In the next period of time, it was two months in the blink of an eye, and there were basically no major events in Chang'an during these two months, and Li Cai was still his prime minister. However, these two months have been very fruitful for Huo Guang, mainly because Lu Shu's papermaking workshop finally made paper suitable for writing a few days ago.

Now there is a pile of paper similar to the rice paper of later generations in front of Huo Guang, but the paper made by Lu Shu is not as white as the rice paper. Huo Guang has already experimented with a brush, and there is indeed no problem at all with writing.

Huo Guang spread out a piece of paper on the desk in front of him, and the pen and ink next to him were ready, speaking of which, in later generations, Huo Guang's calligraphy was not very good, but when he was studying in the past, the school Chinese teacher took a few brush classes and wrote a few times. And at that time, it was still written in simplified characters, which is very different from the current official script.

Fortunately, the concept of calligraphy had not yet been fully formed during this period, and Huo Guang did not have to worry about making a fool of himself. He picked up the brush and wrote on the paper in a similar way, not to mention the first time he wrote on paper back to the Western Han Dynasty, which gave Huo Guang a sense of civilization and progress. It's much easier than when you used to carve bamboo with a knife.

Huo Guang didn't know what he wrote on the paper, he didn't feel satisfied with the first time he wrote it down, and then crumpled the written one, then spread a piece of paper and continued to write, and Huo Guang wrote it twice It seems that the appearance is basically the same.

After writing five times, Huo Guang nodded with a little satisfaction, then put down the brush in his hand, picked up the written paper and blew a few breaths. After doing all this, Huo Guang did not stop, but picked up a small wooden box from his side, and when he opened the wooden box, it was also a folded piece of paper.

Huo Guang opened the paper, and there were pictures on it, and there were many small notes next to the pictures. It seems that the contents of this piece of paper have been written a few days ago. Huo Guang carefully checked the drawing, and then carefully put it into the wooden box, and then he folded the paper he had written and put it in his arms, and then picked up the wooden box and went out.

Huo Guang did not go out of the city this time, but came to a residence in Chang'an City, although it is not as good as Jiadi and Xuanpingli, but there are also some small officials with a bit of status, so the houses here are larger than ordinary houses.

Huo Guang inquired long before he came, the place in front of him was Dongfang Shuo's home, and Huo Guang's purpose was to find Dongfang Shuo. Originally, he could directly ask Dongfang Shuo to see him, but this time he actually asked Dongfang Shuo, so he came to visit in person.

"If you have money, go knock on the door!" Huo Guang stood outside the door and said to Zhen Youcai.

Zhen Youcai stepped forward and knocked on Dongfang Shuo's door, and soon a young woman's voice came from inside the door: "Who?" ”

Huo Guang said secretly in his heart when he heard this, this Dongfang Shuo is really as rumored to say.

"Chang'an ordered to visit Dr. Taizhong, and asked Mrs. to pass it on." Zhen Youcai replied outside the door.

"Oh, it turned out to be Lord Chang'anling. (Pingnan romance) please come in quickly, my husband said, if it is Chang'an Ling, you can come in directly. As soon as she heard that it was Huo Guang, the young woman inside the door looked extremely enthusiastic and quickly opened the door.

"Huo Guang has seen his sister-in-law!" Huo Guang stepped forward and saluted the young woman behind the door. Judging by this woman's dress, she should not be a subordinate, and in fact, Huo Guang also knows that Dongfang Shuo's family has an old mother who cooks, and there is no subordinate at all, this woman is good and young, and it is estimated that Dongfang Shuo's current concubine room.

"The concubine has seen the Chang'an Order. The master is coming out, Chang'an Linghuo is here! Dongfang Shuo's concubine returned the salute to Huo Guang, and hurriedly turned her head and shouted into the courtyard.

"Hehe, how come Ah Guang has time to come to my humble house? What a rare guest, Dongfang Shuo has lost his welcome, please forgive me! Then Dongfang Shuo's joking voice came from the room, and then he strode out, followed by a boy of seven or eight years old.

Huo Guang knew that Dongfang Shuo had only one son, and it was estimated that he should be the child in front of him. Sure enough, before Huo Guang could speak, Dongfang Shuo said first: "This is the dog Dongfang Xian, haven't you seen Master Huo soon?" ”

"Dongfang Xian pays a visit to Lord Huo." Dongfang Shuo's son hurriedly bowed to Huo Guang.

Huo Guang stretched out his hand to help Dongfang Xian, and said: "I am friends with your father, it would be too much to call an adult, if you don't think I take advantage, just call me uncle!" ”

Dongfang Xian glanced at his father, Dongfang Shuo glared at him back, and said on the side: "Silly boy, don't you call uncle soon?" ”

Dongfang Shuo naturally saw that Huo Guang was deliberately getting closer to him, you must know that with Huo Guang's identity, not anyone who wants to call him uncle is qualified to be called. Although it seems that Huo Guang is not much older than Dongfang Xian, in fact, Huo Guang still has a condescending posture.

"Hehe, I didn't bring anything with me when I met Xian'er for the first time, and I will order someone to send a gift tomorrow." Huo Guang didn't expect to meet Dongfang Xian at first, since people called him uncle, the meeting gift must be indispensable. But Huo Guang had nothing on his body except for an official seal and a tiger talisman, so he could only promise to make up for it tomorrow.

"Thank you, Uncle Huo." Dongfang Xian thanked him very sensibly, but Dongfang Shuo didn't say anything on the side. China has been in exchange for etiquette since ancient times, and Dongfang Shuo will naturally not be polite in such a place.

"You're welcome, I took the liberty to come here today to discuss something with Brother Man Qian, shouldn't it disturb Brother Man Qian?" Huo Guang came to Dongfang Shuo for business, so he led to the main topic.

"Don't bother, don't bother. Xian'er, you go play by yourself, Ah Guang please! Dongfang Shuo opened his son and introduced Huo Guang into the inner hall. In fact, he noticed the wooden box in Huo Guang's hand at the beginning, and he was also very curious about Huo Guang's intention.

After entering the inner hall, the two sat opposite each other, Huo Guang put the wooden box on the top of the desk, and then took out the paper full of words written by himself from his arms.

"Brother Man Qian, I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you to go into the palace to see Your Majesty." Huo Guang spread out the paper, pushed it in front of Dongfang and said.

Dongfang Shuo took the paper, and his gaze naturally fell on the words on it. However, when the paper was in his hands, Dongfang Shuo subconsciously lifted the paper with his hand, and his eyes showed a curious look. Then Dongfang Shuo quickly browsed the contents of the paper, and finally his eyes fell on the wooden box on the desk.

"Ah Guang, although you can win the favor of Your Majesty by doing this, and even benefit the entire society, isn't this tantamount to giving up a good foundation?" Dongfang Shuo asked Huo Guang in confusion. In fact, the content written by Huo Guang is a letter to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which means that he wants to dedicate papermaking, and in the wooden box is the process drawings after the improvement of Lu Shu.

"No, although I will dedicate all this paper-making process, but for a long time, Lu Shu's paper-making workshop will be the best, and the paper he makes will also be the best and best quality in the entire Han Dynasty. Even if His Majesty announced this papermaking technique to the world, merchants from all over the world rushed to enter, and its competitiveness was not as good as that of Lu Shu. Huo Guang said confidently, with Huo Guang's understanding of later generations, he knew that pure monopoly is not a good thing, but with healthy competition, it is easy to make an industry develop and grow, and what Huo Guang wants is not to completely monopolize the entire Dahan paper industry, he only needs to occupy the first position in this industry.

"Competitiveness? It's an interesting statement, and it's true when you think about it, even if there are countless papers in the world, as long as your paper is the best, that's enough. Dongfang Shuo is much better than ordinary people in this era, Huo Guang suddenly opened up in a few words, and the word competitiveness couldn't help but come out of Huo Guang's mouth.

"Then without further ado, I'll enter the palace, and you can go back to the house and wait for my good news!" Dongfang Shuo agreed immediately, and he also knew that it was a credit for him to convey it on his behalf, and besides, this was a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and Dongfang Shuo was happy to make this trip.

"Then there's Brother Lawmanqian." Huo Guang got up and left with Dongfang Shuo, one went to Weiyang Palace, and the other went back to the Champion Hou Mansion.

Although Huo Guang has the qualifications to enter the palace to see Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, if he is in the capacity of Chang'an Ling, according to the normal procedure, his submission needs to go through many processes. In order to save this time, Huo Guang directly thought of Dongfang Shuo, because Dongfang Shuo could meet Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at any time. Of course, Huo Guang can also let Huo Quzhi write on his behalf, but Huo Quzhi's status is high enough, these are not big benefits, and it is more useful to hand them over to Dongfang Shuo.

In Weiyang Palace, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was enjoying the service of a beauty in Li Meiren's bedroom, when Dongfang Shuo's voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "Minister Dongfang Shuo has something to ask to see Your Majesty." ”

It stands to reason that when the courtiers ask to see the emperor, they are all passed on by the inner servants, but Dongfang Shuo is an exception, although he is a courtier, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sometimes treats him as an internal servant, so over time, Dongfang Shuo sees that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty does not need to be passed on by the inner servants, he directly shouts in his voice.

"Hmph, what's wrong with this Dongfang Shuo today? It's a disappointment! Come on, blast Dongfang Shuo out, and let him play again tomorrow morning. "Emperor Wu of Han didn't want to see Dongfang Shuo at this time, his voice just now was already very disappointing. Fortunately, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in this period has not yet reached his old age, not moody, but let people blow away Dongfang Shuo but did not punish him, if it is ten years later, it is estimated that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will directly look at Dongfang Shuo's head.

"Your Majesty, wait!" The waiter outside the door was about to call Dongfang Shuo away, but suddenly heard Li Meiren's voice. Although these words were said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the chamberlain still stopped and did not immediately call Dongfang Shuo away.

"Your Majesty, Doctor Taizhong's request to see at this time must be an important matter, although the concubine is reluctant to leave His Majesty, but the concubine knows that His Majesty is the co-lord of the world, Your Majesty, please take the community as the priority!" Li Meiren said faintly, her voice was soft and pleasant, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was a little fluttery. Since this Li beauty entered the palace, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had a feeling of being unable to stop, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty always felt that there was a unique temptation in this new beauty, which had never been seen among so many women in the life of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. So in less than three months, the high-level officials of the Han Dynasty all knew that His Majesty now has a favorite Li Meiren.

"Hehe, the beauty is really my virtuous helper. The beauty is right, I will go to see Dongfang Shuo, but I promise you that I will come back as soon as I see Dongfang Shuo. Emperor Wu of Han was like a child who had been praised by adults, and immediately straightened his waist and said, as if he wanted to leave a tall impression in Li Mei's heart. In fact, if someone else came to see him at this time, Li Meiren would definitely not say a word, but Dongfang Shuo was different, because he had already taken refuge in Huo Guang.

"Your Majesty Shengming, the concubines are waiting for Your Majesty......" Li Meiren said with a smile on her face, but her voice became smaller and smaller, and finally she lowered her head shyly, and when it came to Your Majesty, the two words were simply faint.

Looking at Li Meiren's infinitely shy appearance, Emperor Wu of Han secretly said in his heart: "What a goblin." However, he shouted to the outside world: "Let Dongfang Shuo wait in the side hall, and I will go to see him immediately." ”
