The husband and wife were silent for a while, and the small room was filled with an oppressive atmosphere, as if the air around them had frozen.

Huo Guang didn't like to read those useless scriptures, and the bamboo slips and silk piles in the study were all chapters and official documents related to the government.

The old stuff gives off a musty smell that makes it even more oppressive.

Today, Huo Guang came back in a hurry, so Huo Xian didn't have time to dress up carefully, but instead of applying powder, he could see the charm between her eyebrows and eyes.

It's just that those flattery have become an abnormal neuroticism under the cover of panic.

"Cai Yi, that old thief, is he crazy, why do you want to bite your husband?"

"And that Bingji and Zhang Anshi, they can get to where they are now, which one of them has not received the kindness of my Huo family, and dares to do such an ungrateful thing, it is even worse than a pig and a dog!"

Huo Xian straightened his waist, like a frightened pheasant, and his words were full of resentment and anger.

Yes, these people have all received the favor of the Huo family, why would they do such a treacherous thing?

Not to mention Huo Xian, even Huo Guang couldn't figure it out.

However, Huo Guang was not worried about them, he was worried about the Son of Heaven.

"Madam, Cai Yi, these people are all trivial, and the old man is worried about ......" Huo Guang looked at Huo Xian's charming appearance, and said slowly, "The old man is worried about the county officials. ”

Huo Xian's horror was a little more, a pair of apricot eyes were round, his mouth was slightly open, and there was only breath out, not incoming qi.

"Husband is saying that this matter is related to the county official?"

Huo Guang stroked his beard and nodded, and the back of his head also hurt.

"But the county magistrate...... Why? ”

"I'm afraid that the county official has always been afraid of the old man." Huo Guang said with a sigh.

There seemed to be unspeakable grievances in his words, why he was suspected of his loyalty to the government—he didn't realize how much coercion he had brought to the Son of Heaven.

Huo Xian's whole person suddenly paused, and he sat down on his heels in despair.

If that's the case, it's a big deal.

Huo Guang looked at Huo Xian, who was unbearable, and said as if to comfort her: "The county official is a young man, and some wild ideas are understandable, and the government is still handled by the Shangshu Administration, and everything has not changed much." ”

Huo Xian's protruding eyes finally regained some of her brilliance, she thought about the details she had just heard, and suddenly said: "It must be Cai Yi, Zhang Anshi, Bingji and others who are instigating from behind!" ”

Huo Guang didn't speak, waiting for Huo Xian to finish speaking.

"Husband, I'm afraid that such evil things have been planned since the selection of the concubine!"

"Didn't Liu De choose the daughters of the Zhang family and the Cai family into the palace just to compete for favor with Chengjun?"

"Now, the three of them feel that the time is ripe, so they will pull others together in the court and sing against my Huo family, wanting to seize the power of the husband!"

"The husband should listen to the advice of the concubine that day and deny all the Zhang Anjun and Cai Wenyan!"

Huo Xian chattered endlessly through the "old accounts", and the appearance of gritting his teeth made Huo Guang a little jealous.

When he said these words, Huo Xian seemed to really regard Huo Guang as the "Emperor of the Han Empire".

In her heart, Huo Guang should say everything in the court, and it seems that there will be no constraints.

However, Huo Guang could never have done this.

Even if it is Emperor Xiaowu, he will be constrained by the ministers, how can he Huo Guang surpass Emperor Xiaowu?

In the past ten years, Huo Guang has been able to control the court, not only because he has skills and ability, but also because he can take advantage of the situation.

After listening to Huo Xian's complaints, Huo Guang said with some displeasure: "The deceased is like a husband, and he is reluctant to work day and night, so don't mention this matter again." ”

Huo Xian tasted Huo Guang's displeasure and quickly stopped his mouth.

But after only being quiet for a moment, Huo Xian frowned, lowered his voice and continued: "Husband, you can not mention the old things, but now they must be instigating them by the side of the county officials, in a vain attempt to deceive the Son of Heaven and do bad things to my Huo family." ”

"The county officials are quick and different from ordinary people, but after all, they have just ascended the throne, and their parents have died since they were young, and there is a lack of discipline and education, and some people are cold and warm, I am afraid that they will inevitably be blinded......

Huo Xian's words were full of madness and disobedience, but he didn't realize it at all, and he said it right.

It seems that the Son of Heaven is really a young man who is ignorant of the world, and only at the instigation of traitors will he do things that destroy the humerus of the big man.

If it is really like what Huo Xian said, then the situation cannot but reach the worst point.

But is it really that simple?

"The husband wants to cut through the mess as he did with the Shangguan family, hoe them all, and then talk to the county magistrate earnestly, and send Chengjun to the palace as soon as possible, the county magistrate will definitely repent!"

Huo Guang shook his head, disagreeing with Huo Xian's opinion.

"Is there anything wrong with the concubine?" Huo Xian asked.

"Madame is right, but I don't know if Madame has ever thought about it, what if the county official is the mastermind of this matter, and Cai Yi and them are just pawns?" Huo Guang's eyes became sharper.

To his surprise, Huo Xian's expression suddenly became more hideous, as if he had guessed that Huo Guang would say this.

"Husband, this is impossible!" Huo Xian screamed, so frightened that Huo Guangdu's expression froze.

Then, Huo Xian gritted his teeth and slowly squeezed a sentence out of his mouth: "Even if the county official is the mastermind, it must have been instigated by others!" ”

"We must not be instigated by others to break with the county officials."

After a long time, Huo Guang nodded silently, and the husband and wife reached a consensus on this matter.

You can clear the king's side, but you can't clear the king.

If this happened a few months ago, then Huo Guang could have taken a more drastic approach to deal with it - even if he insisted on abolishing the Son of Heaven, it was not impossible.

But now it's different, they can't touch the Son of Heaven.

The Son of Heaven worshiped the high temple.

The Son of Heaven was recognized by the Empress Dowager Shangguan.

The Son of Heaven gave Emperor Xiaowu a temple number, and his filial piety was famous.

The Son of Heaven did a lot of practical things for the Han Dynasty and was praised by many courtiers in the court.

The Son of Heaven is even diligent and thrifty, does not build a mausoleum or repair a temple, and does not wear more than eight sets of clothes in all seasons.

The Son of Heaven is benevolent and righteous and loves the people, sends cakes to the palace people, and gives porridge to the homeless people, and the people of Chang'an all praise them.

The Son of Heaven was diligent and studious, and he had already received the support of important ministers in the court.

……

And the Son of Heaven treats the Huo family well, Huo Guang has no reason to abolish the Son of Heaven, if he really wants to do that, the world will attack him en masse.

What's more, Huo Chengjun is already the queen of the Son of Heaven, can he marry someone else if he abolishes the Son of Heaven? This is their last daughter, and it is the last chance for the Huo family's bloodline to merge into the Liu family's bloodline.

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if Huo Guang and Huo Xian threw away all their faces and insisted on letting Huo Chengjun "remarry", in a hurry, where to find a suitable candidate for the Son of Heaven who could inherit the unification?

Huo Guang searched in his heart, Emperor Xiaowu was in the lineage, and there was no suitable candidate.

A few months ago, Huo Guang was able to kill King Guangling and choose one of his heirs to be a puppet, but now, King Guangling is already a sinner condemned by Huo Guang, and it is impossible to establish it again

If you choose someone again, you have to choose someone from among the heirs of Emperor Xiaojing's brothers, the heirs of Emperor Xiaojing.

However, he is an auxiliary minister designated by Emperor Xiaowu, and choosing a non-Emperor Xiaowu bloodline to inherit the temple is simply drinking to quench his thirst.

Huo Guang can "pass the line" again, but Emperor Xiaozhao has been sleeping in Pingling for a few months. If he really does this, I am afraid that the ending in the history books is not as good as Zhao Gao.

All these things add up, and they all point to one result, if you want to abolish the Son of Heaven, it is impossible - if you do it forcibly, I am afraid that the Han Empire will fall apart.

Thinking of this, Huo Guang had a headache and palpitations, and his whole body shook - for a long time, he once again felt the coercion of imperial power.
