Chapter 35 Seeing the Old Man's Tears in His Eyes
This is naturally also in Shen Xing's plan.
In fact, when Sima Ji was born, he had a cyan birthmark on his back, in addition to his appearance, this birthmark is one of the strong evidence to prove his identity, but Yi Xue, who is a twin son, did not.
Shen Xing also heard Sima Jing mention it by chance, and kept it in his mind, but he didn't expect it to come in handy today and turn the tide of the situation.
It's just that it's bitter, and spring is shining in front of everyone, only Sima Jing and Shen Xing know her true identity, even if Sima Cheng learns about it afterwards, he will only think that it is the man Sima Ji, and he won't take it to heart.
Sima Cheng was stunned for a moment when he saw the willow-waisted jade back of the small body kneeling underneath like this, and then turned his head away, not looking at her.
Sima Jing also remembered the birthmark in an instant, and frowned slightly, but finally stretched out.
And the most embarrassing ones are Sima Lie and Yu Feng.
When Yi Xue was brought in, her face was covered with soot, and she didn't look real, and she was still a woman, and the most important thing was that she didn't have a birthmark on her back! This whipped Sima Lie's arrogance fiercely, and he was instantly arrogant, and he had no heart to investigate the problem of appearance.
If Shen Xing was looking for someone to fool him, he could easily expose his lies by asking if there was a new girl in King Jing's Mansion today, but Shen Xing acted carefully, so he was afraid that Yang Hui would bring back this person, and it would be a yellow-haired girl!
Sima Lie angrily slapped the wooden table, and even shook the plate on the table.
And Yu Feng, who asked Sima Lie to come to Xingshi to ask for the guilt, was also dumbfounded, he obviously got the exact news, and Qifeng Town was the place where Sima Ji was attacked, he was sure that there was only one possibility for Yang Wei to hurry here - that is, to bring Sima Ji back. Who knew that when I arrived at King Jing's Mansion, it was such a scene.
Sima Lie glared at Yu Feng fiercely, Yu Feng quickly lowered his head, and the two of them didn't say a word, so they had to end hastily and leave King Jing's mansion stupidly.
When the two of them walked away, Shen Xing hurriedly picked up Yi Xue and took her down to change clothes.
Sima Jing also breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the delicacies on the table, and when he ate them, he felt tasteless.
Shen Xing's method is indeed once and for all, but it is out of character, except for Sima Cheng, although all of you here are people of the uncle's generation, it is really ...... I'm sorry for the daughter's house.
Sima Cheng's gaze followed Yi Xue until he couldn't see her, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.
After a while, Shen Xing brought Yi Xue back to the dining hall after being dressed and groomed.
Although the clothes have been changed and the soot on his face has been washed, his hair has not had time to be redressed, so the messy sideburns are still placed behind his ears casually, but Sima Cheng still recognized this as "Sima Ji" at a glance, and couldn't help but chuckle.
At that time just now, Shen Xing hurriedly brought people to the dining hall, most of them were using a trick of stealing beams and replacing pillars, and most of that person was Sima Ji, when Shen Xing said "it's a girl", he hesitated, but now that he thought about it, he just saw the person's willow waist and jade back, he used to think that Sima Ji was thin and short, mostly because he couldn't eat enough in the people, but he didn't expect that under the coarse clothes and linen there were such jade bones and ice muscles, like a woman.
However, this plan of disguising a man as a woman at the bottom of the kettle is estimated to be something that Shen Xing, a person who does not protect his fine line, can come up with it, Sima Cheng sighed, but he didn't know that he was the only one who was in the dark.
Seeing Sima Cheng chuckling and sighing, Yi Xue thought she was laughing at her, but when she thought of the scene just now, her cheeks couldn't help but turn crimson, and the prince's demeanor was gone, showing her shyness.
Seeing this, Shen Xing was afraid that Sima Cheng would see the clue, so he hurriedly asked Yi Xue for guilt and said:
"It's really helpless for Weichen's actions just now, and I ask Your Highness to forgive me." After speaking, he bowed at the feet of the snow.
Knowing that she was a princess and deserved not to bear such a big gift, but she still did enough drama in front of Sima Cheng, Yi Xue came back to her senses and remembered that her current identity was Sima Ji, a man, and a man's bare chest and breasts were not worth mentioning, she couldn't help but sigh secretly, feeling that her next thorny road was far away.
Later, Sima Jing also blamed Shen Xing, but it was only a few words, and there was no substantive punishment.
Yi Xue also expressed her understanding, Shen Xing was able to come up with such a clever plan in such a short period of time, which was actually a great achievement, and King Jing's willingness to earn a verbal sigh for her was actually to feel sorry for her from the bottom of his heart, what else could she complain about.
Thinking about it like this, Yi Xue couldn't help but feel a little more grateful to Sima Jing and a little more admiration for Shen Xing.
After this incident, everyone in the palace knew that there was a new servant, so Shen Xing pushed the boat down the river, let Yi Xue continue to wear the servant's clothes, and let her pretend to be Sima Cheng's attendant, after that, if Yi Xue ate with the prince, it was okay to go to the prince's study to discuss things, directly in the name of Sima Cheng, she could walk around the mansion freely.
Sima Jing felt wronged by Yi Xue, but Yi Xue didn't think so, although the chest wrap still had to be used every day, but the coarse cloth clothes in this life made her feel comfortable, and Sima Cheng would not really call her as a person, she was still the master, and Yi Xue would move into Sima Cheng's yard in the future.
For the next two days, the snow was relatively comfortable. In the morning, Sima Cheng practiced martial arts, so she could sleep late, and then the two had breakfast together in the courtyard, and then Yi Xue followed him to see Prince Jing or Shen Xing, and listened to them talk about the situation in the current dynasty, familiar with the official system of the Dayu court, and understand the relationship between the family and courtiers. These things are new to Yi Xue, and she naturally enjoys them.
In the house, Sima Cheng is the master, and Yi Xue is the servant. But when the door was closed, Sima Cheng was a servant, humble and obedient to Yi Xue, and never transgressed his identity.
However, what made Yi Xue feel strange was that in the past few days of living in Sima Cheng's courtyard, there seemed to be only two of them in such a large courtyard, and neither the maid nor the subordinates had seen it.
Today is the 11th day of the seventh month, and it is also the fourth day that Yixue came to the palace.
That night, Sima Jing suddenly asked her to carve to the side room in Sima Cheng's courtyard.
Sima Jing screamed suddenly, and Yi Xue hurriedly got dressed, and was still sorting out her neckline when she ran across the corridor. She had no intention of glancing, and saw Sima Cheng's slender lonely shadow standing quietly upright in the courtyard, compared to her panic at the moment, he could be so calm at any time.
Yi Xue didn't think much about it, knocked lightly, and pushed open the door of the side room after getting the lead, only to see that Sima Jing in the house had already sat down, Shen Xing was on the side, and there were two people sitting on the left hand side of King Jing, looking at the back, they all bowed slightly, feeling old, one of them was combing her hair in a bun, it should be an old woman.
Yi Xue pushed the door in, and the two turned their heads one after another, and the three of them looked at each other.
The woman was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly got up, and the people next to her also stood up.
Her eyes widened, she recognized the old woman, and hurriedly rushed forward, grabbing the old woman's hand. The old woman trembled and raised her rough hand, gently stroked Xue Xue's cheek, and the moment she touched it, her tears spurted out, and she whispered:
"Aunt Ning."
The other person next to him also burst into tears, "plopped", knelt in front of Yi Xue, and solemnly kowtowed to her. His voice was choked and trembling, and he was extremely respectful.
"Old slave, see Her Royal Highness Princess Yi."
