Huo Guang has been leisurely recuperating from his injuries in the Champion Hou Mansion these days, and Li Yan has often come to see Huo Guang not long after dealing with Sima Xiangru's aftermath, but there is also one thing that surprised Huo Guang, that is, when Li Yan came a few days ago, he brought another person.

Dongfang Shuo's intention is very simple, he came to thank Huo Guang as Sima Xiangru's friend. Huo Guang also admired Dongfang Shuo because of his evaluation of Dongfang Shuo in later generations, so the two talked very harmoniously, and soon the two became acquainted.

"Mr. Dongfang has studied through the past and the present, Huo Guang really admires it, my brother has offended Mr. before, I apologize to Mr. on behalf of my brother." Huo Guang knew that the relationship between Dongfang Shuo and Huo Qubing was very bad, and even not long ago, Dongfang Shuo wrote an article "Answering the Hussar Difficulty" to respond to Huo Quai. Although Huo Quzhi didn't talk about Dongfang Shuo at all, since he had this opportunity, Huo Guang naturally hoped to resolve this contradiction.

The cause of this incident was that after returning from the Battle of Mobei, because Huo Qubing had always looked down on Wenchen like Dongfang Shuo Sima Xiangru, so he once said that these people were useless during the banquet. And that time Dongfang Shuo happened to be present, so he wrote the "Answer to the Hussar Difficulty" on the spot.

The gist of the article is to the effect that if a famous sword like the cadre Mo Xie is used to mend shoes, it is not as good as an iron cone worth only one penny. Peerless BMWs like Qi Ji and Yu Hong, if they are kept in the deep palace to catch mice, they are not even as good as a lame cat. I have to say that Dongfang Shuo is indeed very intelligent, and such insight is enough to make people look sideways even if it is placed in later generations, and Huo Quzhi was also speechless by his words at that time. Of course, after all, the identities of the two are there, and they will not make a big fight, and the matter will be over.

"Lord Huo is serious, I'm just playing tricks, if you want to say that your real skills are naturally not as good as the hussar generals. It's my temperament, and I've offended a lot of people for decades! Dongfang Shuo is not a completely self-righteous person, and he is also humble at this time.

"This is the rest of the money, and it will be returned to Master Huo now." Dongfang Shuo took out a money bag and handed it to Huo Guang, it should be the money left over from Sima Xiangru's affairs.

Huo Guang didn't expect Dongfang Shuo to return the rest of the money to himself, so it seems that this person is not a person who is greedy for a small bargain. Although it is recorded in the history books that Dongfang Shuo also attaches great importance to money, in the final analysis, he is still a disciplined person, at least a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way.

"Sir has worked hard this time, so I will give this money to Mr. to buy some wine to drink. Uncle Sima treated me well, I couldn't send him personally, all thanks to Mr. Lao's hard work, Huo Guang felt that it was too late, how could he take these back? Huo Guang really didn't care about the money, and as he said, he had already gotten the greatest benefit from Sima Xiangru, but it was his appearance that made Dongfang Shuo pounce. Ya * Wen * Yan * Love * First * Fa

"Hehe, since that's the case, then I'll take it. You know, I'm just a good person! Dongfang Shuo said with an expression that you know is a man. As soon as he thought about it, he understood that Huo Guang had indeed gotten the greatest benefits, Huo Guang didn't care about the money, but he himself could improve his life.

Dongfang Shuo's lifestyle is also somewhat famous in Chang'an City, Li Yan didn't know about it before, but now she has heard that Dongfang Shuo has to marry a young and beautiful woman every year, and then abandon it. So Li Yan glared at Huo Guang out of a woman's instinct.

This made Dongfang Shuo a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly said goodbye. However, since then, Huo Guang and Dongfang Shuo have some friendship, and Dongfang Shuo has also become the first official of Wei Huo's relatives that Huo Guang met in Chang'an.

Time came to the last day of June of the fifth year of Yuanjia in a blink of an eye, and twenty-one days had passed since Huo Guang was assassinated. That night, Huo Guang knocked on the door of Huo Quai's room with the "Feng Zen Book", and after half an hour, Huo Guang walked out of Huo Quai's study with a relaxed face.

On the first day of the seventh month of the fifth year of the Great Han Dynasty, on this day, officials with more than 600 stones who had real positions in Chang'an gathered at the north gate of Weiyang Palace before dawn. According to the rules of the Han Dynasty, the first day of the first month of each year is a large court meeting once a year, but there is also a large-scale court meeting on the first day of the new month of each month. Although the court meeting on the first day of each month is not as good as the big court meeting, tens of thousands of people attend at one time, and even the envoys of various countries have to be present, but on the first day of each month, nearly 1,000 people also participate in this court meeting, and many major national policies of the Han Dynasty are announced at this time.

Although Huo Guang is also an official of Qianshi, he is not in the court because he only has an official and no real position. However, he also got up early today, because today is the day when Huo Qubing launched a sparse attack and asked Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to crown the three princes as kings, and he was also quietly waiting for the results in the mansion.

Huo Guang didn't know that because of his arrival, this major historical event had actually been a year earlier than the original. In the original history, the three sons were crowned kings in the sixth year of Yuanzhen.

The first rays of sunlight in July shone into the main hall of Weiyang Palace. In a burst of bells and chimes, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty walked into the main hall of Weiyang Palace wearing a crown and crown. And all the courtiers knelt in the hall, these courtiers did not get up, they just bowed to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. This is very different from the Shanhu Long Live in the Ming and Qing dynasties in the later generations, but is closer to the etiquette of monarchs and ministers in the Warring States period.

"Today's court meeting can be played, who will say it first?" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said in a majestic and loud voice, although there will be nearly a thousand people in this court, but the hall is very quiet, coupled with the echo effect of the main hall, everyone can clearly hear the voice of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Under normal circumstances, if Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has anything to discuss, he will take the initiative to put it forward, and what he said today is that everything can be played, which means that he has nothing to do, and it depends on whether the courtiers have anything to do.

During this period, the court meeting did not stipulate any order of speech, but because of the difference in official ranks, it was also a practice to start with the higher one. And the highest status in the court is none other than Wei Qing and Huo Quai, because both of them were added to the title of Grand Sima not long ago, and there was originally a prime minister with the same status as them, but now even the prime minister is not as good as these two.

"Your Majesty, Chen Huo is going to be sick and has something to do." Huo Quai's kneeling body was slightly the first to say.

"What's the matter with the hussar general?" Emperor Wu of Han responded. Above the imperial court, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty generally preferred to address courtiers and officials. For example, when he called Wei Qing, he was not the Marquis of Changping, but used to call him a general.

Huo Quzhi took out a bamboo slip from his arms, and then raised his head and said: "Brother Huo Guang has a book from a different person, this is a heaven-given thing, only His Majesty can get it in the world, and the younger brother does not dare to hide it, today I am dedicated to Your Majesty, may Your Majesty cover the three emperors, and the five emperors will be better than the five emperors!" ”

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's gaze fell on the book held high by Huo Quzhi, and the corners of his mouth under the cover of the crown showed a knowing smile. Then he said, "Come on, bring it up." ”

Then naturally there was an attendant who presented the book to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and no one noticed that when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty picked up the book, his hands trembled slightly, as if he had obtained a coveted treasure. Although he hadn't read the contents of the book yet, Emperor Wu of Han had already guessed that this was what he wanted.

It has been nearly thirty years since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne, and at this time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had already established a feat comparable to the founding of the country. Until now, what he wants to do most is to seal Mount Tai, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's character of great joy has also been cultivated from this time.

"Good, good, good ......" Emperor Wu of Han opened the book and glanced at a few paragraphs, and couldn't help but say three good words in a row. Then he took the book in a volume and said to the attendant beside him: "Put this book in Shiqu Pavilion and order Lantai to survey and proofread." ”

Shiqu Pavilion is the place where scholars of the Western Han Dynasty exchanged scholars, and Lantai is the central archive of the Western Han Dynasty, which is equivalent to the Hanlin Academy of later generations.

"Your Majesty, the minister still has something to do." Huo Qu struck while the iron was hot, and when Emperor Wu of Han was still happy, he continued.

"Hussar General, please." Because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was in a good mood, he was polite to Huo Qubing at the court meeting.

Huo Quzhi knelt more straight this time, and he paused slightly before he said aloud: "Your Majesty has three princes, Huang Zihong, Huang Zidan and Huang Zixu are old, and your Majesty asks Your Majesty to canonize the three princes as princes and kings, so as to fulfill the responsibility of the royal descendants to protect the land and the country!" ”

Emperor Wu of Han was slightly stunned, and the joy just now was suddenly dispelled a lot. What Huo Quzhi said was really a big deal, so big that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had to seriously consider weighing it, although it was a matter of time before Fengzi became a country, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty really hadn't considered this issue at present.

"The minister also asks Your Majesty to crown the three princes as kings!" Before Emperor Wu of Han could speak, Zhao Ponu, who was sitting in the middle of the main hall, also bowed and said.

As soon as Zhao Ponu's words fell, Gao Buzhi, who was not far from him, also shouted at the top of his voice: "Your Majesty please make the prince king." ”

"Your Majesty, please crown the three princes as kings." In the main hall, as if it had been discussed, the same voice sounded one after another. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty swept his gaze across the hall, and nearly half of the courtiers bowed down, which means that half of the courtiers wanted to crown their three sons as kings.

How did Emperor Wu of Han not know that this was obviously launched by Huo Qubing in order to protect his cousin. At this moment, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also had to admit that the power of Wei Huo's relatives was a little too great, but looking at the reactions of nearly half of the courtiers, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not have much time to think, and the joy of getting the "Feng Zen Book" just now had not dissipated, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was not too angry with Huo Quai.

After waiting for more than ten breaths, Emperor Wu of Han said in a majestic voice: "Quasi-play, but how to divide the fiefdoms of the three princes will be discussed later." "Emperor Wu of Han agreed, but he also had to delay it, and this is also a normal procedure, the fiefdom of the princes and kings is a major matter, and it is not something that Emperor Wu of Han can decide with a word.

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Under the leadership of Huo Quzhi, the courtiers all called Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Shengming, and this time even the courtiers who had not joined the request before also joined in. Huo Qubing was already very satisfied with such a result, as long as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty agreed, his goal would be achieved, as for why the three princes were crowned, Huo Qubing didn't care.
