Gao Buzhi led 3,000 cavalry to jump into the continuous mountains and Gobi, Huo Guang didn't care how he exterminated these horse bandits, if Gao Buzhi couldn't even solve these horse bandits, he wouldn't be worthy of the title of Yiguan Marquis.; Happy; Wen; + Huo Guang took the remaining 27,000 troops and began the mighty road of inspection.

This is not only for Huo Guang to thoroughly understand the land of Hexi, but also to declare his leadership to the people of the land of Hexi, and everything here will be decided by the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in the future!

When Huo Guang began to inspect the situation in Hexi, the Anyang Hou Mansion in Chang'an City was gloomy at the moment. On the lobby of the Hou Mansion, Li Yan sat on the main seat, and the golden bottle and Huo Tang stood left and right. In front of them, a vegetarian servant prostrated on the ground and said sadly: "The old lady and the old lady passed away three days ago.....

"What?" When Li Yan heard the bad news, she fell and sat on the chair.

"Madam, do you want to inform the Governor immediately?" Jin Chuan also looked shocked, although she had not seen Huo Zhongru and her mother, but Huo Guang was an extremely filial person, and Huo Guang should be notified as soon as possible at this time.

"Slow, the Metropolitan Governor has just arrived in Hexi, and he can't leave now, and His Majesty probably won't let the Metropolitan Governor come back easily." Huo Tang hurriedly stopped it.

In Huo Tang's view, Huo Guang's departure from Hexi at this time is equivalent to all the previous efforts being wasted. Even if the emperor agreed to Huo Guang to go home to keep filial piety, he didn't know what would happen to Hexi and the emperor for a long time.

"Prepare, I'm going to enter the palace to see the queen. If my husband is gone, I, the wife, will replace him! Suddenly, Li Yan stood up, and the grief on her face was forcibly concealed by her, and was replaced by a calm and calm face.

"I'll go with my sister-in-law." Huo Tang hurriedly ordered to go down, and went to support Li Yan again, and took the maid guards to Weiyang Palace.

The daughters of the princes and important ministers could not directly meet the emperor, and if Li Yan wanted to return to Pingyang to preside over the funeral affairs of Huo Zhongru and her mother, she had to go to the empress Wei Zifu.

The wife of the governor wanted to see the queen, so she was naturally invited into the Jiaofang Hall quickly. As soon as Li Yan saw Wei Zifu, she knelt on the ground and wept silently, explaining her intention. When he heard that the second elder of the Huo family had died, Wei Zifu also hurriedly spoke out to comfort Li Yan, and then left Li Yan to wait in the Jiaofang Palace, and Wei Zifu went to the emperor to discuss.

When Li Yan left Weiyang Palace again, he had already obtained the emperor's permission, and Emperor Wu of Han not only agreed to let them return to Pingyang, but also rewarded them with a large number of utensils, and also sent five hundred palace guards to accompany him for the first time.

Huo Tang looked at these forbidden troops who protected the frame of the Huo Mansion, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, was this Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's Longen to the Huo family, or was it a defense against Huo Guang?

Li Yan's golden bottle and Huo Tang both returned to Pingyang, and Huo Huan, as the eldest grandson of the Huo family, also returned to Pingyang this time.

The mourning hall of the second elder of the Huo family is naturally decorated with beautiful scenery, and the slightly well-known figures in Hedong County have personally attended, and now the Hedong Taishou is the Linfen County Order who once made great contributions to escorting Qingzhou, and he personally presided over the entire worship ceremony.

On the first night of the vigil, because Huo Guang was not there, Li Yan knelt in the mourning hall instead of Huo Guang and Huo Heng, but the others were not even qualified to guard the spirit.

"Hey, Auntie, your face doesn't seem to be very good, huh? Is it uncomfortable? In the middle of the night, Huo Yan suddenly saw Li Yan's body trembling slightly, and her face was a little pale, so she asked uneasily.

"Nothing! I guess I haven't rested for the past few days. Li Yan gently wiped the sweat on her forehead and said a little weakly.

"It's all like this, and you still say it's okay? I'll help my aunt sit next to me for a while. Huo Yan saw that something was wrong with Li Yan, so she got up and went to help her.

"This ..... It's not right! Li Yan was a little hesitant, if she didn't come to wake the spirit halfway, would there be any unfavorable gossip, which made her very worried.

"It's okay, isn't this still me? Besides, whoever dares to chew the root of his tongue will tear his mouth apart. Huo Yan said as if everything was mine. He has been forcibly asked by Huo Guang to exercise his martial arts body these days, and his body has become quite strong, coupled with Huo Wuhuo's unreserved training, even if he is not afraid of a strong adult in the last year.

"Then there is Lao Xian'er." Li Yan also felt that her body was about to be overwhelmed, so she nodded in agreement.

Huo Xiangui is the champion marquis, and he is the eldest grandson of Huo Zhongru, Huo Guang is not in the Huo family, he is qualified to arrange everything as the head of the family, even if he is the only one to guard the spirit, no one can say what is not!

"Huh? Auntie, why are your hands so cold? No, I'll have to find a doctor. When Huo Yan helped Li Yan up, he felt that her arm was cold and abnormal, so he said with a serious face.

"Someone, pass on the doctor." Huo Yan didn't care whether Li Yantong agreed or not, and shouted directly outside. As soon as he heard that he wanted a doctor, Huo Tang, who had been outside, hurriedly ran in and helped Li Yan by hand.

"Sister-in-law, are you alright? How so? Huo Tang also noticed Li Yan's abnormality, and hurriedly asked with concern.

"It shouldn't be fine, just take a break." Li Yan squeezed out a smile on her face and said.

Soon, a doctor hurried over and hurriedly checked Li Yan's pulse. After a long time, the doctor suddenly showed a smile on his face, and then bowed to Li Yan, and said: "Congratulations to Mrs., Mrs. Hexi, Mrs. Hexi, Mrs. is fine, but she is a little overworked, but Mrs. must not be so tired after she is pregnant, and she must pay attention to recuperation!" ”

"What do you say? Is my sister-in-law pregnant? How long does it take? Huo Tang's expression changed, and he grabbed the doctor and asked.

"Uh..... Judging from the pulse, it has been more than two months..... "The doctor didn't know why Huo Tang reacted so much, and when he heard that it had been more than two months, Huo Tang let go of the doctor and let out a sigh of relief.

"It's nothing to do with you, go down." Huo Tang waved his hand to ask the doctor to step down, and he didn't even want him to prescribe any medicine to protect the fetus.

"What's wrong with my sister?" Li Yan also found that Huo Tang's reaction was a little too big, so she asked puzzled.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will immediately ask Zhang Han to send someone to Pingyang, I don't worry about these people." Huo Tang held Li Yan's hand, half-squatted in front of Li Yan, and said with his eyes staring at her lower abdomen.

"This.... Not really, right? Huo Yan asked behind him in the same puzzlement, he also felt that Huo Tang's actions were a little too cautious.

"What if it's a boy?" Huo Tang didn't turn around, but just said casually.

Everyone didn't know that the reason why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty dared to arrange for Huo Guang to go to Hexi and gave him so much power, in addition to the fact that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty arranged a lot of backhands to balance Huo Guang, a more important reason was that Huo Guang did not have a son-in-law, which means that no matter how much Huo Guang made achievements, no one would inherit his inheritance. Li Yan can't get out of Chang'an City, and Huo Guang can't cross the river, which means that Huo Guang will never have a son-in-law. You don't see that the princes who have eliminated the country in this period abound, and it is difficult for the son-in-law to inherit Huo Guang's inheritance, even if Huo Guang finds someone to have a son, and after a hundred years, the generals under his command will not be at ease to assist the concubine.

This is something that no one could have thought of decades later, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought of it, and Huo Guang and Huo Tang also thought of it, so Huo Tang would have such a violent reaction to Li Yan's pregnancy.

When the Huo family in Pingyang was still handling the funeral of the second elder of the Huo family, no one noticed that a doctor in Pingyang County, when he was going to the toilet in his thatched house, fell into the thatched pit because it was dark, and he drowned like that.....

Then, not long after the doctor drowned the thatched house, the people close to him also went to bad luck one after another, or died mysteriously, or involved in a life lawsuit, and finally were sentenced to death. It's just that these people's things happened too accidentally, and no one connected them together.

"Aunt Tang's work is really leaky....." The carriage of the Huo family's family left Pingyang and returned to Chang'an, Huo Yan turned around and glanced at the county town of Pingyang that was gradually moving away behind him, and said a silent sentence in his heart. Until now, only the three of them who were present at the time knew that Li Yan was pregnant.

Huo Guang didn't know that after he left, so many things had happened at home thousands of miles away. Little did he know that in a few months his other child would come back into this world. At this moment, he had already brought more than 20,000 troops to Juyanze, the largest pasture that the Xiongnu Youxian King once had.

Juyanze has been completely controlled by the Han Dynasty, and the lakes within a radius of 100 miles and the surrounding grasslands for hundreds of miles are pregnant with a large number of fish, shrimp, cattle and sheep. There are Han people fishing here, there are also foreign people who belong to the Han to raise cattle and sheep, and in the place near Juyanze, a city has taken shape, and its population has reached as many as 7,000.

Huo Guang stood on a grassland plateau in Juyanze, looking at the sparkling Juyanze in the distance, looking at the busy fishing boats on Daze, as well as the leisurely cattle and sheep on the grassland, Huo Guang also showed a smile on his face.

Behind Huo Guang are Dongfang Shuo and Du Yannian, as well as a number of generals. This kind of picture of leisure and abundance makes the faces of these battle-hardened generals also show a rare lightness.

"This place is not only a big granary, but also a necessary place for the Xiongnu to go to the Western Regions, it is really a strategic place! We can't afford to lose ...... this place," Huo Guang turned to the subordinates behind him and said.

"Yi Jixuan listens to orders." Huo Guang suddenly took a step forward, and then said with a straight face.

"The governor of Pontus has ordered you to be the lieutenant of Juyan, and from now on you will lead 5,000 troops to guard this place. If the Xiongnu Youxian King wants to go south, his first choice is here, and the Xiongnu must pass through here to go to the Western Regions, and the northern gateway to Hexi will be handed over to you in the future! Huo Guang knew that once he controlled Ju Yanze, he would control the only way for the Xiongnu to go to the Western Regions, which was not only a granary, but also an excellent strategic location.

"The subordinates will not let the Huns step into Juyan for half a step." Yi Jixuan knelt down on one knee and solemnly accepted the burden.

Yi Jixuan was originally a general of the Huns, but he has been returning to the Han for many years, and even he has regarded himself as a Han in his heart, when he said that he would not let the Huns step into Juyan for half a step, it was so natural, and even the people around him did not have a sense of disobedience!
