Chapter Ninety-Six: Farewell to Grandfather

As soon as the Shangyuan Festival passed, General Huo began to prepare to return to the Great Northwest. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The atmosphere of the New Year's Festival in Dingbei Palace, which had not yet dissipated, was suddenly replaced by the sadness of parting.

The world is impermanent, and General Huo Da does not know what year and month he will be able to return to Beijing.

Who knows what will happen in the meantime?

Who knows what it will look like in a few years?

General Huo is in one day, and all the people in Dingbei Wangfu can enjoy a day's blessings, once the general is ...... Huo Xiao and Yuan Yuan's husband and wife don't seem to be easy to get along.

Everyone in the palace expressed their reluctance to General Huo's trip.

Especially Princess Dingbei, on the surface, she is still a dignified and steady lady, but in fact, her spirit has dispersed, and her eyes look dull.

It has been almost forty years since she married into the Huo family, and she and General Huo have always been less together and more separated, and even she can't count the number of times she has sent him away.

Supposedly, she should have gotten used to it, or rather, she was numb.

However, including the one when he was sent to the battlefield more than 20 years ago, there was no such sadness and reluctance.

The general and she are not young anymore, maybe they will see each other in another ten or eight years, can she still wait for that day?

Even if she could, she would be too old to look good.

When she was young, she was the most enviable bride in the capital, a god-like handsome husband, a noble status, a powerful hand, and a peerless demeanor in both civil and military affairs......

Until now, she can clearly remember the posture on horseback when they first met, and the eyes that were proud and flying enough to light up the heavens and the earth.

If someone had told her at the time that the price of getting all this was decades of being alone in an empty house, decades of loneliness, would she still be willing to marry him?

The general's romantic heart is known to everyone in the world, but she knows that his romantic heart is true and his heart is false, because he has no heart at all......

She hates, she resents, but more often than not.

Even if her love is weak, she is reluctant to watch other women take his surname and become his wife.

On the eighteenth day of the first month, everything is fine.

Princess Dingbei led her children and grandchildren to send the general to the gate of the palace.

"Ah Xiao and Yuan'er follow me out of the city, and everyone else will go back." The general took the whip handed over by his entourage and instructed gently.

Princess Dingbei's lips moved, but in the end she didn't say another half a word.

The others didn't dare to interject, and only made another big salute to the general.

The general turned over and said loudly: "After the commander leaves, you still have to be sensible and abide by the rules, the children of the Huo family may not be the pillars of the country, but they must not be the country's heroes." ”

"Yes." All the children of the Huo family responded in unison.

There are not a few of them who are not successful, but who dares to disagree at such times?

Huo Xiao and Doudou hugged their fists at the elders and turned over on their horses together.

The general raised the whip in his hand, and a group of more than a dozen horsemen galloped towards the mouth of the alley.

Ten miles of long pavilions outside the West City Gate, General Huo pulled the reins of his horse, and more than a dozen horses all stopped.

"Ah Xiao, Yuan'er." He turned his horse's head and stared intently at the pair of men on horseback behind him.

"Grandfather." Huo Xiao and Doudou hugged their fists in response.

General Huo said: "Grandfather is going to meet your second uncle, and I have something to tell you." ”

The young husband and wife said: "Follow your grandfather's teachings. ”

General Huo bowed his head slightly and said: "Your Majesty is wise and wise today, the Great Zhou Dynasty is politically harmonious, and there is a faint appearance of prosperity, you must abide by your duties and cannot be exceeded."

The Huo family has been in charge of the military for several generations, and those in charge of the military do not interfere in politics, and will always only listen to the orders of the Son of Heaven.

A single tree does not make a forest, and it is never the most outstanding and excellent children in the family who decide the fate of the family.

If you have any confusion, write to your grandfather, and if it's good news, that's even better.

The Huo family has such a beautiful woman and a beautiful woman, and the grandfather doesn't have too many thoughts, everything is cherished. ”

Without waiting for Huo Xiao and Doudou to answer, the general clamped his legs between the horse's belly and led more than a dozen horsemen away.

After a long time, Doudou still looked at the front reluctantly, and muttered: "Huo Xiao, the general is too ......"

Huo Xiao sneered lightly: "You shouldn't be fascinated by the old man's demeanor, right?" ”

Doudou glanced at him: "I'm just fascinated!" Looking at the whole world, who can have this bearing? ”

Huo Xiao pouted: "It's just an old man, wait until the master reaches that age......"

Doudou took a bite of him: "This little princess is waiting, you have to ask your grandfather for advice, don't become a bad old man and be disliked by everyone at that time!" ”

Oops, old, head, son!

This lentil cursed himself for the second time as a bad old man!

Huo Xiao gritted his teeth and smiled: "Don't worry, when the time comes, this little prince will definitely not dislike you for being a bad old woman." ”

Doudou likes to see him angry the most.

A domineering and arrogant little prince is actually weird and cute when he gets angry!

She kicked the belly of the bean paste and said with a smile: "Grandfather is gone, where are we going?" ”

Huo Xiao said with a straight face: "Go home!" ”

Doudou smiled: "Don't, this is out of the city, why don't we go to the horse race?" ”

Huo Xiao said: "This little prince is still angry!" ”

Doudou took the reins of the horse to Huo Xiao's side: "Where is it so atmospheric, if you don't race horses, you can do it, chat with me." ”

Huo Xiao chuckled and said, "The skin is getting thicker!" ”

Doudou gently tapped Sesame's buttocks with a horsewhip, kicked the bean paste again, and the two horses ran slowly together on the official road.

"Huo Xiao, grandfather told us not to exceed the rules, do you know that we will deal with Yu Wenheng?" Doudou thought of General Huo's words, and inevitably had some different ideas.

Huo Xiao said: "Not necessarily, but even if he knows, it doesn't matter, I'm my own grandson." ”

Doudou said: "That's right, but my grandfather's meaning is very clear, he doesn't want us to get involved in the affairs of the royal family, especially the competition for the position of the prince." ”

Huo Xiao stretched out his hand and pulled the cloak for her, and said: "Whether it is for the country or the family, the third old man will never give up the military power in his hands easily, but one thing can be guaranteed, he is definitely a pure minister, and like his father-in-law, they don't want to get involved in the affairs of Lichu." ”

Doudou said: "Then let's ......"

Huo Xiao smiled: "Are we involved in the matter of Lichu?" ”

Doudou pursed her lips, as long as it wasn't Yu Wenheng, she really didn't care who the other princes were on top.

Choosing a prince to support is to mix with the prince, they pulled Yu Wenheng off the horse and made him lose his qualification to be the prince, isn't this also a disguised mixing?

Huo Xiao said seriously: "We are sweeping away disasters for the Great Zhou Dynasty, and we are by no means mixing with the reserves." ”

Doudou snorted, and it made sense to say that.

Huo Xiao looked at his daughter-in-law who was smiling like a flower, leaned over to her and said, "The third old man's words are not focused on this. ”

Doudou's face raised: "Then I won't take that medicine from now on!" ”

As long as you don't take medicine, the good news is very fast!

Huo Xiao: "......"

Doudou squeezed the horse's belly hard, and the bean paste sped forward like an arrow, leaving behind a silver bell-like laugh again.
