stories?" Yue Qinghe did not give up and continued to ask.
Ye Yu still ignored him. Yue Qinghe went to the door and looked at the world covered in silver. The snow had stopped, and the world seemed to have become peaceful. Yue Qinghe picked up a ball of snow from the ground and threw it at Ye Yu when he was not paying attention." Haha!" Little wimp, hit!"
She had thought that Ye Yu would either be happy to fight her, or he would curse at her angrily, but who knew that Ye Yu, who had been hit by a snowball, was staring at her coldly and expressionlessly. This turned Yue Qinghe's joking behavior into a serious embarrassment.
Fortunately, another snowball was thrown at her very quickly. It was Ye Su. She looked at her with a smile and held a snowball in her hand.
Yue Qinghe soon started fighting with them. The snow was heavy this time, and the princes in the courtyard were in a mess. Laughter and laughter rang in his ears.
When Ye Mo of the Eastern Palace heard this, he smiled faintly. He knew that she would like it.
After the snowfall, Yue Qinghe's relationship with everyone else had reached an unprecedented harmony. The only person who made Yue Qinghe feel unstable was Ye Yu. During the snowball fight that day, Ye Yu had been watching them coldly and joking, not moving or saying a word. In the end, when he went back, he still refused the robe and bamboo hat that Yue Qinghe had prepared for him very stiffly.
He was a strange kid, but Yue Qinghe did not give up on him. For some reason, she just wanted to see Ye Yu 'subdued' by her in the end, and just thinking about it made her happy.
The days passed very quickly. He played with his brother-in-law and sister-in-law all day long and chatted with the concubines. Just like that, New Year's Eve arrived.
