The study room is quiet, the bamboo curtains are blown by the cool wind, and the lotus fragrance is sent in, which is refreshing.After reading the memorial from Xijiang, Binglun gently leaned his head on the back of the chair, closed his eyes and meditated for a while, then got up again, and read the manuscript again. Before he could pick up his pen, the eunuch came to report: "The Queen Mother , Manager Tan has arrived."

Binglun put down his pen: "Tell him to come in."

Because Wanfang Qinghe was built on the water, it is only connected by bridges on all sides, and every entrance is guarded by imperial guards. Hearing what she said, Xian didn't dare to stay for a while, and immediately bowed and left.

Tan Ying came in to salute, Bing Lun said: "Tomorrow I want to visit the Grand Campus in person to watch the training of the Imperial Forest Army. I have already told Xia Houjin that you will go with me when the time comes."

"Yes."

Bing Lun stared at him: "Imperial Iron Guards are responsible for the safety of the Emperor and me, and they will never let up in daily training. As the manager, you should always keep this in mind."

Tan Ying hurriedly said: "I understand."

"Has there been any movement in Shuzhou recently?"

Tan Ying said: "My lord is secretly summoning all skilled craftsmen in Shuzhou to Jincheng, intending to manufacture large quantities of swords, knives, axes, shields, armor, bows and arrows and other equipment."

Binglun said: "He has reported all these to me in a secret letter."

The imperial guards are the emperor's personal guards, and the chief and deputy chiefs are all served by the emperor's confidantes, which is equivalent to the emperor's direct management. Except for the emperor and the general manager, no one knows exactly how many people it has, and its duties are not limited to protecting the emperor's safety. Some of them are privately called dark guards by the emperor, and they do not stay in the palace on weekdays. He went out as an ordinary person to spy on actions and speeches that might threaten the imperial power and endanger the court, and even resorted to assassination when necessary.

Because Zongxu ascended to the throne at a young age, after Binglun came to court, Yu Jianfeng and the imperial guards led by her directly obeyed her orders, and she also controlled the hidden guards who moved around in private. After the assassination incident, Yu Jianfeng was demoted to Guangzhou. In the Lexing Palace, Binglun single-handedly promoted Tan Ying and Ran Li. In addition, he dispatched more hidden guards, who spread all over Beijing, border areas, and Shuzhou to secretly inquire about the news, and then with a specific method, secretly reported to Binglun's ear.

Hearing what Binglun said, Tan Ying said, "Your Highness puts all his energy and thoughts on the governance of Shu Province and the expansion of the army, and he has not done anything else recently."

Binglun glanced at him, and said slowly: "I heard that officials from Guanghan and Jiangyang counties sent several beauties to the palace to flatter him. Is there such a thing?"

Tan Ying was startled, and hurriedly said: "It is true, but there was news the day before yesterday that the prince ordered those two officials and returned the beauties, so I didn't report the matter to the Queen Mother. I also ask the Queen Mother to forgive me."

Binglun smiled faintly: "It's really rare for the King of England and the Concubine Wang to have such a deep love as husband and wife."

Seeing that she didn't intend to blame her, Tan Ying was a little relieved, thought for a while, and then said in a low voice: "I think that Prince Ying is an upright and honest person, and the Queen Mother can rest assured of him."

"I see." Binglun nodded, "Go down."

"Yes, Wei Chen retire."

The tea on the table was already cold, Binglun picked it up and took a sip, frowned slightly, and called: "Come here." Gao Xian hurriedly came in, Binglun stood up: "Tell Ran Li, I want to Go out for a walk."

Outside is the scorching sun, flowing gold and stones, the courtyard of Wutong Academy is deep, but it is shaded by flowers and trees, full of greenery.

Bing Lun held a red bow in his hand, took a feathered arrow from Gao Xian, put it on the bow, and fixed his eyes on the swan who was fifty paces away.

When she was six years old, she saw her father teach her brothers how to archery, so she wanted to learn it too.The ancestors of the Huo family started out with military exploits and set strict rules. Every generation of the Huo family has to receive training in swordsmanship, archery, and riding since they were young. Huo Mu felt gratified and regretful when he saw that she was interested. Driven by this complicated mood, not only did she not object, but instead arranged a courtyard to teach her riding and archery and other homework in her spare time. Unexpectedly, although she is a daughter, she has a very high understanding of martial arts, and she has a deep understanding of the way of martial arts. Born with an indomitable tenacity, it didn't take long before she left her brothers far behind. Huo Mu was greatly surprised. After that, every year after that, he led his children to hunt with him in autumn and winter, and she was also very happy. Keen on this kind of activity, he often travels in military uniform, shines in the hunting ground and gains a lot.

When she was 11 years old, Huo Mu once talked with her about marching formations, military tactics, and she talked endlessly. Even Huo Mu was impressed by her resourcefulness, and praised: "If you are a man, you will definitely be able to inherit the Huo family. It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity!" He had a deep personality and was not easy to show his emotions, so he sighed three times that day, and the disappointment and regret in his eyes are still deeply in her memory.

Later, Huo Mu became more and more busy and didn't have time to teach them in person, so the Confucian warriors supported by the Huo Mansion continued to teach them, and she still enjoyed special treatment until two years before entering the palace. Homework, no longer showing her face in public, staying in her attic every day, and began to quietly do what Miss Huo's family should do. . . . . .After entering the palace, there is even less opportunity to touch those things. . . . . .

But today, holding this bow in my hand, the feeling is still familiar. Those skills that I have learned since I was a child seem to be carved into my bones, and I will never forget them. I will never forget them, and those people , those things that happened. . . . . .

Binglun's eyes narrowed slightly, and a gleam of cold light burst out, and the arrow shot out like a shooting star, with a faint sound of wind, and a sound of "Duo", penetrated deeply into the little red heart, Ran Li stood by and watched, unable to bear it. Everyone cheered loudly: "Okay!"

Binglun shook his head: "I haven't touched a bow and arrow for many years, and I'm a lot familiar with it. Although I haven't missed my head, my strength is quite lacking."

Ran Li didn't expect that this young queen mother is not only well versed in tactics, but also able to wield bows and arrows, so he felt a little kind, so he said: "The queen mother is worthy of being a female general, a hero among females, it is truly unprecedented Girl, my humble minister is so impressed."

Binglun glanced at him, and said: "When did you learn to flatter horses?" The smile on the corners of his lips subsided slightly: "Next year I will take the emperor to Xiyan Mountain to hunt, and now I have to prepare for it. From now on, you will come here to practice archery and swordsmanship with me for an hour every two days."

Ran Li was stunned: "This..."

"You are a top-notch expert among the iron guards, and you are also my personal bodyguard. It is only appropriate for you to guide me."

Ran Li hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "I would never dare to take the word "pointing out", but if it is said to practice with the Queen Mother, I will obey the order."

Binglun smiled slightly, handed the bow and arrow to Gao Xian, and said, "Let's go."

In a blink of an eye, Lianzhen's birthday is approaching, although there are old rules to follow in the palace, but Lianzhen and Su Yun are in charge of the harem, this birthday is different than usual, Su Yun personally decides, and a big banquet began three days ago, There is constant play and music in the garden, and the arrangements are extremely lively.Both Binglun and Zongxu were generously rewarded, and the rest of the palaces, court orders, etc. all had generous gifts.

On the first day, Binglun brought Zong Xu to the Xizichun Pavilion, and after lunch, they went to Xianyin Pavilion to watch a play and a song and dance performance.Binglunsu didn't like the excitement, and thought that he and the emperor were here, and the others were too reserved, so he sat patiently for a while, then got up and left, although Lian Zhenxin was not happy, but she was very considerate, let alone her mother and sister On the other side, the good sister Su Yun and others are accompanying, and the wives are like stars holding the moon, making fun of her, so the interest has not diminished at all, and they are enjoying themselves with everyone at the moment, drinking and chatting happily.

In the evening, Binglun reviewed the memorial for a while, and then took a bath to rest. After she was promoted as empress dowager, she no longer had people stay indoors to serve her bed, so a few palace maids waited for her to lie down, and lightly put the bright yellow Put down the soft tent and quietly retreat to the outer hall.

There were no lights in the bedroom, but there were several orange-red moon beads in the corner, and the surroundings were still bright and clear.Binglun was in a state of indecision, tossing and turning on the bed for a long time, Fang Menglong was a little sleepy, suddenly heard a very slight sound of footsteps, Gao Xian whispered from outside the tent: "Queen Mother, Master Chen is here."

Binglun was slightly surprised, and immediately said: "Let her in."

"Yes."

Binglun sat up, opened the soft tent with both hands, and saw Lian's real money coming in from the outside, she felt a little joy in her heart: "Why are you here at such a time?"

Lian Zhen brushed her hair from her sideburns, and sat down lazily by the bed: "I have already agreed with Manager Gao, and asked him to send a sedan chair to pick me up."

"Now you are more courageous." Binglun smiled slightly, and said again: "It's also thanks to Gao Xian, this slave, who is willing to listen to you."

"You still talk." Lian Zhenyu said coquettishly: "You ignored me, so I had to come here by myself."

Seeing her rippling starry eyes and blushing cheeks, Binglun couldn't help wrapping her arms around her slender waist: "How much have you drank?" Lian Zhen leaned on her weakly and bonyly, blowing into her ear like blue: "A little bit .”

"Well, just a little bit?" Binglun (Chengjiang Jingrulian) explained slowly with his hands through his shirt: "You know, on the surface, I can't treat you too differently, let alone your mother and sister We are here today, so many people are not enough?"

"But on a day like this, I just want to stay by your side." Lian Zhen was caught by her (Mingyue Songjian), and she uttered a barely audible sound (Qingquanshi Shangliu), and said in a trembling voice: "Binglun, I am here today." Stay here tonight, okay?"

Binglun stopped what he was doing: "That's not okay, people will find out."

Lian Zhen rubbed her head on her shoulder: "The people in the Xizichun Pavilion are almost all drunk, and they have already fallen into a deep sleep at this time. The senior manager here has also made arrangements. I will go back early tomorrow morning. People know." She begged softly, seeing that Binglun was still silent, she suddenly stood up, turned around and walked out.

Binglun shouted urgently: "Lian'er, don't go!"

Lian Zhen stopped and turned around slowly. Under the light of pearls, she was standing there with anger on her pink face, biting her cherry lips lightly. The magenta gauze on her body was as thin as the wings of a cicada. He Weiwei (who listened to the spring rain overnight in the small building) and Binglun (who sells apricot blossoms in Shenxiang Mingchao) got thirsty, got out of bed, and walked towards her step by step, with a half-smile on his face: "You tempted me, just want to Are you leaving?"

"I don't have that ability." Lianzhen lowered her head slightly, the helplessness in her voice made people feel distressed: "I also know...we have to be scruples, I just...just I wish I could stay by your side for a little longer once in a while."

"You don't need to be humble, I'm becoming more and more irresistible to you." Binglun sighed lightly, pinched her chin lightly, forcing her to face herself, the two of them pressed their foreheads together and looked at each other for a long time, Binglun said: "So, now Let me beg you, stay with me tonight, all night, okay?"
