Chapter 864

Since he gave Zhao Bing the opportunity to get close to him, the girls seemed unwilling to miss the moment they interacted with him. They were laughing at the sound of the orioles and thanking him. They were often sent to each other. Some were like fairies in the Heavenly Palace who pretended to be noble without eating fireworks. Naturally, they were inevitably posing as sad and sad as if they were in Xi Shi... Anyway, they were dazzled and dazzled.

Although Zhao Bing was dazzled, he sighed in his heart that the beauties living in the writings of literati of the Song Dynasty were like a picture like a poem - the breeze blew through the leaves, as if full of tears of parting, and contained eternal infatuation... Such beauties are enough to intoxicate men in the world. The images of beauties in the Song Dynasty are all petite and thin, with thin willows, laziness and powerlessness, and sorrow, which has become the beauty of women appreciated by the literati of the Song Dynasty, and the children raised by such mothers can be imagined.

Due to this worldly style, there are probably only two types of beauties living in the Song Dynasty: one is a dignified and restrained woman who is praised by orthodox scholars and officials, who is a dignified woman who "starved to death and lose her integrity"; the other is a passionate woman who "teared to death and had a lot of clothes and powder" and "dance skirt and singing board to enjoy her heart". The woman's mind and appearance are all infected with the pathological depression of the times, which makes her look similar to the modern aesthetic view. They are both thin as beauty, and it is also the origin of many beauties being talented women at the same time.

"Your Majesty, isn't it very pleasant?"

"Shu'er, it's not comforting, it's hard work!" The beauty has become aesthetically tired after seeing too much. Moreover, after reading so much, Zhao Bing loses his initial interest as he goes back. He also turns to a mechanical action and doesn't even raise his head. Now someone suddenly is rude. When he looks up, it's indeed Chen Shu'er, and he responds helplessly, and handes three incense sticks at the same time.

"Well..." Shu'er snorted coldly with her face, but she didn't accept the silk incense she handed over.

"Oh, Sister Shu!" Zhao Bing suddenly woke up and hurriedly changed his words. In fact, he also knew Shu'er's psychology at the moment. He just wanted to show off her special relationship with her in front of the girls to satisfy her little vanity. He could only cooperate.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Shu'er then took the incense, but the girl in front of her was still worshiping the moon. She did not rush to leave, but pulled the person behind her forward.

"Your Majesty!" The visitor stood at attention and saluted.

"..." Zhao Bing immediately subconsciously raised his hand to return the salute when he saw it, and then he realized that the person coming was Li Sanniang, but he was wearing palace outfit and was a marching salute. He thought he was nervous and instinctively marching as if he was himself, but this made the scene look extremely awkward!

"Puff!"

"Li Tongzheng, there is no need to be polite in the palace!" Zhao Bing turned his face and saw Wang Yu singing. When he saw him, he quickly bowed and bowed his head, but in just a moment the contempt on his face could not escape his eyes.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Li Sanniang then put down her hand, but her waist was still straight and kept standing at the right position, still like in the army.

"Can you still adapt in the palace?" Zhao Bing saw that although he was slightly powdered on his face, he was still much darker than those fair-skinned girls, but he had a heroic spirit on his body, and asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, it's okay!" Li Sanniang replied softly.

"What's the good thing? What's wrong with your Majesty talking to you!" Chen Shu said anxiously after hearing this.

"Oh, I'm wronged when I say that Sanniang is wronged!" Zhao Bing said in surprise. Li Sanniang had made a marriage contract under the leadership of the empress dowager many years ago, under the witness of the ministers. It can be said that everyone in and outside the palace knew about it. But there are still people who dare to give it a grudge, which makes people feel strange.

"Your Majesty, don't be too careful. It's just that I'm not saying good-looking and not understanding the etiquette of the palace. I'm just scolded for a few words!" Li Sanniang saw that the little emperor's tone was unkind, and knew that he was already annoyed. She quickly chuckled and explained, but she was very helpful, but she didn't want to disturb the matter of sacrifice to the moon, so she could only answer like this.

"Is it really that simple?" Zhao Bing could tell from his face that he was forced to be happy and asked in a deep voice again.

"Yes...yes, it's time for me to burn incense!" Li Sanniang hesitated and said that, and hurriedly left.

"Does Miss Li often be punished?" Zhao Bing saw him leave and turned his face to ask Zhang Ping.

"Report to Your Majesty, it's not always like this!" Zhang Ping was stunned when he saw the little emperor suddenly ask him.

"Oh, Is it okay if I scold you a few words?" Zhao Bing asked again.

"Yes...not!" Zhang Ping looked up at the little emperor and then lowered his head and replied in a panic.

"What's this?" Zhao Bing said with some amusement when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, don't be upset. Miss Li has been in the palace for the first time and has many unclear etiquette. The head of the ceremonial bureau is unavoidable to punish, scold, and whip a few times!" Seeing Zhang Ping hesitantly, Wu Xi interrupted.

"Yes, Miss Li is full of slang words, she is speechless when dealing with it, and often makes mistakes when practicing the etiquette in the palace, which makes the main cause angry!" Cheng Su also continued.

"Do you often get punished?" Zhao Bing looked at the three of them and asked.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have practiced etiquette more at home, so why would I make mistakes?" Before anyone could answer, I rushed to answer.

"Haha, the master of this etiquette is really lucky, and he has lived to this day!" Zhao Bing knew after hearing this. This was the correct way to open the palace battle. He handed the incense to the next girl and smiled.

"Your Majesty, what...what does this mean?" Cheng Su said with a confused look on his face after hearing this.

"Don't you know that Miss Li is a commander of the army?" Zhao Bing looked at him and asked, shook his head blankly when he saw him, and then said, "Miss Li is the commander of the mountain brigade of the guards. He has three thousand elite soldiers under his command. Isn't it because he dares to whip her? "

"Ah?!" Cheng Su said in surprise when she heard this, she covered her mouth with her hands and continued to ask, "Then has she killed anyone?"

"Isn't it the most common thing for people in the army to kill people? When attacking Lin'an City, it was Miss Li who led the army to climb the city. In this battle, there were no less than a hundred enemy soldiers and generals killed by him. And he followed me from Qiongzhou to attack Jiangnan and fought thousands of miles until he recovered Ezhou. He stopped the army. Do you think she had killed anyone?" Zhao Bing smiled.

"In this way, the teacher is really lucky. Fortunately, I have never provoked Miss Li!" Zhang Ping said with his tongue.

"It turns out that Miss Li is still a general under His Majesty. No wonder he would salute when he saw His Majesty!" Wu Xi nodded slightly, understanding the reason for the incident. It has become a habit for him to be in the military for a long time. It is normal for him to salute when he sees His Majesty instinctively.

"Miss Li is the bravest army. If anyone disrespects me, I will give him three points. Don't say that she kills a teacher, even if she kills a few, I will not be able to deal with her!" Zhao Bing glanced at the people on the field, shook her head and sighed.

"This..." Cheng Su couldn't help but take two steps back after hearing this. Although His Majesty didn't say anything, his eyes clearly swept over him. The meaning was very clear. Even if the showies present were killed by Miss Li, they would die in vain, including her.

"The etiquette is completed!" As he spoke, all the beautiful girls who participated in the sacrifice had finished worshiping the moon and said loudly.

"The empress dowager has an order, please ask the official to divide it!" At this time, Dou Xing hurried over and passed the order.

"Only follow the order of the Queen Mother!" Zhao Bing listened to the ritual. After the ceremony was completed, the main priest should have held a cutting knife and cut the moon cakes evenly according to the number of participants, one serving for each person. Each person had a petal of watermelon, and the fruits were taken by themselves. However, the Queen Mother asked him to cut the knife, and the meaning was not to be understood.

Zhao Bing gave the order to step forward, remove the incense and candle on the sacrificial table first, and someone gave it to him. Without thinking, he picked up two moon cakes, a watermelon, and then put them in a tray, and personally gave them to the queen mother. When he returned to the sacrificial table, he looked at the field but had not taken action. He didn't know how many people participated in the sacrificial moon, so he had to count first.

"Your Majesty, there are 42 people participating in the moon sacrifice, twenty-four mooncakes, and three watermelons left. You don't have to worry about taking them for yourself!" Just as Zhao Bing was preparing to count the points, Wu Xi reminded quietly without saying a word.

"Thank you!" Zhao Bing nodded. He couldn't help but look up at him. The little girl secretly mentioned himself in time. Even if she abandoned her utilitarianism, her ability to observe words and expressions was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Zhao Bing took the knife and saw that the three watermelons were about the same size. As for cutting them into lotus shapes, it was not difficult for him to calculate it silently, but it was impossible to divide them evenly, either not enough or more. But no matter how many it was troublesome, everyone would not care about a piece of melon, but the meaning of this piece of melon. Whoever had more favors would be more likely to be promoted. The same is true for mooncakes, and there would be more divisions, which was clearly because the empress dowager deliberately asked herself to have problems.

However, Zhao Bing thought for a moment and then moved the knife. He saw that he held the knife and cut several times on each melon, but from the appearance, it did not separate. However, after being raised, he gently touched it with his hands and spread out into sixteen pieces of the same size, just like a blooming lotus, which made people scream. However, some people were watching the fun, while others saw the trick. When the knife was taken, it must not only be accurate, but also calculate it well. If there were slight differences, it would be difficult to form, and the number was incorrect.

"Thank you for your hard work, and you will receive double payments!" Zhao Bing turned his face and said to the participants.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Cheng Su, Wang Yu, Wu Xi and Zhang Ping stepped forward and said, each taking their own share first and retreating aside.

"From the sacrifice, please come forward to collect it!" Zhao Bing said to the rest of the people, but no one moved, and his eyes were all concentrated on Li Sanniang. He was secretly happy in his heart, knowing that what he said just now must have reached everyone's ears at the fastest speed. In fact, they also understood that Li Sanniang had a long engagement with him, while others were to be determined. His current status was higher than everyone here. When they were gone, they could pretend not to bully others, but who would dare to offend now?

"Miss Li invites you first!" The others did not dare to move. Li Sanniang was still confused and didn't know what had happened. Seeing that it was cold, Wu Xi hurriedly came out to invite her.

"Thank you Your Majesty!" Li Sanniang was still a little confused when she heard this, but when she looked around and the little emperor, she understood. She stood up and found that what she left for her was also double the amount. She immediately felt warm and bowed deeply.

"Pick more fruits, Jiangnan is not as good as Qiongzhou, and you can eat them all year round!" Zhao Bing put a complete moon cake and two pieces of watermelon on a plate, and picked up a few fruits and put them on the plate.

"Thank you for your kindness and reward!" Li Sanniang said with tears in her eyes. No matter how stupid she was, she understood at this moment. The little emperor had realized that she had suffered a grievance. This was to stand up for her to warn others and show his attitude that her status could not be challenged by others.

After Li Sanniang left, the others came forward to receive half a piece of mooncake and a watermelon. Only Chen Shu took one of her own and refused to leave. Zhao Bing had no choice but to share half of his share, and he left in disappointment. After the separation was completed according to the procedure, he had a banquet. Taking advantage of the re-arrangement, Zhao Bing called Wang De and gave a few instructions, and went to invite the queen mother to the table again.

The empress dowager refused on the grounds of being exhausted and wanted to go back to rest. She also said that the empress dowager is still not long after he returned to the spirit. Although she has been deposed and the mourning period has passed long ago, there is no need to hold a mourning for the ban, but it is not advisable to be too ostentatious. Zhao Bing naturally said that he would leave only one case to cheer up the band, and all the others were removed. Then the empress dowager called him to his side and advised him a few words before he got up and left, leaving Zhao Bing alone here to support the "big situation".

Zhao Bing looked at the rising moon and sighed. The Queen Mother's intention was clear. He thought that he had chosen a beautiful girl, but whoever he had made the queen depends on his intention. However, what he had done just now was in a proper manner, and he could not tell who he was interested in, so he was very dissatisfied and asked him to make a decision as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble. Because the uncertain position of the queen will not only cause speculation from the ministers, but will also make the female girls suspicious of each other, making the harem unstable and the future will be endless.

Zhao Bing also saw that it seemed to be harmonious at the moment, but in fact the fight had already begun secretly. From some people excluding Li Sanniang, it can be seen that the competition is fierce. In theory, her status has been decided. Although the identity of a slang person determines that she cannot be the queen, the position of the five concubines must be one of them. Of course, both concubines are also in the rankings, and some people are like pushing her down, so they are in trouble everywhere.

What made Zhao Bing uneasy was that someone actually tried to interfere in the affairs of the inner palace. Otherwise, the teachers of the Embassy Bureau would still be fine even though they knew Li Sanniang's identity. You should know that although Li Sanniang was born in Qiongzhou, he received Confucian education since childhood, especially after getting married to him, he was trained carefully and received etiquette training from the Han people. The official words are more authentic than himself, and those people can punish them on this ground. In his opinion, it is no different from talking lies with open eyes.
