When Tianzi received the military information from Lingwu County, Fan Mingyou's secret letter to Huo Guang was also sent to the general's mansion.

At this time, Huo Guang was having dinner with Huo Xian in the main hall of the back house, since Huo Chengjun entered the palace, only the two of them were left to eat together, and it was inevitable that they would be deserted.

Therefore, it is very simple to eat everything.

Before Huo Guang could put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, Chen Wannian ran in in a panic.

Because he was in too much of a hurry, Chen Wannian stumbled on the high threshold and fell heavily.

And the messenger in his hand rolled to Huo Guang's desk with a "gurgling".

Huo Guang was very displeased, although Chen Wannian was cautious in doing things, he was too calm.

"What's the panic, what kind of appearance does this look like!?" Huo Guang scolded.

"Great, General, this is a secret letter sent by General Pham Minh Woo!"

Chen Wannian didn't care about the pain in his knees, so he quickly got up, picked up the messenger and handed it to Huo Guang's hand.

More than ten days ago, the Son of Heaven issued an edict to "seize" Fan Mingyou's military power, and from that day on, Huo Guang was eager to receive Fan Mingyou's letter.

He really wanted to know what happened to the northern army, so they made up their minds to return south to Cyprus in advance.

With the edict of the Son of Heaven and his own letter, Fan Mingyou and the others should always explain it to themselves.

Huo Guang thought so in his heart, he couldn't wait any longer, and after letting Huo Xian take away the scraps on the case, he opened the messenger.

Just by glancing, Huo Guang saw the six words "Qingjun side, punish Cai Yi".

A chill spread from his eyes to his whole body!

These six words were just the beginning, and the more Huo Guang looked down, the more frightened he felt.

The ink characters were like clusters of arrows, shooting straight into Huo Guang's chest, making him bleed.

"The last generals Fan Mingyou, Tian Guangming, and Tian Shun report to the generals, the current county officials are unconscious, deceived by Cai thieves, and want to destroy the Great Wall......"

"The soldiers of the expedition to the north were shocked, filled with grief and indignation, and we conformed to the will of the army and carried out the great event of 'Qingjun side and Cai Yi'......"

"Our loyalty, heaven and earth are clear, and the sun and the moon can be seen!"

"General Wangda and we should cooperate with the outside world, do righteous deeds together, admonish the Son of Heaven, support the Han family, and get the good name of Yiyin Zhou Gong!"

Although Fan Mingyou is a military general, he can write a good hand, and a few sentences in this secret letter are even more straightforward, as if he is really a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.

However, how could these extremely hypocritical words deceive Huo Guang?

What Fan Minh You wants to do, where is the "righteous act", it is clearly a "rebellion"!

This erection is so bold!!

actually did such a rebellious thing!!

Huo Guang stood up suddenly, and immediately wanted to take this letter to Weiyang Palace to hand it over to the Son of Heaven, and then ask the Son of Heaven to issue an edict to summon King Qin's troops and set foot on the Fan thief.

However, before he could lift his feet, the sky that had been clear for many days suddenly crossed a series of gaps, followed by a loud thunderclap.

The sudden sound of thunder shook the beams and pillars of the main hall.

Huo Guang stopped, looked at the secret letter that seemed to be dripping with blood with his eyes blankly, and sobered up a little.

This rebel is none other than his own son-in-law!

And Huo Yu and the closest sons and nephews of the Huo family are all in these three armies.

Fan Mingyou rebelled, could Huo Yu get rid of it? Could it be that dozens or hundreds of Huo family nephews can get rid of it? Can you, the general, get rid of it?

He, Huo Guang, Lingshang Shushi, Marquis Bolu, General Sima, Huo Quai's younger brother, and the auxiliary minister designated by Emperor Xiaowu——

was forced by his son-in-law to become a traitorous rebellious thief!?

A wave of dizziness suddenly hit the back of his head, Huo Guang fell down with a "bang" like a month ago, and the letter fell to the ground lightly.

"Husband! Husband! Huo Xian, who was standing on the side, panicked and hurriedly pounced.

"General! General! Chen Wannian knelt in place, shouting at the top of his voice.

But no matter how the two of them shouted, Huo Guang, who closed his eyes tightly, had a face like gold paper and did not respond.

"Quick! Go and call Chun Yuyan! Huo Xian screamed.

"But this is the back house...... Xia Guan was a foreign minister...... I'm afraid there will be criticism......"

"Go! Whoever dares to gossip, I will cut him out at once! Huo Xian's slender fingers poked straight in front of Chen Wannian's nose, looking hideous.

Chen Wannian didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and ran out of the right place to find Chun Yuyan.

Fortunately, Chun Yuyan came soon, hurriedly pricked it with a few needles, and then started to pinch the person......

Huo Xian gritted his teeth and looked at Huo Guang, his hands clutching the latter's sleeves tightly, afraid that his husband would never wake up again.

Before she could read the letter, she knew that something big had happened, and her husband couldn't die now!

Maybe it was the blessing of the ancestors of the Huo family, Chun Yuyan tossed back and forth for more than half an hour, and Huo Guang finally woke up leisurely.

"Letter...... Letter ......" Huo Guang, who was lying in Huo Xian's arms, trembled and pointed to the letter on the ground.

Chen Wannian, who was standing on the side, was about to pick it up, but before his hand touched the letter, Huo Guang struggled to touch a teacup on the case and smashed it hard.

Huo Guang's abnormal behavior frightened Chen Wannian and quickly knelt down, not daring to make any more moves.

"Letter...... Letter...... No one can move! Huo Guang finally finished saying this sentence intermittently.

If it was ordinary people like Meng Ban, Guan Er, and Zhang San who fell just now, then whether it was fierce or auspicious, I am afraid it would take a day or two to recover.

But how could Huo Guang be an ordinary person, this political strongman was able to sit up straight after only a quarter of an hour of rest when life and death were at stake.

"Madame, you ...... Go and bring the letter to the old man. ”

"No!" Huo Xian didn't know why, so he hurriedly went to pick up the letter.

When the letter returned to Huo Guang's hand, he didn't look at it again, but crumpled it up and squeezed it tightly in his hand.

This letter is not for anyone to see!

asked Huo Xian to pick up the letter, not only because he trusted her, but also because she was illiterate.

"Chun Yuyan retreated, Chen Wannian went to the front office, and called the messengers waiting for the messenger to wait under the hall."

"No!" The two hurriedly went their separate ways.

Without outsiders, Huo Xian finally couldn't care about other things, and hurriedly sat next to Huo Guang and grabbed his sleeve.

"Husband! What exactly did Mingyou write in the letter!? Why is my husband so panicked!? ”

"This son of a fool is carrying tens of thousands of troops—it's the opposite!" Huo Guang was heartbroken.

"Huh!?" Huo Xian was also frightened, and hurriedly raised his hand to cover his mouth, as if he was afraid that he would leak the news of this matter.

Huo Xian suddenly remembered the letter he wrote to Fan Mingyou more than a month ago, was it because of that letter?

At that time, she just wanted them to find an opportunity to bring troops back to help Huo Guang, where did she expect that such a disaster would be caused?

It must be that Huo Yu was still thinking about the foolish thing that made Huo Guang the emperor, so he took the opportunity to do this fateful evil thing.

The 70,000 army rebelled, and the good thing or bad thing this brought to the Huo family, Huo Xian couldn't tell at all at the moment.

Her innate instinct to camp for survival had no effect at all at this time.

Huo Xian looked at Huo Guang, who had just woken up, and didn't dare to tell Huo Guang about the delivery of the letter: Huo Guang knew about it, and he was afraid that he would kill himself immediately.

If you hide one thing, you can only continue to hide it one by one.

"Husband, husband, what should I do now?" Huo Xian asked eagerly.

Huo Guang closed his eyes tightly, didn't say a word, and quickly calculated the current situation.

In the letter I received just now, in addition to the "heartfelt words" of Fan Minh You's "loyalty", I also wrote the plan of the army: divide the troops, hurry and slow.

Huo Guang has never personally commanded tens of thousands of troops, but after all, he has been in the position of a general for a long time, so he is naturally a soldier.

If not that this is a rebellion against the head, it is an excellent strategy – and the only one.

At this moment, Fan Mingyou's department is probably about to reach Sanshui, and it will not take seven or eight days to reach Qi County, and within ten days to Chang'an.

At that time, Tian Guangming's subordinate will be able to control all of Anding County and most of Beidi Prefecture, and Tian Shun's subordinate will also arrive in Chang'an.

From this point of view, the chances of Fan Minh You and others succeeding are very high, almost to the point where they are only one foot away.

Thinking of the strange behavior of the Northern Army before the expedition, I am afraid that before the army set out, Fan Mingyou and others planned this evil thing.

Before the expedition, Huo Guang had a dispute with Huo Yu because of his collusion with the Huns.

It seems that the conspiracy behind this is far deeper and darker than Huo Guang imagined.

What made Huo Guang even more angry was that Fan Mingyou, Huo Yu and others still had many things to hide from themselves.

Fan Minh You, they are in the north, and there are tens of thousands of troops guarding them, so naturally their lives are safe.

And he, Huo Guang and Huo's relatives, are all in Chang'an City, and there is simply no way out.

These two shafts have come to this kind of field in cold blood and ruthlessly!?

He received a secret letter, so the Son of Heaven must have also received a military intelligence.

Although the Son of Heaven respects him, which emperor can tolerate the rebellion of the generals?

Maybe at this moment, the Son of Heaven is already thinking about what to do with the Huo family.

The more Huo Guang thought about it, the more he felt that his heart was numb, and he couldn't figure out a clue at all, the hateful vertigo hit again, and he almost fell down again.

"Husband! Husband! Now you can't get sick, the Huo family is in danger, and without a husband, I'm afraid the building will collapse! ”

Huo Xian's screams made Huo Guang sober up a little.

Yes, we can't fall down now, and we have to find a way to sort out a clue as soon as possible.

After all, he is the Great Sima General, the father of the Empress, the middle father and father-in-law of the Son of Heaven, the grandfather of the Empress Dowager, the Danshu Iron Coupon, and the minions and henchmen - and great merit!

With these, Huo Guang can do a lot.

Now, you have to come up with an idea!

Huo Guang flattened the secret letter that had been crumpled by himself on the case, and read it again from beginning to end.

Gradually, two paths were figured out in my mind.

These two paths seem to be the way to live, but they are full of thorns, and they may be dead ends.

But at this critical juncture, how can there be a bright road that is open and open?

This first road is the road to the greenhouse hall of Weiyang Palace.

Huo Guang could immediately go to Weiyang Palace and denounce the disobedience and disloyalty of Fan Mingyou and others in front of the Son of Heaven.

Then Fan Mingyou and others asked him to plan and put together with the outside world, and then assisted the Son of Heaven to rectify the defense of Chang'an, and together with the Son of Heaven to resist the enemy, and continue to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.

Taking this road can not only fulfill Huo Guang's name of loyalty, but also temporarily save the lives of everyone in the Huo family.

But what about in the future? In the future, when the Son of Heaven relaxes, will he let go of the Huo family?

If Fan Mingyou's troops are like a bamboo, and the soldiers successfully approach Chang'an City, if the Son of Heaven wants to be a benevolent monarch, he will also take the Huo family to the city wall and cut off their heads one by one in front of Fan Mingyou.

But on the other hand, if Fan Mingyou's subordinates were defeated in the end and the Son of Heaven sat firmly on the throne, would he let go of the Huo family?

What's more, Huo Yu is also in Fan Ming's friendly army at the moment, if Huo Yu dies in battle, then even if the Huo family survives, he will be like Emperor Xiaozhao.

The Son of Heaven may choose one of Huo's side nephews to be Huo Guang's son, but is that still the Huo family that Huo Guang wants?

Continuing to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty wholeheartedly is no longer Huo Guang's best choice now.

And this second road is the road to Pham Minh's friendly army.

Huo Guang can cooperate with Fan Mingyou, raise the banner of "Qing Jun's side, punish Cai Yi" in Chang'an, and control Chang'an City and the Son of Heaven.

Ten days later, Pham Minh You will lead a large army to take Chang'an, and all the turmoil will eventually calm down.

Huo Guang can rely on the Huo Party, who has returned to Chang'an, to continue to be the auxiliary minister, and the limelight is still the same as in the past, and even the power can be better than in the past.

This road can make Huo Guang benefit the most, but is it really that easy to walk?

Today, the only army that Huo Guang can control is the 2,500 men and horses of the lieutenant lieutenant and the more than 2,000 soldiers who patrol the city with Jinwu.

The Son of Heaven had five or six thousand southern troops in his hands.

Even if Huo Guang really wanted to control the situation in Chang'an City, it would not be an easy task.

If you are not careful, the Huo family will probably bleed tonight.

On the other hand, even if this road is really successful, Huo Guang can gain a lot, but he will also lose the one thing he values most - reputation.

Once Huo Guang does this, even if the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother can be ordered to correct the names of Huo Guang and others, the stroke he left in the history books is not good-looking.

Yi Yin put Taijia, Zhou Gongfu became the king, and Guan Zhong shot Xiaobai...... Huo Guang would never have left such a good reputation.

At most, he will only be like Cui Zhu, who was called a powerful minister by later history books.

Ordinary people pursue Lilu money and food, but Huo Guang, who stands at the peak of the Han Empire, is different, he wants to leave a name in history, and he wants the title of a minister through the ages.

……

Looking at it this way, neither path is the best choice.

Suddenly, Huo Guang, who gradually regained a little of his spirit, became entangled and hesitant in his heart again.

When people are old, they will suffer from gains and losses and hesitate in the face of many things.

Huo Guang has too many things, so he is afraid that he will lose the whole game if he is a little careless.

If this happened more than twenty years ago, or even ten years ago, Huo Guang would not have been as difficult to make a decision as he is now.

Because he will find that although these two paths are full of dangers, there is also the possibility of whether they can be extremely successful.

I only saw one side and ignored the other side - the truth that blessings and misfortunes depend on each other was left behind by the elderly Huo Guang.

On the contrary, Huo Xian on the side looked at Huo Guang in a trance, very puzzled and even disdainful.

"Husband, at this critical moment, you must not hesitate so much!" Huo Xian, whose hair was scattered, tugged at Huo Guang's sleeve and said anxiously.

"The old man naturally knows, but the stakes are so high, how can he not hesitate......"

After Huo Guang finished speaking, he said what he wanted Huo Xian in his heart.

"Madam, which of these two roads do you think is better?" Huo Guang actually asked Huo Xian rhetorically.

"The husband is so confused, since he believes that the Son of Heaven already knows about this, the situation has already reached the point of danger, how can the husband take care of any reputation?!"

"First save your life and mine, save the life of the Huo family, and save Yu'er's life...... That's the priority! ”

At this critical juncture, Huo Xian, who is six out of forty, can see more clearly and thoroughly than Huo Guang.

"But ......" Huo Guang still couldn't let go of his obsession with the name of his loyal ministers.

"Husband! Look no further! Have you forgotten the fate of Zhu Lu when Emperor Xiaowen? Huo Xian suddenly raised his voice and screamed.

This was the first time she showed hideousness and ruthlessness in front of Huo Guang, and the appearance of her teeth and claws made Huo Guang feel afraid.

Huo Xian's crazy and distorted face made Huo Guang come back to his senses.

This is not the time to worry about the minutiae, now I have to go down the second path first!

History books are written by victors, and those who died tragically are not even worthy of leaving their names.

Just like the Later Young Emperor Liu Hong and several of his brothers, who were ordered to be killed by Emperor Xiaowen in the past, who dares to discuss whether they are the heirs of Emperor Xiaohui or not?

Only by living can you leave your name in the history books.

"Madame reminded me that the old man was thinking too much, and the Huo family didn't have a wife, so I didn't know what kind of field it would be." Huo Guang pretended to be relaxed and said.

After saying that, Huo Guang stood up a little shaky, and Huo Xian hurriedly went to help.

At this moment, Huo Xian was in no mood to cater to Huo Guang's praise to her, and just wanted her husband to quickly show the courage of a general.

"The old man understands what to do, don't worry, Madame, with the old man here, the sky of Chang'an City will not fall!"

Huo Guang settled down, and prepared to go out and go to the front of the main hall to give orders.

At this moment, Huo Xian suddenly grabbed Huo Guang's sleeve from behind.

"The husband is slow, the concubine still has a plan, which can be used as an alternative, if it is a last resort, there can be a turnaround!" Huo Xian's words were full of poison.

"Oh? What a clever plan Madame. ”

The petite Huo Xian stood on tiptoe, leaned into Huo Guang's ear, and said the plan he had just come up with in an indifferent tone.

At first, Huo Guang felt that it was a little incredible, and even thought it was nonsense.

But the more he listened, the more he felt reasonable.

Especially after reading the secret letter sent by Fan Mingyou, I felt even more that the back road left by Huo Xian could be passed.

With this back road, at least the Huo family can leave a glimmer of life when they lose all the games, and they will not be wiped out overnight.

"Madame has a good plan, but it's going to be bitter......" Huo Guang sighed.

"In this world, who is not bitter, as long as the big tree of the Huo family does not fall, they will be compensated when the time comes." Huo Xian said indifferently, with determination in his eyes.

"Madame is right, but don't worry, the old man will not let this Chang'an City go into chaos, the little man can't fight the old man."

Huo Guang shook Huo Xian's hand calmly, and without saying anything, he strode in the direction of the front yazheng hall.

It seems that everything is in the middle of the plan.

Ask for a subscription! The time speed of the stories in the book is slower than in real life, and many interesting things will happen on this night and day.
