In Xuanping, the lights were displayed in front of the Anyang Jun's Mansion, and the whole house was waiting for Huo Guang to return outside the gate. The news that Huo Guang led the horse from the imperial road into Weiyang Palace in the afternoon of the update has been known all over the city, and Li Yan, Zhuo Wenjun and others also know the news, but everything is as usual for the banquet in the Emperor's Weiyang Palace, although Zhuo Wenjun feels that things are a little strange, but he does not have too much speculation, after all, Huo Guang is coming back soon, and everything needs to wait for him to come back.

"Madam, the gentleman's frame has come in!" Huo Guang's frame was still at the entrance of Xuanping, and some servants rushed to the gate of the house to report the good news.

"I'm back, you're finally back!" Li Yan took Huo Chengjun's hand and looked at the alley with a happy face.

Soon the carriage arrived at the gate of Anyang Jun's Mansion, Huo Guang lifted the curtain and stepped off the carriage with Huo Tang's support. As soon as Huo Guang stood still, he saw the crowd in front of him bowing down and saluting him: "Welcome to the triumphant return of the king!" ”

"It's late at night, let's go home first." Huo Guang said in a light tone, as if he was afraid of disturbing the surrounding neighbors.

Huo Guang took a step, walked to the door of the mansion, and suddenly stopped when he was only three steps away from Li Yan, without crying with joy as he imagined, and without hugging each other enthusiastically. Only Huo Guang said lightly: "Madam, I'm back, I've worked hard for you this year!" ”

It was plain as if it was a polite remark, and Li Yan only showed a faint smile on her face, and then responded: "It's not hard, but my husband has lost weight and darkened....... Look at our daughters so old! ”

Huo Guang moved his gaze down and saw Huo Chengjun holding Li Yan's hand, Huo Chengjun is almost four years old now, wearing a light green skirt with two small braids coiled behind his head, looking at Huo Guang a little timidly.

"Cheng Jun is so old? Let's get daddy to hug ....... It's been a long time since I've hugged my good daughter......." Huo Guang looked at Huo Chengjun, with a look of guilt on his face, and then leaned down and stretched out his arm to hug Huo Chengjun.

"Don't go ...... yet," Li Yan took Huo Chengjun's hand and walked forward.

"Daddy..... Daddy......" Huo Chengjun's eyes were filled with tears, and he hesitated for a moment but threw himself into Huo Guang's arms.

"Okay, good ......" Huo Guang picked up Huo Chengjun, and didn't know what to say. He only felt that everything he encountered outside was nothing, even if the changes in the court today were temporarily left behind by him.

The night of Anyang Junfu was destined to be a sleepless night, Huo Guang accompanied a few women in the backyard, telling the bits and pieces of the battle of the Southern Expedition, and from time to time Huo Tang also added a few words on the side, of course, the two of them tacitly concealed those massacres and conspiracies. It seems that in their mouths, there are only the magnificent mountains and rivers and beautiful scenery of the southern country.

In the bedroom of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the lights and candles were still flickering, and the emperor did not go to bed because the banquet was over. Beside him is not only the eunuch Su Wen who is on his side, but also the recent new favorite Jiang Chong.

"Anyang-jun has returned home?" Emperor Wu of Han sat in front of the desk, still writing something in his hand, but asked Jiang Chong while writing.

"I'm home." Jiang Chong lowered his head and replied in a low voice.

"Tell me what you know." Emperor Wu of Han continued without raising his head.

Jiang Chong was slightly stunned, but quickly spoke: "Since Anyang Jun returned to Pingyang last year, he has strictly restrained the clansmen, and set up a clan school in Pingyang, no matter whether it is male or female, as long as the children of the Huo family need to go to the clan study. Later, Anyang Jun's southern expedition, Pingyang Huo Mansion and Chang'an's Junfu all lived in simple places, and the clansmen and slaves were also well-behaved. Mrs. An Yangjun was initially invited to visit some ministers' palaces, and since the beginning of the year, the door has been closed to welcome guests. An Yangjun's previous subordinates have not gone to visit this year. Jiang Chong said truthfully what he knew.

He still didn't know what Emperor Wu of Han's attitude was towards Huo Guang, and since Huo Guang returned from a great victory, he reported it impartially and truthfully. Although there have been rumors in the government and the opposition recently that Huo Guang has the intention of getting involved in the position of the third duke, and the attitude towards Huo Guang in the government and the opposition today is also quite weird, but what does this have to do with him in Jiang Chong's opinion?

"Oh, starting a clan school? Also let the women study...... This Huo Guang is somewhat interesting. Emperor Wu of Han suddenly stopped the pen in his hand and looked at Jiang Chong with some interest.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I heard that there are already hundreds of children of the Huo clan in Pingyang." Jiang Chong continued to reply.

"There are hundreds of disciples in the clan study? I only have two or three hundred students. Su Wen, tomorrow I will draft a will to expand Taixue and select the children of all princes to enter Taixue, and give each county Taishou a recommendation quota to expand the number to 1,000 people. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty suddenly opened his mouth and made a will, and after hearing that Huo Guang had set up a clan school, he expanded the number of Taixue to 1,000.

"No!" Su Wen bowed down.

"Are the edicts for tomorrow's reward ready?" Emperor Wu of Han continued to ask.

"It's all ready, but Your Majesty hasn't shown General Pingnan's reward yet." Su Wen bowed again and replied.

Emperor Wu of Han thought for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Leave the edict behind, and you can go down." The reward for Huo Guang will be written into the edict in person. ”

This night in Chang'an City is destined to be a sleepless night, not only the night market is open, but the mansions of various important ministers are also sleepless all night. First, these people have too many things to think about, and second, these people have to rush to Shanglin Yuan early in the morning, waiting for His Majesty the Emperor to reward the soldiers of the Southern Expedition.

Huo Guang didn't sleep all night, but he was the first to come out of Chang'an City, this time he only brought twelve guards, and it would be a little inappropriate for Huo Tang to follow him now.

"Greetings to the General." As soon as Huo Guang entered the temporary camp of the Southern Expeditionary Army, he saw tens of thousands of soldiers neatly lined up in front of him kneeling down on one knee. These soldiers lined up early one by one to wait, and they also stayed up all night for the emperor's personal reward.

"All the soldiers requested, cheer up and show Your Majesty and the princes of the Manchu Dynasty the momentum of our southern expeditionary army." Huo Guang was dressed in military uniform today, pressed the hilt of the sword with one hand, and strode towards the Dianjiangtai.

"No!" Tens of thousands of soldiers responded in unison, and the sound spread for miles. Then they got up in unison, and the sound of the armor crashing made the entire camp slaughtered!

Huo Guang took the generals outside the camp gate and waited for Emperor Wu of Han to arrive. One after another, some courtiers arrived at the barracks, and there were strict arrangements for the positions of these courtiers, so naturally there were sergeants who were strict about the identity of the comers, and then brought them to the designated place.

"It's worthy of the army brought out by Butcher Huo, look at the murderous aura in this army, these soldiers stand still, they all give people a sense of slaughter." Some generals walked into the barracks, felt the atmosphere in the barracks, and all nodded their heads in praise.

"Hmph, it's just a butcher who kills like hemp, I'm afraid these soldiers only have military orders in their eyes!" A civil servant whispered.

"Brother Chen is cautious! General Pingnan has a great victory, and he is going to win the position of the third prince. Another person next to him followed. The two of them responded to each other, seemingly casual words, but they were heart-wrenching.

When the ministers of the court and the central government were almost here, the imperial car of Emperor Wu of Han was not far from the military camp. Huo Guang, who got the news, hurriedly led his generals forward to greet him.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's carriage stopped outside the camp, and Huo Guang took the lead in leading the generals to bow down on one knee, shouting in his mouth: "Welcome Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”

As Huo Guang and other generals of the Southern Expedition knelt down, the soldiers in the military camp and the ministers of the court and the central government also knelt down and shouted long live. Then I saw Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty slowly get off the frame, stood in front of Huo Guang and said majestically: "You love Qing and are flat, and all the soldiers are exempt." ”

Emperor Wu of Han's voice fell, and everyone got up. Then Huo Guang took the generals to make way for him, and then hugged Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and walked to the Dianjiangtai. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty walked slowly with the generals of the Southern Expedition, and at this time, no one said anything, but they were all curious about what Huo Guang's reward was?

According to the past practice, the reward for such a general who returned with a great victory can generally be finalized a few days in advance, and even the government and the opposition have already known about it in private. However, this time, the rewards for other Southern Expedition soldiers have come out, but there is no news about Huo Guang's rewards.

Emperor Wu of Han stood in the center of the stage, slightly higher than the others. Then Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty looked at the generals and tens of thousands of soldiers of the Southern Expedition, and motioned to Su Wen beside him to start reading out the reward.

Su Wen took a step forward and unfolded the holy decree in his hand. He already knew the content of the previous reward, but he didn't know about Huo Guang's reward at the end, but at this time, he still held back the strong curiosity in his heart and didn't look at the content behind at this time. Instead, it was read in a loud, high-pitched voice.

"General Fu Bo and Fu Li Hou Lu Bode have made meritorious contributions to the expedition to South Vietnam. There are 2,500 households in the special overflow food estate, a pair of jade bibs, and 1,000 taels of gold. "The first to be awarded was Lu Bode, he can be said to be the number two person in the Southern Expeditionary Army, and it is reasonable that he was the first to be sealed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lubode stepped forward and knelt down on one knee. He was originally a marquis because of the battle of Mobei, but now he has returned from Huo Guangnan's expedition, and he has sealed 2,500 households, and the fiefdom has reached more than 3,000 households.

"The general of the building boat, Yang Fu, the general Liang Hou, and the eight hundred households of the food town." Su Wen continued to read, but because Yang Servant's Lou Boat Army had not yet returned, and Yang Servant was still on the way, Su Wen continued to read a reward.

"In the history of Jingzhao Yin, the official was brave in battle, and the battle of the Southern Expedition beheaded more than ten enemy generals, sealed from Anhou, and ate 300 households." The third person to be awarded was not a few other generals with titles, but Shangguan Ji, who followed Huo Guangnan's expedition as the chief historian of Jingzhao Yin.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shangguan Jian also came out of the crowd and knelt down on one knee in front of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. His title from the Marquis of An is similar to that of Zhao Ponu's Marquis of Cong, and it can be seen from the title alone that he is Huo Guang's person.

"Guiyi Hou Zheng Yan and Tian Jia each overflowed with 500 households." The next reward was the reward for the original South Vietnamese generals Zheng Yan and Tian Jia. They are the Marquis of Guiyi, and they do not have independent titles and fiefs, but only increase their food estates. And these two people were still left by Huo Guang in the nine southeastern counties to guard, and did not follow Huo Guang back to Chang'an.

"Feng He is the Marquis of Fuyi, and there are 300 households in the city. Huiji Taishou Zhu Maichen was transferred to Chang'an as the lord and lieutenant. Other meritorious soldiers are rewarded. "The last ones to be sealed were He Yi and Zhu Maichen, and these two people have not yet arrived in Chang'an. He Yi was originally an official subordinate to the Great Order, and this time he was also made a marquis because of his meritorious service in the battle against Helan. Zhu Maichen did not have a marquis, but he was originally a taishou, but now he has become the lord and the captain, and he has become one of the nine kings.

When everyone is done, everyone knows that the real event is coming. Huo Guang's reward will be revealed immediately.

In the expectation of everyone, Su Wen took a slight breath, and then continued to read: "General Pingnan, Jing Zhaoyin, Anyang Jun Huo Guang." Conquer South Vietnam in the south, place nine counties in the southeast, and destroy the East Yue Kingdom and the Lan Kingdom. Tejin was named the general of Sima Pingnan, and he was the same as the third duke. Sealed Anyang Hou, overflowing 5,000 households. ”
