Although Liu Xun was not Huo Guang's first choice, Huo Guang was satisfied with everything now.On the day of enthronement, Liu Xun praised him for his virtue in front of the officials of the Manchu Dynasty.After ascending the throne, Liu Xun would consult his opinion in advance no matter the major or minor matters.Under the negotiation between the two, the 100,000 troops in Guanzhong were ready to attack the invading Huns head-on, and the auspicious day for Huo Chengjun to enter the palace had also been selected. There are hidden differences. Xiao Wangzhi, a native of Lanling, East China Sea, was an ordinary peasant boy. He was diligent and studious when he was a teenager, full of economics, and was famous for his talent. His elder Shi Bingji recommended him to Huo Guang. Huo Guang specially summoned him. He heard his classics and histories. Huo Guang appreciates his outstanding talent. It stands to reason that he should have a successful official career, but because he disobeyed Huo Guang in a small matter, his status has plummeted since then, and he has been depressed.

After Liu Xun ascended the throne, he heard about this person, became interested, and ordered him to meet him. After talking with him, he found that Guoru, as rumored outside, was full of economics and outstanding talent, so he immediately decided to use Xiao Wangzhi again.Of course, Liu Xun has another more important consideration. Because this person offended Huo Guang and has been relegated by Huo Guang for many years, he must have grudges against Huo Guang. A wise man who will be attracted by Huo Guang. On the issue of the Western Regions, Liu Xun showed that he did not want to be involved in the civil strife in Wusun, let alone use troops.Although under Huo Guang's repeated persuasion, he reluctantly agreed to Huo Guang's sending troops to secretly assist Wusun, but he planned to send Xiao Wangzhi as the special envoy of the Han Dynasty to accompany the army.Huo Guang strongly opposed it. Although Liu Xun did not confront Huo Guang face to face, as long as Huo Guang opposed Xiao Wangzhi, he would ignore the war in Wusun.In addition, there were many anti-war Confucian scholars in the court, who believed that the country had just stabilized and should rest and recuperate. It really shouldn't go to war and waste people's money for the civil strife in a country in the Western Regions. Liu Xun appreciated their views very much. Naturally, he followed the advice of the Confucian scholars and stood still.

The situation in Wusun was imminent, Huo Guang had no choice but to back down and accept Xiao Wangzhi as his special envoy.When Huo Guang took a step back, Liu Xun also made a bigger step back, agreeing to Huo Guang's request and sending troops to the Western Regions.In the first round of the struggle between the two sides, it seemed that Huo Guang had the upper hand, forcing the emperor who was unwilling to use troops to do so, but Huo Guang was not happy. Huo Chengjun persuaded Huo Guang in private: "Father, the emperor just ordered Xiao Wangzhi to be a special envoy, and it's not a big official position. Why should Daddy be unhappy about this? The Huo family has many enemies less than him, and not many more than him." !"

Huo Guang smiled bitterly: "You, like the people outside, think that I didn't reuse him because he disobeyed me in small things? Is your father such a narrow-minded person?" Huo Chengjun said nah, "My daughter is wrong! Is there something hidden?" "Xiao Wangzhi is a talented person. Not to mention the collection of classics and history, he can memorize the code of military law backwards. Perhaps no one in the civil and military examinations of the whole dynasty can defeat him. When the emperor saw him, he was shocked. It's not surprising at all. I was also the same. Such a reaction."

"This person is so talented?" Huo Chengjun was surprised. "I admired him at the time, so I immediately kept him by my side, and decided to entrust him with a heavy responsibility after some experience. However, as time passed, I gradually discovered that this person turned out to be Zhao Kuo who was talking on paper. Dust-free, but in his bones he is famous and powerful, and he refuses to admit it at all." Huo Guang smiled lightly, "The court is not only not a spotless clean place, but a filthy place full of filth, there are only two kinds of people who can live here. Such a place makes great achievements, one is a person with a steadfast heart, no desire but strong, this kind of person is like a white lotus, in the mud, but not stained at all, although the ending is often tragic, but it will last forever; There is a kind of people who are bright-minded, smooth and cunning on the surface, but have their own principles in their hearts. This kind of person is like a loach, who is in the mud, but is not hindered by the mud. Using mud for oneself is a great talent for helping the community and governing the country. People like Xiao Wangzhi think that they are the former, but his arrogance hides cowardice and greed, and running the country will definitely cause trouble. I stop the emperor I am afraid that he will misuse the country, but the emperor thinks that I am afraid that such a 'talented' person will check and balance me in the future." Huo Guang's eyes are full of worry, coupled with his prematurely gray hair, it makes him feel like a fool. People think he looks older.

Huo Chengjun was in a daze when he heard it, and looked at his father in front of him, feeling very strange in his heart. Every time, when she thought she had understood her father, she would find that she still didn't.Is the father vicious or kind?Is it a loyal minister or a traitor?Is it emphasizing friendship, or is it cold?Is it a powerful minister who is greedy for glory, or a wise man with a strong heart? Is the father the second kind of person?She whispered, "Father, you forgot to mention the ending of the second type of person." "The end of the second kind of people?" Huo Guang looked at his daughter gently and smiled. After a long time, he looked into the distance and said: "Some can escape completely, and some are crushed to pieces, but I don't think they care. As long as their goals are achieved, they don't care about the outcome."

Early in the morning, Huo Guang led Huo Yu, Huo Shan, Huo Yun, and Huo Chengjun to the Huo's Ancestral Hall outside Chang'an City to pay homage to their ancestors. It's not a festival, it's not Qingming Festival, and it's not the anniversary of death of a relative. Huo Guang's actions are strange in the eyes of outsiders, but Huo Yu and the others have long been used to it.In my memory since I was a child, my father would come to the ancestral hall when he was happy, and he would come to the ancestral hall when he was unhappy.The dark and heavy wooden door in the ancestral hall, and the lingering incense, seemed to be able to calm all father's mood.

They just couldn't figure out whether their father was happy or unhappy this time.Everything in the court hall went smoothly, logically speaking, he should be happy, but his father's face was surrounded by green smoke, but there was an indistinct melancholy.He seems to be smiling, but when he looks carefully, he always feels that he is carrying too many things while smiling, and even his always calm and calm father seems to find it too difficult to bear. After paying homage to the ancestral tablet, the group of people went to the wing room to rest. Because it was not a formal sacrifice, although Huo Guang himself did not eat meat, he could not forbid his nephew to eat it, so Huo Shan heard that he had just killed a deer from the mountains, and he hurriedly ordered people to set up a stove for barbecue.

Two maids rolled their sleeves and turned over roasted venison with iron chopsticks, while two women simmered wine beside them.Huo Yu, Huo Shan, and Huo Yun sat around the stove, chatting and laughing while eating wine.Huo Guang was leaning on the warm couch, sipping tea while listening to the laughter of the juniors.Huo Chengjun thought the smell of fireworks was strong, so he stayed away from the stove and sat under Huo Guang.She was playing with a wine cup in her hand, meditating silently, the wine was cold for a long time, but she didn't notice it. "Cheng Jun, what are you thinking?" Huo Guang asked.

Huo Chengjun's face was a little pale, he sat down beside Huo Guang, and said softly: "Daddy, do you just let Yunge go like this?" The daughter's obsession is so heavy!Huo Guang sighed secretly, "Yun Ge is insignificant now, and the situation in the court is unclear, so there is no need to be at odds with Meng Jue for her sake." Huo Yu caught the word "Meng Jue", and immediately waved his hands to make the maids and women back down. However, Huo Shan misunderstood Huo Yu's meaning, smiled and picked up the iron chopsticks, picked up the venison and grilled it, "Actually, it's interesting to roast and eat it yourself."

Huo Yun poured himself a cup of hot wine, he didn't seem to pay attention, but he actually listened attentively. Huo Yu said: "Father, Meng Jue is our enemy, and we are already at odds with each other. The sooner we get rid of him, the better." Huo Guang smiled lightly, "Yun'er, you said that Yun Ge was found from a farmer's house on the outskirts of Chang'an, do you know who imprisoned Yun Ge before?" Huo Yun's hand trembled suddenly, and the wine spilled all over his sleeves. Fortunately, Huo Shan ate a mouthful of venison in a hurry, his tongue was burned, and he yelled, attracting everyone's attention. Huo Yun took the opportunity to put down the wine glass, glanced at Huo Chengjun secretly, and said carelessly: "Is imprisoned? Didn't Liu Fuling arrange for Yunge to hide there?" "If it was arranged by Liu Fuling, why didn't we find the Imperial Seal soldier amulet? Why did the National Seal soldier amulet end up in Liu Xun's hands? Meng Jue said that Yun Ge was imprisoned in the cold palace before." Both Huo Yun and Huo Yu screamed "ah", their faces were full of surprise and disbelief.Huo Yu sighed bitterly: "It's right under our noses!" "We all underestimated Liu Xun. This emperor... is really difficult to deal with." Huo Guang sighed softly, "He wants Meng Jue to be his knife, but Meng Jue is not a friendly person either. The knife refused to stab me according to his will." When Huo Guang spoke, Huo Yun's expression was uncertain, and he glanced at Huo Chengjun several times, but Huo Chengjun just lowered his head and sat quietly, calmly. Huo Yun restrained his emotions, and sat down with his eyes down, his face was covered with a thick layer of frost. People who didn't know thought he was angry at being teased by Liu Xun. Huo Shan spit out the ice water he rinsed his mouth with, and hurriedly asked, "So, Meng Jue is not our enemy anymore?" Huo Yu said with a cold face: "It's an enemy, but an enemy that needs to be won over. It's best to let his blade point at the emperor, and it's not necessary to force him and the emperor to join forces to deal with us." Although he understood the reason, he couldn't swallow his anger. While Huo Yu was talking, he slammed the jug in front of him out of the window. Huo Guang nodded when he heard what Huo Yu said, but frowned when he saw his movements.He looked sideways at Huo Chengjun who had been silent all this time, "Chengjun, what do you think?" Huo Chengjun raised his head and smiled, "Father and elder brother's words are very reasonable. I'm just a little worried about that girl Yunge. Daddy wasn't there at the time, so I didn't pay attention to it. But I saw her eyes with my own eyes. Even thinking about it now, it's chilling." Gu, I always feel that keeping her is a disaster." The less people know about Yun Ge's dragon son, the better, so Huo Guang didn't tell others.The three of Huo Yu couldn't understand their conversation, but seeing that Huo Guang didn't intend to explain, the three of them didn't dare to ask. Huo Guang knew what Chengjun said was right, it would be absolutely unwise to keep an enemy who hated you deeply.But at present, Meng Jue and Liu Xun are both protecting Yunge's life, it is difficult to touch Yunge again, so we can only talk about it later. "The most important thing at the moment is to deal with the emperor well. The new emperor ascends the throne, and officials will inevitably be appointed and dismissed. Now he is about to mobilize troops in Guanzhong and the Western Regions. If he is not careful, the military power in Guanzhong will be taken back by the emperor. We will talk about Yunge later. Cheng Jun, the most important thing for you now is to prepare for entering the palace. Unlike Liu Fuling, Liu Xun is a man who behaves normally. He should be able to choose concubines and use the power of the harem to influence the court. The burden on your shoulders is very heavy. Heavy." Huo Chengjun couldn't help frowning again, and nodded silently.In fact, the war between her and Liu Xun had already begun since she secretly replaced Yun Ge out of the cold palace.She didn't trust him, and he certainly wouldn't trust her either. After several people finished their meal, they prepared to go down the mountain and return to Chang'an. In addition to the handymen who opened the way, there were hundreds of guards guarding the front and back, and a group of people walked on the mountain way mightily.Huo Chengjun was sitting in a sedan chair covered with a red satin curtain.The three of Huo Yu rode the bloody BMW.When Huo Guang came, he was sitting in a sedan chair. When he returned, he suddenly became interested and ordered someone to find a horse with a green mane and ride on it. Although there are many people, they are well-trained, there is no noise, and the valley is quiet in winter, only the sound of horseshoes stepping on the mountain road. Anyway, he was walking with the team, and the horse was tame again, so there was no need to worry too much, Huo Shan had already dozed off on the horse. Suddenly, the people at the front of the line screamed, and the birds in the forest fluttered and screamed. Huo Shan's horse stopped abruptly, and Huo Shan was thrown off. He was about to yell, but saw that Huo Guang and the others had already dismounted. Huo Yu and Huo Yun drew their swords, intending to protect Huo Guang. Huo Guang's expression was very calm, and he ordered: "Don't worry about me, protect your sister." Huo Yu and Huo Yun hurriedly protected Huo Chengjun one after the other when they heard the words. Huo Shan was stunned for a while, and the word "assassin" popped out of his mind, and finally understood the situation. He hurriedly pulled out his knife and rushed to Huo Chengjun's side. The guards on the outside drew out their swords one after another, preparing to block the enemy, while the guards close to them changed their formation and formed several circles, protecting Huo Guang and the others. In the outermost circle, there are arrows and bows, ready to shoot at any time; in the innermost circle, everyone is holding bronze shields that are taller than a person, and they are placed on the ground, closely connected with each other, like a bronze castle; There are two circles of guards, some are wearing soft armor and are good at close combat, some are wearing heavy armor, and can use their bodies to block swords at any time. In front of Huo Guang and behind him stood a few people standing with their hands down. They were dressed like ordinary domestic slaves in the Huo Mansion, but their bulging temples showed extremely good internal skills. After everything was properly arranged, Huo Yun and Huo Shan calmed down. With such thorough protection, how could the assassin break through?They all hold knives and look out of the circle. Among the countless white knife shadows, a black whip was wandering freely, like a spirit snake spitting out letters, cunning and sharp, the end of the whip always found a way to find a gap in the densely covered blade, and penetrated into the knife holder's body A slight touch of the wrist was fleeting, but the person was already bitten by a poisonous snake, his entire arm was limp, and the knife fell to the ground. Seeing the guards being swept by the whip one by one, and the visitors gradually approaching, Huo Guang finally saw clearly that there were only two assassins! In front is a woman with a black veil covering her face.A black horse, dressed in black, rode the horse slowly, as if walking a horse.An ordinary horsewhip is no more than half a zhang, but the whip in her hand is three or four zhang long. She dances very beautifully, without any murderous look, but if the whip is touched, a guard will scream and throw away the knife. Behind the woman, followed by a snow-white horse, immediately sat a man, dressed in brocade and fur robes, with a golden crown and jade belt. Casting is lifelike, as if choosing someone to devour.The warm sunlight shone on the silver metal, emitting a cold and ruthless light, which made people feel chills in their hearts.A pair of dark eyes on the mask were as clear as cold stars, facing their numerous battles, showing indifference and indifference. From his appearance to now, there have been countless casualties on the ground, but he just sat on the horse and watched everything silently, as if he didn't care about not only their life and death, but also the life and death of the woman in front of him, he didn't care at all. Although Huo Yu has an arrogant personality, he was strictly trained by Huo Guang since he was a child, and he has personally experienced several bloody battles. He has never known what it is to be afraid, but this time his hands trembled a little, and he didn't care about the guards fighting against the black... The woman in clothes fought hard, so she raised her knife and ordered: "Shoot the arrow!" The outermost guards immediately shot out the bows and arrows that had already been set up. The woman in black swung the whip quickly, and the several-foot-long whip, like a whirlwind, swept away all the arrows close to her. The arrows they shot did not hurt the enemy, but killed all the guards who were besieging the woman in black outside. Huo Shan was short of breath and jumped on the horse, "Brother, I'll go out and meet her!" Just as Huo Guang wanted to reprimand him, he heard a loud neighing sound, accompanied by the echo of the valley, as if thousands of horses were neighing.The horse under Huo Shan suddenly arched its back and threw Huo Shan off, then bent its front hooves and knelt down on the ground. The two horses that Huo Yu and Huo Yun were riding also knelt down facing the man's white horse.However, although the green-maned horse that Huo Guang was riding did not kneel, he jumped left and right, extremely disturbed, and almost kicked several guards. The man's white horse was like examining his own courtiers. He glanced at the three sweat-blooded horses kneeling on the ground, planed their hooves in satisfaction, and raised their heads again. Then the three sweat-blooded horses stood up meekly, bowing their heads to their ears. , There is no longer the arrogance of "no horse in the eyes" before. With trembling hands, Huo Yu raised his knife and ordered again: "Let the arrows go." This time the arrows were denser than before, and several crossbows were used, so some arrows were so powerful that they pierced through the whip of the woman in black, forcing the woman to pull out the scimitar and shoot down the arrows. Seeing this, Huo Yu felt annoyed.If I had known earlier, I should have brought out a crossbow team from the Habayashi Camp. No matter how good her martial arts skills are, she would have to die under the arrows.But who would have expected it?It's just going to worship the ancestors outside Chang'an City, and it's not fighting. Such protection is rare. "Let the arrow!" "Let the arrow!" ... The woman in black struggled forward in the dense rain of arrows. She was in danger several times, but the man behind her still just followed her on horseback, watching with cold eyes, without any intention of helping. "Let it go..." Huo Yu's eyes suddenly widened. Just look at the man's white horse speeding up suddenly, like a silver lightning in the rain of arrows, it rushed towards them, all the arrows fell in the shadow of the cold sword that could cover the sky and the earth. When approaching the bronze shield, the white horse let out a long cry and jumped high, like a shooting star, leaping over the encirclement surrounded by guards, and landed firmly inside the encirclement.The bronze shield castle they thought was indestructible turned out to be useless. All the guards were in chaos immediately. There was a woman in black in front and this man behind. They didn't know who to stop. Several servants in front of Huo Guang shot at the same time.One jumped up lightly, wanting to attack the man, and the other cut off the horse's legs, trying to cut down the white horse. Without waiting for the man's order, the white horse avoided the attack lightly and deftly, and kicked its hind legs at the same time, giving the person who wanted to attack it a heavy comforting kick.Seeing that the white horse was in danger, the three bloody horses suddenly raised their hooves and ran away, kicking whoever they saw, preventing anyone who wanted to get close to the white horse.The green-maned horse also screamed and jumped, extremely disturbed, and wanted to escape.In the chaos, Huo Chengjun was almost kicked by a horse. Huo Shan and Huo Yun hurriedly tried their best to protect her and got into a ball with several horses. In the extreme chaos, the man's knife was as quiet as snowflakes dancing in the sky.As cold as snow, it can freeze everything, making people feel cold even in the blood; and as graceful as snow, it is everywhere, and every knife will fall on people's vitals. In fact, it was only a blink of an eye, but in Huo Guang's eyes, everything seemed to be in slow motion. The man's knife, arcing lightly, was shining like a star, floating like a cloud, and it seemed to be telling a beautiful encounter in the apricot blossom rain in the south of the Yangtze River. But all those who stood in front of him were mercilessly beheaded. In front of his blade, he was invincible, and several masters protecting Huo Guang were decapitated in an instant. Huo Yu's eyes were all red, and he shouted: "Protect the general." Countless guards rushed up like a tide, and amidst the shadows of swords, lights and swords overwhelming everyone, the man suddenly abandoned his horse and flew down from the horse, his movements were as silent as ghosts. Huo Guang seemed to hear everyone's screams, but it was too fast, so fast that he had no time to react, and a chill was already on his neck penetrating his heart. Everything, immediately, stands still. There was only one man wearing a silver wolf mask standing in front of Huo Guang. The knife in his hand rested on Huo Guang's neck. Huo Yu, Huo Shan, and Huo Yun's minds were blank. Huo Guang is an impossible god in their hearts. No matter what happens, he has a way to resolve it. How could Huo Guang be put on his neck with a knife? Huo Chengjun stayed there for a while before he came to his senses, and immediately shouted: "Everyone stop, back off!" In fact, she didn't need to say, all the people had already stopped moving, staring at the man and Huo Guang foolishly. She looked at the man, and said half respectfully and half threateningly: "The man under your sword is Da Sima, the great general of the big man. If you hurt him even half a point, it will humiliate the great man's national prestige. The big man will use all the strength of the whole country to kill you and your subordinates." Family. However, if you are willing to put down the knife, no matter whether you have grievances or requests, we will try our best to agree to you." Although Huo Guang's complexion was a little pale, he didn't panic at all. With a faint smile on his lips, he asked calmly, "I don't know which royal family in the Western Regions the young master is from? The bloody horse is as threatening as a winged horse, and it travels thousands of miles a day. It is the "Tianma" among horses. According to "Historical Records", there is a high mountain near Ershi City in Dawan Kingdom. There are wild horses on the mountain. They are running like flying, but the speed is too fast for humans to catch them. So the people of Dawan Kingdom thought One way is to put five-color mares under the mountain in the evening of spring, and the wild horses and the mares will give birth to sweat-blood horses. I sent 200,000 troops to Emperor Wu to ask for sweat-blood horses, and I got a thousand horses, which I regard as treasures. The excellence of the Khan Blood BMW comes from the precious blood of the wild horse. I passed it on to the Khan Blood BMW until now. Although it is a steed, it is no longer a real 'Sweat BMW'. Your white horse must be a Mustang horse. The descendants of the king. I have been to the Western Regions when I was young, but I have never had the chance to go to Dawan. I have never seen a real 'Bloody Horse', but I should thank you son for allowing me to see the majestic horse." Huo Guang was talking eloquently in front of the blade. If the scene in front of him was not so weird, the listeners would have thought he was talking about ancient times with his nephew.The man didn't move, just stood there without saying a word. Suddenly he heard the horse's hoof "get it", but he saw that it was a woman in black riding a horse.Because Huo Guang was in danger, everyone was frightened, and they didn't know when the woman in black would leave. The woman in black immediately replied: "Third young master, the five people who wanted to rescue the soldiers are dead." Huo Guang's complexion finally changed, his desire to procrastinate was completely seen through.He forced a smile, and asked straight to the point: "If the young master wants to kill me, the old man has already died. What do you want?" The man's voice was as indifferent as ice, "I want to see Yun Ge, the general ordered someone to bring her here, if she is unharmed, you are also unharmed." In half an hour, it was the original scheduled time for Yun Ge to kill, it seems that this person came here specially to save Yun Ge.After Huo Guang was stunned for a while, he relaxed instead.Originally suspected that this person would have something to do with Liu Xun, but unexpectedly came for Yun Ge, that's good!If this person is Liu Xun's ally, the Huo family will be in danger. Huo Chengjun wanted to open his mouth to tell the truth, but hesitated again.If the visitor knew that Yunge was no longer in their hands, would he easily give up on his father?The person under his knife is Da Sima, the great general of the big man. No matter what he asks, he can fulfill it. If he misses today, he will never have another chance. Huo Guang was a suspicious person, but it was strange that he believed the man who put the knife on his neck.The arrogance of this man's demeanor actually made him feel a little familiar, "Yun Ge's charges have long been withdrawn, and he has been released from prison, and now he is in the residence of Adviser Doctor Meng Jue." The man stared at him deeply, without saying a word, withdrew his knife, turned around, and got on his horse.A series of actions, smooth and flowing.In the blink of an eye, his men were already on the horse. There were still dozens of guards in cold armor holding knives around him, but he turned a blind eye to them and calmly rode his horse away. He came inexplicably and left inexplicably. The corpses on the ground made everyone feel terrified, as if it was just a game of his. Huo Shan yelled angrily, and threw the treasured sword in his hand at him. Huo Yu woke up like a dream, and immediately ordered: "Chasing and killing people! Chen Tian and Wang Zinu immediately go to Yulin Camp." The man turned his head when he heard the sound. Huo Shan's knife was in the air, whistling and hitting his face directly.Everyone thought that he would definitely be able to avoid it.Unexpectedly, the man didn't dodge or dodge, and let the knife hit the mask directly. "what!" There was a hint of regret in the exclamation of many people, but before the exclamation was over, it became stunned. Seeing that the silver wolf mask was torn from it, the man was not injured at all. Obviously he did this on purpose. Under the hideous mask, there was an unusually cool and handsome face. The man's eyes paused on Huo Guang's face, and he turned his head back. But for a moment. A white horse and a black horse quickly disappeared into the forest. The moment he saw the man's face clearly, Huo Guangru was struck by lightning, his eyes went dark, and he fell straight to the ground. Huo Yun quickly supported him, "Uncle, Uncle..." Huo Yu, Huo Shan, and Huo Chengjun immediately surrounded them. "Daddy, daddy!" "Uncle, Uncle!" Amidst the yelling and yelling, several servants gave Huo Guang Shun Qi and burned wormwood for Huo Guang to smell. Huo Guang's breath was slightly smooth, but he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, he seemed to be in a daze, and seemed to be thinking.After a while, he ordered Huo Yu: "Don't chase that person anymore, and don't mention today's incident to anyone." After thinking for a while, he ordered: "After returning, arrange all today's guards to join the army in the frontier. " Although Huo Yu was puzzled, he didn't dare to ask questions, and could only answer "yes" repeatedly. Yun Ge is the most obedient and indifferent patient I have ever met in March. No matter how bitter the medicine is, as long as it is brought to her, she will definitely drink it up in one gulp, and no matter how painful the acupuncture is, she can bear it without frowning. However, on other matters, no matter how much thought she spent, she turned a blind eye. She is cold to everyone.That kind of indifference is not condescending arrogance, but cautious vigilance. When Sanyue thinks of the pure smile in her eyes before, she will feel very sad, and finally can understand a little bit of the state of mind of a young master.Even she, a bystander, was like this. I am afraid that the feeling in the heart of the person involved cannot be explained by the word "sad". It gets dark early in winter, so dinner is also served early. Sanyue served Yunge after finishing the meal, packed the tableware and came out, but saw two people standing in the yard in the pale blue light, a woman with a black veil covering her face, and a man standing against the light. Sanyue thinks her martial arts are not weak, but when these two people entered the yard, and how long they stood there, she didn't realize it at all.What's more, where Yun Ge lived, the second and fifth senior brothers took turns to lead people to guard them, and these two people were able to stand in the courtyard without disturbing anyone. She took a step back cautiously, and slammed the tableware to the ground, "Come on!" The man seemed a little impatient, and strode towards the house. Sanyue wanted to stop her, but a whip came suddenly, and the tail of the whip blocked all her way.She saw the man entering the house, and heard Yun Ge's screams from inside, she was so anxious that she wanted to cry.If Yun Ge had another accident, how would she explain it to the young master? Seeing her appearance, the woman in black said softly, "I've been following you since you were preparing dinner. I can see that you have taken great care of my young lady. Thank you!" Following her words, the whip in her hand gradually slowed down, Sanyue was in a daze for a moment, and finally understood the meaning of the woman's words, "Yun Ge is your lady?" August and September rushed in, saw that March was being attacked, and attacked the woman in black left and right without saying a word.A move is a killer move, San Yue was horrified, and shouted to the woman in black: "Be careful!" Meng Jue, who had just stepped into the courtyard, called out, "Miss Zhu, be merciful!" The scimitar in Azhu's sleeve was retracted, and the person flew away obliquely, Sanyue blocked August's sword move for her, and Jiuyue's double thorns were smashed to the ground by a piece of jade pendant thrown over by Meng Jue in a hurry. Azhu bowed to Meng Jue, "I've seen Mr. Meng." Meng Jue saluted back, "I haven't seen you for many years, how are you doing? When will you be in Chang'an?" "Very good. Just arrived at noon." Meng Jue looked towards the room, "Is Yao here too?" Azhu explained: "The notice that Yun Ge was going to be beheaded was posted in Dunhuang County, and the insider immediately rushed to inform the third young master. It's not that we don't trust Mr. Meng, it's really brother and sister, there is no way not to worry, please Forgive me, Young Master Meng." Meng Jue looked gloomy, and bowed to A Zhu, "How dare you blame her? I promised to take care of her in front of Yun Ge's parents back then, but I don't want to take care of her like this. I should apologize to you." Ah Zhu sideways avoided, and said gently: "I believe that the young master has tried his best, but...my young master's temper, I hope that the young master will not take it to heart for Yun Ge'er's sake." Meng Jue nodded. "We just arrived in Chang'an, and we still don't know what happened. What did Yun Ge do to be beheaded?" Meng Jue didn't answer, and after a long while, he said, "If Yun Ge wants to tell you, she will tell you herself." He hesitated for a while, then walked towards the house, and when he reached the door, he didn't go any further. In the past few days, Yun Ge, who was like a puppet, finally gained some popularity. He sat down with his head bowed, and tears dripped onto the quilt one by one.The man sitting on the side of the couch stared at Yunge, his brows were deeply furrowed, and he seemed very angry. Of the two brothers and sisters, one just sat and the other just wept, and they didn't say a word for a long time. With the man's reticence, he finally couldn't take it anymore, "Yun Ge'er, are you dumb? I asked who bullied you, why didn't you say a word? Where did so many tears come from?" Yun Ge still just shed tears in silence. Yun Ge has been a talker since she was a child, she can mutter to herself for a long time when no one pays attention to her, how many times have she ever been silent?The man felt distressed and depressed at the same time. For the first time in his life, he softened his voice and said, "Whoever bullied you, you tell brother, and I will help you avenge those who have grudges, and resolve those who have grievances, okay? We've dealt with them." , I will take you home, I will help you find whatever you want, and I will accompany you wherever you want to play." Unexpectedly, not only did Yun Ge's tears not stop, but she threw herself into his arms and burst into tears. The third brother was a little at a loss, Yun Ge'er only behaved like this in front of the second brother, he was always stubborn and mischievous in front of him, his body was stiff, as if he didn't know what to do at all, after a while, he followed the example of the second brother and patted He was holding Yun Ge's back, but he was not used to it, and the expression on his face was very strange. He looked at Meng Jue who was standing at the door. Meng Jue clasped his fists in a salute, but he only slightly raised the corners of his lips, his eyes full of disdainful sarcasm. Meng Jue smiled lightly, as if calm and composed, but actually her whole body was on guard, as long as Yun Ge's finger pointed at him, the next moment would definitely be her third brother's blade. Yun Ge cried for a while, slowly stopped the tears, leaned on the third brother's shoulder and asked, "I thought you didn't want me anymore! Where's the father? Where's the mother? Where's the second brother? Why don't you come to see me?" If the third brother can arrive earlier, maybe everything... As Yun Ge spoke, there were tears in his eyes again. Does this girl regard beheading as a family reunion?The third brother frowned slightly, but did not answer. Azhu replied: "Master and Madam don't know yet, when they came back from Tubo last year, they passed Daban Mountain and encountered an avalanche..." "What?" Yun Ge was like a frightened bird now, his face would turn pale with a little stimulation. A Zhu hurriedly said: "Master and Madam's lives are safe, but they are trapped in the valley and cannot get out for a while. I'm afraid we will have to wait until spring, when the snow melts, before we can manage to get out." "That, that..." "Miss, don't worry, the third young master will prepare the food and clothes, and Diao'er will bring everything into the valley." The third brother frowned and said, "Don't worry about it! I see that my father regarded it as a fairy house outside the world, and even ordered me to bring a writing brush and Dashi's carpet in. He also specified that the writing brush should be made of sheep's neck hair, and the carpet In the shape of a big chrysanthemum." "Where's the second brother?" The third brother's face was a little ugly. As soon as Ah Zhu was about to speak, the third brother said impatiently: "You are the most stupid in the whole family! Second brother's matter, he will settle it himself, if it's too bad, and me, it's not your turn to worry about it, what about your matter? What is going on? If there is no important matter, we will return to the Western Regions immediately." Ah Zhu asked softly: "Miss, I think you look bad, are you sick?" Yun Ge was silent for a while, and said: "Third Brother, I will take care of my affairs by myself. I know there must be many important things waiting for you at home, so you and Ah Zhu go back first!" "You won't come home with me?" Yun Ge's eyes were filled with tears, "Not now, I will go back after I... finish some things." The third brother stared at Yunge for a while, then nodded.Although they are brothers and sisters, their lives only belong to themselves, and no one can replace another's life. The third brother said coldly: "Don't let me receive the notice that you are going to be beheaded again out of the blue next time!" Ah Zhu said softly: "The third young master immediately set out on the road as soon as he saw the notice. From the time he got the news to now, he has hardly had a rest." Arriving from the Western Regions to Chang'an within three days, even the bloody horses of the gods will be tired!What's more, the third brother's health is not good.Ever since she gave birth, Yun Ge felt that her heart was frozen, even the blood in her veins was cold, but now she feels that no matter what happens, there is always a small corner that will be warm, so she really wants to shrink back to that warm place. Go in the corner, but, thinking of the child... If he is alive, there will be an uncle who loves him; there will be a martial arts expert A Zhu to play with him; there will be a mother who can cook, she will make him the most delicious food in the world, and she will take him to climb Tianshan, go to Turpan to eat grapes... But, no more!nothing left!He didn't see anything, and was brutally taken away! Yun Ge looked up at Meng Jue. Meng Jue smiled calmly, covering all her emotions. The cold light in Yun Ge's eyes pierced into his jet-black eyes, and was quickly swallowed up, unexpectedly it couldn't arouse any shock. The third brother suddenly said: "Yun Ge'er, I will arrange another place for you." Yun Ge was a little puzzled, did the third brother's influence extend to Chang'an?But didn't the father not allow them to step into the territory of the Han Dynasty?But being able to leave the Meng Mansion is by no means a bad thing, Yun Ge nodded. The third brother picked up Yun Ge without saying a word, and went to the layman.Meng Jue stepped aside, Sanyue wanted to speak, but was stopped by Meng Jue's eyes. Since these days, I have never felt at ease.Yun Ge nestled in his elder brother's arms, sleeping deeply, feeling in a daze that the horse was climbing a mountain, opened his eyes and saw that he was indeed on the mountain path. After walking for a while, Yun Ge saw that there were many tombstones around, and couldn't help asking, "Third brother, where is this?" "Didn't you keep asking when you were a child, there is a second brother, there is a third brother, why is there no eldest brother?" "Well, but my parents are always unwilling to answer. Every time I ask, my mother looks sad and blames herself. The second brother later told me not to make my mother sad again. When I grow up, he will tell me .” The third brother reined in the horse and stopped in front of a magnificent mausoleum. He jumped off the horse with Yun Ge in his arms, and said lightly, "This is the eldest brother." Yun Ge let out an "ah", because she had already guessed that her elder brother was dead when she was a child, so she was more surprised than sad.The tomb of the eldest brother is actually in the Han Dynasty! She took a few steps forward and carefully read the words on the tombstone: "Ai Hou Huo Shan".There are also several rows of small characters engraved on the side of the tombstone: "Jiayoulan is beautiful, mushroom monsters are lewd. Hua Feifei is beautiful, the wind is wandering and fragrant. The emperor has no wisdom, and the dead is like a fairyland. The road is far away. There is no time, and I don’t feel the tears coming down and staining my clothes." The inscription is engraved: "Sifeng Chezi Hou Ge Xiaowu Emperor Liu Che". Yun Ge didn't feel anything when he saw the previous poem, but when he saw the signature of "Emperor Xiaowu Liu Che", he was shocked, who is the elder brother?Emperor Wu would actually "unconsciously drip down his clothes with tears" because of his departure. Yun Ge just wanted to ask, but saw the third brother kneeling in front of the grave, kowtowing three times respectfully.Seeing that the always arrogant and indifferent third brother was so respectful, she quickly knelt down and kowtowed to the mausoleum, "Brother, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were also in Chang'an, so I came to salute you now." After the third brother saluted, he stood up. Yun Ge asked, "It turns out that the second brother's Huo is not his first name, but his surname. Both the eldest brother and the second brother have the surname Huo, and we both have the surname Huo, right? I always thought that we Like the Huns, they don’t have a surname. Marquis Ai? How could my elder brother be the Marquis of the Han Dynasty? Why didn’t my parents move the tomb of my elder brother? I left my elder brother here alone, so lonely.” The third brother didn't answer, but looked towards the side of the mausoleum, and said in a cold voice, "Lord Huo has been listening to it for a long time, and the doubts in his mind should have been resolved." Huo Guang slowly walked out from the pine forest, his complexion was strangely pale. Huo Shan?Huo Guang?Yun Ge's heart trembled, as if he understood something, he was still ill, and when his body went limp, he fell to the ground, and Ah Zhu hurriedly hugged her. Huo Guang carefully examined the face of the third brother, and after a while, he seemed to have confirmed everything, "What's your name?" "Huo Yao." Huo Guang nodded with a smile, "The sun, the moon, and the stars are the stars, and the seven stars of the sky and the earth are the stars, like the name given by the eldest brother." When he looked at Yun Ge, his smile was a bit forced, "Yun Ge is the youngest daughter of the eldest brother?" "Father's old daughter." Huo Yao, who has never talked much, added on purpose, "The most precious one in our family." "Brother, he...he..." Huo Guang's face became paler, and he couldn't say a complete sentence. "My father and mother are very good. Master Huo probably doesn't like my staying in Chang'an for a long time, I will leave Chang'an immediately, but Yun Ge still wants to play in Chang'an for a while, so I will entrust her to Master Huo." Huo Guang was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, Huo Yao raised his eyebrows slightly, stepped back, and protected Yun Ge, with a sneer on his lips, "What a master Huo!" After a while, Huo Guang heard the sound of rinsing around the mausoleum. Huo Guang hurriedly said: "It's not my order." Then he raised his voice and ordered: "Who is it? Come out and see me immediately!" I just saw Huo Chengjun coming on horseback, "Father, my daughter saw that you were going out of the city alone and felt worried, so she followed her secretly. My daughter has already ordered people to surround this place, but why are you..." Huo Chengjun couldn't figure it out. How could the cautious father get so close to the assassin, isn't he afraid of being held hostage again? Huo Guang shouted: "Cheng Jun, order everyone to stand down, come here, Dad has something to tell you." Huo Chengjun hesitated for a while, jumped off the horse, walked slowly to Huo Guang's side, looked at Huo Guang in surprise, then at Yun Ge and the others. Huo Guang pointed to Huo Yao and Yun Ge, and said in a difficult voice, "Those are your brother and sister, you go over and salute them." Huo Chengjun's eyes were wide open, his mouth was round, and his face was full of shock. Yun Ge suddenly turned his head, bit his lip tightly, and trembled non-stop. Huo Guang said to Huo Yao: "The ancestral hall where the ancestors are enshrined is not far away. Since you are here, go and offer incense to the ancestors! I don't know if there will be a next time." Huo Yao thought for a moment, then nodded. Huo Yao took Yun Ge to kowtow and offer incense in front of the tablets of Huo's ancestors.When walking in front of the tablet of "Huo Qubing", Huo Yao saw that the incense ash in the censer in front of the tablet was very thick, but the censer was spotless, and the condensation in his eyes could not help but lighten a bit. Yun Ge stared blankly at the tablet of "Huo Qubing" for a while, and murmured, "This is Daddy's real name, I've heard of this name before." Huo Guang said to Huo Yao: "Don't worry about returning to the Western Regions. I will take care of her with all my heart for a day when Yun Ge is in Chang'an." Huo Yao clasped his hands together, and finally said, "Thank you for your trouble, Uncle." Huo Guang looked at his face similar to that of his elder brother, his eyes were sore, and suddenly he felt that many cares, anger, puzzles, and worries were not important.Isn't the regret of so many years the inexplicable sudden death of the elder brother and the suicide of the sister-in-law?Isn't it the eldest brother's no heir? After offering incense, Huo Guang asked Huo Yao to sit beside him and asked about everything about his eldest brother and sister-in-law. Huo Guang's mood was agitated, and he wished that Huo Yao could tell him everything in detail, but Huo Yao didn't like to talk, and he was cold-hearted. Huo Guang asked ten questions, and he answered in just a few words. Huo Guang was anxious to hear this, but there was nothing he could do. Seeing this, Azhu said, "What Master Huo wants to know, you can ask Yun Geer slowly in the future, Yun Geer is a talker, she can talk about a small matter for a day." Huo Guang glanced at Yun Ge who was sitting huddled in a corner, and then at Cheng Jun who was huddled in another corner. He felt a stiff smile on his face, and he laughed twice to cover up his embarrassment. Huo Guang thought of Huo Yao's wanderings in the Western Regions all year round, and his heart moved. He wanted to open his mouth to ask, but he couldn't speak for a long time. He only felt that the name was so precious that he couldn't speak. Seeing that he was fine, Huo Yao got up and wanted to leave. Huo Guang was in a hurry and couldn't help blurting out, "Yao'er, have you heard of Feng Shi?" Huo Yao's face was cold, he only nodded slightly, and said nothing more. Huo Guang wanted to ask, but didn't know where to start.The fleeting time is in a hurry, how many years have passed?Dazed for a while, sighed, and waved his hands, "You brothers and sisters still have a lot to say, I won't delay you, go and say goodbye to Yun Ge!" Huo Yao nodded slightly, and walked towards Yun Ge. Huo Guang took all his emotions into his heart, and his usual calmness appeared on his face. Standing by the lamp, Azhu had a panoramic view of everything just now, and suddenly said: "How come people in the Western Regions don't know Mrs. Feng's name? Princess Jieyou joined forces with the Western Regions when the Han Dynasty was weak, to stop the Huns, Qiang nationality. She taught the culture and medicine of the Han people to all ethnic groups in the Western Regions, and used gentle means to make all ethnic groups in the Western Regions admire the Han Dynasty. These deeds are well known in the Western Regions, but at least half of her credit comes from Madam Feng. " Although Huo Guang didn't speak, his eyes darkened.After a while, he looked at Azhu carefully and said, "Your words are beyond the reach of ordinary people from the Western Regions." Ah Zhu's face was covered by a veil, so she couldn't see her expression clearly, but she went on to say: "I remember that many years ago, the master and madam had a relationship with Mrs. Feng. The master rarely praises people, but he once said that Mrs. Feng and Princess Jieyou are 'heroines'." Huo Guang was stunned, his eyes mixed with joy and sorrow, and he was a bit of a young man's twitch, and he murmured: "Brother...Brother, did he really praise them so much?" Azhu nodded. Huo Guang suddenly remembered something again, and asked with both joy and worry: "Brother was very famous back then, and she was extremely intelligent, can she guess the identity of Big Brother?" A Zhu said: "I don't know. Mrs. Feng may have guessed it, maybe she didn't." Huo Guang bowed his head and remained silent. A Zhu bowed quietly to Huo Guang, then backed away. Huo Yao sat beside Yun Ge, seeing Yun Ge's thin face, he was very distressed, and the person who didn't even want to say anything, asked repeatedly: "Yun Ge'er, are you really not going back with me?" Yun Ge stared blankly at the third brother. Huo Chengjun is her sister? !The person she hated was her sister? What should she do? ... Huo Yao took out something from his pocket and put it in Yun Singer. The tentacles were soft, Yun Ge looked down, tears welled up in his eyes, and fell down like a torrential rain. A pair of woman's earrings hung on the black hair rope.It's finally back in her hands since The Oath Under the Stars. Huo Yao originally wanted to make Yun Ge happy, but he didn't understand why he provoked his younger sister's tears again, and said with a bit of annoyance: "I remember you were crying and asking for this thing when you were young, but when you come out this time, see if your mother isn't here. I secretly brought it out for you, if I knew this, I wouldn’t..." Yun Ge held the hair rope tightly, choked up and said, "Thank you, third brother, really, thank you!" The hair rope in his hand was soft and moist, but Yun Ge's heart felt like it was stabbed by sharp ice, dripping with blood.She leaned on her brother's shoulder and said lowly but firmly, "I want to stay in Chang'an." Huo Yao glanced at Huo Chengjun and asked, "Do you want to stay in the Huo Mansion? If you don't like it, I'll find another place for you." Yun Ge rested her chin on her elder brother's shoulder, but fixed her eyes on Huo Chengjun, and said word for word: "I will live in Huo's residence." Huo Yao stroked Yun Ge's head and said very gently: "As long as you feel happy, do whatever you want. If you need help, just send someone to me. In this world, I only know that you are me. Sister, I don’t know anyone else. But remember, when you feel better, forget about Chang’an, go back to the Western Regions, and let’s ask the second elder brother to climb Tianshan together.” The third brother's rare gentleness reveals an understanding that seems to know everything. Yun Ge burst into tears and nodded while sobbing, but he knew in his heart that Tianshan is still the same, but people are different. When Yun Ge stopped crying, Huo Yao took her by the hand and walked up to Huo Guang, "Uncle, nephew, take your leave." Huo Guang stood up, "Be careful on the road. When you see your father, just... just..." The two brothers feared that they would never see each other again.The eldest brother should know everything he has done in these years, all words seem pale, Huo Guang smiled wryly, and said: "You can go back with peace of mind! I will take good care of Yun Ge." Huo Yao saluted Huo Guang, turned around and left. Yun Ge chased him to the door, watching Third Brother and A Zhu get on their horses and ride away. In the cold night, the third brother's back was getting farther and farther away, and Yun Ge felt that the only warmth in his heart was also getting farther and farther away. In the end, there was only a pair of earrings in his palm, which pierced his palm with pain. Huo Guang coughed a few times, cleared his throat and said, "Yun Ge, take care of yourself and don't stand in the wind. After a while, we will go home when the servants prepare the carriage." Yun Ge carefully hung the hair rope around his neck, stroked the pendant on it, and walked back into the house silently. Huo Chengjun, who had been silent all this time, slammed the hand stove in his arms to the ground, jumped up from the couch, and rushed out of the room in a hurry. Huo Guang shouted resolutely: "Chengjun!" There was a majesty and implicit warning in the voice that could not be violated. Huo Chengjun stopped at the door, couldn't see her expression, only watched the cold wind blowing, making her dress tremble.After a while, Huo Chengjun turned around slowly, stared at Yun Ge, and saluted, "Sister, forgive me, it's my sister who was rude."
