The concubine is a man, and the illegitimate son of a divine physician has a spatial ability.

Ah Tian seemed to have thought of something and quickly asked, "It seems that the eldest princess and His Highness the Crown Prince are from the same mother, and she is His Highness the Crown Prince's younger sister. I wonder if His Highness the Crown Prince has helped the princess. Does the Sixth Miss have any contact with His Highness the Crown Prince? Does she know about this?"

Yin Zijing put down her embroidery, rubbed her sore eyes, and smiled, saying, "I haven't been in contact with His Highness the Crown Prince for a month. His Majesty sent His Highness to the Northwest, and he hasn't returned yet. His Highness should not know about this."

Granny Zhou quickly chimed in, "Hey~ Even if His Highness the Crown Prince knew, it wouldn't matter. He can't control the Princess's residence, let alone the inner quarters."

His Majesty is very sensitive about this matter. For His Highness the Crown Prince to plead for him now is like walking into the line of fire. Because His Majesty likes men, His Majesty already doesn't like the Crown Prince very much. If this matter is brought up again, His Highness the Crown Prince will be in an even worse situation..."

While the group was chatting, Ruhe went outside, took a hot water bottle, and placed it in Yin Zijin's arms. Ruhe stamped her foot, took a deep breath, and said, "It's so cold outside! Miss, hold this hot water bottle to warm yourself up."

Yin Zijin asked with some curiosity and excitement, "Has the snow stopped? Let's go out and play! It's been so long since I've seen such heavy snow."

Ruhe nodded and said, "Miss, the snow has stopped for now."

As long as Yin Zijin obediently follows instructions, stops thinking about anything related to men, and focuses on learning the knowledge and skills that women should master, then Granny Zhou will naturally dote on her with great joy.

At this moment, Granny Zhou, with a kind and amiable smile on her face, said softly, "It's been a long time since I've seen you in such high spirits, Miss. I really can't bear to spoil your good mood. Alright, alright! Let's go out for a stroll together then."

As she spoke, Granny Zhou walked with light and steady steps, as if she had suddenly become more than ten years younger. She continued with a sigh, "Being around with you energetic young people makes even this old woman feel younger and more vibrant. The longer I stay in Fu'an Temple, the more I find the rigid rules and serious atmosphere of inner quarters incredibly dull and tedious. The outside world is so much wider, more expansive, and freer..."

Granny Zhou helped Yin Zijing slowly get off the bed, afraid that she might slip up. Then, Granny Zhou carefully dressed Yin Zijing in layer after layer of thick cotton clothes, as if to keep out all the cold.

Then, she picked up the pink, fluffy fox fur hooded cloak and gently draped it over Yin Zijing's shoulders, carefully adjusting every corner to ensure that not a single wisp of cold wind could get in.

Next, Granny Zhou placed the hood of the cloak on Yin Zijing's head, adjusting the angle to better cover her ears and cheeks. After doing this, Granny Zhou took out a pair of equally thick sleeves and gently put them on Yin Zijing's slender arms, providing her with all-around warmth and protection.

At this moment, Yin Zijin was wrapped up tightly, like a cute cotton ball, exuding endless warmth and care, playful and adorable.

Granny Zhou and the others put on some clothes for themselves before going outside with Yin Zijing. Yin Zijing went outside, stood in the snow, and breathed in the fresh air freely.

Just then, Yin Zijing looked at A-Tian not far ahead, her bright eyes darting around as if she had come up with an idea. She grabbed a handful of snow from the ground and threw it at A-Tian.

Ah Tian laughed and said, "Alright! If Sixth Miss hits me, then don't blame me..."

Then she grabbed a handful of snow, but seemed to miss, and most of it hit Ruhe. Ruhe put her hands on her hips and said, "Okay! Atian..." Then she grabbed some snow from the ground and threw it at Atian. For some reason, Zhou Mama also joined in.

On a vast, white, and utterly silent expanse, the wonders of nature made the place seem even more secluded. Only the sounds of free and joyful laughter echoed through the air, and the playful antics of Yin Zijin and her friends created a natural picture of snow play.

Because Yin Zijing was wearing a thin gold chain, everyone was careful around her. However, when Yin Zijing was walking quickly, her bound feet were still a little unsteady due to the restriction of the thin gold chain. Just like that, while Yin Zijing was playing and lost in the moment, her bound feet slipped and she was about to fall on the snow.

But unexpectedly, Yin Zijing rolled into a warm, broad, firm embrace. Smelling the familiar scent, Yin Zijing peeked her head out from the warm embrace, a little uncertain, and looked at the person looming before her. She then said softly with joy, "Your Highness, you're back!"

Sheng Yixuan picked up Yin Zijing and nodded gently, a rare occurrence for him. "Yes, I'm back. It's so cold, don't catch a cold. I could hear your laughter from far away. It's been so long. Let's go inside and talk..."

Sheng Yixuan watched Yin Zijin grow up. There's a saying: "Childhood sweethearts in an arranged marriage. Eight years of getting along is enough for the two to become very close and their feelings to grow stronger."

Sheng Yixuan carried Yin Zijin into the house, and Zhou Mama and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Because Yin Zijin was not well, they were afraid that she would get cold.

Sheng Yixuan placed Yin Zijing on the bed, removed her three-inch slippers, and felt her cold, bound feet. He warmed them in his arms and said with concern, "Your feet are all red from the cold..."

Yin Zijing couldn't stand Sheng Yixuan's gentleness, so she quickly changed the subject and asked, "Your Highness, are you aware that the Princess has encountered some mishaps..."

Yin Zijing then told Sheng Yixuan the whole story.

Sheng Yixuan said, "I haven't returned to the palace to report to my father yet. I was passing by outside the city and wanted to come and see you first. This is the first time I've heard of this."

Family ties within the palace are weak, and my relationship with my sisters is also just so-so. My mother usually doesn't talk to me about these kinds of things.

"I found out too late, and it's too late to go back to the palace now. I need to protect myself first. I can only investigate secretly to see if there's anything hidden. After all, the princess has been childless for many years, so why is she going to become a nun this year? And she's even involved with the Imperial Observatory..." Sheng Yixuan said, taking the hot water bottle from Ruhe's hand and placing it in Yin Zijin's hand.

Sheng Yixuan had to return to the palace to report, so he didn't stay at Qingya for long before leaving.

The next morning, Yin Zijing's forehead was covered in a fine layer of cold sweat, and her underwear was stained bright red. Zhou Mama sensed something was wrong. Unable to wake Yin Zijing, she quickly lifted the blanket and saw the bright red underwear. Zhou Mama slapped her thigh and excitedly exclaimed, "Miss has started her period! Miss has finally started her period! Ruhe, go get the menstrual pad!"
