Chapter 087 Chapter 87
The news released by Chu Bingbing received a quick response, but it was difficult for everyone to find a day to do it.
Especially now that it is winter break, Ye Pingan replied very honestly, "I really want to go, but it's too cold now."
To be honest, with the VIP service, you don't have to rush like ordinary tourists to enjoy this six-hour service.
Besides, some people in the boys' dormitory were a little embarrassed to take advantage of this spot.
Going to the amusement park doesn't mean going to a comic convention. The VIP ticket for Ningcheng Universal Studios costs 5,000 yuan per person. I went there by using the quota of my roommate's girlfriend's friend. Although I was invited, I really don't have the nerve to do that.
After all, they were not related or friends, just college alumni, and they had only known each other for half a year. He could see that Chu Bingbing was fair, wealthy, and beautiful, but he could not feel at ease enjoying her benefits for nothing.
In the winter in the north, even if there is a big sun hanging in the sky, it is just like the light in the refrigerator, which only provides lighting but has no warming function.
Especially when the Chinese New Year is around the corner, the weather is getting colder. Ah Yan and Zhu Jue wear a full set of equipment including hats, scarves, gloves, down jackets and thick boots whenever they go out. This outfit carries several kilograms of weight. If they carry a backpack, it will be like an outdoor march in the city in winter. The amusement parks are very large, and it takes at least 10,000 steps to walk through several parks in a day. It's tiring just thinking about it.
The group amusement park plan was temporarily put on hold, as Ningcheng snowed all night on the night of the 25th day of the 11th lunar month.
When Ayan and Zhu Jue got up in the morning, they saw Chu Shen howling excitedly in the group.
[Chu Shen]: It’s snowing! It’s snowing! [Video.mp4]
[Chu Shen]: What time are we going to the Forbidden City today?
[Chu Shen]: The snow has been cleared at the hotel entrance.
[Chu Shen]: It seems like it will snow during the day today. Do I need to bring an umbrella?
[Ayan]: We don’t have the habit of playing with umbrellas when it snows. Now that you’re up, we’ll get ready to go out and visit the Forbidden City in the morning.
[祝Jue]: It’s cold today as the snow is melting. We are outside, so @楚深, please wear more clothes.
Chu Shen immediately replied with a “received” emoji and a yellow bean head salute.
Yi Zhi is staying with his mentor in some base in the suburbs of Ningcheng and will not be able to leave until the 28th. Chu Bingbing is still busy today, so they are going to the Ningcheng Palace Museum. A Yan Zhu Jue and Xiao Ge are still in charge of the three-to-one team and are taking care of Chu Shen.
I met Brother Xiao at the subway station entrance, and the three of us looked at Xiao Qingnang who was still carrying a bag.
Because they didn't want to carry too much weight, and the pockets of down jackets were quite large, Ayan and Zhu Jue did not carry backpacks when they brought Chu Shen with them, and they stuffed their cell phone power banks into their pockets.
"Brother Xiao, what did you bring?" Ah Yan looked at the bag that Brother Xiao was carrying, and Chu Shen walked up to him and weighed it.
"Oh my god, it's quite heavy."
"I cooked some soup to dispel the cold, it won't sink." Xiao Qingnang didn't care.
"That's not the case at all." Chu Shen muttered.
After passing through numerous security checks and walking through the Meridian Gate, there weren't many people there at this time, probably because it was almost Chinese New Year. The four of us arrived early, so there was no crowd and the scenery was extremely beautiful.
Chu Shen's eyes looked from left to right and from right to left, and he felt that what he saw was not enough.
Look at the golden glazed tiles covered with layers of white snow and the deep red palace walls, which brings an extremely shocking visual effect.
The sky was azure blue, the red walls were covered in snow, the pine branches were covered in snow, and the white marble steps and carvings that we walked past were covered in traces of snow.
The towering palace is so majestic, magnificent, and desolate that it is difficult to describe the shock I feel at this moment in words.
Ah Yan was also reluctant to blink. It was said that locals didn't go to local attractions, but almost every winter when it snowed, she and Jue Jue would come here if they could get tickets.
As soon as it snows, this palace with hundreds of years of history seems to have returned to the past.
And if you look closely at every small scene after the snow, every water tank, every corner of the wall, every corner of the eaves and arches, everything is beautiful.
The frozen moat, the deserted alley with falling snow, and A-Yan wearing a white down jacket, standing just under the crimson palace wall, with the blue sky and golden tiles as the backdrop, the photos are very photogenic.
Chu Shen stroked the Nine Dragon Wall, and even though his hands were frozen, he asked Xiao Qingnang to take a photo for him.
When Xiao Qingnang finished filming, Chu Shen decisively handed the phone to Zhu Jue, "Brother Jue, you should do it. Master Xiao's skills are simply not as good as mine. He is too straight."
"At first glance, this photo looks very carefully taken, with a blue sky, a red wall, white snow, and a person. All the elements are present, but it is square, with snow below and sky above. I look like a dwarf."
Chu Shen kept complaining, A Yan was laughing secretly, and Brother Xiao was helpless.
"I think it's pretty good. People and scenery are one."
He took the photo really seriously, and spent a long time looking for the right angle to capture all of this.
"Well, you should be thankful that it was me who was being photographed. If it was my future girlfriend, this technique would definitely get her beaten to a pulp."
"It's definitely on par with those ugly photos taken by boyfriends on the Internet."
Chu Shen posed again, and Ah Yan noticed that he took out a photo frame from his pocket and held it in front of him with a smile on his face.
She and Juejue took pictures of Chu Shen from different angles, some alone and some with him holding the photo frame.
When the three of them entered the Treasure House, Chu looked at the photos taken by the young couple with satisfaction.
The four mobile phones are placed together and compared with the one in Xiao Qingnang's photo album. You won't know the difference until you compare it.
Brother Xiao also fell silent.
The photo he took indeed made Chu Shen, who was 1.8 meters tall, look 20 centimeters shorter.
Zhu Jue comforted him: "It's okay, you took good pictures of Peng Peng."
"Brother Jue, your skills are amazing. I think your skills are at the same level as those photographers who can take pictures of clothing for Taobao stores. They are better than those taken by photographers who use cameras."
The pictures in the phone have not been retouched yet. Chu Shen not only saw his own photos, but also Ah Yan's photos. The strong color contrast and appropriate light, as well as the perfect timing of capturing them, all made the photos look very beautiful.
“I’ve learned this through practice over the years.” Zhu Jue smiled.
"Hehe." Ah Yan sniffed, his little face looking very proud.
“It’s all my encouragement.”
I have honed my skills through countless trials and tribulations, so of course I can shoot anything.
Chu Shen immediately bowed in a funny way: "Well, thank you Master A Yan for urging Zhu Jue, so that I can get the photo of my life."
Xiao Qingnang laughed at their expressions, but he looked at the photos on his phone and became thoughtful.
Compared to the people outside, there were not many people in the Treasure House and the Clock Museum, where one had to buy tickets and find directions separately. Ah Yan listened to Chu Shen's constant exclamations of "Wow", "Oh my God", and "So beautiful", and took pictures with his phone.
It has been more than half a year since Yan and Juejue went to Bincheng to study.
Some exhibits will be replaced, and at this moment in the treasure house, A Yan and Xiao Ge's footsteps stopped near two exhibits.
A stunning ceremonial crown inlaid with kingfisher feathers, and a gold hairpin inlaid with pearls and gems.
Every time Yan looked at these two exhibits in the past, he almost held his breath, for fear of disturbing this stunning beauty.
But at this moment, I have a different feeling.
Because the years and owners of the items have been archaeologically identified are marked on the display boards below the items.
Zhou Dynasty, Princess Jianing.
This is something that Suishun once wore.
What kind of clothes did she wear, what kind of makeup did she put on, and did she wear these top-quality treasures?
Ah Yan tilted her head, thinking about Gu Jiasui's face, and looked at the ceremonial crown and jewel hairpin in front of her overlapping with hers.
It was as if I had traveled through hundreds of years of time and saw the princess who was once regal and extremely beautiful.
She was in a trance, and Xiao Qingnang stared at her for a long time.
Until other tourists behind couldn't help but ask: "Have you finished watching?"
Xiao Qingnang then stepped back and said "sorry", and A Yan also intervened and left.
When she came to the Forbidden City before, she would wonder what kind of life the people who had passed by lived here. Was it like in TV dramas?
But it feels completely different to actually know that there is a former princess by your side.
The four of us rushed to attend the volunteer briefings held in both museums, and then arrived at the Clock Museum at 10:40 to wait for today's performance.
After watching the show, it was already past eleven o'clock.
A Yan looked at the guide on his phone. Due to protection and manpower reasons, they could only go to a part of the open area.
"Which one should we go to next? Yu Garden? I saw on the Internet that Yu Garden is very small." After visiting the two museums, Chu Shen became more interested.
"It felt like this day was just a quick tour of a few open areas," he said.
"If you come to Ningcheng, you can't go anywhere without staying for a while."
They walked under the high walls and through the palace gates.
When they actually arrived at Yu Garden, Chu Shen's interest plummeted.
"It's really small. In TV dramas, there are always concubines fighting for favor in the garden, or hiding somewhere, but it's only this big, and not everyone can come and take a walk."
"Life is so depressing. There is not much scenery in the palace. I remember the lines in the palace drama. I have to count countless bricks and steps in my life here," he sighed.
“It’s great that we are modern people.”
Chu Shen's sigh immediately received nods from the three people.
The palace is both big and small.
There are thousands of houses here, and countless people are trapped here for their entire lives.
A Yan managed to have afternoon tea at the East Court of the National Palace Museum, which is near the Yu Garden. It was a good place to warm up and replenish energy.
Small cakes, red bean paste, concubine drink, and now he also took out the cold-dispelling soup that Xiao Ge brought with him. After drinking it, the whole body feels warm as if it were a small stove.
While eating dessert, Ah Yan saw Chu Shen frowning slightly, as if he was not satisfied with the taste.
Ah Yan was drinking the hot red bean paste, and Chu Shen seemed to be tasting it mouthful by mouthful.
Zhu Jue was looking at his phone at the moment, and he received a private message from Brother Xiao who was sitting opposite him.
He had not expected this news.
[Xiao Qingnang]: Zhu Jue, can you teach me how to take photos when you have time?
【Zhu Jue】：Of course you can.
The two of them sent messages silently. Zhu Jue took the remaining half bowl of red bean paste that Ah Yan pushed over to him and started to finish it.
The hot dessert made people feel full and happy. After staying warm for a long time in the afternoon tea, the four of us continued our tour of the Forbidden City.
In order to seize the initiative, Ah Yan and his friends went to the Treasure House of the Nine Dragon Wall first. They did not visit some palaces. Anyway, this was the only visit they had for today, so they decided to have a good time with Chu Shen and his grandparents.
It was noon now and there were more people, but Ah Yan was not worried about getting lost. She and Jue Jue held hands in the pockets of their down jackets. Xiao Ge and Chu Shen had halos on their heads and could be seen at a glance.
Um?
etc?
Why are there three halos?
A Yan rubbed his eyes immediately. He was not mistaken. There were indeed three of them.
It's not a new halo, but something that I'm very familiar with - a girls' dress-up game.
It's the wilderness!
Ah Yan pinched Jue Jue's fingers and whispered, "Yuan Ye is here too."
She gestured with her eyes and looked forward.
There is never a shortage of tourists taking photos in the Forbidden City after the snow.
Although the authorities have banned commercial photography and the carrying of lighting boards, many tourists along the way rented clothes nearby, such as cloaks or war capes. Their makeup was exquisite and they were extremely resistant to freezing.
At this moment, Yuanye was obviously wearing a full wig, and his makeup was simply the most exquisite one.
He was wearing an indigo fur-collared cape and holding onto the white marble railing. His expression was cold and he raised his chin slightly as if looking down at the people below.
To be honest, if Ayan hadn't seen the halo, he would definitely not have recognized Yuanye at the first moment.
She couldn't help but complain in her heart, Yuanye didn't say he was in Ningcheng these days!
"Mom, that girl in blue is so pretty. Is she from the TV drama?" The little girl in fur-collared clothes and holding a candied haws in her hand pointed at the field above and said loudly.
This palace entrance is not very popular, but it gathers many people taking photos.
Most of the people taking photos were wearing red tents, white tents, and yellow clothes, which made the indigo color of the wilderness stand out. With her stern face, if there were not other tourists wearing modern clothes around her, one would really feel as if she was a high-ranking concubine who walked out of some palace drama.
Ayan and Juejue are looking at each other at this moment, that is, in the current situation, do they admit it or not?
She believed that Yuanye might have been forced, but there were still problems with Xiao Ge and Chu Shen.
At this moment, Chu Shen had already walked upwards unconsciously, and A Yan and Jue Jue could only follow him.
After going up the stairs, she made sure that she and Yuanye made eye contact. At that moment, Ayan caught Yuanye's expression as if he was about to collapse.
She was sure, certain, and certain that Yuanye must have not missed the four people who came up together.
Chu Shen went to take a look inside the hall, and when he came out, he found that the other three people were standing by the white marble railing, and seemed to be talking to the beautiful woman in ancient costume who had an outstanding temperament and appearance.
He walked over and saw that the "beauty" seemed to have a bit of a broken expression when facing Mr. Xiao.
Chu Shen didn't know if there was some dispute, so he hurried over.
"What's going on? What's going on?"
"It's okay, after you finish watching we'll go to the next one." A Yan said.
She was actually a little surprised. She didn't expect that Xiao Ge recognized Yuan Ye at first sight.
Just now, while Chu Shen was entering the palace, she and Jue Jue saw Xiao Ge walk directly to Yuan Ye's side, and after a moment of silence, he asked.
"When did you come?"
Yuanye was confused at the time and looked directly at Ayan and Zhu Jue, thinking that the two of them had leaked the information.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ge said that Yuan Ye’s makeup looked good, but it couldn’t cover up her bone structure.
Ayan and Juejue were also confused. Brother Xiao, what kind of eyes do you have? Do medical saints only look at the bones?
Chu Shen looked at the beautiful woman in ancient costume curiously. Why did he feel that the way she looked at him was as if she was avoiding something? And these three people, were they hiding something from him?
"Let's go, then." he said.
Chu Shen looked at the beautiful woman in ancient costume and waved goodbye to them.
Wait, these hands look familiar.
In a flash, something popped into Chu Shen's mind.
He turned around immediately and suddenly realized: "Brother Ye? Is it you?"
Then he looked at the three people again, with a sad and lost look on his face.
"Did you all figure it out? There's a little secret."
Yuanye:!
Ah Yan, Zhu Jue, Xiao Ge:!!!
How did you recognize it?
The original ambition is dead.
Kill him.
Goodbye, this world, now he is going to sail away.
Since the winter vacation, his dress-up game system has created a dress-up tour, and he has been forced to wear certain clothes and go to certain cities and locations to check in.
I just arrived in Ningcheng last night and got two tasks.
One is PKing in ancient costume in the Forbidden City, and the other is PKing in Jingshan Mountain dressed as a hanged ghost.
When Yuanye saw the two words Jingshan and hanged ghost together, he was confused.
Damn, he went to Jingshan to pretend to be a hanged ghost, what, is he PKing with the last emperor? Isn't the game system too much?
But at this moment, he felt the gazes coming towards him from all directions.
"Male?"
"Is this true? It doesn't look like it, you cross-dressing guy."
Want to die.
I really want to die.
If he had known this earlier, he would have gone to Jingshan and pretended to be a hanged ghost.
