Chapter 705: Gifts
Shen Run returned to the Jiade Palace, and after entering the study, he ordered people to start a brazier.
The little eunuch lit the brazier and withdrew, and Shen Run stood behind the dragon case, took out one of the pieces from the mountain of musicals, looked at it, and then threw the music into the burning brazier.
He watched as the notebook was set on fire, slowly turning to ashes.
Xia Qinghe's cooperation was expected by him, Xia Qinghe's exclusion in the military department was well known, and there was no lack of encouragement from his secret instructions.
Crowding out this kind of thing, whether it's big or not, whether it's small or not, it all depends on how you look at it.
If Xia Qinghe could really get psychological satisfaction in his official position, he wouldn't care too much about being excluded, but the people who excluded him were not only Longxi people, but also Fengming people, he was a traitor in the eyes of Longxi people, he was also a traitor in the eyes of Fengming people, and traitors would not be respected no matter where they were. Feng Ming people are also laughing at him and squeezing him, he wants to treat himself as Feng Ming people, but he finds that Feng Ming people do not accept him, looking back, he has been excluded by Long Xi people, he has lost his home, this is a problem that no matter how high he sits in an official position, it cannot be solved.
And people's rejection caused him to suffer a lot of difficulties in the performance of his official duties, lost in his position, and also lost in his personal life, and after the initial joy of being reused by the Feng Ming Kingdom, he finally remembered that he was a Longxi person. And this feeling is getting stronger and stronger, otherwise he wouldn't have tried his best to hand over the recital of Feng Mingren's deduction of Long Xiren's salary.
At this time, Xia Qinghe, as long as he pushes him again, he will want to return to the time when he is still a Longxi person.
Shen Run stood in front of the table, quietly watching the notebook burning in the brazier, the flames jumping, flashing with an eerie light, until it gradually burned out and turned into a pile of black ash.
He walked out of the study, and the eunuchs waiting outside rushed in to drive away the ash smoke from the burning.
He summoned Liyun, the palace maid in charge of the Jiade Palace: "Go and find out the pair of red gold pomegranate flower pendants that the emperor gave to my mother." ”
Liyun answered and went.
After the army of Feng Ming Kingdom captured the palace of Longxi Kingdom, everything returned to Chenguang, only the things in the Jiade Hall did not move, and there were still relics left by his mother in the Jiade Palace.
……
It's still hot.
Night.
After bathing in the morning sun, he was loosely wrapped in a milky white silk dress, sitting lazily in front of the dressing table, supporting his cheeks with one hand.
The Phoenix Palace was quiet, only Si Qi stood behind her, combing her long black hair over and over again with a jade comb.
Chenguang's face was not very good, and the tense rhythm of the days made her physically and mentally exhausted, and as soon as she relaxed, she began to fall asleep.
Just as her upper and lower eyelids began to fight, a plain white figure silently appeared beside her, looking at him with a smile in the mirror.
The smell on his body was what she liked, a faint smell of orange, fresh and good in the irritating midsummer.
She opened her eyes and looked at him in the mirror.
Half-leaning on the dressing table, he suddenly took his hand out of his side, and between his slender fingers he held a pendant of red gold and ruby-encrusted pomegranate flowers.
He hooked his lips shallowly, suddenly leaned down to her, caressed her earlobe with one hand, and put the pomegranate flower earring in his hand through her ear piercing and hung on her earlobe.
The good smell emanating from him became more and more intense, prompted by a warmth, sweet and attractive.
The morning light saw the whole process clearly in the mirror, and there was a momentary itch on the earlobe, and then it disappeared.
She shook her head in the mirror, and the light of the candle flame reflected in the earrings became shiny, and she smiled.
Shen Run handed her another earring, she took it and put it on, shook her head twice, and the two pendants hung on the earlobes, and also swayed back and forth.
Shen Run looked at her from the mirror, and a smile spread into his eyes.
"Where did it come from?" Morning Light asked him in the mirror.
"The first emperor rewarded my mother's birthday gift, which was turned out when I was cleaning up old things."
"Huh?" Chenguang was a little surprised, rolled his eyes and thought about it, and said with a smile, "Today is not my birthday." ”
"Your birthday has passed."
"yes, my birthday has long passed." When the envoy of the Chiyang Kingdom visited Qi'an, he had already mentioned that her birthday was approaching, but he was indifferent.
"I wasn't in the mood to celebrate your birthday at that time."
"In the mood now?" Chenguang turned his head, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked with a smile.
Shen Run looked at her smiling face, smiled, and did not answer.
"Do you want to make up for your birthday?" He asked her.
"I don't want to." Chenguang replied dryly, without the slightest hesitation.
This answer was not surprising, but if she could have answered "yes", they might have come closer.
Chenguang stopped combing her hair, she stood up and waved her hand to Si Qi.
Si Qi bent his knees and stepped back silently.
Chenguang took off the ruby earrings from his ears and put them in the jewelry box on the dressing table.
Shen Run stood aside, watching her movements, his eyes flashing slightly.
"You don't like it?" He asked.
Chenguang was slightly stunned, glanced at him, and replied with a smile: "I like it." ”
"Then why don't you wear it?"
"I'm going to sleep, why do I wear a pendant when I sleep?" Chenguang asked suspiciously.
Shen Run's questioning with doubts was something Shen Run couldn't answer, so he had to smile.
Chenguang turned around, sat comfortably on the soft couch under the window, and picked up the sleeping big cat.
The big cat was once again awakened in her sleep and glared at her hatefully. It was hot, it had been shaved off a lot, and it was not happy, and it wanted to bite her, but it didn't dare.
Chenguang hugged the big cat and rubbed it.
Shen Run was still standing on the edge of the dressing table.
"Tired?" He asked, looking at her lazy appearance.
Chenguang nodded vigorously.
"Then you should rest early." Shen Run said, put down her hairpin that was casually fiddling with in her hand, and turned around and walked out.
Chenguang leaned on the soft pillow, hugged the big cat, tilted his head, and looked at him with a light smile.
Shen Run walked all the way to the threshold.
Chenguang looked at him quietly.
Shen Run turned around after crossing the threshold, facing the eyes of the morning light that seemed to be smiling, those eyes flashed with intelligence and cunning.
Her clear gaze pierced through his eyes and rushed straight into his heart, causing him to tremble, and for a moment there was a slight wavering.
Chenguang is the most difficult woman he has ever met in his life, because she will not see him as soon as she sees him, she just wants to fall in love with him and start looking forward to a harmonious life in the next twenty years. Because she is like this, it is terrible for him. He hoped that she would be infatuated with him, but the truth was that he was the only one who had a crush on her, and her feelings for him would always be a lie. He is very unwilling, what he is unwilling to do is, does she really have no heart?
Or is it that just because the object is him, she only treats him as the object of the game, so she won't be sincere with him?
