Sima Rui didn't speak, he looked out the window, he could faintly hear the whistling wind outside, the autumn was getting deeper day by day, the weather was getting colder and colder.

"I'm not a sentimental person. I've never cared about anyone. Yuejiao and I don't have a one-day friendship. It's because I know that she values ​​her legs more than her own life, so I accompany her." After a few days, I survived the first few days. If I go now, I am afraid that the two of us can only sit there in a daze, unable to say a word. If we go, it will only make her sad, so forget it.”

Murong Feng was very surprised, "Although you are still young, according to the laws of the Daxing Dynasty, you are already an adult. How could you have never experienced love? If there was no love, how could you stay with Miss Yuejiao like this?" How many years?"

Sima Rui smiled, "I am a ruthless person, I never live for love, Yuejiao is just one of the women I know, and the only one you have ever seen. Love? For the people in this palace, it is really It's too rare, and it's not something you can ask for. Today, you heard me talking about Sima Qiang's concubine Hongyu with my grandmother, right? Back then, she and Sima Zhe also fell in love with each other, but because of an unexpected hero To save the beauty, marry someone else and become Sima Qiang's beloved concubine. Seeing your elder sister and Sima Zhe respecting each other like guests, they seem to love each other, but they are actually heartbreaking, and they are more friends than friends. In fact, it is very boring."

Murong Feng was speechless, Sima Rui gently tucked the quilt for her, and said softly: "Okay, let's not talk about these boring things, why don't I pick an interesting book and read it to you?"

Murong Feng didn't talk much anymore, he was recovering from a long illness, and his physical strength was still exhausted. After talking for a long time, he even felt a little out of breath, so he nodded slightly, closed his eyes, and let Sima Rui decide.

The second prince's mansion is always empty on weekdays, only some eunuchs and servants live in and clean it, Sima Qiang doesn't come back often, but when he comes back, he likes to be clean, he can always see the mansion as it was when he left.

There are many trees and few flowers in the mansion, which is more gloomy and cold than other prince's mansions.

The weather has gradually turned cold, Nuanyu Pavilion has been given to Murong Xue, and his mother, who never liked the cold, can only stay in the house where the cold is getting worse. This makes Sima Qiang feel annoyed. Can't see it.

What's more terrible is that Princess Yali, who was locked in the room, slipped away to nowhere. She was only focused on picking up Hongyu, and even ignored her. It doesn't matter, the guards under him should be found soon. No matter how spoiled she is, she will not completely disregard the interests of Wumeng Kingdom.

Hongyu walked in gently, delivered the medicine yesterday, went to Xiangfu Palace to meet the Queen Mother this morning, heard the Queen Mother said that she wanted to thank her, and knew that Murong Feng's illness has recovered a lot, and he will rest for a day or two It should be cured.

I wondered in my heart, how did Murong Feng win the empress dowager's favor?She vaguely remembered that among the four sisters in the Murong family, Murong Feng was the most inconspicuous, and Murong Xue was the most outstanding, so she still thought it was normal for Murong Xue to become the emperor's concubine Xue, but she was puzzled that Murong Feng was favored.

"Husband." Hongyu sat down beside Sima Qiang, looked at her husband's thoughtful face, and asked softly, "Why are you so worried?"

"Have you met grandma?" Sima Qiang came back to his senses, looked at his wife, and asked with a smile.

"Yes." Hongyu said with a smile, "I also heard my grandmother mentioning the fourth sister-in-law again and again. It seems that my grandmother really loves this granddaughter-in-law. Yes, my grandmother told me that Miss Murong has recovered a lot. I think, let's take a rest." It should be fine in a day or two."

Sima Qiang nodded, "The medicinal materials of Wumeng Kingdom are much better than those of our Daxing Dynasty. In the future, Wumeng Kingdom can supply medicinal materials all year round. The only thing that disappoints me is that the emperor did not accept Princess Yali. If there is Yali With the princess in the palace, Wumeng Kingdom should be more stable."

"Then what are you going to do with Princess Yali?" Seeing that her husband no longer mentioned Murong Feng, Hongyu wisely stopped mentioning it. If her husband really likes Murong Feng, it is best not to mention this person too often. Otherwise, it will only make him miss him even more.She smiled and joked with her husband, "Since Father has already given it to you, why don't you take it away? Hongyu married her husband and has never had children, so Princess Yali may be able to add a son and a half for you." Female."

"That kind of woman can't be given away for free. If you really want to take a concubine, you have to ask for a quiet and intelligent woman, just like your beloved wife, and your sisters are also good at harmony." Sima Qiang smiled slightly, "Besides, Princess Yali is not a woman willing to be ordinary. The more the emperor doesn't want her, the more she will not give up. ——Yes, I suddenly remembered that this princess Yali might go somewhere! Interested, if my guess is correct, the first place she went to after leaving the Second Prince's Mansion was the Fourth Prince's Mansion. If she is not in the Fourth Prince's Mansion at this time, then it must be Murong Xuena, that is to say, she It must be hidden in the Nuanyu Pavilion at this time."

The corners of Sima Qiang's lips smiled, feeling very happy in his heart. If she guessed right, then let her make trouble and anger the emperor. As a princess of Wumeng Kingdom, the emperor will give her three points to avoid another war, saying Maybe it's time to punish Murong Xue.

Looking at the protruding smile on her husband's face, Hongyu was a little puzzled, "Husband, why are you so happy?"

"I'm thinking—forget it, it's all right, have you visited your mother?" Sima Qiang changed the subject, "The weather is getting colder and colder, and my mother can't help chilling, and now the Nuanyu Pavilion has been given to Murong. Xue, I don’t know how mother will spend the long cold night?”

Hongyu said sadly: "I went to see her yesterday. Mother-in-law looks good, and the quilt has been replaced with thicker ones long ago. It's just that mother-in-law is the emperor's concubine, otherwise, she would be able to take her to the border with us. Although it is far away from the imperial palace, there is a stove in winter, and it is as warm as spring."

Sima Qiang nodded, and thought to himself: Mother is not a weak person, otherwise she would not be able to stand in the palace. Thinking about it, she would definitely not let Murong Xue go. With her mother's plan, then Murong Xue is definitely not hers. opponent!

Mrs. Murong's funeral was handled very simply, without even alarming anyone. Murong Qingliang took a few days off and did not go to court. He closed the gate of Prince Murong's mansion, put up a sign of thanking guests behind closed doors, and never saw anyone again. None of my children were alarmed.He just took his old slave and buried his wife quietly with his own hands. He really couldn't bear to let his wife face the world's comments, and only hoped that she could leave quietly.

Kneeling in front of the new grave, Murong Qingliang burst into tears, sobbing choked up, human nature is that a man does not cry easily, but before he is sad, the little daughter he loves the most now, he is willing to sacrifice another daughter's life to protect the little daughter, She actually became the emperor's concubine Xue, and her own wife hanged herself because she was ashamed of the Murong family.

It takes a lot of courage to commit suicide and end your own life.

Murong Xue!Murong Xue!If I had known this, I shouldn't have given up on Murong Feng to protect her. Maybe she really married Sima Rui. With her beauty and intelligence, she should be able to keep Sima Rui's heart. Since she can attract the emperor, the emperor can't wait to marry her Without her, Sima Rui shouldn't be a problem, but—ah, there is no medicine for regret in life!
