Maybe it was because I was having sex with Lantern Festival too late, so Xiaoxiao fell asleep as soon as she touched her pillow.

I also had a plum blossom dream full of fragrant snow.

In a dazed dream, I was lost in the snowy plum blossom forest alone. Looking back, I saw a series of footprints of my own on the snow. Next to it was a series of footprints of a man, extending to the distance. I followed the footprints and knew in my heart that this footprint belonged to a man I care about.

Deep in my heart, I had a longing and joy that I had never had in my life. I walked through plum trees one by one and followed the footprints and finally saw a man's back under a huge ancient plum tree in front of me. Wearing a snow-colored cloak, the wind collar seemed to be shining with the luster of the cold moon. The hair was combed meticulously, but the hairpin was replaced by only one ancient plum.

Xiaoxiao stood quietly not far behind him, trying to call his name, but found that there was a cliff in front of the man, and he was afraid of disturbing him for a moment.

While hesitating, a flute sounded. It turned out that the man had blown the flute, which was an extremely sad tone, and it was like blowing a heartbroken.

Xiaoxiao woke up in a tangled way between sweetness and heartbreak. Looking at the broken plums embroidered on the bed tent, smelling the fragrance of citron in the room, feeling empty and uncomfortable.

"I really didn't expect this snow to fall!" The girl's voice sounded outside.

"It's rare that this spring snow is even heavier than last year's winter snow." He Lu said in his voice.

Xiaoxiao was addicted to that dream, unwilling to wake up.

Never like a man like that.

But in front of the two, there was a bottomless cliff.

It is said that dreams are a true portrayal of human hearts. Could it be that I have always had hidden worries about emotions? What are you afraid of?

Who is the man in the dream?

A smile sighed softly, and a little bit of melancholy sighed.

What if he doesn’t matter, this girl is only thirteen years old, so where do she get the sorrows and resentment?

The girls' voices became much quieter in an instant, and He Lu said softly: "Miss, are you awake?"

Xiaoxiao lifted a corner of the bed tent: "It's snowing heavily?"

"The snow has been falling all night, and now the golden hairpin is deep." He Lu rolled up the tent and saw that Xiaoxiao had already sat up, and casually tied his black hair into a bun.

"The girl looks bad," Helu looked at her smiley face, "Miss is going to ask Ping'an today, or the girl is too..."

Xiaoxiao stretched, then stepped on her shoes and got out of bed: "I'm not so lazy, I just slept less last night."

Helu was about to persuade her a few more words when she heard a little girl's voice coming from the corridor: "This is an invitation to the girl!"

He Lu frowned and said, "I'll post on the 16th day of the first lunar month... These two days are colder than in the twelfth lunar month." Although he was complaining, as a slave, he didn't dare to say anything more.

Xiaoxiao saw that the Eli had come in with the invitation. She saw that it was snow-green silver paper and wrote the standard style of the pavilion: Ning'an. Bang was waiting for the arrival of the cunjin Street Cental Snow Cottage.

Ning'an.Bang? Prince Ning?

Eli said from the side: "Miss Dantai also sent a message, saying that everyone would go together."

During the Chinese New Year, Xiaoxiao has been stuck at home and is about to gather with friends at this moment. He is naturally happy. This banquet was initiated by Mr. Ning. For everyone, this person is just a friend he has known for a short time, and this friend is still an adult man...

Suddenly, I heard the room be a little lively, and I heard the girl say, "It's Sister Qinghu in the Second Master's room who is here."

Xiaoxiao heard that he was not an outsider and said, "Is my second brother going to give me the Lantern Festival on the 16th day of the first lunar month? Why don't you let me in?"

The green fox smiled and brought in a jewelry box: "This is Persian jewelry that our second master gave to the girl. It was obtained from a Persian merchant two days ago. I thought the girl would like it."

"It's rare for the second brother to think about it," Xiaoxiao didn't know what kind of gift he gave back, and his eyes fell on an ornament on the small kang table. This was a big glass ball made of nothing to relieve his body in the first month of the year. There was a small plum blossom tile house covered with "white snow".

Qinghu looked at the crystal ball that he had never seen before, and saw the fifth girl upside down and then returned to its original state. It was like magical inside and it started to snow heavily. Qinghu had never seen such a wonderful thing before. At this time, he was just staring at it and didn't say anything for a long time.

"There is a kind of oil inside this glass ball. These white snow is made of white velvet." Xiaoxiao shook the glass ball in his hand, and there was a trembling snowflake inside. "I'll give this little thing to my second brother. In fact, it didn't make the effect I wanted. The snowflakes don't look very much."

Qinghu said repeatedly: "No wonder everyone says that the fifth girl is talented and can actually make such a magical thing without a teacher! Our second master must like it!"

Xiaoxiao had already opened the jewelry box sent by Tang Lichen, and it was indeed filled with exotic jewelry. Xiaoxiao opened one of the target lenses, and then bounced it away with a light snap button. One of them was a diorama and the other was a whole round sapphire.

Eli was not curious: "These Persian jewelry is indeed different from ours. Such a large sapphire is hidden in the mirror box."

Xiaoxiao recalled some legends about Persia: "We think the whole world is full of heaven, but the Persians don't think so. They say that the earth floats on a huge sapphire, and the sky is a clear mirror, so the sapphire blue can be reflected."

Doesn’t the mirror in your hand prove this legend?

All the girls felt that they had gained knowledge.

Xiaoxiao picked out a bird headdress inlaid with deep and shallow blue turquoise: "I will wear this today!"

Qinghu smiled and said, "Today's Ning family's snow-watching banquet, our second master will also be invited to go there. Is the fifth girl willing to go there with the second master?"

Now that we are going with Tang Lihuan, there is no need to be afraid of the identity of Mr. Ning, a strange man.

...

The advantage of having a car with Tang Lihuan is to have meat to eat.

Xiaoxiao looked at the cover bowl that the second brother took out from the hand stove in surprise, lifted the lid, and there were two fragrant small buckles inside.

While tasting the delicious meat, Xiaoxiao asked, "Are you afraid that your second brother is covered with the taste of a chef?"

"The barbecue hand stove is a must-have for carriages. Apart from this, it is not something you can eat wherever you go." Tang Lihuan replied seriously.

Xiaoxiao: You are not just going to eat wherever you go. Your eating skills have increased by at least 30% compared to your previous life...

"By the way, what does this Young Master Ning do?" After Xiaoxiao finished eating the little braised pork with satisfaction, she rinsed her mouth with the mouth-washing tea in the car, and then began to chew the osmanthus cake to refresh her breath.

"It's a mystery." Tang Lihuan then raised his eyes, "This person is alone in Kyoto, with zero family background and no way to check it."

"There is no way to check it? My second brother has checked someone?" Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Tang Lihuan said without changing his face: "Who told him to shoot archery well, he has to check the details."

"Oh... Is this man good at shooting archery?" It must be not easy to be praised by Tang Lihuan for his good archery. "What exactly is he doing?"

"It's a mystery." Tang Lihuan has always disliked this inconsistency, so he said with a bitter face, "This person is very mean on the surface, and has a bit of vulgarity, which really makes people unable to see the details."

"I heard that their family sells tea?"

"When he wanted to go to the Wen family to attend the banquet, he became a tea vendor; when he wanted to go to the Wei family to attend the banquet, he probably became a silk vendor... He did all kinds of business."

"According to my second brother, he is not mean."

"Maybe it is to use the doctrine of the mean to cover up the excitement." Tang Lihuan took a sip of tea to relieve the greasiness. In this first month of the year, why did he think of using a hand stove to make a covered bowl of stewed meat?

Xiaoxiao seemed to see what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "Since I ate seven vegetable soup every day, I have eaten vegetarian food every day, and it was not until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month that I lifted the ban. Therefore, the hand-stolen stewed meat made by my second brother is still very satisfying."

Xiaoxiao took vegetarian food for seven days in a row, which was considered a prayer for the seventh day of the first lunar month. After all, the day of the human is the child. Xiaoxiao hopes that Shanniang can give birth smoothly by then.

"I had known how many more pieces of simmered." Tang Lihuan poured tea for Xiaoxiao with a small teapot. "The war version of your magazine was very good. Almost every family in Kyoto has one."

"When it comes to war, I didn't expect that the prince consort would really lead his troops north! The idea of ​​the emperor is unpredictable. He has always been peaceful for Korqin or the Jianzhou Jurchen. I even thought he really wanted Princess Jiuxia to marry her." Xiaoxiao had been the editor-in-chief of the war version for two months, and was easy to get these current political news.

"This is a delaying strategy. The battlefield in the severe winter is not suitable for the Han people." Tang Lihuan smiled faintly.

"But, people from Korqin have already invited to discuss the kiss!" Xiaoxiao never hides his emotions in front of his second brother. "I never expected that the emperor would come up with such a... willful reason to refuse marriage."

Tang Lihuan almost sprayed out the tea in his mouth and waved his hand to his sister, meaning: There is no need to say this, no need to talk about it.

Xiaoxiao twitched the corners of his mouth, feeling that no matter what he said, he would make his words look dry and lack moisture.

The reason why the Emperor of Yuanlong Dynasty refused to marry was that the zodiac signs of men and women were incompatible.

Because Khorchin Khan and Princess Jiuxia’s zodiac signs are not in line with each other, Princess Jiuxia’s father disagreed.

Korqin's envoy of the marriage agreement came to the palace for a long time, and then was persuaded by the emperor to stay in the palace for the New Year together, including the two commanders of the red and blue flags, who had a lively New Year together in the palace.

After the Chinese New Year, the weather gradually warmed up, and the emperor suddenly remembered the issue of "the zodiac sign is incompatible".

The Korqin envoy was furious, believing that this move insulted the great Korqin Khan and even insulted the entire Mongolian race!

However, the emperor felt that when the two children talked about marriage, what was the matter of not being a clan? According to the rules of the Han people, the zodiac signs are a big deal, and this is related to the lifelong happiness of the daughter and must not be made up. Besides, this is also related to the happiness of Khan's marriage, so it is impossible to be careful.

The Korqin envoy regarded the command of the red and blue flags as "his own people". After all, the daughter of the commander-in-chief of the Jianzhou Jurchens married the prince of his tribe, and the two families should join forces at this time.

However, during his time in Beijing, the two red and blue flag commanders lived tremblingly in the horror atmosphere of "the whole people's soldiers". After staying here to spend the New Year with the emperor, they became the emperor's "owner" red and blue flags in a confused manner, and the Jianzhou Jurchens were less powerful.

Since the marriage was not reached, the envoy of Korqin always had to go back to report the letter, so the emperor would do his best to the landlord and send his son-in-law to send him back to report the letter. There were also a hundred thousand troops with him.

"This is done..." Xiaoxiao scratched his head, "We don't know how to write the magazine..."

"The 100,000 troops were not killed directly. Some were stationed at Yanmen Pass, some were guarding the grassland to escort the envoys, and some were to escort the Red and Blue Commander back to Jianzhou." Tang Lihuan explained slowly.

"I know this, I am now half a military expert." Xiaoxiao still scratched his head, never expecting that the emperor of this dynasty was such a willful and paranoid guy.
