At the empty corner of the corridor, Mu Ling stopped and turned to face me, staring at me for a moment before speaking: "Song Liu, today is my aunt's birthday, and she is in a very good mood. If you don't mind, I want to ask my aunt to make you the concubine of King Ding'an, I don't know if you ......" She didn't finish her words, but I already understood what she meant, so I only smiled calmly, "The princess doesn't have to think like this at all, I can only be friends with King Ding'an, and it is impossible for me to become husband and wife." ”

Mu Ling was stunned, turned sideways to look out of the corridor, and said softly: "Song Liu, you can't understand the helplessness of being an emperor's family. Brother Haoxuan has never asked for what he wants since he was a child, except for her. I know very well who the "she" in her mouth is, it's me, it's Chu Zhenluo, but now I'm just Song Liu.

"Brother Haoxuan's only wife in his heart is called Zhen Luo, she was the daughter of General Chu back then, but she was just ......" Mu Ling paused when he said this, and now I don't have much emotion when I hear others mention the name General Chu and Zhen Luo.

"I know, I once heard him mention that the woman named Zhen Luo has been dead for many years." I said calmly.

Mu Ling looked back at me again, his eyes a little surprised, "He told you everything?" He never mentioned it to outsiders. This really proves that he doesn't treat you as an outsider. He said that you look very similar to Zhen Luo, especially the eyes. ”

"Zhen Luo is dead, he should be relieved. I resemble the woman, but I'm not her. So in the future, the princess will no longer mention the matter of a side concubine to Song Liu. As soon as these words came out, Mu Ling fell silent and did not speak again.

In the midst of singing and dancing, the banquet has begun, and the emperor has already returned to Qixiang Palace to deal with political affairs. Empress Mu is in the upper seat in the center, and Feng Zhaoyi is in the lower seat next to the queen. Inside the palace, the seat is also a status symbol. The closer she is to the emperor or the queen's position, the higher her status in the palace will be.

Look at all the mothers, princesses, princesses, and princesses all congratulate and toast Queen Mu. I stood next to Feng Zhaoyi and looked at the excitement of this area, but my heart drifted away.

"Song Liu, toast a glass of wine to the queen mother for the palace." Feng Zhaoyi's words brought me back to my senses, and I was stunned for a moment. Feng Zhaoyi smiled at me, "Go ahead!" And handed me a full glass of wine, I hesitantly took it, and walked towards the position of Queen Mu.

"Why doesn't my sister personally toast the palace and ask your maid to replace it." Queen Mu glared at me and said coldly.

Feng Zhaoyi got up from her seat and walked slowly to my side, "My sister doesn't drink much, besides, the doctor said that my sister is not suitable for drinking, and I hope that my mother will forgive me, I remember that my mother doesn't like Song Liu very much, so it's better to let Song Liu give you a drink, and it should be a reparation." ”

Empress Mu snorted coldly, "Such a lowly maidservant is not qualified to toast to this palace." As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at me.

"Auntie, please take this drink! Today is your birthday, so don't let that discourage you. Mu Ling next to him said softly. Queen Mu glanced at Mu Ling with disdain, "When will Ling'er help outsiders." ”

"Mother, when did the handmaid become a lowly person in your mouth?" Rong Haoxuan Huo Ran got up and stared at Queen Mu expressionlessly. Seeing that the mother and son were about to start a war because of me again, I immediately knelt on the ground, "Queen Mother, please calm your anger." "My kneeling attracted the eyes of a large number of people, and those who didn't know thought that I had offended Queen Mu and were begging for forgiveness.

Queen Mu unexpectedly said, "Get up!" "I know that she has always taken care of her son.

I got up slowly, but I accidentally broke the wine glass on the ground, and I was so panicked that I couldn't open my mouth, I don't know what kind of anger this will cause Queen Mu to be angry.

However, Empress Mu only casually handed a glass of wine on the table to Feng Zhaoyi, "It's more appropriate for my sister to respect the palace!" Feng Zhaoyi took it with a faint smile, "The concubine should respect the queen's mother, but can you let Song Liu drink it instead of the palace, the palace is really not suitable for drinking." Queen Mu paused, revealing a smile that really couldn't be called a laugh, "Since my sister is really shirking, this palace is not reluctant, let Song Liu replace you!" ”
