Emperor's Trophy

The sound of the suona is particularly loud, and folk performances are usually played on weddings, weddings or wild operas.

Yun Zhen picked up that golden and extremely vulgar suona and played it. It was originally a very elegant and elegant entertainment, but it seemed to have turned into that noisy stage in an instant. The style of painting was so funny that everyone couldn't help but cover their mouths Low smile.

But seeing that Yunzhen didn't sit down, he just stood by the window, picked up the suona, pressed his finger on it, and blew casually.

A long and desolate music sounded, distant and sad, like a trumpet on the sidelines, a flock of crows flitted through the twilight, and the long smoke fell into the mountains,

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

Ji Huaisu raised his eyes, his heart trembled, and he realized that this was the bugle.

The palm number in the army is mostly used suona, because it is loud enough and far enough away, it is very convenient to command the three armies.

Yun Zhen lowered his eyelashes, as if just blowing them casually.

The music was long and echoed in the not-so-big lecture hall, but everyone could hear the sadness, distance and vicissitudes.

The song is very short, and within half a cup of tea time, Yun Zhen finished playing. It was really like a folk tune, but it was so heavy and desolate that it seemed to be burdened with too much content. He handed over the suona to the little servant.Ji Bingyuan has been silent and did not speak.

Ji Huaisheng, who was seated in the seat, suddenly slapped the table and said: "It's really good! It's the best suona I've ever heard!"

The audience was very quiet at first, but after being teased by him, the tittering sounded again.

Yun Zhen didn't feel any embarrassment, so he raised his eyes and smiled and said to Ji Bingyuan, "It's a little tune I learned from a veteran. Your Majesty has shown my clumsiness in front of you."

Ji Bingyuan glanced at him, his gaze was heavy: "The name of the song?"

Yun Zhen said: "The white horse returns."

The general died in a hundred battles, and the white horse returned to his hometown.

This is a funeral song. After the war, countless soldiers could not go back. They could only wrap their corpses in the sand and bury them on the spot. The veterans sent away too many former brothers, so they could only play a funeral song on the battlefield after the sunset to send off their comrades. His soul returned to his hometown thousands of miles away.

But few of the sons who sit in the jade hall and eat golden food in the seat really understand the meaning of war. They only know that their fathers have made countless achievements.

Ji Bingyuan, who led the army at the age of 12, naturally knew that this was a funeral song. He glanced at Yunzhen and tapped his fingers a few times: "Young people should listen to more lively and lively songs. Don't learn from these lifeless songs, which will change your temperament." .”

Yun Zhen glanced at Ji Bingyuan, he hadn't come out of the song for a while, thinking of the Mingjun who everyone respected and loved in front of him, but the imperial conquest had never returned, he couldn't help showing regret on his face, and quickly bowed his head to salute: "Follow His Majesty's order."

But Ji Bingyuan was so depressed by his gaze, how could a young man have such mournful eyes!Sure enough, he shouldn't be allowed to keep his filial piety in the mansion alone!What happened to Shou Xiao in those years?How can you play this ominous song at such a young age?

He shouldn't be allowed to mix with those veterans of the Zhongyi Academy. He is a good young man. What have he learned? A few, no wonder Yun Zhenxin is not in this school, he only thinks about playing truant all day long.

Ji Bingyuan thought about it in his heart, but his face was still calm. He ordered a few more students, and after listening to them, he gave a few words of encouragement. Seeing that the ministers in the cabinet were all present, he got up and went back to discuss the matter.

But thinking about this matter in his heart, Tete left Yunzhen in the palace for dinner.

Yun Zhen was still thinking about what he was punished before, and when he heard that the emperor kept him, the grievance on his face almost made Ding Dai laugh out loud, so he quickly comforted him and said, "Don't worry, Lord Hou, it's not about punishing you, it's about punishing you today." There are newly imported summer lotus roots in the Ergong, and anchovy saury imported from Taihu Lake, which are extremely delicious and cannot be tasted outside."

Only then did Yun Zhen feel relieved, and played with the kitten in the palace. After Ji Bingyuan discussed with the minister, he saw Yun Zhen teasing the kitten in the yard boredly. How did a grown-up boy play such a tune?What happened in those years of mourning?

He walked over to order people to set meals, and asked Yun Zhen: "What do you do to pass the time in the mansion on weekdays?"

Yun Zhen's eyes were alert: "Practice arrows and study!" Don't make excuses to punish me again.

Ji Bingyuan looked at him like a frightened little animal, and couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth: "I mean, you should combine work and rest as a young man. What do you do for entertainment on weekdays? Shouxiao has been in the mansion for the past few years. It's hard to think about it." Boring, is there something else you want to play? How about asking Gao Xin to take you to some fun places in Beijing?"

Gao Xin!Playing a fart with him!Yun Zhen opened his eyes wide and quickly refused: "No need for him! I've had enough fun! I don't know where to play in Beijing? I've played all the time with Zhu Jiang!"

Ji Bingyuan asked: "Zhu Jiang?"

Ding Dai said: "Grand Ding's grandson, born of the second son, fell off a horse and recuperated at home a few days ago, and now he has not entered school."

Ji Bingyuan thought about it for a while and remembered: "A few days ago, you deliberately held a flower viewing feast on the day when the Xunyang County King was appointed, to vent your anger on him?"

Although Yun Zhen didn't expect to hide Ji Bingyuan's knowledge, he couldn't help but blush when he directly said that little thought: "Yes."

Ji Bingyuan thought for a while and said: "I see that the sky is getting hotter, how about I take you to Xishan to escape the summer heat, so that you can relax too?"

Yun Zhen is actually a little bit depressed, how can he have time to play!Time is running out!He has already played Xishan!But thinking that the emperor was tired, it would be good to go to Xishan to relax, so he cheered up and agreed: "That's great, thank you Your Majesty Long En! The hunting at Xishan is good."

Ji Bingyuan's sharp eyes swept over his face, and said again: "By the way, I remember that you liked to collect beautiful gems when you were young? In recent years, Curry has come in a lot, let Ding Dai take you to see it later, Pick something you like."

Yun Zhen said: "That's all a childhood hobby, the emperor should keep it for rewarding people." His heart suddenly moved, but he remembered something. The gems in the palace are different from other royal objects. They don't have the royal seal, so they can be used To exchange money.

Ji Bingyuan wrote lightly: "It's okay, it's all tribute from the Western Regions. There are no concubines in the palace, so it's a waste to leave it alone. If you lack money, you can exchange it for some money."

Yun Zhen's eyes lit up when he heard it: "Can you really sell it?"

Ji Bingyuan said leisurely: "It seems that you are short of money? What do you want to buy?"

When Yun Zhen thought that he could sell money freely, he was elated: "I'm spending money, raising horses, retainers, raising troops..."

Ji Bingyuan thought of those military slave children he had taken in: "What are you raising those servants for?"

Yun Zhen said: "There is no peace in the north, and the reform of the military system will not be effective for a while. At that time, His Majesty will have no one to order. I will raise some for Your Majesty, and I will be able to help at that time." Calculate the age He was barely able to make a change, thinking of this, he became more and more anxious, feeling that the time was too short.

Ji Bingyuan said: "How do you know that the north is not peaceful?"

Yun Zhen opened his mouth, thinking of putting the blame on Zhang Yan: "Mr. Zhang said once that His Majesty wants to change the military system. It should be because he expected that there will be a war in the north in recent years. It seems that the brothers over there are at odds or something. .”

He pretended to be interested in the sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root, and stuffed a few slices, vaguely thinking about how to get this matter out of the way.

Seeing how hard it was for him to change the subject, Ji Bingyuan didn't ask any more questions, and only signaled the eunuch in charge of food to wait for Yunzhen to pour the soup: "Slow down, have some soup."

But Yun Zhen remembered something again: "Your Majesty, I heard old nonsense that there used to be doctors at Jiuzhenmen who accompanied the army to support the Northern Expedition?"

Ji Bingyuan paused slightly with his chopsticks: "Yes."

Yun Zhen said: "I also heard that their medical skills are superb, Your Majesty, can we send some medical boys to Jiuzhenmen to study medicine?"

Ji Bingyuan shook his head: "No, they have very high requirements for accepting apprentices."

Yun Zhen said with a sad face: "Old Hu said the same thing. I don't think it's okay. If a war really starts, it will need a lot of military doctors. You just need to learn how to heal wounds. There is no need for such a high threshold. They are so selective." Yes, how many years does it take to train a doctor."

Ji Bingyuan said: "Human life is at stake. Quack doctors mislead people. Of course, you can't be a teacher casually."

No talking while eating, no talking when sleeping, Ji Bingyuan stopped talking and ate in silence.

Yun Zhen only felt that he had succeeded in changing the subject, heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly ate his meal, but he was still planning various things in his heart.

Ji Bingyuan saw that his eyes were bright and his appearance was very different from the one just now playing the funeral song, and he became more and more puzzled. The habit he developed in the army has always been to eat food very quickly. Zhen: "Young people should be down-to-earth and accumulate more knowledge. There are ministers of civil and military affairs in the Manchu Dynasty for state affairs. One hundred thousand frontier troops guard the frontier. How can you come here every day to worry about the sky? When you serve the king, you are now Just study hard."

Yun Zhen took a sip of the fish soup, squinted his eyes, and was very satisfied. He put down the fish soup and wiped his mouth dry, muttering: "The civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty all have the talents of managing the world, the ability to manage the country, and the ability to benefit the time. He is loyal to the country and the people, if something happens, he will take care of himself, and no one will help the emperor to share your worries." Including myself, I have not been of much help in the two lives.

Ji Bingyuan put the hot cloth towel for wiping hands back into the plate in the waiter's hand. Hearing his muttering, he couldn't help but glance at him again. Ding Dai beside him was amused and laughed: "Master Hou is loyal to the king, but Lord Hou, our Majesty will conquer the world immediately, he is wise and powerful, and his martial arts are world-class, so don't worry about Master Hou."

Yun Zhen only looked at the emperor: "Of course, but I want to share my worries for the emperor. Didn't your majesty say that he would give me experience and experience a few days ago? When do you think it will be arranged?" He didn't care about anything else, Asking for errands directly, he is fed up with hanging around in the study with those fools every day, he wants power, he wants to do errands, he doesn't want to write big characters every day.

The people all over the world are waiting for the protection of the emperor, civil servants and military officials also point to the emperor's command, he is the Mingjun who will be laid down immediately, and he still has the wounds of the Beiding Central Plains on his body until now, and he did not come back in the end.

When he thought of this, his heart ached. What happened on the battlefield?

In the first life, he was completely a muddled demon king. In the second life, he assisted Ji Huaisu, but it only helped him to the position of the crown prince. The emperor went out again, and all the military power was in the hands of the emperor, which meant that the responsibility of the world rested with him. On the emperor's shoulder alone, he did beat the Beiqi people to pieces, and retreated again and again, but why didn't he come back in the end?

He looked at Ji Bingyuan with eager eyes.

Ji Bingyuan looked at Yun Zhen who was obviously childish, but didn't know where he was born with such a heavy worry, he was a little worried, but also a little helpless: "Okay, okay, I don't think you have much interest in studying here, Let’s go to Gao Xin’s Longxiang camp first to be a general, and by the way, I’ll give you the title of imperial bodyguard—let’s talk about it first, the salary will not be paid, and you still have to go to the study in the morning and come to work in the afternoon , I explained to Gao Xin that you don't have to take turns."

Yun Zhen smiled openly: "Thank you, Lord Long."

Ji Bingyuan's head hurt a little, and she waved her hand: "When the time comes, don't come to me crying and changing errands, I'm not used to you."

Ding Dai came over with a box of precious stones, and joked with a smile: "In my humble opinion, Lord Hou may not find it bitter, His Majesty must be distressed first." After finishing speaking, he put the box on the table that had just been removed from the meal: "The Palace The door is about to be locked, please hurry up and pick some favorites to take away, Lord Hou?"

Yun Zhen leaned over with a hippie smile and picked up a few big blue gemstones: "It's so beautiful, did they come from the Western Regions as a tribute? Your Majesty, I think the gemstones on the sword you wear are old, so replace them with new ones." ? I'll ask Neizaofu to make you another gemstone belt, this golden cat's eye is good, it's just right for a belt."

Ji Bingyuan waved his hand and sneered at his taste: "No, it hurts to think about it." He glanced at the sky: "Don't pick it, seal it up and ask someone to send him out, or stay in the palace tonight Night?"

Yun Zhen immediately jumped up as if his butt was burned: "Ah, I haven't looked at my little pomegranate for several days, I have to go back and have a look!"

Ji Bingyuan had a half smile but not a smile: "How did I hear that little pomegranate was given to the kid from the Duke's family?"

Yun Zhen giggled: "It's still kept at my place."

Ji Bingyuan was thoughtful: "You two have a good relationship, and I will also test his knowledge someday."

Yun Zhen gloated and sniggered, but still kindly spoke up for Zhu Jiang: "Hey! He's just a dandy, Your Majesty, don't make things difficult for him!"

Ji Bingyuan said: "Speaking of horses, the former Imperial Horse Supervisor said that a snow-white pony has just been born, it is extremely rare, it is just a reward for you, you can send someone to take it back later."

Yun Zhen was overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Your Majesty! You are the best! Old Yutou must be dying of joy!"

Seeing his happy face, Ji Bingyuan was also relieved in his heart, this is the youthful vigor.I used to be naughty when I was a child!He discussed matters with Princess Dingxiang, he climbed up and down alone to play gems and marbles, climbed trees and fished, and the imperial garden was completely destroyed by him.

It seems that after Yun Shenwei died of illness, Princess Dingxiang did not enter the palace very much, and then the eldest princess also had a relapse of old injuries, and her illness was difficult to return. Good to enter the palace.He only visited the Hou Mansion a few times when the eldest princess was seriously ill and after she passed away, but they were all hasty visits, and there were many birth points.

Ji Bingyuan, who felt more guilty, thought that he should make up for it more, pamper him well, and let this child be as carefree as before.
