Chapter 11 Snow falls on the palace gate
  Wei Shao did not forget his grandfather's instructions and asked his mother and concubine to call the imperial doctor to get a safe pulse for Pei Ying.

Seeing his son's serious look, Deng Shou was happy for him from the bottom of his heart. When the two left, he also asked him to take a lot of persimmons.

Dannu looked at them leaving and couldn't help but sigh: "Madam, look at the prince and the princess, they are really a match made in heaven."

Wei Shao and Pei Ying gradually moved away from each other and gradually disappeared from Deng Shou's sight. She suddenly felt tired and fell backward. Dan Nu's quick eyes and hands helped her support her.

"Madam, I'm going to call the doctor."

Deng Shou stopped her and said softly: "It's okay. Maybe I'm too tired today. Just help me to rest."

Dannu originally wanted to argue again, but when she saw that her wife was silent, she had to give up.

Before Wei Shao could walk out of the palace gate, he was stopped by an internal official who hurried over.

The internal official's face turned red and he said out of breath: "King of Peiping, Your Majesty calls you to return to Weiyang Palace as soon as possible."

"What happened?"

The officer shook his head.

Wei Shao came to Pei Ying and said, "You go back home first."

Pei Ying nodded and watched him run towards the palace without looking back.

In the Peking Palace, Pei Ying sat at the table and took a nap. The charcoal fire at her feet was burning brightly. Yunrou sat beside her and guarded the charcoal fire.

"Yunrou, what time is it?"

"At three o'clock in the morning."

"Is the prince back?"

"not yet."

Pei Ying put on her cloak and walked outside the door. The cold air hitting her face made her wake up instantly.

"Go and ask the coachman to hitch the carriage, and then bring you the prince's cloak and a cloak."

"Princess, are you going to the palace gate?"

"Yes, go and get ready."

A carriage, with a lantern hanging in front of it, set off from the Peking Palace and slowly marched towards the palace gate. Seeing that there were five or six carriages ahead, the coachman stopped the carriage.

When Bai Zheng was shivering in the cold wind, he saw a carriage coming towards him. After he saw it clearly, he hurried to greet it.

"Princess, why are you here?"

"Put on your cloak and get warm in the car."

Seeing Bai Zheng's hesitation, Pei Ying got off the carriage and motioned for him to get up, but Bai Zheng no longer refused.

Pei Ying and Yun Rou were pacing back and forth outside the palace gate. The cold wind blew through the long and narrow palace road from time to time.

"Princess, will the prince stay in the palace tonight?"

"We'll wait until the end of the day, and if he still doesn't come out, we'll go back."

Bai Zheng only stayed in the car for a moment. After regaining consciousness in his hands and feet, he came down to accompany them. Pei Ying originally wanted to persuade him to stay a little longer, but unexpectedly he spoke first and said, "Thank you, Princess. It's a bit colder than our cold winter." The cold I endured on the battlefield was nothing."

Pei Ying stopped trying to persuade them, and the three of them just waited quietly. After an unknown amount of time, tiny snowflakes suddenly began to float in the sky.

"Princess, it's snowing. Please get in the car and wait."

Pei Ying turned around and walked in the direction of the carriage, when suddenly there was the sound of the palace door slowly opening behind her. She turned around and saw Wei Shao walking out, with some people behind him talking.

She walked forward quickly, took the cloak from Yunrou and handed it to Wei Shao. Everyone saw Pei Ying and stopped talking.

"It's cold, put it on quickly."

The scene outside the palace gate was something Wei Shao did not expect, but he remained calm.

"Didn't you go back home? Why are you here?"

"I saw that the weather was not good and I was afraid of snow, so I asked the groom to hitch a carriage to pick you up."

Wei Shao looked at the white snowflakes falling on her black hair and eyelashes, and he was in a trance.

Xiao Shen saw this and hurried forward. “Xiao Shen has met the Princess of Peking.”

Although Pei Ying didn't know him, she remembered that he came to the wedding room yesterday.

"The King of Peking is so lucky. The princess is not only beautiful, but also considerate. She is really envious of the rest of us."

Wei Shao glanced at him and Xiao Shen remained silent.

Seeing this, General Zhong Yang also stepped forward.

"Brothers and sisters, you still remember me. You got married yesterday. We brothers went to Duke Pei's mansion to welcome you."

Pei Ying said with a smile: "Of course I remember that the general is tall and majestic, which is unforgettable."

"My sister-in-law is indeed the daughter of Duke Pei. She is good at talking. She is not like the girls in our family who are all vulgar."

"The general is so complimentary. How dare Pei Ying compare with all the sisters-in-law? They are all favored by the general."

At this time, Pei Kai, Taiwei Yongbo, and the censor Xiao Ting also came forward.

When Pei Ying saw her father, she quickly saluted and said, "Dad."

"This is your Uncle Yong and Uncle Xiao."

"Uncle Yong and Uncle Xiao are well."

Xiao Ting looked at the girl in front of him and liked her very much when he saw her bright eyes, white teeth, and good manners.

"Brother Pei, you are so lucky. All of the daughters you have given birth to are beautiful and virtuous. Unlike our son, who was so considerate as to prepare a big cloak."

"How can I be blessed? This blessing now belongs to the King of Beiping."

Wei Shao quickly held the cloak in front of Pei Kai with both hands.

"Master-in-law, it's cold, please put it on quickly."

"No, this is a gift specially sent to you by Ying'er, so you don't have to be humble."

Yong Bo stayed nearby, originally just observing quietly. After hearing what he said, he couldn't help but said: "Brother Pei, it's really not me who said that you, your daughter and son-in-law, and the couple playing the piano and playing the harp in harmony should be the best ones. You are the one who is having fun, and you are just pretending to be an old man here."

Pei Kai said with a smile: "Today's discussions are too tiring. I'm not teasing you. I want you to relax. Okay, it's getting late. You two should go back to your house quickly."

"Yes."

Wei Shao Pei Ying saluted everyone and left under the attention of everyone.

"You and I can ride in the carriage. It's too cold to ride in the snow."

Wei Shao said "hmm" unconsciously, as if he had lost his soul, and got into the carriage with her.

Bai Zheng was so surprised that he couldn't speak. On the battlefield, the prince had always fought without fear of wind, frost, rain and snow. Today, the snow was nothing to him. How could he be so pretentious as to take a carriage?

Pei Ying handed out an umbrella and motioned for Bai Zheng to hold it, but Bai Zheng froze on the spot.

Yunrou took the umbrella and said enthusiastically: "Put it on."

"I don't have to, Mao Maoxue, it's okay."

Yun Rou rolled her eyes at him, opened the umbrella and handed it over.

"The princess said that you will get wind chill after being exposed to snow."

Seeing her firm eyes, Bai Zheng took the umbrella and awkwardly raised it above his head.

Not long after the carriage set off, Pei Ying felt cramps in her stomach. She frowned and hunched her body tightly.

Wei Shao hurriedly supported her and asked eagerly: "What's wrong with you?"

Pei Ying had beads of sweat on her forehead and said with difficulty, "I'm fine. I have a stomach problem. It's an old problem."

Seeing her painful look, Wei Shao ordered the groom to speed up and rushed back to the palace in a short time.

Pei Ying moved down from the carriage with difficulty. Seeing this, Wei Shao got out of the car before her and picked her up. This time she stopped struggling and leaned quietly on his broad shoulders.

It's not that she doesn't want to struggle, it's just that at this moment, she is in so much pain that she can no longer care about struggling. Stomach pain is a disease, and pain can really kill someone.

 Monday is very busy, princess and prince please read a book
