Chapter 61 Destiny to meet thousands of miles

It is cold in winter, people are afraid of the cold, horses walk slowly, and the days are too short. Lu Mingyu's family set off from Hangzhou City in early October. There are five days away.

It was almost dusk, the sun was dim, and several carriages slowly stopped in front of the post station.

Because Lu Rong had sent someone to say hello in advance, Yi Cheng had already cleaned up the best courtyard here, and graciously invited the five members of Lu's family to live in.No matter how thick the cotton carriage curtains were, there were still strands of cold wind blowing in from the gaps. The three Lu Mingyu siblings were frozen to death. After getting out of the carriage, they followed Xiao to the backyard and hurried to burn the earth dragon and silver fire. Silk charcoal to keep warm in the house.

"It's so cold." Lu Mingyu hugged the copper cloisonné enamel hand stove with lotus patterns and begonia patterns, and couldn't help stomping her feet lightly. She felt that her feet had turned into two lumps of ice, without any warmth at all.

"Go and sit on the kang." Xiao said distressedly while undoing the thick cloak on his youngest son.The closer it is to the capital, the colder it gets.

Lu Mingyu rubbed her hands, took off her shoes, climbed onto the kang, and sat down next to the head of the kang.Qiuyue thoughtfully handed over a brocade quilt that had been warmed in advance. Lu Mingyu took it and covered her legs. Brother Heng ran over cleverly, and Lu Mingyu opened a corner to let his younger brother in. Brother Nian saw it and grinned. The small mouth should be covered with my sister.

So Lu Mingyu sat in the middle, with a younger brother sitting on either side, and the three sisters squeezed together, and they warmed up quickly.

"Mom, this time I'm going home, I won't go out again." Lu Mingyu wearily said to her mother while holding her three-year-old fat boy as a hand stove.After leaving the capital for nearly four years, the family first went to Yueyang from the capital, and then moved east along the Yangtze River to change counties every few months until they reached Hangzhou. Lu Mingyu couldn't remember how many times she moved.

Mrs. Xiao nodded, moved to her daughter and said, "Well, we will live in the capital for a long time from now on, and we won't go anywhere."

While talking, Lu Rong came back.

Xiao Shi quietly patted the seat next to her, motioning her husband to sit down.

They are all a family, Lu Rong was not polite, sat down, drank some hot tea to keep warm, Lu Rong smiled and looked at her daughter, "A Nuan, just now Liu Yicheng said that Yongding County has a custom of ice games in winter, this We came here by chance this time, and caught up with tomorrow's Bingxi, do you want to see it? It's on the river in the north of the city."

"Daddy, what is Bingxi?" Brother Heng asked in confusion, and Brother Nian also looked at Daddy blankly.

The two younger brothers both grew up in the south, not to mention Bingxi, they haven't even seen real heavy snow a few times, but Lu Mingyu has seen it many times in his two lifetimes.Every winter, someone in the palace would arrange ice play for the entertainment of the empress and concubines. As the niece of Emperor Ming Hui, Lu Mingyu would always receive invitations from the empress.

"Bingxi is a group of people playing on the ice." Lu Mingyu nodded Nian's nose and explained simply.

"I want to play too!" Brother Heng and Brother Nian almost said in unison when they heard that it was fun.

Lu Rong has decided to take the children there, he just wants to know if his daughter, who is afraid of the cold, is interested.

Lu Mingyu actually didn't really want to go, but the younger brothers were very interested, so Lu Mingyu nodded and said with a smile: "Go, I haven't seen the folk way of playing."

And when the Lu family was discussing the itinerary for tomorrow, Chu Xing also learned the news at the post station in the neighboring county forty miles away.

"My lord, why don't we also go to see the excitement?" A guard of the Shenshu camp who left the capital with him on business said with interest.

Chu Xing himself didn't want to go, but looking at the other two subordinates who were also looking forward to it, and thinking about the hard work of the past few days, Chu Xing was right.

The errand entrusted to him by the emperor has been completed, and he will take a half-day rest before returning to the capital, just treat them as a reward.
