Chapter 388: Snow Girl's Life
Cheng Jiao asked, "Brother Guo, doesn't Yafei have many students? Why are you making such a fuss?"

Guo Kai waved his wine glass, "Brother, you don't know, those students are just using their names to curry favor with others, they don't have much talent at all. You know, if Zhao Wu wants to achieve something, he must practice from a young age. Ya Fei has many students, but none of them are her direct disciples. Oh, I remember, Ya Fei's student is her!"

Cheng Jiao thought about it. When he was in Xianyang, he asked Zhao Jia about Xue Nu and knew that Xue Nu was studying with Ya Fei at that time.

According to Guo Kai's words, he had already guessed who was performing the dance.

Throughout the Qin Dynasty, if Xue Nu failed to meet the requirements to become Ya Fei's personal student, he would tie Ya Fei up and take her to Xianyang to make her dance.

"I was in Xianyang and heard Master Zhao Jia mention that Miss Ya Fei accepted a student named Xue Nu, who was the descendant of a ruined noble family. But that's the case."

Guo Kai: "Oh, so her name is Xue Nu, which must be a stage name. This matter is somewhat related to the queen."

Cheng Jiao's mouth twitched. Could the Snow Girl be the illegitimate daughter of the Queen Chang or something? Don't be so ridiculous.

"Fifteen years ago, auspicious snow fell on the occasion of the queen's 100th day of giving birth to a son. The father of this snow girl was the commander of the guards in the palace of the great king. He was ordered to escort the queen to the palace to meet the late king. Unexpectedly, the horses slipped on the ice and stones on the street, and the queen and the prince almost fell off the carriage. The king was furious and ordered the execution of the commander."

"Misfortune has come from the sky."

Cheng Jiao suddenly remembered that in the original novel, the Snow Girl had sworn that she would never marry again for the rest of her life.

Could it be that the Snow Girl had been married before? Who could this person be?
Guo Kai smiled and said, "It was indeed a sudden disaster, but it was also a good thing. At least Zhao Jia's mother, who was still alive at the time, begged for mercy, and the family was not affected. A few years ago, after Xue Nu's mother passed away, she was accepted as a student by Ya Fei. And Xue Nu's mother seems to be an old acquaintance of Zhao Jia's mother. I don't know the details."

Cheng Jiao joked, "I didn't expect that Brother Guo knew these street slangs so well."

Guo Kai smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, please don't make fun of me. It was my disappointing student who did it. A few days ago, he said he saw a woman with long white hair and natural blue eyes. He was so stunning that he wanted to marry her. For his safety, I had to investigate."

Cheng Jiao's mind was moved: "Brother, you also have students? But is it the current Prince Qian of Zhao?"

Guo Kai said: "Yes, this child is very smart, but he doesn't study hard, which makes me get scolded by the king every day."

Cheng Jiao thought to himself, King Yan of Zhao is really generous. Letting Guo Kai take care of the child, it would be strange if he didn't have all five evil spirits.

Having said that, if he hadn't appeared, wouldn't the Snow Girl have really been tricked by Guo Kai and had to marry that guy, right?

Oh my god, I can’t stand this!

……

Ya Fei came to the side of the Snow Girl and said with a gentle smile: "Don't be nervous, put on the dance costume I designed for you, and then you can go on stage."

The Snow Girl blinked her azure eyes and said, "Sister Yafei, don't worry, my Zhao Wu is only slightly worse than yours now."

Ya Fei picked up the tracing pen and carefully traced and touched up Xue Nu's makeup.

"Zhao Qian came again yesterday?"

The Snow Girl sat down, "Well, he left before I came out."

Ya Fei put down the pen and snorted, "Next time I see him, I will break his legs! He is so naughty at such a young age, hanging out with those scoundrels all day, and even setting his sights on you."

Snow Girl advised: "Sister Yafei, forget it. He is the crown prince now. If he succeeds to the throne, it will be disadvantageous to us."

Ya Fei frowned and said, "Zhao Jia didn't even try to fight for it, wasting my kindness. Now he has gone to Qin State, and I don't know what his situation will be like. If the king really passes the throne to Zhao Qian, you should leave Zhao State. As for my safety, you don't have to worry about it."

Snow Girl nodded gently: "By the way, Sister Yafei, I heard from the girls in the pavilion that the Qin State Chang'an Jun arrived in Handan, and the king personally went to greet him."

Ya Fei smiled and said, "I know, and that Chang'an Jun is on the stage. I will go and ask for news about Zhao Jia."

The Snow Girl half-closed her eyes and said nothing more. She waited quietly for the time to prepare to go on stage.

This was her first time to dance in public, and it was very important because it affected her future development. She also wanted to become a world-famous dancer like Ya Fei.

Watching Yafei leave, Xue Nu held the silver hairpin and gently inserted it into her white hair.

Looking at his stunning beauty in the bronze mirror, his eyes were blank.

On the one hand, her father was executed by King Zhao, and on the other hand, she and her mother were able to escape disaster thanks to the help of Concubine Ya and Zhao Jia's mother.

She is alive and well thanks to Yafei's care.

She thought of her mother, who before she died, held her hand and told her never to think about revenge and to live well.

When the time came, the Snow Girl took a deep breath and took off the silver hairpin from her hair.

Decided to say goodbye to the past and obey my mother's will.

Just be a world-famous dancer and forget about assassinating the king.

……

Guo Kai saw that Cheng Jiao practiced Tai Chi without revealing anything and did not utter a word on some key points.

He didn't realize that he had underestimated this guy. He was thinking about giving him some gold, silver, treasures, beautiful concubines, etc.

"Brother Cheng Jiao, I see that you are quite knowledgeable about beauties. I wonder which type you like best?"

Cheng Jiao looked at the stage surrounded by a clear pond and decorated with flowers, and said with a smile: "At this time and place, it must be a person with unparalleled dancing skills and beauty."

Seeing Ya Fei walking towards them, Guo Kai smiled and said, "My dear brother, you have high standards. If you want, I can help you to mention it to the king. Miss Ya Fei has not married yet, which is also a concern of the king. However, I have to say that you can just let fate take its course."

The incense on the wooden table on the stage is about to burn out.

Cheng Jiao was too lazy to explain, "The Snow Girl is about to appear."

Ya Fei chuckled and said, "It seems that Chang'an Jun is looking forward to the appearance of the Snow Girl."

He sat down very naturally, his clear eyes fixed on Cheng Jiao, ignoring Guo Kai standing beside him.

Guo Kai was playing with the cup. He had already guessed what Ya Fei was here to do.

He didn't care at all about Ya Fei's disregard and was lucky enough not to kick him out in front of Cheng Jiao.

"Of course, from what Brother Guo said, it must be extraordinary to have Miss Yafei come out in person to praise him."

When Yafei heard Cheng Jiao calling him "Brother Guo" all the time, she became annoyed with him.

"I came here to ask Master Cheng Jiao about someone. I hope you can tell me."

She was a straightforward woman and had no patience for Cheng Jiao who was hanging out with Guo Kai.

The incense on the wooden table on the stage burned out.

"Miss Yafei wants to ask about Brother Jia, right?"

Ya Fei said: "Yes, I am his aunt. Although there is only a seven or eight year difference, I watched him grow up. I hope you can tell me."
