then

Ma Sihui saw a girl.

She is not a girl from Caileju, and judging from her clothes, she looks like she comes from a wealthy family, and she looks well-educated and sensible.

Ma Situi was stunned: "Who is the girl?"

While he was wondering about such a girl coming here, Ma Sihui was also curious about how she got in, taking advantage of the chaos?

The girl looked at Ma Sidui and said with a smile: "My name is Qu Hongye. I just saw that my husband protected the little girl without any intention, so I admire her deeply."

Qu Hongye did not go with Su Changan and the others, or in other words, Su Changan left her alone from the beginning.

To use Su Changan's original words, 'When you are with me, the person you see may not be real. If you hide and see for yourself, that is the real thing. After watching it, if you want to talk to him, go. If you don't want to, just come back. But maybe I'll go talk, maybe not. ’

Qu Hongye knew what the Queen meant. To put it bluntly, the Queen was worried that the man would pretend and find out that he was from the palace.

Although Qu Hongye didn't know why the empress was so concerned about this matter, she also knew that the empress was full of goodwill towards her and really wanted to fulfill her wish.

Therefore, Qu Hongye did not refuse the kindness, and stood in an inconspicuous place among the crowd in accordance with the Queen's wishes.

just

When they arrived, they saw Ma Si standing in front of the girl, not afraid of life and death, and even said "I don't believe it."

This touched Qu Hongye's heart, so he followed Ma Sizui after watching him leave.

She wanted to talk to the man who had been telling her interesting stories about the town for the past few months.

When Ma Situi heard this, he shook his head in shame: "I don't dare, I just thought that if I don't stand up, the child will be beaten."

Hearing this, Qu Hongye smiled and then looked at Ma Sidui.

Ma Situi was stunned for a moment, then looked back at his bed which was full of books and was a little messy, but he still said "please".

The room is very simple, with a bed, stools and table.

The table is also a desk, with a lot of papers and books placed on it, randomly placed.

Ma Sidui wiped the stool at a loss, and then asked Qu Hongye to sit down.

Qu Hongye didn't even care about this, but he noticed the maple leaves in the most beautiful box on the table.

I just haven’t looked at it a few times.

Ma Situi, who knew very well that others should not know the importance of the poems sent by the women in the palace, immediately closed the box and said with a smile: "It's just some picked maple leaves."

While speaking, Ma Si stepped back and opened the door. After all, he had to consider the reputation of this girl who came for unknown reasons.

Qu Hongye looked at Ma Sidui's actions and naturally understood the meaning. He smiled and looked at Ma Sidui who was standing.

But this look.

But he also noticed the way Ma Sihui's legs were shaking.

Ma Situi lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed immediately, then bowed his head with a wry smile, and said, "I'm afraid."

With life like this, Ma Sihui had a clear view on many things. Now that he was discovered, there was no need to hide it.

Qu Hongye was confused.

Ma Situi said awkwardly: "I have grown so old, and for the first time someone put a knife to my neck, I thought I was going to die, and I was scared in my heart."

After saying that, Ma Sidui looked at Qu Hongye and bowed again: "Just now, the girl said that she admired my behavior, so she came here specially. Now I let the girl see me like this. I'm really sorry."

Ma Sidui no longer deliberately controlled it, and his body was shaking more and more obviously.

Qu Hongye looked at Ma Situi and couldn't help but asked: "Then why did you come over just now?"

Ma Situi was stunned for a moment, glanced at his room, and then said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, girl, my life has been ruined by me. Now I am thirty, I have not passed the imperial examination, and I have achieved nothing in other things, and even can only Living in this woodshed, I thought that it wouldn't be a big deal if I died, but those children are only that young. If I don't stand up, what will happen to them if something happens to them? Their lives are still long."

While talking, Ma Sidui saw that his legs were shaking even more violently, and he immediately pressed them down with his hands, and then he became even more embarrassed.

Qu Hongye saw it and said with a smile: "I have also had a knife put to my neck. I know I will be very scared. Sir, you don't have to be like this."

When Qu Hongye was in the palace, Li Nichang's men put daggers on her neck many times. Although they were all to scare her, she knew the fear.

So I understand Ma Sihui very well.

When Ma Situi heard this, he was a little surprised, wondering why this girl was so well-educated and sensible, so why did she suffer such a fate.

Thinking like this, Ma Situi felt inexplicably sympathetic to this girl.

However, Qu Hongye looked at Ma Sidui, thought for a moment and asked: "Mr."

But when she opened her mouth, Qu Hongye stopped talking. She wanted to ask whether her husband was doing this to persuade others to be optimistic and enjoy life.

But when the words came to my lips, I forgot about it because I found it inappropriate.

Ma Sihui was confused.

But he also realized that he had forgotten to pour the tea, so he stood up immediately, turned around and went to get the tea set that had been put away: "Girl, wait a minute, Ma is rude, but he forgot to pour the tea for the girl."

Seeing Ma Si retreat, he turned around.

Qu Hongye looked at Ma Sihui's back, smiled, took out the maple leaf from his arms and placed it on the table, then turned around and left directly.

Ma Situi brought the tea set from Caileju here, and it was also a gift from the shop owner. However, Ma Situi couldn't bear to use such a good tea set on weekdays, so he put it away.

He took it out immediately, then turned around, but saw the girl leaving without saying goodbye, and was stunned for a moment.

But the next moment.

Ma Sidui saw the maple leaves on the table.

Immediately startled, he reached out and picked it up.

Then I saw it said, 'Sitting alone in a place of love, I feel so bored. There is a trickling stream with grass growing in several places. Do you know it? Do you know it? The red leaves are rippling along the stream. ’

Ma Situi could see clearly with just one glance.

It was the girl with whom she wrote letters in maple leaves.

Therefore, after Ma Situi thought for a moment, he immediately turned around and ran outside. When he saw that the backyard door was open, he hurriedly ran out.

In the narrow alley, when he saw Qu Hongye's back, Ma Situi was about to scream, but instead he smiled bitterly, because he thought of his terrible life, looked down at the maple leaf in his hand, and couldn't help but shake his head.

But at this time.

"Sir, if I can leave the palace next time, could you take me to see the broken iron you mentioned in Blacksmith Zhang's house, as well as the fields outside the town?"

Hearing this, Ma Situi couldn't help but raise his eyes.

Then, he saw Qu Hongye looking at him with a smile.

Ma Situi's lips wriggled and his hands kept squeezing, not knowing what to do.

Qu Hongye looked at Ma Sidui, smiled and said, "Sir, if you don't say anything, I will accept it as your husband."

After saying that, he bowed and turned around to leave.

Ma Sidui looked at Qu Hongye's back and watched her walk out of the alley.

But he suddenly frowned, wishing he could give himself a big ear of melon seeds!

but.

Looking at the poem in his hand, Ma Sidui thought of Qu Hongye again, but he smiled and walked towards his woodshed.

Entered the room

Ma Sidui opened the brocade box and carefully put the maple leaf in his hand.

Just live well.

Then all those efforts to comfort her were not in vain.

Thinking like this, Ma Sihui saw the maple leaves that he had not given away yet.

It says, "An orchid in the palace has never been seen by the world, and the world has never seen it. So, does it not have the qualification to bloom?" Students may not see it, so just ask the girl to bloom, and there will be a lot of people to appreciate it. Don't be sad or sad, otherwise you will sink deeper. ’

Seeing what he had written, Ma Sidui looked at the poem he had just received on the maple leaf, and thought of Qu Hongye's invitation to him just now.

Inexplicable.

Ma Sihui became restless.

But right away.

Ma Sidui shook his head. Impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible. It is impossible for anyone to like someone like me.

Thinking like this, Ma Sidui sat down and opened the book.

If you have distracting thoughts, just read.

Reading can relieve all kinds of worries, and reading can transform thousands of thoughts.

……

And at the same time in the woods.

Li Xingyue and Su Qingning were walking in the woods.

It is worth mentioning that Su Qingning held the talisman in her hand and looked around.

suddenly!

An owl hoots!

Su Qingning was so frightened that she held on to Li Xingyue: "You monsters and ghosts leave quickly, leave quickly!!"

Li Xingyue was hurt by being caught: "Ling Ning!"

Hearing this, Su Qingning looked at Li Xingyue, then looked around, but found nothing. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then coughed and looked at Li Xingyue: "Why are you scaring me!"

Li Xingyue immediately said: "Why did I scare you? Your scratching hurt me! And you heard about some female ghost and insisted on coming here. Look at yourself!"

Su Qingning said: "What's wrong with me! I want to be a great writer, this is called collecting materials! And aren't you also interested? You must follow me!"

Li Xingyue looked aggrieved: "You insist on holding me, and it won't work if I don't come. Besides, it's so quiet here, why don't you let the sisters from the Chixia Army follow you?"

When it came to the end, Li Xingyue was startled and looked straight ahead. Then, a look of horror appeared in his eyes, and then his whole face turned pale with fright.

then

Snapped!

He hugged Su Qingning tightly and said tremblingly: "Fu Fu. Qing Ning, use the talisman! It's coming, it's coming!"
