Remembrance Hibiscus GL

The heavy bamboo curtains hang down, and the smell of fresh flowers is revealed, and the corridor is full of fresh and sweet aroma.Gao Xian lowered his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes, and stood guard outside the hall alone, the surroundings were extremely quiet.

There are ice basins at the four corners of the warm pavilion, which are cool and pleasant. The ice wheel holds an exquisite and small ivory-handled feather fan.

Tan Ying was very close to the imperial case, and said in a low voice: "There is news from outside that the general is already collecting evidence against Commander Chai."

"Hmm." Binglun raised his eyes, not surprised: "Chai Biao is upright and doesn't know how to hide it. Over the years, he has been suspicious of him, worried that he will usurp power and mess up the government. Recently, he openly opposed his appointment as king, and he has long been regarded as a thorn in his side. .”

Putting down the fan in his hand, he said calmly: "More importantly, he is the commander of the outer guards, so naturally we should attack him first."

Tan Ying said: "Commander Chai is loyal and upright, it is not easy to find him."

"If he wants to find it, there are many ways."

Tan Ying hesitated and said, "Should I inform Commander Chai so that he can prepare early?"

"No need."

Tan Ying showed a puzzled expression. The commander of the outer guards is in charge of important positions such as guards, access control, inspections, and night patrols inside and outside the capital. They are really important positions, and they cannot be held by non-confidant officials. If this position falls into Huo Mu's hands, it will be equal to The entire capital was handed over to him.

Binglun said: "Let him go, just try to save Chai Biao's life when the time comes."

Tan Ying said: "Queen Dowager, I... I don't understand."

"Do you think that in this way, the emperor and I are completely under his control?" Binglun said calmly, "But haven't we already been under his control?"

Around the capital, Huo Mu has deployed heavy troops, and the eight guard battalions stationed outside the city are controlled by Kuang Chong and Huo Ling respectively. Tan Ying knew the stakes in it better than anyone else, he pursed his lips tightly and fell silent for a moment.

Binglun glanced at him, and said slowly: "The only way to survive is to make a dangerous move in chess."

Tan Ying chewed her words carefully, trying to figure out the deep meaning, and after a while, said: "My humble minister is dull, thank you Empress Dowager for waking up."

After Tanying went out, Gao Xian opened the curtain and tiptoed into the room, Binglun leaned on the back of the chair, his eyes were slightly closed, and his habitual thumb lightly rubbed his temples.

Gao Xian saluted, bowed and said: "Queen Dowager, someone from Xiefang Palace has just been sent, saying that Master Chen is a bit unhappy."

"Hmm." Binglun opened his eyes and asked, "What's the matter? Did the imperial doctor go to see it? What should I say?"

"The imperial doctor hasn't been there yet, so they didn't say what's wrong."

Binglun's face darkened slightly: "You are getting more and more confused now!"

"Slave deserves to die." Gao Xian didn't dare to argue, he just said: "Slave, send someone to inquire carefully."

"Wait." Bing Lun called him, thought for a while, and said, "I haven't seen her for quite a while, so I'd better go there myself."

There were colorful bead threads and gold threads on the kang table, Lianzhen was concentrating on weaving, her slender fingers were nimble and light, and they were weaving non-stop.

Binglun stood there, a little dazed: "Didn't you say you were sick?"

Lian Zhen raised her head, her starry eyes were shining brightly: "You are here." Putting down the things in her hands, she got down from the kang, Bing Lun saw that her complexion was radiant and radiant, she didn't look like there was anything wrong, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then Pretending to be serious: "When did you learn to lie?"

"If you don't say that, will you come?"

"Don't mess around like this in the future." Binglun finally couldn't help it, and a smile appeared in his eyes: "I'm not afraid of getting my own bad luck."

Lian Zhen said: "I'll go and pour you tea."

"No need, I'm not thirsty." Binglun stretched out his hand to hold her, but he was reluctant to let go, sat down with her, and glanced at Kang Ji: "Why are you doing the netting yourself again?"

Lian Zhen leaned against her, her heart was peaceful and at ease, and she smiled and said: "Didn't you present a batch of jewelry and jade objects, one of which is a yellow dragon pattern jade pendant, which is very rare. I fell in love with it immediately, and wanted to make a phone call I will wear it for you on the Zinet."

As soon as she said that, Binglun suddenly remembered: "It was brought back by my father from the Western Regions and dedicated to me. It is indeed a rare thing." The words changed: "But there are many treasures in the palace, why bother with this, or you Pick another one."

Lian Zhen was startled: "Since you think it's good, why do you choose something else?"

A pensive look appeared in Binglun's eyes, and she suddenly smiled: "Well, that's it." Turning around, facing her directly, he reached out and raised her chin: "Come on, let me take a good look at you."

Lianzhen tilted her head slightly: "I'm tired of seeing anything interesting." As she spoke, her eye circles turned red.

"You know, I can't help myself." Binglun hand paused in mid-air, and said softly: "Although I can't come here, but my heart is always with you." Fiddled with the hair on her sideburns, only Feeling the faint fragrance of orchid, permeating into the lungs, I couldn't help but kissed the base of the white ear.

Lian Zhen's body softened, she struggled a little, and then stopped doing anything, but wrapped her arms around her neck naturally.

After embracing each other for a long time, Lian Zhen whispered: "Isn't it normal for the concubine to see the queen mother?"

Binglun couldn't help smiling: "It's not as simple as meeting us."

Lian really gave her a white look: "I can do this."

Binglun shook his head lightly: "You are with me, even if you get along and talk normally, the way you look at me and your expression are all different."

"Binglun." Lian Zhen stared at her and touched her face with her hand: "Why are you so afraid?"

"Afraid?" Binglun was taken aback, and forced a smile, "What are you afraid of?"

"You are afraid of your father, that's why you are so cautious. Before he came back, you were not like this."

Binglun said: "The situation was different back then, I could control the overall situation, now..." Sighing, he said: "My every move may be watched by others. In this extraordinary period, it is hard to guarantee that someday Some people were bought or coerced into betraying me."

"Sell what? Do you mean to sell other secrets, or your relationship with me?" Lian Zhen said softly, but pressed her every step of the way: "What will happen if your father finds out about our relationship someday?"

Binglun's face froze instantly, and she looked at her blankly, as if there was a deep and bone-chilling chill that was slowly penetrating into the blood vessels and bone marrow, and even her voice became cold: "Don't worry, he will never know."

At the beginning of the day, Zong Xu went down to return to the Nuan Pavilion, and when he saw Si Yi's servant following up, he waved impatiently: "Go out, don't always be surrounded by a group of people."

Wei Lun said distressedly: "It's so hot today, I'm sweating after only walking for a while." While picking up the chilled towel, he stepped forward to wipe his hands and face carefully, quietly Make winks to make people on the left and right back down.

Zong Xu felt refreshed, and opened his hands again, allowing him to put on the ochre-yellow four-ball golden dragon gauze uniform for himself, sat down on the chair unhappily, picked up a piece of watermelon, took two bites, and threw it again. Back to plate.

"Did something happen in the courtroom today?" Wei Lun laughed along with him, and asked tentatively, "Who is so bold as to offend the emperor?"

"Hmph, who else can there be?"

Wei Lun's heart was clear: "Could it be the King of Wu..."

As soon as these two words were mentioned, Zong Xu became angry: "What king of Wu? He is not qualified to be king at all!"

"Hush!" Wei Lun was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a "plop", looked around, and hugged his feet tightly: "My long live Lord, please be gentle, these words can be yelled loudly. Is it?", paused for a moment, then lowered his voice a little bit: "If these words are to be spread, the servant will be hacked to pieces, that's all, anyway, it's a cheap life, but..."

After he spoke half a sentence, he suddenly swallowed his words, Zong Xu didn't pay attention, and said angrily: "You didn't see how aggressive he was in the court, he confronted the chief assistant and Commander Chai everywhere, and today he openly insulted other ministers !"

"What about the Queen Mother? Did the Queen Mother say anything?"

Zong Xu bit his lip fiercely, and said after a while: "The queen mother turned a blind eye to it. After all, it is her father, so she can't say anything."

"This servant has the guts to say something that shouldn't be said. If the late emperor was still alive, such a thing would never have happened." Wei Lun glanced at his expression, and said, "King Wu is clearly deceiving the emperor when he is young. .”

The last time Zong Xu greeted Huo Mu, he was afraid. Now that he goes to court every day, it is inevitable that he will meet him every day.Huo Mu is different from other ministers. He is so respectful in front of the emperor and the queen mother. He always stands with his head held high. , looking down at the officials, but every time he met Huo Mu's sharp eyes, he felt nervous, and often felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles.Wei Lun's words really touched his heart. . . . . .

If the father is still there, if the father is still there. . . . . .Zong Xu repeated this sentence over and over in his heart. He lost his biological mother not long after he was born, and has been raised by Concubine Zhaohui ever since. He rarely saw Emperor Wenzong until he was adopted by Binglun, only then did he occasionally get close to his father However, his memory is still vague. After remembering, he pestered Chai Biao, Xia Houjin and others, asking them to tell him the story of the late emperor. Chai Biao and others knew that Wen Zong was cruel, cruel and arbitrary, so how dare they tell him? the truth?He only perfunctorily talked about the resolute and decisive words of the late emperor, and the awe of all the officials. Zong Xu even imagined his father as a wise and majestic monarch, a hero who stands up to heaven and earth.

If it was the royal father, Huo Mu would never dare to be so rude in front of him, Zong Xu thought in his heart, gritted his teeth lightly, and his face became more and more ugly: "After all, he has made great contributions to the court, and I also want to see the mother's face."

"The position of the general was not used often during Sejong's time. He was only temporarily granted the title during the war, and he was dismissed after the war. But now, he still occupies the position of the general. It is my ancestor's instruction not to make the opposite sex king. He However, he has already been proclaimed as a prince. Based on these two points alone, the emperor's grace is immense and he is extremely favored. The king of Wu should not rely on merit and respect himself, and have no courtesies."

"You're right." Zong Xu closed his eyes and said slowly: "My mother cared about family affection and violated the ancestral precepts again and again. Some ministers in the court tried to persuade me several times, and the first assistant even cried bitterly because of this. , but she didn't move at all, which really disappointed me."

Wei Lun looked up at him: "These words should never be said by the slave. The slave knows he deserves to die, but he can't help but not say it."

Zong Xu put his hand on his shoulder: "I know, I won't blame you."

Wei Lun suddenly burst into tears: "The servant is worried about the emperor."

"What are you worried about?" Zong Xu sighed softly, and comforted him: "Now the government is in the hands of the empress mother, and only my relatives can monopolize the power. After a few years, I will be in charge, and everything will be fine."

"A few years is still a long time. The emperor must be careful, be patient in everything, and think twice."

"Are you afraid that I will offend him one day, and will he depose me?" Zong Xu was intelligent by nature, and he was educated by Binglun when he was young, and received more rigorous education after he ascended the throne. He was familiar with classics and history at the age of six or seven. According to Yan Ri, a bachelor taught the emperor's art, and his mind is much more mature than his peers. He sneered slightly and said proudly: "I am the only son of the late emperor, can he abolish him at will?"

Wei Lun twitched a few words on the tip of his tongue, and finally said: "The emperor always likes to read history books, isn't he afraid that King Wu will follow the example of Cao Cao and Wang Mang?"

"He dares!" Zong Xu's eyes widened: "If he wants to seek power and usurp the throne, he will be punished. Are the cabinet and those civil servants and generals just a display? They are the subjects of Dayan, and they are only loyal to their father. The emperor and I!"

"Your Majesty, he is a great general, but he has a lot of troops, and they are all within walking distance of the capital."

"Don't worry, there is a guard battalion outside." Speaking of this, suddenly thinking of Huo Ling, he lost his confidence, and continued: "There is also the Imperial Forest Army in the inner city."

He is still a child after all, so he doesn't think too deeply, but Wei Lun is anxious: "Director Tan, Commander Chai and General Xiahou all only obey the Queen Mother's orders."

Zong Xu stared at him blankly: "If he wants to usurp the throne, will the empress mother help him instead of me?"

"The slave doesn't know either. Didn't the Emperor just say that the Empress Dowager has repeatedly violated the ancestral precepts?" Wei Lun lowered his eyelids and added: "After all, King Wu is the Empress Dowager's biological father."

"I'm not her biological son." These words suddenly came out of Zong Xu's heart, as if a thin invisible needle had gently pricked his heart.Zong Xu bit his lip, as if he was afraid that he would say those words, but after all, he became worried, and after a while, he said: "According to what you said, if Huo Mu really has this intention, then wouldn't I be at the mercy of others? "

Wei Lun looked gloomy, hugged his legs even tighter, and leaned forward, his voice was so low that it was almost inaudible: "If the Queen Mother is gone, Director Tan and Commander Chai will only listen to the emperor alone. gone."

"The Queen Mother is gone?" Zong Xu frowned, and suddenly understood, he couldn't help being furious, and stood up suddenly: "You bastard!"
