There was a little snow in the early morning, and the sky was clear all morning, which made the first snow of this winter seem a little hasty. But after lunch, it started to snow again. It turned out that the sporadic snow in the morning was just a preview. At this time, the snow of this winter came on stage.
You Yuji sat on the beauty couch under the window, half-opened the window, and looked out at the heavy snow that suddenly fell. You Queyuan sat quietly beside her and looked out with her. The little princess looked at the heavy snow with a bit of curiosity without blinking. A six-year-old child would feel that time was long, and it seemed that the snow fell a long time ago.
The little princess moved forward, stretched out her little hand and looked out of the window, wanting to catch the snow. Unfortunately, the carved eaves were too wide and deep to block the wind and snow. The snowflakes that were so close to her could not sit on her little hand.
"Mother, can I go out to play? I know how to wear a coat and keep warm!" The little princess blinked her long eyelashes, revealing the clear eyes that only a child can have.
Most of the time, she always has such an obedient look when talking to people, which is completely in line with the identity of an innocent little princess.
You Yuji turned her head to look at Yushu who was writing behind the long desk. She put her hand on Queyuan's shoulder and said to Yushu, "Yushu, take your sister out to play for a while."
"Okay." Yu Shu immediately put down his pen and looked over with a smile.
Without You Yuji's further instructions, the people around the two young princes immediately took the warm coats and put them on. Que Yuan pulled her little hand away from the palace maid, and while pulling her brother's hand, she said sweetly, "I want you to hold my hand."
Yu Shu held her hand and led her out.
The palace maids followed behind him, talking about the snow with a smile. Que Yuan moved closer to her brother and asked in a low voice: "Brother, do you hate me?"
Si Yushu looked forward, looking at the heavy snow outside. He did not turn his head to look at his sister, but asked in a calm tone: "Why should I hate you?"
The little princess' bright eyes turned around quickly, her soft lips pursed, and she frowned quietly. Que Yuan just felt that her fun-loving things were always seen through by her brother. Would her brother only like obedient sisters? But she was not an obedient sister, and she didn't want to be obedient.
She likes to lie to people, because it's fun.
His sister was silent for a long time, and Yu Shu finally turned his gaze from admiring Luo Xue to look at the little princess. He squeezed his sister's hand slightly and said softly, "You are my sister, and I will never hate you."
Seeing that his sister still didn't say anything, Yu Shu added: "Brother is one year older than you. You can't grow old in vain. You should be more sensible and more tolerant."
Yu Shu's words were originally what Que Yuan said to him when she was being lazy. He was just repeating what his sister had said, but he didn't expect that his sister would be unhappy.
"What? You were only born half a quarter of an hour earlier than me. How can you use your age difference to bully others?"
Yu Shu was stunned for a moment. She was the one who said she was one year older, and she was also the one who said she was born half an hour earlier. So no matter what, she was the only one who could say it? Yu Shu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay. Sister is right."
Que Yuan snorted and muttered, "Father said that we are all the same. It is not reasonable for a brother to give in to his sister. I am no worse than you. We should take care of and protect each other."
"Yeah." Yu Shu nodded, "Sister is right."
Yu Shu responded perfunctorily, not because he disagreed with his sister's words, but because he had heard this many times before. However, he still found it very interesting when he saw his sister's tone imitating that of his father.
"Brother!" Que Yuan suddenly stopped.
Yu Shu turned his head and looked over. Que Yuan threw the snowball she had been holding for a long time at his face, then ran away with a smile. Yu Shu turned his head and wiped the snow off his cheek, with a little pain on his face. He looked at his sister who was running away, and his sister smiled and made faces at him.
Yu Shu looked at his sister and shook his head helplessly.
My sister's temperament is really unpredictable.
Quite cute.
Under the window, You Yuji looked at the backs of her two children. No one knew better than her that her youngest daughter was not as well-behaved as she appeared to be. After all, You Yuji had met the best actor and the best at pretending to be well-behaved in the world.
Thinking of that person, she couldn't help but slowly curl her lips.
Madam Jing stood beside her and watched with her. Madam Jing glanced at You Yuji's expression and said with a smile, "The two young masters are getting close."
"Tell the maid who went with me to take good care of it. If it gets cold, bring it back as soon as possible." You Yuji gave the order while getting off the beauty couch and walking to the square table with her skirt trailing the ground to sit down. She stopped the maid from serving her and made tea with great interest.
Madam Jing immediately instructed the palace maid, and when she came in again, she looked at You Yuji, who was drinking tea leisurely and elegantly, as if she was thinking about something.
When she first entered the palace six years ago, Madam Jing had many worries. In the blink of an eye, six years have passed. You Yuji seems to have not changed at all. She has not become "noble" because of her noble status. She is still so gentle and kind. Whether she was a girl in the Sidi grassland, or in the Jinnan Palace when she suddenly lost her father, or now she is the mother of the country, her gentleness and demeanor have never changed.
I always feel comfortable and relaxed when I am with her.
Talking to such a person, I couldn't help but soften my tone: "Everything has been prepared for tomorrow's banquet. Does Your Majesty have any other instructions?"
—Tomorrow is You Yuji’s birthday.
"No more instructions." You Yuji didn't take it seriously. She tasted the tea she made carefully and was quite satisfied with the taste.
After drinking tea, You Yuji leaned against the window, smelling the plum blossom fragrance, and lazily turned a few pages of the book to read. When she felt tired, she changed her clothes and went to the bed to take a nap.
When Si Que came in, You Yuzhi had already fallen asleep.
The maids all left, and the warm bedroom was quiet. A faint fragrance wafted out of the Yunhe Boshan stove, which was burning the spices prepared by You Yuji herself.
Si Que walked to the bedside, glanced down at the sleeping You Yuji, and complained unhappily: "You didn't wait for me again."
Even the voice of complaint was soft, so as not to disturb her good sleep.
Si Que quietly climbed onto the couch and lay beside You Yuji. He wanted to get closer to her, to bury his face in her arms and drown in her tenderness. But he was worried that he would bring a chill to her after coming in from outside, so he could only give up reluctantly.
But at this moment, You Yuji turned over, her eyes still closed, and whispered softly, "Come closer."
A handful of morning light was sprinkled into her sleepy and gentle voice, lingering with an itchy soft warmth.
Si Que's face, which had been gloomy for most of the day, finally smiled. He moved closer as he wished, buried his cheek in the crook of You Yuji's neck and rubbed it, calling her "sister" in a gentle and affectionate tone that no one else had ever heard.
You Yuji didn't know whether she heard clearly or not. Her hand on Si Que's waist moved up slowly, touched Si Que's slightly cold cheek, gently covered it for a moment, then moved to his earlobe, gently pinched it, then slowly put her hand down and fell into a deep nap again.
Soon, Si Que also fell asleep.
Si Que seldom dreams, but he was deeply immersed in a dream during the nap in the first snow. It was called a dream, but it was something that had happened before.
He dreamed that six years ago, You Yuji was abducted into the Eastern Palace by the former deposed crown prince Chen Lu.
That was the first time in his life that he felt fear. He found her, looked at her slender back as she hurriedly dressed, and stood at the door to calm himself before he could calmly approach her. He didn't dare let You Yuji see his eyes, so he could only stand behind her and bend down to help her dress. Her tears fell on the back of his hand, burning his heart so much that he died and lived and died again.
During the short nap, this scene played out countless times in Si Que's dream. Every time her tears fell on the back of his hand, the pain was so real that it made him feel choked in the heart again and again in his dream.
It was also from that time that he began to think about fighting for power.
Supreme power was never what he sought. He imprisoned himself in a magnificent palace just to better protect her and make her never shed a tear in her life.
Si Que woke up with a frown on his face, and saw You Yuji's gentle eyes looking at him.
"What's wrong?" You Yuji curved her lips and said, "Did you have a nightmare?"
Si Que didn't say anything. He just stared at her for a while and stretched out his arms to her: "You are having a nightmare. Sister, come and hug me."
You Yuji laughed at his nonsense, but still bent down to hug him. She recalled the last time she coaxed Que Yuan, and used the tone of coaxing a child to coax him, changing the words she used to coax Que Yuan last time to say something different: "Okay, nightmares are the opposite. Our Que Que is not afraid anymore."
As she spoke, she even patted Si Que's shoulder gently, just like she had done to coax Que Yuan before.
Nightmares are the opposite.
This is useful whether you are coaxing children or adults.
Si Que was not uncomfortable with her coaxing tone. On the contrary, he hugged You Yuji contentedly, and slowly tightened his arms around her, holding her tightly in his arms.
"Sister." He called out, paused for two breaths, buried his face in You Yuji's arms, and then spoke again: "Brother's good Yuanyuan."
Yu Shu and Que Yuan seemed to have returned, and Si Que could vaguely hear their voices. However, he was reluctant to let go, and even slowly closed his eyes in You Yuji's arms.
Si Que suddenly remembered something.
A long time ago, when he first had evil thoughts about this vixen, he planned to die in her arms, which would be a gorgeous death. After all, life was meaningless, and he lived just to think about how to die in a more fun way.
Si Que suddenly came to his senses and remembered his original intention.
Not only did he not die beautifully, he also solved the problem of the unique poison he had developed and lived on in a shameless manner.
It seems that the vixen's drug was really powerful, and it subtly turned his original intention into a joke.
Si Que opened his lips slightly, and just as he was about to sigh, he tasted the elegant fragrance of You Yuji. He suddenly smiled, hugged You Yuji who was leaning over, turned around, and the two of them rolled to the inside of the bed.
You Yuji gently pushed him and said softly, "You've slept for a long time, it's time to get up."
"No." Si Que buried his head in You Yuji's arms and said, "Sister, continue to coax me."
You Yuji lowered her eyes and looked at him for a long time. Si Que suddenly raised his eyes and asked her with bright eyes: "Sister, why are you looking at me?"
You Yuji was slightly startled, then smiled. She smiled slightly, but did not answer. She just raised her hand and gently stroked Si Que's eyelashes with her white fingertips, watching him blink slowly.
Si Que held her hand and bit her fingertips gently. He slowly kissed along You Yuji's fingertips, and when the kiss was about to land on You Yuji's lips, the footsteps of the palace maid broke the warmth in the room.
It turned out that You Yuzhi's mother had entered the palace.
At this time, Que Yuan was sitting on her grandmother's lap, holding her hand affectionately.
A young girl stood beside Madam You, looking at Que Yuan curiously.
"Xingxing, her name is You Lian, and she's your cousin."
Que Yuan curved her eyes and greeted him obediently.
When You Yuji came over, Madam You asked You Lian to take Que Yuan out to play. You Lian endured for a long time, and finally asked when no one was around: "Little Princess, why is your last name You?"
Que Yuan squatted beside the snowman and drew on its belly. She raised her little face to look at You Lian, blinked, and said, "My last name is not You."
You Lian frowned.
When she just arrived, she happened to hear her brother calling his sister "You Queyuan".
Que Yuan was drawing a turtle on the snowman's belly with a branch, saying, "On odd days, my brother's surname is Si and mine is You. On even days, my brother's surname is You and mine is Si."
You Lian opened her eyes wide in surprise, a look of disbelief on her face.
The author has something to say: If I postpone the second update, will you scold me? If not, I will write it tomorrow. If I can, I will write it now. qaq

(ps, my view of time is a bit messy. I usually consider the time before bed as a day. I don't have the consciousness to set a certain day to update at 24:00. But most people count according to Beijing time. I said before that I would update on the evening of x, but I updated at 12:30 am and was criticized for negative points. It's my fault that I didn't learn my lesson. I won't mention dates anymore. It's my fault.)
