Chapter 8: Teaching Sun
Huo Guang's sudden rhetorical question caught Huo Shan off guard, and he hurriedly lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word. And Huo Guang was still staring at Huo Shan waiting for his answer, Huo Shan gritted his teeth and raised his head with difficulty to look directly into Huo Guang's eyes: Do you want the Huo family to be more powerful? Do you want to be a Zhou Gong?
After listening to the disappointment on his face, Huo Guang leaned his body back to the back behind him: Power is important, and it is said that the blue is better than the blue, but there is also a proverb that the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. The gentleman's ze, the fifth and beheaded. The law of the world, there is a dynasty that will not be destroyed, and there is a family that will not wither. A husband cannot live without power for a day, but he cannot be a slave to power. Power is just a cloak, morality, etiquette and law. Weak before the sword. The general trend of the world is mighty, and those who go with it will live and die against it. What is called the general trend, the general trend is the people's hearts, the new emperor ascended the throne, the people's hearts are impetuous, the princes and kings of all walks of life communicate with the ministers of the court in secret, and the wealth sent to me alone can be piled up. Everyone is looking for it, looking at Liu He's flaws, thinking about whether it is possible to pull him off the horse? Is that seat still able to sit on your own?
Huo Guang picked up the teacup and took a sip of hot tea and continued: Liu He has lost the hearts of the people, and Tingwei came to report that Liu He captured the people's girls when he entered Beijing, and the magistrates along the way have reported that Tingwei was suppressed by me. Zhang Anshi also knew, and the ministers all knew, and they were all waiting to see the jokes between me and Liu He. Since you can't live the mud anymore, it's better to use it as a sword to see how powerful it is, the emperor values virtue and filial piety the most, if these two things can't have a little loophole. Once there is a loophole, it can tear a huge wound open. Mountain, you have to keep that in mind. Adults, grandchildren keep in mind.
I have to form some good karma with Liu Yi, which is good for you and the Huo family. The only time your grandfather and my brother paid attention to the government was because of Liu Ju. But when Liu Yi fell, I didn't help, but added to the fire. Liu Ju has already blocked the way of the entire Han military, and he dares to speak out when he listens to the words of Gu Liang who has gathered around him all the year round. The prince of the Han Dynasty did not go through hardships to ascend to the throne, Emperor Xiaojing, Emperor Xiaowu is not a wise god, you must be patient, talk less and listen more, you must know where the root is, don't be fascinated by the nickname and small profit. Okay, I haven't said much for a long time, and I can't protect you for a few years, your uncle Huo Yu and brother Huo Yun are not successful, and the Huo family still has to be handed over to you. You take someone to protect the Yangping Junfu early tomorrow morning, but don't disturb it. If you become lucky, it depends on whether you can become the Qilin of the Huo family.
Huo Shan walked out of Huo Guang's study in a daze, his uncle did not give other tasks, and he followed the housekeeper Huo Fu to the courtyard where he grew up. The housekeeper made the bed and served Huo Shan to wash and change clothes. After everything was served, Huo Fu was about to leave, and suddenly heard Huo Shan ask how many shifts it was, Huo Fu bowed down and reached: Fourth watch, Young Master Shan, you have to rest early, you may not be idle for a moment tomorrow, you have to take care of your spirits!
Fu Bo, how many years have you been in the Huo family? For more than 30 years, when I was in Hedong, the lord said that he would take me to live a good life, and I followed the lord to Chang'an when I was hot-headed. In a blink of an eye, he was already so old, Huo Fu smiled and sighed
What kind of person is my uncle? This old slave doesn't know, but the old man must be a frank and unscrupulous person, the old man often says that good people, bad people, are all in other people's mouths, only he knows what he is. You can't change just because you're wearing silk and satin, because you can see clearly, and the good guys and bad guys just deceive others.
When your grandfather Champion Hou was alive, he said that the old man was very concerned and spoiled this good skin, and the old general Lu Bodelu who accompanied him also said that the old man must be a romantic person in the future. In the blink of an eye, they were gone.
Speaking of which, Young Master Shan, you were the most pleased with the old man when you were a child, don't look at the old man who doesn't smile for a day, every day when you come back from the public family, you must ask about your words and deeds, and often praise you left and right, but don't let you tell. So you have to worry about the master! You see, when you're older, you're verbose. The old slave won't disturb your rest.
Closing the door, Huo Fu slowly walked towards the study. opened the door and found that Huo Guang was still reading the book, and slowly walked to the desk to turn on the light. Huo Guang put down the book, rubbed his brows, and said, "Shan'er, have you slept?" Sleeping master, there is a sentence I don t know if the old slave should say it, the son is only over twenty this year, is it too anxious Huo Fu bowed down and said
Huo Guang didn't answer, just got up, walked to the window, opened the window, looked at the sky quietly, and muttered: I'm fast, I don't have time............
