Everyone was shrouded in an inexplicable silence, and they didn't speak for a moment. In the end, it was Gong Yuling, who smiled slightly, walked to Han Ruo's side, and rubbed her like a supple kitten, and the clean smell of his body got into Han Ruo's nose, unconsciously making her relax. Seeing that her expression softened, Gong Yuling opened his mouth to break the silence: "Imperial sister, isn't this a double happiness?" ”

Han Ruo finally smiled when he heard this, and rubbed his head, it is Han Ruo's nineteenth birthday, plus the fact that he is pregnant, isn't it double happiness. On the first birthday after ascending the throne, the ministers naturally advocated a grand and grand event, Han Ruo was unwilling at first, why be so extravagant and wasteful, but they couldn't help but invite again and again, saying that this was a good time to promote the prestige of the country, and even Gong Jinbing said that the banquet would indeed help Liwei, and Han Ruo reluctantly agreed. But with a stroke of the pen, fifty percent of the budget was deducted, but it was a headache for a group of officials in the Ministry of Rites.

And what surprised Han Ruo was that Sheng Ruiguo came to Haohao Tangtang and a team of people, although it was a congratulation in name, he always felt that it was more than that. As soon as he thought of the young monarch who always surprised people, Han Ruo felt a faint uneasiness in his heart. And Gong Jinbing, who has always known how to see through Han Ruo best, knew her worries when she saw the expression on Han Ruo's face, and he also saw through Sheng Rui's intentions, but he was not ready to tell Han Ruo, but put it in his heart for the time being. However, it was the smile that Cheng Zhu had in his chest and a ghost in his heart that fell into Han Ruo's eyes, and when he asked him, he smiled and said nothing, which made Han Ruo sulk for a long time.

Not to mention this matter, Han Ruo took several husbands to attend the grand birthday banquet together, and it was indispensable to have cumbersome etiquette and tired singing and dancing. Then there was the part of the envoys of various countries to present gifts, and Sheng Ruiguo should have been the first to come out but for some reason gave this opportunity to other countries. Han Ruo was secretly puzzled while sitting on the throne, but the smile on Gong Jinbing's lips next to him became more and more weird. In the end, it was the Emperor Palace's secret that reminded Han Ruo, "Presumably the best is yet to come." Han Ruo glanced at Gong Jueshen suspiciously, but found that his expression was even colder than usual, as if he was angry about something.

Han Ruo was confused, and after the lengthy gift list was read, the envoy of Sheng Ruiguo suddenly walked to the center, and the entourage behind him held an incomparably exquisite treasure chest in his hand. He respectfully opened the treasure chest, stretched out his hands and carefully pulled out the real gift from the box with the velvet chassis.

If Han looked closely on the throne, the things in the hands of the messenger could make all women lose their minds. It was a beautiful crown made of thousands of diamonds and embellished with countless pearls and gemstones. Sparkling and dazzling in the light of the lights.

The envoy looked at everyone with satisfaction as they were impressed by the crown, with a look of both spirit and respect on his face, and said: "This is the crown of the previous queen of Shengrui Kingdom, and it is also the heirloom of Shengrui Kingdom, in our country, it symbolizes the highest glory and power. Today, by order of our great king, I dedicate it to Her Majesty, the queen of the Tang Xia Kingdom. ”

The words of the envoy sounded in the main hall, and a burst of whispers was set off in the crowd, and people speculated about the power of the empress, and even Sheng Rui's young and vigorous king was willing to present the treasure of the country, which was really staggering. The emperors and nobles on both sides of the throne had different expressions. Ruyi Guijun Gong Jinbing has always had a smile on his mouth that people can't see through, and there is obviously a smile on his face, but in fact he is not smiling, this feeling makes people at a loss and uneasy. And the Emperor Palace Jue Shen kept a cold face from beginning to end, pursed his lips, and his cold eyes could almost freeze people into frost.

The empress's expression was a little inexplicable, there was a faint smile floating on her lips, neither happy because Sheng Rui paid tribute to such a treasure, nor angry because of the envoy's arrogant attitude, but showed a strange calmness, she spoke, her voice seemed a little ethereal, and above the main hall sounded with supreme might: "Sheng Rui tribute such a treasure, presumably don't ask for something, right?" Although it was a question, it was obvious that she already knew the answer. Only then did she understand the reason why Jin Bing's weird smile and trick were sulking.

Sure enough, Sheng Rui's envoy gave the answer she had guessed in her heart: "Your Majesty the Queen, I, the great King of Sheng Rui, wish to use this crown as a dowry to ask Her Majesty the Queen to marry the king's younger brother, Duke Bird." ”

Even if he knew the answer, as soon as he said this, it still made people feel depressed for a while, Han Ruo's face suddenly became much colder, and his tone was indifferent, and he replied: "As far as I know, Duke Bird has married my lord Sheng Rui Ningxin. The implication is to reprimand Sheng Rui for being so bold and daring to ask the lord of Tang Xia to marry the duke as a concubine.

"Her Majesty the Queen is angry, we naturally dare not grieve Her Majesty, and Her Majesty will naturally be the only Duchess." The messenger is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Bold!" This rebuke did not come from the mouth of the empress Han Ruo, but from the emperor's palace juiche burst out angrily, "Sheng Rui is just a vassal of my Tang Xia, and he dares to ask our lord to marry a little duke!" Even if you marry your king, it is an insult to us Tang Xia! ”

The envoy seemed to have expected such a result, bowed respectfully, and spoke again: "Our King Xià said that if Sheng Rui unfortunately does not have this glory to marry Tang Xia, then I hope that Her Majesty the Queen can come to Sheng Rui to make up for my king's regrets." ”

Gong Jinbing smiled and asked, "What if our majesty doesn't go?" ”

"Tang Xia is a big country, I believe that the lord of Tang Xia will not be a coward, and my country dares to guarantee the safety of Her Majesty the Queen in Shengrui. If the Queen is unable to accept the sincere invitation of our King, I think that in the near future the King of China will visit her in person. The envoy's eyes flashed, this was the plan of the King of Shengrui. Expecting that Han Ruo would inevitably refuse to propose, he retreated and invited Han Ruo to Shengrui in person, if not, he would threaten to meet each other.

This is a dilemma, if Han Ruo agrees, it is difficult to guarantee that he will be assassinated on the way to Shengrui, and Shengrui can also rely on this matter; If you don't go, the rumors will go out, and it will only say that Tang Xia is afraid of Sheng Rui, and Sheng Rui can even use this momentum to contact the surrounding small countries and attack Tang Xia. The king of Sheng Rui has always been ambitious, and he is eyeing Tang Xia, how can Han Ruo not know. But he didn't expect him to use his birthday to use the matter of his birth to use such a poisonous scheme.

Han Ruoshang was silent, and Gong Jinbing suddenly spoke: "I'll go." ”
