Chapter 151 The bad news of Huo Quai's illness
On the gallop road leading from Chang'an to Ganquan Palace, several carriages galloped towards Ganquan Palace under the escort of hundreds of horsemen, and among these carriages were the most powerful ministers of the Han Dynasty today. In the carriage headed by "Ya * Wen * Yan * Qing * Shou * Fa" sat Wei Qing, followed by Zhuang Qingzhai and Zhang Tang. However, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty originally summoned four people, including Huo Quai, but for some reason, Huo Qubing did not come.
Several carriages galloped and soon stopped at the designated place in the Ganquan Palace, and the three of them headed towards the place where Emperor Wu of Han was. Before that, Su Wen, who was in charge of summoning, had already returned to Emperor Wu of Han first.
"Your Majesty, the hussar general is too ill to come. The general, the prime minister, and the imperial historian have arrived. Su Wen reported the situation of the edict to Emperor Wu of Han first, and this kind of thing could not wait until Emperor Wu of Han could not see the person he wanted to see before he could tell the reason.
"Oh? The hussar general is young and healthy, how could he suddenly fall ill? What's going on?" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty showed a hint of worry, he knew that Huo Quzhi's physical fitness was very good, and he would not even summon himself for minor illnesses, and the so-called illness was definitely not light.
"I heard from the head of the Champion Hou Mansion that it was a headache, the hussar general was already a little unwell a few days ago, and the headache has been even worse in the past few days." Su Wen hurriedly said, he also knew a little about Huo Quzhi's condition.
"Spread my will, send two imperial doctors to see the hussar general." Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty still attached great importance to Huo Quai, and hurriedly issued an order. In the Qin Dynasty, there was already the official position of the imperial physician, and the royal family of the Han Dynasty naturally had a team of imperial physicians.
"No!" Su Wen took the opportunity to retreat. He estimated that Wei Qing and the others had also gone outside at this time, and it was the right time to leave.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty cleaned up his mood, Huo Quai's sudden illness, although it was a little surprising to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but he only regarded this as an ordinary physical illness, and then focused his energy on the summoning of these important ministers this time.
The content of the discussion between Emperor Wu of Han and Wei Qing was confidential, and no one else was present except for a few people involved. Therefore, no one knows what the specific monarchs and ministers discussed.
On the Hanoi side, because of the departure of the Bai brothers, Huo Guang unexpectedly quelled the Hanoi Rebellion. At the same time, Yixian, which had also been besieged for two months, was also taken over by Li Ling, who originally intended to surrender as early as a month ago, but at that time Huo Guang ordered not to accept surrender, so he delayed until the overall situation was decided.
In two months of operation, Huo Guang also completely controlled Hanoi, and all the officials were replaced by Huo Guang's people. At this time, Huo Guang finally delivered the news of Hanoi's complete pacification to Chang'an. With this news reaching Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty one day, there was naturally Huo Guang's suggestions on the disposal of the tens of thousands of soldiers, as well as the implementation of Dongfang Shuo and Li Ling's duties.
Although Hanoi was decided, Emperor Wu of Han did not speak. Huo Guang can't return to the dynasty yet. However, he also did not want to return to Chang'an immediately, just waiting for further instructions from Emperor Wu of Han. Huo Guangren has already appeared in Anyang County, which is where Huo Guang's fief is located.
"Lu Shu, do you think it is feasible to build a large-scale papermaking workshop in Anyang?" At this moment, outside Anyang City, Huo Guang was already standing in front of Lu Shu, who was taking care of his business. After the chaos in Hanoi was calmed down, LĂź Shu was summoned to Hanoi by Huo Guang.
Now Huo Guang's paper sales are very hot, and the workshop in Chang'an is a little insufficient. Huo Guang's plan is to build another workshop in Hanoi, so that the paper produced by the Hanoi workshop can be sold to the eastern region of the Han Dynasty, and in the future, workshops can be built in places such as Shuzhong and Longyou to expand the industry.
"This is the king's fiefdom, which is naturally suitable for building workshops. As long as you say a word, your subordinates will start doing it immediately! "Lu Shu naturally knows that this is Huo Guang's fiefdom, and he buys an industry in his own fiefdom, which is one thing that almost every liege has to do, plus Anyang is rich in bamboo, so it is very suitable to build a papermaking workshop here.
"Well, you can stay here for this time. Take care of the things here first, and as for the manpower, you can arrange it yourself, as long as you are faithful and reliable. Huo Guang nodded and said. Anyang will build a paper workshop again, and there must be responsible people here. Huo Guang didn't plan to meddle in these things anymore, just leave it to Lu Shu to take care of.
Speaking of which, this Lu Shu really reassured Huo Guang, it was only less than half a year, and Lu Shu told Huo Guang that the income of the Chang'an Paper Workshop alone had earned nearly 10,000 gold for Huo Guang, and recently Lu Shu had begun to prepare to open up the trade in the Western Regions, and several projects were in Lu Shu's plan, Huo Guang just listened to this, and let Lu Shu make up his own mind.
"The subordinates understand, but there is one thing that the subordinates still need to ask the king. When their subordinates came to Hanoi County, the three brothers of Yichun Hou sent people to find their subordinates, and they hoped to obtain the agency rights of our paper counties. Lu Shu said respectfully, it was about the three Wei brothers, and he didn't dare to make up his mind privately.
"Oh? Exclusive agency...... The three cousins are really powerful, and they have seen business opportunities for so long. Give them the counties they want. Huo Guang was also a little surprised, the so-called agency should not belong to this era, but the three Wei brothers were able to see such a business opportunity from their own paper sales, and they were also shrewd. Huo Guang did not refuse this, anyway, everyone made money, but it was just a business in a few counties, and he Huo Guang still made a lot of money, and the relationship between the two families of Wei and Huo could not be refused no matter what.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty's envoy has arrived, and he is already waiting at the Yamen!" Suddenly, a small official galloped towards him, and the others shouted loudly before they could get off their horses.
"Then let's go back first!" In the past few days, Huo Guang waited for a reply from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and immediately returned to Anyang County, surrounded by a retinue. Now Huo Guang is accompanied by dozens of people at any time, and his every move is watched by countless eyes, as if he has the taste of some generation of powerful ministers.
The taste of power can make every man crazy, and Huo Guang is no exception, so he also enjoys the feeling of hugging back and forth now, but Huo Guang also knows that he can't get carried away, and he strictly follows the rules in every word and deed, as well as the honor guard, and has never had any performance of transgression.
The official sent by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the Yazhong of Anyang County should only be the Lang official of the Shaofu. This person was also polite to Huo Guang, and respectfully handed over the edict of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to Huo Guang and was arranged to rest. This edict was given to Huo Guang by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty alone, so naturally there was no need to read it out in public.
After retreating, Huo Guang opened the edict, looking at the content of the edict, the smile on Huo Guang's face became more and more obvious. This time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty not only agreed to several requests from Huo Guang, but really made Dongfang Shuo officially become the Taishou of Hanoi County, and Li Ling became the Governor of Hanoi County, but also agreed to get tens of thousands of prisoners to go to Xiushan County. And in the end, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also allowed Huo Guang to draw manpower from this prisoner to build an Anyang Monarch's Mansion for him in Anyang.
The construction of a mansion in Anyang was only mentioned by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at the end of the edict. It can be said that this is just a small reward, and the real reward is still after Huo Guang returns to Chang'an. As for Huo Guang's suitability to return to Chang'an, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not say it clearly, but only said that after letting Huo Guang deal with the affairs of Hanoi County, he could lead his troops back.
In the afternoon of the same day, Huo Guang announced several good news. The biggest beneficiaries in this are naturally Dongfang Shuo and Li Ling, Dongfang Shuo is better, originally a courtier of Qianshi, plus he is a close minister of the emperor, so it is reasonable to be a county guard. And Li Ling was originally just a county lieutenant of 400 stones, but he was directly promoted to a county lieutenant of more than 2,000 stones. It can be described as soaring.
In the eyes of outsiders, this is naturally Huo Guang's ability, but Huo Guang knows it. Li Ling was able to become the governor of Hanoi so smoothly. In fact, his factor should only be half, and the other half is because of Li Ling's family. Originally, the Li Ling family was also prominent, and the two of them also added a prime minister, but the deaths of Li Guang, Li Cai, Li Kang, and the three were more or less wronged, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was probably also reciting the old skills of the Li family, so that Li Ling jumped up.
Fifteen-year-old two-thousand-stone official, Li Ling can be said to be the youngest and the highest official in the Han Dynasty so far. Regardless of the title, he even walked in front of Huo Guang.
This afternoon, Huo Guang returned to Huai County from Anyang, after all, this is the county government. Today, the Gate Army is still stationed in Huai County. That night, Huo Guang and the officials of Huai County also had a celebration, one was to celebrate the chaos in Hanoi County, and the other was to celebrate the ascension of Dongfang Shuo and Li Ling, of course, everyone here here will be rewarded more or less, and the credit will definitely be there.
"In the future, Hanoi County will rely on the two, and if there is any difficulty, let people come to Chang'an to find Benjun!" Huo Guang sat in his seat and accepted the joint toast of Dongfang Shuo and Li Ling. He didn't stand up either, but sat down and said.
Now that Huo Guang does have the qualifications to trust the university, it can be said that Dongfang Shuo and Li Ling can have today, and everything is given by Huo Guang. Calmly accepted the toast of the two. Even if you don't get up, it's not rude, and Huo Guang said such a thing, which made the two of them feel even more confident in the future.
The so-called people in the court are easy to do, and now Huo Guang has built Hanoi County like an iron bucket, plus Huo Guang, a figure like Huo Guang in the court, as a backer, the official road of the two of them in this life will not stop here!
"Your Majesty, Zhen Youcai is here, looking at his face, it seems that things are not good!" Just when the atmosphere was warm and Huo Guang was slightly drunk, Lao Qi suddenly ran to Huo Guang and whispered.
"What? Got rich? How did he come? Take me to him! Huo Guang was shocked, Zhen Youcai did not come to Hanoi County with him, that is, Huo Guang hoped that Zhen Youcai could take care of the Chang'an Mansion for him. And for Zhen Youcai to come to Hanoi in person, something big must have happened, otherwise it would never be him who went out in person.
Huo Guang ignored everyone's gaze and walked directly into the side hall. At this time, Zhen Youcai was also anxious, and he looked haggard, it seemed that he was really non-stop all the way from Chang'an, and he never rested for a moment.
"What's wrong with the wealth?" Huo Guang saw Zhen Youcai's appearance, and he knew something was wrong in his heart, and hurriedly asked anxiously.
"Your Majesty, Master Hou is seriously ill. It was Hou Ye who asked me to inform Jun Shang and ask Jun Shang to return to Chang'an immediately, Hou Ye said......" Zhen Youcai said with a heavy face, but when he said the back, he was also choked up and a little speechless.
"What did my brother say? Say it. Huo Guang was anxious, at first he heard that it was Zhen Youcai, he thought that something had happened to Li Yan's mother and son, but when he heard it, it turned out that Huo Qu was seriously ill, and what did Huo Qu mean at this time, Huo Guang couldn't be clearer.
