Shaohua is Junqing

The weather was getting colder and colder, and snowflakes began to fall from the sky. At first, there were only sparse and small snowflakes, but gradually the snow became heavier and heavier. In just half a day, a thick layer of snow fell on the roofs, branches... and the earth was covered in silver.

The snow fell silently, and when I noticed it, the earth was already vast.

When the snow stopped, Cao ordered people to start clearing the snow. All the roads and courtyards in the palace needed to be cleared. There were not many people in the palace on weekdays. Because Prince Chen and Princess Shaohua were coming this time, a few more people were transferred to serve. Even so, there were not enough people. It was almost dark, and less than one-third of the snow had been cleared. Cao was very anxious and urged the servants to clean up quickly, because it would be difficult to work after dark.

"Your Highness, are these the only people working in such a large palace?" Siyu asked.

"Yes, there weren't many people in the palace to begin with, and because of our arrival, they transferred a few more people over."

"Your Highness, it's getting dark. Let them all go back and rest. How about calling Lord Su, General Chu, and Lord Xiaobai to help them clean up tomorrow?"

"Okay. Butler Cao." Beitang Mo Ran shouted.

"What does the prince want?" Although it was winter, Butler Cao was sweating profusely because of the anxious task of clearing the snow.

"Let them all stop and go back to rest. We will do it tomorrow. Then the prince, the princess, and all the adults will help us."

"Oh, Your Highness, please forgive me. I will order people to clean up the place as soon as possible. How dare I trouble Your Highness, the Princess, and all the adults?" Prince Chen's words frightened Chief Steward Cao so much that he knelt down.

"What crime has Chief Steward Cao committed? Please stand up. If I say it's okay, then it's okay. Chief Steward Cao doesn't need to blame himself or say anything more. Let them go back and rest."

"Yes, I obey your command. I'll take my leave now."

On the second day, in order to make it easier to sweep the snow, Siyu changed into lighter winter clothes, but she shivered from the cold as soon as she went out.

"Princess, if you are afraid of the cold, then don't go. I will go."

"I said I would help, how can I go back on my word? It won't be so cold when the snow clearing activity starts. All right, let's go."

Although Prince Chen and Siyu volunteered to help sweep the snow, Manager Cao did not dare to assign them any heavy work and just let the six of them clean Hanmei Garden together.

Su Xunxian shoveled the snow with a shovel, "Princess, you really found a good job for us."

"From Lord Su's tone, it seems like he is very reluctant?"

"No, if the princess has any order, I will obey it."

"Just think of it as exercise, there's nothing wrong with it. Don't be angry, Lord Su. I'll make you something delicious after I finish my work."

"What's delicious?" Su Xunxian immediately became excited when he heard the word "eat".

"Keep it a secret for now. I'll give it to you only after you finish the work."

"Okay, I'll do it." He said this and shoveled several shovels of snow very hard.

Beitang Mo Ran couldn't help but laugh when he saw Su Xunxian's appearance.

Bai Ruoshu came to the hot spring palace because of Chu Shengnan. As long as he could see Chu Shengnan, he was willing to do anything. Even when sweeping the snow, he followed her. Although she was a little annoyed, she couldn't chase him away.

Six people cleaned a courtyard and finished quickly. Without waiting for Manager Cao to make further arrangements, they found another courtyard that had not been cleaned and continued sweeping the snow.

It was almost noon, so the six people went to eat and rest for a while, and then continued to sweep the snow in the afternoon. It was different when there were six more people working, and by dusk, the snow in the entire palace had been cleared.

Siyu looked at the cleaned courtyard and the pile of snow nearby, and felt a sense of accomplishment. Because she was cold, Siyu blew on her hands and rubbed them.

Beitang Mo Ran saw this and walked up to her, holding her hand, blowing air on her, rubbing her, and helping her keep warm. Bai Ruo Shu saw this and followed suit, wanting to take this opportunity to touch Chu Sheng Nan's hand, but as a female general, it was not appropriate for a man to hold her hand in front of so many people. She pulled her hand out of his hand several times, but he didn't leave her and just held her hand. She was so annoyed that she had to let him do it.
