Chapter 8 Wind and Snow Night

Hans added fuel and vinegar:
"I wanted him to cooperate with the investigation of the disappearance of the badge, but he refused to cooperate. Relying on himself as a magician, he set fire in the middle of the ballroom, almost burning down the palace!"

Boqi was not a fool to become king, he didn't listen to Hans' one-sided words, but called the ministers who attended the ball.

After the minister told the king objectively, the king asked the minister to step down.

King Boqi looked at his eldest son and said coldly: "Did you plant that badge on purpose?!"

Hans was a little flustered, he hesitated: "No...it's not."

"You are simply embarrassing the Principality of Eton! You still want me to ask the magician of Sedar to arrest the prince of the Principality of Cabel because of your personal selfishness. You think that the highly respected magician is used for things like you Is it? Is the head above your neck an ornament?!"

Pochi was not relieved, and continued:
"Although the Principality of Cabel is a little weaker than us, they are our important trading partners. The nearly 3000 million civilians in the two countries will be caught in a war because of your face?"

"Father, how could it be possible to fight because of him? I didn't want to kill him, I just wanted to suppress his momentum." Hans regretted coming to his father.

Bo Qi said: "Childish! Respect is won by one's own ability and status, not by suppressing others! According to today's situation, Izzy is not only the first heir to the Principality of Cabel, but also a talented Magician, if you let King Robert know that his favorite prince has been bullied by us, it will definitely have a great negative impact on the two countries, I should really think about whether to pass the throne to you in the future!"

When Hans heard that his father moved Yi Chu's heart, he was a little flustered: "Father, I was wrong, and I will definitely not be so impulsive in doing things in the future."

Pochi said coldly:
"Hmph, go back and reflect on yourself! Don't bother Prince Yize again. Offending a potential magician won't do you any good!"

"Yes, father." Hans quickly responded obediently.

……

Yize's carriage drove out of the palace and came to the commercial street, and the snow outside was falling more and more.

The shops on both sides of the street are brightly lit, and the fire in the fireplace is burning brightly, emitting an orange light, making it very warm to look at.

"Your Highness, should we hurry up?" Knight Raymond said, he was worried that there would be pursuers coming.

Ize smiled relaxedly, "King Boqi is not as reckless as his son. If there were pursuers, we would have been chased several times at Charlie's speed of driving the carriage."

Charlie said aggrievedly outside the car: "Your Highness, I can't blame this. The snow is too heavy, and the horse's hooves will slip when they run too fast."

"Haha, Charlie, this prince is just kidding you, driving safety comes first."

Cinderella saw that Ize's friendly attitude towards her followers and servants was different from any nobleman she had ever seen before, and she firmly believed that Ize was a good person.

"Are you cold?" Izzy said to Cinderella who was wearing a strapless dress.

Cinderella shook her head quickly, "No, it's not cold. Ah Chi~"

The sound of sneezing betrayed her, Izzy smiled, took off her fluffy cloak and put it on Cinderella, and suddenly there was a warmth and a good smell from Prince Izzy.

"Thank you, but what do you do, Prince?" Cinderella asked warmly.

"You forgot, I'm a magician, I'm not afraid of the cold." Ize said with a smile.

"By the way, Your Highness, stop at the corner ahead. I have to return the dress to the merchant. I rented it." Cinderella suddenly remembered.

"Charlie, stop at the front corner later." Ize said.

"As you order, Your Highness!"

……

It has been snowing all day, and the road is nearly knee-deep in snow.

A little girl in a gray cloth jacket, about seven years old, was carrying a wooden box full of matchboxes.

"Sir, please do me a favor. Let's buy a box of matches. It only costs one copper coin."

"no need."

"Ma'am, it's so cold, buy a box of matches!"

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

... The little girl walked the whole street without even selling a single match. She was cold all over, but she dared not go home. She knew that the drunken mother would beat her violently when she saw her return empty-handed.

Thinking of this, the little girl's heart became colder, so she had to work harder to sell matches.

"Sir, please buy a box of matches!" The little girl begged a strong man.

The man didn't even look at it, and pushed the little girl away with one hand.

The little girl fell on the snow and her butt hurt.

She felt that she was about to freeze, her stomach was so hungry that she almost lost consciousness, and her head began to feel dizzy.

The little girl was too cold. She lit the first match and felt the warmth of the fire. From the light of the fire, she saw a burning fireplace. Disappeared.

So she lit the second match, and she saw a warm room, which was the dining room of grandma's house. On the dining table was a fat turkey stuffed with all kinds of food, which was delicious and tempting.

Just as the little girl stretched out her hand to pull out a chicken leg, the fire went out.

She quickly lit the third match, and the only grandmother who loved her appeared in the light of the fire. When the grandmother was still alive, on such a snowy night, she must have already fallen asleep in her arms.

At this time, grandma was smiling and looking at the little girl kindly. The little girl couldn't wait to hug grandma, but her eyelids were getting heavier and her body was losing strength.

She was about to freeze to death in the snow.

……

Cinderella and Ize came to the dress shop, and Cinderella was about to return the rented dress.

Yi Ze had already given the shopkeeper 20 silver coins to buy the dress.

"You look good in this one, you can choose two more clothes that you usually wear, and you have to change them on the way." Ize said to Cinderella.

"This..." Cinderella's eyes were red, she hadn't felt the love of others for a long time, even if Ize just bought her a few clothes, she was very moved, "Thank you, Your Highness."

"you are welcome."

Under the envious eyes of the clerk, Cinderella picked out three sets of clothes, enough for a change of clothes.

The two of them left the store and were about to get back into the carriage, when Ize suddenly saw a little girl lying in the snow next to the carriage, and beside her were three matchsticks that had just been burnt out.

The first thought in Ize's mind was, is this person the little match seller in the fairy tale?

He remembered that the little girl ended up dying in the snow. It was a tragic story, and he was still sad about it for a long time when he was young.

Without hesitation, Ize immediately stepped forward and shook the girl's shoulder, "Hey, wake up."

The little girl didn't respond, and Ize probed her carotid artery with his fingers. It was cold, but fortunately, there was a weak pulse, and it seemed that she had just passed out.

Ize quickly carried the little girl into the carriage, and shouted to Charlie:

"Charlie, go get a blanket from the back!"
