Chapter 26 Phoenix Eyes

In a trance, Li Shushen walked to Chuntang Garden unknowingly.

The flowers of the crabapple blossoms in the trees are bright and full, trembling, floating, fragrant, refreshing. Shushen likes crabapple, but not just like its patterns, but the crabapple has had a graceful and luxurious temperament since ancient times. It is not like the king of peonies standing among flowers, nor is it as beautiful as roses, but has its unique color. This makes her especially love.

Shushen walked to the flower and wanted to pick one and hold it in her hand to play with it, but she didn't expect a breeze to blow by, and all the petals floated past her hands. She smiled slightly and gave up.

There is a guqin in the Huayue Pavilion in Chuntang Garden. Shushen looked very familiar. That was what she ordered someone to put there a few days ago.

Suddenly, she seemed to see her figure waving the strings of the piano standing in front of her. The person opposite her smiled and looked at her affectionately. How long ago was it, and it didn't seem long. Just a few days ago, she and Chu Luo played the piano and lyrics under the moonlight. Now, she is the only one left.

Li Shushen walked forward and sat alone in Chuntang Garden to stroke the strings of the piano. The sound of the piano was swaying, both swaying and frustrating, deep, gentle but passionate. Shushen's jade hands were frivolous, and he saw the slender jade fingers playing quickly on the strings. The moonlight was like light, and the sound of the piano echoed in the bleak place. After the song "Love Mission", tears were hidden in the corner of Li Shushen's eyes.

Sing slowly and dance slowly and the bamboos are gathered, and the king cannot see enough in the end.

But her king never kept his eyes on her.

Thinking of this, Shushen almost burst into tears.

"This song should only be found in heaven, how many times can I hear it in the world?"

The moment the familiar voice sounded behind her, Li Shushen almost suspected that it was her own illusion. The moment she turned around and saw Chu Luo, tears burst into tears.

She looked back and saw dozens of people standing behind the emperor, Cheng Dehai and He Sheng both stood on both sides with their hands behind their backs. She couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that she was too obsessed just now and didn't even hear such a big noise.

She bent down to pay tribute to the emperor, but the tears in the corners of her eyes were hard to hold back.

At this moment, Li Shushen was extremely grateful for the long night. Because of this, he could not see the tears at the corners of her eyes. She always had a noble and graceful attitude in front of him, which was enough.

Chu Luo stepped forward to support Shushen and said with a smile, "The Queen played the song just now, so she was very good."

Shushen quietly reached out to touch the tears on his cheeks, and said calmly, "I just played casually and didn't see the emperor coming."

When she said this, Chu Luo found that there were still tears on the corners of her eyes. After looking around, he saw that there was no palace servant around the queen. He thought she must have suffered some grievances, and his tone couldn't help but increase a little. "The palace servants in Fengluan Palace are really ignorant of the rules. How can the queen sit alone at night? It's really a punishment!"

Shushen changed his color when he heard this and said blessedly, "The emperor misunderstood. It was because I wanted to relax alone, so I sent the palace people back..."

When Chu Luo heard this, his face calmed down a little, pondered for a moment, and smiled warmly, "If the queen has any worries, it's better to say to me."

Shushen's heart trembled. He looked at the palace people standing around. Suddenly, he thought that Chuntangyuan was the only way to go from Mingde Palace to Chonghua Palace. He knew it clearly and bowed, "What can I have to worry about? It's because life in the palace is too boring, so I want to come out to relax." After speaking, she looked at the Minghuanglong chassis carried by the four people, and a smile appeared on her lips, "Your Majesty is going to the Xianfei Palace? You'll still not disturb the emperor."

Chu Luo's eyes were deep, thinking that he had ordered Zhong Yuxiu to replace the queen today, which must have caused criticism from everyone. At this time, he saw the queen playing the piano alone, and felt unbearable. So he waved his hand and shut up everyone and said in a deep voice, "Is the queen dancing for Meiren Zhong?"

Shu Shen's eyes were shocked, and she smiled and said, "How can I be upset about this little thing? Sister Zhong dances very well and is appreciated by the Queen Mother. It is best to perform at the Queen Mother's birthday party to cheer her up. I am really happy for her."

Before he finished speaking, Chu Luo could already hear the strangeness in her words.

After all, they are young couples. Although they have been very distant since they got married, Chu Luo still knows Li Shushen after living together for so many years. She is like this now, it doesn't seem like she sincerely congratulates her.

He held her hand and sighed, "You are the queen. You want to do things that suit your identity. I know you want to make the Queen Mother smile, but if you play this kind of thing in the classroom, it's better to leave it to others."

She chuckled for a moment when she heard this. Chu Luo told her that she was the queen and wanted to do things that suit her identity. The empress dowager also told her. So since she is the queen, what should she do? She takes into account the overall situation and advises the emperor to enjoy the rain and dew, and thus give up her children's love. In the past seven years, she did not do this on this day? When she was in the palace, they praised the princess Lin'an for being smart and thrifty, and was diligent and thrifty when she entered the palace. When people entered the palace, the world said that the queen was virtuous and kind, and was a model of virtuous queen. Is this what she wanted? The glory on the face and the lonely behind her back. Don't she want to be a woman like Shen Chang'an? She has the sincerity of her sweetheart, and is immersed in love with only one person's heart all day long.

But she couldn't, just because she was the daughter of the royal family when she was born, and she wanted to become the queen. So from the beginning, she was destined that she would never become Shen Chang'an.

At this moment, decades of gratitude and wrong hatred came to my heart in an instant, and only made her feel so heavy that she could not breathe.

Seeing that her eyebrows were getting more and more sad, Chu Luo couldn't help calling her out of nowhere.

"Shushen..."

He called her and pulled her out of the heavy memories of the past.

She stared at him, and the outline between his eyebrows was still so beautiful. She accepted it just for the person in front of her. Even if she asked her to die immediately now, she was willing to do so.

"The emperor hasn't heard me playing the piano carefully yet? I didn't count it, so how could I play another song?" She raised her eyes, her eyes full of love from her daughter's family when she was young.

He nodded gently, "Okay."

The emperor and the empress held hands on the pavilion. At one glance, the figure looked very similar to the 16-year-old Princess Lin'an and the 17-year-old Princess Lin'an.

Li Shushen sat behind the guqin and played it lightly. Her song was played by the famous "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix".

After the song, Chu Luo slid his hands and smiled slightly, "The Queen's skill in playing the piano is becoming more and more superb." After that, he seemed to be trapped in deep memories. "I thought when I was young, I knew that my cousin playing the piano in Luoyang City was so exquisite. I had never heard it carefully. When I heard it today, it was really extraordinary."

She smiled slightly, but said nothing.

However, he had already stood up and whispered with a smile, "It's getting late, so the queen should go back to the palace to rest earlier."

Only this sentence, she could hear his urgent words, so she stood up and bowed, "I respectfully send you to the emperor."

Chu Luo nodded and got on the sedan chair. Her eyes gradually left with the dragon chassis, and she refused to look back.

When Chu Luo arrived in Chonghua Hall, it was already three o'clock. At that time, Chang'an was wearing a plain bedding and sitting in front of the mirror to dress up. When she saw Chu Luo, she quickly left the silver jewelry in her hand and rushed towards him.

She snuggled in his arms and murmured, "Why did it come so late? I thought you wouldn't come tonight."

Chu Luo gently stroked the three thousand black hairs that had fallen from her and comforted her warmly, "Aren't I here?" He pondered for a moment, and then spoke again, "I just met the queen on the way here."

When Chang'an heard this, he raised his head from Chu Luo's arms and said in confusion, "Queen? What are she doing outside so late?"

Chu Luo sighed lightly and said in a deep voice, "I think so too, so I stopped and talked to her for a while."

When Chang'an heard this, he immediately broke free from Chu Luo's arms and pretended to be angry, "Then what have you said?"

Chu Luo's mouth raised slightly, and his smile was full of indulgence and pampering, "Do you really want to know?"

"Of course." Chang'an walked straight to the front of the collapse and poured a cup of tea, saying to Chu Luo, "Come and sit down."

Chu Luo smiled helplessly, walked to Chang'an, and looked at her with great interest.

Chang'an also poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip. Before he spoke, "I haven't seen the queen for many days. She was suddenly neglected, and I'm afraid she's not feeling well."

When Chu Luo heard this, he pondered slightly, "Even you think I have neglected the queen?"

Chang'an suddenly smiled, "Otherwise? I'm really a little lucky that I'm not the first to marry you."

Chu Luo frowned repeatedly when he heard this, "What are you saying? Even if you are the first to marry me, can I still not like you?"

Chang'an stuck out his tongue and said angrily, "That's not accurate."

Chu Luo also became interested, raised his eyebrows and asked, "How do you say this?"

"The first person to marry you must be the one who has been with you for the longest time. Even if you are familiar with everything about her, it will inevitably be difficult for you to have new interests in her. Old love is not as good as new love, which is always the same."

After hearing Chang'an's words, Chu Luo burst into laughter, "You have been married to me for four years, which is not a short time, but when did you see me lose interest in you?"

When Chang'an heard this, he put down the teacup in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said sternly, "You dare to do it too!"

Chu Luo smiled helplessly, reached out to rub her hair, and said warmly, "If you are my first wife, would you like to be my queen?"

Chang'an's eyes were raised lightly, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry. She pondered for a moment, and Fang Qiao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether the queen does it or not. I am willing to be a favorite concubine for the rest of my life!"

"Oh?" Chu Luo approached her slightly, and his warm breath gently brushed her ears, "Then I let you see, what's good about being a favorite concubine..."

Before Chang'an could react, Chu Luo picked her up, lifted the curtain, and walked into the bedroom.
