Time flies, the hot summer recedes, and the early autumn comes.

Bihuan is neither a palace maid nor a concubine, but the wife of the emperor's minister, but she has lived in the harem for a long time, which is inevitably a little tongue-in-cheek.

So Ning Yunxiao thought that it would be better to let Li Yiyan give Bihuan a name than Bihuan living in the harem for no reason.

This Ning Yunxiao also thought that if Bihuan could have a title and hold a token in her hand, no one would dare to do anything to her, and it would be much easier for her to do whatever she wanted.

Ning Yunxiao found Bihuan, Bihuan was cooking tea for Ning Yunxiao, Ning Yunxiao pulled Bihuan away, "Okay, I've said it many times, these things shouldn't be done by you." ”

Bihuan wiped her hands, "Then what should I do?" ”

Ning Yunxiao couldn't answer Bihuan's question, so he had to say, "You are not the palace maid in my palace, besides, you are not well yet, don't do these things, just let the palace maid do it." ”

Bihuan thought for a while and quibbled, "I can't do anything, so I have to do what I can to help Niangniang." ”

Ning Yunxiao felt that Bi Huan didn't seem to be able to figure out his identity, so he pulled Bi Huan into the house, "I want Li Yiyan to give you a county lord!" ”

Bihuan stood up suddenly, her face full of surprise, she waved her hand vigorously, "No need, thank you Niangniang, I really can't stand it!" ”

"What can you bear, you should know in your heart that I have never treated you as a slave!" Ning Yunxiao said, and without waiting for Bihuan to answer, he interrupted her, "Forget it, it's decided, don't argue with me." ”

"Niangniang is loved, Bihuan is grateful." Bi Huan looked at Ning Yunxiao's determined face, and agreed, moved in her heart.

Ning Yunxiao drank all the tea in the cup.

"Without further ado, I'll go talk to Li Yiyan first." She said, getting up and leaving.

This matter is to be done as soon as possible, it is already autumn, and in a few days the early winter is coming, and the palace will be busy, Li Yiyan has to go up the mountain to hunt in the early autumn every year when he is still the prince, everyone knows this, and the mountain has already begun to prepare.

Moreover, after the hunting, it is necessary to prepare for the repair and renovation of the old palace in the palace, and things are busy one after another.

Ning Yunxiao hurriedly went to Li Yiyan's imperial study, in his opinion, Ning Yunxiao had done enough things on weekdays, if he came to find himself during the day, then there must be something to plead with him.

Not long after the matter of Bihuan and his companion, Ning Yunxiao must still come to ask him about Bihuan.

Ning Yunxiao entered the imperial study and saluted, "See the emperor." ”

Li Yiyan put down the music in his hand and raised his eyes to look at her, so obedient, he must have something to ask for.

Li Yiyan exhaled and said, "Excuse me, come here." ”

Ning Yunxiao smiled and responded, sat on the small stool next to Li Yiyan, casually looked at Li Yiyan's recital, thought about it and said, "Bihuan is kind to me, and she is also affectionate, now that she is helpless, I wonder if I can tell the world and make her the county lord." ”

"Naturally, it's a trivial matter." Li Yiyan nodded and returned, "And if Bihuan becomes the county lord, her status will be improved, at least she can avoid a lot of trouble." ”

Ning Yunxiao also nodded, "Her health is not good, and she always lives with the concubine, she always can't get over this hurdle in her heart, she feels that she is a slave, she is always busy, and the concubine looks distressed." ”

This Bi Huan has followed Ning Yunxiao before, Li Yiyan naturally knows what Bi Huan is like, this girl is kind-hearted, but she is also upright, and she has suffered so many setbacks this time, if she is named the county lord, it will be a kind of relief to her.

Li Yiyan nodded, "Okay, tomorrow, I will decree that she be the county lord, you go back to rest first, I still have a piece to watch." ”

……

Ning Yunxiao returned to her dormitory, and watched Bihuan really be a little obedient in the courtyard to enjoy the flowers, followed by a little palace maid, took a pink cloak for her, stood behind her, and talked to Bihuan sentence by sentence.

Ning Yunxiao took the cloak and asked the little palace maid to go down, seeing that Bihuan was wearing thinly, he shook off the cloak and put it on Bihuan, and said to Bihuan very happily, "Bihuan, I went to the emperor just now to suggest it, and the emperor said that he will make an order tomorrow to make you the county lord, and you will wait to be promoted to the county lord!" ”

Bi Huan's eyes widened, it was impossible to say that he was unhappy, at least the county lord was also the emperor's own seal, and it was very magnificent to say it!

Bihuan squatted and gave a big gift to Ning Yunxiao, "Niangniang's great kindness to Bihuan, Bihuan can't repay it." ”

Ning Yunxiao hurriedly pulled up Bihuan, "What are you doing, I said, treat you as a sister, if you need anything in the future, just mention it to this palace." ”

"Yes, thank you."

Bihuan and Ning Yunxiao entered the house, and Bihuan didn't sleep all night.

She wanted to be a companion, and she hoped that she would come tomorrow, and how happy she should be to see the moment when she was named the county lord.

But she didn't know that Li Yiyan had already used a flying pigeon to pass a book to Bandang at night, and told Bandang that he would make Bihuan the county lord tomorrow.

The next day, the sun was shining, as if heralding the arrival of a better day.

The matter of appointing a minister's wife as the county lord did not need to be discussed with the ministers in the early dynasty.

Ning Yunxiao and Bi Huan also waited for a long time, waiting for the arrival of the holy decree.

A father-in-law hurriedly entered the queen's bedroom, "The holy decree has arrived!" Bihuan takes the order! ”

As soon as they heard that there was a father-in-law announcing the decree outside, Ning Yunxiao and Bihuan hurried out of the house, and the people of the entire palace gathered together, knelt on the ground, and waited for the decree to be received.

The father-in-law opened the holy decree and read it in a thin voice, "I remember that Bihuan has meritorious service to protect the queen, and is kind-hearted, gentle and virtuous. ”

A group of people knelt down and saluted, and Bi Huan took the holy decree with both hands, "Thank you for the emperor's grace!" ”

Ning Yunxiao was the first to get up, and the next group of people waited for them to get up, Bihuan and this father-in-law were also very familiar, she approached and said, "Thank you, father-in-law." ”

The father-in-law laughed, looked Bihuan up and down, and sincerely blessed him, "Congratulations to Miss Bihuan, oh no, it's the county lord of Bihuan." ”

Bi Huan smiled and did not speak.

Ning Yunxiao took Bihuan's hand and said to this father-in-law, who often met and couldn't be more familiar, "Go in and have a cup of tea?" ”

The father-in-law waved his hand, "No, this slave still has to go back to help the emperor arrange the hunt!" Drink it another day. ”

Ning Yunxiao replied, "Okay, then I won't send it to my father-in-law." ”

The father-in-law saluted and returned to the imperial study.

Ning Yunxiao looked at the holy decree in Bi Huan's hand, and then looked at the jade seal, in case this matter was fake.

Ning Yunxiao returned the holy decree to Bi Huan, took Bi Huan's hand, and said, "Alas, Bi Huan, you are really lucky, the Sulphur Palace is a good place to go, it just happens to be very close to here, we can still meet from time to time!" ”

"yes, thank you Niangniang."

"Let's go, go and have a look at your palace."

Ning Yunxiao took Bihuan to the Sulfur Palace, which has been idle for a long time, but there are palace maids to clean it every day, and it can also be said that the Sulfur Palace is a branch of Ning Yunxiao's palace.

The crisp autumn weather passed quickly, and everything in the palace was finally on track, at least to Ning Yunxiao and Li Yiyan were very pleased.

In the past three months, Bi Huan, as the county lord, naturally has to be carefully served, so his own body has also recovered from before, it is this lovesickness, I am afraid that it will not get better no matter what.

The early winter is coming, although there is no goose feather snow, but the weather is starting to get cold, everyone has entered a state of warmth, hiding in the warm pavilion to prepare for the whole winter.

Ning Yunxiao is not afraid of the cold, but Bihuan is afraid of the cold, Ning Yunxiao thought, I am afraid that Bihuan's body has not recovered well after the miscarriage, so she became ill, and it must be this reason that caused her to be a little afraid of cold.

Ning Yunxiao asked the imperial doctor to prescribe a few doses of medicine and send it to Bihuan, hoping to relieve her cold, and it would be useful to drink more hot tea.

In the past few days, Ning Yunxiao has also frequently gone to Bihuan's Sulphur Palace, just hoping that Bihuan's health will be better, because she needs Bihuan to accompany her to hunt with the emperor in a few days.

Seeing that Bihuan's body had improved somewhat, Ning Yunxiao was relieved and said to her, "Bihuan, the emperor is going to hunt in a few days, you should know, right?" ”

"I know." Bihuan asked again, "What's wrong?" ”

Ning Yunxiao smiled, "You have to go with me." ”

"Why?"

"If I don't have you on the way, it will be very boring, most of the emperor's leaders are ministers, besides, you are alone in the palace, I don't worry."

"But I, am I not afraid of holding you back?" Bihuan continued, thinking of her sick appearance, and felt a little annoyed.

Ning Yunxiao thought that Bihuan must have been too worried, "Don't worry, I will accompany you!" ”

Li Yiyan sat on the dragon chair, announced the matter of hunting, and asked, "Who wants to hunt with me?" ”

There was a lot of discussion among the ministers below, and many generals and important ministers expressed their willingness to hunt with Li Yiyan.

This is a good time to get close to the emperor, and it is also an opportunity to show yourself.

Li Yiyan knew this, so he said casually, "I am scheduled for the beginning of next month, there are not a few days, you can prepare it, you can bring a small number of family members to hunt together, but pay attention to safety!" ”

"Thank Emperor Longen!"

The father-in-law, who was standing beside the emperor, took out a pen and paper to record the ministers who wanted to accompany him, sorted out the notes reported by the ministers, and listed all the lists of people who needed to participate in the hunt, in case there was any danger and there were few people.

Everything is ready, just wait for the beginning of the month, and the army will be in full swing.

The magnificent rivers and mountains are at the soles of their feet, Li Yiyan stepped on the rivers and mountains he had built inch by inch, and felt extremely proud and proud, but at the same time, this reminded Li Yiyan not to be careless, so that he would lose such a land.

Li Yiyan and Ning Yunxiao rode two horses side by side, walking in front, this hunting was originally a light matter, and there was no need to make the atmosphere so solemn.

Ning Yunxiao looked at Li Yiyan's facial expression, and suddenly laughed, Li Yiyan looked at her with a frown, and asked, "What are you doing with Xiaozhen?" ”

Ning Yunxiao said, "Why does the emperor look sad? ”

Li Yiyan looked at the group of people behind him, approached Ning Yunxiao and whispered, "Who knew you would bring Bihuan here?" I just asked my companion to go out on an errand, and I missed such a good opportunity! ”

Ning Yunxiao pursed his lips and said nothing.

Bihuan still knows how to ride a horse, and when she saw Ning Yunxiao talking to each other, she deliberately quickened her pace and walked to Ning Yunxiao's side, staggering half of her horse body to show respect.

This group of them, with a lot of things, a lot of people, a big battle, if it is not for the small road, I am afraid that it will frighten passers-by, besides, the villagers all know that the emperor is going to hunt, and when they see so many officials, they don't pounce on the gratitude, and the revenge is revenge?
