Remembrance Hibiscus GL

The lights in the palace are dim, the tents are drooping, and the three-legged jade furnace with lotus pattern in the corner emits light mist, and the fragrance overflows, refreshing the heart.Binglun is lying on the side of the couch, breathing lightly and evenly, and the long black and slightly curly eyelashes are deeply covered like butterfly feathers, and the sleeping face is peaceful and beautiful.

She is really tired, standing at the top of power as a woman, worrying about so many things, guarding against so many people, day after day, year after year, it seems that there will never be an end. . . . . .How difficult it is to be able to sleep peacefully, Lian Zhenxin let out a soft sigh, and the smile on her lips faded unknowingly.

"Why are you looking at me all the time?"

Lian Zhen was slightly taken aback, and then coquettishly said, "So you're pretending to be asleep."

Binglun opened his eyes, and lightly reprimanded with a smile: "You didn't close your eyes all night last night, and you didn't go to bed earlier."

Lian Zhen said: "I have a lot of time to sleep, but the chance to look at you like this is very rare."

Her tone was gentle and sweet, as if she came out casually, without any sense of blame or resentment, Binglun said: "Silly boy, why do you like me so much?" Looking at her, his face was thoughtful: "If someday, You don't like me like this anymore, so what do you do?"

"Isn't this something I should be worried about? The empress dowager is the most honorable, there is only what you don't want in the world, and there is absolutely nothing you can't get. For a long time, will you still care about a little girl like me?"

Binglun laughed: "You are no ordinary little girl."

Lian Zhen gave a soft "hmm" and said: "It's nothing more than having a good skin, but the most indispensable thing in the palace is beauties, even the maids are one in a million, maybe someday, I will live." Leaning in the smoked cage and sitting until tomorrow's day."

Binglun scowled: "You mean to make me angry, don't you?"

"Chen and concubine dare not."

Lian Zhen said that he didn't dare, but his star eyes had a narrow smile. Seeing that Binglun was about to turn into anger, he leaned against him, begging for mercy softly: "Okay, I'm sorry, I was just kidding with you." Rubbing lightly in her arms a few times, unable to restrain himself, his lips pressed against the skin of her neck, kissing gently and passionately little by little.Her lips were like petals, soft and delicate, with a faint and pleasant fragrance.Binglun took a light breath, and couldn't help stroking her slender waist with his hands, suddenly felt a slight pain in her neck, as if she had been bitten, and couldn't help letting out a muffled groan.

Xu Shi had just experienced a life-and-death battle, Lian Zhen's desire was stronger than ever, Bing Lun was uncharacteristically passive, and her response was not very passionate, Lian Zhen felt a little lost, only because she was tired today After a while, he let go of his hands and slowly left her, Binglun called out in a low voice: "Lian'er."

"Well, it's late, you go early..."

But Binglun suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him forcefully, the remaining words were sealed between his lips.

Because he had to look at the morning, the sky was not yet bright, and Binglun had already woken up habitually. Seeing that Lianzhen was sleeping soundly, he didn't want to disturb her, so he got out of bed lightly, opened the gauze covering the lamp by himself, finished putting on his clothes, and when he turned around to look, Lian really woke up at some point, and asked in a daze, "What time is it?"

"It's a moment."

"Ah!" Lian Zhen exclaimed, and the remaining drowsiness disappeared instantly: "Why is it so late! Oops, I... I have to go back quickly!" Panicked, she lifted the brocade quilt I want to get out of bed.

Binglun hurriedly stopped her and comforted her, "Don't worry, it's fine."

Lian Zhen blamed herself and was annoyed at the same time: "Why did I sleep so deeply, now that people know about it, what will they think..."

"What do they think, is it important?" Binglun sat on the edge of the bed, holding her shoulders with both hands, not letting her move: "Lian'er, today is different, don't say you only stayed here once Ye, even if you stay here day and night, by my side, no one will dare to say a word, discuss a word in private, if anyone wants to guess, let him guess in his heart."

Her tone was extremely understated, but it carried an indescribably deadly and dangerous aura. Lian Zhen looked at her blankly, but she suddenly smiled again: "It's okay, just go on sleeping."

Lian Zhen lay down again involuntarily, feeling uneasy after all: "But..."

"No but." Binglun frowned slightly, and said: "Be obedient, get a good night's sleep." Gently brushing her index finger across her face, she added: "The waiters are outside, you can call them anytime you want. "

"Are you going?"

"Ah."

Lian Zhen grabbed her sleeve: "Binglun."

Binglun laughed: "You stay here, as if you are in your own palace, there is nothing to be uncomfortable about. Remember that you are the master, so what are you afraid of?"

Lian Zhen shook her head, looked at her, with a longing and cautious expression on her face, and whispered: "After this incident, the world should be stable and peaceful. From now on... you don't have to be as busy as before, and you can No need to fight with others, I just hope that there will be no more bloodshed around me, and we can live in peace."

The smile on the corner of Binglun's mouth froze slightly, but she felt that her pair of smart and beautiful eyes were clear to the bottom, not stained by the slightest dust in the world, making people dare not look directly at her, let alone say something that disappointed her.She lowered her eyes unobtrusively, but saw that her slippery concubine-colored nightgown was slightly open, and her skin was as bright as jade under the overlapping neckline, so she stretched out her hand and pulled it. After a moment of silence, she decided to tell her about it herself. Things: "Lian'er, Zong Mou is dead."

Lianzhen's face changed color, and she sat up slowly: "What?"

"There was chaos during the siege yesterday, he was shot by random arrows..."

"Poor Wen Ying, how sad she will be when she finds out, she..." Lian Zhen was stunned for a long while, her eyes were gloomy, and her heart was extremely sad: "Although I haven't seen it personally, I can still think of what you went through yesterday. What kind of scene, I just hope you come back safe and sound, I thought that would be enough. I don’t want to ask in detail what happened outside, and I dare not ask in detail, pretending that nothing happened. In fact, I Why don't you know how dangerous this battle is, how many people will die, we are reunited, but how many families have been destroyed, how many husband and wife are flesh and blood, just separated by Yin and Yang, Wen Ying is just one of thousands of people Just one..."

"If you want to stabilize the situation, you have to shed blood and sacrifice, and there is nothing you can do about it." Binglun sighed, caressing her back: "I know you and Shen Wenying are sisters, don't worry, I will definitely marry you in the future." They will treat their mother and son well."

No matter how kindly she is treated, it is useless to alleviate her pain. Lianzhen leaned softly on Binglun's shoulder, but she didn't want to say anything more, she just said: "Then, Wen Ying will return to the capital soon. Is that enough?"

Binglun Shou paused in mid-air, and replied: "Yes."

"Shuzhou is far away. She must be heartbroken when she hears the bad news. It's better not to have anything on the way."

Binglun couldn't help but want to tell her "she's not in Shuzhou at all, but in the capital", but she couldn't say it anyway, thinking that this matter can't be explained clearly in a few words, and I should explain it to her in the future, and said: "Then There are many people escorting her, how can something happen." Rubbing her hair, she said softly, "I really have to go, you can rest for a while, don't think about it." Seeing that Lian Zhen still frowned, depressed , I had to speak softly and patiently persuade.

Gao Xian waited outside for half a day, saw her come out, hurriedly stepped forward, waited for her to wash and freshen up, Binglun got up and left the warm pavilion, before stepping out of the threshold, the last trace of tenderness on her face disappeared in an instant.

The atmosphere in the court hall was more dignified and solemn than before. After Huo Mu was captured, Huo Lin and Tan Ying acted quickly to control all the cronies who were attached to Huo Mu and put them in prison. The important ministers of the Ministry of Criminal Justice of Shitai discussed the crimes of Huo Mu and others, and at this moment they stepped forward to play, saying that they had found out all the crimes of Huo Mu and his son. Startled.

Zong Xu didn't expect that Binglun would bring Huo Mu down without compromising. He still couldn't believe it, and he was even more afraid of Binglun. It's just that Huo Mu ended up like this. He was overjoyed, but for his uncle Zong However, the mood was complicated, and there was a vague sense of helplessness, sitting on the throne, as if in a dream, with a demented look on his face.

Yang Yan took a roll of paper from his sleeve, and the first thing he read was Huo Song's crimes, which amounted to more than [-], such as "disrespect to the queen mother and the emperor, arrogating power and disorderly administration", "making friends with cliques, intending to rebel", "killing without authorization". Courtiers, persecuting Zhongliang" and so on, almost all the money is a felony, and Huo Ze is also involved in it, but Huo Mu's crimes are "wrongly governing the family, perverting the law", "taking credit for pride, being domineering" and so on. .Everyone knew that Huo Mu was the father of the Empress Dowager after all, and it was not easy to deal with it severely. His crimes could only be transferred to his son. Anyway, Huo Song has become the soul of the sword.

Needles can be heard in the palace hall of Changle. After Yang Yan finished reading, he bowed and said: "The ministers and others, according to the order of the Queen Mother yesterday, formulated the punishment for Huo Mu and his son. Huo Song committed the felony of treason. Huo Mu relied on his meritorious arrogance, self-importance, lack of strict family management, and ineffective parenting, so he should have been removed from his title and official position, but the officials and others thought that they were the father and brother of the Empress Dowager, and that Huo Mu had made a living for Dayan. Huo Song is dead and cannot be held accountable, and Huo Mu's merits and demerits can be offset, so he can retain the title of prince. As for the other masterminds and party members, they should all be punished by abandoning the market."

After hearing this, Bing Lun said, "Although Huo Mu and Huo Song are my father and brother, at present, the national law does not allow the slightest favoritism. Such a reckless act is a heinous crime. If it is not severely punished, how can we strengthen the court and secure the country? The first emperor confessed? How can he be worthy of the spirit of the king in heaven? Huo Song encouraged Huo Mu to lead his troops into the palace. Ten thousand deaths are not enough to forgive his crime, and his family and children have been harmed. Huo Mu should be demoted to common people and imprisoned for life. According to your proposal."

Yang Yan knelt down and kowtowed: "The Empress Dowager has set an example for the people of the world and the descendants of the future generations in order to uphold the law of the country and destroy relatives with righteousness. I am greatly admired by you!"

All the officials knelt down and praised in unison: "The Queen Mother is wise."

Binglun said: "The King of England has always been loyal to the imperial court. This time he was killed by a traitor and passed away unfortunately. I am deeply saddened and regretful. Starting from today, I will stop court for three days, and the emperor will wear plain clothes for one month to express my condolences."

Zong Xu came to his senses, and said, "I would like to obey my mother's order."

Binglun glanced at all the officials, and said again: "The cabinet and the Ministry of Rites decide on the king's funeral ceremonies, and all funeral ceremonies are generous."

"The ministers obey the order."

After the court, just as Binglun returned to Chongde Palace, Huo Lin arrived on his back.Binglun summoned him in the study and asked, "Do you have any other important things to do?"

Huo Lin had a look of shame on his face: "The humble minister is incompetent. I sent many people out, but I still couldn't find Huo Ze."

"Oh." Binglun said: "I forgot to tell you, Huo Ze has been captured by the iron guards in the palace."

Huo Lin was startled: "Where was he captured? Where is he now?"

Binglun answered irrelevantly: "You have been bullied by him since you were a child, and I know how much you hate him, but from now on, you don't have to worry about his affairs anymore, and you don't have to ask any more questions, just leave it to me. "

"Yes." Huo Rin was a little reluctant, but he quickly let go, looked up at her, and said, "My sister just said that Huo Song rebelled against her family, what is my sister going to do with them?"

He was talking about them, not others, but several children under the knees of Huo Song and Huo Ze. Binglun didn't answer, but asked instead, "How do you think we should deal with it?"

Huo Lin raised his eyebrows, and said almost without hesitation: "To cut the grass, you must get rid of the roots, so as to avoid future troubles!"

Bing Lun pondered for a while, and said: "Their parents have been convicted. Although they are young, they will inevitably be confiscated as slaves. Living like this is also suffering."

The meaning behind the words was already clear, so Huo Lin didn't say anything else, Binglun thought that Lianzhen was still waiting for him in the apse, and said: "I'm a little tired, what's the matter, you can play it another day."

Huo Lin hurriedly said: "Then sister rests first, and I will leave."

It is said that it was three days, but there are people coming and going in Chongde Palace every day, and there are many people who come to lead the decrees and perform events. Gein Huo Mu had an accident, and all the people he recommended and appointed at home and abroad may have to be replaced or transferred. When the trees fell and the monkeys scattered, those courtiers who usually succumbed to Huo Mu's father and son's despotic power, scrambled to be the first to pledge their allegiance to Binglun, for fear of being liquidated; as for those who were framed and framed by him, they waited eagerly, waiting for their grievances to be cleared and rehabilitated; In addition, the civil servants and military generals who made contributions to the king's rescue this time should also be rewarded one by one.

Binglun was much busier than usual, and it took a few days before he got better. Seeing that the capital was calm inside and outside, he issued an order to lift the martial law and reopen the nine city gates.

On the seventh day, Binglun got up early in the morning. After taking a bath, he changed into pure white plain clothes. After eating some bird's nest porridge, he sat quietly in the Nuan Pavilion for a while, and said to Gao Xian: "Order to go down, except for those who come to Huangci Temple , I don’t see anyone today, and Master Chen is no exception.”

"Yes."

He went out to deliver a message in person, then came in quietly, Binglun was silent for a while, and said: "Let someone set up an incense table in the hall." Gao Xian had already felt that she was unusual today, and hearing her say that, he didn't dare to ask a word, said : "Yes." After a while, he replied: "Queen Mother, the incense table is ready."

Binglun walked out of the Nuan Pavilion slowly, and came to the main hall outside. Sandalwood was burned in the hall, and fresh flowers and exquisite tea fruits were placed on the incense table. Without making a sound, she untied her daily purse from her belt and stroked it a few times in her hand , put it on the table, held a few sticks of incense, but did not salute, but slowly closed his eyes and stood for a long time.

Gao Xian didn't know who she was paying homage to, but watching from the side, her face became more and more calm, and no waves could be seen, but the more she was like this, the more inexplicably frightening she felt, and a bone-chilling chill emerged from the bottom of her heart.

After a long time, Wang Youxing said inwardly: "Back to the Empress Dowager, Master Huixian from Huangci Temple is here."

Binglun quickly opened his eyes, without looking at Gao Xian, he said: "I'm going somewhere, just follow me." Gao Xian raised his heart, and immediately replied: "I obey."
