Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The world said that the emperor was good, but was the emperor's life really that good?

If he were to ask Zai Chun this, he would definitely deny it. The life of the emperor was actually very tough, as most people could not take it anymore even if they were to wake up in the morning.

In the Qing dynasty, when the emperor woke up around 5 a.m., the empress dowager had to pay her respects to the empress dowager. After that, she had to read mainly the 'True Records', which was the glorious story of the ancestors, to show that she did not forget the piety of her ancestors!

Other than that, there were even some emperors who would practice their martial arts according to their preferences. This method would no longer be fixed!

Two hours later, at seven in the morning, breakfast was served in the royal kitchen! After eating, he rested for a while until 9 o'clock!

At this time, he would be in court until around 11 PM!

If there were any important days on the Grand Commission, the emperor would have to get up at around 4 o'clock. This was because the ministers of the assembly would wake up at 4 o'clock and gather before 7 o'clock!

However, only the Grand Commission would have such looks. If the officials were to be like this everyday, even someone who had been beaten hard would not be able to endure!

Since Zai Chun had already returned to the capital, then everything would have to be done in accordance to the ancestor's rules. Ci Xi had warned repeatedly the night before, to let Zai Chun rest early and not be lazy tomorrow.

"Although you do not have a personal authority, you still have the system of holding court. If you do not go to the Yangxin Palace by eight o'clock, you better be careful not to be impeached!"

"The more you act personally, the more careful you have to be. Don't let those little people see it as a reality!"

The mother was afraid that the child would fall asleep, so she allowed the political enemy to use this opportunity to grab onto Little Plaits. But Ci Xi did not expect that the eunuch he sent to call the His Majesty for the morning of the next day would actually come empty!

At five in the morning, the Mind Nurturing Gate had already opened, and even the Inner Right Gate had opened. There was no trace of Zai Chun anywhere in the Yangxin Palace, so the eunuchs who were guarding the door knew that the His Majesty had left the Yangxin Palace a quarter of an hour ago!

"The His Majesty is up? So early? "It's still dark …"

"Hehe …" You don't understand? His Majesty has to set his alarm clock before he goes to sleep. At the latest five o'clock, he can get up on time at four-thirty! "

"You went for morning practice, hurry up and take a look at the archery pavilion, His Majesty is definitely training there with the imperial guards!"

Xiao Letian's education for Zai Chun was completely militarized, getting up early from bed was a given. The army's habit of going to bed early at five o'clock was already, Zai Chun, for five years already!

From the Ryukyu to Europe, other than major diplomatic events and sickness, Zai Chun had never been lazy!

Running three kilometers a day was the basics. After ten days of running five kilometers a day, he would have to practice hand-to-hand combat for half an hour before he could eat breakfast!

A group of young eunuchs carried lanterns as they ran towards Scenic Gate. After the Scenic Gate was a vast open field!

The pavilion was at the northernmost part of the clearing. It had been built four years ago in the early days of Shunzhi. The purpose of this pavilion was to allow future generations of descendants to ride their horses and practice archery!

In order to not let future generations forget the difficulties of the ancestors when they fought in the martial arts world, to maintain the martial arts spirit of future generations!

And the martial arts champion's hall was also here!

It was still dark outside at five o'clock in the winter. The only thing that could be seen was the white of fish belly in the east. The vague outline of a tall building in the Forbidden City could be seen in the east.

As the eunuchs carrying lanterns ran past the Scenic Gate, they heard loud and clear shouts!

"One two one …" One two one … One... Two... Three... "Four …"

The boots stomped on the stone floor in an orderly manner. A team wearing a new military uniform was running in circles in front of the archery booth!

Yesterday, Zai Chun went through a palace change and obtained the right to guard the Forbidden City. Three hundred Manchu s were stationed near the Donghua Gate.

The Chiming Guard, the Shang Yin Courtyard, the Sanyuansi … There were a lot of empty houses, so it was not a problem to free up some of them and place them in the five or six hundred soldiers!

At five in the morning, the New Imperial Army gathered in front of the Arrow Pavilion. Not long later, they arrived at the plaza and saw Tongzhi Emperor, Ma Ming, Bai Min and the rest protecting the Emperor, three companies pulling long queues as they ran around the plaza!

Everyone in the southeast region of the Forbidden City was awakened by the sound of the slogan of "One Two One!" and the rumbling footsteps!

The imperial physicians who were on duty in the Sanyuansi were all gathered at the Wenyuan Pavilion, the National History Museum, and the Cabinet Hall. The guards on duty and the eunuchs were all gathered there.

He stuck his head out of the window and observed the archery pavilion. After taking a look, he immediately muttered, "Aiyo …" is a New Imperial Army of the His Majesty! What kind of martial arts are you practicing? "

"Run!" "Why would a soldier not practice martial arts? Why would a soldier not practice kung fu? Why should a soldier practice running?"

"You don't get it. I heard the secret to training foreigners is running. Let's see who can run faster …"

"Ouch …" No matter how fast he was, how could he be faster than a spear? This is to prevent yourself from escaping after losing the battle! "

"Don't talk nonsense, the His Majesty in front is also running with you!"

Zai Chun wasn't wearing a dragon robe, he was also wearing the little cotton-padded clothes that soldiers trained normally, and after running for three kilometers, his head was covered in sweat due to the heat.

When Ci Xi's eunuchs saw this, they were shocked. Each of them had a head full of steaming hot steam, looking like someone's steamed bun basket had been opened from afar!

"Ouch …" I'll go report to the empress dowager, you guys can stay here and watch … What was going on? Why is His Majesty running? "

Everyone said that the palace was the most righteous place in the world. That was not right!

The Forbidden City was covered in layers of palaces. If you came here at noon, you would also be looking at the buildings in front of the three great halls.

However, the people who actually lived here in history all felt something else!

The Forbidden City was extremely large, and it took up a large area of land, but there weren't many people living here. Soldiers, guards, eunuchs, palace maids, and even Masters, during their heyday, there were only around ten thousand people!

The soldiers and guards were living in a relatively concentrated area, and many areas were forbidden areas to them!

Most of the palaces were deserted, and it was common sense to say that there was no one here!

A tall and majestic palace, a deep palace! If he didn't have enough popularity to support himself, Yang Gang would immediately turn into a dark and cold man!

Eunuch and palace maids gathered together to guard a man. If this aura could be masculine, then that would be damned!

Over the long period of time, the people in the palace had gotten used to this gloomy feeling. Today, with so many masculine soldiers, many people could no longer use this force field!

The three hundred burly new army gathered together and shouted out loud and clear slogans as they stared at the cold wind. The yang energy shot straight to the horizon and shook the hearts of all the Yin experts in Beijing!

Zai Chun really liked this feeling, stirring up a pool of stagnant water, allowing the new energy to rush into the conservative quagmire. So cool!

"I'm in a good mood today. How about another five kilometers?" Zai Chun who was in the group roared out!

"Yes!" Another 5 km! " Ma Ming roared, and the three hundred new troops responded in unison, their voices deafening!

No matter how spacious the area in front of the archery pavilion was, three hundred people running there would seem to be a little small. Zai Chun was in a bad mood when he suddenly pointed towards the direction of Donghua Gate.

"Target Donghua Gate, climb the city walls! Run back and forth along the east wall of the Forbidden City! "

At this moment, the east was already bright. If they were on the majestic city walls of the Forbidden City and ran towards the morning sun, they would definitely be in a good mood for the entire day!
