Chapter 66: Time Limits and Confessions
"Ah Guang, I hope you can really think about it again. Ya * Wen * Yan * Love * First * Hair Although I have to admit that Yan'er is a very good woman, will there be a shortage of women in this world? Ah Guang, those who achieve great things are not informal, and you can't miss your good future because of your children's personal feelings! Princess Pingyang really values Huo Guang, and she still thinks that she can persuade Huo Guang to change her mind.
Huo Guang didn't expect Princess Pingyang to persuade herself like this, it was hard to imagine that these words came from a woman like Princess Pingyang. But thinking about the fact that Princess Pingyang was born in an imperial family and grew up from various court struggles, it is true that she cannot be looked at from the eyes of ordinary women, and even a woman like Princess Pingyang is stronger than most men!
"What the princess said is, but the princess should also understand that people must have their own things that cannot be separated from the world, which even reason cannot overcome. The princess should understand in her heart, why her uncle has not had a main room for more than ten years? Huo Guang was silent for a long time before he spoke, he knew that it was useless to persuade Princess Pingyang to reason, because at their level, they would always decide that their ideas were right, and nothing others said.
And the last sentence is the fierce medicine that Huo Guang got after thinking about it, Huo Guang has always been curious about why Wei Qing has never had a wife, and in the end he left this position to Princess Pingyang, who was over fifty years old. Similarly, Princess Pingyang married Wei Qing after the death of her two husbands, which has explained many problems.
In the Han Dynasty, there was a rule, that is, 'Princess Shang Liehou'. It means that the person the princess marries must be a liehou, and the former Wei Qing has a humble status, maybe he and Princess Pingyang have feelings for each other, but the identity gap is destined to be unable to combine. When Wei Qing was named Chang Pinghou, the two had the basic conditions for their union, but Princess Pingyang had married Xiahou Po, Marquis of Ruyin, but even so, as Wei Qing, there was still no main room, which shows his friendship with Princess Pingyang. Huo Guang was sure that he also knew about these Pingyang princesses, and Huo Guang thought that maybe only by making Pingyang princesses resonate with him could she change her mind, so he took the risk of saying these words.
"Huh?" Princess Pingyang's expression changed, and she looked at Huo Guang with a frown. However, after the two looked at each other for a moment, Princess Pingyang finally sighed and said: "Li Yan is indeed the best candidate, I will not change this, this is not for me alone, but for the entire Wei Huo." However, I can give you a deadline, and I will not introduce her to His Majesty until then. Half a year, if you can't find a solution after half a year, then I can only dedicate Li Yan to Your Majesty! ”
Princess Pingyang still insisted on going her own way, but Huo Guang's last sentence seemed to have played a big role. That sentence still made Princess Pingyang give Huo Guang a chance, of course, she still threw the problem to Huo Guang, that is, she wanted Huo Guang to solve this problem by herself.
This problem is really difficult, not to mention that half a year has passed in a flash, it is difficult to find a woman with such beauty as Li Yan and can stand on the side of Wei Huo's relatives. But this at least gave Huo Guang a hope, otherwise Huo Guang would not be able to change Li Yan's fate of becoming Mrs. Li.
But where is such a candidate? How do I find it? Huo Guang also had to make it difficult, you must know that not just any woman can enter the eyes of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and it is even more difficult for such a woman to ensure that she is loyal to Wei Huo.
"As for what method you use, I don't care, after half a year, there must be a woman who can be favored by His Majesty to enter the palace, otherwise Li Yan must enter the palace. She's definitely not in a hurry, let's go out and meet her! Princess Pingyang said undoubtedly, this moment fully revealed his majesty as the eldest princess of the Han Empire. But in the end, she still couldn't hide her love for Huo Guang, and asked Huo Guang to go out to see Li Yan quickly.
Huo Guang could only admit this half-year appointment, no matter what method he used, he would definitely not let Li Yan enter the palace. Even Huo Guang had already thought of the worst, but in the end, he learned from Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun, and took Li Yan to find a remote place to live in seclusion.
After Huo Guang walked out of the music hall, Princess Pingyang looked at Huo Guang's disappearing back and shook her head slightly, muttering to herself: "No matter what the result is, I hope that through this incident, you can grow up!" ”
"Yan'er, come with me for a walk in the city!" Huo Guang's mood was very depressed at the moment, and he didn't know whether to tell Li Yan about his conversation with Princess Pingyang.
"Well, second brother, you go back first. I'll go shopping with Ah Guang. Li Yan hadn't noticed Huo Guang's abnormality yet, as long as Huo Guang was together, she was naturally very happy.
Li Yannian left alone without saying anything, he also has a good impression of Huo Guang, in Li Yannian's opinion, if Li Yan can become Huo Guang's wife and concubine, it will also be very good!
"Yeon'er, do you remember where we first met? Why don't we go to the Hu Tavern and sit down? "In the Western Han Dynasty, women were still very free and independent, and there was no rule that they couldn't show their heads, even if they went to a tavern, it was normal.
"Well, of course I do. The boss is a native of Gushi's country, and he is still a very good person, and I haven't seen him for a long time. "Li Yan knows the owner of the Western Regions Tavern, as for Gushiguo, it is actually the later Cheshiguo, but now it has not been broken by the Western Han Dynasty, and it has not been changed to Cheshiguo.
So Huo Guang and Li Yan went towards the Western Regions Tavern on Hengmen Street, but Huo Guang rarely spoke along the way. At this time, Huo Guang was still thinking, should he tell Li Yan about Princess Pingyang's thoughts? Huo Guang didn't want to say it, but after thinking about it, after all, this matter was directly related to Li Yan, and he hadn't confirmed the relationship with her yet, so it seemed that he didn't have the right to decide Li Yan's future.
Of course, this kind of thinking is Huo Guang's thoughts in later generations, only later generations will lift it, whether they enter the palace or not, this decision is not made by Huo Guang, but should be decided by Li Yan herself. Of course, if Li Yan is determined to follow Huo Guang as well, then he has the obligation and responsibility to solve this matter.
Huo Guang and Li Yan found a quiet seat in the tavern and sat down, since the last Sang Hongyang incident, Li Yan no longer needs to go in and out of the tavern to make money, but the characteristic signature of the Western Regions Tavern is indispensable. At this time, Huo Guang didn't have the heart to appreciate any Western Regions dance, but was thinking about how to tell Li Yan.
"Ah Guang, what did you say to the princess? I see you are absent-minded when you come out! Huo Guang's abnormality was already obvious, and Li Yan finally found out, and immediately asked with concern.
"Yan'er, the princess and I talked about you. I think I should let you know about it, and I want to know what you think! Huo Guang sighed and said, anyway, Li Yan had already asked, so he simply said it directly.
Li Yan was taken aback when she heard this, and asked curiously, "About me?" What the hell is going on? ”
"The princess wants you to enter the palace!" Huo Guang paused and whispered.
"What are you doing in the palace?" Li Yan didn't seem to realize it yet, maybe she didn't know what it meant to enter the palace.
"I want you to enter the palace to be favored by Your Majesty, and from now on you will become Your Majesty's woman." Huo Guang's tone was still calm, but it was difficult to hide the faint sourness in his tone.
"No, I don't want to enter the palace. Ah Guang, don't you still understand my mind? I'm not going anywhere in this life! Li Yan finally realized what the woman who entered the palace to become the emperor thought, and in a hurry, she finally ignored her shyness and said what she had always wanted to say but didn't dare to say.
When he heard Li Yan's words, Huo Guang was very happy from the bottom of his heart, which showed Li Yan's heart, and also proved that Huo Guang's choice was right, and even if he took a big risk in the future, it would be worth it!
"Yan'er, don't worry, I don't think so. I won't let anyone snatch you, not even Your Majesty. I had made an agreement with the princess, and she gave me half a year's limit. Yan'er rest assured, I will definitely deal with this matter in less than half a year! Huo Guang reached out and grabbed the back of Li Yan's hand, and he also made his due promise.
"Half a year? Why did the princess have to break us apart? Li Yan's mind was very simple, he didn't understand why Princess Pingyang had to do this, even if Huo Guang objected, she would insist on going her own way for half a year. Even in the past month, Li Yan's good impression of Princess Pingyang has disappeared, and it has been replaced by a trace of hatred.
"There are some things that you have a hard time understanding, but you can't blame the princess for everything. You just have to believe me, in this life, I Huo Guang will live up to Li Yan! Huo Guang is not a person who complains casually, let alone complains when he encounters a little hardship, and he doesn't even have too much hatred for Huo Guang, the princess of Pingyang. Huo Guang knew that it was useless to blame anyone for all this, and he had to blame himself for being too small and his status too low. If you are so strong that you can say anything, how can these things happen? So Huo Guang won't resent anyone, he just needs to know how to solve problems, how to make himself grow, and grow up to be a truly free person in this feudal empire.
"Ah Guang, I believe in you. If there ever was a day, I would rather die than leave you. Li Yan stared at Huo Guang and said firmly, changing her previous weak image. At this moment, Huo Guang realized that he had never found that Li Yan still had such a strong side.
"It's nonsense, it's not that bad. We are all still so young, and we still have countless good years, how can we say that we are dead so early! Huo Guang pretended to be slightly angry and said, but it was obvious that he was joking. However, after Huo Guang said this, Li Yan was also relieved a lot.
"By the way, Yan'er, I met an old gentleman when I was in Pingyang before, and he taught me a way to make flying lanterns, why don't we go back to the house and I'll show you!" Huo Guang didn't want Li Yan to be so sad all the time, and suddenly thought of the Kong Ming lantern that appeared hundreds of years later, and thought that this was a good way to pick up girls, so he planned to use it to make Li Yan happy. Although most of the later inventions of Huo Guang, a traverser, are not available, it is still no problem to use gadgets like Kong Ming lanterns that are just simple physical principles.
