It was now approaching noon, and a few rays of sunlight penetrated the clouds and swayed towards the snow. Looking from a distance, they reflected a hazy light and shadow.
Jinghua Hairpin and Yelu Daiqin walked side by side, followed closely by Ninke and Sandanfu.
"Riasi, have you been to the snow mountain?" Jinghua Hairpin slowed down even more and looked towards Yelu Daiqin.
Yelu Daiqin turned his head, and the bright yellow gemstone on his forehead shone under the refraction of the sun. The black cloak moved up and down as the horse walked, adding another layer of emperor's nobility to his fair cheeks. .
"No, it's my first time to see it too."
"Really?" A hint of cunning flashed through Jing Huahan's eyes, and he leaned his horse closer to Yelu Daiqin's horse.
"When have I ever lied to you?" Yelu Daiqin raised his lips and smiled, with an imperceptible doting on his face.
Jing Huahan curled his lips, turned his head and looked away, and raised his voice, "That's not necessarily the case! Maybe - you are hiding something from me right now!"
Jinghua Hairpin's sudden words directly aroused Yelu Daiqin's wariness - could it be that the two maids said something to her?
He withdrew his eyes and said nothing. After a moment, he said coldly, "Why do you say that?"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Jing Huahan let out a scream and raised his hand to point not far away.
"Riashi! Look!"
Yelu Daiqin followed the sound and saw a black thing wriggling in the snow not far away. There was a pool of brownish red on the side. It was difficult to see what it was.
The four of them stopped their horses in unison and stared blankly at the black thing. No one said anything.
"How about -" Jing Huahan looked towards Yelu Daiqin, and there was a hint of pleading in his words, "Let's go over and have a look -"
"Second Young Master, that looks like a black bear cub! It must be injured," Ninko said.
When he heard that it was a black bear cub, Jinghua Hairpin couldn't hold back his anger anymore and tugged on Yelu Daiqin's sleeves more eagerly, "Then we have to save it! This place is deserted. If we don't Save it, it will freeze to death when the sun sets!"
Yelu Daiqin raised his chin, squinted his eyes and looked at the black object carefully. After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "No! Although it is a plain, there are so many bushes around it. Perhaps, there are other adults There are black bears around here, so we’d better get out of here quickly.”
"Riasi! How can you be such a cold-blooded person!" Jinghua Hairpin immediately shook off Yelu Daiqin's sleeves, "Okay! You are all afraid, but I am not afraid!"
After saying that, she made a gesture to stand up and dismount.
"What are you doing!" Yelu Daiqin grabbed her wrist, leaned towards her, stared into her eyes and said solemnly: "Don't make trouble, okay? We are on this trip to see the snow-capped mountains. , I'm not here to save some black bear cub! Do you know what a ferocious animal that black bear is? It's very dangerous for you to dismount like this! It's just a bear cub! If it dies, it will die - "
Jinghua Hairpin loved animals very much. When he was seven years old, Emperor Jing built a garden in the palace to raise various animals, just for the princess to watch.
Although she has lost her memory now, her true nature of loving small animals has never been forgotten.
"Just let me go -" Jing Huahan pursed his lips and looked straight at Yelu Daiqin with tears in his eyes, "If I don't save it, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well tonight. ——”
Looking at Jing Huahan's scarlet eyes, Yelu Daiqin couldn't bear to stop him anymore and slowly let go of his hand. "Okay, then I'll accompany you there." After saying that, he grabbed the saddle and tried to dismount.
"Eh -" Jing Huahan grabbed him, "Don't go, so as not to scare it! I can go alone!"
"How can this be done!" Yelu Daiqin changed his face and still wanted to dismount.
"Just listen to me!" Jing Huahan still held his hand and wouldn't let go.
After a moment of stalemate, Yelu Daiqin finally couldn't resist Jinghua's hairpin and let her go alone.
Yelu Daiqin looked at Jinghua Hairpin with a stern face as he walked towards the black object, and said in a loud voice: "You two should be smart and look around. If there is any movement, rush forward immediately!"
Sandanfu and Ninko looked around, "Yes - yes!"
In the big tent, Wen Chan and Qing'e sat by the bonfire and stared blankly at the blazing fireworks going up and down.
"Ever since the day when the princess followed Mr. Asi away, my left eyelid has been twitching non-stop. Do you think anything will happen to the princess?" Qing'e pushed Wen Chan aside with her elbow. whispered.
"What are you talking about!" Wen Chan put a finger on Qing'e's lips, looked outside the tent, frowned at Qing'e, and complained: "Bah, bah, bah! Hurry up! It's unlucky to say that. If so! You should be slapped!"
Qing'e had no choice but to pooh a few times, pouted and moved closer to Wen Chan, "What if we still can't leave tomorrow?"
Wen Chan threw the firewood in his hand into the fire, turned around and looked at Qing'e seriously, "Why do you say that?"
Qing'e pursed her lips and lowered her head timidly, "I'll tell you - you must not be unhappy -"
As soon as she heard this, Wen Chan realized something was wrong. She and Qing'e had grown up together in the princess mansion since childhood, and they knew each other well.
Qing'e is good at everything, but there is only one thing that is not good about her! She has no independent opinion and is still timid. When she heard what she said, Wen Chan was very worried whether she had been tricked by others or something.
