The winter in the Forbidden City always comes very early, with the full moon hanging high. On the silent corridor outside Chengqian Palace, a girl like a pink carved jade sat in front of the palace gate, with a charcoal basin next to her. Her two little hands stretched toward the charcoal basin from time to time, but she always quickly retracted her sleeves when the flames "splitting". "What are you doing here alone, aren't it cold?"

The one who made a sound was a pretty boy in his teens holding a thick stack of books in his hands, with a fair face and a small body standing straight. The girl looked up at him, "You are alone, why are you doing here?"

The boy patted the book in his hand, "Master Tomorrow wants to write silently. I haven't recited it for a while yet. I'm hungry again, so I'll come out for a walk and have some breathing." The girl pointed to the stone steps beside her: "Sit here to watch, it's warm." She grabbed a handful of chestnuts from her pocket and threw them into the carbon basin, making a "pa" sound, "It's okay to eat it when roasting, my mother used to roast it like this."

Boy: "Hehe, you haven't answered yet, why are you here alone?"

The girl pouted, "I'm waiting for my aunt. Concubine Nian sent her to the aunt at noon, but she hasn't come back yet." The boy looked up at the palace plaque: "Chengqian Palace? Your aunt is a noble man Qian, right? Don't worry, maybe Concubine Nian left her to beat horses and hang them. The empresses in the palace love to beat horses and hang them."

Nuwa: "Well, what books did you read?" "It's Li Bai's collection of poems. My mother likes it. I want to recite it to her. What about you? What books did you read?" Nuwa shook her head: "I can't read, and my aunt often says, 'A woman has no talent and virtue.' When she read too much, her heart will become wild. But... I really want to read. I think she understands it like my mother. She understands everything."

"Then... I can teach you how to read it secretly. Let's start with this poem!" The girl clapped and said, "I'm so good!" "The man came riding a bamboo horse, circling the bed and playing with green plums, living together in Changganli, and the two children were fine... This poem tells the story of a boy and a girl riding a bamboo horse together since childhood and growing up together."

There was a loud "bang" sound in the charcoal basin. The boy raised his little hand and blocked the girl's face. The sparks that popped out of the basin splashed into his cuff and burned a small hole. The girl grabbed his hand: "No, your clothes are torn. When you go back, your mother will say you." The boy: "It doesn't matter, my mother loves me very much." Then he found a branch and pulled out the chestnuts that were already burning red in the charcoal basin, "Come on, eat..." "Yes! It's so hot!"

Boy: "Silly girl, this kind of thing should be done by men!" "Oh, my little ancestor, brother, you are here. Concubine Xi came to the prince and didn't see you, so anxious!" Several little eunuchs came to us in a noisy way. The boy pursed his lips and looked very helpless: "I'm going back, I'll teach you if I'm free."

"Yeah!" When I walked to the corner of the corridor, the boy suddenly remembered something and shouted to the girl: "My name is Hongli! What's your name?" The girl also stood up and responded, "Yutang, Guarja Yutang!" "I remember, see you another day!"
