Chapter 83 Returning to the Capital

Chapter 83 Returning to the Capital

"Ah, don't mention it, the snow and ice are quite slippery."

Feng Xiran, slipping with every step from Feng Ying's place back to her own room, was a bit excited about returning to the capital in a few days. She was curious about what the Crown Princess's residence would be like.

Feeling enthusiastic, Feng Xiran decided to let Xue Chenxi and the others take their time returning to their rooms. She wanted to show off her new ice skates as a final gift to her aunt.

Under the bright sunlight reflecting off the ice and snow, Feng Xiran, in her new red skates, glided around gracefully, spinning and soaring like a little bird. Her vibrant red outfit made her stand out and attracted many admiring glances.

Jing Sa, seeing this, felt a pang of jealousy and wished he could hide her from others.

Feng Yingzhu watched, her mouth agape. There was something quite charming about it, and she wanted to try for herself. However, when she put on Feng Xiran's skates, she found them too slippery to stand on, her legs trembling with each step.

"Aunt, you need to steady yourself!"

After several falls and giving up completely, Feng Xiran had an idea: to form an ice skating team! This wasn't just for show; she thought it might be useful for creating a unit of soldiers that could win by speed. In future battles with Yi Lin, this tactic could allow for rapid attacks or evasions.

The more Feng Xiran thought about this idea, the more she liked it, and she mentioned it to Feng Yingzi.

Feng Xiran and Li Yanchu discussed it: "That's a good idea. Why don't you stay a few more days, Xiran? At least teach these girls to skate well so they can perform rapid maneuvers in combat."

Feng Xiran, being action-oriented, thought that mastering skating would certainly be faster than running.

With this in mind, Feng Xiran challenged Ling Shuang to a race. Ling Shuang ran, while Feng Xiran skated. Feng Xiran shot off like an arrow, spinning around Ling Shuang a few times.

Feng Yingzi and the others watched in awe. Feng Xiran's skating was smoother than the spinning tops the city children played with. They clamored for Feng Xiran to make more skates and teach them.

"Look, Jing Sa knows how to do it. Let him teach you," Feng Xiran said with a smile, pointing to Jing Sa.

Jing Sa smiled indulgently at Feng Xiran and nodded.

He had them prepare the people and materials needed first.

"Do you know how to do this?" Feng Xiran, seeing everyone had left, provocatively smiled at Jing Sa.

Jing Sa raised an eyebrow and tried on Feng Xiran's skates, but they were too small. Instead, he decided to make a pair on the spot using tools.

Feng Xiran was stunned, watching him, and accepted his challenge with a smile.

Jing Sa's casual demeanor actually gave off a relaxed feeling, like he was strolling.

Soon, Feng Yingzi led the group to learn how to make ice skates, while Feng Xiran taught the soldiers how to maintain their balance and use the skates effectively in combat.

By dusk, after sweating through the lesson, Feng Xiran had seen little progress. Jing Sa silently nodded and said, "Let me handle it. You take a rest."

To everyone's surprise, after a few casual instructions from Jing Sa, the previously wobbly soldiers started to skate steadily.
