Long live the general

Chapter 11 Chang'an Ziwei

When they arrived at Ziwei Palace, the carriage stopped in front of the palace gate.Huo Yi came out of the carriage, and the guards on both sides of the palace gate asked him to untie his sword.Huo Yi handed the sword to the guard, and couldn't help but take another look. He never left the sword, which made him very insecure.

Chen Zhonglang got off his horse and led Huo Yi into Ziwei Palace, passed through the palaces and walked towards Dongyuan.

Huo Yi lived in the palace many years ago. Over the years, he still remembers the layout of the palace and the arrangement of the forbidden army. In the east garden, there are pavilions from the palace, waterside orchards, hunting grounds, etc., which are used by the emperor for entertainment and banquets for ministers. The place.

They walked into Dongyuan, and another minister came over and led them all the way to the Qushui Pavilion.

Dongyuan has a beautiful scenery, with exotic flowers and trees, and mountain stone carvings are hidden among them.Huo Yi saw the Qushui Pavilion in the distance from the gap of lush vegetation. A man wearing a black robe was sitting in the pavilion. Although it was far away and his figure was blurred, he could still see It is a handsome and tall silhouette.

They followed the courtiers to the Qushui Pavilion, and only walked over the long corridor on the water after being informed by the servants.

Huo Yi cupped his hands and saluted: "Chen Xihe Governor Huo Yi sees His Majesty."

"Huo Qing, please sit down." He heard a young and deep voice with some smiles.

Huo Yi did not shirk. After sitting down, the maid next to him poured tea for him. Huo Yi stared at the steaming tea with a very respectful attitude.

Zhou Zhenyan looked at him, his lowered eyelashes cast a shadow on Huo Yi's face.Qushui Pavilion is beautiful and dignified. When Huo Yi walked in wrapped in the wind and frost of the Gobi, it seemed to make Qushui Pavilion cold and solemn.

Zhou Zhenxue thought to himself that Huo Yi was a little different from what he had imagined, or in other words, better than he had imagined.

Zhou Zhenzhen had been looking forward to this meeting for a long time, and he slowly showed a faint smile: "Huo Qing came back from Xihebian County, and the journey was exhausting. Did the journey go well?"

Huo Yi said politely: "Thanks to Chen Zhonglang taking care of me all the way, it went very smoothly."

Zhou Zhen sighed, then looked at Chen Zhonglang next to him, and said, "This is the first time Chen Qing has been to Xihebian County, how do you feel?"

The two of them sat facing each other, and Chen Zhonglang stood alone outside the pavilion. He keenly sensed the delicate atmosphere between the Holy Majesty and the Sheriff Huoyi, and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, although Xihebian County is located in the west and the sky is full of yellow sand, it is very beautiful." It is lively, the folk customs are simple, and the law and order are clear. The climate, customs and crops in the border counties are different from those in the Central Plains, and this time I have gained a lot of knowledge."

He said a few more casual words, took the opportunity to leave, and left quickly.

After Chen Zhonglang left, Zhou Zhenyan asked, "Huo Qing, do you still remember that we haven't seen each other for several years?"

Huo Yi turned a few thoughts in his mind, and said cautiously: "Twelve years."

"No, no, Huo Qing, you remember wrong." Zhou Zhenyan shook his head and said, "Five years ago when you returned to Chang'an to report on your work, we met once in the front hall, but we didn't talk at that time. Later, I went to Huo's mansion Looking for you, but was told you had left."

Huo Yi didn't know about this at all, he raised his head in astonishment, and bumped into the pure black eyes of the young emperor, Zhou Zhenyan smiled at the corner of his eyes, and asked in a relaxed tone: "Brother Huo, why are you running so fast?"

He called Huo Yi Brother Huo, which was a long time ago.

Zhou Zhenyan has just turned eighteen, and the youthful vigor and sharpness can still be seen in his silhouette. He is wearing a black robe with wide shoulders and narrow back. The jade belt outlines a tough and straight waist. Although he is sitting upright, he looks Pretty laid back.

His slender fingers were fiddling with the paperwork on the case, and there was a slight smile in his eyes. Although he was young, he already showed a calm and imposing manner.

Huo Yi withdrew his gaze, and said distressedly: "The minister didn't know about this matter. There are few people in Bianjun and many things happen, so they probably left in a hurry."

His title turned the relationship between the two into an ordinary relationship between monarch and minister.

Zhou Zhenxie got closer and said: "In conclusion, Huo Qing has been in Xihebian County for eight years. The Xihebian County has not lost an inch of land in the past eight years. This is all thanks to Huo Qing."

He leaned over and raised his hand, and poured a cup of tea for Huo Yi himself: "If everyone is like Huo Qing, why should Da Yue be afraid of the Xiongnu cavalry?"

Huo Yi picked up the teacup with both hands, and was thinking about how to answer this sentence, when the young emperor said: "It's a pity that there is only one Huo Qing in Da Viet."

The translucent tea poured out, Huo Yi was slightly startled, his thoughts slowly fell silent along with the tea.

No.

His father Huo Fengnian is more experienced than him, and his elder brother Huo Xin is more dignified than him.

If they are still there, they will do better than themselves.

Huo Yi restrained his mind and said without leaking: "Your Majesty is absurd. There are many talents in Dayue, and many of them are generals. The Xiongnu cavalry is not invincible."

Zhou Zhenyan's eyes lit up, and he leaned over to hold Huo Yi's wrist. He wanted to ask the sheriff what he meant by that sentence, but the cold skin on his hands made him change the subject: "Why is Huo Qing's hand so cold, isn't it? It's too windy here."

Huo Yi was caught off guard, and saw the black robe walking over the desk, with delicate patterns embroidered on the thick hem, Zhou Zhenyan directly reached out to help him up, and said, "Huo Qing, go to Xiaojiao Temple, let's go Talk while walking."

Xiaojiaodian is a warm room. At Zhou Zhenyan's age, he would not feel cold even in the coldest winter. He usually doesn't like to stay there.

Zhou Zhenyan pulled Huo Yi and left: "It's windy in the border county, and life is hard. Did Huo Qing suffer from a cold body over there?...Do you feel cold?"

Huo Yi actually didn't feel it himself, he was used to it, and he didn't think it was a problem.Moreover, he rarely had such physical contact with others. Although the Sheriff of Xihe was humble and gentle, everyone could faintly sense that the Sheriff was not easy to get close to.

Zhou Zhenyan's hands were thick and slender, hot and dry, and the temperature was transmitted through the cold skin. The heat on the wrist was very clear, which made Huo Yi feel...uncomfortable.

Huo Yi replied: "Fortunately, it should be because I just came back from Bianjun and I am not used to it."

He calmly tried to break free, but he didn't try too hard, hoping that the Holy One would understand what he meant and consciously let go of his hand.Zhou Zhenyan, who had been watching all his emotions and movements, was very sensitive to people's hearts, but did not respond, and even squeezed Huo Yi's hand aggressively.

"You've lost a lot of weight." Zhou Zhenyan looked down at his hands, and said with a smile, "I remember when you taught me archery, I couldn't learn it no matter what, and you taught me by hand."

At that time Zhou Zhenyan was lonely and helpless in the palace, his father was a cold-blooded emperor, and his brothers were all life-and-death competitors.Zhou Jing never talked to them about brothers and sisters, he only needed the best prince.All Zhou Zhenyan felt in the palace was indifference and contempt. He barely survived the open and dark arrows until he was five years old when his father gave him a servant.

The second son of the Huo family, Huo Yi.

Huo Yi is different from everyone in the palace. He is a child nurtured by the love of his parents and elder brothers. The strength and love he gets from his family can be shared with those around him without reservation.The withdrawn Seventh Prince was just one of them, but for Zhou Zhenyan, the warmth that Huo Yi showed from his fingers was something he had never seen before.

Huo Yi is good at poetry and poetry, is good at riding and archery, and his swordsmanship is also very superb.He taught Zhou Zhenyan archery, horseback riding, and practiced swordsmanship.When he learned well, Huo Yi would praise him, but if he didn't learn well, Huo Yi never severely criticized him.Zhou Zhenyan's bow skills are poor, he pays too much attention to the bull's-eye, and the bow and arrow in his hand are extremely heavy.Huo Yi helped him relax his stiff arms, saying that archery should be a happy thing, but if you stare at the target too tightly, you will lose your way.

He also accompanied Zhou Zhenyan to study, history books, Confucianism, law, and even yin and yang studies and the art of war. He did not treat the seventh prince as a child, but communicated earnestly and sincerely.

When teaching Zhou Zhenzhen how to ride a horse, the Seventh Prince climbed onto the horse's back with short legs, and the docile little pony suddenly went crazy, threw him off the horse's back, raised its front hoof and stepped on it again.Huo Yi knelt down from the side and hugged him in his arms, and rolled a few times on the ground, avoiding the horse's hooves.

Zhou Zhenxie heard his violent heartbeat, which rang in his ears like a drum beating.Huo Yi hugged the trembling Zhou Zhenyan with his warm hands. He thought the child was frightened, so he comforted him softly, not telling him not to be afraid, but only saying that he was fine.

But Zhou Zhenxie was not afraid. He later found out that the little pony went crazy because of a certain brother's signal. He killed the little pony and put the little pony's ears into his brother's bedroom.

This kind of thing happened many times. Huo Yi was working as a part-time guard with the salary of a servant, and his life was always in danger. He lamented why the royal blood was so cold, and Zhou Zhenzhen didn't understand the relationship between the Huo family brothers A feeling of mutual concern and dependence.

Later, Huo Yi left Chang'an to join the Northern Army, and Zhou Zhenyan changed to another attendant, who was also educated and well-versed in both civil and military skills, but he was different from Huo Yi.

The waiter looked at him with scrutiny. He was thinking about whether the Seventh Prince was worth investing in. After being assassinated many times, he silently said that the Seventh Prince was really troublesome... Zhou Zhenzhen would never rest assured that he would sleep on the bed. side hall.

Zhou Zhenxie suddenly understood one day that Huo Yi was not looking at him, he was not looking at the Seventh Prince in the royal family, he was only looking at Zhou Zhenyan.

There will be no more such people.

After he learned about this, General Huo Fengnian was convicted of defeat and hanged himself at home.Yueyun Emperor Zhou Jing missed the old relationship, and did not implicate the Huo family, and even let Huo's eldest son serve as the governor of Xihebian County, holding one side of the military power.

That year Huo Yi, two years later, Huo Xin, the eldest son of Huo, died at the hands of the Huns, and Huo Yi became the governor of Xihe County.

Of course Zhou Zhenzhen could see the truth. Huo Fengnian was actually forced to death by Yueyun Emperor Zhou Jing. His crime was that he had too much power. The world only knew General Huo, but not the emperor.

So in order to protect his family, he chose to apologise.
