Chapter 197 What is more terrifying than the battlefield is the court

Huo Guang led nine war horses and walked into Weiyang Palace alone. The fastest update When he came to the main hall of Weiyang Palace, some of the courtiers had already returned before Huo Guang. Everyone, including Emperor Wu of Han, looked at Huo Guang with a puzzled expression, not understanding why he was allowed to cross Chang'an, but he led nine horses to Emperor Wu of Han.

"General Chen Pingnan, Jing Zhaoyin, and Anyang Jun Huo Guang greet Your Majesty" Huo Guang did not enter the main hall of Weiyang Palace, but knelt down to Emperor Wu of Han in the main hall outside the steps of His Royal Highness.

He reported the names of his official titles in a row, and without waiting for Emperor Wu of Han to say anything, he knelt on the ground and continued: "The minister led the troops to the land of Nanyue in the early summer of the first year of the Yuan and Ding Dynasty, which lasted for a year, killing the rebels of Nanyue, except for the country of Nanyue, and placing nine counties in the southeast. Destroy the Dongyue Kingdom, kill Yu Shan, the king of Dongyue, and move his people to Jianghuai. The west was destroyed and Lan, and the county was expanded to 300 li. The minister is convenient for the front of the Weiyang Palace today, and presents the nine southeastern counties for His Majesty! ”

Huo Guang's voice was very loud, echoing in Weiyang Palace for a long time. The previous emperors and courtiers knew about it, but they didn't know what his last sentence meant. The same doubts linger in everyone's hearts, can the nine southeastern counties still be brought back to Chang'an?

"Please order your majesty to unfold the cloth!" Before Huo Guang could speak, he straightened up and shouted in front of him. After a year's experience in South Vietnam, Huo Guang has less of the elegant demeanor of a civil servant, but more of the ruggedness and uprightness of a military general.

Emperor Wu of Han nodded slightly, and Su Wen quickly trotted all the way behind Huo Guang, commanding the inner servants to unfold the cloth that the war horse had refuted outside the main hall.

When the first cloth was unfurled, a picture of sun, beach, waves, and coconut trees appeared. Where has such a realistic picture ever appeared? What's even more amazing is that none of the courtiers in Chang'an have ever seen this kind of scenery.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had stood up at some point, and then as the cloth was opened one after another, different scenes were displayed in front of Weiyang Palace. The unprecedented, unique scenery of the southern country was presented for the first time in Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty and in the eyes of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for the first time.

At this moment, there was no one else in the eyes of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and he didn't even look at Huo Guang, he couldn't help but take a step, and walked towards the huge paintings as if he had lost his soul.

"Nichinan? It turns out that this is my Nichinan-gun....... Pearl Cliff? There is such a beautiful place in the world, this is my Pearl Cliff County! Ullim-gun ....... Isn't this landscape so beautiful? It's a wonderland, right? Is there really such a beautiful place in the world? I'd love to check it out now! Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty completely forgot everything, and only had the scenery of the nine southeastern counties in his eyes, and he couldn't wait to let go of all government affairs and immediately hurry up to see the scenery of the nine southeastern counties that belonged to him.

"Good, good...... A good Weiyang palace in front of the nine counties in the southeast. General Pingnan, please get up! Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty flicked his sleeves, and the hearty laughter echoed in front of the Weiyang Palace, and then he personally stretched out his hand and said that Huo Guang helped him up in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces.

"Spread my will, build a square pavilion in Shanglin Garden, I want to put the scenery of the nine southeastern counties in the square pavilion, and pass the decree to each county to draw the geography of the scenery, and send it to Chang'an to be placed in the square pavilion." Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty picked up Huo Guang and stood outside the main hall of Weiyang Palace and said.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a suggestion. It is better to build the Sifang Pavilion in Chang'an City, and in the future, the envoys of various countries and the subjects of the Han Dynasty can have a glimpse of the territory of our Han Dynasty in the Sifang Pavilion! Huo Guang hurriedly suggested without losing any time.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was slightly stunned, there were any good things in the past, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty liked to put them in the Shanglin Garden. However, Huo Guang's suggestion really made his eyes shine, only he can watch it at any time in Shanglin Yuan, although he is rich in thousands of miles of territory, it is tantamount to a night walk in brocade, and he can't let the subjects of the world intuitively understand how big the Han is. Huo Guang's suggestion happened to have both face and promote the prestige of the Han.

"Okay, just according to General Pingnan." Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said happily, Huo Guang's suggestion can be said to be in line with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

As soon as the words fell, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty reached out and grabbed Huo Guang's wrist, and while pulling Huo Guang forward, he said: "When General Pingnan marched south, I once said that when the general returned triumphantly, I was drunk with the general. Today, you will either get drunk and go home! ”

The main hall of Weiyang Palace is already full of delicacies and wines, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty pulled Huo Guang directly to the top, and today Huo Guang's position is only half a zhang shorter than Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and even above the general Wei Qing.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty pulled Huo Guang forward, and from the beginning of entering the main hall, the officials on both sides of the hall bowed to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Huo Guang, some of them just saluted, while some people still said something like "Congratulations to General Pingnan on his triumphant return to the court".

Huo Guang couldn't tell whether these people were saluting Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty or to himself, but those flattering words fell on Huo Guang's ears, not only did not make him feel the slightest sense of complacency, but also gave rise to extreme disgust.

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sat down, Huo Guang and the courtiers also sat down one after another. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not raise a glass, and the courtiers were still waiting, and at this time, everyone's eyes fell on Huo Guang, and even many people had a hint of schadenfreude in their eyes. Because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not speak for a long time at this time, only Huo Guang was embarrassed, but if Huo Guang spoke first at this time, even if he raised a bottle to respect Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it would be regarded as disrespectful to himself.

"Hehe, today I can touch the light of General Nan, and get the reward of Your Majesty's wine, and the minister will use the wine in the bottle to pay tribute to Your Majesty first, and congratulate Your Majesty on gaining thousands of miles of territory again, opening an unprecedented prosperous era!" At the critical moment, Wei Qing finally stood up, he bowed to Emperor Wu of Han with a wine bottle, and then raised his head and drank it all.

Wei Qing's face Emperor Wu of Han still wanted to give it, and he also picked up the wine bottle and put it to his mouth and took a sip. Then an attendant stepped forward to continue pouring for Emperor Wu of Han and Wei Qing, but no one knew how much Emperor Wu of Han drank in one gulp.

"I also want to pay tribute to General Pingnan and the soldiers of the Great Han Southern Expedition. You are all heroes of my great Han, and I have decided to go to Shanglin Yuan tomorrow to reward the soldiers of the Southern Expedition. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty picked up the wine bottle and said to Huo Guang, and also announced the reward for the Lin Yuan tomorrow.

"The ministers of the Southern Expedition have thanked Your Majesty. His Majesty toasted, and the ministers were ashamed to dare not take it, and this battle was all thanks to His Majesty's wisdom and the contribution of the princes of the court. The people of the southeast deeply felt His Majesty's favor, and the ministers just preached His Majesty's kindness, and the people of the southeast changed their banners one after another to the Han Dynasty. Huo Guang didn't dare to take the slightest credit, the atmosphere in Chang'an today was too weird, and it could be said that he was being targeted everywhere.

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Huo Guang drank each other, the atmosphere in the Weiyang Palace became much more lively. Then the courtiers drank their own wines, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty chatted with Huo Guang without a word, all talking about some things on the battlefield, Huo Guang took the right amount of proportion, and only answered Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in a few words, but it gave people a feeling that the battle of the Southern Expedition was calm.

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, some courtiers stepped forward to toast Huo Guang. The courtiers toasted without reproach, most of them just said some ordinary compliments, Huo Guang also made a perfunctory sentence of etiquette, and then the two sides drank happily. But now the situation in the court has become strange, and even the attitude of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is unpredictable, so some people have ulterior motives.

"It is said that one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, and General Pingnan will slaughter millions of people in the first battle of the Southern Expedition, such a great achievement is really unprecedented! The lower officials respect General Pingnan, and I hope that the general will build an immortal career for the Han Dynasty again. "The person who came was a young man, who looked a little fresh, Huo Guang estimated that he should be a newcomer to the court in the middle of the year.

Huo Guang's massacre of the city in South Vietnam has been known to the whole world, but he has just returned from a great victory, and everyone is still secretive about it, and no one has mentioned it. But this person took the opportunity of toasting to propose that Huo Guang slaughter millions of people, and his impure heart was clearly revealed.

"Thank you!" Huo Guang didn't say much, just two words lightly, and then drank it all. Huo Guang knew in his heart that he would lose if he said too much today, and the best way was not to say anything.

Later, many courtiers came forward to toast, some of them also had bad intentions, and later some people just wanted to get Huo Guang drunk and watch him lose his temper after drinking.

"It's rare for the general to be happy, and the lower officials also respect the general. The general is free to do so, and the lower officials see that the general has drunk so much, I'm afraid he is also a little drunk, right? Du Zhou suddenly walked in front of a few people who were about to toast Huo Guang and said first.

Huo Guang looked at Du Zhou, staggered the wine bottle, and said in a daze: "I...... I still...... I'm not drunk yet. Again....... There is no ...... to drink three bottles with Zhongcheng No ....."

Huo Guang shook and picked up the wine bottle, and before he could put it to his mouth, the person staggered forward. Du Zhou's eyes were quick, but he stepped forward to support Huo Guang. Then he said awkwardly to the surroundings: "Hehe, General Pingnan looks really drunk!" ”

"I'm also a little drunk, let's send General Pingnan home!" Emperor Wu of Han stood up, patted his hand lightly on his forehead and said.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty left, and the banquet naturally ended. Huo Guang was unconscious and was supported by Du Zhou, and deliberately walked out of Weiyang Palace at the end.

"Is Jun Shang okay?" Seeing Huo Guang appear, Huo Tang hurriedly stepped forward to help Huo Guang. The outside of Weiyang Palace had already become empty, and only Huo Guang's twelve guards and Huo Tang were still waiting.

"I'm fine, thank you for being in the middle of the imperial history!" Huo Guang was supported by Huo Tang and whispered to Du Zhou.

"The gentleman is polite, and he will go back first before he gets off early." Du Zhou didn't say anything, and walked to his mansion on foot.

Huo Tang helped Huo Guang to the side of the carriage, but Huo Guang gently pushed Huo Tang away, then supported the carriage with one hand, and put the other hand directly into his mouth, buckled it on his throat a few times, and then Huo Guang vomited. Huo Tang hurriedly stretched out his hand and patted Huo Guang's back, and after a long time, Huo Guang didn't vomit again, took the silk handed by Huo Tang and wiped it.

"Get in the car and go home!" Huo Guang didn't say anything, just dropped a few words and entered the carriage.

Huo Tang also followed into the carriage, and the carriage slowly walked towards Xuanpingli.

"Looking at the appearance of the second brother, this banquet is not worry-free, right?" When Huo Guang entered Chang'an today, many people had already felt that something was unusual, and looking at Huo Guang's appearance when he came out, Huo Tang knew that this Chang'an City was now countless times more dangerous than the battlefield of the Southern Expedition.

Thinking of Huo Guang's appearance just now, how similar it was to the way he vomited outside Zhongsu City that day! She finally understood why Huo Guang said that day, "What is more terrifying than the battlefield is the court." ’

"This is just the beginning, and I don't know how many conspiracies and conspiracy are waiting for us in the future!" Huo Guang lowered his head and whispered, at this moment his tone was as usual, and there was no drunkenness in his eyes.
