I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 322 Huo Xian: Husband, it’s time to get up and take medicine (please subscribe)

In the next few days, Chang'an became even calmer.

Even Weiyang Palace, which had always been busy, became deserted.

A cold wave suddenly swept across from the north, making the entire city of Chang'an even more chilly.

People are speculating about how long it will take before the first snow falls this year.

The sons and daughters of wealthy families want to see the snow scene, while the sons and daughters of traffickers are worried about their winter clothes.

Rich people like winter and poor people like summer, for their own reasons.

In the middle residence of the general's back house, Huo Guangzheng was alone in his bedroom reading various documents sent by Chen Wannian.

These documents are divided into two types.

Part of it is military affairs in the general's palace, and there is still no news from the northern front.

The other part is about some developments in Chang'an City - all collected by Huo Party members scattered in different government offices.

Through these Huo Dang scattered throughout the court, Huo Guang could still hear about many things in Chang'an City.

What bothered him the most was that the emperor appointed and dismissed many courtiers, but the rank of these courtiers was neither high nor low: the emperor did not touch important officials such as the three gongs and nine ministers.

It seems that he is still hesitating.

This can't help but make Huo Guang even more confused, and he can't guess what the emperor is thinking at all.

Three or five days have passed since the emperor issued the edict "to suspend court and dismiss government offices for the sake of the general."

In the past few days, the emperor would ask the imperial medical officer of the Shaofu to take his pulse. Let's not talk about whether this would help his condition, but at least it made Huo Guang calm down a little.

Huo Guang sighed in his heart as he read the documents one after another.

Putting aside the trace of resentment in his heart, the emperor actually handled the affairs in the court well in the past few days.

Local counties and counties submit accounting reports, county taxes and taxes are paid into the treasury, northern counties and cities are renovated, the repair of Chang'an City's culverts and official roads, and the renovation of high temples...

These things were all handled very properly.

The emperor seems to have learned how to be an emperor - he doesn't need to do everything himself, he just appoints the right officials and takes command from the center.

However, some of the things the emperor did made Huo Guang confused and even felt that they were irrational.

Pedestrians were forced to keep to the right, saying that this was in line with the etiquette of the Han people respecting the right. They built many toilets and even appointed dozens of toilet men. They sent people to collect the filth produced by the people and send them to The city is filled with...

Although these things are not a waste of people and money, they are also unprecedented and strange things.

The emperor's dark and thin face became increasingly blurry in Huo Guang's mind, to the point where he could no longer figure out what he looked like.

The emperor seems to really have the potential to be a wise king, so he doesn't need to worry too much.

Thinking of this, Huo Guang was both pleased and sad.

I am gratified that Emperor Xiaowu's descendants have the demeanor of a wise king, but I am sad that I don't seem to be that important to the Han Empire.

And now is not the time to be sentimental. Huo Guang now does not have to worry about the emperor, but to worry about himself.

How about going into the palace immediately, and then leading the ministers to write a memorial, respectfully asking Your Majesty to take charge of the government?
Can Huo Guang's current predicament be solved, can Huo Yu's life be saved, and can the emperor reconcile with the Huo family?
Huo Guang was not sure.

Moreover, he was willing to let the emperor personally govern, but he was unwilling to let go of the power in his hands.

Returning to Hedong to become a rich man was not Huo Guang's choice.

Not only because he couldn't rest assured about the power of the Han Dynasty, but also because he couldn't imagine a life without power completely.

The compliments of officials, the respect of relatives and relatives, the praise of the people all over the world, the temptation of being in charge of the great man...

It is as sweet as glutinous rice, and you can taste it by eating the marrow.

Once you taste the taste, how can you give up easily?

The emperor can take charge in advance, but it is not yet time to completely relinquish power.

As there were fewer and fewer official documents on the case, Huo Guang felt a little dizzy again.

At this time, he saw a distinctive piece of paper at the bottom of the official documents.

I picked it up and opened it curiously, and found that it was "Chang'an Monthly".

Unexpectedly, the emperor actually came up with this novel thing, and it was really vigorous and resolute.

There is no sun today, it is a cloudy day, and the doors and windows of the bedroom are tightly closed, so the light is very dark.Huo Guang used a copper skewer to pick the wick, making the big lamp shine brighter.

Then, facing the dancing lights, he read the "Chang'an Monthly".

The first thing that caught my eye was the article written by the emperor himself in "Models of Officials". The words were simple, but he did not hesitate to praise Huo Guang.

Unexpectedly, the emperor did not replace this article, but still made it public.

Huo Guang went through three dynasties and was praised and praised by the emperor countless times.

But after all, it all happened in the court, and it has never been spread throughout Chang'an in "black and white" like this time.

From today on, the people of Chang'an City will probably all know about Huo Guang's achievements.

This rice paper is really a wonderful thing. Without rice paper, there would be no such novel "Chang'an Monthly".

Does the fact that this article was published mean that the emperor was not so "unfeeling"?

Huo Guang didn't like reading, but for some reason, he found "Chang'an Monthly" very interesting and gradually read it.

The above article, no matter whether it is long or short, the words and sentences are very straightforward and simple.

Unlike those Fu written by Confucian scholars, it is not like the quotations from scriptures and complicated diction. After reading it, you will forget the previous part.

Not to mention the officials and ministers in the court, even the traffickers and lackeys could understand it immediately.

Moreover, these articles are also very interesting in nature. They contain a lot of experiences in the countryside, which temporarily freed Huo Guangdu from the heavy paperwork.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Huo Guang read the "Chang'an Monthly" from cover to cover.

When I put it down, I still felt that it was still unfinished.

It's a pity that we won't be able to see the second issue of "Chang'an Monthly" for another fifteen days. I don't know what interesting things I will see by then.

Huo Guang was a little surprised. After this moment of rest, his fatigue had dissipated a lot.

With just a few dozen pennies, you can buy this quarter of an hour of leisure, which is a good deal.

At this time, the bedroom door was gently pushed open, and Huo Xian walked in gracefully.

There was a colorful lacquer bowl on the table in her hand. There seemed to be something in the bowl, with wisps of white steam coming out.

Huo Guang immediately smelled a pungent smell of medicine. He couldn't help frowning and there was something strange in his throat.

Huo Xian walked over in small steps, saluted Zai Huo Guang, and said softly: "Husband, it's time to take medicine."

The medicine in the bowl was dark and translucent, and there seemed to be something vaguely like a cordyceps inside.

Huo Guang was a little repelled and did not reach out to pick it up immediately.

"I'm almost cured of my illness, so I don't need this medicine." Huo Guang said with an air of dignity.

"Husband, the doctor said that you must drink this decoction for a full month, no less than a day. Only in this way can you avoid the recurrence of stubborn diseases."

Huo Xian spoke very softly. Huo Guang's face was already a little loose, but he still didn't go to receive the medicine.

Unexpectedly, Huo Xian burst out laughing and asked rather delicately: "Aren't you afraid of drinking this bitter medicine?"

"How can I be afraid?" Huo Guang said seriously.

"Then the husband will drink this medicine and let me see how powerful my husband is as a general." Huo Xian smiled deliberately and used the method of stimulating the general.

In fact, Huo Guang was easily manipulated among the boudoir curtains, and at this moment, he was manipulated by Huo Xian - he quite enjoyed Huo Xian's flattery to him.

Huo Guang looked at the charming Huo Xian, and his eyes immediately became confused. If he hadn't recovered from his serious illness, he would have had fun in the boudoir tonight.

"Husband, don't you dare?" Huo Xian asked with a raised eyebrow.

"How could you not dare?" Huo Guang said seriously, then he picked up the bowl and drank the medicine in one breath.

The overflowing black liquid flowed from the corner of Huo Guang's mouth, and Huo Xian quickly wiped it away with a handkerchief. Unexpectedly, Huo Guang suddenly stretched out his hand and took Huo Xian into his arms.

Huo Xian didn't expect his husband to be so aggressive. He exclaimed in a low voice at first, but after seeing Huo Guang's confused eyes, he lay down in Huo Guang's arms obediently.

In this dark bedroom, spring suddenly appeared.

The two cuddled up together...
