Zhen Guo Princess GL

In the first few days after this, Zheng Bo was very silent. He originally had a few classmates and friends, and there were also a few brothers who were familiar with him in the family. We got together once, but during these times we only went back and forth between the provincial and No. [-] middle schools, and didn't go out except for going to a few banquets with me.When he was at home, he only shrunk to his place.

My mother said that she wanted to visit my house, but the first person she went to was Wu Chengsi's house. After leaving his house, she arrived at my house. Naturally, I had a grand banquet here, and the money was extra, but she only sat for half an hour. At that time, many objects were appreciated on the spot. Apart from the usual gold and silver wares and cloth, there were also ten clothes for men and women, one eagle and falcon, two hounds, two sets of seven things, and many others. Men's headdresses and belts, women's crowns and pendants.

I thought this reward was quite unusual, so I asked my mother in private, but she refused to say it clearly, she just smiled and said: "My mother has seen that you have made great progress in riding and archery, practice more, and when the weather is warmer, I will take you hunting. go."

I seem to understand and seem not to understand, but this doubt did not last long.On February [-]th, when the capital began to make the final preparations for the mother's birthday banquet, the palace suddenly issued an order saying that the queen mother did not want to hold a big banquet and waste money. On birthdays, a feast is only held at the Mingde Palace in the Shendu Garden, and the clansmen and nobles who come to pay homage are entertained. Those who are over [-] years old will be given a string of money, a piece of cloth, and a catty of meat—this is an edict notified by the imperial court, and the messenger sent by the palace brought a more specific message: In the Imperial Garden, there was a hunting competition that day, and everyone who attended the banquet had to bring their own utensils. At that time, the winner and those who hunted more would be rewarded.

This decree is not without precedent. In previous years, if the mother's birthday was not good, she would often reduce the banquet and give gifts to the people. However, the sudden order this time really aroused suspicion, but No matter how suspicious, it has come to this day, and he can only obey orders. Therefore, in the early morning of February [-]th, Zheng Bo brought many hunting falcons, lynxes, yellow dogs, and even the eagle slaves, falcon slaves, Together with the dog slave, I entered the imperial garden in a mighty way, and saw all the clansmen and nobles in the capital, from the prince, princess, princess, and son-in-law down, although they stood in different classes, they were waiting together in the same place. The children of Zhu Yang and Xun Jin's family are also waiting to see them.

I stood among the princesses for a while, and then I heard the sound of music. It was my mother and Li Dan who were promoted to the throne in the middle hall. There were fewer people participating, but it was on par with the court meeting. A court official led us in to worship. I was the last in the princess shift. When I got up after the worship, I was shocked when I saw my mother’s clothes. Dan all wore the emperor's Wubian uniform and sat in the middle of the throne. This Wubian uniform is the color of the emperor's clothes when he lectures on martial arts, goes out, hunts, and shoots. Today, he agreed to hunt bole, but why did he suddenly change? Is it a shooting ceremony?

The mother was obviously frightening people, and there was a buzz of discussion in several lines, which was stopped by the praise of the director, and then suppressed again. I sneaked around and saw several senior princes exchanging ideas with each other. After a while of eyes, Huo Wang Yuangui stood up first and said: "I dare to ask the Queen Mother."

His mother raised her hand with a smile, signaling for approval, and he said cautiously: "Wu Bian's uniform is the uniform used for military promotion and great archery. Today is a family feast, and the ministers and others are all wearing regular uniforms. I don't know why the Empress Dowager made such uniforms?"

The mother smiled and said: "You are all the sons and grandsons of the emperor, the dry city of the country, the governor of the country, the care of the people, the literary talent and the military strategy, all belong to the national system, and should not be ignored. In the past, when the emperor was in Japan, he often hunted in spring. School Er and others military. Although the mountain mausoleum collapses today, the legacy is still there. The saint is young, and I will inspect the school Er and others riding and shooting on behalf of the emperor, so I wear this uniform to show solemnity-you should do your best and not be lazy, so that the saint Disappointed with me."

Once the name of "Xiandi" was raised, Yuan Gui had no choice but to bow his head and accept it, and retreated silently. He is the son of Gaozu, respecting Sulong, even him, the clans were even more silent, and the mother saw nothing. The person remonstrates again, and with a slight smile, the courteous official issued an order and said a bunch of clichés. The righteousness is nothing more than glorifying the martial arts of the ancestors. Don't forget about military affairs. The archery ceremony was held in the hall, and the empress dowager took the lead on behalf of the emperor. Among the clansmen, the men shot and the women threw pots to show the righteousness of the country's military preparations.

The clan members looked at each other in blank dismay, afraid of their mother's majesty, they did not dare to object in person, but they were hesitant and hesitant when they answered.The mother showed a slight displeasure, raised her eyebrows and said, "King Qi thinks this is inappropriate?"

She is referring to my cousin, the heir of Qi Wang Li Ming, Li Ming is the eldest grandson of the old Qi Wang Yuanji, the son of Qi Wang Chengye, Yuan Ji made great achievements in the change of Xuanwu Gate, so after his death, his son is still named Qi Wang. My brother has always been courageous and has made many meritorious deeds. He is regarded as the leader of the clan, but his disadvantage lies in his straight temper. Therefore, although there are many closed households, the title of the title has not been fixed on the King of Qi. He was named by his mother and had to come out. , said in a stern voice: "Since it is the empress dowager's intention, there is nothing wrong with it."

The mother smiled and said, "Since there is nothing wrong, why don't you respond to the order?"

Li Ming had no choice but to lean down and said in a loud voice: "I am the heir of Qi Wang Ming, and obey the Queen Mother's order."

Mother looked at Yuan Gui again, and these people could only obey the order, so they paid homage again, and then they were guided by the ritual officer. Mother, Li Dan and us arrived at the Shetang, and stood in line one by one. A servant brought the imperial bow, and the mother stood up with a smile, stood in the middle, drew the bow and arrows, and shot three arrows in a row, and all three arrows hit the bull's-eye without moving at all.

There was a little discussion in the team again, Princess Qianjin took the lead and flattered her repeatedly, and then the princesses and princesses also took turns to go into battle, and even I praised a few words "The Empress Dowager is heavenly and powerful", among men, all martial arts , Zhu Yang, and the younger generations were the leaders, some applauded and praised, and the son-in-law of Princess Qianjin even came out specially to compose a poem on the spot, which made the mother smile all over her face, handed over the bow, and ordered the men to shoot in turn .

Huo Wang is a few old people, he is not really willing to do such a tiring job, but his mother has already opened his mouth, so he has no choice but to draw the bow, some of them hit one arrow, some hit two arrows, but no one hit all three arrows .Among the juniors, there were quite a few who hit all three arrows, and each of them was given a Wenjin robe.

After the men finished shooting, it was the woman's turn to throw the pot. I never expected to meet such a test here. I was really afraid of being ashamed. While I was thinking about the countermeasures, I suddenly felt a person sticking behind me, whispering in my ear: "Two Squeeze the arrow with your fingers, don't look at the mouth of the pot, just look at the top of the back, exert strength with your wrist, even if you can't hit them all, it won't be embarrassing." Looking back, I saw A Huan squeezed into my side at some point, holding my hand I squeezed, ordered, and quietly retreated to the back—I don’t know if my mother did it on purpose. The only seat in this hall is her and Li Dan’s throne. We can only stand on both sides and watch. It’s not like the Archery Hall, it’s crowded with so many people, the place is a bit cramped, and everyone wants to stand in front, so it’s a bit out of order. At the corner, A Huan squeezed in and out, without making a fuss.

I got A Huan's instructions, so I calmed down a bit, and I recalled the action when I threw the pot last time, and made two silent gestures with my hand. I went to look for A Huan, but saw her talking with the Princess of Qi, when I cast my gaze over her, she raised her head slightly, her eyes still looking at Princess Qi, as if she was listening attentively, but slightly raised her elbow, Spread the index finger and middle finger, and quietly made a "V" to me.

That's the move I taught her.

The author has something to say: Zetian OS: I see who of you would dare to make me feel uncomfortable on my birthday, a bunch of scum, huh.
