Chapter 284 Tomorrow we will go to Lingshan and visit Xiaobai
Half a month passed by quickly, like a dream.
The winter scenery of West Street looks even more desolate under the decoration of white snow, like a simple and elegant ink painting. However, the desolation in this silence is quietly changed by an unexpected warmth.
In the sky, heavy snow fluttered down like thousands of feathers falling from heaven.
On both sides of the street, the eaves were covered with crystal clear icicles, sparkling with cold light.
Each snowflake is like a little elf, dancing with its light body, bringing a touch of mystery to the world.
However, in this icy and snowy land, West Street is filled with a unique atmosphere.
Half a month ago, this place was still a place of grief and sorrow. The faces of the victims were filled with sorrow. Hunger and cold were like invisible shackles that tightly bound their hearts.
But now, these clouds of sorrow have been dispelled by the warm sunshine like the winter morning mist, and people's faces are filled with gratitude to Princess Zhaoyang.
Once, they regretted being taken advantage of by others half a month ago and causing a scene at the palace gate.
Now, they are glad that Princess Zhaoyang did not hold a grudge against them but instead gave them selfless help. This emotional change makes people feel gratified and also makes people see the dawn of hope.
"Princess Zhaoyang is such a beautiful and kind person!" Such praise quickly spread throughout West Street and the entire imperial city.
People spread Princess Zhaoyang's good deeds by word of mouth to every corner.
The victims gathered around the porridge shed, holding bowls of steaming porridge in their hands, tears in their eyes.
It was not just gratitude, but also infinite hope for future life. They once suffered from hunger and poverty, but now, with the help of Princess Zhaoyang, they finally saw a glimmer of hope.
In the past half month, West Street seemed to have experienced a rebirth.
The attitude of the victims has changed dramatically, from initial despair and helplessness to full of confidence today.
Time flies, and two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Although the sky of Chu State has lost its leaden gray color of winter, it still carries a bit of chilliness, as if this is nature's unique attachment to this land, and it is unwilling to easily hand over its dominance to the gentleness of spring.
Chu Zixi stood quietly in front of the window, a faint smile on her beautiful face, her eyes staring into the distance through the thin clouds.
She sighed softly, "Oh! The State of Chu is covered with ice and snow all year round. It's almost May now, and it's still so cold." She rubbed her arms gently, trying to dispel the cold.
Beside, Jun Feimo stood silently, his figure looking particularly tall in the faint sunlight.
From the moment they set foot in Chu State, they were forced to stay there because of a sudden heavy snow.
It was originally intended to be a short stay, but because of the heavy snow, it was extended to several months.
Occasionally, a trace of imperceptible annoyance would flash across his brows, but more often than not, he cared for Chu Zixi with meticulous care and doting.
At this moment, he gently hugged Chu Zixi from behind, rested his chin on her neck, and whispered: "Xier, after we get engaged on the fifteenth of next month, we will immediately set off back to Dongyang Country to hold the wedding." His voice was low and magnetic.
Upon hearing this, Chu Zixi slowly turned around, hugged him tightly with both hands, with a warm light flashing in her eyes.
She replied softly, "Well, I miss my grandparents, too."
Jun Feimo gently lifted her chin, lowered his head, and kissed her tenderly on the lips, as gently as a light dragonfly skimming over the water.
This action made Chu Zixi's heart beat faster and her cheeks flushed.
"Jun Feimo, what should I do if your mother still disagrees with me marrying you after we return to Dongyang Kingdom?" Chu Zixi raised her eyebrows.
Jun Feimo smiled and comforted her, "Xi'er, don't worry, you are marrying into Dongyang as a princess of Chu, and a friendly alliance will be formed between the two countries. Even if my mother objects, it cannot change this fact. Moreover, I have arranged for someone to carry a generous betrothal gift to the Chu State."
Hearing this, Chu Zixi felt a little relieved, but still a little worried, and continued: "Jun Feimo, I have made it clear that if your mother wants to cause trouble for me, I will definitely not be polite!"
Jun Feimo scratched her nose lovingly and replied softly, "No matter what happens, I will stand firmly by your side and support you."
After hearing his words, Chu Zixi felt extremely warm and relieved.
She said proudly: "That's good! I hope you can do what you say!"
"By the way, we are going to Lingshan tomorrow. Xiaobai clearly said that he could break through to the second level of the mirror realm in a month, but now two months have passed and there is still no progress. Let's go and take a look tomorrow."
"it is good!"
