Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Unexpected Visitor

"Master Pony, you're back!" A guard at the gate of Princess Taiping's mansion stepped forward, took the reins from Liu Yi's hand with a respectful look, and nodded in greeting. The other two guards stayed where they were, hesitating to remove the snowflakes from Liu Yi's body.

After a few days, Liu Yi's majesty was prosperous, and Princess Taiping obeyed him in everything, no one in the mansion was not afraid of him, and all the subordinates were trembling in front of Liu Yi.

Liu Yi casually threw Chasing Wind to the guard who came to pick up the reins, and shook off the snowflakes that fell on his body.

It was snowing heavily, and Liu Yi had just returned from the village outside the city.

The heavy snow began to fall after nightfall last night, and it didn't stop, Liu Yi went out of the house early this morning, and said to Princess Taiping that she wanted to go to the village outside the city to have a look, Princess Taiping didn't ask Liu Yi what to do, but just asked Liu Yi to come back early.

Liu Yi went to arrange the training of the guards, it snowed heavily, and it was a good opportunity to carry out some snow subject training under such a bad situation, he guided the guards to train for a long time in the courtyard, and trained with them, but he was afraid that the princess Taiping in the house was worried, and in the afternoon, he returned to the house.

The snow is not ordinarily big, Liu Yi was covered with snowflakes when he returned home, and the same was true of several other guards, Liu Yi also ordered several guards to rest after shaking off the snowflakes on his body, and took care of the few war horses he had just ridden, and then went to the house by himself.

According to the report of the subordinates in the front hall, Princess Taiping was resting in the main room, and Liu Yi also walked through the front hall and to the back.

After returning home, he had just recovered a little, and when Liu Yi also walked to the back, he moved his muscles and bones to make the blood circulation smooth, so as to avoid the wind and cold.

Due to the cold weather, there was no one outside the house, and Liu Yi also pushed the door in by himself.

A wave of heat came to his face, and there was also a stove in the outhouse inside the main house, which was very warm, which suddenly made Liu Yi a little uncomfortable.

"The Pony Master is back!" Xiaoyun and Ping'er, the two maids who were simmering on fire, saw Liu Yi coming in, and they were startled and hurriedly got up to greet them.

"Is the princess in the house?" Liu Yi looked at the faces of the two pretty maids who had become very bright due to the roasting fire, and asked with a smile.

The two pretty maids glanced at each other and whispered, "The princess is in the house... Slave and maid go and report it!"

"No need!" Liu Yi waved his hand and motioned for the two maids to continue to warm up, "I'll go in by myself..."

The two maids glanced at each other again, and stopped talking, and the demeanor of the two made Liu Yi a little surprised.

Liu Yi walked outside the door, paused for a moment, she had already heard the sound of talking in the house, it was the voice of several people, he listened attentively for a while, smiled on his face, pushed open the hidden door hard, and stepped in.

The voices in the room stopped suddenly.

"Wan'er..."Liu Yi called out in surprise. When he was outside the door, he could already hear Shangguan Wan'er's voice, but when he saw this beauty in the house, he still couldn't hide his surprise.

It was Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er who stayed in the room, the two were almost sitting and talking together, and as soon as they saw Liu Yi coming in, they immediately stood up. Liu Yi saw that neither of them was wearing a jacket, but only a tight-fitting shirt, which perfectly framed the bumpy figure.

"Husband, you're back!" When Princess Taiping saw Liu Yi coming in, she immediately greeted her, with some smugness on her face.

Shangguan Wan'er, who was a little cramped, turned red all of a sudden after seeing Liu Yi, walked over after Princess Taiping, and said a little awkwardly: "I've seen Liu Yima..."

Princess Taiping walked up to Liu Yi, looked at Liu Yi's somewhat wet boots, and some sticky clothes after the snow melted, and exclaimed in surprise, "Husband, you are all wet, don't go to change your clothes and come in again, I'm worried that I will get cold!" shouted to the outside again, "Xiaoyun, Ping'er, quickly change the clothes of the colt..."

Liu Yi looked at Princess Taiping with a look of concern, how could he feel that such a shouting appearance was a bit for Shangguan Wan'er to see, and poor Shangguan Wan'er stood aside very embarrassed, not knowing what to say.

"Wan'er, why do you have time to come and see me today... Guys? Liu Yi broke away from Princess Taiping's hand and looked at Shangguan Wan'er and said.

Shangguan Wan'er didn't answer, Princess Taiping rushed to say: "It's the concubine who went into the palace to pick her up, it's snowing heavily, it's rare to have such a good weather, and the plum blossoms in the house are also blooming, it's the time to enjoy the plum blossoms in the snow, when you go out of the city, the concubine is idle, so go into the palace to see the queen mother, and by the way, take Wan'er out, the three of us can taste wine and enjoy the snow together, and chant poetry and music..."

"Oh!? I see..."Liu Yi looked into Princess Taiping's eyes, trying to figure out what she meant by doing this.

However, at this time, Xiaoyun and Ping'er had already entered the house with their clothes, and Liu Yi had to look away, and the two maids hurriedly changed the clothes outside for Liu Yi, and then exited the house and brought the door.

"Husband, you still ride a horse when you go out in such a heavy snow, you won't go in a carriage, look at the snow you fall on, your face is frozen like this!" Princess Taiping still stuck back to Liu Yi's side, shouting, with a look of pity, and touched Liu Yi's face.

The two showed such an affectionate look, which made Shangguan Wan'er on the side even more embarrassed.

"It's okay," Liu Yi shook his head with a smile, looked at Princess Taiping, and then looked at Shangguan Wan'er with an embarrassed face, "I knew that you were in Yaxing like this, so I wouldn't have gone out of the city, hehe..."

"The concubine went and ordered, let them put some wine and food, I don't know when the husband will come back, so I didn't let them prepare, husband, you accompany Wan'er to talk, the concubine will come back in a while," Princess Taiping looked at Liu Yi with a wicked smile, and without waiting for Liu Yi to agree, she walked out of the house and brought the door.

Liu Yi watched Princess Taiping walk out of the house in a hurry, and then looked back at Shangguan Wan'er, who was a little at a loss, walked over, and stood two steps in front of Shangguan Wan'er, "Wan'er, I really didn't expect you to come today, I knew I would come back earlier..."

There were only two people in the room, Shangguan Wan'er calmed down, raised her head and looked at Liu Yi deeply for a while, and said in a low voice: "Such a heavy snow, Liu Yi... Yi'an, are you still going out of the city? Anything else to do? ”

"Go to the village outside the city to arrange some things, fortunately, the snow is not too thick, otherwise you won't be able to come back!" Liu Yi said with a smile.

"You have to worry about your body, don't get cold!" Shangguan Wan'er said with a worried face.

Liu Yi approached Shangguan Wan'er's side, grabbed Shangguan Wan'er's hand wrung in front of him, looked at her bright and incomprehensible face at close range and said, "It's okay, I've often had this kind of thing before, but you, worry about your body, don't freeze..."

"I stay in the palace, and I rarely come outside, so I won't freeze," Shangguan Wan'er said with affection as she looked at Liu Yi.

"That's good, but you still have to pay attention, are you going back to the palace today?" Liu Yi asked quietly.

Shangguan Wan'er's face suddenly flushed, and she said unnaturally: "The princess invited me to stay in the mansion for a night, and I would go back to the palace with her tomorrow, and I would not be able to refuse..."

Liu Yi shook his head resolutely when he heard this, "Wan'er, you better go back to the palace, otherwise the queen of heaven will know that something bad is going to happen, and we can find a time to meet and talk about things alone..."

Princess Taiping, the demon girl, has gone too far, the two have just gotten married, and they actually pulled a character like Shangguan Wan'er to the house, and left her to stay overnight, not to mention whether this would violate the rules of the palace, just let Wu Zetian know, then he will definitely blame something, maybe he won't blame Princess Taiping, but he will definitely have some reproach for Shangguan Wan'er.

Shangguan Wan'er raised her head with some disappointment, looked at Liu Yi, and seemed to understand, "Well, I understand, I'll go back to the palace before the curfew..."

"I'll send you back to the palace in a moment..."

Outside the house, Princess Taiping shouted to the maid, Shangguan Wan'er's hand broke free, and immediately took a few steps back, keeping a few steps away from Liu Yi, and her face flushed again.

Princess Taiping pushed the door in, her eyes immediately looked at the place where the two were standing, looked at Liu Yi, who did not have any abnormality, and then looked at Shangguan Wan'er, whose face was quite normal, and seemed to be relieved.

Princess Taiping walked to Liu Yi's side, took Liu Yi's hand and said: "Husband, the concubine has already instructed them to put the wine and food in the house near the plum blossom in the mansion, and we will go over together in a while. Wan'er just promised to leave us a picture of plum blossoms..."

Liu Yi turned his head sideways, looked at Princess Taiping, who was pretending to be a little pretentious, and asked, "What about you?" What are you going to show us? ”

Shangguan Wan'er, who heard Liu Yi's words with a little speech, looked a little unnatural, but she didn't speak.

"I can't make any poems, and my painting skills are far inferior to Wan'er, so I'll do chores for the two of you today, and grind ink and paper for you!" Princess Taiping deliberately bit the two of you very hard, and secretly pinched Liu Yi's arm after speaking.

Liu Yi was in pain, and it was difficult to have a seizure in front of Shangguan Wan'er, so he had to endure it.

"Pony, princess, the food and drinks have been set up outside, will you go over now?" Xiaoyun asked outside the house.

"It's over now!" Liu Yi replied, "You guys come in and add some clothes for the princess!"

Xiaoyun and Ping'er came in response, put on a coat for Princess Taiping, and added a thick cloak.

Liu Yi walked over, took off the thick cloak of Shangguan Wan'er that was on the side, and put it on for Shangguan Wan'er.

Princess Taiping turned her head a little annoyed and glared at Liu Yi, but after seeing Shangguan Wan'er's somewhat embarrassed eyes, she smiled again.

Several people were dressed up and walked towards the courtyard together.

Xiaoyun and Ping'er walked in front with Princess Taiping's hand, and Liu Yi and Shangguan Wan'er walked behind.

There was already a table of steaming wine and food in a room with open windows in the courtyard, two big red stoves on the side, and a few maids such as Tang Ning were standing, and other irrelevant subordinates did not let them in.

The three of them sat down one after another, Liu Yi sat in the middle, Shangguan Wan'er and Princess Taiping sat on the left and right...
