Chapter 257: My Huo Family Has Performed Meritorious Service for the Great Han and Shed Blood (Plus Change)
Huo Guang looked at the picture of Zhou Gong becoming a king on the wall, his heart was like a mess, and he didn't know what to do.
He watched it for half an hour, and when his legs and feet were sore, he remembered to sit down.
But before he could sit down, he heard the familiar voice coming from outside the door.
"General, the last general Huo Yu came to visit!"
With this voice, the mighty Huo Yu appeared outside the door.
This is Huo Guang's request, as long as it is not in the back house, all of them must be qualified for official positions.
Huo Yu was punished for this incident.
Some time ago, he was fined dozens of lashes for this incident, and he was raised for more than ten days before he could walk, so he can still remember it now.
Huo Guang slowly turned around, staring at Huo Yu with a pair of eagle eyes.
Suddenly, the face of this vertical man is indeed somewhat similar to that of Champion Hou.
But there is no trace of heroism and heroism between the eyebrows, but a lot of resentment and calculation.
Huo Guang hadn't seen his son face-to-face like this for a long time, and he didn't even notice this.
This is quite scheming, but it can't hide the shallow appearance, and I don't know who learned it.
Huo Guang was silent, and with a body of coercion, he came to Huo Yu.
This Huo Yu was not flustered, he just looked at Huo Guang so straight - if he dared to look directly at Huo Guang, I am afraid that Huo Yu was the only one in the Han Empire.
"Smack!"
As soon as he stood firm, a slap from Huo Guang fell on Huo Yu's face.
The latter covered his face in astonishment, but then straightened his chest and stomach and stood up straight again.
"When will you hide the good things you have done with Brother Huoshan from me!"
When Huo Guang was pressing, he deliberately said vaguely, wanting to deceive all Huo Yu's thoughts.
However, like all fathers who neglect their sons, Huo Guang doesn't know his son too well.
In his heart, Huo Yu is still the one who will only come back to Huo Xian to cry after being bullied by the children of other ministers' families.
Where did he think that what the other party had done had already crossed the thunder pool.
Not half a step, but a thousand steps.
There are no fathers in the world, but there are also children in the world.
This child is the weakness of the father and the mother.
This Huo Yu is Huo Guang's weakness.
Huo Guang saw that Huo Yu didn't speak, so he moved forward a little closer, and asked again in an extremely cold tone: "What did you do with the Huns!?" ”
"Zuo just bought some discarded weapons for them, the Han and the Huns have been safe for more than ten years, and I didn't know that the Han was going to use troops against the Huns, and they bid a lot for the iron weapons."
What shocked Huo Guang was that Huo Yu, who was in the "East Window Incident", did not have a trace of guilt, but on the contrary, he was chiseled, as if he was doing a natural thing.
"Is it because the court doesn't give you enough money and food to eat and drink, or is your mother not giving you subsidies and has to do such a head-wrenching thing?"
Huo Guang's hanging hand was about to be raised again, but Huo Yu didn't mean to avoid it at all, but stood straighter.
This made Huo Guang unable to raise his hand.
On the way here, Huo Yu didn't know what was going on, but Huo Guang's slap just now really caught him off guard.
But he also realized immediately that his father didn't know what they were really doing.
In this case, it is better to generously accept a part of it at this time, and use one lie to fulfill another lie.
Anyway, Huo Guang couldn't do anything about himself.
After making this decision, Huo Yu continued to say nonchalantly: "It costs a lot of money to make friends with the soldiers in the battalion, and that little money and food is naturally not enough. ”
"Befriending? Why befriend them? ”
"Naturally, it is for them to work hard for my Huo family, in case of emergency."
Huo Yu's words were conclusive, and he didn't seem to have any remorse.
When Huo Guang heard this, he only felt a chill.
"You erection, what nonsense are you talking about, you want my Huo family to be destroyed." Huo Guang lowered his voice and reprimanded fiercely.
Huo Yu didn't say anything again this time, and finally closed his mouth, but there was still disdain in his eyes.
Huo Guang looked at his son, and suddenly felt that the other party was very strange.
It seems that I never knew him.
yes, how many years have I not spoken to him properly?
Huo Yu has become what he is now, he has to bear seventy percent of the responsibility, and the remaining thirty percent of the responsibility is naturally borne by Huo Xian.
The Huo family, why doesn't it seem to be under his control anymore - he doesn't seem to know much about the Huo family.
Thinking of his debt to Huo Yu, Huo Guang's heart softened.
As he grew older, Huo Guang had another problem of indecisiveness.
"Did you just sell the scrap iron to the Huns?"
"The last general will not dare to deceive the general!"
Huo Guang looked at Huo Yu's determined eyes, his heart settled down a little, and his doubts were dispelled - it was not that Huo Guang was stupid, but that he had to dispel his doubts.
"You and I are the subjects of the Han Dynasty, you must never communicate with the Huns, you have to swear to the ancestors of the Huo family that you will never do anything about the Huns!" Huo Guang pointed at Huo Yu and said, his other hand was on the sword, and it seemed that he was going to kill Huo Yu in the study in the next moment.
After a moment of silence, Huo Yu still spoke.
"I, Huo Yu, the general of Yulin Zhonglang, swear to the ancestors of the Huo family that I will never do anything to betray the Han, otherwise there will be no place to die!" Huo Yu said.
Huo Guang put down his hand, calmed down a little, he staggered forward a few steps and sat down on the couch.
In this moment, Huo Guang suddenly aged many years.
"Sit."
"No." Huo Yu sat stiffly opposite Huo Guang.
Huo Yu's face was expressionless, and Huo Guang couldn't see what he was thinking.
"Why can't you, O Father, understand the good intentions of your father?" Huo Guang was heartbroken.
"After all, one day, I will return to the county officials, and if I want to maintain my Huo family's status in this court, I rely on the Huo family's merits to the Han Dynasty."
"Serving as an assistant to my father for more than ten years is a merit."
"The protégé of the Huo family is in charge of the government, which is a merit."
"Your sister entered the Jiaofang Palace and gave birth to the imperial heir, which is a merit."
"Your brother-in-law's expedition to Wuhuan has won a great victory, which is also a merit."
Huo Guang paused before continuing: "Now, this big battle is imminent, and it is a great opportunity for you to make meritorious contributions. ”
"Mobilize the people for the father's rejuvenation, force the public opinion, and raise a large army to conquer the Huns, just to give you a chance to make meritorious contributions, as long as you make meritorious contributions, you can be crowned marquis and worship the general, if he retires as a father, you can also continue to assist the government."
"Whether it is the current county official or the future imperial heir, they will regard you as a humerus."
"Why do you need to do such a thing?"
Huo Guang said a lot, and at this moment, he finally called himself "father".
Naturally, he was really like an old father, babbling about the arrangements for Huo Yu.
It was said very sincerely and sincerely, without the slightest falsehood.
is the same, the loyalty to the Han is true, and the partiality to the Huo family is also true.
