On the day of Lidong, Shen Jiahe went to send cold clothes to Ji Chang and Xu Xiuxin and his wife.

The leaves of the silk tree have all fallen, and the bare branches are criss-crossed, swaying in the wind under the gray sky.

Shen Jiahe placed sacrifices in front of the grave, picked up a pile of fallen leaves, lit them with a torch, and then burned all the paper money and Mingyi on the fire.

He sat on the ground and whispered to the lonely grave: "Ten years, but a flick of a finger. At the beginning, I swore that I would raise Niannian to grow up, but I broke my promise and left him alone in Bo Guiyun I am sorry for him, and even more sorry for you. But I can't help myself. I died once ten years ago. Since then, I have been hiding in Tibet and wandering. I can't let Niannian suffer with me... There is that person Protect him, I think he should have lived a good life these years. I just don’t know what he looks like now, whether he has a girl he likes...I really miss him, and I hope to see him again in my lifetime..."

Shen Jiahe sat in the cold wind for a long time before getting up to leave.

When approaching the entrance of the village, snow particles suddenly floated in the sky.

This is the first snow this year.

The originally gloomy mood suddenly improved.

When I got home, I lit the charcoal stove, sat in front of the window, and watched the snow fall quietly.

The snow is getting bigger and bigger, and the snow particles turn into snowflakes, which gradually make everything in sight white.

I sat until dark, made some simple food to eat, and went to bed.

He thought that if it snowed all night, he would be able to build a snowman tomorrow morning.

The palace maid came in with the toiletries, Pei Yi saw the snow flakes on her shoulders, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Is it snowing?"

The maid said: "Yes, it started at Haishi last night, and it hasn't stopped until now."

Pei Yi coughed twice and said, "Open the window."

The palace maid said: "Your majesty, your dragon body is not healthy, and you can't stand the cold..."

"Open it!" Pei Yi interrupted her in a deep voice.

The palace maid shuddered suddenly, quickly answered "Yes", put down the washbasin and opened the window.

The wind brings snowflakes in.

The outside is covered in silver, dazzlingly white.

Pei Yi smiled slightly.

When the maid at the side saw it, she was stunned.

Ever since she was transferred to serve in front of the imperial court the year before last, she had never seen the emperor smile.He has always been as cold as ice, making people daunting.She only found out today that he can laugh too, and when he smiles so handsomely, he is completely different from usual.

Pei Yi smiled, and said in a deep voice, "Tell Liu Geng to get ready. I'm going out of the palace."

The court lady wanted to persuade her, but after thinking about it, the persuasion was in vain, and the emperor would blame her, so she gave up, said yes, bowed and left, and went to find the eunuch Liu Geng through the snow.

Liu Geng sighed after listening to the maid's words, and said: "Our family knows, go and do it yourself."

After the maid left, the little eunuch asked, "Master, isn't the emperor always sick, why is he going out of the palace suddenly?"

Liu Geng looked at the vast snow outside, and said: "Every winter when the first snow falls, the emperor will go to a place where nothing can be shaken."

The little eunuch Nahan asked, "Where?"

Liu Geng took a look at him and said, "Why do you ask so many questions? Hurry up and prepare!"

The little eunuch hurriedly agreed with a smile, and went to prepare for leaving the palace.

Pei Yi simply had breakfast and left the palace in a warm sedan chair.

He was wearing fox fur and holding a hand stove in his hand, but he still felt cold and coughed continuously.

Liu Geng heard it from outside, and persuaded through the curtains: "Your Majesty, why don't you go today, and it won't be too late to go when you are well. It's just past the beginning of winter, and the winter is still growing. There must be a few more snowfalls."

Pei Yi managed to stop coughing, but did not answer, leaning against the wall of the sedan chair and closing his eyes to rest his mind.

Liu Geng sighed silently, knowing that he couldn't be persuaded, so he didn't say anything more.

Half an hour later, the warm sedan stopped at the gate of the Shen family's desolate house.

Pei Yi got off the sedan chair, went in alone, and closed the door behind her back, while the others stood in the wind and snow.

Liu Geng waited for an hour, his body was frozen stiff, but Pei Yi hadn't come out yet.

He was a little uneasy.In previous years, Pei Yi would come out after staying for an hour at most.

Waiting patiently for another half an hour, Liu Geng couldn't wait any longer, and rushed in with a few guards. When he saw the scene in the courtyard, he was shocked and horrified, and cold sweat wet his back instantly.

There is a tall snowman standing in the courtyard.

Pei Yi sat on the ground wearily, with his eyes closed, leaning against the snowman, his head and face covered with snow, as if he had become another snowman with no vitality left.

The snow in Lidong lasted for two days before resting, and there were a few light snowfalls intermittently, and the winter solstice arrived in a blink of an eye.

The winter solstice coincided with the market day, so Shen Jiahe woke up at dawn.The water in the water tank was frozen, and it took him a lot of effort to break the ice, scooped up a few ladles of water, poured it into the pot, and started to light the fire.It took a long time to roast in the fire in the stove before I felt warm on my body.When the water boiled, he put the dumplings made yesterday into the pot, and the aroma of the dumplings soon wafted out mixed with the steaming heat.The fire in the stove was still very hot, Shen Jiahe stopped the firewood, poured a ladle of hot water from the back pot into the washbasin, mixed some cold water, and began to wash his face.After washing your face, the dumplings are ready to come out of the pan, which just filled a bowl.The shepherd's purse and tofu stuffing he wrapped is just right salty and delicious.After eating the dumplings, I washed the dishes and pots, wiped my hands, went to the study to fix the calligraphy and paintings, and waited for a cup of tea, when I heard Shao Yuan calling: "Jiahe! Let's go!"

Shen Jiahe agreed, took the bag and went out.

Shao Yuan's donkey cart was replaced with a carriage in autumn, and it was Du Yuee's money.

Shen Jiahe didn't know what method Du Yue'e used to teach Shao Yuan to accept her funding, because Shao Yuan had a very strong self-esteem, Shen Jiahe asked more than once to help him change a better car, but was declined.

The horse-drawn carriage has compartments to keep out the wind and rain, and is much faster than a donkey cart. It only takes a quarter of an hour to travel from Baitou Village to Baitou Town.

Shen Jiahe and Du Yue'e got off the car at the gate of Mo Ke Zhai, and Shao Yuan drove away.He has long given up helping people transport goods and found a new job - Du Yue'e's younger brother, Du Yuechen, has been an apprentice in a pawnshop in Xunyang for three years. As the shopkeeper, Shao Yuan was in charge of folding goods, responsible for the parceling, storage, and labeling of collateral, and also did some chores.

After opening the door, Du Yuee was in charge of cleaning, while Shen Jiahe placed calligraphy and paintings.

Before it was set up, two men came in together, chatting while choosing calligraphy and paintings.

Shen Jiahe didn't pay attention to what they said at the beginning, but when he suddenly heard the word "Jiabeng", he was struck by lightning, and he was stunned. He didn't come back to his senses until the two men picked out calligraphy and paintings and asked him to pay. Come on, ask with a tight voice: "The two of you just said 'Ji Beng'... Who are you referring to?"

One of the men said: "Who else can it be, of course it is the current emperor."

Shen Jiahe grabbed the edge of the counter, was silent, and asked, "When did it happen?"

"Five days ago." The man frowned and said, "Don't you know such a big thing?"

Shen Jiahe shook his head blankly.

Pei Yi is dead?

Pei Yi is dead...

How is this possible?
