On the edge of the cliff, the wind and snow are still there.
Luo Qingzhou couldn't feel the coldness of the wind and snow, he only felt the fire burning in his body.
A moment of confusion.
In his mind, the scene when he saw her for the first time emerged.
Dressed in green clothes, he is as cold and arrogant as snow bamboo, with an unparalleled sword in his eyes.
Who would have thought that in just a few months, the relationship between the two would suddenly become what it is now.
Thinking about it now, it feels like a dream.
"Uncle Master..."
Seeing her reserved and slightly shy look, with her sincere and bold words echoing in his ears, his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but stretch out his arms, wanting to hold her in his arms.
However, this is not her cave, nor is it a no-man's land.
This is Lingxiao Sect.
She is the peak master of Lingxiao Sect's Sword Peak, and he is her junior.
So, he hesitated and backed down.
The cold wind blew by, bringing with it a breath of air.
Linghu Qingzhu came back to his senses, his face regained its cold expression, took a step back, turned sideways, and looked at the wind and snow outside the cliff.
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head slightly and stood respectfully behind her.
Su Feng walked over from the side path, glanced at the two of them, and said respectfully: "Master, the sect master asked you to go to the main hall and said that he has something to discuss with you."
When Linghu Qingzhu heard this, he frowned slightly, nodded, turned and left, without taking another look at the person behind him.
Luo Qingzhou said: "Sister Su Feng, happy New Year!"
Su Feng smiled and said: "Junior Brother Chu, Happy New Year. I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you."
As he spoke, he waved his hand with a smile and followed Linghu Qingzhu.
The master and apprentice soon disappeared into the wind and snow in the distance.
Luo Qingzhou stood by the cliff for a while before walking down the back mountain.
He wanted to go back and discuss it with the second lady. By the way, he would go to Lingchan Moon Palace to see someone.
The tone of the ghost in the hall before and the princess's demeanor when she wrote him the letter gave him a very familiar feeling.
If it was really her, that would be terrible.
It wasn't the danger that was terrifying, but the horror that shocked and puzzled him.
The steps going down the mountain were covered with snow.
While he was thinking about things, he walked down the mountain in a hurry.
When we arrived at the foot of the mountain, the messy footprints on the road were almost covered by the heavy snow, but we could still see how many distinguished guests came to the Lingxiao Sect today.
King Duan went back with the result of his rejection. I don't know what the Queen Mother and the Emperor would think, but they certainly wouldn't give up just like that.
In order to take away all the power of the eldest princess, they worked hard and calculated, and finally found such an opportunity, how could they give up so easily.
Just like what the princess said, if he refuses because he has a wife at home, the other party will probably become so angry that he will do even more terrible things.
Moreover, it may not only be the court that will force him.
It was already noon.
The houses on the riverside not far away are filled with smoke and birds.
The wilderness path is covered with thick white snow, and there are occasionally a few sparrow footprints left on it.
In the forest not far away, a hare poked its head out to look for food.
Snowflakes were falling on the river and the smoke was hazy.
A small boat stopped in the middle of the river. A girl in aqua green dress was sitting on the bow of the boat with her bare feet, playing with the river water, staring blankly.
Luo Qingzhou took a look, but went back home without passing.
In the small courtyard of my house, it was as quiet as ever.
Pearl and Xiaodie were warming themselves by the fire in the main room and talking.
Xiaodie was sewing clothes in her hands, while Pearl had a flying knife flipping flexibly on her fingertips.
When Luo Qingzhou opened the door and went in, the flying knife in Zhu'er's hand suddenly fell to the ground.
She stood up hurriedly, her head lowered, her face red and nervous.
Xiaodie said naturally: "Master, where are the red envelopes? They were planning to ask for a red envelope for you during the New Year, and you ran away."
Luo Qingzhou took out the red envelope that the second lady gave her last night and teased her: "Kneel down and kowtow to me, and the red envelope will be given to you."
Xiaodie immediately pouted her lips, rolled her eyes at him dissatisfied, and said, "Huh, I don't want it. I'd rather not have it."
Luo Qingzhou smiled and stuffed the red envelope into her pocket.
Just as he was about to leave, Xiaodie said quickly: "Master, where is Sister Zhuer's? The second lady said this morning that she gave you all the red envelopes last night. Do you want to hide your private money secretly?"
Luo Qingzhou glanced at the little girl next to her and said, "I've already given it to her."
Xiaodie wondered: "When did you give it to me? Why didn't I know this?"
Then he turned around and asked: "Sister Zhu'er, did the master give you a red envelope?"
Pearl lowered her head, blushed, and whispered: "Here, here it is..."
Xiaodie was surprised: "When did you give it to me?"
Pearl's head was almost buried in her bulging chest: "Morning, morning..."
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her and without saying anything else, walked to the door of the room and took off his shoes.
Just as he was about to knock on the door, the door was already opened.
Qiu'er walked out and said with a smile: "Uncle, Miss is reading on the couch."
Luo Qingzhou took out another red envelope and handed it to her, saying, "Qiu'er, Happy New Year."
Qiu'er took the red envelope and said with a smile: "Thank you, uncle. I also wish you a happy new year. May you and the lady be in love and grow old together."
Luo Qingzhou touched her head and entered the room.
Qiu'er closed the door for him, turned around, and saw Zhu'er running out of the main room with a red face, saying: "I'm going to practice throwing swords..."
Xiaodie looked confused and said: "Sister Qiu'er, sister Zhu'er seems to be not right."
Qiu'er glanced outside and said with a smile, "It's okay. It'll be fine in a few days."
In the study, the stove burns and incense burns the birds.
Miss Qin Er was dressed in a plain white dress, her jet-black hair was simply tied with a ribbon, hanging down on one side of her chest. Under the white dress was a pair of slender feet wearing snow-white stockings. She was sitting on the couch at this time. , lowered his head slightly and looked at the books in his hands.
When Luo Qingzhou walked over, she was still looking down at him seriously.
"What are you looking at? So serious?"
Luo Qingzhou sat down next to her, stretched out his hand naturally, put one arm around her soft waist, touched her slender calf a few times with one hand, and then took advantage of the situation to hold her waist. Little feet.
Second Miss Qin turned to look at him and said: "A husband sings, a wife follows, three obediences and four virtues. Daddy gave it to you this morning. Didn't daddy also give you a copy?"
Luo Qingzhou played with her little feet and said with disdain on his face: "What about husbands singing wives' orders, three obediences and four virtues? They are all bad books that oppress women. Weimo, please stop reading these books. In our family, we don't need these rules. How can you How to be happy."
Second Miss Qin looked at him softly and said, "But Weimo feels that serving brother Qingzhou is the happiest thing."
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and kissed her on the mouth, paused, and got down to business: "Wei Mo, there is something I want to tell you, so you should be mentally prepared first."
Second Miss Qin was silent for a moment and said softly: "Brother Qingzhou, isn't it the eldest princess who wants to propose marriage to Chu Feiyang of Lingxiao Sect?"
Luo Qingzhou was stunned when he heard this, and said with surprise on his face: "How do you know?"
Second Miss Qin sighed slightly and said: "Today's team was originally the team for marriage proposal. In addition to some things you and Sister Meijiao said to me before, Weimo naturally guessed it."
Luo Qingzhou stared at the expression on her face for a while, then lowered his head and kissed her mouth, praising: "My wife is so smart and unparalleled in the world."
Miss Qin Er's face was still full of tenderness, without any angry expression, and she said softly: "Brother Qingzhou, you can't refuse, right? That's why you came back to discuss with Wei Mo?"
Luo Qingzhou sighed and told everything that happened in the palace a few days ago. Then he took out the letter that the eldest princess had given him, handed it to her, and said, "I really didn't Law refuses.”
Second Miss Qin looked at the letter in her hand with a complicated look on her face, and murmured: "A drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring..."
Then he looked up at him and said: "Brother Qingzhou, the eldest princess has been very kind to us. She saved you again in the palace this time. Now that we need help, you really can't refuse."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Wei Mo, what should I do? I will definitely not let you be my concubine, don't worry."
Miss Qin Er smiled slightly and said: "Actually, for Wei Mo, being a concubine is nothing. As long as she can stay with brother Qingzhou, even if she is just a little maid, Wei Mo is willing."
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Luo Qingzhou held her in his arms with pity and said: "No matter what, I will never let you be my concubine, and I will never let you suffer any injustice."

Second Miss Qin leaned softly in his arms, was silent for a while, and said, "Sister Meijiao went today. Did Brother Qingzhou talk to her?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "This letter from the eldest princess was given to me by the princess. I used the messenger ultimatum to chat with her for a while."
As he spoke, he took out the summons document and showed her the chat history between the two.
Second Miss Qin lowered her head and after reading quietly, she sighed softly and said: "It seems that the eldest princess really needs brother Qingzhou's help, and she is actually willing to be a concubine... In this case, brother Qingzhou I really can’t refuse. However, it can also be seen that the eldest princess is indeed just a temporary measure and does not really want to marry you. Otherwise, how could she be willing to be a concubine. I estimate that when the matter is settled, she will..."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Die me up?"
Second Miss Qin looked at him and said, "Maybe, because Brother Qingzhou is so good and so good at coaxing people, maybe the eldest princess will suddenly fall in love with him? If the eldest princess discovers that Chu Feiyang is brother Qingzhou again, then maybe I’ll like it even more.”
Luo Qingzhou smiled bitterly and said: "Wei Mo, stop joking, what do you think I should do? Do you agree to fake a marriage with her? But since we have already married, it is real, and it cannot be faked."
Miss Qin Er was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said: "Brother Qingzhou, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and you haven't gone to pay your sister a New Year's greeting yet. Go quickly, my sister will give you a red envelope."
Luo Qingzhou frowned slightly, and when he was about to speak, Miss Qin Er said again: "Go quickly, at least greet your sister, and give Bai Ling and Xia Chan a red envelope. As for this matter, Wei Mo will think about it carefully. I’ll give my reply to Brother Qingzhou tomorrow, okay?”
Luo Qingzhou couldn't help but sigh and said: "Okay."
He put on a loose Confucian robe and left the room. Under Qiu'er's service, he put on his shoes and then went out with an umbrella.
Next door is Lingchan Moon Palace.
When he arrived at the entrance of Lingchan Moon Palace, the scene that happened in the Lingxiao Sect's hall once again appeared in his mind.
"Not always!"
"snort!"
The tone and expression, now that I think about it, still feel very familiar.
When he was guessing at the door, a clear and sweet song suddenly came from the small courtyard: "I am a little donkey. He never rides it. One day he rode it to the market on a whim..."
Luo Qingzhou's expression moved slightly and he listened carefully.
After she finished singing, she heard another sigh: "Hey, lonely as snow..."
"Winter! Winter! Winter!"
Luo Qingzhou stepped forward and knocked on the door.
A clear and questioning voice immediately came from the courtyard: "Who! Little Bailing is here, bad guys are trespassing, shoot without mercy!"
Luo Qingzhou said: "Me."
Immediately, a pair of footsteps ran over.
"Squeak..."
The courtyard door opens.
Bai Ling was dressed in a pink skirt and stood pretty in the door, with her arms folded across her chest and her little mouth pouting. She looked at him angrily and said, "It turns out to be a bad uncle. Huh, it's already noon on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Have you forgotten to come and wish my lady a happy New Year, or do you just don’t want to come?”
Luo Qingzhou stared at her eyes for a while and said, "I went out for something this morning and just came back. By the way, Bai Ling, have you been out this morning?"
Bai Ling pursed her lips and snorted, "Why do I have to tell you!"
After that, he turned around and left angrily.
Luo Qingzhou followed in, stared at her back a few more times, and said, "Bailing, I wish my uncle a happy new year, and I will give you a red envelope."
Bai Ling stopped, turned around and looked at him and said, "What red envelope? I don't want money."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Then what do you want?"
Bai Ling hummed: "It doesn't cost any money anyway!"
Luo Qingzhou stared into her eyes and said: "That uncle gives you a gift. By the way, we have moved here for a few days. Have you been to Lingxiao Sect?"
Bai Ling said: "No, what's wrong?"
Luo Qingzhou stared at her eyes for a few more seconds, then retracted his gaze and said, "It's okay, I'm just asking."
After saying that, he took out the red envelope from his pocket, handed it to her, and said, "I'll give you a jade bracelet. Your skin is so white, it will look good wearing it."
"real?"
Bai Ling's eyes lit up and he immediately took it and opened the red envelope happily.
As a result, the red envelope contained a bunch of copper coins...
Luo Qingzhou said: "Take the money and buy it yourself. You can buy whatever you want."
After saying that, he ignored her and entered the room.
Bailing suddenly pouted his little mouth, stamped his feet and said, "Smelly uncle, you are playing tricks on me again, damn it!"
Luo Qingzhou went directly into Chanchan's room.
However, the room was empty and Chanchan was not in the room.
Luo Qingzhou looked at the other room and did not dare to go there. Just when he was hesitating whether to drag Bai Ling directly into her room and grab her rabbit and "torture it", the door of the eldest lady's room suddenly opened.
Xia Chan appeared at the door, looked at him and said, "Come in, come in."
Luo Qingzhou was startled when he heard this, and suddenly heard the sound of tuning strings coming from the room.
