"New Year? Today is the new year? "
Zhao Xiaoxue didn't expect that today would be the last day of the year. The days passed so quickly, no wonder Chu Yufeng was so busy, he was preparing for the new year.
"I ask that the wangfei prepare in advance. There will be a grand banquet in the palace today, and His Highness the Southern King will also be waiting for you at the mansion later!"
If it wasn't such a big thing, the steward wouldn't dare to kidnap anyone halfway, mainly because the Princess of the South had learned a little too well. When she was studying, no one was allowed to disturb her, and she wouldn't listen to anything others said.
"Miss, let Qing He dress up for you!"
Previously, Qing He had been dragged by the little miss to learn how to read. Now, she was just in time to get rid of him.
"Is there any use in dressing up well?"
She and Chu Yufeng had been married for quite some time, but they didn't have the enthusiasm for a new marriage. They were only busy with other things and Chu Yufeng was very busy. Thinking of this, Zhao Xiaoxue didn't have the enthusiasm to dress up.
"Miss, what's wrong with you? With how beautiful you are, if you were to put on even the slightest bit of makeup, you would simply be a fairy descending to the mortal world! "
With that said, Qing He impatiently pulled Zhao Xiaoxue into the house to make trouble.
Although Qing He was young, she had a pair of delicate hands. After she was carefully dressed, her originally beautiful appearance instantly became that of a Heavenly Immortal. She didn't even need to look at herself in the mirror.
At the door of the Southern King's estate, the gatekeeper had forgotten to remind his wife that the Southern King was still waiting inside the carriage!
"Get in the car! If you don't leave now, you'll be late! "
The guard realized that he was in the way after hearing the South King's urging so he quickly moved away.
Women are naturally fond of beauty, and Zhao Xiaoxue was no exception. However, she was not usually proud of this beauty, not to mention that the person she liked did not seem to care about her beauty. From then on, she would sometimes think that this appearance was a bit unsightly, at least when she went out, it would be inconvenient.
"I'm here, let's go!"
Zhao Xiaoxue got on the carriage and opened the curtain to see the purple-robed Young Master. She greeted him and turned around to sit in her seat.
After being on the same horse for so many times, Zhao Xiaoxue was also very clear on the habits of the man beside her. She didn't know if he was really tired, or if he was pretending to be profound.
As for the bored her, other than lifting the curtain to take a look at the scenery, it was also a habit for her to turn around and admire the beautiful man who was resting with her eyes closed.
However, this time, she felt something was different. Although she had only taken a quick glance, she had clearly discovered that this man who had his eyes closed this whole time had his eyes open.
In order to confirm this, Zhao Xiaoxue carefully turned her head. From the corner of her eyes, she actually managed to find two pairs of eyes. Gradually, Zhao Xiaoxue felt like her face was burning and her ears were burning.
However, what made people even more puzzled was that only the left side who was being stared at by a man had this kind of reaction, while the right side's temperature was normal. This kind of cold and hot expression made people feel uncomfortable, so Zhao Xiaoxue couldn't let this situation continue.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" I will be embarrassed! "
After saying so, Zhao Xiaoxue felt her nervous body becoming relaxed. She no longer felt shy and directly turned around to face him.
What was surprising was that Zhao Xiaoxue had already shifted her gaze away from him. Although it was only for a split-second, she could clearly see a hint of panic and shyness on his face. Oh my god, could it be that this man was also shy? Thinking of this, Zhao Xiaoxue couldn't help but feel happy in her heart. She said with an excited expression,
"Yu Feng, take a good look. Am I that beautiful today? Take a look at this purple robe. Do you think it's a good match? "
Zhao Xiaoxue really wanted to get confirmation. If it wasn't because she was in the carriage, she really wanted to ask him directly. Did she have a reaction?
"En!"
It was obvious that this result wasn't very satisfactory. In any case, they could be considered husband and wife, and moreover, they had lived and died together, that sad and beautiful couple. Zhao Xiaoxue knew that Chu Yufeng was very protective of her, at least in front of outsiders, but when it was just the two of them alone, they became quite distant.
"Yu Feng, actually, we are husband and wife. Maybe we can change that... Get closer! "
As she spoke, Zhao Xiaoxue took the initiative to grab the man's arm and began to slide down the arm. Then, her fingers landed on the back of the man's hand, and when they touched, she felt an electric shock, causing her body to stiffen.
"How does Consort Wang want to get closer to This King?"
Hearing the question from the man beside her, Zhao Xiaoxue suddenly felt a little regretful. Just now, she had used the little technique that she had learned from watching sci-fi movies. In the television, as long as it was like this by a woman, the male protagonist would take the initiative to respond and then the two of them would embrace.
"Your hands are so good! The feeling of holding it is even better! "
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhao Xiaoxue could only think about this. As she spoke, she pulled on the man's hand. The man's hand was indeed quite good. His big hand was very warm. It made people feel very warm in this cold winter.
"If you like it, then hold it like this!"
The man did not refuse, allowing the woman to fiddle with his hand.
"Alright!"
Zhao Xiaoxue did not refuse. They were husband and wife, and this sort of intimacy was the right thing to do. However, as a modern man, she was very clear that this was not the only thing going on between husband and wife. In order to make their relationship more harmonious, Zhao Xiaoxue also knew that she had to think of a way.
She really wanted to know how they did it the first time. Experience was really too important, but she didn't have that many memories. She really shouldn't have done it!
"The Southern King and the Southern Princess have arrived!"
Even though Zhao Xiaoxue wholeheartedly wanted to promote the relationship between the two of them, she knew that some matters still had to be discussed when they returned. Thus, after arriving at the Imperial Palace, she released her hand and followed closely by the man's side.
This wasn't the first time Zhao Xiaoxue had entered the palace, so she had some understanding of the palace's situation. It was just that this time, she was participating in a New Year's dinner. The difference between sunlight and lighting was too great.
Under the flickering light, Zhao Xiaoxue felt that there was something following her in the grass by the side of the road. Although she had seen ferocious beasts before, she wasn't sure when she would encounter some unknown creatures.
Perhaps, she should hold the dagger in her hand. Just as Zhao Xiaoxue was about to pull out the dagger, her wrist was instantly grasped by someone:
"What's wrong?"
"There seems to be something in the grass!"
The moment the man held onto her wrist, Zhao Xiaoxue felt a lot more at ease. As expected, a man's hand was much better, at least it would be able to warm up her hand that was drenched in cold sweat.
