Although it looked like there was no one on the street, it was hard to avoid feeling uneasy.
"What's there to be afraid of? My people are following. If there's anything wrong, they'll warn you." Xie Jing Xing said.
In the time that Shen Miao was distracted, Xie Jing Xing had already tied the scarf on her face, revealing only a pair of eyes. Her eyes were round and watery, the black and white of her eyes distinct and clear. Under the dim light of the lantern, she looked even more adorable. Xie Jing Xing helped her put on the hat and raised his eyebrows, "Not bad."
In order to avoid complications, Shen Miao finally found a set of manservant's clothes to wear. The hat was somewhat inappropriate as it often covered her eyes. It was just that she had forgotten to bring her cloak when she came out. Xie Jing Xing looked at her for a moment before covering Shen Miao with his cloak and said, "Let's go."
"Just like that?" Shen Miao was extremely surprised.
"The East of the city is not far." Xie Jing Xing disapprovingly said, "It is also good to walk around. You have not seen the Ding capital at night right?"
Shen Miao was silent.
Most of the nights that she had seen were within the square Palace walls of Ming Qi. Sometimes she would sit in the huge Kun Ning Palace and think about the annoying matters in the Inner Palace. Once she sat, it would be the entire night. Sometimes she would go to the Imperial Garden to stroll and see Fu Xiu Yi and different beauties talking and laughing.
As the head of the six palaces, it seemed that her nights were like one night for ten years, lonely, unfree, cold, and unnoticed by others.
She had also regretted and envied the carefree life outside the palace.
Xie Jing Xing said, "No one here sees you and knows you. Do what you want to do."
Shen Miao looked at the other person's handsome brows and suddenly felt some envy in her heart.
Speaking of which, Xie Jing Xing was able to live till now, he was the Little Marquis of the residence of the Marquis of Lin An and also the younger brother of the Great Liang's Emperor Yong Le, Prince Rui. Everyone could only see the glory on the surface, but the things that he carried were definitely not lesser than Shen Miao. However, his prideful and arrogant nature seemed to have never changed. Nothing external could change his strength. It was as if no matter how the sun and moon changed and how the stars moved, he would still stand there in an unshakable manner. One could only look up to him.
Shen Miao envied people with strong hearts. She felt that she was not as strong as Xie Jing Xing because she would occasionally think of Wan Yu and Fu Ming and the various things in the past lifetime and would feel tired.
Xie Jing Xing's eyes were sharp as he pinched her chin and asked, "What is wrong with you?"
Shen Miao broke free from his hand and turned her head, "Nothing." She did not want others to know the emotions in her heart, so she turned and walked two steps but she was not used to wearing a man's boots and the ground was slippery because of the ice, so she almost fell down. Luckily Xie Jing Xing grabbed her arm and frowned as he reprimanded, "Be careful." But the hand in his sleeves slid down and grabbed Shen Miao's hand.
His hand was slender and cold but it was just nice to wrap Shen Miao's hand in his palm. Shen Miao's heart moved and subconsciously wanted to break free but she did not expect that Xie Jing Xing's grip was so tight that she was unable to break free.
Xie Jing Xing said faintly, "I will hold you so that you will not slip."
"I will be careful and not slip." Shen Miao said.
"Then I'm afraid I'll slip. You hold my hand," he continued without even frowning.
Shen Miao, "…"
Heavy snow covered the entire street and it was as if the street was silvery white and the lanterns reflected the lovely rain and snow. Shen Miao would look up at the sky from time to time. The sky was very good and very spacious, much better looking than the squarish sky. The street was very quiet and no one would discover her. Some wishes that were not fulfilled in her previous lifetime were fulfilled at this moment. Her palm, which was held by the young man beside her, was slightly damp, but a smile gradually appeared on her face.
