The world of film and television starts from the flow of money

After the training at noon, most of the guardsmen who returned to the camp were sweating profusely. Their foreheads and cheeks were covered with fine beads of sweat, which sparkled in the sunlight. However, despite being exhausted, they were still in good order. They quickly gathered the team. In the quiet camp, except for the slight panting of the officers and soldiers, there was no noise at all.

"All!"

Han Xin rode his horse slowly towards them, with an upright posture and a determined look in his eyes. He shouted loudly, "It's time to eat!"

Upon hearing Han Xin's words, the soldiers' true colors were revealed. The seriousness and fatigue on their faces were instantly replaced by joy. They jumped up and down like a group of children, running faster than during the training, as if they were afraid that all the food would be snatched away.

After a while, Yi Huawei saw these soldiers coming out one by one with large wooden bowls, running towards the cafeteria like a tide, their steps hurried and eager.

Although they were in a hurry to eat, they still followed the rules and knew to line up. The soldiers consciously lined up in neat rows without any confusion. The line was like a long dragon, winding in front of the canteen entrance.

In the cafeteria, the meal was braised pork with carrot and pork ribs soup. This was definitely a rare delicacy for most soldiers. They could not have eaten so well during the Chinese New Year.

Looking at the food in the bowls, the soldiers' eyes flashed with satisfaction. They sniffed the aroma of the food, and happy smiles appeared on their faces.

After the meal, the soldiers did not eat immediately, but carried the food and went to their respective camp areas in an orderly manner.

Each battalion and team would not start eating until all personnel were present and the commander gave the order to eat. This rule was to cultivate the soldiers' sense of collectivism. It made them understand that in the collective of the army, individual actions must obey the arrangements of the whole, and only by unity can the greatest combat effectiveness be exerted.

Although the soldiers had been training for two hours, their appetites were immediately whetted when they saw the big piece of meat in the bowl. At the command, they quickly picked up the wooden bowl and chewed the braised pork in big mouthfuls, their mouths full of oil. For these soldiers, such a meal was already a rare delicacy. In the hard training and life, a meal of braised pork was their greatest satisfaction.

The meal time is very short. In less than a quarter of an hour, the whistle will sound. At this time, the soldiers must immediately put down their bowls and chopsticks and stop eating. If anyone violates the rules, they will face punishment. This is to cultivate the soldiers' discipline and obedience, so that they can respond to orders quickly in any situation and maintain the combat effectiveness of the army.

In the morning, the soldiers will do physical training. They will do various high-intensity physical training on the playground, including running, push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, etc. Physical training is the foundation of military training. Only with a strong physique can one withstand various pressures on the battlefield and complete difficult tasks.

In the afternoon, there is comprehensive combat training. The twelve temporary battalions are reorganized into six categories: cavalry, infantry, archers, artillery, baggage, and engineers. After the reorganization, each branch of the army will undergo special training. The cavalry must learn skills such as riding, charging, and tactical coordination; the infantry must master shooting, fighting, tactical formations, etc.; the artillery must learn to operate artillery, calculate shooting parameters, and coordinate operations; the baggage troops must be responsible for material transportation and logistics support; the engineers must conduct training in engineering construction and obstacle removal.

Of course, before this, it does not mean that cavalrymen only need to learn to ride horses, archers only need to draw bows and shoot crossbows, and artillerymen only need to fire cannons. Before the reorganization, Yi Huawei planned to let the soldiers first conduct certain basic training on the skills of various arms. The purpose of this is to make the soldiers more professional while not neglecting omnipotence because of being too professional. On the battlefield, the situation changes rapidly, and soldiers may need to undertake different tasks. If they only master a single skill, it will be difficult to adapt to the complex battlefield environment. Through basic training, soldiers can understand the characteristics and functions of each branch of the army and improve their overall quality.

The soldiers from these camps will be dispersed throughout the army, serving as grassroots backbones and teaching other legions new ways of fighting. They will pass on the knowledge and skills they have learned in training to other soldiers, improving the combat effectiveness of the entire army. These grassroots backbones will become the backbone of the army, and their experience and abilities will play an important role in promoting the development of the army.

After inspecting the training of the Imperial Guards, Yi Huawei ordered several boxes of ice cubes and bayberries to be sent to the camp. These ice cubes and bayberries were specially prepared by him for the soldiers to cool down. In this hot weather, a glass of iced bayberry juice is undoubtedly an excellent drink to cool down.

Yi Huawei rode on his black horse and slowly walked out of the camp. Just as he left the camp, cheers suddenly broke out in the camp. The cheers echoed in the camp and could not be calmed for a long time.

………………

When I returned to the Zhao residence, the sky was already completely dark, and the inky night enveloped the earth. The bright stars and the moon hung high in the sky, emitting a soft light. However, although the sun had set for a long time, the temperature still did not drop much, and the hot air still made people feel a little suffocated.

Yi Huawei sat in the study for a while, but he didn't feel any wind blowing in. He felt inexplicably irritated. So he walked out of the room and sat down in the yard.

The yard was still stuffy, so Yi Huawei asked Qiuju to bring some chilled wine lees.

After a while, Qiu Ju came over carefully carrying the chilled wine lees, as if she was afraid of spilling the precious drink. Qiu Ju came in front of Yi Huawei, bowed slightly, and then scooped a bowl from the jar and presented it to Yi Huawei.

Yi Huawei took the lees and took two sips. The cool feeling instantly spread in his mouth, like a stream of clear spring water flowing through, which relieved his feeling of heat. He turned to look at Xiao Xizi and said, "The weather is so hot. Ask the kitchen to make some mung bean soup, chill it, and share it with everyone."

"Yes! Thank you, sir!"

Xiao Xizi bowed and happily trotted to the backyard.

"Look at how sweaty you are. Pour yourself a bowl!"

Looking at Qiu Ju, who was sweating profusely, Yi Huawei smiled and asked, "Did you receive any visiting cards today?"

"Thank you, my lord! I am not thirsty now..."

Qiu Ju bowed gracefully, her lips turned up, revealing a few small canine teeth. She tilted her head, looking very cute. She frowned slightly, thought seriously, and then said crisply: "The doctor Zhao Cheng wants to invite you to a banquet tomorrow, and the Xianyang magistrate Yan Le will come to visit the next day... Oh, and the old general Wang Jian... also wants to invite you to a banquet the day after tomorrow..."

Speaking of Zhao Cheng, originally in history, he was Zhao Gao's younger brother. However, when Gao Gao of this life came back, he naturally had no direct relatives. Somehow, Zhao Cheng became a distant cousin of Zhao Gao. No one knew where he came from. However, Yi Huawei saw that he was capable and loyal, and he would never betray him, so he decided to send Zhao Cheng to the important position of Langzhongling. Zhao Cheng lived up to expectations and worked diligently in his position, handling many affairs for Yi Huawei.

Yan Le was originally Zhao Gao's son-in-law, but in this life, Yi Huawei didn't have a daughter to marry him. But out of curiosity about this man, Yi Huawei specially came to test him. Yan Le is indeed very capable, and can see through people's hearts, and is very "considerate". After thinking it over again and again, Yi Huawei recommended him to be the magistrate of Xianyang. After Yan Le took office, he also managed the affairs of Xianyang with all his heart and soul.

There was also the Guard Commander Shejian, who was promoted by Yi Huawei. Shejian was upright, brave and good at fighting, and had outstanding military talents. With him leading the guards and protecting the safety of Xianyang, Yi Huawei was very relieved.

Together with the Black Dragon Guards, the entire Xianyang was under Yi Huawei's control. It can be said that Yi Huawei could not hide any disturbance from his eyes and ears.

But this Wang Jian... Yi Huawei pondered for a moment. Wang Jian’s invitation must be about something important.

Yi Huawei nodded and habitually mentioned: "Remember to remind me about General Wang Jian the day after tomorrow, and tell Yan Le to find another date."

It’s not that Yi Huawei has a bad memory, it’s just that Qiu Ju needs to have some sense of presence.

"promise!"

Sure enough, the little girl nodded happily.

While Yi Huawei and Qiu Ju were chatting, a servant hurried over from outside the courtyard. His steps were hurried and his expression was a little nervous. When he arrived in front of Yi Huawei, the servant bowed slightly and said respectfully: "The Queen Mother is here to visit..."

"Okay, I get it now."

Yi Huawei was slightly startled, patted his clothes, stood up, straightened his slightly wrinkled sleeves, and walked towards the door. Qiu Ju also stood up quickly and followed behind Yi Huawei.

Arriving at the gate, Yi Huawei stopped and quietly waited for the arrival of the concubine. After a while, a gorgeous carriage slowly drove up and stopped in front of the gate.

The door curtain of the carriage was gently lifted, and Yu Shu, wearing a gorgeous palace dress, with pearls and jade on her head, had a dignified and beautiful face. She looked at Yi Huawei, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

Yi Huawei took a step forward, bowed slightly, and said respectfully: "Your Highness Zhao Gao greets the Queen Mother."

Yu Shu nodded gently, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone: "Master Zhao, you still want me to come and invite you in person!"

"The Queen Mother is joking!"

Glancing at the guard who was not looking away, Yi Huawei stood up, turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation, saying, "Please come in, Madam Concubine."

Yu Shu nodded slightly, and walked into the yard under the guidance of Yi Huawei.

After Yi Huawei welcomed Concubine Yu Shu into the mansion, he told Qiu Ju to prepare tea in the pavilion in the garden.

The pavilion was surrounded by thin gauze curtains, which fluttered gently in the breeze. In the center of the pavilion stood an exquisite sandalwood round table, covered with a brocade tablecloth embroidered with exquisite patterns.

After a while, Qiuju came over with tea and snacks. First, a set of exquisite tea sets was placed on the table. The teapot was small and exquisite, and the teacups were white as jade, exuding a warm luster. Then, plates of exquisite snacks were placed on the table, including small osmanthus cakes, golden in color, exuding a faint osmanthus fragrance; delicate mung bean cakes, and shortbreads made into various shapes.

Yi Huawei extended his hand to invite Yu Shu to sit down and personally poured her a cup of tea.

The aroma of tea rose and filled the air. Yu Shu picked up the teacup, took a sip, nodded slightly, then picked up a piece of osmanthus cake, took a bite, looked up at Yi Huawei, and said with a smile: "The Prime Minister is really particular. He never tires of fine food and never tires of delicate minced meat!"

"My lady, you are joking. I hope you don't mind!"

Yi Huawei bowed slightly and waved his hand gently, signaling Qiu Ju to leave.

Qiu Ju understood, bowed slightly, and quietly left. At this time, there was no one else around, Yi Huawei's eyes fell on Yu Shu again, smiled, and said in a relaxed tone: "Madam, what are you doing here today?"

Yu Shu raised her chin slightly, a hint of anger flashed in her eyes. Her cheeks flushed, and she said angrily, "You ask even though you already know the answer?"

Yi Huawei was slightly stunned, then he patted his forehead as if he had suddenly realized something, and said with a smile: "If it weren't for seeing your father, you wouldn't be coming to see me?"

Yu Shu was ashamed and annoyed when she heard this. She opened her eyes wide, glared at Yi Huawei, and said:
"You! Dengtuzi!!" (The term Dengtuzi comes from the poem "Dengtuzi's Lustful Fu" by Song Yu, a writer from the Chu State during the Warring States Period)
Yu Shu clenched her fists tightly, trembling slightly, as if she was trying her best to control her emotions. She looked like an angry kitten, adorable and hilarious.

"Haha~~"

Yi Huawei smiled, with a hint of ridicule in his expression:
"Song Yu said that the daughter of the Dong family was extremely beautiful. If she were one inch taller, she would be too tall; if she were one inch shorter, she would be too short; if she were powdered, she would be too white; if she were rouge, she would be too red; her eyebrows would be like emerald feathers, her skin would be like white snow; her waist would be like a piece of silk, her teeth would be like pearls; her charming smile would fascinate Yangcheng and enchant Xiacai.

But in my opinion, she is far inferior to the Empress. The Empress is as graceful as a startled swan, as graceful as a swimming dragon, with her hair as light as the moon covered by clouds, and as fluttering as snow in the wind. She is as bright as the sun rising in the morning glow; as dazzling as a lotus emerging from the green waves. She is slender and graceful, and her height and shortness are just right. Her shoulders are as sharp as a knife, and her waist is as thin as a willow. Her neck is long and beautiful, her skin is white, and her fragrance is unparalleled, and her makeup cannot cover it. Her bun is high and her eyebrows are long and beautiful, her lips are bright, and her teeth are white. Her eyes are bright and charming, her cheeks are beautiful, her posture is gorgeous, and her demeanor is calm and relaxed. She is gentle and charming, and her words are charming. She wears unique clothes and her bones are as shown in the picture..."

Yi Huawei spoke incessantly, his eyes full of admiration.

"do not talk!!"

Yu Shu listened to Yi Huawei's praise, and her cheeks gradually turned red. She lowered her head slightly, a hint of shyness and joy flashed in her eyes, and her hands unconsciously loosened, gently fiddling with the corners of her clothes. After a while, she raised her head, glared at Yi Huawei, and said angrily: "Slippery tongue!!"

Although he was scolding, there was no anger in his tone.

Yi Huawei looked at Yu Shu's reaction and smiled slightly:
"I'm speaking from the heart. When it comes to beauty, your majesty is truly unmatched."

"Humph!"

Yu Shu snorted lightly and ignored Yi Huawei, but the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

Yi Huawei looked at Yu Shu's reaction, and an inexplicable heat surged in his heart. He coughed lightly and said, "My queen, I am indeed a little busy today regarding meeting your father, but I will arrange it as soon as possible. It is better to have the day as soon as possible, so let's do it tomorrow. Rest here tonight, and I will take you to meet them tomorrow."

"you……,"

Yu Shu was slightly startled, and a faint blush appeared on her cheeks. There was a hint of hesitation in her eyes, as if she was considering something. After a moment, she bit her lip and nodded imperceptibly.
