In the afternoon, Feng Jinghua was sitting alone under the osmanthus tree reading a book, and suddenly a maidservant girl hurriedly ran over and said to her: "Miss, the Sima family sent someone to report that Mr. Sima of Guilingshan is seriously ill and may not survive these three days, and he wants to see the prince." ”

Feng Jinghua stood up and frowned: "Although Mr. Sima is over sixty years old, I heard that he is physically tough, how could he suddenly be seriously ill?"

The maidservant said: "The person who reported to the Sima family said that because Mr. Sima's granddaughter had an accident, Mr. Sima was greatly hit, so he couldn't afford to get sick, and he became terminally ill in just a few months. ”

Feng Jinghua sighed lightly and said, "I know, you go and tell the person who reported the news that the prince is not in the mansion, but I will inform the prince immediately and let the prince rush to visit her." ”

The maidservant took the order and hurried to the door.

As she reached the vestibule, another maid came out from behind the tree, bowing her head slightly, and followed her.

The maidservant didn't notice that someone was following her, and told Feng Jinghua's words to the maid of the Sima family who was waiting in the pavilion in the vestibule.

After hearing this, the servants of the Sima family went back first.

There was silence in the pavilion.

Behind the big tree next to the pavilion, the maid recognized that the servant who came to report the news was indeed a loyal servant of the Sima family, and this loyal servant looked very anxious, looking worried, thinking that Sima Cheng's serious illness would not be fake.

Thinking of Sima Cheng's love and teaching to him, he couldn't help but feel a burst of guilt in his heart: he had left Guiling Mountain for so long and had not sent back any news, and it was not surprising that Mr. Sima had become ill due to worry

He really should go back and check it out

Thinking of this, he walked directly to the gate, took out the token to leave the mansion, and left the underworld.

He made repeated detours, and after walking for a long time, he entered an inn, asked for a room, and shut himself in the room.

It didn't take long for a man with ordinary looks and clothes to come out of the guest room and walk out of the inn calmly, not in the crowd.

No one noticed him.

He hired a carriage to leave the city in time when the gates were closed, and then braved the hazy twilight to run to Guiling Mountain.

In the middle of the night, he finally rushed to the depths of Guiling Mountain and saw Sima Zhai.

Sima Mansion revealed a hazy light, silent, lonely, with a faint sadness, he looked at the familiar house, thought of the Sima family's love for him, subconsciously touched the Adam's apple, and looked at his already tall figure, and smiled slightly bitterly.

A few months have passed, his Adam's apple has begun to be obvious, his voice has begun to become thicker, and his figure is taller than that of women of the same age, although he can still pretend to be a woman, but it is a bit difficult to pretend to be Sima Rong, who is physically ill and weak.

It's time to say goodbye to the identity of "Sima Rong".

However, he still has to continue to pretend to be Sima Rong until the Sima family arranges it.

He was not in Sima Mansion, and Sima Mansion was naturally much less guarded, so he easily climbed the wall and crept through the courtyard.

There were two dogs in the yard, and these two dogs smelled the familiar smell, raised their eyes and swept him a few times, did not bark, closed their eyes and continued to sleep.

He bypassed the servant and flashed into Sima Rong's room, wanting to change into Sima Rong's clothes before appearing in front of everyone.

However, as soon as he entered the door, he sensed the breath of someone else, and that person was lying on the bed.

Who would be lying on Sima Rong's bed so late

He stood in the doorway, not moving, but because he was defenseless, his arm accidentally hit the flower stand by the door, making a sound.

As soon as he wanted to evacuate, a person's voice came from the bed: "Autumn Drift Snow, you are back"

It turned out to be Xia Lili's voice, but what surprised him was not this, but Xia Lili's mouth actually spit out the words "autumn snow".

With the words "autumn snow", he was told to restrain his feet that were about to rush out, and quickly closed the door and closed it tightly.

Then, he rushed to the side of the bed, grabbed Xia Lili, who had already gotten up, and covered her hand with one hand.

Although the room was dark, Xia Lili was obviously very excited, she didn't struggle, just obediently let him hold her hostage, and even took the initiative to lean into his arms, her chest rose and fell very much, her breathing was very short, and her body trembled slightly.

He couldn't figure out why she was so excited and seemed to stop breathing at any moment and faint.

"Don't make any noise, or I'll kill you," he whispered in a man's voice, in her ear, "nodding if you understand." ”

Xia Lili nodded vigorously.

He let go of the hand that was covering Xia Lili's mouth, and asked in a low voice, "Who are you and why are you here?"

He actually wanted to ask questions like "why do you call me Qiu Liuxue", but this name is taboo, and he can't be in a hurry, so he pretends to be confused, and intends to ask on the side.

Xia Lili was still panting violently, and after a while, she said in a trembling voice: "I am Qiu Liuxue's fiancée Xia Lili." I'm here to wait for the autumn snow to come back. ”

Her body was so hot that it was like she had a high fever, which made him faintly frightened.

What surprised him even more was that she actually spoke so bluntly and without scruples.

He was stunned for a long time before he said in a ruthless tone: "Who is Qiu Liuxue, what are you waiting for him to do?"

Xia Lili said: "Qiu Liuxue is the seventh prince of Shangguo. I have been engaged to him since I was a child. He disappeared five years ago, and although everyone said he was dead, I never believed him, and I waited for him to come back. And now, I know he's alive and will come back sooner or later, so I often stay here and wait for him to come back. ”

As she spoke, her tears fell and fell on his hands.

He never imagined that Xia Lili would confess at such a time, and he didn't know how to react for a while.

After a while, he said again: "Are you talking about dreams idiotically, or are you impatient to live Qiu Liuxue has long since died, is it that you can't tolerate the existence of the world, are you shouting so much, do you want to send yourself and Taoli Hou to a dead end?"

If she shouts stupid things like Qiu Liuxue is still alive and is in Sima's mansion, let Qiu Yexian listen to it, the whole Sima family and the whole family of Taoli Hou will suffer

He would never let her spread the word about it

"He's not dead" Xia Lili shouted excitedly, "I obviously saw him, I know he's still alive, you are"

She screamed so loudly that he quickly covered her mouth.

Fortunately, the mountain wind was howling, and it was still beating on the window lattice, suppressing her voice.

"Shut up," he roared in a low voice, "Do you want everyone to hear and kill Sima's entire family?"

Xia Lili's body stiffened, and she tried her best to control her excitement to the point of almost losing control, but tears kept falling.

He just wrapped one hand around her upper body and covered her mouth with the other, maintaining this position.

She was very excited, crying silently, and he was at a loss, a little unsure of how to deal with this sudden and almost turbulent change, and could only stand like this.

In such darkness, dead silence, and stalemate, the past and memories swept and swallowed them like a flood that burst its banks.

Whether they are a distant cousin and a cousin, or a doll kiss who has been married by the emperor.

His mother is Xia Guifei, and her father is Taoli Hou Xia Muze, Xia Guifei and Xia Muze are cousins, because they lived in a big mansion with four generations when they were children, and their feelings were extremely affectionate.

Xia Guifei and Princess Kangping were pregnant in the same year and gave birth in the same month, Xia Guifei gave birth to him, Princess Kangping gave birth to her, and he was only one day older than her
