Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Yilan Palace

"Oh my God! What is that? Soon someone in the Weiyang Palace was the first to see the fire in the northwest direction, and when Huo Guang released the Kong Ming lantern, it was as he expected.

"Wow!" Emperor Wu of Han always paid attention to the night sky, and he discovered such an obvious scene as soon as possible. At this moment, he also stood up with irrepressible excitement, and his face showed a look of ecstasy that he had never seen before.

Because the light is red, and the moonlight is a soft white. When 1,700 Kong Ming lanterns float in the night sky, half of the sky is reflected in a fiery red, and with the Kong Ming lanterns floating over Chang'an, the entire Chang'an City seems to have returned to the day.

"A vision from heaven...... Visions from heaven...... This is God bless my big man...... This is the prosperity of the ages...... "I don't know which courtier, after a short period of distraction, actually stood up and bowed down to the reassuring floating Kong Ming lantern, and his mouth kept shouting, and even his whole body trembled.

"Dongfang Shuo, what's going on? Does anyone know what this is? Emperor Wu of Han was also extremely excited, although he had also imagined the effect of the vision created by Huo Guang in his mind countless times, but when he really saw this scene, Emperor Wu of Han almost thought that this was really an auspicious fortune from heaven.

Dongfang Shuo also fell into a trance, but when Emperor Wu of Han's words pulled him back to reality, he suddenly had a sense of déjà vu in his heart, which mainly came from Emperor Wu of Han's question. Dongfang Shuo still remembered that just more than ten days ago, there was a fire in the night sky of Chang'an, but that time it was only a little, far from reflecting the sky like now, and the first sentence that Emperor Wu of Han asked at that time was almost exactly the same as what he said just now, but it was later confirmed that the fire was just Huo Guang setting off a flying lamp.

Asking the same thing at this time, Dongfang Shuo first thought about whether this sky-high fire was also made by Huo Guang. And the strangeness of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty before, with the situation in front of him, Dongfang Shuo suddenly brightened up in a moment.

Because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's voice was particularly loud, all the ministers who had lost their minds were shocked by the voice of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and then everyone's eyes were focused on Dongfang Shuo, so everyone knew that Dongfang Shuo was famous for his erudition and knowledge, and they all looked at Dongfang Shuo expectantly, hoping that he could explain the scene in front of him.

Under the gaze of the ministers, I saw Dongfang Shuo's exaggerated movements bowing to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and then shouted loudly: "This is auspicious from the sky, which is in response to the scene of Chang'an Weiyang, indicating that my Han Dynasty will be eternal and immortal!" This is the blessing of all the people, the blessing of my great man! ”

Dongfang Shuo didn't say much, just four simple sentences, first determined that this was auspicious, and then named this vision to represent Chang'an Weiyang, referring to the Han Dynasty is forever bright and immortal. "Ya * Wen * Yan * Love * First * Hair"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very satisfied with Dongfang Shuo's performance, and this guy really went to the Tao, and this sentence was said to the heart of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. However, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty knew that he still needed to continue acting, and then said excitedly: "Where is the historian? Hurry up and write down the scene tonight, and tell the world tomorrow, I will forever record this matter in the annals of history! ”

"Obey the order!" Sima Tan happened to be here tonight, and to be honest, he was also a little stunned, and now he has no idea of his own, anyway, what Dongfang Shuo and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty say is what it is. And this kind of thinking is not only him, but almost everyone.

"Your Majesty, such a vision has never been seen in the ages, and the minister thinks that the world should be amnesty, and the whole world will celebrate!" Imperial Doctor Zhang Tang walked out, his words made Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty stunned, because Zhang Tang is known for his strict law enforcement, and he actually said such a thing as amnesty for the world, it is simply the sun hitting the west and coming out.

Huo Guang didn't know everything that happened in Weiyang Palace, he just waited until Kong Ming's lantern floated in the direction of Weiyang Palace, and then quickly ordered the whole army to get on the horse, and then under the leadership of Huo Guang, the early gate army rushed in the moonlight, and when the Kong Ming lantern in the night sky of Chang'an disappeared one after another, Huo Guang had already led people to the southeast direction of Chang'an City.

This time, the whole army lit torches, and as soon as he arrived in the southeast of Chang'an, Huo Guang immediately ordered the whole army to disperse and began to look for the wreckage of Kong Ming lanterns scattered outside the city. This is not Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's plan, but Huo Guang's own idea, more than 1,700 Kong Ming lanterns will definitely not be able to be completely collected, and some of them will even fall directly in Chang'an City, but Huo Guang thought that as long as a large number of these Kong Ming lanterns were destroyed, even if they were occasionally found in Chang'an City, because the number was too small, it would definitely not attract attention, but if a large number of Kong Ming lanterns appeared, maybe something would lead to something, Huo Guang could not do everything, he could only minimize the risk.

The entire search process lasted until dawn, and Huo Guang scattered thousands of gate troops in all directions, almost conducting a carpet search, and it was a search repeatedly. In the end, Huo Guang really collected the remains of more than 1,500 Kong Ming lanterns, which made Huo Guang breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, such a number had greatly exceeded Huo Guang's expectations.

Then, without further ado, Huo Guang directly found a place to burn all the wreckage. After doing these things, Huo Guang knew that he finally let all the periodist troops return to the camp, and then dismantled the temporary camp of Sanjueguan, and put these people in the periodgate barracks, and this thousand periods of the gate army was completely completed their mission.

After doing these things, Huo Guang returned to Chang'an non-stop, and the city gate happened to be opened at this time, but after returning to Chang'an, Huo Guang did not go back to the Hou Mansion to rest, but went straight to the county office, and when he arrived at the county office, he ordered the county officials to patrol the streets, and if they found anything suspicious, they were brought back to the county office, and the so-called suspicious items were naturally Kong Ming lanterns.

At this time, it was not the time when the flow of people in Chang'an City was the largest, so Huo Guang's initiative would also have a certain effect, but when Huo Guang was waiting for these officials to come back to report the results, a Weiyang palace attendant came to the Chang'an County Office.

"Your Majesty has a decree, Xuan Chang'an orders Huo Guang to see you!" The chamberlain came to summon Huo Guang, but this should also be there, Huo Guang knew that at this time, Emperor Wu of Han would definitely find himself to inquire about the situation last night.

So Huo Guang didn't wait for the report of the officer, so he hurriedly followed the chamberlain to Weiyang Palace. At this time, although Huo Guang didn't sleep all night, he was not tired at all, because when he saw Emperor Wu of Han at this time, he could also know how Emperor Wu of Han would deal with him.

The place where Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty summoned Huo Guang was still the Jinhua Palace, and the Kong Ming lantern that Huo Guang saw last time was still stored in the hall.

"Aiqing worked hard last night! You didn't disappoint me. Emperor Wu of Han expressed his gratitude to Huo Guang in the first sentence of his mouth, and Huo Guang could also feel that Emperor Wu of Han was really happy.

"It is the duty of the ministers to share the worries of His Majesty." Huo Guang is still so decent, he doesn't invite credit or complain.

"It seems that Aiqing hasn't slept all night, what are you busy with?" Emperor Wu of Han didn't directly talk about last night's vision, as if he was just concerned about Huo Guang and asked casually.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister searched the southeast of Chang'an last night, destroyed all the things that should not appear, and ordered the Chang'an County Ya to look for suspicious things in the city early this morning, and now it has completed the ten **, and the rest is no longer to worry about!" Huo Guang replied relatively implicitly, but the meaning was still very clear, that is, to tell Emperor Wu of Han that he had almost done the aftermath.

"Oh? Very good, Aiqing is at ease, a few days ago, Qing strictly implemented the money order, which has played a positive role in the implementation of the decree by the entire court, this is a great achievement, I don't know what kind of reward Aiqing wants? Emperor Wu of Han was obviously a little surprised, but he was really happy about the kind of accident, he didn't expect Huo Guang to be so clean and neat, and even thought about the follow-up things so thoughtfully. However, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty praised Huo Guang but did not directly say that he created a vision, but took the matter of liquidating the Sang Hongyang family with the army a few days ago.

Huo Guang hurriedly bowed down with great interest, and then said: "As the minister of the Han Dynasty, it is his duty to implement the decree of the Han Dynasty, and the minister does not dare to ask for credit!" ”

"Hehe, this reward and punishment can be clear in order for the world to return to the heart, and the courtiers use their lives. Meritorious service is not rewarded for the sake of no way, I don't want to be that unscrupulous king! Emperor Wu of Han said with a smile, and directly rose to the height of having no way, which made Huo Guang have nothing to say, but Emperor Wu of Han said it seriously, but he did not clearly say that he wanted to reward Huo Guang.

"If it's okay, stay and eat with me at noon!" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty suddenly changed the topic, and even asked Huo Guang to eat with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the palace, which can also be regarded as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's reward for Huo Guang. However, if this is the reward for Huo Guang's vision, it is too insignificant.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Huo Guang bowed again and accompanied Emperor Wu of Han to dinner in the palace, which was indeed a special honor, and it was not a treatment that ordinary officials could have.

"Today happens to be ready for the Yilan Palace, so you can go with me!" Emperor Wu of Han seemed to have finished his conversation with Huo Guang, but what Huo Guang didn't expect was that Emperor Wu of Han actually asked him to accompany him to the Yilan Hall for dinner.

If it's just an ordinary palace, it's nothing, and even if it is to go to Jiaofang Palace, Huo Guang doesn't feel strange. In the Weiyang Palace, the Jiaofang Hall is the residence of the queen, and the Yilan Palace is generally the residence of the lady, in the Western Han Dynasty, the lady is not a general title, but the status in the palace is second only to the queen's title, and outside the palace it refers to the wife of the marquis.

The Yilan Hall used to be the residence of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's biological mother, Mrs. Wang, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was also born here, and now the Yilan Hall is still the residence of Mrs. Wang, but this Mrs. Wang is not Wang Huan, but Mrs. Wang of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. This is a coincidence, and it can also be seen that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty favored Mrs. Wang.

And the problem lies with this Mrs. Wang, because he is Liu Hong's biological mother, that is, the prince who was forced to become the king by Huo Quai. This kind of arrangement is obviously to let the two enemies meet, Huo Guang really doesn't understand what Emperor Wu of Han means by this arrangement?
