When Wang Mang came to the hall, he saw Huo Rongsheng sitting in the guest seat, half-closed his eyes in contemplation, and said with a light smile: "Huo Shao, I don't know what the big deal is, how can you come to me now?" ”

Huo Rongsheng heard the words, opened his eyes, and shook his head with a wry smile. Then he took out a roll of yellow cloth from his arms and handed it to Wang Mang.

This cloth is the piece he held in his hand before, and it is the holy decree issued by Liu Xin, the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Wang Mang took the holy decree, took a closer look, and did not speak.

At that moment, the two were silent for a while, and Huo Rongsheng took the lead in speaking: "Brother Wang, Your Majesty has issued an edict five times to let us enter the court, how should we deal with this matter?" ”

Wang Mang frowned and said, "Your Majesty's move is really good, perseverance. He let us enter the government for politics, just to let us fight with Huo Wei, and he just sat back and enjoyed his success. ”

"That's right, Your Majesty doesn't intend to let us continue to develop comfortably, and is going to start taking advantage of us." Huo Rongsheng was puzzled: "If we still refuse, I'm afraid it's not easy to act." If we say yes, then aren't we bound to be bound? ”

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger?" Wang Mang replied: "Liu Xin has developed very rapidly over the years, in addition to our help, there is also the Feng family's secret help.

I know some of the details of the Feng family. Feng Yi, the current head of the Feng family, is ambitious and by no means easy to deal with. It's a pity that Liu Xin and the Eighth Prince thought that the soldiers and horses in Liangzhou were under their own command, but they didn't know that those soldiers and horses had actually completely obeyed the orders of the Feng family. His Majesty is completely deprived of power without knowing it.

However, I didn't join the court before, because I considered that we had a lack of foundation, had no right to speak, and it was not good to fight with Huo Wei's family. As for now, it doesn't matter. ”

"You want to promise Your Majesty?"

Huo Rongsheng was taken aback, shook his head and said, "Brother Wang, I can't see this matter, you still need to think carefully." ”

Wang Mang replied: "Huo Shao, I won't tell you, I had plans to go to Qingzhou before. In recent years, we have made considerable achievements in Liaoning, and the people have enough food and clothing, but it has almost reached a peak of development.

Full of warm thoughts***, if the people are in this state of happiness for a long time, I am afraid it is not suitable. We occasionally stir up wars, which is conducive to the people's enterprising spirit.

Huo Shao, do you remember what you said at the beginning? You once said that you would be the second Huo Quai, and now the soldiers and horses of Xirong Beidi have invaded the border of Kyushu. If we continue to fight with others, I'm afraid everyone will have to finish the game. And the people will also say that we are petty and unwilling to really contribute to the country.

Now is our chance to make a difference. Xirong Beidi soldiers and horses will be our help to unify Kyushu. If they hadn't come to attack, we wouldn't have been able to find an excuse to attack on a large scale. ”

When Huo Rongsheng heard this, he was even more surprised, "Are you going to use the Xirong Beidi soldiers and horses as a springboard to gain benefits from them and unify Kyushu?" ”

"Yes, now Kyushu has its own masters, and the people in it are all bound by some families, and it is difficult to break free, and they are constantly exploited. As far as I know, there were many people who wanted to come to Liaoning, but they were all blocked by these families, and we had to solve this matter.

We can't just care about our own development and not care about the lives and deaths of others. Those families will not perish, and there will never be peace in the world. Previously, we didn't pay attention to the affairs of Kyushu, but our own strength was not enough. Now that we have 200,000 men and 100,000 horsemen, it's time to move. ”

"For such a major event, I think it is better to gather the generals and the three merchants." Huo Rongsheng said.

Wang Mang nodded and said, "The matter of sending troops must be convened by the generals to discuss. The year before last, I specially asked Han Fei'er to secretly go to Qingzhou to develop and listen to the news, for today. In the future, this will be where our troops will be stationed, not a place where the people will live for a long time.

I want the people who have come to us to return to their hometowns in the future and live in peace, instead of surviving in a foreign land. Fallen leaves return to the roots, fallen leaves return to the roots, our ultimate goal is not to create a pure land of bliss, but to create a pure land for the whole of Kyushu, eradicate traitors, and cultivate the pride of the people. ”

Huo Rongsheng squinted his eyes and said: "The heroes of the world, after gaining the general trend, none of them want to sit back and enjoy thousands of miles of rivers and mountains and be crowned emperors. And you're good, obviously you can continue to accumulate strength and recharge your energy at this time, but you want to enter the chaos. Brother Wang, do you know that as long as we continue to develop here, there is a great possibility that we will be able to sweep Kyushu and unify the world in the future. ”

"Hahaha, Huo Shao, let me ask you, if I arrest Wei Ziyao, the number one beauty queen in the world, and let her be your woman, do you want her?" Wang Mang asked.

"What do I want her to do? I have Xiangrong four women's football teams. Huo Rongsheng replied.

"That's not it." Wang Mang smiled: "If I have Jingyan, it is equivalent to having everything." As for sealing the heavens and becoming emperors, if it weren't for the people, I would never have this intention. If it is possible in the future, when we fulfill our wishes, it is estimated that you will be like me, and you have no intention of taking care of the country. It's about finding a place outside the world and recuperating for a long time. ”

"Hahaha, those who know me, Brother Wang." Huo Rongsheng nodded and said, "To be honest, Jiang Shan really doesn't have much interest in me. As for women, I already have four Xiangrong. Now, for me, only an eternal fame can make me happy. Only you can make me fulfill this wish. ”

"Hehe..." Wang Mang laughed lightly a few times, and discussed the situation in various parts of Kyushu again.

The two talked for more than an hour or two before they finally straightened out the context and had the next development direction in their hearts.

After the matter was finished, Huo Rongsheng didn't stay for long, got up and left.

Wang Mang sent him out of the door, and then turned around and came to the dining hall.

When Huo Rongsheng returned to his residence, Liu An saw it and hurriedly asked, "Young Master Huo, I don't know what Young Master Wang said?" ”

Huo Rongsheng replied: "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband. Brother Wang took into account that there were Beidi strong soldiers in the south of Yizhou who invaded our border, and on the back of Gansu, there were Xirong Hu people who wantonly slaughtered the people of our Kyushu. Therefore, Brother Wang promised His Majesty to enter the court as an official, and join hands with His Majesty to sweep away foreign barbarism and revitalize the dynasty. Just now, Brother Wang said that he will leave for Qingzhou in the next few days. ”

When Liu An heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, "Okay, since this is the case, then I will return to Your Majesty immediately." ”

"You can go and see Your Majesty, please don't worry about Your Majesty. Although Kyushu is in troubled times at the moment, and traitors are hegemonic, it is not for those barbarians to disturb it casually. If others don't help to care for the world, Brother Wang and I will definitely help. ”

Liu An replied: "Young Master Huo, you and Young Master Wang have such benevolence, it is really a blessing for my Han Dynasty. When I see Your Majesty, I will definitely make my mind clear for Huo Shao. ”

"That's very good, you can go back early, I have other trivial matters, so I won't send them away." Huo Rongsheng said with a smile.

"Don't work hard and send each other away!" Liu An was overjoyed in his heart, bowed down, bowed, left the mansion, got into the carriage, and went straight to the imperial capital of Qingzhou with his entourage.

Seeing that he had left, Huo Rongsheng thought for a while, and said to the attendants outside the door: "You quickly invite Mr. Gongsun, Mr. He Jin, Lord Chen Chong, General Dong Wu, General Yanyang and other generals to me. I said I had something important to discuss with them. ”
