Chapter 106: Return to Chang'an again

Far away from the desert, returning triumphantly, Huo Guang did not have a feeling of returning to his hometown after the end of the rush, but his heart was extremely depressed, the city wall was very high, giving people a heavy deterrent, the first time he returned to Chang'an was to flee, and he did not realize that this was the second time Huo Guang stood under the huge gate of Chang'an, but his mood was different.

Huo Guang frowned slightly, wondering how he could be in such a mood.

The army returned in triumph, and the people on both sides of the road cheered, as if they were celebrating the victory of the battle.

In fact, for them, it is worth celebrating if they do not fight, because every war takes something from them, sometimes it is money, sometimes it is the life of a loved one.

Huo Guang rode on the back of the snow, looked far away, looked around condescendingly at everything in front of him, and kept praising the scenery in Chang'an City in his heart.

He still clearly remembers that when he first came to Chang'an not long ago, the prosperous scene on the streets, the sound of hawkers, the laughter of young girls, and the innocent frolicking of children, a happy and peaceful scene.

Huo Guang followed Huo Qu and walked in front of the team, the people were consciously standing on both sides of the road, Huo Guang inadvertently saw a few girls pointing at him and whispering, subconsciously swept his gaze, and the girls quickly withdrew their eyes and lowered their heads as if they were shy.

He suddenly had an idea in his mind, if he could marry a few wives and concubines here, live a leisurely and elegant life, drink a little wine and brag about the cow, it would actually be good.

Huo Guang thought about the scene of his wife and concubine along the way, and snickered in his heart.

Suddenly, Huo Quai's voice interrupted his obscenity, "Let's go to the palace to meet the emperor." ”

Huo Guangmeng came out of the illusion, a trace of embarrassment flashed on his face, and he nodded slightly with a light "um".

Although it was the first time for him to go out to fight, there was no need to think about this, and it was the first time he should have met the emperor after returning victorious.

They were soon approaching the palace, and the main generals of the campaign were asked to meet the emperor. Emperor Wu's rewards and punishments are clear, the seal that should be sealed, the reward that should be rewarded, and of course the punishment should also be punished.

There is a little Huo Guang has always felt very strange, I remember that in the TV series and his own poor historical knowledge, although Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, although he was eloquent and strategic, he was a short-tempered, murderous, and unkind person, but the emperor he saw last time was a little more benevolent, is it because of the confusion of history here?

After the reward and punishment were over, Emperor Wu ordered the others to retreat, leaving only Huo Qubing and Huo Guang's brothers.

The emperor didn't leave anyone else, but only the Huo family brothers were left, which clearly meant that they were only love, and the other civil and military ministers all cast envious glances.

When everyone else walked out, Emperor Wu raised his hand as if he was looking for something, Huo Guang glanced at the bamboo slips on the low table, his eyes lit up, and he quickly handed the pen not far away to Emperor Wu's hands.

Huo Guang was secretly happy in his heart, he guessed correctly again, thinking about the time before the crossing, the leader held a meeting, he sat in the audience, and he could guess whether he was going to store water or smoke with a casual action. Although this supreme leader is different from that in state-owned enterprises, his ability to pat on the back is well understood.

Emperor Wu's thin lips as thin as cicada wings slightly pursed an appreciative arc and took the pen.

The Huo family brothers didn't dare to say anything, kneeling and sitting under His Royal Highness, no one dared to speak first, there must be a reason why the emperor kept them, the holy will was unpredictable, how could they dare to speculate.

Brothers, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end, they all lowered their eyes and secretly looked at the emperor.

The emperor didn't speak, the courtiers didn't dare to speak, and the atmosphere was slightly embarrassing, and time seemed to be forbidden, until Emperor Wu put down his pen, and the giant wheel of time was running again.

At this moment, Emperor Wu did not have the domineering spirit of the emperor just now, and his face was full of the kindness of an elder who wanted to talk to the younger generation close to him.

Slowly spoke, "Huo Guang." ”

Huo Guang didn't expect the emperor to call his name first, his heart tightened, he didn't react much, he quickly stood up, bowed his head and said, "Huo Guang is here." ”

Emperor Wu smiled and waved his hand lightly, "No need to be formal. ”

Huo Guang responded and continued to kneel aside.

Through two contacts, Emperor Wu liked this dignified, smart and witty Huo Guang in his heart.

Huo Quzhi is Wei Shao'er's nephew, that is, Emperor Wu's nephew, although Huo Guang is Huo Qu'er's half-brother, it stands to reason that he has no blood relationship with Wei Shao'er, but Emperor Wu admires this handsome young man in his heart and has treated him as a nephew.

If Huo Guang's magnanimity and city government in dealing with the attacks of his ministers on the main hall last time left a deep impression on Emperor Wu, the resourcefulness and courage of dealing with the Xiongnu on the battlefield further consolidated his position in Emperor Wu's heart.

Emperor Wu looked approvingly at the young man in front of him with a fair face and clever eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, "Huo Guang, if you can leave your brother, you are willing to be with me, who is an uncle, and stay with your uncle in the future, okay?" ”

Huo Guang's heart mentioned his throat at this time, and he even wondered if his ears had heard it wrong, uncle? The emperor claimed to be his uncle.

He was so happy that he almost jumped up and called Uncle Wu directly.

Happy to happy, reason still prevailed, Huo Guang knew that Emperor Wu could call himself an uncle to his face, that is, he had already treated him as a nephew, just like Huo Quai.

He heard the meaning of Emperor Wu's words, and secretly whispered to himself, my brother is finally going to live a good life after nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties.

Of course, Huo Guang was willing to do so in his heart, and hurriedly replied, "To be able to stay by the emperor's side, Huo Guang is fortunate to be able to listen to the emperor's teachings at all times, work hard, and repay the emperor's great kindness." ”

Emperor Wu is also happy, who doesn't want to find a smart, well-behaved, sensible and obedient child by his side, who can be literate and martial and can also cure diseases, and the key three views are also right, which leader wants to have such subordinates, but Emperor Wu, as the supreme administrator, urgently needs such talents.

Although Huo Guang is young and old, he is still a child after all, and his brother brought it out, even if he is polite, he always has to ask other people's opinions.

Emperor Wu's eyes fell on Huo Quai's body, "Can you rest assured that Huo Guang will stay with your uncle?" ”

Huo Qubing is so smart, Huo Guang is his own brother, and he can serve by the emperor's side, that is an opportunity that many people can't look forward to, even if the emperor doesn't say it, Huo Qubing actually wants to recommend an official position for Huo Guang, and the emperor actually took the initiative to speak. How many people will never have such an opportunity once in their lifetime.

Besides, the emperor only asked for his opinion on the surface out of favor to him, how could Huo Quzhi not have this bit of eyesight, he hurriedly said.

"My brother is young, if there is a mistake in doing things, please ask the emperor to see that he is young and ignorant, don't blame him."

Emperor Wu laughed out loud, and his approving laughter echoed in the huge palace.

"From today on, Huo Guang will be my captain of Fengche, enjoying the treatment of Doctor Guanglu, leaving the car on the side, and entering with the attendant."

Huo Guang knelt down to receive the order and thanked him.
