Chapter 206: Huo Guang: You don't want to marry my daughter?
In Liu Ponu's consciousness, the arquebus was just a tool to open the minds of the people of the Han Dynasty.
If he really wanted to be armed with arquebuses, then he would have ordered a large number of them long ago.
The high-level ones can't be done, and the talents are zero, so how can you do it if you don't get some low-level things out first?
Therefore, only fifty arquebuses were made for people to learn and understand, and Liu Ponu didn't plan to equip them with this thing in the first place.
Even if he retreated, Liu Ponu felt that he could accept the range of flintlock pistols.
Whether it is a flintlock pistol or an arquebus, until the fixed ammunition is settled, the troops equipped with these weapons can only use a phalanx formation to defend or attack.
And Liu Ponu's hint to Han Yannian made him think in this direction.
As for Li Ling, that thing has actually lost his temper with Liu Ponu in the past two days, and he has to take two days of sick leave every three or five days, either he has a cold or diarrhea, and you tell me about a cold dog day? What about the lake ghosts?
"Your Highness, here are a few letters for you!" At noon the next day, Huo Guang suddenly found Liu Ponu, who was consulting information, and stretched out his hand to hand over a few bamboo slips.
"Oh?" Liu Ponu glanced at Huo Guang, and then slowly took these letters.
Open them one by one, I don't know if I don't see it, but it really scared Liu Ponu a lot.
The names of the people who wrote the letter are not small at all, such as the general Zhao Ponu of Xunye Hou Junji who has a different surname but the same name, Qu Zhong Hou Lei Dian, Fu Li Hou Fubo General Lu Bode, Zhongli Hou Yin at that time, Beidi Du Wei Weishan, Zhuang Hou Fu Lu and so on......
These people are all Huo Quai's old subordinates, and they were all made marquis because they followed Huo Qubing to the expedition.
Zhao Ponu was just a Sima when he followed Huo Qubing on the expedition, Quzhong Marquis Lei Deng inherited the title of his father's servant Peng, and the servant Peng followed Huo Qubing as a Hun to the Han Dynasty to obtain the title of Marquis, and Zhongli Marquis Yin and Zhuang Marquis Fulu also inherited the title of his father Yin Jixuan.
The oldest and oldest of these people are Lu Bode and Wei Shan.
Lu Bode was ordered to join forces with the Lou Chuan general Yang Fu and others to attack Lingnan six years ago, and now that Lingnan has been recovered, Lu Bode divided Lingnan into nine counties, including what was later Hainan.
Although Zhao Tuo pioneered Lingnan, the person who really incorporated Lingnan into the Chinese territory was Lu Bode.
Weishan is still guarding the Northland, but there is basically no war over there, and life is stable.
At that time, Yin and the Fu Lu clan and the three of Lei Deng now have almost no real power in the army, they just inherited their father's title, but they still can't underestimate these people.
They are all from the Huns, and among the current Han army, there are many skilled Hun soldiers, so although these people have no real power, their influence is still there.
And none of these letters reveal a meaning, congratulating himself on becoming the crown prince and expressing his willingness to serve the prince.
The letter was sent by Huo Guang, so Liu Ponu also saved himself from consulting the information, these people were all old generals who followed Huo Quai's expedition back then.
And the rise of Huo Qubing also took the opportunity for Liu Che to weaken Wei Qing's strength a lot, so as long as he mastered these old generals left by Huo Quzhi, he basically controlled two-thirds of the military power of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, people won't come to you for no reason, even if you are the prince.
In this world, except for the emperor who can make them obey unconditionally, the rest are the main generals who once took them on the expedition.
Although Huo Guang did not take them on the expedition, Huo Guang stayed by the emperor's side all the year round because of Huo Qu's illness, coupled with intentional contact and appropriate help, so even after Huo Qu's illness and death, his old subordinates still lived very nourishingly, mainly thanks to Huo Guang's help in the court.
And those people naturally knew how their life came about today, and Huo Guang was Huo Quai's younger brother, so when Huo Guang threw out an olive branch, they took it without hesitation.
Liu Ponu glanced at Huo Guang thoughtfully, he wanted to hand over his power in the army?
Liu Ponu felt that it was a little unrealistic, Huo Guang's biggest confidence was that there was an army to stand for him, the emperor was indeed very good, but the emperor did not dare to take down so many old ministers in one go, if the situation was serious, it would cause a mutiny.
Besides, there is no need, the emperor wants to have many ways to rectify people, and there is no need to use this method of forcing rabbits to bite people.
"Do you want to enter the three provinces?" Liu Ponu asked with a slight frown.
"Your Highness said with a smile, you and Your Majesty have their own decisions about the position of the three provinces, and the minister is quite satisfied now......" Huo Guang sincerely denied Liu Ponu's doubts.
"To tell you the truth, I am only responsible for formulating the system of the three provinces, and the specific candidates are still to be decided by the emperor himself, and you can only get the respective terms of reference of the three provinces at most!" Liu Ponu smiled, he knew what Huo Guang wanted to do, but he chose to pretend to be clear.
Huo Guang directly engaged in such a big battle, and even moved out of his family.
Say he just wanted to enter the three provinces?
Although this is indeed a reliable-sounding statement, Liu Ponu doesn't believe it at all.
The three provinces are the prime ministers after castration, there are a lot of forced things and there is no power, the typical things are more and less money, except for those who want to be officials, they will squeeze their heads and squeeze inside, but anyone who has a desire for power will not enter.
At least no one wants to serve a few terms, that is, to give people a journey, belong to their own unlucky descendants to enjoy the cool, proper good people.
Huo Guang is a smart person, it is impossible not to see these things.
Since it can be seen that he is still willing to make such a big investment, it must have other plans.
And what does Huo Guang want to do on himself?
Thinking about it, only his thirteen-year-old daughter is left, right?
If he is now marrying his daughter, then his daughter is the identity of the crown princess, in order to help himself sit on the throne of the crown prince and hand over the military power in his hand, this statement is very reliable.
Of course, this kind of thing doesn't mean that it will be over if you hand it over.
Connections need to be managed, even if Liu Ponu can control these people handed over by Huo Guang, Huo Guang has not completely lost these connections, and he can still use them at critical moments.
So this matter is not a loss for Huo Guang, anyway, everyone knows that Huo Guang took over the assets left by Huo Quai, which is a matter on the surface.
Even if Huo Guang's daughter was seventeen or eighteen years old, Liu Ponu could agree to marry her.
But she is only thirteen years old, and she is only fourteen years old even if she is a virtual age, although this is a normal phenomenon in the Han Dynasty, no one will say anything about Liu Ponu.
But the dog author is not necessarily, maybe the river crab beast is staring at him......
So Liu Che didn't mention this matter, and Liu Ponu would definitely not mention half a word first, just wait, anyway, it's not that there are no women around.
It's just that Liu Ponu feels a little depressed, why are the four women around him, most of the time has passed, and his stomach just hasn't moved?
Bet Niang's crown prince throne sat well, but she was kicked down because of the problem of no queen, which is too embarrassing......
Liu Che only had Liu Ju at the age of thirty, but he still had a daughter before Liu Ju......
It's no problem for me, Bang Bang doesn't say it, it's also the thickness of the thief, and the combat effectiveness is quite normal......
Liu Ponu always felt as if something was wrong, but he couldn't find the problem.
However, Liu Ponu also thought of another question, if I remember correctly, Huo Guang's wife wanted to make his youngest daughter the queen, but the ruthless person who dared to find someone to drug Xu Pingjun just didn't know if Huo Guang's current wife was the same Huo Xian.
Thinking of this, Liu Ponu was also a little flustered, if it was Huo Xian, then there were some things that would be difficult to say.
The marriage is set by a bad old man, and he has no right to refuse, but a thirteen-year-old girl herself will not dare to start anyway, and it will be too long before him to start at the age of twenty, what if another woman before her is pregnant, what if she is worried about her daughter's status and directly finds someone to drug her?
"Let's go and find out what is the name of Huo Guang's wife?" Liu Ponu hurriedly instructed that if it was really Huo Xian, there were only two ways left for him, either to refuse this marriage, or to find a way to give his mother-in-law some medicine first, so that she didn't have the heart to worry so much......
Liu Ponu couldn't help but shudder with fear of his own thoughts, it was so terrifying!
……
On the other side, Huo Guang, who came out of Liu Ponu, was a little lost.
Liu Ponu's reaction disappointed Huo Guang, could it be that he overestimated Liu Ponu? He didn't even understand what he meant?
It doesn't seem to be, Liu Ponu is a thief and a thief, and many times he speaks extremely obscurely, so it stands to reason that he shouldn't be unable to see his intentions.
Besides, Liu Ponu knew about the marriage, but what did he mean by not mentioning a word?
Did he repent? He doesn't want to marry my daughter anymore? Huo Guang was suddenly stunned, and the whole person instantly froze there.
"My Huo Guang's daughter is not ugly, she is watery, I don't know how many people in Chang'an City are begging to marry my daughter, does he really only like women?"
"Why don't I go and tell him that I remembered the wrong time when I gave birth to my daughter, but my daughter is actually twenty years old?"
For a while, even Huo Guang himself was taken aback by his immortal idea.
It's not a big deal to report a mistake of one or two years old, but it is a mistake to report a seven-year-old in one go......
Besides, the daughter is not fully developed, and the difference between her and an adult woman is quite big, and you can see her approximate age at a glance.
What's even worse is that according to Mrs., her daughter doesn't seem to have had a menstrual affair, and a twenty-year-old woman has never had a menstrual affair, so she asks you if you believe it?
Huo Guang, who had always been determined, couldn't sit still at this time, so he changed his direction in a panic and walked towards the palace where Liu Che was.
"No, I told Your Majesty about this clearly, and I can't delay it any longer......"
