Chapter 383
After Shangguan Ziling and his group finished their dinner, they returned to their rooms to rest. Shangguan Ziling lay on the bed and chatted with the fat boy. The two chatted happily until the middle of the night. Shangguan Ziling's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she finally fell asleep in a daze.
When she woke up again, it was already noon. The sunlight shone through the window onto the floor, forming a golden spot.
Shangguan Ziling rubbed her sleepy eyes, sat up, got out of bed, put on her clothes, and opened the door.
Qiu Kui was just about to knock on the door, but when he saw her coming out, he quickly stepped back and asked respectfully, "Master, you are awake. Go wash up and go downstairs for lunch."
Shangguan Ziling nodded.
After washing, Qiu Kui helped Shangguan Ziling comb her hair. Her technique was skillful and gentle, and soon, Shangguan Ziling's hair was combed neatly and tied into an elegant bun.
After combing her hair, Shangguan Ziling walked out of the room and came to the lobby on the first floor of the inn.
Beichen Xue had been sitting at the dining table waiting for a long time.
When Beichen Xue saw Shangguan Ziling coming, she immediately waved to her to sit down.
"Zi Ling, come here quickly. We ordered all your favorite dishes." Beichen Xue said with a smile.
Shangguan Ziling walked over and sat down. Looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, her appetite suddenly increased.
"Mom." Shangguan Ziling called out with a smile.
Beichenxue smiled lovingly, "Hey! Ziling, eat more. You are a double body now, so you need to eat more nutrition."
Shangguan Ziling hummed softly and began to enjoy the food.
Her chopsticks moved between the dishes, tasting each one.
"Mom, you should try this too." Shangguan Ziling picked up a piece of tender pork ribs and put it in Beichen Xue's bowl.
Beichen Xue picked it up, took a bite, and praised: "Hmm, not bad."
After lunch, Shangguan Ziling stood up and prepared to leave.
Beichenxue looked at her and asked with concern: "Zi Ling, how is your health?"
Shangguan Ziling smiled and shook her head, saying, "Don't worry, mother, I'm fine."
Beichenxue felt relieved after hearing her words.
The secret guards had already purchased a carriage, Qiu Kui bought a quilt to spread here, and Shangguan Ziling and Beichen Xue got on the carriage.
The group started on their journey again.
After another long month, the group finally arrived at Snow City, the capital of the northern country.
Snow City, this ancient city located in the north, is like a shining pearl inlaid in the snow-covered land.
When they entered the Snow City, the first thing that caught their eyes was the towering city wall. The city wall was solid and majestic, as if telling a thousand-year story. On the city wall, soldiers patrolled, their armor gleaming in the sun, showing the might and glory of the Snow City.
The streets in the city are spacious and clean, and the buildings on both sides are staggered, simple and elegant.
The roofs were covered with thick white snow, adding a sense of tranquility and solemnity to the city. The streets were crowded with people, cars and people, and the hawking of various vendors was heard one after another, forming a busy and vibrant picture.
There was a chill in the air, but people's enthusiasm remained undiminished.
They were wearing thick cotton coats, hats and gloves, and their faces were full of smiles.
The children were playing in the snow, their laughter echoing in the quiet winter day, bringing a touch of warmth and vitality to the city.
Snow City has a unique architectural style that combines traditional northern features with foreign cultural elements.
From a distance you can see the tall palace standing in the city, magnificent and majestic.
Shangguan Ziling stood on the street of Snow City, looking up at the towering mountains in the distance, her heart filled with admiration. "Mom, the North Country is so beautiful!" she couldn't help but say.
Beichen Xue smiled at her daughter, her eyes full of doting. "Of course, the beauty of the North Country is world-famous, and the North Mountain is the most beautiful." She stroked Shangguan Ziling's hair and said gently.
"Mother, that mountain range in the distance, is that the North Mountain you mentioned?" Shangguan Ziling pointed to the distance.
"Well, that's Beishan. It looks very close, but it's actually quite some distance away," Beichen Xue said with a smile.
Shangguan Ziling looked from afar and saw the mountain peaks towering into the clouds, as if reaching the sky. The snow on the snow-capped mountains was thick, as if covered with a layer of silver, shining brightly in the sun.
"Mom, now that you mention it, I really want to go to Beishan to take a look," Shangguan Ziling asked excitedly.
Beichen Xue looked at her curious eyes and couldn't help but laugh. She knew that climbing to the top of Beishan Mountain was not easy and required a lot of physical strength and time. Moreover, Shangguan Ziling was pregnant now, so she needed to be more cautious.
"mother?"
Beichen Xue looked at her expectant eyes and said, "Mom will take you to the top of the mountain in the future. You are still pregnant now, and it is not easy to go up Beishan Mountain." She said, "Also, we have to go to the palace to see your grandfather first."
Shangguan Ziling cheered immediately after hearing her words. She held Beichenxue's hand tightly and said, "Yes, mother, I know. When grandpa is well, mother will take her to Beishan to see him."
Beichen Xue said lovingly: "Okay, when the time comes, just don't complain of being tired. However, when you stand on the top of Beishan Mountain and overlook the entire Snow City and the mountains in the distance, you will feel extremely shocked."
Shangguan Ziling was very much looking forward to it when she heard it.
Beichen Xue gently tapped Shangguan Ziling's nose, and a gentle smile appeared on her lips. "Okay, we have been traveling for such a long time, let's find a place to settle down first, and when I contact your uncle, we will go to the palace. Now I will take you to a place to eat delicious food, which I guarantee Ziling has never eaten before."
Shangguan Ziling listened to her words and looked at Beichen Xue curiously: "Mom, what's delicious?"
Beichen Xue kept her in suspense and didn't tell her the answer directly, "Zi Ling will know when she goes there." She said mysteriously.
When they arrived at that place, Shangguan Ziling was attracted by the scene before her.
I saw an antique shop located next to a busy street. There was a red sign hanging at the door with three big words "Hot Pot Restaurant" written on it.
Shangguan Ziling looked at the sign and her heart was stirred, "Hot pot restaurant?" Is there really someone in the North who has traveled from the modern era like her?
Beichen Xue noticed that Shangguan Ziling was acting strange. She gently pulled Shangguan Ziling's hand and asked softly, "What's wrong, Ziling?"
Shangguan Ziling came back to her senses, shook her head, and tried to sound calm, "Nothing, I'm just curious about the name. By the way, mom, who opened this hot pot restaurant? The name is also very strange."
Beichen Xue frowned after hearing her words and said, "This is King Lingxiao's property, but this hot pot is really delicious, especially in winter, it is very popular among northerners."
"Silly boy, this is the delicious food that mother said. Let's go in." Beichen Xue continued.
Shangguan Ziling listened to her and nodded. She followed Beichen Xue into the hot pot restaurant. A rich aroma hit her face, making her stomach rumble immediately.
The familiar smell made Shangguan Ziling certain that this King Lingxiao must be a time traveler like herself.
They sat near the window and could see the street view outside.
