"Didn't I tell you to take the sedan chair? Why are you walking here alone in this heavy snow?!"
Emperor Mian's anxious voice came, with a hint of worry in his tone.
Hearing the familiar voice, Gu Xiaoqiao turned around suddenly and saw Di Mian's figure.
Today he was wearing a crimson brocade-embroidered python robe, with magnolia-colored piping on the cuffs outlining delicate and intricate patterns. Around his waist was a soft smoke gauze with white fox fur trim. His black hair was tied up high with an inlaid black jade hairpin inserted diagonally. His eyebrows and eyes were handsome and noble, and his expression implied a domineering aura that looked down on the sky.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." Gu Xiaoqiao bowed.
Her body was becoming increasingly bulky, and she could no longer squat as quickly as before, so performing a salute became extremely difficult for her.
"I've already told you not to engage in these empty formalities in front of me, why do you always bother?"
Emperor Mian frowned and quickly stepped forward to support her.
"I know everything the Emperor has said, but this is happening outside. If it gets out, some ministers will accuse me of being arrogant, defiant, and breaking the rules."
"While I'm here, who dares to gossip?" Emperor Mian snorted.
He didn't want Gu Xiaoqiao to suffer any injustice, even if she was by his side.
"Um."
Gu Xiaoqiao nodded obediently, "Your Majesty is right."
"But why are you here, Your Majesty? Have you finished what you are doing?"
Emperor Mian nodded slightly, "Almost done, just finished."
After saying that, he looked up at the sky. Snowflakes were flying everywhere, and they felt cold on his face. It seemed that the snow was getting heavier.
He was about to ask for a sedan chair to be brought over when Gu Xiaoqiao tugged at his hand and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, please walk with me for a while. I haven't even seen snow properly yet."
Her eyes sparkled like a pair of glass.
Seeing her pitiful appearance, Emperor Mian couldn't help but sigh, "Okay, okay, I will accompany you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Xiaoqiao said happily.
So, Di Mian walked slowly forward with an umbrella in one hand and Gu Xiaoqiao in the other.
The sky and the earth are vast, and the snow is flying.
The two of them strolled here, as beautiful as a painting.
Di Mian's hands were very warm. Even through the thick clothes, she could feel the warmth of the man's palm.
Gu Xiaoqiao tilted her head slightly, staring intently at the perfect profile of the person next to her.
She couldn't help but recall the scene when she first saw him when she entered the palace. She was so nervous at the time that she didn't even dare to look at him. She just felt that he was really ferocious.
Di Mian lowered his head and happened to meet her eyes. He raised his eyebrows and then raised his lips in a faint smile.
His smile was like a spring breeze, making her feel relaxed and happy.
"Why is my Qiao Qiao looking at me like that? Is it because she thinks her husband is too handsome and is stunned by him?"
He leaned close to her ear and blew hot air into her ear in a deliberately ambiguous tone.
Gu Xiaoqiao's cheeks flushed, and she quickly averted her gaze, lowering her eyes to hide her inner embarrassment. She whispered, "I was looking at your Majesty's temples... there was snow."
"Yeah?"
Di Mian chuckled, not intending to expose her, and helped her continue walking forward.
She's almost going to be a mother, but she's still so shy, which makes him a little distracted.
In fact, ever since she became pregnant, he had been thinking about abstaining from sex for a while so that he wouldn't be unable to control himself.
But he couldn't bear to let her go. He couldn't sleep every night holding her in his arms, thinking about her scent, her every frown and smile, every anger and rage.
Later, when she realized that she had been enduring the problem, she actually took the initiative to help him solve it, using another clever method.
Later, when she was in the middle of her pregnancy, she was even more bold and pulled him along to indulge in it. Although the process was extremely cautious, it was quite interesting.
He suddenly felt that he might never be able to leave this little woman in his life.
"Jojo."
Thinking of this, he suddenly called out softly.
Gu Xiaoqiao looked up at the sound, "Hmm?"
"Having you is the greatest blessing in my life."
Emperor Mian stared at her seriously, his deep black eyes filled with her figure.
As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly became silent, as if even the wind had stopped.
Gu Xiaoqiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "It is my great fortune to have met the Emperor."
"I'm serious."
Emperor Mian held her hand and said solemnly.
"I understand."
Gu Xiaoqiao lowered her eyes and looked at her hands intertwined with his, a happy smile appearing at the corners of her mouth.
For Gu Jinqiao, meeting Emperor Mian in this life is indeed her blessing and the greatest luck in her life.
Di Mian held her hand tightly, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
This little girl was his, his alone, forever.
The journey that was supposed to take a quarter of an hour ended up taking the two of them an incense stick of time.
Caiwei and Manager Wang followed from a distance. Although they walked three times slower than an ant, they were very happy.
After arriving at Shoukang Palace, the Empress Dowager warmly took Gu Xiaoqiao's hand and examined her carefully. "Oh, it's snowing heavily. Are you frozen?"
"Don't worry, Grand Empress Dowager. I'm fully dressed and unharmed. The child is also healthy. He just gave me a kick."
"Okay, okay."
The Grand Empress Dowager smiled from ear to ear, her eyes full of kindness. "Hurry up and sit down. Don't tire my great-grandson out."
Gu Xiaoqiao: “…”
