Count nine cold days, frozen snow.
In the 21st year of the Southern Qin Dynasty, in the imperial garden of the Southern Qin Palace.
Snow flakes all over the sky, falling down swirlingly. The magnificent imperial palace is luxurious and extravagant. At this time, the snow has covered everything, which adds a touch of elegance.
At this time, someone ruthlessly destroyed this rare tranquility.
"Ah-help! Come on, the princess has fallen into the water!!!"
The palace lady dressed in a sauce-purple Confucian robe shouted, and the snowflakes on the branches were so startled that they fell down, revealing a few bright red plums.
A big hole was opened in the frozen lake at this time, and a girl-like girl was faintly seen struggling desperately inside. Her hands were turned blue by the cold water, and her hands were raised high above the water, scratching in the air, like I want to catch something.
Taking the palace maid’s anxious tears straight away, the girl who fell into the lake could not hold on to it, she was so scared that she fell to the ground and could not move.
At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind, and hope flashed in the eyes of the maid, and she turned her head quickly and shouted: "Quick! Save the princess, the princess fell in!"
The boy who was called was dry and thin, and his cheeks were sore by the cold weather. His face was not abominable, but he was not good-looking. Only a pair of long and narrow phoenix eyes flashed through the yin bird from time to time.
The palace lady didn't have time to think about it, which palace eunuch was so indifferent to appearance, and repeatedly urged him to go into the water to save people.
The boy was only ten years old. He sneered coldly when he heard the palace lady's words, and took off his only winter clothes resigningly. A fierce boy plunged into the cold winter water and swam desperately towards the girl who had gradually taken advantage of it.
Winter clothes are thick and very absorbent. The boy drags the unconscious girl as if he is carrying a heavy stone behind him. If it were not for his inhuman willpower and brute force, she would have already dragged him down.
By then, not to mention that people can't be saved, even he himself may drown at the bottom of this icy and snowy lake.
Finally, when the whole person was cold and unconscious, the boy finally pressed the purple lips and pushed the girl to the shore.
The court lady hurried up, crying and screaming, her face filled with tears and nose. The unattended teenager averted his gaze in disgust, jumped ashore neatly, picked up the winter robe he had thrown on the snow, put it on without saying a word, and walked away with his stiff legs round and round—
Su Kui opened his eyes, and only felt that his brain was chaotically blurred, his body was not his own, and he couldn't even raise his hand. As soon as he moved, he immediately felt the pain of a needle in his throat, and he wanted to sit up. Falling down feebly.
The slight movement in the inner room awakened the lady of the night watch. She trot in quickly, lifted the veil, and saw that the girl lying there was still pale without a trace of blood, but what was pleasantly surprised was that she had her eyes open.
Thank goodness! The palace maid was greatly relieved, and the stone hanging high in her heart finally fell.
He hurriedly got up, helped Su Kui to sit up, put a pillow behind her waist and asked in a soft voice: "Princess, what do you think?"
Su Kui opened her mouth, "I...cough cough cough..." Just as she uttered a word, her throat immediately protested, and the burning pain made her unable to say a word.
Fortunately, the maid was clever enough, and hurriedly ran out to pour a cup of hot tea, carefully serving it to Su Kui.
