Chapter 442: Idle Clouds and Wild Cranes
She cooks when she's in a good mood, as she is today, when she's preparing a simple and nutritious dinner.
When Han Hao returned home, he first walked into the house and found that there was no Xie Wanqing, so he smiled and turned to the kitchen.
He expected that she must be there, and when he entered the door, he saw that Xie Wanqing was cooking a pot of soup. The soup was emitting white smoke at the moment, and it looked very smoky.
"Evening sunshine." Han Hao rarely saw Xie Wanqing washing her hands and making soup like this, and she was moved for a while, so she hugged her from behind, buried her face in her neck socket, and called her in a low voice.
"What's wrong?" Xie Wanqing felt that Han Hao was like this today, which was really unreasonable. After all, Han Hao is a serious iron-blooded soldier, and he has never been so tender on weekdays, but today is really abnormal.
She turned around, looked at Han Hao with a pair of beautiful eyes, and asked strangely, "What's wrong with you today?" What's the joy? ”
Seeing her like this, Han Hao shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I have something I want to discuss with you." ”
"That's it." Xie Wanting smiled when she heard this, and patted him on the ground, "When did you learn to hide and tuck in front of me, if you have something to say, say it quickly." ”
"I want to discuss with you, I don't want to be this general anymore, I'm too tired of being a general, if it's too peaceful today, it's better for me to hand in the talisman, you and I will go into seclusion from now on, and go to live the days of idle clouds and wild cranes, what do you think?"
Xie Wanqing's temperament is quiet and indifferent, although she grew up in the Hou Mansion since she was a child, she is not the kind of person who covets glory and wealth.
Hearing Han Hao say this time, Xie Wanqing naturally had no opinion. It's just that she didn't expect Han Hao to be able to let go of his identity, the position of this general is something that he has worked hard for many years to get to where he is now.
Xie Wanqing suddenly had a little admiration for Han Hao's letting go in her heart, after all, there are not many people in the world who can make such a decision.
So she nodded and said: "If you make up your mind to do so, I am naturally willing, after all, I am not greedy for the prosperity of this capital, if I can be with you idle clouds and wild cranes, it is really what I want in my heart." ”
"If only you could think so." Han Hao also laughed shallowly, and said with a sparkle in his eyes, "I'm afraid that you don't want to listen to the decision I made. ”
"If you agree, then I will hand over the talisman to the emperor tomorrow morning, so that he can dispel his suspicions, and he will not be killed for you and me."
After hearing his words, Xie Wanqing nodded silently, as if she was thinking about something, and only said after a while: "You are right to think like this, and this idea is also very wise." ”
"After all, the story of the high merit and the master, the birds are hidden in the bow, and the story of the rabbit and the dead dog cooking is not unreasonable, although the emperor has not revealed it yet, but we also need to make plans in advance."
After the two of them agreed, Han Hao washed his hands and began to prepare dinner with Xie Wanqing.
He was so busy that he hadn't enjoyed this quiet and peaceful life for a long time, and when he experienced it suddenly, he suddenly felt that his heart was filled with happiness.
Finally freed from the shadows of the swords and swords on the battlefield, he realized that the peace and happiness at this moment was the true meaning of life.
So on the court the next day, the following scene happened.
The emperor sat on the throne with a very majestic expression, and was just about to open his mouth to announce what he wanted to reward Han Hao. This is the result of his thinking all night last night, and in order to think about this matter, the emperor has to have a few more gray hairs.
The civil and military officials below were also looking forward to this moment, because they also wanted to know, what reward could Han Hao, who was already a supreme minister, get?
But none of the things they imagined happened, because the emperor's sentence "Han Aiqing" was interrupted by Han Hao's words as soon as he shouted out.
"Your Majesty." Han Hao strode out of the column to the right, holding the jade plate, and said in a deep voice, "The minister has something to say. ”
The emperor couldn't help but feel a little surprised, he didn't know what Han Hao was going to say at this time, but he could only nod and gesture to him: "Aiqing, you say, what do you want?" I will try my best to satisfy you, you are the hero of our Great Chu. ”
Han Hao looked up at the emperor and said very calmly: "Report to the emperor, the minister doesn't want any reward, the minister is asking the emperor to take back the talisman in the minister's hand." ”
As soon as he said this, there was an uproar all around, and no one understood why Han Hao was willing to hand over the talisman in his hand at such a moment.
The talisman is his biggest reliance now, and the safety of the emperor and even the entire Great Chu is all tied to him, and he handed over the talisman at this time, wouldn't he ruin all his glory and wealth?
Everyone around him thought he was really stupid, but Han Hao didn't think so, he just stared at the emperor directly, and then said slowly: "The minister has already quelled the rebellion of King Liang for the emperor, and if it is peaceful today, this talisman is really useless in the hands of the minister." ”
"It's better for the emperor to take back this talisman, if there is another war in the future, it's not too late to take out this talisman. All the minister wants now is to accompany his pregnant wife. ”
His tone was unhurried, but very firm: "A few days ago, the war continued, although she was pregnant, but she has not lived a day of stability, and now that the war is over, the minister is very guilty of her, so he wants to accompany her more." ”
"What the minister wishes in his heart is to be able to go into seclusion with her, live a peaceful life for a period of time, and hope that the emperor will be fulfilled."
"Aiqing, please get up quickly." The emperor never expected him to say this, he was still thinking about what kind of excuse to use to take back the talisman in Han Hao's hand, but he didn't expect this Han Hao to be so loyal and upright. There is no disobedience in the slightest.
The emperor suddenly felt that he was really living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and his heart was full of guilt for Han Hao. Obviously, he is the hero of the entire Great Chu, and he is his benefactor, but he is so suspicious of him, it really shouldn't be.
Thinking of this, the emperor walked down the dragon chair in three steps and two steps, walked to the court, helped Han Hao up, and said: "Han Aiqing can have this heart, your wife must be very pleased, since you have said so, then I will promise you."
"Not only that, but I will also reward you with a thousand taels of gold and a thousand horses of brocade, so that you can live a comfortable and good life." The emperor waved his hand and said,
"Thank you for the emperor's kindness, but you don't have to." Han Hao smiled and shook his head, he had originally pursued fame and fortune, if the emperor rewarded him with so many gold and silver treasures, he would not be able to live the kind of indifferent and quiet life he wanted.
"I also asked the emperor to take back the order, but the minister really didn't want anything. I only wish Your Majesty a long life, and Da Chu is safe and sound, and this is enough. Han Hao lowered his head and said with his fists clenched.
Han Hao let out a long sigh and said: "It's really my luck to have Han Qing like this, so I promised you, from tomorrow, you don't have to be involved in the disputes of the imperial court, go and live the life that Aiqing wants." ”
Hearing the emperor's words, Han Hao immediately fell to the ground, kowtowed three times in the direction of the emperor, stood up and said, "Minister, thank you for the emperor's success." ”
The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all surprised, they really thought that Han Hao was stupid. What a great opportunity it was in their eyes, but he just gave it up.
Obviously, he can already be the emperor's confidant and close minister, but he doesn't want it, and he still says that he wants to be an idle cloud and a wild crane and retreat to the mountains and forests, I'm afraid that only he Han Hao can do such a stupid thing.
How many people's dreams have been given up by him so simply. It's really stupid and pitiful, and the ministers shook their heads in regret.
However, Xie Wanqing and Han Hao have never been people who care about other people's opinions, and the two of them are very happy to receive the emperor's permission.
Without the talisman, Han Hao felt that his body was like a mountain that was missing, and his whole person became a lot more relaxed, and the two immediately discussed that after the child was born, they would go to all parts of the country to play in the mountains and rivers.
