Three days later, the snow stopped and the sky was extremely bright. Looking around, the whole world was covered in silver. The white snow covered everything, and the pink jade carvings were of the same color. A silvery beauty was displayed before everyone's eyes.
Today, when the snow stopped, Mu Tianxue undoubtedly won the bet with Long Chenyi. At the entrance of Wolong Villa, the carriage and everything needed for the journey had already been prepared.
Mu Tianxue sat in front of the bronze mirror and put the fake birthmark as thin as a cicada's wings on her face again. Except for Feng Xinrou and the people from Wolong Villa, no one in the capital palace had seen her true face.
A person knows his true face.
She also thought about returning to the capital with her true appearance, but when she thought about the dangers of returning to the capital this time, she gave up the idea of showing her true appearance. Maybe at a critical moment, her true appearance would save her life.
.
"Master, don't you plan to return to the capital in your true form?" Lin Yue'er held a fox fur cloak in her hand, standing behind Mu Tianxue, and asked unclearly.
"Well" Mu Tianxue hummed lightly, put on the veil on his face, stood up and said, "It's not the time yet!"
Lin Yue'er nodded thoughtfully, put the cloak on her, and said softly: "The carriage has been prepared. Eunuch Li and other guards are waiting in the main hall."
"Where's the village owner?" Mu Tianxue tied the cloak ribbon by herself. She didn't see Long Chenyi during breakfast. She didn't know where he had gone. She won the bet between the two of them, so she set off today, presumably Long Chenyi
Chen Yidian was very angry.
"My subordinates heard that the owner of the village left the villa early in the morning with a group of guards for some unknown reason. Until now, he has not shown up." Lin Yue'er showed a puzzled look and said suspiciously: "The owner of the village can't be
, if you don’t agree with the master to set off today! Otherwise, we are about to set off and the owner of the village hasn’t shown up yet.”
"Let's go! It's time to set off." Mu Tianxue arranged her clothes and walked out of the room. Long Chen also personally promised that he would set off as soon as the snow stopped. Now that he was leaving the village with a group of guards, he probably didn't disagree with her departure.
, it is very likely that he left the village early in the morning to inspect the road back to the capital.
After several days of heavy snow, the roads were covered with snow and frost. It would be difficult for the carriage to walk without exploring the road in advance. Moreover, if the slightest mistake was made, it would go into a snow ditch or a landslide. Long Chen must have brought those guards there.
The way is open.
"Slave meets the Sixth Imperial Concubine"
As soon as Mu Tianxue arrived at the square of the main hall, Eunuch Li greeted him with a smile. These days, he was extremely anxious and anxious, fearing that his return to the capital would be delayed again and again and he would not be able to explain to the emperor.
"Eunuch Li, let's set off!" Mu Tianxue said and walked towards the carriage.
Lan Yi stood in front of the carriage. When she saw Mu Tianxue approaching, she opened the curtain and said hurriedly: "Young madam, there is no need to wait for the master, the master has already taken action in advance."
Mu Tianxue nodded, indicating that he already knew, and stepped on the step ladder to get on the carriage. Later, Lan Yi and Lin Yue'er also got on the carriage, while Zi Yi was responsible for driving the horse.
Eunuch Li and his follower, the young eunuch, also got on a carriage. No one was seen sitting on the other carriage. However, Mu Tianxue guessed that the person sitting inside must be Yumian, who was trying to protect her body and belly.
My baby will definitely need jade noodles on this journey.
After Mu Tianxue and others got on the carriage, Ziyi drove the horse out of Wolong Villa, driving slowly all the way. Mu Tianxue opened the window curtains, and a cold wind rushed towards her face. She shivered and stretched her head.
Look out at the road.
I saw hill-like snowdrifts piled up on both sides of the road. The middle of the road was clean and there was no snow except for a little bit of snow water. It was obvious at a glance that the snow on the road had been swept aside.
Seeing Mu Tianxue looking out the window, Lan Yi said: "Master, when I was in Yinshi, I saw that the snow had stopped, so I took my guards and went to clear the road to clear the snow. To ensure the safety of the young lady, there was no place to clear the snow on this road, and the carriage
Never step in."
"Yin Shi?" Mu Tianxue let go of the window curtain and looked away from the window. Yin Shi was already four hours away from Chen Shi. Long Chen also brought his guards and swept away the snow for four hours. "Your master, breakfast
It hasn’t been used yet, so there must be food on the carriage!”
"Everything has been prepared. There are two horses specially placed for food and washing clothes." Lan Yi said respectfully: "Young Madam, the cotton wool you ordered your subordinates to prepare is also on the carriage."
"That's good." Mu Tianxue nodded slightly. In order to avoid being too bumpy on the road, she specially ordered Lan Yi to get a few tables of cotton wool and prepare them in the carriage. Firstly, they could be used to cushion the body when the bumps were bumpy. Secondly, it was windy and cold.
When the weather is hot, you can cover your body to keep out the cold. It is said that it is not cold when it snows, but when it melts. Therefore, it would not be wrong to prepare more warm cotton wool.
The carriage was swaying, making people feel drowsy. Mu Tianxue leaned in the carriage and felt sleepy. Sitting in the carriage, it seemed that he could do nothing but sleep. He couldn't stand it if he admired the snow scenery.
In the biting cold wind, the only way to pass the time is by sleeping.
"Master, if you are sleepy, let's rest for a while and go down to get some cotton wool." Lin Yue'er saw Mu Tianxue slowly closing her eyes, seeming to be asleep but not sleeping, so she opened the curtain and jumped out of the carriage, and then fetched a bed of cotton wool.
Cover her.
Mu Tianxue felt warm all over her body. She closed her eyes comfortably and fell asleep after a while. She didn't know how long she slept. She felt that the hard inner wall of the carriage she was leaning against seemed to have become softer, and there seemed to be a warmth.
a feeling of.
She opened her sleepy eyes and looked beyond where her head rested. What caught her eyes was a patch of light blue. Her head was leaning on a broad and strong chest. When she raised her eyes and looked up, she saw Long Chen.
Yi closed his eyes slightly and held her shoulder with one hand. There was no expression on his handsome face. He didn't know whether he was asleep at the moment or just closing his eyes to rest.
"Also..." Mu Tianxue tried to call him softly. She was sleeping so deeply that she didn't even know when he got on the carriage. Seeing that Long Chen didn't seem to hear him, she lowered her head and continued to lean on her chest.
forward.
When Lan Yi said that he went out to clear the snow in the village during the Yin period, he must have stayed up all night last night and led the guards to clear the snow. She must be tired now, so she stopped making any sound and leaned in his arms, closing her eyes and resting.
stand up.
The carriage moved slowly, and I don’t know how far it traveled. But it can be imagined that at the current slow speed of the carriage, it can only travel less than 10 kilometers in an hour. In ancient times, everything was good, but this means of transportation was really too backward.
.
In modern times, you can get into a car and arrive there in a few hours. You don't have to suffer the pain of the journey. Thinking about spending the next month or so on this carriage, Mu Tianxue couldn't help but sigh.
"What's wrong? Why are you sighing?"
Just after Mu Tianxue sighed softly, a faint voice came from his ears.
Mu Tianxue opened her eyes, looked up at Long Chenyi who had his eyes closed, and said slowly: "You... aren't you sleeping?"
"I woke up because of you." Long Chen also opened his eyes and lowered his head to look at her, "Why are you sighing? Are you worried?"
Mu Tianxue left his arms, lay down in front of the car window, opened the window curtain, looked out the window, and sighed: "This way of driving is too torturous. Do you know that there is a kind of transportation that can transport people
It can be carried to the sky, and it can also travel thousands of miles in a day, and it will not even take an hour to get from Wolong Villa to the capital."
Long Chen also listened to her words, shook his head with a smile, poked his finger at her neck, and said: "You can dream about it! Traveling thousands of miles in a day? You can't fly that fast?"
"Alas..." Mu Tianxue sighed deeply and said, "Just because you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Moreover, its flying speed is much more powerful than Qinggong. It can carry hundreds of people at a time.
people."
Long Chen also grabbed her neck, pressed her to his chest, and said, "The more you say it, the more outrageous it becomes. I have a good imagination, but it's just too ridiculous."
