Xiaoyanzi said hesitantly, earning speechless looks from the three men.

Xia Yuhe took a closer look, and after calming down, she just wanted to say that this girl was so eccentric and clever, and her actions were always unexpected, which was really amazing. They didn't want to say anything more.

Ziwei reminded him, "Xiaoyanzi, don't forget that Master Ji will check what you drew on the book. Besides, you used the charcoal pencils from Great Britain, which are difficult to erase. I think you are doomed."

Xiaoyanzi, who had been somewhat embarrassed and shy just now, changed her expression drastically when she heard this. Looking at the book that was almost unreadable after being scribbled by herself, she immediately lay on the table and wailed, "Ahhhhhhh, my life is over."

Ziwei and Qing'er looked at each other and burst out laughing. "Xiaoyanzi, let's see how you will be punished after the holidays. This will teach you a lesson for scribbling on your books."

Xia Yuhe was no longer angry. When she thought about the high probability that Xiaoyanzi would be punished by Master Ji during class, her eyes were filled with smiles. This girl should learn her lesson.

Seeing that the other three were waiting to laugh at her, Xiaoyanzi snorted coldly, her eyes rolling around, thinking about how to make up for it.

There were laughter and joy in the study room, and snowflakes were floating outside. Soon, Chengqian Palace became covered with white. The study room was covered with heating, so it was quite warm and it was not cold even if you wore thin clothes.

The winter sky gets dark quickly. After drawing that picture, Little Swallow didn’t want to do her homework anymore. She wanted to change into new clothes.

Xia Yuhe saw that it was almost time, so she took the three little girls to dress up.

Qing'er had originally dressed up to enter the palace, but her hair and clothes were a little messy due to calligraphy practice, so she had the palace maid tidy them up, and then she watched Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei dress up.

An hour later, three lovely little princesses, who looked like they were carefully carved out, stood in front of Xia Yuhe, making her nod repeatedly. The three children were all wearing princess costumes, and looked quite delicate and cute.

Little Swallow has a lively personality. Her clothes are red and pink, and her hair has pink whiskers. Her little face is chubby, and her big eyes blink, making her look very cute.

Ziwei looks weak on the outside, but is strong on the inside. She wears a red and blue Manchu costume with red whiskers on the top of her head, which sways slightly when she walks, making her look even more playful.

Qing'er did not grow up in the palace and her personality is a bit casual, but rules are also ingrained in her bones. She is wearing a light yellow Manchu dress with a blue moustache on her head, which makes her look well-behaved and sensible. Her childish face adds a touch of steadiness.

Xia Yuhe nodded, and was very satisfied with the way these children were dressed. She was wearing a light purple palace robe and had light makeup on her face, which made her look gentle and lovely. Her nails were painted with light red nail polish, which made her fingers look slender and her skin look smooth.

These days, it snowed and the weather got colder. If she hadn't been going to the banquet, Xiaoyanzi really wanted to stay in the house. But when she thought about seeing many friends today, she couldn't wait.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Xia Yuhe took the children out of Chengqian Palace and walked towards the banquet place.

Nanny Wu had prepared cloaks for several masters in advance. When she saw the masters leaving the house, she hurriedly put the cloaks on them.

Little Swallow's is a red cloak with a furry hat hanging at the back. There are two fluffy balls on the rope in front. It looks pretty and cute.

Ziwei's is blue and Qing'er's is yellow. The cloaks are the same style, just in different sizes.

There was a lot of snow accumulated on the ground, and the palace maids and eunuchs had cleared a path in the middle. Xia Yuhe and the other three were supported by the palace maids as they walked towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Tonight is New Year's Eve. The Emperor holds a banquet in the palace and invites all civil and military officials to bring their families to the banquet. The Xiao family and the Liu family are also among the invited guests.

As soon as Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei came out of Chengqian Palace, they saw Yongqi, Erkang, Ertai and Benjamin walking towards them.

"Happy New Year, little swallow. You are so cute today."

Ertai approached Xiaoyanzi with a smile on his face, and when he saw how cute she was, he couldn't help but praise her.

Xiaoyanzi raised her head proudly, the tassels on her head swaying, looking even more playful, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but rise, "Hehe, you're not bad either."

Ertai, Erkang and others were also wearing small cloaks, which gave people a sense of dominance and casualness when they swung the cloaks.

Ertai scratched his head with a chuckle, and touched inside his sleeve, where there was a small box containing the gift he wanted to give to Xiaoyanzi.

But the timing was not right now, he wanted to wait until the fireworks were set off in the evening before giving it to her.

After Erkang walked up to Ziwei and exchanged a few words with her, the group went towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Because of the festival, the entire palace was filled with joy, with red lanterns hung everywhere. The snow-covered palace, because of the embellishment of these red lanterns, gave people a feeling of being in a fairy tale world.

I saw that the red walls and white tiles of the palace were covered with snow, but red lanterns were hung under the eaves, swaying gently in the cold wind. The winter plum blossoms in the imperial garden were proudly blooming their beauty, and the fragrance was refreshing.

From time to time, the laughter of children could be heard in the imperial garden. The only adult, Xia Yuhe, always watched them playing and laughing with a smile.

Maybe it was because the snow on the roadside was too thick, or maybe it was because the snow covering the ground looked too white and attractive. Anyway, someone couldn't help it.

He stretched out his little hand, grabbed a handful of food on the ground, rolled it into a ball, and then threw it directly at Ertai who was behind him.

Ertai was caught off guard and was about to get angry, but then he saw the little girl who hit him was tilting her head and looking at him with a smile. Ertai curled the corners of his lips slightly and couldn't help but scoop up a handful of snow and threw it in the direction of Xiaoyanzi.

But the snowflakes were not rolled into a ball, and they were scattered by the wind.

Seeing this, Xiaoyanzi, who had been thinking of avoiding it, couldn't help but burst out laughing, mocking Ertai for being so stupid.

Ertai was not angry even though he was ridiculed. He continued to tease her with snowflakes on the ground, which in turn resulted in a ruthless snowball attack from the other party.

Seeing the two of them having a snowball fight without saying a word, Yongqi couldn't help it, so he grabbed a ball of snow and threw it at Benjamin first.

Benjamin was watching Xiaoyanzi and Ertai playing games when he was suddenly hit in the face. The cold touch made him shiver. He quickly dodged and shouted that Yongqi had won unfairly and launched a sneak attack.

Yongqi chuckled, then made another snowball and threw it at Erkang.

Erkang couldn't help but join in, and even imitated Ertai, secretly making snowflakes fly towards Ziwei, wanting her to join in the snowball fight.

Ziwei didn't want to play snowball fight. She thought she was dressed up nicely and it would be too uncomfortable if she got sweaty, so she refused.

But she could reject Erkang, but she couldn't reject Xiaoyanzi.

The girl found it boring that Ertai never really fought with her, so she made a few snowballs and threw them at Erkang, Yongqi Benjamin, Ziwei and Qing'er respectively.

Except Yuhe's mother and the palace maids and eunuchs, she provoked everyone.

At the same time, it also aroused public anger.

"Okay, Xiaoyanzi, do you want to challenge all of us?"

Yongqi rolled a huge snowball and smiled sinisterly, weighing it in his hand from time to time, as if he was going to throw it at Xiaoyanzi at the next moment.

Xiaoyanzi was scared at this time. She quickly pulled Ziwei and Qing'er and said, "I am not alone. Ziwei, Qing'er, you have to help me. Let's go together."

Ziwei and Qing'er looked at each other helplessly, and nodded, "Okay, okay, let's go together."

Xia Yuhe walked a little further away with a group of palace maids and eunuchs. It was still early and this place was at the back of the Imperial Garden, so they thought no one would come here, so they let the children play snowball fights for a while.

"Hahaha, come on, Xiaoyanzi, Ziwei, Qing'er, the three of you are against the four of us, don't say we are bullying you."

Yongqi rubbed his hands, which were cold and red from being frozen by the snow, and chuckled.

"I'm going to join Xiaoyanzi's team."

"I'm going to join Xiaoyanzi's team."

"I'm going to join Xiaoyanzi's team."
