"Bang bang bang", Zong Xu's eyes were full of vigor, and he couldn't stop punching the sandbag in front of him, every time he seemed to use his full strength, a layer of sweat had already appeared on his forehead in a short while.Wei Lun watched from the side, his movements were not taught by Chai Biao at all, he was completely out of order, he beat him violently, after watching for a while, he couldn't help but stepped forward and said softly: "Your Majesty, you have practiced It's been a while, do you want to rest for a while?"

Zong Xu didn't even look at him, and shouted, "Stop talking!"

Wei Lun accompanied him with a smile and said: "Although the emperor is working hard, don't be too greedy. If you hurt the dragon's body, the slaves will not be able to live. I hope the emperor will take pity on the slaves."

Zong Xu pursed his lips tightly, acting as if he couldn't hear, and struck harder and more urgently, until his arms were sore, he stopped panting, took the hot towel from Wei Lun, wiped his hands and face, and said with a sneer: "It hurts!" Dragon body? Do you think anyone cares about me?" Suddenly throwing the towel in his hand on the ground, his voice couldn't restrain his anger: "I am the emperor, and every day I go to court, I become a prisoner. Reading and writing is like archery and martial arts, where you want to go, who you want to meet, you can't make up your own mind at all, now even Chenmu Concubine won't let me see you!"

Wei Lun didn't dare to answer his next words, knelt down and whispered: "Your Majesty, don't say that, you are the master of the world, who in this world would not care about you?"

"Shut up!" Zong Xu grabbed his collar with both hands, and said angrily: "I don't want to hear you talking about these useless things now, I want to see Concubine Chen, I want to see Concubine Chen!"

Wei Lun wept with a mournful face: "Your Majesty, you can only ask the Queen Mother for this matter. Even if you want the slave's life, the slave has no choice."

Zong Xu opened his eyes wide, glared at him fiercely for a while, then slowly let go of his hand, Wei Lun didn't dare to look at him, and whispered: "Your Majesty, look at your sweat, it's time to go back to take a bath and change clothes."

Back in the bedroom, everything needed for bathing was ready. The in-charge inner supervisor brought Simu's maid over to wait on him. After Zong Xu bathed and changed, he went into the Nuan Pavilion. The two maids brought fresh fruit snacks, carefully placed on the Kang table.

Zong Xu took a sip of milk tea, fixed his eyes on the younger maid, and said, "I see that your face is tight, are you new here?"

The court lady was slightly taken aback by the emperor talking to her, and immediately bowed her head respectfully and replied: "Yes."

Zong Xu said: "Raise your head and talk to me." His recent actions have been more restricted than before. Although he is patient in every way in front of Binglun, as if nothing happened, in private, his temper gradually becomes irritable and often suspicious All the people around me are eyes and ears of ice wheels, they often find fault with each other, and get angry over little things, so they are replaced by the maids and eunuchs who are close to them. Changle Palace is on errand.

Looking up at the emperor is a very rude behavior, but the emperor dared not listen to what the emperor said. The maid hesitated, but slowly raised her head. Zong Xu stared at her with dark eyes. He looked uncomfortable, and his cheeks were on fire under tension.

Standing by the side, Wei Lun saw Zong Xu's unusual eyes, and understood what was going on in his heart.The late Emperor Wenzong was licentious and lustful. He once set up a secret room in Changle Palace. In the room, there was a Huanxi Buddha. There were a large number of lifelike erotic pictures painted on the roof and walls. Whenever a courtier presented a beauty to him, he would bring it here for pleasure. After his death, the room was sealed off.Zong Xu was bored in the palace, and found this room by chance that day, out of curiosity, he ordered to open it, and went in with him to have a look.Wei Lun pondered, looking at the current situation, the little emperor must have been moved.

Zong Xu waved his hand: "You all go down to me, and she is left to serve here alone."

Wei Lun stepped forward with a smile, wanting to speak out to dissuade him: "Your Majesty, this..."

Zong Xu said: "Get out!"

Wei Lun was too scared to say any more, so he had to lead the others out.Zong Xu still looked at the maid, and said, "Take off your clothes."

The court lady suspected that she had heard wrong, her face turned pale: "Your Majesty."

"I told you to take off your clothes." Zong Xu said impatiently with a cold face, "Don't you understand what I said?"

Wei Lun was worried, and waited outside for a long time, when the palace door finally opened, the palace maid covered her face with her hands and came out quickly, and he hurriedly chased after him: "Wait, I have something to ask you." Then The palace maid didn't seem to hear, she ran away crying, Wei Lun froze, stomped her feet on the ground, turned around and entered the hall.

Entering the Nuan Pavilion, seeing Zong Xu sitting on the kang, his face red and his clothes disheveled, Wei Lun had all kinds of guesses in his heart, and tentatively said: "Your Majesty, what happened?"

Zong Xu glanced at him, but did not speak, so Wei Lun had no choice but to clarify: "Your Majesty, have you met her?" Looking up at his expression, he said cautiously, "If you have met her, She must be recorded, in case a prince is born..."

Zong Xu said: "Then record it."

"If the Empress Dowager knows about this..."

"So what if she knows?" Zong Xu interrupted him, raising his eyebrows: "I'm about to get married, shouldn't I do this?"

In the previous dynasty, the emperors who practiced their age usually married earlier, basically between the ages of 12 and 15. Since the founding of Dayan, except for Zongxu, only Emperor Renzong was enthroned at a young age, and he was also married at the age of 12. According to the book According to the court rules, before the little emperor gets married, the palace must select a few older and good-looking court ladies to send them to the bedroom to teach them about room curtains. Although Zong Xu is young, he is familiar with the various palace rules set by his ancestors Xin, so he immediately refuted it.

Wei Lun was not worried about whether the emperor was really lucky with the court lady, but he was afraid that this matter would involve Zong Xu secretly entering the closed room to enjoy the erotic palace, and then he would not be able to escape the responsibility. Seeing what Zong Xu said, he immediately fell silent , stepped forward silently, and changed another hot tea for him by himself.

Zong Xu seemed to be extremely thirsty, he almost gulped down his drink, and said, "I heard that Emperor Renzong once said that only a man who has touched a woman can be considered a real man. Get married and start a career." Putting down the teacup, he looked at Wei Lun: "I will get married next year, and after the wedding, I will hold a grand ceremony for the government soon."

Throughout the morning, Binglun discussed with the cabinet ministers and officials of the household department in the front hall of Chongde Palace about disaster relief in Yuzhou. Yuzhou was heavily snowed in November, and countless people died of freezing and starvation. The memorials were delivered to the capital one by one by flying horse. However, the imperial court suffered from internal and external wars for many years, and the household department had little surplus. Binglun had to use the money held in the treasury by the internal nuns to temporarily transfer it to Yuzhou to relieve the urgent need.

After discussing all matters one by one, all the ministers gradually withdrew. Huo Lin waited in the side hall for a long time, when he heard Binglun moving to the study, he immediately followed her and reported to her about the settlement of the King's troops.

Binglun said: "Listening to what you said, everything has been settled?"

Huo Lin said: "Yes."

Binglun raised his eyelids: "Is there nothing wrong?"

Huo Lin is a sensible person, and upon hearing this, he knew that Binglun had heard something, so he had to confess: "The King of England's confidantes suspected that there was something wrong with his death, intending to incite other people, and wanted to avenge the King of England. Infiltrated the palace of the King of England, but the matter has now subsided."

"Are they all dead?"

Huo Lin said: "Yes."

"The King of England is quite popular. If other people know about this, how can they let it go?"

"Others haven't had time to know, even if they know, the old troops of the King of England have been dispersed into the various military camps and generals of the states, and there will be no trouble." Huo Lin looked up at Binglun, and said: "However, I suspect that the Queen of England has died. Zhizong seeks the truth about his death, which is a hidden danger."

Bing Lun said: "Even though Princess Ying is a woman, she has a straightforward temper and doesn't pretend to be good at pretending. When she goes to the palace every day, she can only see the grief, there is nothing unusual about it."

Huo Lin said: "Since sister said so, I feel relieved."

Binglun said: "In the future, when dealing with matters, you should not make such omissions again. People's words are terrible. If some words are spread, you should know what the consequences will be."

Huo Lin was full of shame: "Yes, I was careless this time."

Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Binglun asked, "What's wrong?"

Huo Lin said in a low voice: "The guard came to report to me today. He has been looking crazy lately, and he is clamoring to see you every day."

"Him?" Binglun was startled, and immediately understood that he was referring to Huo Mu. She thought for a while and said, "After you go back, release that Nepalese princess and their son, and lock them up together with him."

Huo Lin looked surprised: "This...doesn't it reunite their family?"

"That's right." Binglun said indifferently: "I just want to reunite their family."

Huo Lin knew his sister's temperament, so he didn't say any more, just said: "Rin'er will follow my sister's order." Binglun said: "If there is nothing else, you can quit."

Huo Lin said: "There is one more thing. I heard that there was a snowstorm in Yuzhou. My sister ordered the palace to be frugal and greatly reduce the expenses for the New Year. I would like to ask my sister that on the night of the first day of the next year, I will still visit the Chaoyangmen tower to watch the fireworks as in previous years. , to accept the worship of hundreds of officials, this must not be changed."

Binglun said: "The disaster situation in Yuzhou is so serious, I don't have the heart to watch the fireworks and song and dance performances, I can avoid it."

Huo Lin said: "The countries in the Western Regions have surrendered now, and they will send envoys to Beijing during the Chinese New Year. When all nations come to the court, all the celebrations must not only be the same as usual, but also more grand, so as to show our grand demeanor as a great country."

Binglun frowned and kept silent, Huo Lin finally couldn't bear her worrying about disaster relief, and said softly: "Rin'er knows that the household department has no money left, and my sister is anxious about it. The imperial court's is only a very small part, and the rest is privately kept and hidden in various places in the mansion, and it can be used now."

"You think he embezzled so much gold for himself, don't I know?" Binglun shook his head slightly, and said, "Why do you think I gave you the General's Mansion?"

Huo Lin was stunned: "Did my sister give me all the gold?"

Binglun said: "That batch of gold can't be moved now no matter what. After you ascend the throne, they can help you stabilize your heart and come in handy."

Huo Lin suddenly came to his senses, filled with joy and gratitude, and suddenly knelt down on his knees: "Rin'er is confused, my sister is thoughtful for Lin'er, with good intentions and painstaking efforts, such a deep kindness, in this lifetime, Lin'er can never repay her!"

After Huo Lin left, Gao Xian ordered the meal to be served outside, Binglun was full of worries and had no appetite, so he drank half a bowl of soup and then put it down, holding a Buddhist bead in his right hand, pacing back and forth on the ground.

Wang Youxing came in quietly from the outside, and said: "Queen Mother, someone from Changle Palace just came over, saying that the Emperor had the honor of a court lady today."

"What?" Binglun stopped suddenly, turned around, Gao Xian was also extremely surprised, and looked at Wang Youxing with both eyes.

Wang Youxing recounted the details, Binglun couldn't see any expression on his face, and asked: "Then did they examine the maid?"

"I've had it checked, and I said it looks like she's still a virgin." Wang Youxing said hesitantly: "It's just... just that there are many bruises between the chest and abdomen, and there are scratches all over the body..."

Binglun said: "Enough."

Wang Youxing shut up immediately, the room was silent for a while, Binglun sat down on the chair, and said slowly: "The emperor is still a child, it's just for fun, there is no need to mention this matter in the future."

"Yes."

"There is one thing that you two must keep in mind." Binglun was silent for a moment, and then said again: "After a while, there will be a lot of rumors in Chaozhongjing, I want you to take care of everyone in the palace. Mouth, just a few words, can't be passed on to the harem, do you understand?"
