Chapter 336: The Eve of the Little New Year! The Calmness Before Separation
He Zhaojun blushed. She had known his earnest intentions for a long time, so naturally she had no intention of blaming him. However, Wen Ziduan couldn't get over it. "Your Majesty has already said that I am an envoy, not a princess to be married off. Besides, you were also eager to save people at that time. How could I blame you?"
She struggled to break free from Wen Ziduan's arms: "I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going ice fishing. I'm still short of a few fish for tomorrow's dinner table." He Zhaojun shouted, and Shao Shang and Jin Yuji poked their heads out from behind the tent.
"Sister Zhaojun, please be nice to the Third Prince!" Shao Shang stuck out his tongue at He Zhaojun, then quickly dragged Jin Yuji forward and said, "We've already had two wedding banquets, but we haven't consummated the marriage yet..."
He Zhaojun rolled up a big snowball and threw it at the backs of the two men. Jin Yuji dodged left and right, but the snowball hit Shaoshang's butt. She cried out "ouch!" and saw a large muddy field covered with rain and snow ahead. She nimbly jumped onto Huo Buyi's back and said, "Zisheng, help! Sister Zhaojun is angry."
Huo Buyi was talking to Gu Guan when he reluctantly grabbed the arm of the chubby little girl. Gu Guan then saw Shao Shang wrapped in a fur coat, his cheeks flushed and frost hanging on his eyelashes, like a fairy in a painting.
Wen Zikun, who was standing by, quickly glanced at Jin Yuji. He opened his arms, flapped them twice, and pointed at Yi Shang and the other two. The fox fur scarf on his shoulders slipped off, revealing his mouth: "I want one too. Carry it on your back..."
Jin Yuji smacked her lips and nodded helplessly, seemingly not understanding his behavior. However, she still leaned over, uprooted the weeping willow tree, and carried Wen Zikun on her back: "Is this okay?"
Wen Zikun was filled with shame and indignation. He was already quite old, yet he had met Jin Yuji, a foreigner. They always chatted about this kind of thing across servers. He struggled to get off the ground, steadying himself on the icy ground, and carrying Jin Yuji on his back. Jin Yuji was stunned for a moment before she realized Wen Zikun meant to carry her forward.
When He Zhaojun saw them like this, she was also stunned. She then turned to look at Wen Ziduan, but unexpectedly, she saw Ti Houshan carrying Wen Ziduan on his back and walking forward, slowly passing her.
"Are you kidding me? Why are you two such weird couple?!" He Zhaojun waved at Gu Guan. Gu Guan was very knowledgeable and acted as a human being, being careful not to let the mud and water dirty He Zhaojun's shoes.
Wen Ziduan was furious: "He Zhaojun, come down!"
"No, you come down first!"
"How could you let Gu Guan carry you?"
"How dare you say that to me?!"
Gu Guan and Ti Houshan had long been accustomed to the way they were, so they didn't pay much attention to it and just walked forward in the snow and water. Soon, they came to the cold and hard river.
He Zhaojun snorted, "You'd better not come down. We're going fishing." As she said that, she jumped off Gu Guan's back, and several girls ran forward chattering. The center of the river had not yet frozen, and it was exactly where He Jiang fell into the water that day.
Perhaps there are hot springs underground, so this place is still not frozen. Many fish are tilting their heads back to breathe. From time to time, a fat fish jumps onto the ice and is caught in the nets of a few people with their quick eyes and hands.
He Zhaojun tugged at the fishing net she had cast long ago and dumped its contents onto the ice. All three of them had caught something, but she happened to have landed two fish half a man's length, her biggest catch of the day.
"What is this?" He Zhaojun casually flipped through the fishing net and took out a milky white jade pendant without any impurities from the mouth of a fish. The totem carved on it was not of the Central Plains style, and no one knew why it appeared in the river.
He Zhaojun scratched her face and said, "Chen Sheng and Wu Guang hid books in the belly of a fish, and we have a fish mouth spewing jade. It's a good omen."
