After waking up from a half-dream, Xia Qiulian didn't feel sleepy at all. She was wearing a thin white dress and a coat, and opened the door.

The pear blossoms in the yard are in full bloom, and the faint cold fragrance is always lingering in the nose.

It was already midnight, the banquet was over, and the busy servants had fallen asleep, only the footsteps of patrolling guards could be faintly heard.

The night wind was a bit chilly, Xia Qiulian stretched out her hands to gather her neckline, and walked slowly into the courtyard.

Only a few lanterns hanging on the porch were left swaying in the breeze, and even the shadows of the trees in the yard swayed.

Xia Qiulian walked under the pear tree and stared at the gorgeous petals on the tree, feeling nothing but sadness in her heart.

Yan Wanting.

If I see you again, how should I deal with myself, how should I be indifferent in front of you.

The figure that still appeared in my mind just now seemed to never dissipate, and those eyes that were always clear and smiling seemed to be staring at me in the dark.

The wind is getting stronger and stronger, the corners of the clothes are flying with the wind, the white and delicate ankles are exposed in the air, the coolness seems to penetrate the bone marrow and dry the blood.

Xia Qiulian stood alone under the tree for a long time before she lowered her head and closed her eyes secretly.

About to turn around and go back to the room.

Suddenly there was a slight trampling sound from the corner of the yard.

Like someone is climbing a wall.

Xia Qiulian looked back, staring at the dark corner with her cold eyes, and raised her voice in a cold voice vigilantly.

"who."

The corner fell into silence again, and Xia Qiulian's cold and clear voice could be heard quietly dissipating in the wind.

Xia Qiulian took two steps back slowly, her eyes still looking at the corner.

"As long as I call out, the guards watching the night will arrive immediately. This gentleman on Liang should leave quickly. If he is only asking for money, don't risk his life."

No one responded, and the corner was still silent.

It seemed that the sound just now was just a momentary illusion.

Xia Qiulian frowned slightly, she was proficient in rhythm, and her hearing was naturally very sensitive.

The sound just now was by no means an illusion.

Xia Qiulian stood quietly in the courtyard, her blue silk clothes dancing in the wind, and her cold face became more and more condensed under the moonlight.

She seemed to be confronting the undead in the dark, without the slightest panic from her daughter's family.

Xia Qiulian stood for a long time without leaving, her dark eyes did not blink, and she didn't seem to feel tired or sleepy at all.

at last.

There was a soft sound from the dark corner, followed by a helpless low sigh.

"Miss Xia really has good stamina, I admit defeat."

The voice with a smile was low, as if it was deliberately lowered, but it could still be recognized as a woman's voice.

that voice...

Xia Qiulian's fair face instantly turned pale, and the dark pupils in her cold eyes slowly shrank. She looked at the dark corner in disbelief, her thin body trembling uncontrollably in the wind.

"I came looking for the fragrance of flowers. If I disturb Miss Xia, I ask Miss Xia to forgive me."

A figure caged in the darkness flashed out from the shadow of the tree in the corner, and the thin figure was faintly visible, but she was still half hidden behind the tree.

Only a pair of curious black eyes looked at Xia Qiulian up and down through the courtyard.

Xia Qiulian, who was standing in the courtyard, didn't seem to hear the man's plea. His eyes were full of bewilderment, and he staggered back two steps in panic.

The beautiful eyebrows and eyes that seemed to shatter the starlight in the sky were full of sadness, and the bright eyes were also covered with a layer of moist mist.

"Huh, but my rudeness scared Miss Xia." The person hiding behind the shadow of the tree finally came out slowly.

The person in front of him has a fair and delicate face, with a pair of bright and smiling phoenix eyes, and a thick beard growing on his gentle face like an oval egg. The man's robe made of blue satin can't hide his eyes. Graceful figure.

One can tell at a glance that this is a young woman disguised as a man.

Yan Wanting didn't understand why this beautiful Xia family lady felt as if she had seen a ghost when she saw her.

"You... who are you?"

Xia Qiulian turned around abruptly, with her back to Yan Banting, her thin body trembling non-stop.

Her voice was weak and hoarse, as if it came from the sky, even she couldn't hear it, the hoarse and trembling voice came from her own throat.

The hands that tightly held the collar fell weakly, and the cloak that was draped over the shoulders fluttered down, landing on the bluestone slab full of petals.

It really is her.

"Miss Xia met me today. I am the deputy general who came with General Murong, from the country of Yan. In a few days, I will escort Miss Xia to the country of Yan."

Yan Wanting explained, looking at the cloak that fell on the stone slab, bent down to pick it up.

The silky silk is grasped in the palm of the hand, and if you don't use your strength, it may slip down by itself.

The thin body of the woman with her back to her was still trembling slightly, and her whole body was filled with a pityful sense of loss.

Instead, Yan Wanting was somewhat at a loss.

"Miss Xia, don't be afraid, I'm not a wicked person. It's just that I also plant a pear tree in Yan country. I regret that I missed the flowering period when I came to Jiang country this time. I couldn't sleep at night. I smelled the fragrance of pear blossoms. They came here with the fragrance of flowers, but they didn't know that this was Miss Xia's courtyard, and they didn't intend to disturb Miss Xia."

Yan Wanting shrugged, his eyes full of helplessness.

I knew she would not come.

As soon as he climbed to the top of the wall, he saw the beautiful and weak Miss Xia standing in the yard feeling lost.

I wanted to leave without making a sound, but the soft and weak Miss Xia's hearing was so keen that she even noticed her appearance.

She wanted to quietly pretend that she didn't exist, and let Miss Xia leave on her own.

But she couldn't guess that this Miss Xia was very persistent, and she confronted her for a long time who was hidden in the darkness and couldn't see her figure clearly.

She was really helpless, so she showed up.

Then the Miss Xia was stunned again, looking at her as if she was about to cry.

After Yan Wanting explained, she stood behind Xia Qiulian for a long time, but she didn't respond.

My heart is even more depressed and strange.

"You...can you tell me your first and last name."

Xia Qiulian managed to suppress the tears in her eyes, but she still refused to turn around and look at the person behind her.

She no longer had the courage to look back at the person who had just appeared in her dream.

That person looked at him with a clear smile when he first met, and the hatred and desolation in his eyes when he died, as if he was still in front of his eyes.

This is how she can face it calmly and respond as if nothing happened.

"Li Fengyou, my name is Li Fengyou."

Yan Wanting rolled his eyes and blurted out.

"Feng You." Xia Qiulian closed her eyes with a pale face.

The name and surname given by Yan Wanting are not fabricated, but a real person.

In her previous life, Yan Wanting didn't like being served by a group of maids, and the only maid who always followed her was Feng You.

"Although we met for the first time, Miss Xia is very affectionate."

Yan Wanting's heart skipped a beat when he heard Xia Qiulian omitting his surname and calling out Fengyou's name.

If she hadn't seen Xia Qiulian before, she would have felt that Miss Xia knew her.

Looking at his eyes, there is a natural sense of intimacy in the sadness and sadness.

"If Miss Li doesn't mind, you can also call me Qiu Lian."

Xia Qiulian spoke softly, a trace of melancholy appeared on her cold face.

"Girl? You see I'm a woman."

Yan Wanting raised his eyebrows helplessly, then lowered his head and frowned and scratched the itchy beard on his chin.

Sure enough, everything written in the book is false.

How could it be possible for a woman to disguise herself as a man without being seen through.

"Oh, of course I can tell."

Xia Qiulian smiled in a low voice, and his expression finally eased a little.

In the previous life, Yan Wanting always liked to wear men's clothes around in Yan Palace. Every time she wore an inappropriate beard, wore her brother's clothes, but her chest was not tied, she lowered her voice and pretended to be a libertine, molesting the people in the palace. Palace lady.

Partial and self-consciously funny.

At that time, Yan Banting, who was wearing a prickly beard, always frowned and scratched his chin. When the itching was uncomfortable, he would lean on her like a baby and pillow on her lap.

With a pair of deep and dark phoenix eyes bent, he looked up at her, pointed at his chin and said to her.

"Itchy, Qiu Lian scratch it for me."

Every time Xia Qiulian had no choice but to serve her like a maid, gently scratching her chin with her soft fingertips.

Then the man would squint his beautiful phoenix eyes, comfortably twitch the corners of his lips, and fall asleep lazily on her lap.

His expression was very similar to that of the little orange cat raised by the court lady in front of Xia Qiulian's palace, stretching after a full belly, showing her swollen belly, lazily lying on the bluestone board to bask in the sun.

Thinking about it carefully now, when Yan Wanting was troubled at that time, didn't he frown and scratch his chin like this now?

"If it itches, just take it off."

Xia Qiulian didn't know when she turned around, she stood in front of Yan Wanting, her body was gentle and tender, she raised her arm lightly, and her cold and slender fingertips gently brushed Yan Banting's itchy chin.

It's like a previous life.

Yan Wanting didn't like others to touch her, although she was pampered and served by a group of palace maids since she was a child, she didn't even need to raise her hands to get dressed.

But she still hated other people touching her skin.

Even Feng You, who grew up with her, rarely touched her.

But I don't know why.

The woman in front of Mingming had just met today.

It was just the first time we met, but I dared to touch myself intimately.

What surprised her even more was that she didn't resist the touch of the woman in front of her at all.

I even felt that her fingertips were cool and soft, and it was very comfortable to scratch her chin lightly.

Yan Wanting didn't feel that he had unintentionally lost his royal dignity in front of this woman, he raised his chin like a kitten, squinted his phoenix eyes, and let her scratch his chin obediently.

Xia Qiulian suddenly withdrew her hand.

This made Yan Wanting feel a little dissatisfied.

She stared at the woman in front of her with wet eyes.

But she looked like she had seen a ghost again, like someone who just woke up from a nightmare, her eyes were full of panic and sorrow.

Xia Qiulian was startled to realize that she had boldly overstepped.

She was the one who indirectly caused Yan Wanting's death and the destruction of Yan Kingdom in her previous life.

What qualifications and face do you have to accept Yan Wanting's intimacy and pampering calmly like in the previous life.

Didn't she make up her mind not to let Yan Wanting fall in love with her again in this life?

This uncontrollable intimacy and closeness, what does it look like, like seduction?

"No, I can not."

Xia Qiulian murmured palely, then she took two steps back, took a deep look at Yan Wanting who was full of confusion, turned around and hurried into the room, and slammed the door shut.

The remaining Yan Wanting, who looked astonished and puzzled, stood in the courtyard.

What a strangely behaving woman.

Xia Qiulian's faux pas was really inexplicable to Yan Banting.

There was a trace of deepness in her eyes, then she shook her head lightly, turned and left.
