For a few days at home in the capital, Hua An chopped firewood, carried water every day, helped his father and mother, did some small things within his ability, and took Han Xueyu to the market from time to time to have a good time.

On this day, he was chopping firewood at home, Han Xueyu next to him was playing on the side, Needle Niang was busy cooking, and Huagui was repairing the broken chair.

"Uncle, aunt, is Hua'an at home?" There was a shout outside the door.

Huagui didn't raise his head, and answered loudly: "The door is not tethered, come in!" Hey! ”

"Squeaky ......"

The half-hidden door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man about thirty years old walked in, this person was naturally Li Shang who gave the brocade box.

"Oops! Where are they? Hua'an! I haven't seen him for a few months, and I've grown stronger, like a general. Li Shang said and walked towards Hua'an.

Hua An looked up and saw that Li Shang was coming, still holding a brocade box in his hand, so he hurriedly put down the axe in his hand, stood up, and greeted: "Yo, Brother Li is here, what kind of gift do you bring!" Please come inside. As he spoke, he reached out to pull Li Shang.

"No, no." Li Shang hurriedly broke away from Hua An's hand and said with a smile: "Hua An, congratulations on becoming a general, this box of gifts was given to you by the master, come, take it quickly." ”

After Li Shang finished speaking, he handed the brocade box into Hua'an's hands.

Hua An gently took the brocade box, and his heart was suddenly full of surprise, when did he become a general, and Wang Dao was a court situ, and he would give gifts to himself.

But if you think about it carefully, in the past few months of bloody battles with the army of Zhao State, I have really made a lot of contributions.

In order to verify his speculation, Hua An frowned and asked, "Brother Li, Hua An is only a lieutenant in the army, when did he become a general, and let Lord Situ give me a gift." ”

When Li Shang heard this, he hurriedly explained: "Just this morning, the emperor decided to crown you as the general of the captivity, this is what the lord said personally, there must be no mistake, this box of gifts was also handed over to me by the lord himself, so I must personally hand it over to the captive general Hua An, this is absolutely not wrong." ”

After Li Shang finished speaking, he patted his chest and looked like he was swearing.

Hua An was shocked when he heard this, Li Shang is a safe person, he will never say anything, and Director Wang, as a veteran of the Three Dynasties, will naturally not lie in public.

In this way, he was really named a general by Emperor Sima Yan, although he was a general with a low title, but he was a general, several levels older than Du Wei.

But even if he really became a general to curry favor, compared to Situ, it was still much smaller, and Director Wang, as an important minister of the court, did not seem to need to please one, and only a low-ranking general was right.

"How can Hua'an be able to win such love from Lord Situ." Hua An frowned and sighed.

Li Shang was middle-aged and had a lot of experience, so he could guess some, but there was no definite evidence, and it was not good to talk at will, so he had to say lightly: "Hua'an, you can rest!" I'm home. ”

Seeing that Li Shang was leaving, Hua An hurriedly said, "Brother Li, since you're here, let's have a meal and leave!" As he spoke, he pulled Li Shang's clothes with one hand.

"No, no, no, the lord is looking for me in a hurry, let me finish sending the brocade box, and rush back immediately, don't send it, don't send it." Li Shang broke free from Hua An's hand and hurriedly walked out.

"Brother Li, go slowly." Huaan said goodbye.

"Hehe, what's in the box, open it and take a look." Huagui suddenly appeared beside Hua An, looking at the brocade box curiously with open eyes.

"Brother Hua'an, open it and take a look." Han Xueyu also urged.

Hua An gently untied the rope outside the brocade box, opened the lid of the box, and suddenly, a dazzling light pierced Hua An's eyes, making Hua An feel slightly dizzy.

"Wow, it's so beautiful, Brother Hua'an, this is so beautiful." Han Xueyu was the first to exclaim.

"Hehe, this is from the master to An'er, hehe." Huagui smirked for a moment, then turned back to continue repairing his chair.

"An'er, who came just now." Needle Niang cooked the meal, walked out of the room, asked casually, and then saw the dazzling light.

"It's so beautiful, who sent it." The needle girl's eyes never left the gift in the brocade box.

"It was given to An'er by Lord Situ, and Brother Li Shang made a special trip just now." Hua An said, took the gift in the brocade box in his hand, and said with emotion: "The purple gold crown is really beautiful." ”

"What, it's a gift from Master Situ." The needle mother was shocked, and then said: "An'er, then you have to go to the house well, thank Master Situ, go quickly!" ”

When Hua An heard this, he felt that it made sense, Director Wang gave such a valuable gift, and he had to go to thank him no matter what, at least he had to know the reason for the gift.

So, he nodded and said softly: "Change your clothes first, put on this purple and gold crown, and then it's not too late to go." ”

"Yes, yes, go back to the house and change your clothes." The needle girl urged.

Hua An returned to the house, changed into a clean military uniform, and then put the purple gold crown on his head in front of the bronze mirror, and looked left and right, the effect was really good.

"See how." Hua An walked out of the house, looked at the three people in the courtyard, and asked softly.

"Wow, Brother Hua'an, so majestic." Han Xueyu praised first.

"Looks good, hehe!" Huagui also praised it.

The eyes of the needle girl kept looking at Hua An, nodding constantly, her eyes were red, and she seemed to be a little excited.

"Dad, mother, Xue'er, you wait at home, I'll go back." After Hua An finished speaking, he stepped on the war horse and ran out of the gate.

Although the location where Hua An lives is very close to Situ Mansion, and it doesn't take long to walk, Hua An feels that riding a horse is majestic, so he rides there.

"Shhhh......h

Hua An rode his horse for a while, and then arrived at the gate of Situ Mansion.

"Hua'an, you're here so soon, is the master waiting for you in the main hall?" When Li Shang saw Hua An coming, he hurriedly greeted, and after speaking, his eyes kept looking at the purple gold crown on Hua's forehead, and his eyes were full of envy.

"Oh, Lord Situ, you know I'm coming." Hua An frowned and said.

"Huh!" Li Shanghan laughed twice and urged: "Go quickly!" Waiting for you? ”

Hua An didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly strode towards the main hall of Situ Mansion.

At the entrance of the main hall, when the court was Situ Wang Dao, he was standing with his back to Hua'an.

"Hua'an, the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army, meet Lord Situ, thank you for the crown." Hua An clenched his fists and bowed to Wang Dao.

When Director Wang saw Hua An coming, he turned around slightly, looked Hua An up and down, and exclaimed: "Sure enough, a talent, wearing a purple and gold crown will make him even more heroic and martial, come, please come in." ”

"Lord Situ, please first." Hua'an hurriedly conceded.

"Haha! Good, good, good. Director Wang walked into the main hall with a smile, and Hua An followed.

Entering the main hall, Director Wang beckoned Hua'an to sit down, and then urged his subordinates to serve tea, so graceful that Hua'an was a little overwhelmed.

Hua An hurriedly got up and said politely: "Hua An is just a reckless martial artist, Lord Situ is so loving, he has tormented Hua An." ”

When Director Wang heard this, he smiled and said softly: "Hua'an, sit down, you have lived in my house for nearly ten years since you were a child, and in the old man's heart, you have always been treated as a relative, so there is no need to be formal." ”

"Master Xie Situ." Hua An hugged his fists and thanked him, and the sense of restraint on his body weakened a lot.

Director Wang waved his hand and said softly: "This morning, General Han said your merits, the emperor Longyan Dayue, the court decided to crown you as a general, but a few ministers objected, the emperor hesitated for a while, the old man saw that you had made a lot of meritorious contributions, and said a few good words for you, this title of the general of the captivity, you are seated, haha!" ”

After speaking, Director Wang stroked his beard and laughed happily.

Hua An was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Situ is so loving, how can Hua An repay him." ”

When Director Wang heard this, he smiled and said, "The old man should thank you!" You saved the little girl's life in Maoshan, and the old man has never thanked him, this time, the good words and the golden crown can be regarded as repaying you for saving the little girl's life, haha! ”

Such an understatement answer made Hua An feel moved, especially at the mention of Wang Ling, Hua An's heart throbbed.

"Miss has been kind to Hua'an since she was a child, and when she sees that Miss is in trouble, how can Hua'an stand by and watch." After Hua An finished speaking, he looked at Director Wang and asked softly, "Lord Situ, Miss has been doing lately." ”

Director Wang saw his concern for his daughter from Hua An's eyes, and suddenly, he felt a sense of relief in his heart, and then asked, "Hua An, do you love your little girl?" ”

When Hua An heard this, his heart was shocked, Director Wang asked this, it seemed that he wanted to marry his daughter to himself, such a beautiful thing, Hua An dreamed of it, but he was just a civilian child, would Director Wang really marry his daughter to himself.

"Hua'an is vulgar, I'm afraid that I will wronged Miss." Hua An humbled a sentence.

"If the old man insists on marrying the little girl to you, are you willing?" Director Wang asked more directly.

Hua An's head shook again, and he hurriedly got up and stared at Director Wang, frowning and said, "Lord Situ, this is true." ”

"Seriously." Director Wang smiled indifferently and nodded sincerely.

Hua An's head was a little confused for a while, he couldn't believe that this was true, and hurriedly pinched his thigh, and a sharp pain came, making him believe that this was not a dream, but a fact.

"Situ is so loving, Hua Anding will report later." Hua An got up and knelt down on one knee to salute Wang Dao.

"Why is it still called Situ, it should be called father-in-law." Director Wang was suddenly a little displeased.

Hua An's head was overjoyed, and he immediately changed his words: "Xiao Xu Hua'an, meet your father-in-law." ”

"Hahaha! Son-in-law, please get up quickly. Director Wang helped Hua'an up, smiled with a spring breeze on his face, and his complexion was much better than in the previous months.

"The old man is such a daughter, you must treat her well, and you can't let her be wronged." Director Wang put on his father-in-law's stand and warned Hua An.

Hua An immediately patted his chest and promised: "Father-in-law, rest assured, Hua An will definitely let 'Ling'er' suffer a little grievance." ”

"Haha! In this way, the old man was relieved. Wang Dao nodded, looked up at the sky, and said: "The twenty-eighth of this month is the auspicious day of the zodiac. ”

"Xiao Xu listens to his father-in-law's arrangement." Huaan hugged his fists.
