Peach

The little red bird staggered forward from the bounce, and fell to the snow. The splashed snowflakes hung on the two furs on the top of its head, like wearing a small white hat.Shaking his head to shake off the snowflakes, he looked up at Chen Ziqi who had a smirk on his face, squinted his eyes, and instantly transformed into a human form, throwing Chen Ziqi down on the snow.

"Ah!" Chen Ziqi was startled, and when he came back to his senses, he was already lying on his back in the snow.Fortunately, he was wearing a thick cloak with a hat attached to it, so he didn't pour the snow down his neck.

Dan Yi pressed on him, the gorgeous red clothes were as dazzling as a cluster of exuberant flames in the ice and snow.The exquisite phoenix-tailed eyes become extremely clear against the snowy light, and the slightly raised lines seem to be raised on the heart, making people want to move.

Chen Ziqi raised his hand, caressed the end of his beautiful eyes, and gently traced it with one finger, "You look so good-looking." Only his own shadow was reflected in his obsidian-like dark and deep eyes, which made his heart suddenly shudder. A sense of satisfaction arises.If he hadn't met him early, he might never have gotten this beautiful and powerful phoenix.

The cool fingertips caressed his face, which brought a slight itch, and Dan Yi couldn't help feeling a little proud when he looked at Chen Ziqi, who was obsessed with his eyes.Being admired by his partner for his appearance is the most gratifying thing for a male bird. He slowly leaned over and kissed those moist soft lips.

The scorching kiss dispelled all the wind and cold, and the snow was still falling. A small warm space was propped up between the two of them, warming up Chen Ziqi who was afraid of the cold.

Of course, this is actually just a temporary illusion, and you can't lie in the snow for too long.After arguing for a while, Dan Yi pulled him up, patted the snow off his body, and walked into the depths of the palace hand in hand.

During these few days when Emperor Tiande was in a state of desperation, the two of them, who had nothing to do, took a tour of the front palace and went to see the national teacher in Taizhen Palace on the way.

On New Year's Eve, Chen Ziqi was asked to follow Emperor Tiande, wearing a prince's dress with silver dragon coiled silk, and climbed up to Zhanghuatai step by step.

The ice and snow on Zhanghuatai had been cleared long ago, revealing the dark lines on the ground.National Master Lan Xiang was wearing a blue floor-length robe, the long hem of which was spread out on the ground, and the pattern of peacock feathers could be seen faintly reflected in the sunlight.

The fairy-like old man, wearing such fancy clothes, still looks full of fairy spirit, which is awe-inspiring.

Chen Ziqi remembered the way the national teacher showed off his new clothes to him in Taizhen Palace two days ago, and he couldn't feel awe.

"This was sent by Shan Yu, who said it was made by Jiang Xue, doesn't it look good?" The robe hanging on the hanger shone brightly under the candlelight, looking gorgeous and extravagant.

"It's called the old peacock spreading its tail." Dan Yi said expressionlessly.

The old peacock opened its tail and pretended to be affectionate.

Looking at the gorgeously dressed old peacock in the center of Zhang Huatai, Chen Ziqi repeated these words in his head, so that he couldn't be serious at all.

After the complicated ceremony, the emperor stepped forward to worship the gods.All civil and military officials stood under Zhang Huatai, waiting for the miracle to appear.

"Heaven and earth are mysterious and yellow, gods bless the great chapter, one kowtow three times, blessing the emperor."

Lan Xiang's old voice echoed on Zhang Huatai, with a sense of desolation and solemnity.The lead cloud was densely covered, and heavy snow fell one after another. After a while, a thin layer of snow condensed on Zhang Huatai, and also dyed the bright yellow dragon robe of Emperor Tiande with frost.The wind whizzed past the high platform, without bringing any light or miracles, only the cry of the north wind, like the sighs of an old man, or the screaming and neighing of mules and horses, and no one was laughing at anyone.

Nothing happened, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

The little red bird poked its head out from Chen Ziqi's skirt, held a snowflake floating in front of its mouth with its mouth open, and held it up to Chen Ziqi as if offering a treasure.

Chen Ziqi rolled up his sleeves as a gesture of salute, bowed his head and kissed the little sharp mouth.The god is still playing with the snow in his arms, so it's no wonder a miracle can happen.

At the end of the sacrifice to heaven, Emperor Tiande looked at Chen Ziqi thoughtfully. From this point of view, Lao Qi is not the chosen one, and it seems that he will bring Chen Zimu to try next year.

After eating the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, Chen Ziqi bid farewell and left, and Emperor Tiande didn't stop him, but the 10 taels of silver that he said earlier was gone again.

"The national treasury is tight, how can I give you 10 taels? People in Jianghu talk about loyalty. With your intelligence, you will definitely be able to find a way."

It is Emperor Tiande's consistent style to let the oxen pull the cart without giving the oxen grass.Chen Ziqi curled his lips, flung his sleeves and left.

On the return journey in the carriage, Chen Ziqi was still angry after much deliberation, thinking about how to get revenge on Tiande, the turtle's grandson.Dan Yi raised her eyes from the official document and saw the angry Qi Qi, she pursed her lips and smiled lightly, then raised her hand and handed him a buckskin bag.

"What is this?" Chen Ziqi took it over and weighed it, the thing in his hand was heavy, and it felt so hard that he couldn't guess what it was.Opening the deerskin bag, shaking it, a delicately crafted crossbow｜machine fell to the floor of the carriage with a bang.

In the post house, the sixth prince of the Huns who lost his crossbow｜machine was outraged.You know, he only showed this thing to Emperor Tiande, and only Emperor Tiande will think about it. It is self-evident who stole it!

The angry sixth prince ran out of the post house, ready to enter the palace to teach that despicable man a lesson, but was stopped by someone on the street.

"Your Highness, my master invites you to go up and have a cup of tea." Two men with long swords blocked the way out of the sixth prince. They had the aura of a master on their bodies, but they were very polite on their faces. They pointed to the second floor of the restaurant. A man sitting by the window.

The man was wearing an indigo cotton robe, and his appearance was somewhat similar to that of Emperor Tiande, except that his eyebrows and eyes were much softer, and he looked gentle and elegant.The sixth prince squinted his eyes, turned and went upstairs.This is a private room, and there is only one person sitting in the room. When he saw him coming in, he didn't get up, but just smiled gently, "Xia Chen Zijian, the second younger brother of the current emperor."

After receiving Feige's letter from the Young Master of the Golden Knife Gate, Wan Wang Chen Zijian also left for the capital, and has been in the capital for the past few days.

"You said you saw the second child?" In the palace, Emperor Tiande became excited when he heard the news, "Send Jin Wuwei to catch him, and he must be caught on the spot!"

It is a serious crime for the feudal king to leave the fief without authorization.

Just as he was talking, a letter sealed with wax fell from the sky and hit the gate of the main hall of Zichen Palace with a bang.

"Who?" Emperor Tiande was startled, the guard quickly picked up the letter, and looked up at the sky suspiciously, there was nothing but a few birds in the sky.On the envelope was written a few domineering and arrogant words, "The Emperor's Personal Confidence——Dan Yi".
