156. 155th birthday

A secret report was quietly passed into Liuli's hands.

Liuli unfolded as usual and took a look at it, and then her face began to turn pale, and her heart beat hard.

She took a deep breath and suppressed her panicked heart.

The content on the letterhead is about the Burning Heaven Palace. It's been a long time since there has been any news of the Burning Heaven Palace, and today this one suddenly came, how could Liuli calm down.

After reading the contents of the letter, she silently burned the letterhead, then calmed down her state of mind and sorted out her appearance in front of the dressing mirror.

The woman in the mirror looked a little cold, but her eyes were a little more angry than before. She was born in a secret pavilion, and was later chosen to be by the side of the former queen, responsible for monitoring the former queen's every move, not that she was not sincere to her majesty, but she really couldn't bear to watch the former queen die again, so she took the initiative to conceal the news of the former queen.

As long as Su Rui doesn't return to Hu Kingdom, the fact that she is not dead should not be exposed. Liuli couldn't help comforting herself.

If you have done this kind of thing once to lie to your master, you will use it countless times to cover up the previous lie. Liuli sighed silently, she pushed open the door and walked into the courtyard, looking up at the weak sun in the distance, although the sunlight was not strong, but it still pierced her eyes slightly swollen.

finally came on a sunny day, but the layers of palaces in the Hu Imperial Palace did not seem to be lifeless. The surrounding palace people are still busy as usual, but the palace is still very depressed and deserted.

The New Year has only been long ago, and it is now the second year of Sikong Jin's ascension to the throne, and there is still no good progress in the war in the west. Long Yan didn't like it, and the entire palace seemed to be covered in a haze like his face.

Ruri went to the imperial study as usual.

When she arrived, Sikong Jin had not yet gone down, but the inside of the imperial study had already been very warm.

When Liuli passed through the imperial garden, she saw a few palace lamps in the shape of small animals, and then she remembered that today was the Shangyuan Festival.

The days go by so fast.

The palace door was slowly opened, and Sikong Jin, who had descended from the court, walked in quickly, and Liuli hurriedly came over and knelt down to salute.

"What's the news today?" Sikong Jin walked straight past Liuli's side, sat down behind the desk, and then asked without raising his head.

Liuli calmly chose a few other things to say, but didn't say a word about the dynamics of the Burning Sky Palace.

A woman who came out of the Xuantian Temple went to Jun Rushuang's camp alone, and then lost news again. Although the spies in the Dark Pavilion couldn't determine the identity of the woman, Liuli knew that it was her mother when she guessed it. She had concealed several pieces of news about Su Rui before, and when she looked at it comprehensively, it was not difficult to see that this woman was Su Rui.

"Yes." Sikong Jin nodded while looking at the fold in his hand, "You have worked hard." Get up. ”

Only then did Liuli stand up and stand to the side with his hands down.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Feng asks to see you." There was a sound of prayer outside the door.

Sikong Jin Qingjun's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Nope." There was already a little impatience in his tone. It's not that he is ruthless, but Feng Ling'er is too clingy.

There were a bunch of things in front of him that couldn't be dealt with, but Feng Ling'er seemed to be satisfied with being by her side all the time.

"Yes." Liuli went to the door in response and said to the people outside, "Your Majesty said it." Not for now. ”

"Aunt Liuli, please pass it on, Concubine Feng is outside the door." The eunuch outside spoke again, and Liuli was also a little impatient. However, she is not the master, and she can't show disgust for the master, so her face is still calm.

She walked to Sikong Jin's side again, "Your Majesty, Concubine Feng has already arrived." I'm afraid it's not good not to see it. ”

Sikong Jin raised his eyes and glanced at Liuli, and there was already a little anger in those handsome eyes.

"Concubine Feng's legs are not good." Liuli had no choice but to remind.

That's it, Sikong Jin sighed slightly after hearing this, "You call her in." ”

Feng Ling'er can't walk, it's not easy for her to come here from Anxi Palace, and now the front-line war is all supported by her brother, if she doesn't come, that's it, she is here, so she can't be gone.

The palace door opened, and four eunuchs carried Feng Ling'er's wheelchair over the threshold, placed her in the study, and then closed the door again.

Liuli came over and saluted first, and then pushed Feng Ling'er in front of Sikong Jin.

"See Your Majesty for concubines." Feng Ling'er sat in a wheelchair and bowed her head.

She couldn't walk, and Sikong Jin specially allowed her not to kneel and salute.

"Why did Concubine Ai come to the imperial study today?" Sikong Jin took a deep breath and squeezed out a smile, he stood up and walked in front of Feng Ling'er and took her hands.

It was still cold outside, and she waited outside for some time, her hands were not warm, but they were unusually slippery and soft.

Feng Ling'er raised her head slightly with a shy face and looked at her husband standing in front of her.

I haven't seen him for a few days, I really think about it, I really can't see enough of his appearance. Feng Ling'er thought stupidly. The bright yellow dragon robe on his body, how could he set off him so handsome and charming.

It's really beautiful in life, and it looks good in anything, not to mention this luxurious robe that symbolizes the supreme power of the Hu State.

During the Chinese New Year, Feng Ling'er had been promoted from the imperial concubine to the imperial concubine, and she was only one step away from the queen's throne. Feng Ling'er is very confident, as long as her brother can win on the front line, the queen's position will be hers sooner or later.

But now she has new concerns.

After Su Rui's death, the throne was vacant, and she was originally the only concubine in the palace of Hu State, but Kaichun would be drafted according to the convention, and once the draft began, she was no longer the only one in the harem.

At present, it seems that no one can compete for her, and Sikong Jin's mind is not on the draft at all, but he may not choose a fox to charm Sikong Jin's heart.

So she has to pay more attention to Sikong Jin.

She needs a child, a prince, as long as she can give birth to Sikong Jin's first child, the queen's throne will be firmly in her hands.

The state of Hu needs an heir.

"Your Majesty, today is Shangyuan Festival." Feng Ling'er said in her softest voice, "Is it okay for Your Majesty to accompany your courtiers and concubines today?" The concubine hadn't seen Her Majesty for several days. ”

She asked the imperial doctor, if Sikong Jin could stay with her today, then her chances of conceiving would be much greater.

She wants a son.

Sikong Jin's heart was a little upset, but he still nodded with a smile.

The concubine in front of her has a beautiful face, shy cheeks, and watery eyes, a real hibiscus face, autumn eyes, but why does Sikong Jin always feel that she is no longer the Feng Ling'er in her mind in the past.

It was as if an invisible wall was holding her back.

He raised his hand and gently stroked Feng Ling'er's smooth and delicate cheeks, causing a hint of crimson on her face.

If it had been before, his heart would have been full of tenderness and sweetness, but now he seems to be indifferent. I don't know if he has changed, or if she has changed.

What he remembered was a face that was half ruined, her clear eyes, her unpretentious sincere words, the corners of Sikong Jin's mouth curled slightly, and the person in front of him seemed to overlap with the other person in his heart.

If Suri was here now, he wouldn't bother him now.

She has her own little world.

A sharp pain suddenly rose in Sikong Jin's heart, she was already dead. He slowly withdrew his hand that was caressing Feng Ling'er's cheek.

"Okay." Sikong Jin stood up straight and said slowly, "You go back first." I'll come back to you later after I've taken care of state affairs. ”

Do you want to see the twists and turns? Feng Ling'er was stunned, her gaze swept to the piles of folds piled up on the table, and her eyes showed a little displeasure.

Every day is an excuse for the importance of state affairs and the busyness of state affairs!

"Your Majesty is the Shangyuan Festival today. Couldn't His Majesty think about it for his concubines and accompany his concubines? Feng Ling'er said coquettishly.

"Concubine." Sikong Jin's tone was a little heavier, "Since you are already the imperial concubine." Just know the proportions. Now that the state affairs are busy, the war is tense, and your brother is still fighting bloodily on the front line, do you think I will have the heart to accompany you through the storm? ”

Feng Ling'er's face turned pale, and infinite resentment rose in her heart.

The war was not caused by her, so why should the anger be sprinkled on her? How hard is it to just spend a day with her?

"Your Majesty, it's the concubine's mistake." Although her heart was full of resentment, Feng Ling'er still made a picture of a wronged little woman. She hurriedly grabbed Sikong Jin's hand, "The concubine just misses His Majesty too much, so she doesn't know the general situation." I beg your pardon. ”

Feng Ling'er bowed her head and softened, and Sikong Jin was inconvenient to be tougher again.

He also slowed down his complexion, and said softly, "Good, go back and wait for me first, I will find you later." ”

After sending Feng Ling'er away, Sikong Jin looked at the closed palace door and sighed.

He glanced sideways at Liuli slightly, "You have been with the first queen for so long, do you know when her birthday is?" ”

He had a marriage with Su Rui when he was married, but he rejected that marriage at that time, so he knew very little about Su Rui. Only then did he remember that he didn't even know her birthdate, and as for her death, it was a thorn in his heart, as long as he touched it, it would plunge him into endless darkness.

He could never forget the look at her as she fell into his arms. That gaze tormented him all the time.

Every time he dreamed back in the middle of the night, his heart would ache beyond measure.

It was he who cut off her life with his own hands.

"Hui Majesty." Liuli said, "It's the Shangyuan Festival in the year of Jiazi. ”

Sikong Jin was shocked, and took a step back in shock, "You mean...... Today is her birthday? His voice trembled slightly.

"Yes." Ruri said calmly.

"You go out first." Sikong Jin held the table with one hand, and his eyes were dim, "Let me stay alone for a while." ”

"Yes." Ruri obediently exited the main hall, and she glanced back at the closed palace door behind her, and let out a long sigh.

If you know today, why bother in the first place.
