Chapter 42
In the afternoon, the sun moves west.

Dang Bingfu Jian was touched by Huo Qubing, and her breath soared into the sky.

To the southeast of Chang'an, in a city thousands of miles away, an old man slowly raised his head and looked at the sky.

He is wearing a blue headgear that looks like a lun scarf. He is in his sixties, but his eyes are vivid and deep, and he looks much younger than his actual age.

He has only an ordinary figure, with a fair complexion and a calm and introverted demeanor.

He walked out of the house, came to the courtyard, and looked at Chang'an from a distance.

He is Dong Zhongshu, a Confucian master, and he is only one step away from the mythical level of the real semi-saint.

Looking back, he has come a long way in his life.

Dedicating state policies to Liu Che back then promoted his Confucian practice and established his status.

But he still wants to do something, for the country, for Confucianism, and for himself.

The Spring and Autumn Period of China was actually a true age of mythology, where trends of thought burst forth, and it was a truly great world where a hundred schools of thought contended.Laozi, Confucius, Guiguzi, Zhuang Zhou, legalists, doctors, etc., people who make China proud, emerge in endlessly, countless.

Tracing back to their origin, these people and ideas that have amazed future generations all rushed to appear in that era.

Taoism, Confucianism, agriculture, Mohism and other schools contend for thousands of years.

The later exclusive respect for Confucianism is actually a retrogression of civilization and thought to some extent.

Later generations often say that Confucianism governs the country and the world, knowing Confucianism but not knowing anything other than Confucianism.

It's not that Confucianism is bad.

However, the Confucian system takes itself as the core and integrates divine power, monarchy, patriarchy, and husband power to form a system of imperial theology.

Later generations will find that everything you do is actually serving the imperial power...

Dong Zhongshu is one of the main promoters and beneficiaries of this Confucian system.

Because of his respect for Confucianism and his advice on ethics, he was recognized by Emperor Wu, and also recognized by Confucian students all over the world. He has achieved the status and practice of a master today.

But he still wants to do something more, to climb up to the supreme sub-sage of Confucianism, and even the realm of saints.

So he spent ten years of hard work, and once again asked his disciple Bai Yu to bring Bingfu Jian to Emperor Wu.

If this move is successful, it will not only further consolidate the status of Confucianism and overwhelm the military strategists, Dong Zhongshu may also make great strides forward.

Every military strategist who wants to enter the Military Palace and has a reputation through the ages will remember that the Military Palace system is defined and promoted by his master, and the influence generated invisibly, even the domain of the military family will be harvested by him.

This kind of influence will be passed down along with every famous general of the military family stationed in the military mansion.

It is one of Dong Zhongshu's means to recruit military strategists to endorse Confucianism.

However, things seem to have changed.

Dong Zhongshu could feel that he personally sacrificially sacrificed the Bingfu Jian, which consumed Nuo Da's painstaking efforts, and his breath was surging.

Among them, the most core energy mechanism is triggered by people, and this kind of fluctuation is possible.

"At present...someone can arouse the core energy of the military mansion slips, and the slips use the hand scrolls handed down by the sage Confucius as the background, and incorporate the artifacts and military scripts of Sun Wu and other military sages.

There is someone who can resonate with this energy...it is Wei Qing, no, I have sent his name to the Military Palace in advance..."

Dong Zhongshu looked at Chang'an from a distance, thoughtful.

----

Changan.

In the courtyard of the front hall of Zhang Qian's mansion, Huo Qubing is about to step out of the gate.

Bai Yu quickly caught up from behind, pushing the power of Confucianism, and said with Tian Xian in his mouth, "Soldiers are not thieves, and the ground is a prison!"

It means that you go as soon as you go, and return the brief book, otherwise you don't even think about leaving.

He used Confucianism to practice, the heaven and the earth cooperated, a force emerged from the void, and surrounded Huo Qubing from all directions.

The sharpness in Huo Qubing's body was sharpened, and a ray of military aura bloomed like a big gun, instantly piercing through the obstacles in front of him.

"Confucianism is really good at showing off, Master Dong's disciples are good at practicing."

Huo Qubing stepped forward, and with a bang, the entire Zhang Qian's mansion was shaken, the sound was extremely frightening.

His figure seemed to shrink into the void, and when he walked out with this step, he was ten feet away, completely getting rid of Bai Yu's painting as a prison.The space seems to have a quick movement on him, and he came to the door of the mansion like a wisp of smoke: "Marquis Bowang is hosting a banquet, and I won't do anything with you today."

Bai Yu's complexion changed again.

He has made his mark in the field of Confucianism.

Confucian practice requires "studying hard" at the beginning, and "sea of ​​learning" is transformed from a "mountain of books". This triple realm is divided into different small realms.

Confucianism does not cultivate the body, so there is no need to practice all the lower nine realms. When the body is opened, one can receive the energy of the heaven and the earth and display supernatural powers, that is, one has stepped into the realm of heaven and man.

At a young age, Bai Yu has crossed the sea of ​​learning and become a real "student".

The most intuitive manifestation of Confucian supernatural powers is to mobilize the power of heaven and earth with words and pens.

What Bai Yu didn't expect was that Huo Qubing, the military master who was the most difficult to practice in the previous stage and had many obstacles, would be easily shaken off by him.

"I'll take this military mansion brief back to have a look, and I'll return it later."

When Huo Qubing walked to the gate, his voice sounded far away.

Bai Yu took out a slip from his cuff, on which a Confucian supernatural power was sealed.

This Bingfu bamboo slip was written by Dong Zhongshu, and it was contrived to be dedicated to the emperor, so what if it was taken away by Huo Qubing?

However, before Bai Yu had time to start the tablet, he saw a servant getting off the carriage at the door.

It was Dong Xu, the emperor's close servant.

He saw Huo Qubing walking out, and said happily: "I went to the mansion to look for Huo Shizhong, and I learned that the servant came to Bowanghou Mansion, and he is indeed here."

"Your Majesty announces the servant to enter the palace."

Dong Xu said: "I personally received an oral order from His Majesty, and came to see Huo Shizhong, and do some activities by the way."

The two walked out of Zhang Qian's mansion while talking.

Bai Yu couldn't just stand there silently in front of His Majesty's attendants.

At this time, Zhang Qian and others also came out of the main hall and saw Huo Qubing and Dong Xu leaving together, they couldn't help thinking: Your Majesty suddenly issued an edict, what happened?

Liu Xiang, Liu Xi, Gongsun Jingsheng, Yao Zhao, Zhuo Huai and others also left the mansion, but they were planning to go to Huo Qubing's mansion to join in the fun.

In Zhang Qian's mansion, only Liu Qian, Liu Ling and a few people did not follow out.

Sitting behind the low seat, Liu Qian squinted at the direction Huo Qubing was leaving: "The military slips brought out by Mr. Dong's disciples were taken away by Huo Qubing. It seems to be something extraordinary?"

----

Huo Qubing followed Dong Xu all the way into the palace to meet Emperor Liu Che.

There was still a distance from the study when Liu Che's laughter was heard.

When Huo Qubing came in, he saw Liu Che in an imperial robe, sitting in the main seat, with broad shoulders and one hand pressed on the table, with a strong spirit of pointing the country.

In front of him is a map of the territory of the big man.

After he got down on the low seats on the left and right sides, Wei Qing and a thin and kind old man sat respectively.

This old man is called Zhang Ou, the word uncle, the youngest son of Han Gaozu Liu Bang's founding hero Anqiu Hou Zhang said.

Zhang Ou worked for the prince during the period of Emperor Wen, and he was ranked among the nine officials when he was Emperor Jing, and when Liu Che ascended the throne, he replaced Han Anguo as Yushi doctor during the Yuanshuo period.

Doctor Yu Shi ranks among the three princes, next to the prime minister, and is equivalent to the role of chief prosecutor and senior discipline inspection official.

At this time Zhang Ou had retired from the position of doctor censor, but he was still trusted by Emperor Wu and often came to walk in the palace.

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

After performing the ceremony, Huo Qubing sat on the back of the low mat, next to Wei Qing.

When the three people in the hall saw him coming in, they didn't speak, but their eyes all fell on him.

It was Liu Che who spoke first: "You left the city with nearly a thousand soldiers and horses three days ago, and went to the southwest. What did you do for two days before you came back?"

Huo Qubing said: "After leaving Chang'an, I passed through Wudu County all the way, and headed to the western border of our Han Dynasty. The command troops rushed along the way for training."

During the Han Dynasty, the border on the west line was closer to Chang'an.

Liu Che said with a smile, "Rushing fast? Let me ask you, when you ran, did you lead your troops to fight?"

"Fight, I always have a target for my attack. Go out of Wudu County and go to the barracks of the western frontier army to inquire. There are Di, Qiang and other foreign tribes relying on small groups of rangers to harass the border. I led troops to attack two foreign tribes. The cavalry team." Huo Qubing responded.

The Di tribe was the tribe that came out of Fu Jian later, and it was one of the root causes of the turmoil in the Wuhu chaos.

Liu Che laughed loudly: "Why didn't you report your merits when you came back?"

"The raid on the rangers of the foreign race was just a matter of military training. There are not many enemies wiped out, so it's not worth mentioning." Huo Qubing said.

"It's not worth mentioning. The two foreign rangers you broke, depending on the terrain and the convenience of coming and going, they often move. There are border villages that are unbearable. When the frontier troops leave, they will retreat, and the frontier troops will retreat. Come."

Liu Che said: "You have always led troops quickly and bravely. You are the nemesis of these rangers. You have done a good job. The frontier soldiers have reported to the table and sent them here urgently. I will know."

"You should be rewarded for this matter. I know that you have always wanted to join the army to fight. If so, I will allow you to officially take up the military post. First, I will confer on you... the post of Lieutenant Yao."

Plagiarizing Yao means vigorous and swift, and it fits well with Huo Qubing's way of leading troops.

A lieutenant is a mid- to high-ranking military post, second only to a general.

Lieutenant Yao...it's exactly the same. With this title, it probably means a war... Huo Qubing thought to himself.

He vaguely remembered that the Battle of North Dingxiang in history probably took place in April, but in history, the early and middle Western Han Dynasty used the October calendar, and the calendar in this world was changed early by Emperor Shihuang, so it should have happened in May and June.

It is now the beginning of April.
