Empress Abandoned in the Cold Palace: Queen Juan, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 138 Barracks
The next day.

Su Lijin got dressed and went straight to the imperial study.

Xiao Shengyun picked up a pen and reviewed the memorial, and there were many reviewed ones on the desk. Obviously, he had been sitting here for a long time.

When entering the door, what Su Lijin saw was this scene. She walked up to Xiao Shengyun and raised her hand to rub the ink.

"My son, why did you remember grinding ink for me today?" Xiao Shengxue said without raising his head.

Hearing this, Su Lijin sighed, and put on a very boring expression on purpose: "Your Majesty, my concubines are really boring."

"Boring? Where do you want to go to enjoy the flowers again?" Xiao Shengyun couldn't help joking when he thought of the last time he went to the peach blossom forest.

Su Lijin shook her head: "You will get tired of admiring flowers every day. I think of a place, but I don't know if the emperor will allow me to go."

"Oh? Where does my concubine want to go? Is there any place that needs my permission?" When she raised her curiosity, Xiao Shengxue paused and turned his head to look over.

Seeing that Xiao Shengyun was finally introduced to this topic, Su Lijin immediately regained her spirits, her eyes lit up and said, "Military barracks!"

Xiao Shengyun looked at her in surprise: "What do you want to do in the military camp?"

"Of course it's to inspect the barracks."

Su Lijin suggested: "The concubine also wants to see how our military strength is."

"Okay then, let's go to the barracks." Xiao Shengyun thought for a while and closed the memorial.

Su Lijin was overjoyed and walked out first.

Concubine Shu learned about this from the maid, and hurried to the carriage: "Your Majesty, wait for my concubine."

She cheekily said loudly: "The concubine has never been to the military camp, and she also wants to go to learn more."

Concubine Shu stopped in front of the carriage, and Su Lijin couldn't help curling her lips.

Xiao Shengyun's voice came from the carriage: "Then let's go together in the carriage behind."

Soon, a group of people came to the barracks.

At this time, drills were going on in the barracks, and the soldiers and generals were almost shirtless, practicing under the sun, fully exposing the muscles of their bodies, which made people blush.

Su Lijin's eyes brightened slightly, and she really didn't have a chance to see this kind of scene on weekdays.

Xiao Shengyun's black eyes were slightly darkened, and his heart was inexplicably sore, he stood sideways in front of Su Li, blocking her sight, and said in a deep voice, "My dear, close your eyes."

Seeing this, Su Lijin felt amused, raised the corners of her mouth, and deliberately joked: "Your Majesty, do you smell something?"

Xiao Shengyun frowned: "What's the smell?"

Su Lijin laughed: "The lemon tastes sour, it almost made my concubine's teeth sour."

Glancing at her, Xiao Shengyun couldn't help curling his thin lips.

That joke made Xiao Shengyun feel a lot better.

She thought to herself, no matter what happens to a man, he would mind if the people in his harem look at other men.

This may have nothing to do with love or not, but just a little bit of a man's sense of sovereignty.

Putting away his thoughts and looking at the soldiers in the training ground, Su Lijin suggested: "Your Majesty, since we are here to inspect the barracks, why not let them have a martial arts competition to see how strong the soldiers are."

This proposal was immediately agreed by Xiao Shengyao, who nodded: "It has always been a custom to watch martial arts competitions when visiting the military camp, so I will sit with you and watch."

When you come to inspect the barracks, you usually look at the military discipline in the barracks and see if the soldiers are well-trained.

Watching them compete, one can naturally see the results of the training.

Concubine Shu glanced at Su Lijin, snorted softly, and sat down next to them.

She followed Xiao Shengying all the way to the barracks, for fear that Su Lijin would snatch some advantage.

At this time, she couldn't help but look at the soldiers on the training ground.

A group of people sat down on the dam, and the soldiers below began to compete.

Knowing that the emperor came to inspect, they worked even harder during the martial arts competition, and they all wanted to show their best strength.

After all, everyone knows in their hearts that this is an opportunity to be appreciated by the emperor.

Soldiers hold the weapons on the drill field, one-on-one, one-on-one, and finally compete for the final winner.

Melons, fruits and pastries were quickly placed on the bazi, and Su Lijin was eating the fruits, her eyes wandering around the field.

She came to the barracks this time, not just to inspect the barracks.

The tour of the barracks was just a cover, her real purpose this time was to get Zhao Heng into the palace.

What should she think of to get Zhao Heng into the palace?
Su Lijin took a bite of the fruit, feeling helpless.

Concubine Shu looked at the soldiers who were competing in the arena, suddenly smiled coquettishly, and said: "Your Majesty, it's just that the soldiers are too boring to compete, why not let the generals also compete to see who is stronger and who is weaker."

Hearing this, Xiao Shengyun's expression remained unchanged, and before he made a statement, Su Lijin, who was next to him, suddenly raised his head, moved his eyes, and agreed with a smile: "Concubine Shu is right, let the generals compare and rank each other. Not bad."

Hahaha, God help me!

At this moment, Su Lijin almost wanted to praise Concubine Shu. Her proposal gave her a very good opportunity, and gave Zhao Heng a chance to show himself!
She was worrying, but she didn't expect that it was Concubine Shu who brought this opportunity to her.

At this moment, she was really glad that Concubine Shu had the cheek to follow, otherwise, she might still be thinking of a way.

Concubine Shu felt unhappy when she saw Su Lijin looking at her with a smile.

Su Lijin would agree to her proposal, this is simply unbelievable!

She always felt that there was something else in Su Lijin's eyes, but she couldn't figure it out, so she couldn't help but glared at her.

"Hmph, no matter what tricks she plays, I won't be fooled!" Concubine Shu snorted softly.

Xiao Shengyun raised his hand: "In this case, all the generals will also compete and let me see your strength."

"Yes!"

After the generals saluted, they each glanced at each other.

The competition between the generals was much more exciting than the competition among the soldiers. They were born in the army and worked in the barracks for many years. Naturally, their skills were not comparable to those of the soldiers.

The rules of the competition are almost the same as those of the soldiers, first one-on-one, and then compete for the final winner.

Su Lijin's eyes couldn't help but fell on a person, that person was muscular and cautious, and that person was Zhao Heng.

The competition went on like a cup of tea, and soon, there were only four generals left.

There was another round of competition in pairs, and the only ones left in the field were Zhao Heng and another tough general.

Su Lijin grabbed the handkerchief in her hand and couldn't help being a little nervous.

Xiao Shengxun, who was on the side, watched the competition with fixed eyes, apparently also attracted all the attention.

"I don't know which of these two generals will win and who will lose." Concubine Shu stretched her neck and looked at the field.

This is what everyone is curious about.

The soldiers almost stopped the competition and looked at Zhao Heng and the other two.

Zhao Heng stretched out his spear, and swept his moves at the sturdy general. The sturdy general looked burly, but his figure was obviously a bit slower, and it was very difficult to deal with it.
