Chapter 16: Each has a ghost

The vulgar people in the world, no matter what they think about making friends, just chase fame and cling to power, they go to make friends when they see that the other party is powerful and powerful, and they leave when they see the other party lose power and are down; If you find the other party's mistakes, you don't help correct them, and you don't help remedy them when you see the other party's confusion; If there is a benefit, it will be possessed alone and not distributed to the other party, and if there is a harm, it will take improper means to exempt itself without helping the other party; Or if it is convenient, they will take it first and not humble the other party, and at the critical moment, they will sell the other party to protect their own interests. If you have such a friend, it is better not to have it.

However, there are no clear boundaries in politics. All are in pursuit of maximizing profits, abandoning human nature and strengthening animal nature to win every encounter. It is necessary to give it your all and at the same time keep no hope. Whatever you do, treat it as if it's the most important thing in the world, but at the same time know that it doesn't matter. In a general sense, good and evil, right and wrong, all are invalid. can have all the people in mind, and can also wave his hand to set off a bloody storm and make thousands of people's heads fall to the ground. The most important thing in their eyes is to make the country and the ethnic group stronger and more prosperous. Nothing else matters.

Huo Guang was at the front of the crowd, coldly and emotionlessly, constantly examining this group of Han elites living at the top, including academic authorities, administrative officials, military aristocrats, local tycoons, and political allies who fought side by side with him. All the rights that should be praised and praised in this world are all in this temple, and they need to be compared and eliminated afterwards. Cut off some rotten flesh to make the body stronger.

The end of every intersection is also the beginning of a turning point. I am about to have a period of no one to restrict, and the ideal will be carried out without hindrance under the amplification of power. The people in the DPRK and China have their own little ninety-nines, representing different interest groups. For example, Zhang Anshi, the general of the chariot cavalry, firmly controlled the silk business. Because of the improvement of the textile process, the manor workshop under his subordinates made the Zhang family rich in gold. Including Huo Guang himself, he vouched for the Yang family several times when he was the first emperor. Everyone hates merchants, but no one hates the five-baht money in the hands of merchants. Unite the majority and eliminate the weak. It is a subconscious decision of people, and every turmoil in the DPRK and China will also eliminate a group of people who do not know the times. In this world where interests are paramount, who should be trusted? Or you shouldn't believe it. Only in this way can you put yourself in the right position and express yourself properly, then everyone should be treated with the respect they deserve.

No matter what this conclusion ultimately is, there will always be people whose interests will be damaged, there will always be people who will be overshadowed, and there will always be winners and losers.

Huo Shan sat in the carriage and looked at the scenery outside the window. Chang'an did not stop its own pace because of last night's panic, and the people continued their own life trajectory. Even, changing an emperor makes no difference to the common people. They still have to work non-stop, toiling for food rations every day. Merchants continued to shop and sell their wares. Nothing has changed, but the Son of Heaven has changed. But in the hearts of the people, it is not even as important as whether it rains tomorrow.

Half an hour later, Huo Shan came to the front of the Yangping Jun's Mansion in Shangguanli. Stepping out of the carriage, the general of the guard hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Huo Shan nodded and then said: Gather people and horses, carefully protect the surroundings, and don't let people take advantage of the chaos. Wait a while. Zong Zhengqing Liu Dehui invited Yangpingjun into the palace by the edict of the Queen Mother, everyone carefully escorted, it is a great achievement, and it must be rewarded for meritorious deeds, so go busily.

Well, after receiving the order, the guard hurriedly left and rearranged the defenders, for fear that there would be a loophole and delay his promotion plan. Huo Shan did not stop, and continued to walk towards Yangpingjun's mansion with his cronies. After entering the door, he saw a young man standing in front of the hall looking at him. This person is Liu Ai, Huo Shan hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and the young man hurriedly held him up and didn't let him bow down. This time is different from the past, although Liu Yi has not yet ascended the throne and become emperor. But you must also abide by the dignity and humility of the upper and lower levels, not to mention that your uncle and grandfather have repeatedly reminded themselves to have a good relationship with Yang Pingjun.

Liu Yi had already taken Huo Shan's hand and walked into the hall together, and the servants had already prepared tea. The guest and host sat down, and Liu Yi did not speak with a smile. From last night's martial law, he understood. Huo Guang, Zhang Anshi and others have already started. Liu He, who was in the palace, had been deposed according to the historical process, and Huo Shan said before that there was a small rebellion, but he didn't believe it at all. There are no eternal enemies, and there are no eternal friends. Huo Shan frequently appeared in front of him, and without Huo Guang's instructions, he could only say that he had lived in vain in his two lives.

Huo Shan looked at the man sitting on the main seat, smiling. Looking carefully, Liu Yi already looks very delicate, and he is not much older than himself, and he doesn't even have a beard on his lips.

"I heard that Huo Duwei is proficient in "Han Law", and can distinguish between right and wrong by making good use of criminal law? , then I don't understand something, I must ask the lieutenant for advice in the future. Liu Yi had suddenly spoken

Huo Shan grew up in the Huo family since he was a child, and his grandfather was the famous champion Hou Huo, who was raised by Huo Guang since he was a child. Therefore, under hearing and seeing, he was also familiar with these upper-level routines, and he bowed his head and replied according to the knowledge he had learned from the court in the past: "I don't dare to praise Yang Pingjun in the lower ranks, but some of the villain's retainers have been from Han Feimen for generations, so they are slightly familiar with the law." It's only been a few years, and it's slightly the same as the skin. Let the prince see and laugh! ”

Junhou, I came down to ensure your safety by the order of General Huo Guang. The Empress Dowager sent an edict to find you Yang Pingjun and his wife, and entered the palace to serve. After a while, Zong Zheng will come to greet him. Boy, protect your family and your family. Please prepare early.
