Chapter 47

 As Yan Yu had delivered the lantern, he wanted to hurry back to prepare for his departure to Dong country, I tried to keep him for a while, but he persisted in wanting to leave, so I acceded. Before he left, he urged me saying that since the Empress is not in a good mood, I should indulge her and give in to her. I really wanted to bury my head in the snow.

After Yan Yu's departure, the day of the Spring festival arrived, the festival was held at night, but that day was a national vacation, so I did not have to get up early and could sleep in. When I woke up, I saw that it was snowing again, but it stopped and melted away shortly after. Not long after, it started snowing again, quite heavily too, I was bewildered.

Wu Min Jun was not surprised and explained that this was probably the last snowfall, it seemed heavy, but the snow was very light, so will not accumulate much, and would probably melt by tomorrow, once hit by the sun.

I didn't know as much as Wu Min Jun when it comes to Xi country, so I could only express understanding, but it's snowing so there will be more to play with during this Spring festival.

The matter with Yan Yu made me very unhappy, but after he left, Wu Min Jun was back to his normal self laughing and joking around like usual, I didn't see any of the annoyance or irritation from that day. Thinking about it, he must have recalled the memory of Yan Yu's kiss and must have been annoyed because of that.

I mentioned this to Wu Min Jun, and he flashed me a smile shrouded in obscurity and then started laughing, I felt a bit apprehensive.

Then I remembered that in this world there was also a word called 'Jealousy'.

However, Wu Min Jun being jealous was really hard to imagine, especially regarding us two people - me and Yan Yu.

I dared not think too much.

Waiting for the evening time for the Spring festival to start, Wu Min Jun and I were idle and the snow had not piled up enough. Also, after the last time playing in the snow, Wu Min Jun seemed to have lost interest in it, it will be useless to force it again.

So, Wu Min Jun invented a game, and both of us sit face-to-face, one person will think of something in their mind and the other has to ask questions to guess it. The questions can only be answered with a 'yes' or 'no' and use the answers to guess the answer. The winner of the game can ask the other for one thing.

After thinking about it, I agreed and told Wu Min Jun to start first.

"Is it a human?"

"Yes."

"Is it a man?"

"No."

"Is it a woman?"

"No."

"..."

...I paused, and then I asked: "Is it a palace eunuch?"

"No."

I was more puzzled: "Is it a person I know?"

"No."

It's not a man or woman, also not an eunuch?!

Where did he know this person from?... I was puzzled.

"I admit defeat ...Who is this person?"

Wu Min Jun lightly said: "Are we not in front of each other?"

I: "..."

I said: "How can say that? You are a man, I am a woman, this is clear."

Wu Min Jun pointed at me and said: "But this body is male, but inside there is a woman. My body is female but inside there is a man, as to what the sex is, who can say it is clear?"

Then he raised an eyebrow at me: "Princess Changyi, are you expensive?"

I: "..."

Wu Min Jun made sense so I could not refute his reasoning, and could only warily ask: "Fine, what do you want me to do?"

Wu Min Jun laid down on the bed, slowly turning his back to me: "Help me rub my shoulders."

I said: "You can definitely ask the servants to help..."

Putting out my hands, accepting my fate, rubbed his shoulders, thinking up something that will also be hard for him to guess.

After a while, Wu Min Jun said it was enough, then got up and we sat face-to-face, this time it was Wu Min Jun's turn to guess

"Is it human?"

"No."

"Is it an animal?"

"...Yes."

"Oh, my black horse."

"........."

"How did you guess it?!"I was taken aback, "This was also too quick!"

Wu Min Jun lightly replied: "It was too simple, I asked you about a person, you will definitely choose something else. Since it is an animal, the animals you are familiar with are few, so it could only be my black horse...too easy to guess."

I was speechless: "Well, what you do want me to do?"

Wu Min Jun slowly stretched out on the bed back to me again: "Pound my legs for me."

Putting out my hands, I once again accepted my fate and began to softly pound his legs. After a while, he was satisfied and we continued to play.

I asked: "Is it human?"

Wu Min Jun: "Doesn't count."

Doesn't count?!

I trembled and asked: "That ...Is it a ghost?"

Wu Min Jun: "No."

"...It's not a ghost?"

"It's not."

"Is it an animal?"

"No."

"Flowers, plants, trees?"

"No."

"Fish, insect, birds?"

"No."

I was speechless: "None of those, what is it?"

Wu Min Jun asked: "Do you admit defeat?"

I thought and asked: "That thing, is it alive?"

Wu Min Jun: "Yes."

I really could not guess: "I admit defeat, what is it?"

Wu Min Jun smiled, and said: "It is the child in Pingyang's stomach."

I: "..."

This was also too cunning! Who would think of that...?

I said: "This time, where do you want me to help you massage?"

I really wished he would ask me to help him massage his head.

Wu Min Jun: "First, go outside with me."

I was puzzled and went outside with him, Wu Min Jun looked left and right, finally stopped and said: "Dig a hole here."

I got angry: "You want me to barehandedly dig a hole?!"

Wu Min Jun: "Certainly not with bare hands...look for something to use to dig, then cover it with grass and some snow."

I looked at the sky that was still raining down big flakes of snow, I didn't want to argue, so I only said: "Even if I dig it now, after a while it will be filled in with the snow."

Wu Min Jun became pensive, then said: "That is also true...Oh, you put some water in there, first dig a small hole."

I was willing to gamble and so must accept my loss, I could only get a shovel and start digging the small but deep hole, and then went to get the water from the lotus pond, at the beginning, Wu Min Jun was leisurely watching me, then seeing I was very tired, he came to help...I really don't know what he wants to do with this...
