Chapter 166 Prepare to Divide Fame ([-] subscriptions)
Liu Che thought about it again, the news he learned yesterday, and the 50 gold that followed was also Huo Shan's, his heart was blown away in an instant!
Originally, I was in a good mood after watching Er Shanyu, but this will disappear without a trace.

Liu Che flicked his sleeves and left straight away, out of sight!

Huo Shan followed behind, looking at Liu Che's back and secretly smiling.

Let you also experience what it feels like to watch others spend money lavishly!
After returning to the palace, Huo Shan went to the Jiaofang Hall, pickled himself and went back to the Qilin Hall. After eating and doing activities, he slept until dawn.

In the early morning of the next day, Huo Shan left the palace and went to the Marquis of Changping in a carriage!
The carriage drove directly into the mansion. Although he himself did not come to Changping Hou's mansion very often, once he entered the mansion, it was no different from his own home.

.........

"Zihou pays homage to his uncle and grandmother."

Huo Shan looked at the old woman in front of him, although she was still so graceful and elegant, but there were more and more wrinkles on her face, she looked much older than Wei Zifu.

Maybe it's because of worry.

Wei Qing, Cao Zong, the three little ones from the Wei family, and Huo Shan are all on the battlefield, how can we not be worried.

"Is Zihou really back?"

Pingyang looked at Huo Shan against the sun, and couldn't see clearly!

Huo Shan smiled and nodded:
"It's Zihou who is back!"

Pingyang smiled:

"The people in the mansion said you were here just now, I thought they were lying."

"The one who came back the night before was not only me, but also my three cousins ​​and Cao Zong. My uncle is still dealing with some follow-up matters in the Northland, and it will take some time.

I was at my uncle's place yesterday, so I didn't come to visit my uncle and grandmother. "

Pingyang breathed a sigh of relief, it's good that they are all back.

She grabbed Huo Shan's hand, pulled him to sit on the low couch in the room, and said with a smile on her face:

"It's good to come back safely. After returning from the battlefield, meeting His Majesty is the most important thing. Aunt and grandma are here."

Huo Shan smiled and nodded, then said as if offering a treasure:

"Maybe my great-aunt doesn't know that my victory in this battle is almost as good as my father's in his lifetime, and I also captured Shanyu."

Ping Yang gave a blank look and Huo Shan smiled and said:
"Aunt and grandma don't stay in the mansion every day and don't go out. These things have long been spread in Chang'an!"

Huo Shan laughed silly, Ping Yang touched Huo Shan's head and sighed:

"Zihou has grown up too!"

"Of course Zihou has grown up, my birthday will be in a few days, and I will be sixteen after my birthday.

Your Majesty is planning to make me Grand Sima, General Habayashi! "

Huo Shan puffed up his chest and said like a child.

Ping Yang was teased from ear to ear by Huo Shan.

Next, Huo Shan talked about some interesting things on the battlefield, which made Ping Yang very happy.

The main thing is about himself, and then there are some things about the three little ones of the Wei family and Cao Zong in the middle.

After talking for half a day, Huo Shan left after eating at noon.

Before leaving, Pingyang was still a little bit reluctant.

Huo Shan grew up under these people's knees, and he knows their temperament clearly. If he wants to make them happy, Huo Shan has a lot of ways.

After leaving Changping Houwei Mansion, Huo Shan went directly to Huo Mansion again. Of course, it was Huo Guang's Huo Mansion, not Champion Hou's Mansion.

.........

"Haha, I said why Your Majesty asked me to go home and wait today. It turns out that Zihou is back."

"Zihou pays respects to uncle."

Huo Guang stroked his beard and nodded with a smile, and Huo Shan also smiled.

Huo Guang really didn't know about Huo Shan's return.

Although he is Captain Fengche, he doesn't follow Liu Che every day.

Moreover, Liu Che in the palace had ordered not to leak the news of Huo Shan's return, so naturally no one would speak casually.

It can't be hidden for a long time, but it's not a problem to hide it for a few days.

Huo Guang's complexion is fairer, and he is already in his thirties now, and his beard is getting longer and longer. He is a veritable middle-aged handsome guy in this era. It would be great if he could be taller.

Huo Guang led Huo Shan to the study, sat down and looked at Huo Shan and asked:

"When did you come back?"

"Eve."

Huo Guang nodded:

"I said, why haven't I seen Du Zhou these two days, are you busy blocking your whereabouts?"

Huo Shan was taken aback, he really didn't know this.

"probably!"

Huo Guang nodded, raised his eyebrows suddenly, moved his head closer and asked:

"What official position is your Majesty going to seal you? How many household seals are you going to seal?"

"Great Sima, General Habayashi, only under the general and the prime minister, sealed 1 additional households."

Although Huo Guang had expected it in his heart, he couldn't help clicking his tongue at the moment:
"Add the original [-], that's [-] households, tsk tsk!"

"Zihou, you are already a lord of [-] households. Uncle, I am not even a Marquis of Guannei."

Although the Hou position at this time was due to "inflation", the current Wanhuhou is no longer as good as that in the early Han Dynasty.

For example, in the early Han Dynasty, Cao Shen's [-] and Zhang Liang's [-] were the apex of human officials.

But even if it is not as good as before, Wanhu is still a hurdle.

Among the new feudal princes of Emperor Wu's dynasty, none of them had more than ten thousand households except Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.

Moreover, ten thousand households has already reached the peak, and the closure of households and food cities exceeds ten thousand, which shows that you are already a person of great achievements.

The emperor will not easily close thousands of households. Once closed, smart officials will be able to realize the problem.

And Wei Qing used to keep his own place every day. Although it can't be said that he was trembling, he was also uncomfortable.

He knew that he had reached this point, so giving up power to Huo Qubing was the only way he had to go.

Huo Qubing weighed more in Liu Che's heart than Wei Qing's, and he was still young. A new generation replaced the old one.

Ever since Mount Tai was demolished and sealed off as a food town, Wei Qing's childhood has been much more enjoyable, and he would drink tea and chat with Liu Che from time to time.

The face hanging above the head is gone, and my heart is relaxed, and people naturally live a lot more comfortably.

And Huo Shan, he cannot be included in the scope, he is a variable.

His relationship with Liu Che, as well as his relationship with Huo Qubing, is much closer than that of Huo Qubing. It cannot be judged by common sense!

Anyone who wants to learn from Huo Shan can try it, Liu Che can pull out all his bones and crush them.

.........

"If uncle wants to make Hou Dangdang, I'll talk to His Majesty and divide you into five thousand households. There are only so few people left in our Huo family. I believe His Majesty will not refuse."

Huo Shan deliberately joked that he knew that Huo Guang had high ambitions.

Huo Guang's target has always been Huo Qubing, but he doesn't have the invincible ability of leading troops to fight like old Huo.

So his eyes were always on the position of prime minister and Liu Che.

Moreover, relying on his nephew to take the throne, he would not be willing to do such a thing.

Sure enough, Huo Guang waved his hands repeatedly and shook his head with a smile.

Huo Shan rolled his eyes, patted his chest and said:

"If uncle is not willing, then the next battle in the Western Regions, uncle can go with me, and my nephew promises to help uncle get a lieutenant."

Huo Guang was indeed a little moved, but he still shook his head, looked at Huo Shan and said with a smile:

"Zihou, stop teasing me. War is not my specialty. If you have another masterpiece like "Thousand Characters", don't forget to give uncle a hand."

Huo Shan pouted, war is not my specialty?
Huo Shan didn't believe it at all, if compared with Wei Huo, he really couldn't compare, but compared with people like Gongsun Ao, Huo Guang was much stronger than them.

If he really embarked on the road of martial arts, the Chinese famous generals are not sure, but a big Han famous general can't escape.

Huo Shan is also a little clearer in his mind, it is nothing more than uncle and nephew, one civil and one martial arts!

Although civil and military at this time are basically indistinguishable, there are still some differences.

"There are not many great works like "Thousand Characters", but my nephew is making something new recently, uncle can try it."

Huo Guang became interested: "Oh? What is it?"

Huo Shan smiled mysteriously: "Secret!"

Huo Guang shook his head with a smile, and tapped Huo Shan with his hand.

What Huo Shan was talking about was paper, and whoever hand this thing came out of, it is inevitable that it will become famous.

But this thing is naturally to be used on himself, and it is impossible to give it to others, not even his uncle.

But, when the paper comes out, shouldn’t there be corresponding words?
Official script works well on bamboo slips, but when it comes to writing on paper, it is better than smooth regular script.

Don't underestimate the influence of calligraphy in ancient times, it is very big!

The uncle and nephew have one in regular script and one in running script, so it's over!
Huo Shan prefers running script, while regular script is more effective, so it is more suitable for Huo Guang.

Then take out a few notes and give them to Huo Guang, first to make the twin stars of the Huo family famous for their prowess and martial arts!

Originally, these things were prepared by Huo Shan for himself.

But Huo Shan thought about it again, why do you need so much?Isn't fame enough?
Not to mention that after the war, he was already a man of the day, but with the spread of waterwheels and agricultural tools, there are definitely more people in the Han Dynasty who know the name of his champion, Huo Zihou, than Liu Che.

In his opinion, reputation is indeed of great benefit.

But Huo Shan is a person who is afraid of trouble, and his reputation is too great. Some people come to study, some people come to ask, should you teach or not?
If you teach it, you don't have that ability, if you don't teach it, people will suspect it.

Huo Shan didn't have the time to pretend to slap his face again and again, so he gave all these things to Huo Guang and let him deal with these scholars.

As for himself, with the "Thousand Characters" and the paper, he will come up with Yangming Xinxue in the future to help Confucianism set the tone and chart the course.

Coupled with his own reputation, the reputation of the Great Han God of War, it is inevitable that a generation of sages with both civil and military skills will be born in the future.

After chatting with Huo Guang for half a day in Huo's mansion, after dinner, in the evening, after making an appointment with Huo Guang to meet the champion Hou's mansion tomorrow, Huo Shan went back to his mansion quietly.

After a big victory, Huo Shan also wanted to return home with great fanfare, but thinking about those cattle and sheep, alas, there was no way.

Huo Shan originally thought that with his temperament and his previous style of doing things, if he could hide for a month, wouldn't that be easy?
But in just two days, Huo Shan already felt a little uncomfortable, feeling that he was bound.

This is the difference between voluntary and forced.

It's like some people who voluntarily stay at home and can stay for three years with food and drink, but they feel impatient after three days of being locked up at home.

But, there is no way, what should be hidden or what should be hidden!

Huo Shan made up his mind, and when the victory ceremony came, he had to hold it well, otherwise he would be sorry for his grievances in the following days.

It's funny to talk about it, how can I hide it when I come back from a big victory, alas!
.........

"My servant waits to pay my respects to my lord, my lord goes out to fight against the Huns, showing off my might, showing off my great man, showing off my champion, my servant waits to congratulate my lord!"

As soon as Huo Shan got off the carriage in the mansion, he heard people like Huo An and Huo Ping shouting!
"Hahahaha, well said, reward!"

Huo Shan waved his hand!
Ever since Huo Shan's first battle report came back, the subordinates of their champion Hou's mansion went out, which was praised by everyone.

Even some little princes are respectful when they see them!
And like Huo An, after going out, even those two thousand stones and Jiuqing were all smiling when they saw him.

All this is because of Huo Shan, they are honored.

And they are really happy for Huo Shan, Huo Shan treats them very, very well on weekdays, if you search all over Chang'an, there is no servant who treats them better than their champion Hou's mansion.

Not even in the palace!
Even if you don't mention these things, for the servants, the master's house is their heaven, and they are naturally happy for Huo Shan's great achievements!
Huo Shan chatted with everyone in the courtyard, and took out the few copper coins he picked up today from his pocket and gave them to the two children.

Then the crowd dispersed, and Huo Shan also walked into the main hall:

"Mr. Huo, sit down. You don't have to stand. If you have anything to do, just let Huo Ping do it!"

"promise."

Huo An replied and sat on the second seat, the first seat was still reserved.

Huo Ping was running around preparing to arrange meals, Huo Shan shouted after hearing this:
"You don't need to arrange it. I ate at my uncle's. If you haven't eaten, you can arrange some more. Just bring me some fruit and water."

"promise."

When the water came, Huo Shan glanced at Huo An and said:
"If you have any questions, Mr. Huo, just ask!"

Seeing his worried face, Huo Shan probably had some doubts in his heart.

"Why did the lord hide his whereabouts and enter the mansion, but..."

Huo An and the others had just received the news of Huo Shan's return to the mansion, and they were overjoyed. It wasn't until just now that Huo An realized it.

"Nothing, the main reason is to hide the news of my return to Chang'an from the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu have not paid some compensation. I am afraid that they will repay my debt after they find out that I have left Beidi.

I came back the day before yesterday, and I have been in the palace for the past two days, don't worry! "

After hearing Huo Shan's words, Huo An breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that Huo Shan had committed some crime and ran away, but this time he sneaked back!

"I'm afraid there are a lot of people giving gifts these days? Has the threshold of my Huo Mansion been leveled?"

Huo Shan made a joke, Huo An also smiled when he heard it, it was very complicated, both joyful and helpless.

"There are indeed a lot of them, and they come in endlessly every day. When the lord is not here, I didn't even open the door. I took all the gifts back, and those who ran away after throwing them away also sent them back."

Huo Shan nodded:
"It's right not to accept the gift. We have to do things after receiving the gift. We can't just accept the gift and do nothing!"

Huo An also nodded in agreement.

"They're all small households, right?"

"Exactly."

Huo Shan had already expected in his heart that the small family would not be able to make connections.

If Huo Shan was in the mansion, they would not accept the gifts they gave Huo Shan, they could only give them while Huo Shan was not around, and if they sent them out, they would win.

People don't worry about the door. When Huo Shan opens the door, they will send it off.

"No rush, no hurry, it will probably take another month, let's have a two-day birthday first."
