Daliang is located in the plain land, the terrain is flat, the soil is fertile, the climate is suitable, the people are rich, it is a natural treasure land for the founding of the country.

However, when the founding emperor of the Great Liang Dynasty ended the war and established his political power, his strength was not strong, and he was suppressed by the rest of the military attachés, and the imperial power was greatly threatened.

In the past 100 years, Daliang has implemented the national policy of emphasizing literature over military force, attaching importance to literature and civil officials, suppressing military attachés, and recovering military power. For a time, the literary atmosphere prevailed, the literati and rushed out enthusiastically, on the stage of history, manuscript poetry collection and theories flourished in the market, and the children of the family had no intention of making meritorious contributions to protect the family and defend the country, but just wanted to rise to the top and worship the prime minister.

The strength of the military attache has been weakened, and now only General Shen can resist the humerus of the Great Liang General, and the rest of the minor generals have more strength and less experience.

One thing is the same thing, although the emperor of Daliang has implemented a policy of emphasizing literature over military force since ancient times, he attaches great importance to the riding and archery of the people of Daliang. In the school, there is an assessment of martial arts.

There are mounted archery, horse pistols, rifles, and weight-bearing, and the types are also numerous and complex.

Why should you pay attention to mounted archery?

An emperor of Daliang gave an answer, blindly emphasizing literature over military force, what if the enemy country comes to attack in the future? People still have to be able to shoot on horseback in order to protect themselves in the future, so as not to end up with a random arrow shooting.

This quickly aroused the concern of later emperors, who feared that in the long run, they would weaken the strength of the Great Liang and not be able to resist the invasion of foreign countries.

But in recent decades, Da Liang has been safe and sound, and he has not seen other countries come to attack, and it is not enough to be afraid of occasional Hu people to commit, besides, even if Da Liang really perishes, it will be a long time later, what do they have to do? But he said it no more.

Baifeng Mountain Hunting is an annual royal hunting activity, the participants are the sons and daughters of the nobles and ministers, and the rest of the palace concubines and young ladies of the family come to participate in this activity just to be fresh, so naturally they will not go hunting.

The place is set in Baifeng Mountain, where there is a large wide forest, the terrain is high and complex, there are many rare birds and beasts, for this event to be held every year, the children of the rich and noble officials have long been tired, and they come to participate in just a scene to make up the number of people, so as not to make the emperor's face gloomy.

In this hunt, Song Heng only brought the jade concubine to come, which aroused the envy of others, and it was rumored in the palace that Song Heng's favorite was the jade concubine.

Concubine Yu is the daughter of the prime minister, noble-born, smart and exquisite, playing against Song Heng in her spare time, Song Heng also has to bow down, which shows the intelligence of this woman. The appearance is even more first-class, delicate and unparalleled, and the dazzling appearance can be poured with a little powder.

Her beauty is like the midsummer sun, aggressive, leaving no room for it, but bright and moving. Yu Xiao Yan is innumerable and graceful, and the first beauty of Daliang is well deserved.

The recognized first beauty in Beijing was originally the Jade Concubine, but after Shen Nanyan returned to Beijing, her stunning appearance and temperament were dusty, and she captured the hearts of the children in Beijing.

One is a round of the first quarter moon reflected in the pavilion, clear and clean, out of the dust, and unattainable. One is the rich flower of the world, beautiful and fresh, and sought after by everyone.

People who like Shen Nanyan love her cold and arrogant, out of the world, but those who like the Jade Concubine think that Shen Nanyan is beautiful, but there is no charm, lack of fireworks in the world, can only be viewed from a distance and can not be desecrated, and the beauty of the Jade Concubine is respected by the public, beautiful and fresh rich flowers.

This controversy has continued, and everyone has their own opinions.

The two sides were at such a stalemate, so they each took a step back, and in this way, the first beauty in Beijing changed from Concubine Yu to her and Shen Nanyan, who were side by side and did not interfere with each other.

Shen Nanyan has always been indifferent to these things, and she only nests in Shen's mansion to read poetry collections one day, and naturally she doesn't know that she became the first beauty in Beijing not long after she returned to Beijing.

And Concubine Yu is now in the palace, what she does is to please Song Heng, and she doesn't pay too much attention to these things in Beijing.

Therefore, when they appeared in Baifeng Mountain one after the other, everyone's eyes lit up, and the young lady of the family was envious and stared at their faces, reluctant to look away, and the jealous ones twisted the handkerchief in their hands over and over again.

What's more, he was dissatisfied with the result that the two of them were the first beauties in Beijing, and turned to whispering.

Whether they were hunting or not, the children of the family wore riding clothes and waited there to chat.

Miss Shijia also has a woman from a martial arts family, wearing a small red power suit, heroic and neat. There are also young ladies of the family who are quiet and soft, wearing the most ordinary gauze skirts and standing behind their mothers.

Shen Nanyan is wearing a blue cloud Luo skirt made of smoke and yarn today, just dressed as usual, and her face is still stunning.

She stood like this, the brightest one in the crowd, covering up the scenery of those who had worked so hard to dress up.

There were many official and noble daughters around who were originally acceptable, but under Shen Nanyan's stunning appearance, they became dwarfed, and their eyes when they looked at Shen Nanyan were suddenly full of hostility.

Perhaps there were too many hostile eyes, and even the jade concubine sitting at the top found the clue, and said with interest: "Your Majesty, you see that half of the female dependents here are looking at Miss Shen. ”

Song Heng had already discovered that after hearing Concubine Yu's words, he glanced in the direction of Shen Nanyan: "The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." ”

Concubine Yu prides herself on being smart and has an exquisite heart, but she can't understand Song Heng's mind at this time: "Your Majesty, should we speak out to relieve Miss Shen?" ”

"No, let's watch the show." Song Heng glanced at the people not far away and spoke lightly.

Seeing that Concubine Yu couldn't figure out Song Heng's thoughts, she smiled slightly and diverted the topic. ”

She is a smart person, and a large part of the reason why she knows that Song Heng dotes on her is because of her identity, and the daughter of the prime minister saves a lot of trouble when she enters the palace, and she is directly favored by Song Heng.

Song Heng named the concubine of the imperial doctor as the queen, and she was the jade concubine, so her favor was destined to be more than the queen. She was beautiful in her life, rich and noble, and she entered the palace as a concubine, and it was even more smooth for a while. She lived a thorough life, knowing that her entry into the palace was the result of the struggle between imperial power and relative power, so she didn't have the luxury of whether Song Heng really loved her, the main thing was that her Li family would not fall, and Song Heng would still love her as always.

A few days ago, she secretly got the news that Song Heng's sweetheart was Shen Nanyan, regardless of the truth of the news, the person who secretly revealed the news to her must have panicked, hoping to use her means to test one or two and find out Song Heng's mind.

But she, don't panic!

Although she didn't panic, she was happy to watch the play, seeing Shen Nanyan's situation today, she wanted to use this name to test Song Heng's mind, but she didn't expect Song Heng's approach to be out of her expectations, she thought that he would relieve her siege, and sure enough, how could she guess the emperor's thoughts.

But she couldn't show her thoughts too obviously, for fear that Song Heng would see her intentions, and since ancient times, kings have not liked people who try to speculate on his thoughts.

Shen Nanyan was not stupid, she knew why everyone's hostility came, she looked around, and finally found Shen Jin talking to others not far away.

"Ah Ci, you go over and ask my brother to come over." Shen Nanyan said.

Although she doesn't care much about other people's eyes, she doesn't like to be the center of attention.

Ah Ci didn't understand what it meant, didn't ask much, and walked into the distance.

Shen Jin came quickly, which made Shen Nanyan feel very relieved, and the only time she felt that her brother had finally opened his mind.

"What's wrong? But feeling unwell? Shen Jin asked with concern.

"It's nothing, just a little idle and panicked, I want to talk to you." Shen Nanyan said.

As soon as Shen Jin came, the hostile gazes of the people around him quickly disappeared.

"You have time to chat with those young ladies, relax, don't be alone in the house all day." After Shen Jin finished speaking, he realized that there was no young lady around Shen Nanyan, standing here alone, and suddenly he felt a little sorry for her, and he was even more angry that he brought her here but only cared about talking to others: "I'll take you to meet my friend." ”

After that, he was going to take her to meet his friend.

Shen Nanyan hurriedly refused: "No need, brother, just talk to me here." ”

Shen Jin thought for a while, what is the reason for letting Shen Nanyan go to see his friend, it would be bad if it was self-defeating like Mu Zhao's matter, so he dispelled this thought: "Okay." ”

Shen Nanyan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't want to see Shen Jin's friends, and she didn't like to go to crowded places, if it weren't for the unkind gaze of those people just now, she wouldn't have been prepared to pay attention to it.

Concubine Yu smiled and looked at everything that was happening below, the corners of her mouth went up, and a smile floated.

Shen Nanyan, she is not simple.

In terms of intelligence, sharpness, or scheming, Shen Nanyan is by no means below her.

If Song Heng's favorite person was really her, without Gong Dou, she would have already won.

A small episode passed like this, after everyone rested here, Song Heng ordered people to announce the rules of hunting: the one who hunts the most is the winner, and the one who hunts rare birds and beasts is the winner. In the end, the winner can personally ask the emperor for a reward.

As soon as this rule came out, it was an interesting thing for the children of these rich and noble officials, in previous years, only the number of hunts was used to determine the winner, but this year, the rules have changed slightly, and they must hunt rare birds and beasts, and a comprehensive comparison can determine the victory.

This year's rules have aroused their desire to win, making this hunt unprecedentedly lively. The first rule is good to say, it is not difficult to compare the dark number, but it is a little difficult to hunt rare birds and beasts such as leopards and tigers.

Fortunately in winter, the animals may come out to forage for food due to lack of food, as long as they bury traps in the forest. But now it's early autumn, how could tigers and leopards still wander around the woods for no reason.
