Zhen Guo Princess GL

The weather in October, just after Shenshi, the sky is already slightly dark.The palace gradually lit up the lamps.Wan'er glanced at the gloomy sky, dropped her pen, got up slowly, walked outside the palace gate, and saw guards of guards coming in one after another, replacing the big man who was originally standing in the corridor.

After Dugu Shao was dismissed from office, Mulan Qi returned to the subordinates of the palace, together with the female soldiers led by Hulu Duobao, called Nei Zhan, because most of the cavalry guards have no foundation and are rough As a woman, Wei Tuan'er thought it unbearable to be a close relative of the Empress Dowager, and she was not allowed to serve the imperial court at all.Those who go to Zhenguan Hall to be on duty every day, only those vulgar and vulgar men are left. The army began to fight internally. At that time, it was fashionable to only wait outside the Zhenguan Hall for guards, and when it came to Chidao, it was flanked by retinues. This year, because of the incident between King Qi and Xu Jingye, the Empress Dowager ordered the expansion of the Yulin Army into the Yubayashi Guard, with a capacity of [-]. They stay outside the palace day and night and cannot leave for even a moment. Among the Yubayashi army, there are quite a few young men from the middle of the capital called Liangjiazi.

Wan'er didn't have any liking or dislike for these young people, no matter how bold they were outside, they would not dare to touch a finger of the palace servants in the palace—even the laundry slaves—but among the people who were in charge recently, there was one who really It was too eye-catching, so that she saw it from a distance, so she unconsciously felt disgusted, and even felt disgusted with the guard's Habayashi Wei.

But today, the person she hated was wearing armor, carrying a sword, bow and arrow, and entered the Hall of Zhenguan with a smile in the crowd, and sat in the left corridor as the chief.

Wan'er felt a burst of irritability for no reason, and this irritability lingered in her heart, and she couldn't get rid of it. When she entered the main hall again, she had to lower her head, lest people would find out.

Empress Wu has called people to discuss matters since noon, and it has not finished yet. Wan'er stood at the gate of the inner hall for a long time, only to see Cui Qiao, Liu Yizhi, Wu Chengsi, and Fang Yi come out one by one, and later there were palace officials When he came out, he smiled when he saw her: "The Empress Dowager summoned a talented person, and I said that the talented person must have been waiting outside the door, as expected."

Wan'er smiled lightly and nodded to her. When she entered, Empress Wu had already stood up, standing by the window and looking out.Wan'er walked over to salute her, and said softly: "It's cold and windy by the window, I'm afraid it's not suitable to stand for a long time."

Empress Wu smiled without turning her head: "But you coughed twice during the night, you should remember it."

These words were unintentional, but Wan'er somehow felt a little guilty, she bowed her head and said: "The Empress Dowager is all about the country, and everyone's expectations depend on her. Since the concubine serves her left and right, naturally she dare not take it lightly."

Empress Wu smiled and shook her head, turned around, walked a few steps, and suddenly said narrowly: "So you care so much about my safety because of Sheji, not because of your loyalty to me?"

Recently, she likes to say these funny words more and more, but Wan'er is not as afraid of her as before. She still bowed low and said softly: "Loyalty to the queen mother is loyalty to the country, and loyalty to the country is also a kind of loyalty to the country." The loyalty of the Empress Dowager is no different from that of Sheji."

Empress Wu smiled lightly, and went out from the main entrance, instead of walking backwards, she walked slowly along the courtyard for a few steps. The chiefs of the Yubayashi stomped there, seeing the Empress Dowager coming out, they stood up straight and pressed their hands Standing with swords, they are all brave warriors selected from thousands of people. They are all over eight feet tall, with big arms and round waists, standing like a mountain. Empress Wu seems to be in a good mood. A few gossips, suddenly seemed to think of something, looked at the person in the middle and said: "Have you ever entered the palace for an audience?"

The man knelt down and bowed, and said loudly: "The minister is Jingzhao Feng Xiaobao. He was summoned by grace at the beginning of the year, and later entered the Habayashi Guard. Now he is the head of the Habayashi."

Wan'er's heart tightened, she lowered her head, and listened to Empress Wu with a smile: "I remember, I asked you to go hunting in the garden with Wu Yizong—how, did you catch anything that day?"

Feng Xiaobao kowtowed his head loudly: "Going back to the Empress Dowager, I hunted a wild pig and two deer that day, the military general Xichen was brave, so the general was elected to the Habayashi Guard."

Seeing Empress Wu, Wan'er seemed to have a long conversation, she pursed her lips, coughed lightly, and said, "The Empress Dowager hasn't eaten yet? Do you want them to pass on the meal?"

Empress Wu glanced at her with a smile, nodded, and said: "Decree, the three guards, the left and right habayashi, the hundred cavalry, and the flying cavalry who will be appointed this month, December and the first month will each be given five dans."

She has her own internal servant secretary and general biography, and even after a while, she heard Yulin and Sanwei Suwei knelt down and worshiped the mountain inside and outside the former. In the inner hall, it was time to leave the duty with the cloth on the dinner. A female officer had long been waiting outside the door, waiting for Wan'er to come out. Empress Wu caught a glimpse, put down the chopsticks in her hand, and asked leisurely: "Aren't you on duty today? "

Wan'er's heart skipped a beat for no reason, she glanced outside the door, and said in a low voice: "The Queen Mother, concubine... I want to exchange value with someone."

Empress Wu glanced at her in surprise, and said with a smile, "Exchange value?"

Wan'er pursed her lips, leaned over and said, "Concubine... the period of desperation is approaching, and I'm afraid I won't be able to serve you well, so I want to exchange a day with Mrs. Li. Today, my concubine will be on duty at night. The next day, Mrs. Li will serve the Queen Mother, begging for the Queen Mother's favor." allow."

Empress Wu smiled: "Yes, but I have to ask Li Mi." He beckoned the person at the door to come in: "Wan'er wants to exchange value with you, are you willing?"

Since the Empress Dowager asked each other, Li Mi naturally did not respond. Wan'er watched her retreat from the door, and concentrated on kneeling and sitting beside her. After the Empress Dowager had eaten, she went inside with her, changed her clothes, washed and cleaned her.Empress Wu refused to be idle before going to bed, and took a few letters to read. Seeing that Feng Qi was no longer there, Wan'er knew that it was the form she had read. Looking at the color of Empress Wu, it seems that she is more happy. Recently, the most worrying thing in the court is the two rebellions. What can make Empress Wu so happy is probably a victory - but I don't know where?

Empress Wu seemed to have read through her thoughts. After reading one, she put the letters on the case and asked her with a smile, "Are you familiar with Dugu Shao?"

Wan'er was taken aback for a moment, she had some confidence in her mind, and slowly said: "I don't have much contact with foreign ministers, the only people I know well in the palace are Cui Mingde and Ni Shijing."

Empress Wu smiled and said: "She fought a good battle..." She seemed to want to say something, but she held back, smiled and said to Wan'er and the palace people around her: "I don't know the details, wait a little longer Then, you can go ask her yourself." Throwing away the booklet, you stood up leisurely, and asked, "What time is it?"

Wan'er said: "It's the end of Hai." It was past the usual bedtime, but Empress Wu didn't fall asleep for a long time, and when she was undressing, she turned her head and said casually: "Habayashi, when is the shift?"

Wan'er unfastened her clothes and said in a low voice: "I don't know." After a pause, she said: "I asked someone to ask?"

Empress Wu shook her head: "Forget it." Sitting on the edge of the bed, she seemed to think of something, and said with a smile: "A while ago, I told Sizi that women were inferior in military affairs. , it can be seen that there is no absolute thing in the world, and what a man can do, a woman is not bad."

There was a bit of self-respect on her face, obviously she was not talking about Dugu Shao alone, Wan'er knew what she was thinking, and said with a smile: "Not only is it not bad, like the Queen Mother, she is far superior to men in the world. "Empress Wu didn't ask her to serve her, but she had the courage to take off Empress Wu's little clothes and said, "A concubine serves the empress dowager just like serving the emperor."

Empress Wu looked at her in surprise, Wan'er felt uneasy, knelt down on the ground, put her hands on Empress Wu's small clothes, and buried her head deeply: "Men always say that women are inferior in one way or another, but now Dugu Shao, Cui Mingde, He Loushanggong, Li Shangfu, Qing Niangzi, Wei Tuan'er... How are these people worse than those men? It can be seen that women are not inferior, but because they are suppressed by men, they can't get ahead. Although the concubine is not talented, the Empress Dowager will not abandon her, and she will be promoted among her slaves and maidservants. She is willing to serve the Empress Dowager like a minister serving a king, like a son serving a father, like... a concubine serving her husband."

She clearly felt the sweat in her palms.Today is really reckless, not in line with her usual forbearance, but she really said this, but she does not regret it - she has been with Empress Wu for a long time, and she has seen housewives one after another, relying on Empress Wu to use what she has learned, as She is as decisive as a man, participates in politics, and glorifies her family. If she is not moved, it must be a lie.What she suspected before was the enmity between her grandfather and father, and the empress Wu's suspicion of her.However, now that she has seen more and more, she knows that the death of her grandfather and father was not a personal enmity, but because she happened to be a scapegoat for the late emperor, and this enmity cannot be avenged anyway—unless the surname Li is no longer in this world. , and Empress Wu has increasingly trusted her, Wan'er has already made a faint decision in her heart, and now she has said it, which is not only in line with her original intention, but also beneficial to her future, the only shortcoming is that her words are probably a little careless, It was such an ambiguous moment again, but once Wan'er thought of Feng Xiaobao serving on the gallery, she felt that such a risk was worth it.

For some reason, she was sure that Empress Wu would not blame her for this matter.

She guessed right.

Empress Wu not only did not blame her, but stretched out her hand to pinch her face and said: "Since this is the case, you should stop dressing as an inner court woman, just like foreign ministers, and wear a man's crown, and don't hide in the sidelines during court meetings in the future." Come on, stand on the side of the inner offering, and salute in line as a man." Before Wan'er could react, she suddenly added another sentence: "Of course, during the day, you should serve the emperor like a minister, but at night, you might as well serve as a concubine. Master."
