my brother champion

Chapter 194 Invited by the Imperial Censor?Hey, shouldn't Zhang Anshi be cooking for you?
When the boy's voice sounded, everyone's gazes, at the same time, all looked over.

Besides Huo Guang, who else could be the boy who said this?

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty smiled at this moment and said, "Hehe, does Marquis Bo Lu have any ideas? Let's hear it!"

Seeing His Majesty's words, Huo Guang immediately said: "This King Zuoguli is just a little king of the Huns. Based on his status, there are very limited people who can gather in that area of ​​Mobei."

"If there is another Mobei war, it will be easy to eliminate this wave of people!"

"It's just that the gains outweigh the losses!"

"Instead of allowing them to develop on their own, it is better to let the court directly issue an order to canonize this Zuoguli King and make him a real Xiongnu Shanyu!"

"In this way, if he accepts it, it means that the Huns have surrendered to me!"

"If he doesn't accept it, the imperial court will send troops to beat him in the future, and he will be famous for his success!"

"Besides, after the Zuoguli King has gained a firm foothold, we will send the captured Hun Shanyu Yizhixie back to Mobei!"

"At that time, the two Chanyus will fight each other, and the infighting will begin. Whoever wins will be seriously injured in the end."

Huo Guang was talking eloquently, when the Prime Minister Li Cai stood up and said, "Your Majesty, what Bo Luhou said is unbelievable!"

The prime minister's voice was extremely harsh at this moment!
Emperor Wu of the Han raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "You can't believe it, why can't you believe it?"

Prime Minister Li Cai replied: "The Han army and the Huns fought back and forth for many years before they captured Yizhixie Da Shanyu. Now that we have this layer of bargaining chips in our hands, the Huns will not dare to plunder rashly. I am on the border of the Han Dynasty."

"If you put Yi Zhixie back, wouldn't that mean letting the tiger go back to the mountain?"

"Isn't the example of King Goujian of Yue trying his best to destroy Wu's husband's chastity not profound enough?"

After hearing these words.

Emperor Wu of Han also hesitated slightly.

At last.

Liu Che turned his gaze to Huo Guang again, and said, "Bo Luhou, do you have anything to refute what the prime minister said?"

Huo Guang immediately nodded and said: "Return to Your Majesty, I do have something to refute!"

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard it, he immediately became interested and said, "Since there are rebuttals, let's listen to them. I really want to know how you will refute the prime minister's point of view."

After Huo Guang heard the words, after thinking for a while, he said: "First of all, what Prime Minister Li said is that Gou Jian tried his best to destroy Wu's husband!"

"There is a problem with this classical exercise."

"What is Wu Guo?

"and also!"

"Your Majesty is the current hero, who has more than doubled the territory of our Han Dynasty."

"Is this comparable to Fu Chai, who was fatuous, licentious and immoral in the later period?"

"Second!"

"Goujian is trying his guts, but we don't give Yi Zhi his guts. Even if it is a tiger, so what, we let it out, not to let the tiger go back to the mountain, but to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."

"This is the essential difference!"

"Besides, what is a tiger? Your Majesty is the real Dragon Emperor!"

"Could it be that, in the eyes of Prime Minister Li, His Majesty is still afraid that this so-called subordinate will fail?"

After Huo Guang finished speaking, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was overjoyed.

Everyone likes to be praised.

People like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty prefer it.

of course.

For the emperor, what the courtiers say is not boasting, but praise!

Anyway, under Huo Guang's flattery, Liu Che was very useful, and immediately said: "Look, although Bo Luhou is young, he speaks better than you all!"

"That Yi Zhixie is just my defeated general, let him go back, what are you afraid of!"

"Humph."

"Since I can defeat him once, I can defeat him a second time and a third time!"

"With the Great General Da Sima Weiqing and Hussar General Da Sima Huo Qubing here, will I still be afraid of the little Xiongnu?"

"What a joke."

"Prime Minister Li, what do you think?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty finally turned his attention to Prime Minister Li Cai, and his words were full of sarcasm.

Prime Minister Li Cai has become less and less favored in His Majesty's eyes recently.

It's not that he's doing badly.

It's Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who likes new things.Li Cai is old, so he tends to be more traditional and pedantic in his work.

Being pedantic doesn't really bother you.

But the problem is that Li Cai cannot judge the situation and perceive His Majesty's intentions.

Then there is a problem.

At this moment when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked him, Li Cai still said: "Your Majesty, the old minister didn't mean what Marquis Bo Lu said, but just wanted to advise Your Majesty with the example of trying to be brave."

However, Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, waved his hand and said, "Just say, do you agree with Bo Luhou's idea?"

Prime Minister Li Cai continued: "The old minister opposes Bo Luhou's idea!"

In an instant.

Emperor Wu of the Han's complexion turned darker.

Simply.

He didn't care about Prime Minister Li, but looked at the three sitting next to the prime minister, Yushi Dafu Zhang Tang, General Da Sima Weiqing, Hussar General Da Sima Huo Qubing, and asked: "Zhang Tang, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, What do you three think?"

Sangong, it stands to reason that there are only three people.

But there was an extra hussar general, Da Sima, so it became four people ranked third.

At this time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked.

The three looked at each other, and finally, Zhang Tang took the lead in saying: "Your Majesty, old minister Zhang Tang, doesn't know much about military issues."

"But what Huo Yilang and Bo Luhou said is indeed the best way at present."

"For one thing, our Han Dynasty can weaken the power of the Huns without much effort."

"Secondly, after the Battle of Mobei, our economy also needs a period of time to recuperate."

"Thirdly, if this Zuogu Li king is smart and surrenders to my great man, my Han Dynasty will have another vassal state."

The battle in Mobei was about economic confrontation.

The Han Dynasty won is won.

But the price he paid was not small, and he might not be able to regain his vitality after a year or two.

If you go to war again at this time, it will seriously hurt the Han Dynasty itself.

After Zhang Tang's words.

Emperor Wu of the Han thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Zhang Yushi, please sit down first, Marquis Changping, Marquis Champion, where are you two?"

Wei Qing looked distressed, frowned and said: "Now the Huns are unable to go south, if we want to deal with them, Bo Luhou's suggestion should be the best way."

Huo Qubing was not as coy as Zhang Tang and Wei Qing, and said directly: "What Bo Luhou said, as an elder brother, I also think it makes sense."

"His Majesty!"

"You might as well let Marquis Bo Lu try it out. If something goes wrong, I will take responsibility for it!"

at this time.

Among the four of the three princes, three of them have already supported Huo Guang's opinion.

Even if the prime minister is the head of a hundred officials, his words will not be effective at this time.

Because the only one who can really make a decision is Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty smiled slightly at this moment, and said: "General Hussars, you really love your little brother. Hehe, come on, I also think what Bo Luhou said is right."

"Tomorrow, in the name of the imperial court, I will issue an imperial edict to King Zuoguli of the Xiongnu, naming him the Grand Chanyu of the Xiongnu."

"As for this Yizhixie!"

"Leave it to Bo Luhou. Anyway, he was the one who caught the person back. If he releases him, he should let him go back."

heard.

Huo Guang immediately said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

All the officials and generals at the palace banquet also echoed, "Your Majesty is wise."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che immediately beamed with joy, and said cheerfully, "That's all right, all right, today is not a court meeting, please come, and just eat and drink."

The words fall.

As soon as Emperor Wu of the Han waved his hand, the court musicians began to play music and beat drums again.

The court ladies and singers also began to dance for fun.

just.

In the following time, I never saw Mrs. Li's graceful figure again.

After the palace banquet was over, everyone was full, and the slow exit began again.

said earlier.

The palace banquet held by the ancient rulers is to understand the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers, and to strictly enforce the hierarchy.

and so.

Even leaving the stage must follow the etiquette in the palace.

Huo Guang knelt on his seat, watching the champion Hou in the front row leave the stage, full of envy in his heart.

The Sangongs of the Han Dynasty had always been the prime minister, Taiwei, and Yushi doctor in the early stage.

In the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Taiwei was vacant, and the post of Taiwei was replaced by Da Sima.

Therefore.

Da Sima became one of the official positions of the three princes, and because Hussar General and Grand General shared the position of Da Sima, the two were equivalent to official positions.

and so!
His champion brother, at the age of 21, not only managed to seal the wolf and live in Xuxu, but also ranked among the third males.

21 years old, ranked third!

Even with the eyes of a traverser like Huo Guang, he would feel that the cliff was opened.

Open or hang?

"Tsk tsk, I'm so envious!"

Huo Guang smacked his mouth, and when it was his turn to leave, he quickly got up and left.

After leaving the palace.

Huo Guang wanted to go straight back to the General's Mansion, but he didn't expect to be stopped by Zhang Tang.

I saw Zhang Tang said with a smile: "Why Bo Luhou came out so slowly, I made the old man wait for a long time!"

Huo Guang couldn't help curling his lips, and said: "Zhang Yushi is just joking, there are rules in this palace. As a doctor Yushi, of course you are going ahead fast."

"I'm the captain of the chariot, so I can't stand in line for a long time!"

"I want to come out sooner, but this Marquis has to obey the dignity!"

For Huo Guang's words, Zhang Tang didn't mind, just smiled lightly: "Huo Yilang must not be so tempered, the old man just said it casually."

Huo Guang raised his eyebrows, and said, "Ahem, this Marquis is Captain Fengche, not Yilang."

Zhang Tang immediately laughed, and said with a smile: "You are old, that's how it is, you can't change your mouth, don't blame Bo Luhou."

Huo Guang shrugged and said, "It's okay, you can call Zhang Gongai whatever you want, the younger generation doesn't mind."

Zhang Tang didn't continue to dwell on this topic, but said: "I heard that there are many dignitaries in Chang'an City who visit the general every day and want to introduce their daughters to you, but Bo Luhou doesn't like any of them?"

Huo Guang nodded, and said: "Oh, there is such a thing, why did Mr. Zhang ask this suddenly? Could it be that he also wants to marry me, Wei Huo?"

Zhang Tang smiled lightly and said, "It's not impossible!"

Huo Guang was amused when he heard this, and asked: "Mr. Zhang is making fun of me. Your family only has two sons. How can you get married? This Marquis doesn't have the habit of Longyang!"

The two sons of Zhang Tang's family.

One is Zhang Anshi, and the other is Zhang Anshi's elder brother Zhang He.

Zhang Tang waved his hand and said, "Why did Marquis Bo Lu go to Longyang? I don't have a daughter, but my younger brother has a niece, so I can marry you."

"Hehe, Mr. Zhang was joking. Benhou is still young, so he really doesn't think about marrying." Huo Guang heard this and quickly rejected Zhang Tang's offer.

Good guy.

This is really poor in the busy city and no one cares about it, but rich in the mountains and has distant relatives.

Even an honest and cruel official like Zhang Tang wanted to marry his niece to him!
What a headache.

Seeing being rejected by Huo Guang, Zhang Tang just smiled lightly and said: "The old man just mentioned it, if Bo Luhou disagrees, then forget it."

"but."

"There are two things that I really want to discuss with you."

two things?
Huo Guang raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked curiously: "Mr. Zhang is the imperial censor, and he ranks among the third lords. Is there anything you need to discuss with me?"

Zhang Tang laughed, and said: "Naturally, it has something to do with you, otherwise, what would the old man ask you to discuss?"

About yourself?
Huo Guang frowned slightly, not knowing what kind of medicine Zhang Tang, the censor doctor, was selling in the gourd, so he asked, "Since Mr. Zhang said it was related to me, then the Marquis would like to hear about it."

Zhang Tang shook his head and said, "This is not a place to talk."

Isn't this the place to talk?
After thinking for a while, Huo Guang said, "Then how about going to the Le Restaurant here? It's a restaurant I own, and I will never let others know what the two of us are talking about."

however.

Zhang Tang shook his head, and said, "I won't go to that filthy place!"

Hey?
What do you old man talk about!
Why is Benhou's restaurant such a filthy place?

Huo Guang wanted to scold people very much at this moment.

But Zhang Tang didn't give him this opportunity, and said again: "How about this, go to my house to discuss in the evening. At that time, I will ask An Shi to make two small dishes, and we will chat while eating."

Zhang Anshi cooking?
Good guy.

Anyway, he is also the son of Doctor Yushi, so he didn't expect to have to cook by himself.

Didn't it be agreed, the gentleman stays away from the kitchen!

Thinking of this, Huo Guang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Since Mr. Zhang invites you, then this Marquis will be disrespectful."

Done.

Huo Guang got into the sedan chair.

But this time.

But he found that Mr. Zhang was walking slowly behind.

Out of curiosity, Huo Guang opened the sedan chair curtain and asked, "Mr. Zhang, is he going back? Why don't you get a sedan chair?"

Zhang Tang sighed and said, "Bo Luhou was joking."

"You need four porters to carry your sedan chair."

"The old man's carriage has been in the house for more than 20 years, and he is reluctant to replace it with a new one. How can he afford four bearers to carry the sedan chair?"

heard.

Huo Guang also sighed helplessly.

sedan chair.

Compared with horse-drawn carriages, its labor cost is higher.

This is naturally overwhelming for an honest official like Zhang Tang.
If Jiang Chong hadn't been messing around in Chang'an City, there would still be a carriage for this soup.

It's a pity that the carriage is not allowed to run in the city now!
After thinking about it.

Huo Guang got off the sedan chair and said to Zhang Tang: "So, Mr. Zhang, you go back in Benhou's sedan chair first, and I'll be there later?"

Zhang Gong immediately refused: "How can this be done? This can't be done, can't be done, how can I sit in your sedan chair of Marquis Bo Lu."

Ok.

Say so.

But Zhang Tang got into Huo Guang's sedan chair unceremoniously.

Good guy.

Huo Guang was dumbfounded by this scene.

Why do you feel like you've been taken advantage of?

resignedly.

After the sedan chair carried Zhang Tang away, Huo Guang first walked back to the General's Mansion, and then rode out of the mansion on a big black horse in the evening, and rushed directly to Zhang Tang's mansion.

When he arrived at the gate of Zhang Tangna's mansion, Huo Guang could already smell the fragrance.

This An Shi cooks deliciously?
Rare!
After tying the reins on Dahei, Huo Guang went straight into Zhang Tang's house, but saw Zhang Anshi, shaking his head and reading a book in the yard.

"Eh? Brother Zhang, why are you here? Aren't you cooking inside?"
