After travelling for such a long time, they were only two to three days away from the capital. As they got closer, the weather became colder and the snow was still falling from the sky.

Even though the weather was terrible, they still had to continue on their journey. The people driving the carriages outside wore thick clothing and were unable to withstand the onslaught of the cold wind.

It was better for the people in the carriage. Although it was cold, there was nothing they could do. They could only wait until they arrived at their homes in the capital.

They had been hurrying since early morning, only to eat and rest at noon before continuing on their journey. It was already afternoon and the snow was getting heavier and heavier, making it impossible for them to continue on their journey.

There were no houses or inns in this desolate place. There was no one in the village, so they could only temporarily stop the carriage to rest for a while and wait for the snow to fall before continuing their journey.

This place had no hot water, if you were thirsty, you could only barely drink water from the water bag. The ice was so cold that normal people would not be able to drink water from the water bag.

Fortunately, there was still a bit of pastries that was suitable for Mo Dongxue to eat, which Liu Yuemei had always kept on him, so she did not freeze hard.

"Sigh, I wonder when the snow will stop. It looks like we're about to reach the capital, and it's snowing so heavily now." Lady Li sighed and said.

"Yeah, the weather is so cold now, even I'm afraid that Dongxue is sick." Liu Yuemei herself felt very cold, let alone a child as young as Mo Dongxue.

"Mom, I don't think the snow outside will stop anytime soon." Mo Linyu said while standing outside.

"Now that the sky is dark, I think we can only wait here. We'll see in the morning." Wang Dacheng also stood outside and watched the snow falling from the sky.

"Big Brother Cheng, you should quickly go into the carriage and stay inside. It's snowing heavily outside, so it's pretty cold outside. If you get a cold, it won't be good." Mo Xiaoxia was worried.

"Yeah, it's not too cold. I'll be going in in a while." Towards Mo Xiaoxia's concern for him, Wang Dacheng was still rather happy. Even in such a cold weather, his heart felt warm.

"Xiaoxia, don't you see that I'm still standing outside? Why don't you let me quickly enter the carriage?" Mo Linyu joked.

"Big brother, if you were cold, you would have definitely come to the carriage by yourself. Do you even need me to tell you that?" Mo Xiaoxia said with a smile.

"Yeah, don't tell me you want us to greet you." Liu Yuemei teased.

"Then I'll just stand outside. I'll come in when it gets cold." Mo Linyu pretended to be angry.

If only his own family was like this, he would not be in such a sorry state today. But fortunately, he had met this family, and swore in his heart that from today onwards, he would live well and follow this family forever.

Originally, Wang Dacheng wanted to find some dry wood to build a fire at night so that everyone could stay together and get warm. However, after going for a long time, Wang Dacheng hadn't found any dry wood, since it was all wet, and it was certain that he couldn't light it either.

Thus, he could only sit in the carriage and rest for the night.

Mo Xiaoyan's life in the capital was rather comfortable, other than being a little boring, the rest were not bad.

It had already been five or six days since Su Jinxuan came to visit him, and it was getting dark earlier, so Mo Xiaoyan had also slept rather early at night.

While he was warm and sleeping under the blanket, there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it? What are you knocking on the door for at night? " Mo Xiaoyan was still half asleep and was not completely woken up by the knock on the door.

"Who else but me?" Su Jinxuan's deep and magnetic voice came from outside the door.

"What are you doing here so late?" Hurry up and go, I want to rest, I'm so sleepy. " Mo Xiaoyan did not want to leave this warm bed.

"You and I haven't seen each other in so many days. It's so rare to have the time to come over and visit you, and yet you're telling me to go back so quickly?" Su Jinxuan had to definitely meet Mo Xiaoyan today.

"But now that I'm so sleepy and it's so cold outside, I really don't want to get up." Mo Xiaoyan yawned and said.

"If you don't want to get up, then I'll go in and accompany you, okay?" Su Jinxuan only wanted to scare Mo Xiaoyan, he did not really have to do that.

"Since you can't open the door, I'm not afraid." Mo Xiaoyan turned her body again and continued to sleep.

"Do you really think I can't open this tiny door with my skill?" Su Jinxuan said indifferently.

"Aiya, okay, okay. Wait for me outside for a while, I'm going to get up." Mo Xiaoyan was really afraid that Su Jinxuan would break this door, this room was more comfortable, if this door was broken, then it would be so cold that it would kill him if the cold wind blew in.

Mo Xiaoyan hurriedly got up and put on some thick clothes before going out to open the door.

"After wasting so much time, you're finally out." Su Jinxuan said in a serious tone.

"When did I dawdle for a long time? I just put on a few extra clothes." Mo Xiaoyan curled her lips and said.

"I've been rather busy recently, and I don't have much time to visit you. It's pretty boring for you to be here by yourself, don't you blame me?" Su Jinxuan said gently.

"Why should I blame you? You protecting me like this, I don't even have enough time to be grateful to you, how can I blame you? I also know that Jiang Wen only wants to take my life right now, and the reason why you don't let me out is also for my own good. How can I blame you instead?" Mo Xiaoyan was also a reasonable person, she would not be so indiscriminate.

"It's good that you understand." Su Jinxuan felt that Mo Xiaoyan was happy that she could understand him.

"It's snowing in such cold weather, why didn't you rest earlier? Why did you come looking for me?" Mo Xiaoyan was already wearing very thick clothes, but she was still shivering from the cold.

"I've missed you. Is that reason enough?" Su Jinxuan said gently.

"I feel a bit embarrassed that you're suddenly acting like this." Mo Xiaoyan turned around, and was no longer standing face to face with Su Jinxuan.

"I didn't expect you to feel embarrassed too." Su Jinxuan's smile became even wider.

"By the way, have you been looking into that lately?" Mo Xiaoyan wanted to ask how the investigation was going, she couldn't go on like this.

"Mm, yeah, what's the matter?" Su Jinxuan raised his eyebrows and asked.

"How is it? That Imperial Consort Lan in the palace, did you manage to find anything? " Mo Xiaoyan was more concerned about this problem, because she had a feeling that the reason Su Jinxuan was being hunted down was related to that Imperial Consort Lan. That Imperial Consort Lan must be very powerful, otherwise, it would not have taken him so long to find out.
