Chapter 361: Encounter with the White Emperor
"My ......" Yi Xue was shocked.
At that time, except for Lu Yizhi, who came up with the idea, even Murong Tian and Yi Xue didn't mention it too much, but now she was suddenly asked by Jiang Gonggong, and she was afraid that Jiang Gonggong would see through it, so she didn't dare to think about it, so she said nonsense.
"Yes...... It was Sima Cheng who asked me, he didn't want to marry Murong Wan'er. “
Yi Xue finally spoke hesitantly, but as soon as the words fell, she regretted it, in fact, she could be for herself, she was a woman, and she couldn't marry Murong Wan'er, Gonggong Jiang knew.
Although Yi Xue believed that Gonggong Jiang would not ask Sima Cheng about her words, it was obviously to hide his feelings for Sima Cheng, but he used Sima Cheng as a shield and "planted" him.
Behind Sima Cheng's back, it was the first time for Yi Xue to do such a thing, because she was uneasy, her hands under the bookcase were twisted hard, and they were slightly red.
However, Yi Xuexia's ruthless words still had a good effect, and I saw that Jiang Gonggong suddenly brightened, paused, and suggested:
"Otherwise, let His Royal Highness Cheng send it over, explain it clearly for His Majesty, send a congratulatory gift, and make amends at the same time......"
……
Of course, in the end, Yi Xue naturally rejected Jiang Gonggong's kindness, she thought that this matter was going to pass like this, but she didn't expect that only a day later, Sima Cheng took the initiative to find herself because of this matter.
That day, when the sun fell, Yi Xue returned to the Jianshi Palace, ready to rest for a while, and was just about to step into the palace door, Sima Cheng suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"See Your Majesty—" Sima Cheng was respectful and polite.
Yi Xue couldn't help but shake her body, during this time, she had never met Sima Cheng alone, and in addition to the previous events, her originally rock-solid heart had a crack.
"What's the matter with you?" Yi Xue pretended to be calm, but the fingers under the wide sleeves still kept twisting.
"Can I borrow a word from Your Majesty?" Sima Chengfeng's eyes were slightly raised, and there was a faint light in his eyes.
Yi Xue was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously thought that Murong Tian was not there, and when there was no outsider, she heard the voice of Gonggong Jiang behind her.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness Cheng, the old slave will step back first......"
When Xue Xue heard this, she turned her head suddenly, and saw that after Gonggong Jiang leaned over and arched his hand, when he raised his head again, he still had a smile on his face, and Xue Xue noticed that Gonggong Jiang was not looking at herself, she followed Gonggong Jiang's gaze with a slight hesitation, and when she saw Sima Cheng, she heard his response.
"There's Lao Jiang's father-in-law." Sima Cheng bowed his head towards Gong Jiang.
Before Yi Xue nodded, Jiang Gonggong had already left in a hurry, looking at Jiang Gonggong's back in the distance, Yi Xue looked puzzled, for some reason, she felt that there was something strange about this matter.
"Your Majesty—" Sima Cheng's voice interrupted Xue Xue's thoughts.
Yi Xue turned her head a little reluctantly, she turned her head just now, on the one hand, to see Jiang Gonggong, on the other hand, she also wanted to avoid looking at Sima Cheng, although she knew that it was useless, but even if it was only a second less, it was all good.
"Listen to Your Majesty, are you worried about Princess Murong?" Sima Cheng asked softly.
Suddenly hearing the name of "Murong Wan'er", Yi Xue was slightly stunned, she hadn't mentioned Murong Wan'er to anyone for a long time, and one of the big reasons was Sima Cheng.
However, at this moment, this name actually came out of the mouth of the person concerned, and Yi Xue didn't know what it meant, and while she was confused, she also felt a faint uneasiness in her heart.
"Forehead ......" Xue Xue pursed her lips and answered vaguely.
Listening to Yi Xue's answer, which was neither affirmative nor negative, Sima Cheng frowned slightly, his eyes couldn't help but darken, paused, and then asked:
"Then can I ask Your Majesty, the long whip before...... Did you send it out? ”
As soon as Sima Cheng's words fell, Yi Xue seemed to think of something, and then remembered the strange appearance of Jiang Gonggong before, she immediately guessed something.
"Is it Gonggong Jiang who has something with you?" Yi Xue lowered her head, not daring to look at Sima Cheng's face.
"This morning in the front hall, when I was waiting for Your Majesty, I had a few words with Gonggong Jiang." Sima Cheng's eyes drooped slightly.
If it was before, in the face of Yi Xue's vague words just now, Sima Cheng might have been indifferent and obsessive, or he might be aggressive, but this time, he was particularly patient, and his tone was a little softer.
"What did you all talk about?" Yi Xue became more and more worried.
"Hmm......" Sima Cheng looked at Yi Xue intently, "Your Majesty, because you have appointed Murong Wan'er as the princess of Dayu, you have to refuse her request for marriage, and Your Majesty is worried about this." “
Sima Cheng's tone was flat, obviously, Gonggong Jiang did not take the initiative to ask for this, and Xue Xue secretly sighed.
"That'...... Did you pay anything back? With her head still down, she asked.
"Father-in-law Jiang, there is a responsibility for this matter...... Sima Cheng leaned over slightly, approaching Yi Xue, and his voice became softer.
Feeling Sima Cheng's approach, she subconsciously took a step back, then tilted her head and took a deep breath.
Maybe it's been too long, I haven't felt Sima Cheng's breath, but at this moment, even if Sima Cheng is just getting closer a little, Yi Xue has become extremely sensitive, and the smell that could make her feel comfortable has now become the reason for her heart to beat wildly.
"Ahem" Yi Xueqing coughed twice, "It's because I didn't know to Gonggong Jiang, this matter has nothing to do with Gongzi Cheng." “
Soon after the words fell, Yi Xue felt that Sima Cheng's breath gradually weakened, and she breathed a sigh of relief, but she still didn't dare to turn her face.
"But so is Murong Gongzi." Soon, Sima Cheng's voice came from above.
Yi Xue turned her head suddenly, and couldn't help but widen her eyes, because she was thinking about Gonggong Jiang just now, she ignored the fact that Murong Tian would be present before the early dynasty.
"He ......" Xue Xue turned her head sharply.
As a result, this time, Yi Xue was impartial, and when she met Sima Cheng's deep eyes, she stiffened and couldn't help but be speechless.
Gonggong Jiang is only a palace person, but Murong Tian is the elder brother of Murong Wan'er, and he also has a close relationship with Yi Xue, so in front of Sima Cheng, it is more difficult for Yi Xue to fool the past, and as long as she is a little careless, if she has any contrary intentions, it is easy to show her feet.
I don't know what Murong poured into, in her heart, Yi Xue already wanted to beat him thousands of times, she showed helplessness, and could only end the conversation with Sima Cheng strongly.
"This is my private matter, there is no need for Cheng Gongzi to bother......" Yi Xue turned around, walked a few steps, turned his back to Sima Cheng, and kept a certain distance from him.
Yi Xue looked into the distance, and couldn't help but feel a little proud, this can be regarded as a blessing to Sima Cheng, at the beginning, it was he who drew a line with Yi Xue, so he should have nothing to refute.
Although it has entered autumn, these days, it is not as cold as before, the sky is clear and clear, the climate is cool and pleasant, Yi Xue can't help but take a deep breath, feeling refreshed both physically and mentally.
"Didn't Your Majesty ever want to be a brother with you?"
As soon as Sima Cheng's words fell, the world seemed to stand still, even if he could see dead leaves falling in the distance, the surroundings were still silent.
