After Xiao Yang took out the charcoal and returned to Red Luan Palace, he pushed open the door and coincidentally, a snowball flew towards Xiao Yang.
"Big Sister Xiao Yang, be careful."
Before Xiao Yang could react, he saw a snowball flying towards him. Xiao Yang couldn't dodge in time.
Just as Xiao Yang was about to be hit, the snowball was intercepted by someone a second before it hit Xiao Yang.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, "Young Master Wu Shan sure was impressive just now."
"What a great hero saving a beauty! I'm really envious of her. I also want to be smashed by a snowball."
Young master Wu Shan is the only son of the General Wei Yuan, and is also a blood cousin of the Thirteenth Princess.
"I was just thinking. Of course I know that a palace maid like me is not worthy of Young Master Wu Shan, but daydreaming has to be done."
Several palace maids looked at the heroic scene in front of them, whispering to each other. Xiao Yang was quite far away from them, so he could not hear what they were saying. However, Xiao Yang had been waiting for a long time, and after a long while, he did not see the snowball smash onto his body. When he raised his head, he saw a wide body blocking in front of him.
The one who saved Xiao Yang, was none other than Wu Shan.
"Xiao Yang, are you alright?"
Even though the snowball was stopped by Wu Shan and had not hit him, he was still worried that Xiao Yang would be frightened by this accident.
Thank you, Young Master Wu Shan, for saving me.
If not for the cold winter wind blowing Xiao Yang's face red, others would think that Xiao Yang was blushing because of Wu Shan's help.
"Xiao Yang, what's that in your hand?" Wu Shan saw that Xiao Yang was holding onto a basket of stuff, and in order to break the awkward situation, he used this as an excuse to find a chance to talk to Xiao Yang.
In reply to Young Master Wu Shan, this is the charcoal fire Xiao Yang went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get for the princess. The princess is afraid that the charcoal fire from before isn't warm enough, and this servant is afraid that the princess will be cold.
Wu Shan naturally knew that Duan Yunfei was afraid of cold. Although Wu Shan was also worried about Duan Yunfei, Wu Shan still couldn't bear to have Xiao Yang walk in such a cold weather for so long to go to search for charcoal.
Looking at Xiao Yang's face turn red from the cold wind, then looking at Xiao Yang's cold hands holding the basket, Wu Shan's heart ached.
"Didn't the Ministry of Internal Affairs send someone to deliver it? There's no need to personally go and get it in this cold weather. If Yun Fei knew about it, he would be pained, right?"
Although Wu Shan would definitely feel sorry for him, the person who would feel heartache was Wu Shan himself.
Xiao Yang laughed embarrassedly, but because his face was frozen stiff, her smile looked forced.
"Young Master Wu Shan, Xiao Yang is worried. Ministry of Internal Affairs did not know when she would be able to send the charcoal down, so Xiao Yang had no choice but to take some out first. "
"What are you two doing at the door? Why aren't you coming in? Do you think the outside isn't cold enough?"
Duan Yunfei was originally reading a military manual in the room. When Xiao Ya and the others shouted "Big Sister Xiao Yang, be careful", Duan Yunfei was shocked, so she hurriedly came out.
In the end, before Duan Yunfei could make her move, she was already snatched away by Wu Shan. Duan Yunfei looked from afar as Wu Shan and Xiao Yang conversed at the door. Originally, she didn't want to disturb the relationship between Wu Shan and Xiao Yang, but the two had discussed for too long in the cold wind. Duan Yunfei was worried that they would get cold, so she had no choice but to call them in.
Wu Shan was only concerned with Xiao Yang and did not notice when Duan Yunfei came out., who was grabbed by Duan Yunfei, felt a little embarrassed.
"We're going in."
Wu Shan naturally took the basket that Xiao Yang had been holding onto all this while, without caring about what Xiao Yang said to stop him.
"Young Master Wu Shan, let this servant carry it for myself …"
"It's fine, you've also brought it up for a long time, Yun Fei is still waiting for us. "Hurry up and enter. After you enter, warm up properly. Otherwise, you'll catch a cold."
When Wu Shan took the basket from Xiao Yang's hands, he accidentally touched Xiao Yang's hands. Her hands were so cold, compared to the snow on the ground, they weren't much better.
Xiao Yang could not win against Wu Shan, so he let Wu Shan bring the basket that he should have been carrying, and followed Wu Shan into the hall.
Once he entered the hall, Xiao Yang felt a sense of warmth, and his body slowly warmed up as well.
Wu Shan placed part of the charcoal Xiao Yang brought back into the furnace and sure enough, the hall became a little warmer.
"Xiao Yang, why did you go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs early in the morning to take the charcoal fire? You actually didn't even ask me.
Xiao Yang knew that Duan Yunfei was just putting the punishment on hold, how could she bear to punish Xiao Yang? Furthermore, Xiao Yang did it for Duan Yunfei, even if there were no merits, there would be hardships waiting for it.
"Princess, I know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again."
If it was for Duan Yunfei's own good, even if Duan Yunfei really wanted to punish her, she would definitely do so.
At this time, Wu Shan asked about the accident from before.
"Little Thirteen, is your Red Luan Palace playing with the snow today?"
Duan Yunfei was worried that Xiao Yang would not easily let this matter go, so she looked at Wu Shan with a teasing gaze and said, "That's right, Xiao Ya and the other girls have never played in the snow as much as they can before. Today, when it was just starting to snow, I made an exception and allowed them to play once.
"So that's the case. These girls were too careless."
Although Xiao Ya and the others were not in the main hall, Xiao Yang was still worried that Wu Shan would anger them and ruin their good mood to play with the snow, so he spoke up for them.
However, Xiao Yang felt that he was just thinking too much, Wu Shan might just have casually asked that one question. If he thought of this matter as his own, it would be too much of an act.
"Princess, Young Master Wu Shan, Xiao Ya and the others did not do it on purpose, it was also me who came in. It's just a false alarm, don't blame them, Princess. "
"I've never said to blame them, so don't think too much about it." Duan Yunfei glanced at Xiao Yang, and then glanced at Wu Shan. Wu Shan, what do you think? "
It had to be said that Wu Shan didn't mind at all, and this was naturally fake. If it wasn't for the fact that Wu Shan had come in time, the big snowball would have smashed onto Xiao Yang's body on the spot. If this really happened, Wu Shan naturally would not let the perpetrator off the hook so easily.
However, Wu Shan could not reveal his feelings in front of Xiao Yang right now, "That's only natural."
