A life of two souls traveling through time

In a remote corner of the Lang Kingdom's harem, the Snow Dance God, dressed in snow-white with an exquisite silver hairpin on her head, was wandering there mysteriously.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

A pretty girl's voice suddenly sounded. Xuewu turned around and saw a bright girl carrying a bamboo basket and walking towards her quickly. When they got closer, they were both amazed by each other's appearance.

In Xuewu's eyes, although this girl looked only about fourteen or fifteen years old, she already had a stunningly beautiful face, with clear eyes, lips like red clouds, and a rosy face, just like a crabapple bud about to bloom. Even a woman like her would be moved when she saw her, let alone a man.

The girl was also attracted by the white-skinned, cold and elegant white-haired beauty in front of her, and she completely forgot about her attitude of coming to accuse someone.

"I've heard that my eldest brother has just got a white-haired beauty. Her skin is whiter than snow, her face is cold and beautiful, her figure is slender, her body seems to have no bones, and she is good at dancing the Snow Crane Dance. I guess it's you?" The girl looked at the white-haired beauty in front of her infatuatedly and said with a sweet smile.

"I have also heard that your majesty has a younger sister who is so beautiful that she can overwhelm the whole country and shame the moon and flowers at a young age. Today, it seems to be true." Xuewu said, and bowed slightly to the girl in front of her: "Xuewu greets Princess Luoying."

The girl was delighted to see the well-behaved white-haired beauty in front of her. When she was about to reach out to pull her, she suddenly remembered that her brother Lixu was banished from the city because of her, her eldest brother also neglected state affairs because of her, and now her nephew, the crown prince, was also confined because of her... Thinking of this, the more the girl looked at her, the more she felt that she was a witch who brought disaster to the country and the people.

"You are a favorite concubine in the harem. What are you doing outside the cold palace alone? You must be doing something shameful!"

The girl's face changed as quickly as the weather in June. She was smiling sweetly just now, but in the blink of an eye, her brows were furrowed, and she looked as if she wanted to eat someone.

"Princess, you misunderstood. Xuewu was admiring the flowers in the garden when she suddenly saw a snow-white kitten. Xuewu thought the white cat was so adorable that she chased it all the way here, but the cat disappeared and I got lost here." Although Xuewu was a little stunned by the girl's sudden anger, she bowed to her calmly after she reacted and explained patiently.

"Is everything you said true?" The girl still frowned and tilted her head to look at Xuewu, showing her innocence.

"Xuewu dare not hide anything from the princess." Looking at the beautiful, bright, yet innocent girl in front of her, Xuewu was envious from the bottom of her heart. Born in a humble family, she had to walk on thin ice since she was a child in order to survive. She lowered her head and read people's faces, and never dared to reveal her thoughts in front of others easily.

"Hmph, I don't think you dare!" The girl Luoying raised her head proudly and stopped looking at Xuewu. She was about to continue walking forward with the bamboo basket in her hand.

"Where are you going, Princess? What's in the basket?" The girl passed by her. Xuewu glanced at the bamboo basket in her hand and asked with a curious smile. For some reason, she felt more relaxed than ever facing this innocent and simple Princess Luoying. Even though she glared at her, she still thought she was very cute.

"It's not your place as a mere concubine to interfere in the affairs of this princess. You should go back to your harem!" Xuewu's curiosity angered Luoying again. She turned around, glared at him angrily, and left quickly.

Xuewu couldn't help but smile as she looked at the pretty figure going away, but the smile was fleeting. Then her face turned cold, and a hint of sadness seeped into her beautiful almond eyes. Princess Luoying grew up with the Queen Mother. Although the Queen Mother died young, she was pampered by her father and brothers since she was a child. She should have continued to be protected and lived a carefree life. What a pity.

"Your Highness, why are you here again?"

When Luoying came to the door of the cold palace carrying a bamboo basket, the little guard there saw the delicate pink figure from afar and his heart began to beat rapidly. But how could he dare to covet the princess who was so high and mighty? When the pink figure appeared in front of him, he hurriedly lowered his head and asked worriedly.

The princess always liked to stay in her own palace and seldom appeared in public. But once she came out, she liked to come to this desolate cold palace to deliver cakes to the concubines who had fallen out of favor there, which puzzled him very much. When his superiors learned about it, they just said that His Majesty doted on the princess and she could do whatever she wanted.

"What do you, a mere guard, have to say? My brother the emperor didn't forbid me to come to the cold palace, so why can't I come?" On the way here, Luoying was already furious because of Concubine Xue. But this little guard had no foresight and was asking for trouble. Luoying was irritated by the guard's words and she kept pestering him like a kitten with its fur standing on end.

"The cold palace is a filthy and dark place, and I am worried that Her Royal Highness the Princess will be unlucky..." The guards saw the princess act so aggressively and domineering for the first time, and they were so scared that they knelt down hurriedly and explained tremblingly.

"There are only some poor women in there. Where did their filth come from? What bad luck did they have? Open the door!" Without waiting for the guard to finish speaking, Luoying put her hands on her slender waist and shouted impatiently with a frown. Her beautiful face turned particularly red because of anger.

The guards dared not slack off at this moment, and hurriedly and nervously took out the key to open the side door of the cold palace. Luoying went in angrily carrying the bamboo basket. Seeing that the princess was very angry today, the guards did not dare to approach her like last time, and could only follow her from a distance.

The cold palace is not big but it is in a mess. The sounds of ghosts crying and the sorrow of the sky make people feel depressed. People who have been locked up there for a long time either become crazy and numb or live in constant fear.

Luoying had been to this cold palace several times, so the women imprisoned here happily surrounded her when they saw her, looking expectantly into the bamboo basket.

"Today I have learned how to make a new dish called rose cake. Please try it." Seeing these poor and destitute women, Luoying finally showed her usual smile. She opened the lid of the bamboo basket and placed it in front of the women. The basket was filled with cakes of different shapes and sizes, but exuding the fragrance of roses.

"Hehe, it looks a little ugly, but it tastes refreshing and delicious, and it smells fragrant." Seeing the two women beside him cautiously showing disgusted expressions, Luoying did not get angry but scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled.

The guard looked at the princess who was surrounded by a group of crazy women in messy clothes from afar, and a sincere smile appeared on his pretty and reserved face.

Soon, all the cakes in the bamboo basket were snatched away. Luoying was naturally very happy to see how satisfied they were after eating the cakes. They lived alone in this cold palace that was like a prison, and she was powerless to do anything but give them some brief happiness occasionally.

"Here, I left one for you."

After the guards sent Luoying out of the cold palace, she suddenly stretched out a soft hand in front of him, and in her tender pink palm appeared a piece of rose cake with a lingering fragrance.

"Thank you, Princess!" The guard happily took the cake as carefully as before, took two steps back and saluted Luoying.

Luoying smiled sweetly at the guard, then skipped away with the empty basket. However, she didn't know that her smile took the guard a long time to recover.
