In order to celebrate the victory of the returning champion General Hou Hussar, His Majesty expressed his favor to the young general without hesitation.

Not only did all court officials with a total of more than [-] shi in Chang'an be summoned to congratulate, but it was also arranged for Sima Xiangru to write a fu and arrange music by Yuefu. Ritual music played by meritorious service.

However, this young God of War who is the center of attention and favored by heaven is not at all happy.Not long after the emperor announced the banquet, Huo Qubing sat in his seat and drank sullenly.When other court officials came to toast, he didn't raise his head, didn't pay attention, and didn't talk to people, but just made his own decisions in silence.

Huo Qubing raised the wine bottle, slightly blocking his eyes, he looked at the place belonging to the general opposite, surrounded by people who were toasting.

Hmph, Chang'an order, hum.

Huo Qubing snorted.

Su Jian, heh.

Zhang Qian, heh.

Huo Qubing lowered his eyes, but the corners of his raised mouth were filled with coldness.

Always around uncle, young master, I haven't gone yet!Huo Qubing squinted his eyes slightly, this action was very much like his master Tianzi.Sure enough, like a teacher, there must be an apprentice, and he has been following Liu Che all year round, and he has also learned that when things go wrong, he must be prepared to make people feel comfortable.

Chang'an Ling, Zhang Qian and the others who were toasting Wei Qing felt a chill down their backs for no reason, thinking that the wind had blown in from outside the hall.It's not that they didn't see the emperor enjoying the theater and the hussar general opposite him with a gloomy expression of wanting to eat people, but seeing Huo Qubing's don't bother me, they can only take some detours to save the country. Congratulations to the general.

After all, their nephews and uncles are relatives, and it doesn't matter what they say to anyone. If they want to go home after the banquet and sleep peacefully, they still have to find a good-tempered Wei Qing.

This celebration banquet was spent with Liu Che half-smiling and Huo Qubing surly.Finally, after the banquet was over, Huo Qubing finally had a chance to speak to Wei Qing, but before he pulled up his sleeves, he heard Chuntuo's shrill voice behind him.

Huo Qubing felt an unknown fire in his heart.

"General, General Hussars, please stay."

Wei Qing and Huo Qubing turned their heads at the same time.

"What's the matter with Mr. Chun?" Wei Qing was the one who asked the question, Huo Qubing was pursing his lips and said nothing, but the displeasure in his eyes was like a sharp ice-blade knife stabbing Chuntuo.

"Your Majesty summoned General Hussars." Chun Tuo hurriedly bent down deeply, he had already heard the fists in General Hussars's hands squeaked, and the gaze staring at him was even colder.

Little ancestor, please let this old slave go.Neither you nor that ancestor are easy to provoke.Chuntuo broke out in a cold sweat.

After hearing this, Wei Qing patted Huo Qubing on the back, signaling Huo Qubing to go quickly.The emperor summoned urgently, not sure what important military affairs need to be discussed.

Huo Qubing turned his head to look at the meaning in Wei Qing's eyes, didn't say anything, just dimmed his dark and bright eyes, and then followed Chuntuo away.

……

The emperor has been busy with government affairs recently, and has been resting in the side hall of the Xuanshi Hall for several days.When Huo Qubing arrived, Liu Che was drinking warm wine and concentrating on the unfinished memorial.

Steady and powerful footsteps came slowly, and the wide black sleeves brushed against the vermilion gate of Xuanshi Hall.

"Chen Huo Qubing, see Your Majesty." Although he said this in his mouth, his movements were casual.Huo Qubing has stayed with the emperor since he was a child to study literature, Taoism and martial arts. Liu Che doted on him to the sky. Uncle was an old pedant with a youthful temperament.

"Qubing..." Liu Che pointed at Huo Qubing and bowed his head, "Come on, sit down and have another drink with me."

Huo Qubing secretly rolled his eyes, but still sat down obediently, took a sip from the wine bottle, and said directly: "Your Majesty asked me to come to drink with you, right?" That meant that if you have something to say quickly, When it's over, the young master can go back to the mansion to find his uncle.

Liu Che glanced at him, not wanting to break the mind of that brat who had his impatience written all over his face.

"The Tingwei Office reported to me the day before yesterday that there was a change in Hengshan State." Liu Che said indifferently.

"..." Huo Qubing remained silent.

Liu Che didn't intend to let Huo Qubing say anything, and continued: "The sergeant you escorted back, he is the dead soldier beside Hengshan King Liu Ci..." After a pause, his lowered voice became even more gloomy. "He was originally arranged under the account of the general, but this time he happened to be selected by you when you set out to take him out."

"Isn't this very good? The nails have been pulled out in the army, and your majesty has obtained evidence of Hengshan's rebellion, which can eliminate your serious confidant in one fell swoop. Speaking of which, your majesty is really eclectic in employing people." Huo Qubing raised his eyebrows, and said There was a bit of anger in it.The secret work was originally under Wei Qing's tent, and he took him to beat the Hexi Corridor. If he didn't find out, what would happen to Huo Qubing, he couldn't imagine and didn't dare to think about it.

"Hmph, you boy!" Liu Che knew what he meant, and he was not angry, he only said that Huo Qubing was upset because of something wrong with Wei Qing, and deliberately came to make fun of him, the emperor.

"This time I was careless. I thought that except for Liu An, the other princes and kings would settle down, but I didn't expect that the tree wants to be quiet but the wind won't stop! How dare you plot against the commander-in-chief of the Han army, you must be cleared, you must be cleared!"

Liu Che's eyes were fierce, and his face was covered with a layer of unmelted frost.

"As soon as your majesty issues an edict, I will immediately drag this old bastard Liu Ci from Hengshan to Chang'an for you!"

Huo Qubing lifted his clothes and knelt in front of Liu Che, raised his head, his dark eyes were full of bloodlust.

The lights in the hall were flickering, and Liu Che stood up and paced back and forth, stopping suddenly.He turned his head and waved his wide sleeves, "No!" The long eyebrows that slanted into his temples were frowned tightly.

"You can't go!"

"You are a foreign relative, meddling in these matters will only make those clans point their fingers at you! You just need to settle down for me to solve the Huns problem. As for the matter of treason... Let the master go!" Liu Chechao waited outside the hall Chuntuo waved his hand, "Immediately declare the master and father to enter the palace!" Then he said to Huo Qubing who was still kneeling: "You go back to the general's mansion quickly, and let me inspect all the servants in the mansion. If there is any abnormality, immediately Report to the Tingwei Office!"

"The minister obeys the order!"
