Some time passed.

Cangyun Kingdom ushered in a cold winter with heavy snowfall.

Qi Xiuwei was named Princess Lingyi because she cooperated with Shen Ningning to expose Xiumu's plan.

The emperor was particularly gracious and rewarded Qi Xiuwei and her mother, Mrs. Qi, with a princess mansion to live in.

A carriage covered with tapestry stopped outside the princess's mansion.

In late spring, he jumped down first to pick up the curtain: "Princess, come down slowly, it's freezing cold, be careful of slipping."

Yubai's hand stretched out and placed it in her palm.

The next moment, Shen Ningning's beautiful and delicate face appeared under the early winter sun.

She has snow-skinned red lips, black eyebrows and clear black eyes, shining with two waves of light, and her body is as lithe as a newly blossomed hibiscus.

She held up her skirt with her left hand and carefully got out of the carriage.

Qi Xiuwei had already heard the news and came out from the door to welcome him.

"Ning Ning, you're here. My mother was talking about you just now, saying that she knew you loved Deyuelou's snacks, so she asked the servants to buy them quickly. Now they are still warming on the stove because they are afraid of getting cold."

Qi Xiuwei was dressed in a light blue dress and a silver gown, looking very elegant and elegant.

When he smiles, his eyebrows are curved and gentler.

Shen Ningning asked Wan Chun to hand over the gifts she brought to her servants.

Then she covered her lips and chuckled: "Aunt Yu has always been kind to me. It's her fault that I haven't seen her for several days. No, she just returned to Beijing. I came to see you quickly. Is she feeling much better?"

"Well, the spiritual herbs and spring water you left behind are very useful after being used as medicine. The miracle doctor occasionally comes to check the pulse, and there is an imperial doctor on duty. My mother's health is getting better and better."

Qi Xiuwei said, holding Shen Ningning's arm, and the two of them walked along the corridor to the yard.

Along the way, I saw several red plum blossoms blooming in the courtyard, which was so beautiful.

Once the wind blows, the smell is refreshing.

Qi Xiuwei asked: "This time you and the prince went to inspect the two counties of Gyeonggi. I heard from Chang Yi that you have to visit two cities in one day. Are you exhausted this time?"

Shen Ningning smiled brightly, with red lips, white teeth, and a bright look in her eyes.

"I'm not tired at all. My brother takes good care of me. He agreed to take me with him to inspect, but when we got there, he saw it was snowing and wouldn't let me go out."

Qi Xiuwei blinked.

Shen Ningning was still talking: "Not only that, it's freezing cold, but we are not allowed to go out. There are many people outside celebrating the festival, but they are not allowed to go out, saying they are afraid of being squeezed and bumped into."

"We went to the government to check the accounts and suspected that there was something wrong with the local people's taxes. I checked for two hours before he stopped and insisted on taking me out for a walk."

Having said this, Shen Ningning pursed her lips, feeling a little helpless.

"I'm not too busy these days. He's stuffed me with local delicacies. Hey, speaking of this, the jujube cakes in Yingcheng are delicious. I'll take you to try them when I have time."

After Shen Ningning finished speaking for a long time, she didn't wait for Qi Xiuwei's response. When she turned around, she found that her friend was looking at her with a smile without saying a word.

"What are you looking at?"

"I'm looking to see when I'll have your and the prince's wedding banquet."

Shen Ningning's scalp exploded, and her watery eyes showed panic and embarrassment, like a kitten whose tail was caught.

"Xiaowei, it doesn't matter if others make fun of you like this. Even you say so, that's my brother!"

"What kind of brother? Brother Qing is more or less the same, and His Highness the Crown Prince is not your biological brother."

Qi Xiuwei covered her mouth and snickered: "Everyone can see that he likes you."

"That day at the emperor's birthday banquet, Lu Shaoyuan invited you to see the flowers. He dared to lift the table because he was afraid that you would be angry. He also said that his hands were shaking and he lifted it by mistake."

"Think again, why your eldest and second brothers, as soon as they heard that you were getting along with the prince, tried their best to follow you."

"Think again, why did the Prime Minister ask for orders over and over again before you accompanied the prince on your inspection tour this time, but he was suppressed by the emperor."

"Ning Ning, you are almost sixteen. You may be engaged to the prince one day."

Shen Ningning's face turned completely pink.

She pinched Qi Xiuwei's itchy flesh gently twice.

"Hey Xiaowei, I will subdue you today so that you will never dare to talk nonsense again."

Qi Xiuwei was ticklish and ran away laughing, with Shen Ningning chasing after her.

The two of them quarreled for a while, and finally they were both exhausted and panting, so they lay down directly under the red plum tree.

Wan Chun stamped her feet anxiously: "Princess, princess, get up quickly, it's so cold!"

However, Shen Ningning and Qi Xiuwei met and lay together.

The two girls looked at the bright sunshine shining through the clouds, surrounded by red plum blossoms and white snow.

It actually makes people want to immerse themselves in it and not want to get up.

"Xiaowei, there is actually something that Deputy Lieutenant Pei wants me to bring to you."

Shen Ningning said these words when she felt that the two of them were at peace.

Unexpectedly, Qi Xiuwei suddenly sat up.

She quickly patted the snow on her skirt, her eyes a little dark.

"Ning Ning, didn't we agree not to mention him?"

Shen Ningning also stood up: "You also know that Pei Yin always asks me to help carry things."

"You didn't accept what Meng Yi brought before, and he came to me again. I ignored him and refused more than a dozen times, but he kept asking every time."

"Brother said that if you really don't want to talk to him, just meet him and speak harshly, so that he won't think about apologizing to you again."

Qi Xiuwei lowered her eyelashes.

"Ning Ning, you know me," her voice was calm and sad: "I'm not angry with him, nor am I unforgiving of him, but..."

Her girlish thoughts are really complicated.

She wanted to act together with Shen Ningning, so she acted like that.

Pei Yin's disappointment in her was like a needle pricking her heart.

Even if the misunderstanding is resolved, the truth will be revealed.

Pei Yin also wanted to see her many times and apologize to her.

But Qi Xiuwei felt that this was no longer important.

Pei Yin didn't believe her, even though they had corresponded for many years and were close friends who talked about everything.

But he would always choose to doubt her the first time.

Qi Xiuwei felt uncomfortable just thinking about his eyes, so she simply avoided seeing him.

Seeing her firm attitude, Shen Ningning couldn't persuade her any more.

So he took her arm again and said, "Let's go see Aunt Jade. She must be anxious."

at this time.

Outside the princess's mansion.

Mo Lingwei's carriage arrived.

He opened the curtain with his slender fingers and took a look outside.

"Go, Shen Ningning has already gone in, it's just the right time for you to show up." Mo Lingwei said calmly.

He was dressed in a purple-gold robe, embroidered with a four-clawed dragon, his hair was tied up with a jade crown, and his thin eyes were sharp and dark.

Mo Lingwei said, looking at Pei Yin who was sitting next to him.

If he didn't want Pei Yin to pester Shen Ningning anymore, he wouldn't have tried his best to facilitate this matter.

However, Pei Yin was well prepared before arriving, but when he actually arrived at the door, he hesitated.

Mo Lingwei was about to lift the curtain and get out of the car, but saw him sitting there with his fists clenched.

"Are you going or not?" The prince frowned, already a little impatient.

Pei Yin handed the apology thing to Mo Lingwei.

"Please, Your Highness the Crown Prince, send it in on behalf of me. I misunderstood the princess before and now I visit you rashly. I'm afraid she will be displeased even more, so I won't go in..."

Mo Lingwei narrowed his eyes: "You are really..."

Useless!

How is it possible to pursue the person you like like this?

If Pei Yin keeps doing this, I'm afraid he will have to pester Shen Ningning to help make peace in the future.

Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows coldly: "That's all, Gu will just add fuel to the flames, don't back down at the critical moment."

Before Pei Yin could react, Mo Lingwei pressed his brows and raised the curtain to give instructions.

"Go and tell the princess that I passed by by chance and suddenly got a headache. It is not convenient for Qi Mansion to pick me up. I need to rest for a while."

Finally, with a deep look in his eyes, he added: "Guard Pei will see you off, let's see what the princess says."

Pei Yin was shocked. Before she could refuse, the prince's personal guards outside had already left.

Mo Lingwei didn't look like he had a headache.

He sat back next to Pei Yin with a lazy and carefree expression.

"If you don't seize this opportunity, just help Princess Lingyi find a good son-in-law and get married as soon as possible."

So as not to tire his Ning Ning.
