Pingcheng Royal Palace, Anchang Temple.
"Her Majesty, a stable and expedited biography, a plague occurred in the army of the General of the West, a large number of horses died, and seven thousand soldiers died. The food was inexplicably moldy, because the plague was not dared to eat, and the general would He sent Qiudui out to collect food. As a result, He Lianchang personally pursued it. He suffered heavy casualties and lost his food. He had to retreat to stability ... "
At first Tuobayu was teasing his son. He suddenly heard this report and stood up.
"What did you say? I heard you right? It's been a month since I came back. Why did I send out and chase Helian Chang's team to be chased and beaten by Helian Chang? What about the people? Dead?"
"That's not true. It's just that the supply of grain and grass was cut off. He Lianchang personally led the army to attack the city. The army's heart began to fall apart, and he enlisted an envoy from General Xi for help ..."
"Ask for help! I'm already in Pingcheng now, and I can't help but fly back to give him food!" Tuoba's voice just broke out like a thunder, and his son's mouth was crying, and his voice changed immediately. Be gentle. "Fate Changan immediately to send food and stability. He Lianchang actually left his turtle shell and attacked the city. He should take the opportunity to arrest him. How can he still defend the city?"
For a madman such as Tuobayu, when there is no food and the enemy is in front of him, it is time to fight back. He is a monarch and dares to go alone, but his marshal only dares to retreat for help, making him angry. Teeth are itchy.
"The other person is powerful ..."
"I also dialed 30,000 men and women back and forth! He Lianding took 20,000 horses and dared to run to Dawei to catch me! You are in my mouth and you don't catch He Lianchang alive, don't come back!"
"Yes, Big Khan ..."
The waiter ran away in a hurry, and Tuobayu turned his son from his left hand to his right hand, and found that he was not crying, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, it's daring. Those women in the harem can't wait to faint when they hear me ..."
‘Are you louder? ’
Helen Pearl could not help rolling her eyes.
‘It ’s a battle to kill the whole family. ’
The Pearl of Helian has firmly established itself in Tuoba's imperial palace. She was originally the princess of Xia Guo, and she was very elegant in her manners, and everyone in the palace knew that she had grace and emperor, so it was not difficult for him.
Maybe it was because she showed no understanding of Xianbei. These eunuchs and maids were willing to tell her what she was thinking. Although Tuoba's harem is not a very dark place, he has stayed in such a place in the palace a lot, and his heart is always depressed to the point of going crazy. But some things can't be told to others, maybe even their lives are lost. At this time, there is a little in the foreign country making a hole in the tree, and the whole person feels much better.
Helian Mingzhu wanted to faint from the earliest time he saw Tuobalong's dragon root, and now she is pinched if she has nothing to do, and she cleans it up when she is finished. It can only be said that the time is to kill the pig. If anyone changed it, Seeing her behavior, she couldn't help but be the "weak" princess before.
Gradually, the people in the palace found that the Huang Menguan may have eaten and slept well. The skin from the beginning of the wax yellow matte gradually became fair. This fairness did not change back in a day, but slowly faded yellow. , So it is not very conspicuous.
However, Wei Guo's pickle-colored eunuch's service was very impersonal. Helian Pearl's turmeric powder was used up, and her eyebrows were traced with charcoal pencils every day, and her head was lowered as much as possible, even if someone found that she was really beautiful, People dare to say.
Tuobayu once ordered that if the in the palace dare to rely on the appearance of prostitution / disorder in the harem, no matter who he is, all of them will be executed.
This "all" made many people dare not even smile with Helen Mingzhu.
Helian Mingzhu will make some delicate Chinese snacks, because her former Zhang Zhang was a typical Chinese lady. This technique was once discovered by the leader Zhao Ni who was inadvertently around Tuobayu, and later Tuobayu's small kitchen had a place to play.
Zhao Ni liked the low-key silence of "Zhao Ming", and felt that it was not easy for him to be alone in a foreign country. Rarely, the emperor also valued him and wanted to accept him as "Yizi".
For Helian Mingzhu, being taken by a as a righteous son is simply shame. But what she needs now is to survive in the imperial palace of Pingcheng. If she recognizes such a trusted as her righteous father, life in her palace will be much smoother.
Not to mention, she has no ability to resist now.
The original pearl of Helian and Yu Cui passed. Yu Cui meant to let her try to find a suitable opportunity to show her own identity, so as not to cause trouble later.
But such a decision was quickly forgotten by her.
Tuobayu returned to Pingcheng with her concubines, queens, and princesses. Except for the wives and children of the concubine and Helianchang, her sisters and cousins ​​were rewarded to Tuoba Xianbei's clan and aristocracy, and her six sisters, the fourteen-year-old Jiaozi, were Tuoba Xuan's half a month ago.
Helian Mingzhu was personally waiting for Tuoba's dressing, and that night, almost no idea what kind of mentality she was holding to serve him, watching him walk towards his sister.
I heard that Tuoba has no intention of marrying the princess of Xia Kingdom, because the harem is already troublesome enough. Almost all the Xianbei people have noble daughters, and if they come to the princess of the country, they dare not set foot.
You need to know that Xianbei's female status is not like Han people or Lushuihu people. When she was angry, her concubine dared to show Khan's face.
However, many ministers from the previous dynasties made rumors. For Xia Guo, who had just been destroyed, the urgent hope was that Wei Guo treated the royal family with equal treatment. If Princess Xia Guo is unwilling to be lucky, it is tantamount to thinking that the blood of Xia Guo is humble.
Poor Tuobayu, like a male lion who had to push out to kiss and kiss, sent himself to the dormitory of Princess Xia Guoli, and then he was sealed as "Mrs. "It became one of the women in Tuoba's harem.
Born in the royal family, Helian Mingzhu was very open to such things. She asked herself, Xia Guo's death, because of her six sister's birth and appearance, she might not be able to come to Wei Guo, and now married the owner of the most powerful country in the north, she should be more joy than pain.
But now that she has a sweetheart, she doesn't think there is any good glory for such things. When she was young, her dreams of "marrying a young and handsome promising emperor, and being a favored queen of wiseness and virtuousness" have all become obscured.
What she now thinks is that she can one day go with Hua Mulan and run free on the grassland. He became a general the other day, and she was the general's wife ...
If he wants to return to the field and release Nanshan, Ma will accompany him to be a happy gardener, plant flowers in his spare time, and raise birds.
It is this dream that supports her, whether she feels pain or humiliation, she endures silently.
More importantly, after much contact with Tuobayu, she found that she did not particularly hate such days.
The impression of the Grand Palace on Helian Pearl has always been gloomy, cruel, and with heavy shadows. She and her elder brother's mother had long since died in the fight against Miyazaki. If his elder brother had not been gifted from an early age, she would have grown bright, fearing that she would have starved to a certain corner of the palace very early.
He Lianchang also loved her, at least on the bright side. He likes to hang on to the appetite of those young generals or ministers with her personal affairs. He calls her into the temple when he is fine, helps to deliver snacks, or asks her how she has been recently.
Bai He Lianchang's "intent", she often went to the Ziji Hall to participate in the government, and she did not know anything about politics. But in the eyes of her and all the ministers, He Lianchang was a tyrant who ruled so much that he could not hear others. Sometimes he said well, he would suddenly pick up the things on his hands and smash others into blood.
He is also very lazy about political affairs. Often, the memorials three or four days ago are urged by Taishi Ling to ask for a reply. This is why he found out the memorials in the thick memorial stack ...
Although he refused to admit it, Helian Mingzhu knew that Xia Guoming was not wronged when he met such an emperor. The only thing Hellenchang was willing to do was fight and kill in the harem.
The former made him righteous to kill, and the latter made him uncomfortable.
But for more than a month beside Tuobayu, Helian Mingzhu knew how the young emperor of the neighboring country treated his day.
The emperor usually woke up before dawn, which made Helian Mingzhu get up early to serve.
When their eunuchs (Tuo Baxi did not like to use a palace maid) to serve him, he would often point to the guards on his side, and go to the school hall of the queen to practice martial arts for a while. , Will go back to the palace room, scrub it, change clothes from the inside out, eat something casually, put on the shirts, and go to the Tai Chi Temple.
That's really called "eat something casually". Helian Mingzhu hasn't seen such an unscrupulous person. When he returned from martial arts training, he was already hungry. He would eat whatever he wanted. He was neither picky nor required to eat anything. He couldn't finish eating, but he always unfortunately told them to wait for the waiters to finish, so that they would not waste food.
This alone is already much higher than Helianchang. There was once a chef in the Grand Summer Palace because He Lianchang thought that he was neglectful because he had less meat in cooking, and his nose was cut alive.
After finishing the dynasty, he would change his riding gear to practice arrow training until noon, and then, at the Anchang Hall, would handle his affairs by lunch. Sometimes the minister came early and hadn't eaten yet. Tuoba was glad to invite them to eat together, talk about things while eating, and then was persuaded by the court officials next to him, saying that there was no emperor's magnificence, Tuoba While listening to their words, I took them to dinner.
Political affairs are usually handled until the end of the afternoon. In the evening, he will go to accompany his "nanny" Dou Dou to have a meal, talk about what she did in a day like a biological mother, and complain like a child to those women in the harem. He messed up.
Because Helian Mingzhu didn't understand Xianbei, Tuobayu sometimes complained that these things did not avoid him, and of course, he did not avoid the palace people who accompanied him from an early age.
Queen Mother Dou is a very gentle woman, but no one will try her.
She was not wearing a backprint or a pearl jade around her waist, but a tiger charm of the Beijing Central Guard.
Tuoba Yu had several royal expeditions, and there were many royal families in Beijing, but no one dared to launch a rebellion. He drove to the Xia Kingdom in person, and the great prince Tuobahuang was also entrusted to the Empress Dou to take care of it, because the Empress Dou had a tiger charm to mobilize the guard, and could send 30,000 armored soldiers at any time.
But her temperament and conversation are like that. Even if you give her a tiger charm, she will be a waistband like an ordinary jade pendant and will not be used casually. Even Helen Mingzhu, after accompanying Tuobayu to the residence of Empress Dou Dongyuan several times, liked this quiet and peaceful place.
In the evening, Tuobayu went to the harem according to the power of the Xianbei clan. The palace in Pingcheng is very small, not half the size of the Great Summer Palace, and Tuobayu was fifteen years old when he began to reign. Over the past four or five years, women in the harem have continued to move in too much, and they can no longer live.
Xianbei people get married early, and when they reach adulthood, their grandmother and family must celebrate adulthood. Most of the aristocracy is to send women or marry daughters of their own clan to leave blood.
However, the women who came in had similar status and status, so that the main hall could not hold so many "Madams", and there was only one main hall divided into two or three or four concubines.
This makes Helian Mingzhu not even want to reveal her identity. None of Tuopai's women is not the noblewoman of Wei Guo. There are no concubines from the palace, civilians, and Tuopai has no chance to spoil such a woman. Every day in the harem. Many women look up but do n’t see their heads down. They are all of similar origins, and they are so noisy.
In such a harem, it is normal for Tuoba to have no son for so many years. Zhao Ni once joked in front of her, saying that the emperor got up like a toilet at night, and the concubine next door could hear the sound of water entering the night pot. Which woman is pregnant, she has not found out, she is gone.
Mrs. He was able to safely give birth to Tuoba Huang, and the prince was still intact and disease. She really did what Tuoba said, "It was from heaven."
Helen Pearl sometimes thinks that she is happier than these women of Tuobayu. At least Zhao Nifen didn't give her a lot of sleep, but she had her own house and her eunuchs. She didn't need to share a room with anyone at all.
Her days in the Great Summer Palace were more like a dream.
Every day, Tuobao was accompanied by Tuoba to live such a day. Helian Mingzhu gradually forgot that he was once the master of an imperial palace, with a group of palace people to serve.
"You said, why isn't my son like me at all?" Tuoba said to her in Xianbei, "I don't look bold enough! My character is too stable. My mother said that when I was young, I was terribly skinny ... "
The mother he said was the biological mother and was given death when he was made Prince.
Helian Mingzhu blinked and said in the words of the Huns: "Is the prince peeing?"
Tuobayu just relied on her not understanding and shook her head.
"Where does he dare to pee me! Is this kid strange? He never on me and didn't dare cry in front of me ..."
Tuoba Xun saw that Tuoba Huang in Zhangli opened his mouth and spit out a bubble at him, his eyes widened.
"Are you kidding your grandpa?"
Helian Mingzhu felt that Tuobayu was also very cute, especially when she was bringing children.
Unfortunately, after a while, Mrs. He came to ask for a child.
Perhaps it was Tuoba's heart that already knew the future fate of Mrs. He, and he took care of this woman from He Lai's family. Not only can the little prince support her, but she is even allowed to live in the palace of Empress Dou Dou, without having to share a palace with her wife.
Everyone in the palace knows that this lady will die as long as the prince is established as a prince. While paying special respect to her, she also has special sympathy for her, which makes her more and more quiet, and she is reconciled every night If the child is not separated, even if Tuoba is ordered to hold the child together for a while, she will come over as long as time goes by.
Helian Mingzhu felt that the rules of Tuoba Xianbei were very cruel, and the absence of a hostess in Tuoba's harem for so many years was also related to the "hand-casting goldman" rules in the Xianbei tradition. So far, no concubine in the palace can cast a golden man alone on the "Mid-day" where spring and summer intersect.
If he had a queen to rule the harem, the children of the harem would not be so difficult. After all, the Queen Mother Dou is not really the Queen Mother. Too much intervention in the harem will cause the Xianbei nobles to rebound.
Tuobayu asked Helian Mingzhu to take Tuobahuang out and give it to Mrs. He. She is now a little red man in front of Tuobayu, and is also the righteous son of Zhao Ni. Tuoba is also happy to appease the former confidant of Donggong. When Zhao Ni was absent, she did some things that Zhao Ni did. Already.
Helian Mingzhu carefully held Tuobahuang and looked down, but found that the baby opened his eyes wide after seeing himself, and even put his fist against his mouth, and said "ah".
Tuobayu also said he was timid ...
Isn't that glaring?
Helian Mingzhu was holding this soft little thing. She had hugged her nephew and younger brother and sister, so she had the same look, attracting Mrs. He's eyes.
Mrs. He doesn't look like a Xianbei woman, but looks like a Han. This is probably why Tuoba is often flattered. She whispered to Tuoba Huang's milky name "Guanger" and took the child from the arms of Helian Pearl.
Helen Mingzhu found that the woman was losing weight bit by bit, and couldn't help but say in the words of the Xiongnu: "Women are thin again. Our little Xiongnu's child is sick. Just drink my mother's milk. If you want to lose weight like this, the eldest prince will always drink the milk of the grandmother. If you are really sick, no mother's milk can be drunk. "
Mrs. He raised her eyes in surprise, and Helian Mingzhu immediately lowered her head, and secretly regretted herself talking.
After a while, the beautiful-looking lady smiled from the bottom of her heart, thanked the Xiongnu, hugged her child, and went back to Dongyuan, surrounded by the right and left people.
The Pearl of Helian entered the Anchang Temple until he could not see Mrs. He's back, and found that Tuoba was already reading the chapter. While watching, he casually instructed the people around him to convene several ministers to discuss the matter. Find a place in the corner of the temple and stand still, staring blankly.
After a few moments, several ministers came, and all the people in the palace, such as Helian Mingzhu, withdrew from the hall under the command of Zhao Ni, waiting to be sent outside the hall.
Helian Mingzhu stood for a day, looking for a place where she could hear others but couldn't see her, and sat down, wondering when Tuoba was going to Montenegro, so she went to find her sweetheart.
"So you're here ..."
A clear voice suddenly came from above her head.
When Helian Mingzhu raised her head, she saw that Zong Zong, who was next to the emperor, came to him, blinked, and lowered his head, ignoring him.
This person often talks to her inexplicably in front of her, anyway, she is a Xiongnu who can't understand Xianbei, and can only play silly to the end.
"I saw Mrs. He today, and I always feel bad. Have you seen her? It always feels like a flower is slowly dying. Why won't our Majesty coax her, even if they coax, It won't make her so resentful. "
The young and skinny Sheren also knelt under the eaves, staring blankly at Helian Mingzhu's face.
"Have anyone said that you look like a woman?"
Helian Mingzhu clenched her fists, and Wu tilted her head to look at him.
"Especially looking at people side by side is really wonderful. Even if I know you are a shy person, my heart often throbs."
This time Zheng Zong lowered his head.
"Ah, it's no wonder that men are castrated, and they become more feminine like women. You should cast earlier, so your skin and voice are still like children."
'I will endure! ’
Helen Pearl gritted her teeth and continued to smile.
"Why does Your Majesty bring you such a Huns back to Pingcheng? Is it because you look beautiful? No, it should be said that our Wei and Wei soil are good. When you first arrived, you were ashamed ... ... "Zheng Zong quietly gathered up and said in her ear:" I heard that Her Majesty is a man who likes to look like a woman, while Cui Taichang was still in the East Palace ... "
Helian Mingzhu couldn't help it. Although she had never seen Cui Taichang, from the tone of those around Tuobayu, the minister was Wei Guo's humerus minister, and he was quite respectful.
She suddenly stood up and ran away painfully covering her stomach.
Before Zheng Zong had reacted to what had happened, Helian Mingzhu left him a back.
He stood there, with lingering in his eyes.
"Isn't you even impatient to speak? Even an who doesn't understand Xianbei ..." He said to himself, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you look down on me, there will be a day ... someday ..."
He Lianmingzhu ran for a while, covering Zheng's stomach, and saw Zheng Zong didn't follow him, so she gave a sigh of relief. There were many people talking to her in front of her, but no one would speak of court officials. There are also troubles that are not holy relatives, but most people do not carry this strange tone.
She is not afraid of being maliciously offended or offending, but is afraid of being caught in various conspiracies of the palace or the court. As long as she took the wrong step, as long as she was tortured, everyone would know she had bullied the king.
A man who is as elegant as Zheng Zong is the most terrible. Because no one knows that this man has a bad stomach and sees everything smelly.
He was almost born with grudges about many things.
Helian Mingzhu stood in front of the hall for a while, afraid of Zheng Zong's return, she performed a full set of play, and compared with the palace guards at the door, she went to the toilet and ran back to her residence.
She served the emperor day and night, and her residence was in the side room not far from the back of the temple. After a little convenience, she ran back again. At this time, Zheng Zong also appeared in front of the palace door, and was chatting with another shedee. He saw her come back and smiled at her. Helian Mingzhu also made a sorry gesture, and the latter nodded and said To understanding.
This is a life ...
What a bad heart.

That night, the pearl of Helian accompanied the emperor in the harem.
The highest status in the harem today is Wei Chi Zhaoyi. She has a hot personality, and has been strong with Tuobayu since she was young.
But this does not mean that she and Tuobayu's feelings are as good as honey. Instead, Wei Chi Zhaoyi's attitude towards Tuobayu is similar to her childhood, which makes me occasionally want to sit in her palace. It was a headache to talk about Tuobayu as a child.
"Did you go to Du Gongfang a few days ago? You didn't know that I hated her! I said it was okay for me to spoil her, but can you keep her in the same house as me? Now, you just don't move! Do you look at me unpleasantly? "
Wei Chi is the granddaughter of the Chi Chi family of Xianbei Babu. He has never dealt with the same origin Dukushi. Married to the palace is always compared, and the relationship between the two is getting worse.
"You are all Zhaoyi, of course you live together." Tuoba reluctantly ate the fruits on the table. "How many women in the harem live in a palace with five or six people. What can you two choose to live together?"
"You did it on purpose!"
"Don't make irresponsible excuses, I have no time to appease you ... it is tiring to fight upwards every day ..."
When Helen Pearl stood at the door, hearing the words of the emperor, she couldn't help crying.
For such a smooth-going woman, speaking such words is no different from pouring oil on the fire.
Sure enough, Wei Chi Zhaoyi screamed loudly.
"I shouldn't have promised to marry you in the first place! My brain is broken, good ..."
Tuobayu stood up impatiently.
"I have a bad brain. I'm glad to see you in the palace ..."
He poked his lips.
"If you don't grow the things above, there will be more things below, I will promote you to my general. Who calls you a woman? Now look, it is really troublesome to be a woman. It would be nice if you were a man."
Wei Chi Zhaoyi was almost stupid. The whole person was shaking and his face was ugly.
After finishing eating the fruits brought in by Wei Chi's house, Tuobayu left the sentence "I'll go back first" and left Shiran with her hands behind her back.
The other side was brightly lit, apparently waiting for Tuoba to leave after going there.
Tuoba went out of the door and looked at a group of people waiting at the door. He suddenly felt that the harem was boring. Looking around, his heart was even more irritable, and he waved his hands to drive back to the house where he lived.
Tuobayu never walked like this, and walked everywhere in the palace. If the color is dark today, a group of people pass the lantern in front of the harem, naturally let countless palace people avoid it.
Want to come tomorrow, Wei Chi Zhaoyi's run to the emperor will spread throughout the palace.
In the past, in order to maintain the face of Yu Chi's family, Tuobayu even returned to the night even if he was regenerating, but today he is really upset. How successful he has been in fighting and siege, he has failed in the harem.
Friends are no longer like friends, and wives have no serious wives. The only thing that is good is because I have a son and sooner or later will be given death.
Thinking of it that way, he was even more irritable.
"Why is the life in this palace so boring ..." Tuobayu closed his eyes and asked Zhao Ni, "How long has Cui too often been to Montenegro? How do I think it's been a long time?"
"His Majesty, the first month has passed, and now it is the end of February, and it has been more than a month." Zhao Nichaimu replied: "Cui Taichang used to make ambassadors in the past, and there were two or three months."
"It must have been too easy when attacking Xia Kingdom. Once I returned to the palace, I felt like I was living like a year."
The guards on the side all showed the expression "I'm not at all relieved if I rub it off".
Helen Pearl bit her lip even more.
Zhao Ni smiled but said nothing.
"I said to Kumoti that I'm going to Montenegro in March ..." Tuobayu thought for a while, turned his head and several attendant servants, and said, "Go and ask Gu Xi and Long Sun Han into the palace right away and say me. Negotiate with them about state affairs. "
"Sir, now?"
Now is the time to go to bed!
"Yes, now!"
Tuobayu sighed as he looked at the low-hanging Pingcheng Palace.
"As soon as I rested, I felt rusty. It was time to move."
"Yes!"
The hearts of the few fellows silently sympathized with the two poor ministers.
[Zhao Ming, do you say that my palace is far worse than the palace of Xia Guo, and even the women in the harem can't hold it, only knowing that they are arguing every day? ] Tuobayu suddenly asked the Pearl of Helian beside him.
Helian Mingzhu smiled and opened her mouth, saying: [But Her Majesty, although the Grand Summer Palace is large, the female in the harem only knows that the argument is endless. 】
Tuoba stayed for a while.
【what? Noisy? The queen is not generous, is everyone guarding? 】
[There is only one Her Majesty, but there are countless concubines, and naturally they are noisy. Helian Mingzhu replied faintly, [Most is in the palace, the house of ordinary nobles, and more wives and concubines, that is, everyone has their own house, and they have to quarrel, and there are things that cause death. 】
[Because there is only one? I think women are very noisy, just a few of them ...] Tuobayu touched his face. [Too handsome is sometimes troublesome. 】
Helen Pearl coughed violently.
[Speaking with you is a bit interesting. It's very comfortable. Don't be the same as Wei Chi Zhaoyi. It changes over time. 】 Tuoba uttered a sentence inadvertently. [Kumoti ’s relative, Mulan, is just like you. When I talk to me, I feel like an acquaintance. Although the tone is very respectful ...]
Helen Pearl's heart touched her throat.
[I'm still a brother, much better than a woman. Fortunately, I am going to Montenegro. I remember how many nights you spent with Mulan? It's time to meet acquaintances. You can't see a few acquaintances in Wei, right? 】
[Xie Xiaxia gift. 】
Helen Pearl happily accepted his kindness.
"Montenegro ... Rouran ... Tall Car ..."
Tuoba chuckled and stretched.
"When I rule the north, the entire palace in the north is my palace. Why bother to spend money to build your own palace? Then throw them all into the palace, and you won't be bothered by the sight.
People in the Palace: ...
