Chapter 289 It turns out they weren’t having a snowball fight
"Wow!" Yuan Ruan pointed to the building on the left, "It's magnificent and majestic. Father is really amazing."
The prince chuckled and said, "Ninth sister, you have said this one hundred and twenty-three times."
Yuan Ruan looked at the prince in surprise: "Ah? Really?"
The prince laughed again, his voice gentle: "You have asked this question 'really?' ninety-two times."
Yuan Ruan was shocked and said to the system: [Tong'er, my nephew has such a good memory? He cares about me so much? Did I really say it 123 times? There are still 92 times left.]
The system is a little jealous: [Yes. Ah Ruan, is there anything you can't remember? I still remember Ah Ruan calling me Tong'er 5323 times. I remember it more than my nephew.]
Yuan Ruan's mouth twitched. What a strange desire for victory and defeat the system has!
But she still cooperated: [Tong'er is also amazing! So amazing! ]
The prince was almost amused by Yuanruan's coaxing voice, even though he was clearly still a baby who needed care.
He wrapped Yuan Ruan more tightly in a loving manner, looked at Yuan Ruan's raised head, and said, "Where do you want to see today, Jiuer?"
Yuan Ruan: "Read the rest...finish it all!"
The prince smiled gently and said, "No, it's snowing today. If you stay outside the palace for too long, you will get sick. As usual, you have to go back to the palace after visiting a place."
Yuan Ruan paused and said, "Okay. Then let's go to the Imperial College, the West Palace."
System: [Aruan, don't you want to read Meta-science? ]
Yuan Ruan: [The Yuan School has been completed and a female student has enrolled. I don’t want to bring my eldest nephew in. I’m worried that he might offend others.]
The prince was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: ...the situation is almost the same the other way around.
…
The prince carried Yuan Ruan inside. Not long after walking, he suddenly heard a cheerful voice coming from the left corner of the wall.
Yuan Ruan looked carefully and saw that many people were playing snowball fights with each other.
The white snow was scattered in the air. Occasionally, someone fell in the snow. Immediately, many people rushed forward to cover him with the snow and rubbed their hands with each other.
Yuan Ruan's eyes lit up.
No Southerner can resist snow and snowball fights, even those who have participated in them several times.
Yuan Ruan pulled the prince and kept pointing in that direction: "Brother Prince, let's play snowball fights."
The prince responded.
He looked at the clothes of the people opposite him for a while, then handed over the jade crown, jewelry and other items that represented his status to the eunuch who was accompanying him, and then strode forward with Yuanruan in his arms.
When he came to the crowd, the prince saw Yuan Ruan eager to try, so he immediately pinched a snowball and put it in Yuan Ruan's little hand. Yuan Ruan was so happy that he held the snowball back and forth with his two little hands, and then the snowball fell directly to the ground with a "pop".
Prince: ...
Yuanruan: ...
The maid in plain clothes who was in charge of serving Yuanruan rolled a series of small snowballs and passed them over to her with her experience.
Yuan Ruan took the small snowballs and threw a few towards the side where there were fewer people.
But to Yuan Ruan's surprise, the snowballs she threw were all ignored. In other words, no matter whether it was her or the prince who threw the snowballs, someone would come over and take a look, but no one would respond.
Yuan Ruan was a little confused: [Tong'er, what's going on? Are you not willing to play with children... and are you xenophobic? ]
System: [Oh yeah... let me see. Ah, Ah Ruan, I... I really didn't expect this.]
Yuanruan: [What?]
System: [They are not playing a snowball game. ]
Yuan Ruan looked confused and pointed at the snowball that was still flying in the air: [Tell me this is not playing snowballs? What are you playing? ]
System: [Aruan, it's like this, this group of people are not playing snowballs for fun. They are playing to keep warm.]
Yuan Ruan and the prince both showed confused expressions. Playing snowballs to keep warm?
The system continued: [Really. After they knew about the imperial examination system, the common people students who came to the capital from various counties to study were squeezed out and wanted to go back. Unexpectedly, after hearing that your brother was going to open a common people official school, they were so excited that they were reluctant to go home, fearing that it would be too late to enter the common people's imperial school.]
The system continued: [Because they don't have much money, except for basic food, they dare not buy firewood or coats, and even dare to stay in the worst big shops. The big shops don't burn firewood for heating during the day, it's very cold, so they make appointments to play snowballs during the day, on the one hand to exercise their bodies, on the other hand to rub snow to warm their hands. And Ah Ruan, you see a lot of people buried in the snow, being rubbed by several people, they are not playing, some people are frozen stiff lying on the ground, these people are rubbing snow for others, want to warm others. ]
The prince was shocked:!!!
If it weren't for the system, he really wouldn't know that the civilian students who came here to study had such a hard life. No wonder he took off the jewelry and other items that represented his status, and no one came to pay attention to them.
Yuan Ruan felt distressed when he heard the first part, and was stunned when he heard the second part: [Tong'er, what did you say? They rubbed their hands with snow to warm their limbs?]
System: [Yes.]
Yuanruan spoke very quickly: [Tong'er, help me check it out. I remember watching a TV show or a popular science program that said that if it's too cold, people can't rub their limbs with snow, because it will cause permanent frostbite and may even cause infection and death!]
Prince: !!!
What! So serious?!
These are the future talents of Da Xia, they must be protected!
System: [Aruan, don't worry, I'll check... ah, yes! Yes, you can't do that. You must send her to a warm room as soon as possible, and then soak her in warm water to avoid rubbing the frozen part.]
Yuan Ruan: [Yes. I will ask my nephew to help me right away.]
Yuan Ruan immediately tugged at the prince's sleeve and thought of an excuse: "Big...Brother. They are so lively and interesting. Invite them to dinner together, okay?"
The prince thought for a moment and said quickly, "Okay! Ninth sister, you can do whatever you want!" After saying that, he immediately asked the palace guards behind him to invite people.
Yuanruan was moved: [My nephew is so nice. ]
System: [Yes. You are so obedient.]
Yuan Ruan and the prince's mouth twitched at the same time. "System, what kind of adjective is this?"
While the two were waiting there, they suddenly heard a call.
Yuan Ruan turned around and saw several people coming out of a house about 500 meters away and walking towards them quickly.
Yuan Ruan looked carefully and found that it was the eldest princess and the seventh princess.
The eldest princess spoke first, "You guys are here again? It's snowing today. Let's go. The plum blossoms are blooming over there. It's very beautiful to cook wine around the fire."
But after she finished speaking, no one responded.
Qi Yue walked up to Yuan Ruan and put his hat on her head first: "Are you cold? Your hands are red."
Yuan Ruan shook her head and was about to say that she wasn't cold, but then she thought of that group of students and what the eldest princess had just said.
Yuanruan's eyes rolled and he said, "Brother...Eldest sister said that we should all come together to enjoy the plum blossoms and have a meal."
The prince was in no mood to sit around the fire and drink wine, but he saw Yuanruan's little hand pointing at the students who were still rubbing snow against each other in the snow.
He immediately understood what Yuanruan meant.
The prince said, "Well. Is that place big enough? Isn't it cold?"
The eldest princess replied subconsciously: "Of course it is big, there is a plum forest behind it. It is not cold. If you are afraid of the cold, it is very close to my private hot spring. Otherwise, why not go directly to the private hot spring."
Yuanruan's eyes lit up. Private hot spring, warm water, yes! She remembered that she also had a private hot spring under her name.
Isn't this just right?
Yuan Ruan pulled the prince's arm and said, "Brother, let's go to the private soup, my private soup, and then have dinner together."
The prince didn't think so. Yuanruan's private bath was a little far away, not as close as the eldest princess's.
So the prince said directly to the eldest princess: "Thank you for your hard work. If you don't like it, I will prepare a new private soup for you later."
The eldest princess was stunned:?
She was a little flattered and was about to say, "How could I not be happy? It's a blessing to have you come to this private hot spring!"
The next second, she saw the prince's palace guards leading more than 20 thinly dressed young men slowly walking towards her.
Princess:?
