Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

(I’m sorry everyone, I was too drunk the night before. I slept for too long yesterday and my head hurts, so...)

...

...

The sky was just getting bright, and a room in the quaint Sanqing Hall was dimly lit. The person who got up early was the imperial concubine Zhang, the blue lantern ancient inkstone, and Zhang was slowly copying the words of Zhuangzi. Only by following the wonderful ideas left by the ancients, she can drift away.

The night is too long and Zhang has nothing to do to go to bed early. If the sleep time is too long, her head will be dizzy, and it will also cause difficulty in falling asleep; so she wakes up very early.

A middle-aged woman knocked on the door and walked in and whispered: "Last night Li Taifei called the slaves and maids to meet. It is not easy for us to get in and out of Wanfu Palace. Fortunately, the slaves and maids often do some chores; I didn’t have time to tell the lady. Early this morning, the slave and maid hurried to report..."

This woman was by the side of Zhang during the Taizu period, but she was loyal, just very long-winded. Zhang immediately interrupted her: "Why did Li see you?"

The woman said: "She wants to see you, saying that she has something to talk with the empress."

"Oh..." Zhang's holding a brush in his hand, dipped it repeatedly in the ink in the inkstone, like a boring child playing in the mud, doing trivial and useless things.

After a while, Zhang asked again: "What does she want to talk about?"

The woman said: "The slave and maid don't know, neither did Mrs. Li."

Zhang feels that there is nothing to talk about with this person, and has been grudges for many years. In the beginning, even the Zhang family couldn't remember how she had grievances. Anyway, the root cause was competition. That person believed that she was not pregnant with the dragon seed and blamed the Zhang family. Later, there were too many grievances of various sizes, and this was the case with the grudges. But Zhang couldn't help but want to meet to see what she wanted to do, otherwise this matter would be worried and worried in my heart...

"I'm not afraid of her, so what can I do if I see her?" Zhang said, "You go back with me, and I will change my clothes later, you go and ask our people to prepare and let me see Li."

It's easier for eunuchs and palace ladies who have some responsibilities to get in and out of Wanfu Palace. Once concubines live in, they usually can't get out. Zhang's ability to come out was entirely because the superiors allowed her to go to the Sanqing Palace to clean up.

It didn't take long for the Zhang family to return to Wanfu Palace from Sanqingdian, as if suddenly feeling chill in his heart. Sanqing Palace is even deserted than here, but somehow Zhang feels that Wanfu Palace is even more terrifying.

She went back to clean up, and took a dozen or so palace ladies who were usually close to her to see Princess Li.

Concubine Li unexpectedly greeted her at the door, and her expression changed slightly when she saw Zhang's leading so many people. She was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly bent her knees and hugged her hands on her waist as a blessing. She looked at Zhang's toes and said, "Greetingly welcome the imperial concubine."

The practice of Li Taifei surprised Zhang very much. Although there are some women who have gaps and can be polite on the surface, most of them do not accumulate grievances deeply. Unlike this woman, Zhang's family did not have any kind words in person.

Zhang looked at Concubine Li, but from the manner and demeanor, there was no sign of hostility. This person is still not very old, but he is broad and plump, and does not seem to be slender at all.

Zhang said coldly: "Li Taifei is too polite."

Concubine Li invited her to sit on the couch, looked back at the dozen or so people she had brought over, and asked gently: "The concubine, can you take a step to speak?"

Zhang immediately replied: "Is there anything I can't say now? We are standing upright, there is nothing shameful to say? Why whisper, don't know, think we are discussing some secret conspiracy, just plain Suffering from suspicion, do you think it is?"

After hearing this, Princess Li's face was blue and white, and she was silent for a while. Upon seeing this, Zhang was also wary of her having an on-the-spot attack, but she endured it and showed a flattering smile.

Zhang wondered where this woman must have heard that her nephew had been reused by the new king. In addition, the Zhang family was able to go to the Sanqing Palace to cleanse...It is not so easy to become a monk. Just as many years of experience, once the concubine lives in, it is almost impossible to leave. Even if it is to go to the Sanqing Palace, there are at least opportunities there and outside People contact. Unless it is approved by someone with real power in the palace, this is the case with Zhang.

Concubine Li may have guessed from all the signs that the Zhang family has regained the ranks of power; maybe the meeting of the new emperor in Sanqing Palace has been leaked out. Otherwise, can Princess Li make a low-brow expression in front of herself?

Thinking of the previous grievances, the suffocation, and the slander in the back, Zhang couldn't help but feel a burst of happiness in his heart at this time, as if he suddenly felt a cool breeze in a sultry room, transparent and refreshing.

But with it, there was a hint of chill. This is because Zhang understands that no matter how sincere Li Taifei may be, there is no way she can be patient and be complete; once she has a chance, she definitely wants to get back!

Sure enough, after a long time of silence, Mrs. Li said in a small voice in public: "I saw the imperial concubine today, and the concubine wanted to apologize..." When she said, her face turned red. The face clothes of so many people were soft and her voice was as small as a mosquito. Fan the wings.

Zhang looked at her coldly, feeling uncomfortable for her. Hearing that voice, he knew that it was not easy to say it. But Zhang kept calm and looked at her directly, saying in his heart: Anyway, the grievances are deep enough, and I'm afraid she is useless.

Concubine Li hesitated and said: "I used to have some misunderstandings. The concubine empress does not remember the villain, how about we get back together?"

Zhang kept silent, and slowly said, "Where is there any misunderstanding? I have never had any prejudices against Li Taifei."

Concubine Li murmured: "That's good, that's good..."

Zhang did not give in and agreed to reconcile, because it was impossible; nor was it too much before he succeeded.

She was neither afraid of Princess Li, nor was she grandiose. I have experienced the ups and downs, and understand that it is not always possible to be proud. Especially women, who depend on others...

Cao Bin, who is on the outside, is naturally one of the reasons that Fu Jinzhan and Guo Shao are more tolerant of themselves; but Zhang is so sober, she cannot use Cao Bin as a bargaining chip for her pride. Cao Bin is not her son, and will never affect his loyalty because of his aunt; besides, even if Zhang continues to live in the cold palace, it is a matter of course, Cao Bin is not willing to care about it. Zhang can consider a situation very specifically: assuming that the rich and powerful have listened to some slander and are not happy with themselves, then there is no need to be tolerant.

And the new emperor Guo Shao just met himself, what will happen? Zhang is not sure. The most favorable situation, of course, is that Guo Shao has a good impression of him, and he can decide his own destiny in a word.

This is also the reason why Zhang's design was close to Guo Shao. Of course, her motives were not pure. There were too many realities and tactics in it... However, Zhang recalled that the smaller the place was inexplicably warm, the details were Not a trick.

A pair of rough hands appeared in her mind and placed them on his ribbon. At that moment, he didn't know whether he should undress and care. She seemed to feel the moment of wandering.

...

In the Jinxiang Hall, Guo Shao's thick hands with bulging veins picked up a piece of jade paperweight and placed it on a piece of paper before the ink was dried. The warm and smooth Hetian Yu formed a sharp contrast with his hands.

Here is a set of several rooms located in the north of the office and study, as a resting place. However, it is still very spacious, especially as the central hall of several warm pavilions, occupying a large area. It is very quiet and tidy here, and it is very comfortable to sit here. Even the people in the palace specially opened the windows to consider ventilation. The windows are covered with woven curtains, which are relatively hidden, and the occasional cool breeze does not feel dull at all. All the furnishings and costs are expensive materials and exquisite workmanship; even the handkerchief that covers his mouth when he coughs is also a fine silk material, which is breathable and silky in his hand.

Guo Shao has had a cold in the past few days, but it is not serious, mainly coughing.

He was a martial artist who was sleeping and eating, but now he is sitting here, feeling like he is in a greenhouse. However, such an environment is still very good, it is easier to concentrate when thinking about things, because all the details are very satisfactory, and it is not easy to cause inexplicable subtle irritability.

At this moment, Li Shanggong walked in and said, "Your Majesty, the person you want to summon has already arrived. The slave and maid will bring her here, or..."

"Send her in." Guo Shao said.

Not long after, I saw a young lady in a light red skirt and a heavy box coming in. She is Lu Xiaoniang, and Guo Shao asked someone to bring him into the palace to prescribe medicine for him.

Lu Xiaoniang put the box on the wooden floor and knelt down in the tunnel, saying, "I see your majesty."

"Get up, there's a stool next to me. Cough..." Guo Shao said, "I'm actually fine, but within two days Wang Wei and the others are going to come to Beijing. They are also uncomfortable coughing to see them. I want to get better soon. I still believe in Lady Lu. I have personally experienced medical skills, you are very agile in treating wind and cold." Guo Shao said with a smile.

Lu Xiaoniang's face blushed, UU Reading www.uukānshu.com looked back, and the palace maid had exited the door just now, and there were only the two of them in the huge palace. Lu Lan whispered: "I'm here to face the saint. I was scared just now. Unexpectedly, your Majesty is still the same."

Guo Shao smiled and said: "Identity can change, but people will not change."

Lu Lan then boldly observed Guo Shao's face and said, "Tongue out and take a look."

After a while, she glanced at it, bit her lower lip lightly without smiling, and said, "Left hand stretched out."

Lu Lan gently lifted Guo Shao's yellow satin sleeves up, and put his fingers on Guo Shao's veins. Guo Shao didn't say a word and asked her to get her pulse. He only felt that the little girl's hand touched her skin, and she felt an indescribable touch of comfort.

Unexpectedly, Lu Lan didn't let go for a while, and suddenly blushed and said, "Your Majesty, don't look at me, it made my heart confused, and I can't feel the pulse..."

Guo Shao said in amazement: "Okay, okay, I turned my head."
