Chapter 126

  Simarui was somewhat surprised, after all, where would a concubine do these things herself? Wanting to eat something, just call out and there will be servants busy preparing, and looking at Murong Feng, obviously not even touching the water with her ten fingers, how could she do these things?

  Some suspicious people sat down in front of Murong Feng, smelling a fragrance, presumably the food had been seasoned and roasted slowly, exuding a fragrance that whetted their appetite. They casually picked up a string and took a bite, unable to help but say: "Feng'er, who did you learn this skill from? The flavor is so wonderfully strange."

  Murong Feng smiled in his heart, of course, it was learned from Bai Min, but could he say that? He had to smile and say: "It's what Feng'er learned when she was a child living with her grandmother, you just eat well, we'll drink while eating, it's the most carefree, and no one will disturb us, how about we come once and not leave until we're drunk?"

  Simarui burst out laughing, looking at Murong Feng. In his heart, there was no longer any regret. To have such a woman by his side for life was truly heaven's blessing! What virtue did he possess to deserve to spend his life with Feng'er? He drained the cup of wine in one gulp and laughed loudly, saying: "Refreshing!"

  The night wind blows quietly, and the early summer evening makes people feel comfortable and relaxed.

  Inside the small pavilion, Sima Rui and Murong Feng were drinking wine and eating roasted food, with a radiant smile of happiness on their faces. In the Harmony Garden, except for them, there was no one else, the servants had not returned, in the imperial palace, plus Sima Rui being the crown prince and having exceptional martial arts skills, naturally there was nothing to worry about, so Murong Feng was carefree for a while.

  It's easy to recall the scenes with Dong Weiwei now. But even thinking about it again, it's just a memory, as if recalling one's past life, and Bai Min has become my past life, while Mu Rong Feng has become my present life.

  Only when I've had enough to drink and feel intoxicated, do I return home to rest. The sky is a deep blue, the stars and moon are bright and clear.

  Si Guo Yuan, the whole courtyard was quiet and desolate. Sima Qiang stood quietly in the middle of the courtyard, he had been standing for a long time, even he himself didn't remember how long it had been. He didn't feel hungry or thirsty, his heart surprisingly didn't have any sadness, only joy. These days, he had always been happy, because Murong Feng had come back.

  He still remembered that at the time, his mother had stabbed the horse, and the injured horse had galloped away with the carriage, his heart suddenly felt empty, and everything in front of him suddenly dimmed. From then on, there was no longer any sunshine in his world. He spent a whole winter and spring guarding the old trees and withered grass in the Siwuxuan Garden.

  During the Spring Festival, I heard that Sima Rui got drunk every night and didn't see anyone. As for myself, I don't even have the heart to get drunk, only guilt. If I hadn't kidnapped Murong Feng for my mother back then, maybe she would still be alive now, not dead without a body to bury. Now, she's actually back, he's really happy, as long as she's alive, everything is fine.

  However, his heart was filled with thoughts of her, and he had never longed for any woman like this before, including Hong Yu.

  Hongyu is his wife, who allowed him to sit in the position of Second Prince back then. If it weren't for Hongyu and their private affair, it would have been absolutely impossible. He feels guilty and grateful towards her, so he has always only kept this one woman by his side, not taking any other women as concubines. It's not that he doesn't have feelings; after all, Hongyu was his first formal consort. Before her, he had also had women, but they were all quietly dealt with by his mother because of Hongyu.

  However, there are too many benefits in the emotions, so it's not that simple. As for Murong Feng, he really has a crush on her from the moment he saw her, and that watery woman has been placed in his heart, and can't be erased.

  It's just thinking quietly, it's a happy and joyful thing. This is the happiest thing for him in Siwang Garden, that is, he can think of Murong Feng without being disturbed by anyone.

  The Si Gu Yuan can't hold him back, if it wasn't for his mother, he might have left long ago. The world is so big, why does he have to stay in this place and suffer? It's only because of his mother that he can't leave, he can't abandon her in such a desolate place just for his own happiness.

  He knew the place of He Yi Yuan, which was personally built by Huang Shu, and it was the most beautiful and peaceful place in the imperial palace. Now it has been given to Murong Feng, and he himself felt that the place was indeed very suitable for Murong Feng, and her character was really well-matched with it, calm as water, gentle and elegant. So he could easily find his way there, under the cover of night, no one could stop him from going anywhere in the imperial palace now, although his father had imprisoned him, but did not abolish his martial arts.

  You can see Murong Feng, who seems to have fallen asleep. The window is open with a thin gauze curtain, the wind blows and the candlelight flickers, as if he's sleeping very peacefully. There's still a faint smile on his face. At this sight, I was stunned into a daze.

  "Hello," a sudden voice came from behind, cool and quiet as water.

  Simu Qiang smiled wryly, turned his head, and saw Sima Rui. This younger brother was really a handful. In fact, if there weren't some so-called grudges between them, they could have been friends. Sima Rui was not an ambitious person, although he was ranked as the fourth prince, he had never coveted the throne. He was naturally stubborn and unruly, sometimes Simu Qiang even envied Sima Rui for living a carefree life.

  Their eyes met, and it was somewhat awkward.

  "I just came to take a look, nothing else." Sima Qiang tried his best to remain calm. Under the moonlight, he saw Sima Rui wearing a plain white robe, with sharpness hidden in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, yet also having an innate air of elegance, lazy but with a tight grip inside.

  Simarui smiled faintly and said with a hint of teasing: "I know, if you had any other intentions, would I let you stand here?"

  Looking at Sima Qiang's dejected and disheveled appearance, Sima Rui also felt a sense of regret. At this moment, he might still not know that his wife, Hongyu, was already sleeping by Sima Zhe's side. In the past, he had taken Hongyu away from Sima Zhe, but now Sima Zhe had taken her back from him. Was one Hongyu worth it? He felt a little pitiful in his heart. Since the day Murong Feng disappeared, he had already known that Sima Qiang had Murong Feng's shadow in his heart, but he hadn't paid attention to it. Now, he had actually come all the way here, risking being put to death, just to secretly take a glance at Murong Feng.

  "You are truly blessed." Sima Qiang didn't seem to mean to leave, but instead continued, "If we're talking about it, among the brothers, your life is actually the most comfortable. Unlike us, for the sake of so-called benefits, living such a hard life. And there's also such an excellent woman accompanying you for life."
