Tang Zhenzhen stayed in bed, depressed. It was annoying enough that the little princess had been ignoring her, and her brother had sent a letter from the border saying that he wouldn't be coming back for the new year.
News of what happened at the feast had already spread to the border. Her brother had praised her a lot in the letter and sent her a lot of new fruits. When she read the last sentence, saying that she would not be back in time for the new year, Tang Zhenzhen suddenly became listless.
Without her brother by her side, there was no point in staying up late. Listening to the lively firecrackers outside, Tang Zhenzhen sat listlessly with the general until dawn. She deeply felt that this was the worst year in her life.
Tang Zhenzhen wanted to go back to her room to catch up on her sleep after the New Year's Eve, but she saw the heavy snow fluttering outside her room.
She reached out to take a snowflake and watched it melt in her palm, turning into a line along with her palm. In her memory, the young man's appearance was blurry and clear in the snow. His smile was as bright as the sun and had warmed her for many winters.
Tang Zhenzhen suddenly remembered that it was snowing heavily in the palace now. Was the little princess also looking at the snow like her, feeling depressed and bored?
Since she was ignoring her, she could go and find her. Tang Zhenzhen ran into the snow with an umbrella and hurried to the entrance of the palace.
Her fingertips holding the umbrella were cold. She wanted to enter the palace as soon as possible, but she forgot that she did not have a token and was stopped by the guards.
"If there's anything you need, I can get someone to report it.”The guard stopped her with one hand. He was polite, but his tone was firm. He could report it, but he could not let her in.
Tang Zhenzhen thought that it would be impossible to ask the princess out directly, but she could ask Xu Chang for help.
"Please tell the Second Prince that I will wait for him here.”Tang Zhenzhen looked at him gratefully.
A moment later, Xu Chang walked toward Tang Zhenzhen in a blue brocade robe embroidered with auspicious clouds. His eyes were clear and his smile was bright." Zhenzhen, why aren't you at home for the New Year?"”
"I'm bored. Can you help me ask the princess out?”Tang Zhenzhen said directly.
Xu Chang was a little confused." What happened to you guys?”
She sighed and waved her hand." Don't mention it. I was in the limelight at the banquet and the princess is angry with me.”
"I see. Wait here for a moment.”Xu Chang left in a hurry with an umbrella, his back gradually blurring in the snow.
Tang Zhenzhen blinked away the falling snow on her eyelashes, and he was gone. What would she say later? Perhaps the princess would still be angry with her.
She hesitated for a while and felt that it was not a big deal. It was not her fault.
The snow continued to fall tirelessly. Tang Zhenzhen shook off the accumulated snow on the umbrella. The snowflakes fell along the edge of the umbrella, forming a white curtain of snow. After the snow fell, Xu Huiya was standing in front of her.
She was wearing a peony-red palace dress with exquisite patterns embroidered all the way to the hem of her dress.
Her red clothes and black hair were dazzling in the white snow. When she saw Tang Zhenzhen, her petite face turned to Xu Chang." You tricked me to come here just to see her?"”
Xu Chang didn't say anything and looked at Tang Zhenzhen.
Tang Zhenzhen was particularly anxious. She couldn't drag Xu Chang down. She wanted to run over and call her name, but she was stopped by the guards as soon as she reached the city gate.
The snow was thicker than her ankles, and she lost her balance after being blocked. She staggered a few steps back and fell into the snow.
The umbrella fell from her hand and fell into the snow. Xu Chang quickly ran out of the city gate and reached out to help her up.
Xu Huiya's heart skipped a beat when she saw her lying in the snow. She remembered the time when she had pretended to fall because she had put down the peony painting to help her up in order to destroy it.
Also, that time in the carriage, she had comforted herself and risked her life to pull the reins. In the end, she had fainted in the carriage with a pale face.
She ran out of the city gate. The palace maid who was holding an umbrella behind her did not expect the snowflakes to fall on her black hair unscrupulously. She ran to Tang Zhenzhen's side and helped Tang Zhenzhen up with Xu Chang.
Tang Zhenzhen stood up. Her thick eyebrows were covered in snow, and her face was also covered in snow. The princess could not help but cover her mouth with her wide sleeve and laugh out loud.
Tang Zhenzhen wiped her face nonchalantly, squatted down, and held the snow in her hands into a ball to greet her.
Her bright red clothes were stained with snow. The princess was annoyed. She patted the snow off her clothes and grabbed a handful of snow to hit Tang Zhenzhen's face.
Tang Zhenzhen smiled in relief. She no longer had any scruples and started to play like how she had snowball fights when she was young.
Xu Chang, who was standing at the side, curled his lips. He watched them play in the snow and walked away tactfully. Leng Wuwei was hit by a snowball on his back. He looked back and saw Tang Zhenzhen smiling brightly at him.
The usually polite prince did not care about his image and picked up a handful of snow to play with the two of them. Xu Chang silently said in his heart that this was the first and last time. Let go of her reservations and indulge herself.
The winter evening came particularly late. The three of them built a snowman on the open space at the city gate.
The little princess felt that she had never laughed so happily before. She did not care at all that her black hair was wet from the snow, but she was so anxious that the palace maid who was holding the umbrella was worried.
Tang Zhenzhen patted the snowman's head. It was already dusk. She looked at the two people who had also made their own snowmen.
"We'll make our New Year's wishes here.”She dusted off the snow on her hands. Her palms were so cold that she couldn't feel anything, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"Alright," The little princess put her hand to her lips and breathed out hot air. The palace maid holding the umbrella followed her nervously, afraid that she would freeze the princess. They could not afford to do so.
Xu Chang stared at his snowman. It had a fat body and a big round head. He never thought that he would have such a day to play with them. If his mother knew, she would probably say that he was fooling around. However, this feeling was really good. Making a wish here? It sounded pretty good.
Seeing that they agreed, Tang Zhenzhen closed her palms and made a wish to her snowman." I don't have any big wishes in this life. I just want to be happy."”
The little princess 'wish was also very simple." I wish to have someone of one heart. The white head will not be separated."
Xu Chang saw them close their eyes and make a wish. Worry welled up between his brows. What he wanted could not be obtained by making a wish, and his wish was not easily granted.
Tang Zhenzhen was the first to make her wish and ran to the two of them to ask. The little princess blushed and lowered her head without saying a word. Xu Chang said, Miss Tang, it's getting late. It's time to go back."
Tang Zhenzhen looked up at the sky. It was a little gray, but the snow was still falling." I'll come back another day."”She could only say goodbye to them reluctantly and stand at the city gate to watch them leave.
She didn't know when the next day would be. In fact, there was no tomorrow. The good times that belonged to them would only stay here and would never come back.
As for Tang Zhenzhen's wish today, when she became the Empress and became the mother of the world in the future, she couldn't help but laugh at herself at that time. It turned out that being happy forever was the greatest wish in the world.
She stepped into the general's manor, drenched. She had only taken a few steps when the general frowned and walked over. He scolded,"The bigger you are, the more unruly you are."
After saying that, he called for a wooden stick and prepared to serve the family law.
Tang Zhenzhen's bright face immediately turned gloomy. She said unhappily,""Father, are you really going to hit me during the new year?”
"You still know about the New Year?" The general showed no mercy at all. He picked up the stick and was about to hit her.
"The child is already so big. Why are you still hitting him?”Just as the stick fell on Tang Zhenzhen's lap, her mother stepped forward and grabbed it, trying to persuade her.
That's right, his father really did not have to be so angry. What she did not know was that not only was her father so angry at her, even the Empress was so.
When the Empress heard that Tang Zhenzhen was playing with the princes and princesses in the snow, she put down her teacup heavily, splashing a few drops of boiling tea." This girl is crazy. Even the princess is crazy with her."”
She rushed to the princess's residence and saw that Xu Huiya's red palace dress was deeply wet from the snow. Her good impression of Tang Zhenzhen instantly disappeared.#
