I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 226 Huo Guang broke his promise, and the old prime minister was mad at death (for subscription)
In Chang'an City and the entire Han Empire, the only mansion where Huo Guang, a great general, can visit in person is Yang Chang's prime minister's mansion.

With Huo Guang's arrival, the Prime Minister's Mansion, which had been silent for a long time, finally regained some vigor and vitality.

Ever since Yang Chang fell ill, the atmosphere in the prime minister's mansion has been getting worse day by day.

At the very beginning, the subordinates in the mansion fantasized that Yang Chang would recover from his illness.But not long after, they completely lost this extravagant hope.

But yesterday, when Yang Chang reported his announcement to the emperor, the depressed atmosphere reached its peak.

Once the emperor and the courtiers, this sentence makes sense in any government office.

Once Yang Chang becomes an official, he will naturally no longer be able to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

And those officials who are enjoying the shade and rain under the big tree of the prime minister will also lose their shelter in an instant, waiting for the new prime minister to "fall".

Especially those servants in the prime minister's mansion.

When Yang Chang was around, they were the most trusted; but when Yang Chang fell, they would be the first to be cleared out by the successor.

Everyone is in danger, how can the atmosphere in the mansion be any better?

The iron-clad general, the flowing prime minister.

After Emperor Xiaozhao ascended the throne, the prime ministers changed quite a lot, and each one stayed for a short time.

Yang Chang has been the prime minister for two years, Huo Guang has never visited him, the general came today as soon as the memorial to his official post was published yesterday.

People naturally knew why Huo Guang came here, even if they were displeased, they did not dare to neglect the slightest, and the officials took Huo Guang to the back house.

The female family members of Yang's house had already avoided in advance, only Yang Chang's eldest son Yang Zhong and youngest son Yang Yun were waiting in the courtyard. When they saw Huo Guang walking in, Yang Zhong immediately brought Yang Yun to greet him.

"Little nephew Yang Zhong greets the general."

"Little nephew Yang Yun greets the general."

"You don't need to be too polite, the old man has an order from the county magistrate here, take me to see your father."

Yang Zhong and Yang Yun looked at each other, seeming to hesitate.

"What's wrong?"

"My father fell ill again last night, and his appearance was terrible. I'm afraid it frightened the general."

"It's okay, the most important thing is to send the emperor's oral order."

"promise."

After Yang Zhong finished speaking, he took Huo Guang to the depths of the courtyard. After passing through several courtyard gates, Huo Guang came outside Yang Chang's dormitory.

As soon as he walked in, he smelled a strong smell of medicine.

A few months ago, Emperor Xiaozhao was seriously ill, and Huo Guang could always smell this smell when he was in Weiyang Palace.

Huo Guang frowned slightly, feeling a little displeased.

"General, my father is in the house."

"Well, I'll wait in."

After walking a few steps, Huo Guang came to the room, and saw Yang Chang lying on the bed at a glance.

No wonder Yang Zhong was hesitant just now, this Yang Chang's face is really a bit "ferocious".

His eyes are crooked and his mouth is slanted, his beard is scattered, saliva is flowing out of his mouth, and there is a whirring sound of phlegm in his throat. How can he have the majesty of the head of the hundred officials in the past.

After seeing Huo Guang coming in, Yang Chang who had closed his eyes opened slightly, and after a flash of light, his chest heaved violently.

In this dark and dark dormitory, the smell of medicine is even stronger.

And in the smell of medicine, there was even a trace of stench of feces and urine. Although it had been covered up by the smell of medicine a lot, Huo Guang could still smell it.

Huo Guang didn't move forward, but stopped two feet away from the bed.

Before coming, Huo Guang once suspected that Yang Chang was pretending to be sick, and wanted to win the emperor's sympathy, but seeing him today made Huo Guang dispel this idea.

Pretending to be sick is not enough to pretend. Since one is really sick, there is no more use for it.

Yang Chang is useless.

Seeing Huo Guang stop, Yang Zhong naturally guessed the reason, quickly brought a couch, put it behind Huo Guang, and hurriedly urged Yang Yun to open the door and window.

Huo Guang looked back at the couch that Yang Zhong had prepared for him, but he didn't sit down. The smell made him not want to stay longer.

"The county magistrate has an oral order."

Yang Zhong and Yang Yun bowed down immediately, and even Yang Chang, who was already immobile, moved, as if he wanted to get up.

But Yang Chang was almost running out of oil, and a slight movement made him cough again hastily.

"Duke Yang is seriously ill, so there is no need to be more polite, Your Majesty will not be offended." After appeasing Yang Chang, Huo Guang said to Yang Zhong and Yang Yun, "Get up without courtesy and take care of your father."

"promise!"

After the second son of the Yang family got up, he poured water and slapped his back. After a fuss, Yang Chang coughed out thick emerald-green phlegm, and his breathing became much calmer.

Huo Guang coughed twice, and indifferently read the emperor's oral order.

"Yang Chang, the Marquis of Anping, acted erratically, he owed my kindness, and even lost his manners in the court. I thought of his meritorious service, and he was able to go to the court. He still did not lose his courtier's demeanor. Therefore, he was not punished for his crimes. He was allowed to retire and become an official. He was also given a thousand pieces of gold and a thousand pieces of silk."

Huo Guang had finished reading the emperor's oral edict, but he would naturally issue another edict tomorrow, but it was absolutely impossible to change the result.

"Maybe Yang Gong heard clearly?"

Of course Yang Chang heard it clearly, he opened and closed his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he was speechless, even Yang Zhong and Yang Yun beside him didn't know what he wanted to say.

"Does Yang Gong want to thank you? If you are sick, Yang Gong doesn't need to be more polite." Huo Guang said with his hands behind his back, without the slightest pity or sympathy, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him-this thing really had nothing to do with him.

But Yang Chang didn't give up, his cloudy eyes fixed on Huo Guang, and his whole body tried desperately to sit up.

Yang Zhong and Yang Yun wanted to make Yang Chang lie back on the bed, but no matter how much they persuaded, Yang Chang, who was already unable to speak, refused to lie down, and several of them wrestled, and Yang Chang's face turned red.

That sallow and wrinkled face, like an overcooked shrimp, is getting redder and redder, so that some black can be seen.

Huo Guang naturally knew why Yang Chang was struggling so much, but he didn't intend to do anything.

"Mr. Yang, is there anything else you can't worry about?" Huo Guang asked coldly knowingly.

Yang Zhong and Yang Yun also came back to their senses, they suddenly realized that maybe Yang Chang had reached the last moment.

They also asked quickly: "Father, but what's going on at home, are you worried?"

Yang Chang struggled, lifted his bone-like hand tremblingly, and slowly stretched out two fingers.

He raised his hand with great difficulty, his eyes were still fixed on Huo Guang, with a hint of resentment.

"Father, do you mean that the reward of one thousand pieces of gold and one thousand horses of silk is too much to be rewarded?" Yang Zhong asked.

Yang Chang shook his head, the redness caused by holding his breath had spread to his neck.

"Is father worried about the emperor of Weiyang Palace and the queen mother of Changle Palace?" Yang Yun asked.

Yang Chang shook his head, the redness on his face gradually decreased, but the blackness became more and more.

"Is father thinking about the imperial court's expedition against the Huns in two months' time?"

As soon as Yang Zhong finished speaking, the two fingers Yang Chang stretched out trembled violently, and his arms suddenly relaxed.

After another sound in his throat, his eyes widened, and the slightly opened mouth only had the air to go out, but not the air to go in.

In an instant, the redness and blackness on his face faded away, and his whole body quickly became pale, lifeless.

Yang Chang, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, just left.

Yang Zhong and Yang Yun threw themselves on Yang Chang's body and burst into tears.

"My condolences to my nephew, I will fight for a posthumous title for Duke Yang."

After saying this, Huo Guang turned around and left.

What Yang Chang's two fingers represent, only Huo Guang knows.
