When I woke up early the next morning, it was just as the high priest had said. The heavy snow had disappeared, and the thick snow on the ground was instantly melted by the bright sun. The sleeping people were also awakened by the huge temperature difference.
Shu Jiaying quickly got out of bed and took off her heavy cotton jacket. She exclaimed, "Oh my God! It's so early in the morning, and the temperature outside can't be over 30 degrees Celsius already?"
Yu Chenfeng beside him didn't say anything. With sweat on his forehead, he slowly took off his heavy clothes until he was left with only a single piece of clothing.
Open the window outside and you will see that the water melted from the snow has already been dried by the sun.
Yu Chenfeng knew that experiencing two extreme weather conditions at once was not a good sign. He had never felt so insignificant before. At this moment, he just hoped that the big disaster would not come too soon.
Turning his head, Yu Chenfeng said to Shu Jiaying, "Yingying, you stay in the palace first. I want to go to the high priest."
Shu Jiaying immediately objected.
"No, I don't want to stay here all the time. If you are busy, then I will go back to the palace first."
In fact, the place Shu Jiaying wanted to go most was the inn where Old Man Shu and Mrs. Ke lived, because after experiencing the cold and hot weather, she didn't know how Old Man Shu and Mrs. Ke were doing now.
Yu Chenfeng didn't object because Shu Jiaying was accompanied by Xiaoxue.
On the surface, Xiaoxue is a maid in the palace who is always on duty to serve tea and water, but secretly Yu Chenfeng has already trained her to be a secret guard with excellent boxing and kicking skills.
With Xiaoxue protecting Shu Jiaying, Yu Chenfeng felt very relieved.
"That's fine. Boss Guan and Xiaohua are in the palace. I'll feel more at ease if the three of you take care of each other. I'll be out first."
"Achen, the weather has been changing a lot lately. You need to be more careful, okay?"
"Well, I'll take good care of myself, so don't worry. But you...if you return to the palace, please don't go out unless it's necessary, okay?"
Shu Jiaying didn't want to make Yu Chenfeng worry, so she nodded readily.
After watching Yu Chenfeng leave, Xiaoxue soon brought a long dress for going out and handed it to Shu Jiaying.
Shu Jiaying had never seen this long dress before. She asked, "Did you buy this dress outside the palace?"
"No, Princess, this skirt was specially prepared for you by the maids from the Embroidery Shop in the palace. They knew the weather would suddenly get hot and you didn't have any suitable clothes, so they asked me to go to the Embroidery Shop and choose a ready-made dress.
Madam, do you like this long skirt?"
Xiaoxue chose a goose yellow chiffon long dress. The overall design was youthful and energetic, but what made Shu Jiaying most satisfied was that the fabric of the dress was soft, which made it comfortable and cool to wear. She nodded.
"Xiaoxue, you have good taste. I really like the dress you chose."
"As long as the queen likes it."
Xiaoxue was happily tidying up Shu Jiaying's skirt when a sour voice came from outside the hall.
"Hey... I was wondering why there's one dress missing from the one I asked the maids at the Embroidery Workshop to prepare. It turns out my favorite dress is actually being worn by Princess Chen. But Princess Chen, you took the owner's things without asking. That's very unethical!"
Shu Jiaying looked at the newcomer calmly.
It turned out that the visitor was the emperor of Luosuo Kingdom’s favorite concubine - Zhong Lihua.
Shu Jiaying nodded slightly to Zhong Lihua.
"This humble servant pays respects to Concubine Zhong."
