This is an opportunity to negotiate with Rong Changan, and Li Hai cannot miss it. But he was also afraid that this would be a Hongmen banquet, so Li Hai decided to bring more people there, and put a few more martial arts people around him, to prevent Rong Changan from doing anything that would be unfavorable to him.
At dusk the next day, the clouds were dense and the north wind picked up. At dusk, there was a heavy snowfall. The entire imperial palace was shrouded in white, and the entire capital of Kyoto was deeply sunken in white snow.
Because he didn't sleep well the night before, Rong Chang An Shenshi fell asleep. He felt icy cold in his dream. When he woke up, he found that the surroundings were quiet and there was no sound. Logically speaking, at this point, night should have fallen, but outside the paper window White remains.
Could it be that the palace is wrong? In fact, it's not the time yet? Thinking of going to the tower to meet Li Hai in a while, Rong Changan got up, called Chuntao in, got dressed, and adjusted her makeup. But Chuntao brought in a fox fur cape and a mink jacket.
Rong Changan smiled, pointed at the fox fur cloak and said, "Chuntao, why did you pick out all the winter clothes? What time is it now! Take them back quickly and wear them out. If Zi Yan sees them, you will be killed." Let me make Chang'an a notoriety!"
Chuntao was surprised and said: "Queen, wearing this dress is just right for the occasion! Don't you know it's snowing outside?"
"It's snowing?" Rong Changan was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he heard of snow in October in Dajing Kingdom, "Chuntao, are you kidding me? It's only October season, how can it snow? "
Chuntao smiled innocently, like a child: "Queen, so you don't know! Open the window and look, the world has changed outside!"
Rong Changan frowned, doubtful of Chuntao's words, he stretched out his plain white hand and pushed Zhu Hu away. First, a gust of cold wind blows in with a few six-petaled flowers, which makes Rong Changan shiver. Take a closer look outside, it really has changed the world!
Everywhere is white. The blue glazed tiles on the powder wall were covered with snow, and the glazed tiles on the top of Xieshan Mountain were also covered with snow. The large water tank placed in the yard for fire was also covered with snow, and even the lotus pond was white. .
The whiteness and coldness set off Rong Changan's glamorous and beautiful face. She stretched out a hand and let the snowflakes fall on her palm, which was icy cold.
"It's really snowing! Why did the snow come so early this year! In previous years, it didn't snow until December."
Chuntao said: "Isn't it better for the snow to fall earlier? We can go out and play, make snowmen, make snow lions, and have snowball fights. What fun!"
Rong Changan looked worried: "You don't know! Farmers are afraid that the seasons will be out of order. Now that the snow falls early, there may be a drought in the coming year. Moreover, there has been a saying since ancient times that if a place suffers from a long-term drought, , or snow in June, it means that there are grievances in this place. The snow fell so early this year, it means that there are people in Dajing who call for injustice and go to prison."
"Could it be Prime Minister Yan that the queen is talking about?" Chun Tao said.
Rong Changan said: "I didn't say that."
"The sky is so good, let's go out and play for a while?" Chuntao asked.
Rong Changan couldn't bear Chuntao's request, so he put on his clothes, left Fengming Palace with Chuntao, and wandered to the imperial garden to play.
The feet creaked and creaked on the snow, and the gray pigeons flew on the palace wall, in the snow, and on the old pine trees, purring. They leave small footprints in the snow and look so cute.
At this time, not only Rong Chang'an and others came to the imperial garden, but also other concubines. For example, green concubine, moon concubine and so on. Rong Changan was about to make a snow lion when Chuntao called out softly:
"Queen, look, who is over there?"
Rong Changan looked in the direction Chuntao pointed, and saw Li Hai wearing a large apricot-yellow jacket walking in the snow under a section of pink palace walls. A sparrow in the tree.
Sometimes she nested a cloud of snow and hit Li Hai, Li Hai dodged the snowball lightly; after a while she took the snowball and hit magpies and pigeons on the trees, not to mention how happy she was.
When the concubines in the imperial garden saw Zi Yan and Li Hai, they greeted them one after another.
Rong Chang'an also noticed that there were many more guards around Li Hai than usual. Their bodies were shining with gold, they were wearing heavy armor, and they were holding sharp weapons in their hands.
Rong Chang'an sneered: Li Hai was afraid that I would assassinate him, that's why he made such a big show; he must have a chain mail lining under his jacket!
Zi Yan also saw Rong Changan, so she held Li Hai's arm and said with some fear, "Your Majesty, look, where is the Empress!"
Li Hai coughed twice, and said to Zi Yan, "Why are you afraid of her!"
Zi Yan rolled her eyes, and hugged Li Hai pitifully: "Your Majesty, I don't know why, but when I see Rong Chang'an, I get scared! I'm afraid she will do something bad to me."
Li Hai murmured in his heart: Not only are you afraid of her, but I am also very afraid of her!
Zi Yan said angrily: "Look at her, she didn't take the initiative to come over to greet you after seeing the emperor, she is really arrogant and has no rules! How can someone like her lead the concubines of the sixth palace?"
Li Hai twitched the corners of his mouth contemptuously: "She has been in the army for a long time, and she has naturally acquired the vulgar habits of the army. Don't pay attention to her!"
In a while, he will meet with Rong Changan on the North Tower, so no matter how much he wants to say, he can wait until he reaches the Tower.
Rong Changan walked over slowly, lowered his body, and greeted Li Hai gently: "Your Majesty, my concubine greets you!" Rong Changan came here to tease Ziyan, "Your Majesty, we will be upstairs in the North City later. There is an appointment, the emperor must come!"
With that said, Rong Changan cast a triumphant look at Zi Yan.
She likes to see Ziyan angry but unable to vent, the angrier Ziyan is, the happier Rong Changan is.
Ziyan rolled her eyes at Rong Chang'an, and asked Li Hai softly and resentfully, "Your Majesty, do you have an appointment with the Empress on the tower?"
Rong Changan answered for Li Hai, with a provocative tone: "Yes! I will enjoy the scenery on the tower with the emperor later. It seems that the heavens also want to approve of us. It is so wonderful to have such a beautiful snow on purpose. Yes! After a while, I also arranged the dance music "Green Waist" for the emperor, which is the emperor's favorite dance music!"
Didn't the dancers of "Green Waist" have already disbanded and left the palace, why are there still people dancing "Green Waist"
"Your Majesty, is it true?" Zi Yan asked bitterly.
Li Hai didn't dare to look at Rong Chang'an, so he lowered his head and groaned.
"It's such a cold day, what's there to enjoy the scenery! I think someone is a weasel giving a chicken a New Year's greeting, uneasy and kind!"
Rong Changan glanced at Zi Yan contemptuously, and still kept a smile on his face: "A vulgar person like you naturally doesn't know how to enjoy the flowers and enjoy the moon, but the emperor and I share the same interests, and we have something in common in this respect." !"
"Okay, okay!" Li Hai said to Zi Yan, "Let's go over there to see, there is more fun over there! Let the queen play here!"
Pulling Ziyan away from Rong Changan.
Indignant, Zi Yan bent down, grabbed a ball of snow on the ground, and threw it on Rong Changan's head.
