Shaohua is Junqing

As autumn goes and winter comes, the cold wind blows.

Siyu was most afraid of the cold, and she rarely went out after winter. The charcoal fire in the house made the temperature slightly higher, but it was still very cold. If there was nothing else to do, Siyu would hold the heater in her hands, put on a quilt, sit on the bed or sit by the stove to keep warm.

One day, Beitang Mo Ran came to see her. When he saw her curled up in the quilt sitting on the bed, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Are you afraid of the cold?"

Siyu was curled up in the quilt, with only her little head sticking out. After hearing what Beitang Mo Ran said, she nodded.

"I have asked the Emperor for permission to take you to the hot spring palace. Soaking in the hot springs will drive away the coldness in your body. You will feel much better."

Siyu was very happy to hear that, "Thank you, Your Highness." She was about to bow, but because she was wrapped in a thick quilt, her body was restricted and she fell forward. Beitang Mo Ran took a step forward and came to the bed to catch her, then helped her sit back on the bed.

"Don't move like this, what if you fall?"

"Thank you, my lord. I'm fine."

"I will go to the palace to see the emperor now, you stay here."

Imperial Palace, Baohe Hall.

"It's so cold, why is your uncle coming to the palace instead of staying at home to rest?"

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask for your permission to go to the hot spring palace to avoid the cold."

"Uncle Huang rarely went there before, why did he want to go this year?"

"I want to take Princess Shaohua with me. She is afraid of the cold, so I thought it would be better for her to soak in the hot springs."

"Uncle, you are very considerate. I have approved it. I have ordered someone to go to the hot spring palace to make arrangements first, and you can go later."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Beitang Mo Ran returned to the palace and told Si Yu the good news, then ordered people to make preparations.

Qingfang Garden.

"Cai Die, it's cold outside, please ask General Chu to come in and warm up."

"Yes, Princess, I will go right away."

"Anan." Bai Ruoshu shouted.

"Why are you here?" Chu Shengnan looked helpless.

"I heard you were going to the hot spring palace?"

"Yes, His Royal Highness Prince Chen is taking the princess to avoid the cold. I am the princess's personal bodyguard, so I must go."

"Then can you please tell His Royal Highness Prince Chen to take me with him, Anan? It's already difficult for us to meet now that you've come to Prince Chen's Mansion. If you go to the Hot Spring Palace, I won't be able to see you anymore. I don't want to be separated from you." Bai Ruoshu begged.

"I'm just the princess's bodyguard. What right do I have to tell the prince who to bring? Forget it."

"Anan."

"Don't bother me."

The two were chatting when Caidie came.

"General Chu, Master Xiaobai is here too."

"Miss Caidie, is there anything the princess can say?" Chu Shengnan asked.

"The princess said it was cold outside and asked General Chu to come in to keep warm."

"Thank you, my lady. I have a martial arts background, so I can stand this cold."

"Yes, I'm here. If Anan is cold, I'll keep her warm."

"Okay, you two continue chatting. I'll go report back to the princess first."

Caidie returned to the house.

"Princess, General Chu said she's not cold. Master Xiaobai is here too. He said he would keep her warm if General Chu was cold."

"Master Xiaobai really cares about General Chu."

"But when I went there, they seemed to be talking about the hot spring palace."

"What did they say?"

"I didn't hear it clearly, but it seems that Lady Xiaobai also wants to go, but General Chu said she can't decide."

"Oh, I see. Caidie, come with me to find the prince."

Siyu and Caidie came to Beitang Mo Ran's study.

"Your Majesty."

"Siyu? Why are you here?"

"I want to ask the prince for something."

"Just tell me what you want, what else are you asking for?"

"This time when we go to the hot spring palace, I want the prince to bring Master Xiaobai with him."

"Are you talking about Bai Ruoshu?"

"Yes, General Chu went, so Lord Xiaobai wanted to go too. Both of them were too embarrassed to mention it to you, and Caidie overheard it by accident, so I came to find you."

"So that's how it is. No problem, you can take him there. Go back and talk to him."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will go back first."

Siyu is so kind, considerate and reasonable, Beitang Mo Ran really likes her more and more.
