[Han Wu Huo Wei] Yuan hunting seven years

Moved towards him, Wei Qing looked at the light.The big man Shuangbi stopped talking, each buried their heads, but quickly found their usual tacit understanding in official duties, and they cooperated seamlessly.

It was near dawn, and the two of them sorted out the affairs roughly. Huo Qubing was very satisfied. He touched his hot and heavy forehead, feeling tired and relaxed, and suddenly remembered something, and smiled apologetically to Wei Qing.

"Uncle hasn't eaten yet?"

Wei Qing only remembered it after he reminded him, but he was so busy at this moment that he no longer felt hungry, only felt tired from sitting for a long time, so he stretched out his arms and replied.

"Not hungry, go out for a walk with me."

Huo Qubing got up and walked out with him, the sky was cloudy, the waning moon was uncertain, the barracks was very quiet, but it was loose on the outside and tight on the inside, the two gradually walked out of the camp, Huo Qubing could see that Wei Qing had something on his mind, he He didn't bother to ask questions, just paced slowly with Wei Qing, talking to him about the official business just now, and it was right to distract him.After a while, Wei Qing really spoke.

"Qubing, I'm worried."

Huo Qubing didn't make a fuss, just stopped and listened quietly.This appearance made Wei Qing feel very comfortable. He sorted out his thoughts and said slowly.

"More than ten years ago, Doctor Ji An said that the world will be peaceful on the day when General Ma releases Nanshan."

"I understand how much the battle in Mobei will cost. How can there be peace without war? At that time, I thought, it doesn't matter. After this battle, the people will be able to recuperate. It is worthwhile to have at least 20 years of good life." .”

"But I went to see Ziyi today. His house is so clean. It's not him alone, not theirs. You and I came back from Shuofang all the way. You can also see how the people live on the way."

"It is said that the big man is now in the country, but the life of the common people is more difficult than it was in the past."

Wei Qing didn't say anything deeper, but Huo Qubing understood.The older he is, the more he understands. For military strategists, the real way to win is not "how to win", which is a trivial matter, but the decision "to fight or not to fight".Whether to fight or not, in a small way, is Zhao Ponu's instantaneous choice on the Junjishan battlefield. In a big way, it is to find a balance between "forgetting the battle will be dangerous" and "a warlike one will die".And who dares to master the subtlety of this balance since ancient times?

However, Wei Qing, as the commander-in-chief of the Han Dynasty, can be said that in the past 20 years, this person has almost single-handedly implemented the war between the Han Dynasty and Hungary. Even at this moment, this person realized that it was time to stop and he could no longer fight.

However, this opinion is contrary to His Majesty's administration.Not long ago, His Majesty issued an edict to seek talents, saying that "extraordinary achievements must be treated by extraordinary people", so what could be the "extraordinary achievements" that His Majesty has remembered for decades?

And Wei Qing's status is too special.He is the prince's uncle, and also the biggest backer of the prince's matriarchal power. If he speaks, he will be different from Ji An, and even different from himself back then. He does not represent himself. Whether he wants to or not, his opinion will be To be regarded as the opinion of the prince is tantamount to provoking His Majesty's power.

Huo Qubing doesn't like politics, but his mind is actually clearer than anyone else's. Hussars can hide their tracks on the battlefield because he is better at seeing through others than anyone else.Huo Qubing frowned and smiled, a little proud and a little helpless, he knew very well that since Wei Qing had seen it, he couldn't help but say that this person was only a pawn in the past, but he had the world in his heart and carried everything on his shoulders. Today, as an important minister of the imperial court, is there any reason for him not to speak up?

Huo Qubing was silent, but said: "Your Majesty is also difficult."

The two have been together so far, and the tacit understanding has grown deep. As soon as he opened his mouth, Wei Qing understood all the unfinished meanings in the words.

These two have been in Shuofang all these years, and they are somewhat estranged from Chang'an. Only after they came back did they realize that the court had undergone some subtle changes.Han Tianzi Liu Che has been a powerful monarch since he succeeded to the throne, and through a series of victories in the Han-Hungarian wars, he has confirmed his undeniable status.It can be said that since the Huainan case, none of Liu's clan dared to challenge the authority of the emperor.However, the voices opposing the use of troops in the ruling and opposition parties have never stopped, and have even intensified.

Among these voices, there are inherent advocacy ministers who are worried that the national power will not be sustained after a long war, but there are also many people who are resentful about the loss of interests in the centralized state administration implemented by the emperor since he succeeded to the throne, and they are just using it as an excuse.Therefore, if an important official like Wei Huo speaks, their words will be used as an excuse by someone with a heart, and interpreted into another meaning.

This is the case with the court situation, and it affects the whole body.Wei Huo understands that His Majesty is an unborn hero, and his strategic vision can always be one step ahead of others, which is beyond the reach of his subordinates. His Majesty wants to accomplish the careers of several generations of the Han family by himself. Perhaps, Qianqiu After ten thousand generations, future generations will prove that His Majesty is right, and those who are stupid are those who worry about nothing.

Wei Qing asked himself that he didn't have such a vision, but he also knew very clearly that the Huns are now hiding in the extreme northern desert, and how much money they will have to pay for another war. In this way, the refugees in the Kanto, the lessons learned from the previous dynasties are not far away. ..

Wei Qing had been thinking about this question for an unknown amount of time. He hesitated, not because there were too many constraints, but because it involved the efforts of several generations of the Han family. Even a person like Wei Qing would inevitably hesitate when he was about to make a decision.That's why he thought about it and finally asked Huo Qubing a question.

"What do you think?"

Huo Qubing smiled lightly this time, without the seriousness he had just had before, he smiled a bit cunningly, and said: "Didn't the general think about it a long time ago?"

Wei Qing raised his eyebrows and said, "What do I want?"

Huo Qubing looked at him, with both admiration and pity in his eyes, but he said: "The general borrows the sword, and I will sing a song for you to listen to."

Wei Qing has been with him half his life, so he naturally knows that he can sing, and he can sing very well, but Qu Bing despises this kind of teaching, and never speaks in front of others.Wei Qing also knew that he seemed to be doing things casually, but in fact there were deep meanings, so he didn't ask him why, and handed him the sword without thinking.

Huo Qubing sat on the ground casually, interlocking his fingers, and with a clear voice, he praised: "Good sword!" After a short pause, he really played the sword and sang.Standing beside him, Wei Qing felt that the song was quite ancient, or because of playing the sword, there was a faint sound of gold in his graceful mood, but the words and sentences had never been heard before.

"The four barbarians are protected, and the summers are healthy; the country is peaceful, and the joy is not young; the bow and arrow are hidden when the kylin comes; .”

Wei Qing listened with lowered eyes, did not say anything, his eyes gradually glowed, washed away the tiredness just now, and only heard the last sentence before his face became slightly hot. This was originally their private conversation, but it was woven into the song by Qu Bing inside.He listened for a while, then naturally sat down next to Huo Qubing, and hummed softly himself.

Huo Qubing also smiled when he heard his voice, he didn't expect that after being with him till now, he could still go one step further with love.The longer we get along, the deeper the understanding. When the third son became king, it was Wei Qing who he wanted to protect. Today, what he wholeheartedly helps is his ambition.

Perhaps, this is the initial and purest point of mutual attraction.

They, have exactly the same dream.

In order to fulfill this dream, it doesn't matter what you are like.

Even if the road is obstructed and long, if you have children to walk with you, why be afraid of it?Facing difficulties and walking side by side is the ultimate joy.

The two chief ministers discussed politics at Jianzhangying, and the Han Emperor Liu Che returned to Weiyang Palace while drinking after the celebration banquet. This night, Liu Che was not sleepy at all, and he did not want to invite any concubines. He made a sword and walked alone. In front of the huge map of the territory of the Han family, his eyes were piercing and he was full of ambition.

This picture is very different from the beginning of his accession to the throne. The land was expanded and the territory was vast. Liu Che thought of the book Lu Houzhi Maodun he read when he was young, and how he personally led an army of 18 people a few years ago. The letter to the Huns when hunting in the north.

Thinking of these, as well as all the difficulties in starting a business since he succeeded to the throne, Liu Che felt that his heart was surging, his blood was boiling, and he couldn't restrain himself at all.At this moment, Liu Che is full of enthusiasm and ambition, even more than when he was a teenager, but he doesn't know who to talk to. Perhaps, only when Emperor Gaozu is reborn and looks at this great river and mountain, can he understand.There was a voice in Liu Che's heart telling him that it was time. He walked to the case by himself, almost without thinking, and began to write an edict to revive the Xiongnu that had been brewing for an unknown amount of time.

"Emperor Gao left me the worries of Pingcheng, and Shan Yushu was absolutely rebellious during Empress Gao's time. Duke Xiang of the former Qi Dynasty restored the dominion of the ninth generation, and the Spring and Autumn Period is great!"

Extraordinary achievements must be treated by extraordinary people.The father has done so much, he waited for death, and handed over the country to him. Now, he has finally lived up to the entrustment, hey, not only, he can do more.This is a great mission from heaven. He, the son of heaven, wants to act on behalf of God to build the big man into a foundation for generations to come!

At this moment, someone behind Liu Che suddenly coughed heavily, the voice was old and distinct in the silent night.Liu Che frowned and turned around. Under the bright candlelight, there was a thin old man with white beard and hair in the hall. Although the man was old, his back was still straight.Liu Che was stunned for a moment, suddenly puzzled, and felt that this appearance was indescribably familiar. The other party was just an old man on the verge of death. However, even though he had been the emperor of the Han Dynasty for ten years, he could not suppress his aura at all. Liu Che was both surprised and angry that the old man was wearing the clothes of the emperor of the Han family, just like himself.

Before he could open his mouth, the white-haired old man had already walked towards him slowly, striding at every step, but said: "Liu Che, you are too confident." The voice was majestic and sarcastic, and he smiled, but he had a feeling of saying no. The loneliness and desolation that came out.

The night was very quiet, and one of the servants vaguely heard someone talking in the hall, sometimes high and sometimes low, like a dispute, but the voice seemed to be the emperor talking to himself, the waiter wanted to find out, but he sternly stopped for the emperor.

In the early morning, the servant came in, but saw the emperor sitting alone with his sword in his arms, his complexion as dark as a disease, as if he had aged ten years overnight, and the map of the territory that the emperor was most proud of was split in two by someone's sword.

The emperor was ill, and the crown prince Liu Ju came to attend to the illness in a hurry, just in time for Liu Che to take the case and get angry, and hissed to order people to expel all the wizards who had been brought by the servants to exorcise evil spirits from the palace.When Liu Ju saw this, he was a little dazed, and he didn't know why the group of alchemists whom his father had favored and trusted in recent years suddenly fell out of favor. When Liu Che saw him, he got up abruptly, staggered forward, and hugged him with both hands. The old man was crying, he stroked his head with his hands, and said repeatedly: "My son is fine." The voice and movements were like the prince was still a child in his arms many years ago, crying and shouting angrily at the same time Burn any wizard who doesn't leave.

Now Liu Ju was terrified, his father had been headstrong and domineering all his life, why didn't he just talk and laugh about it?In recent years, although I have been sick and uncomfortable from time to time, but my temper is particularly irritable, occasionally moody, and my words are harsh, which makes people feel uncomfortable. How can I cry like this? !

The prince is kind and filial by nature, and when he was shocked, he was so anxious that he burst into tears. A friend in adversity sees the truth. This pair of supreme father and son who do not seem to be particularly harmonious at this moment have touched an indescribable grievance between the brothers and sisters of the Tian family. It is almost a sympathy. Crying with a headache, my nature is revealed for a while.

What happened that year?Not only the present generation, but future generations are also debating endlessly.

What people can see is that after Liu Che, the most capable monarch in the Han Dynasty, fell ill, all policies took a big turn.

Liu Che's aggressiveness since he succeeded to the throne has turned into a break with the people, stopping wars, returning farmland, and abolishing taxes. At the same time, he gave Prince Liu the greatest power.One day, the emperor of Han and the prince met several important ministers in the proclamation room. Liu Che didn't talk nonsense, and ordered Wei Qing, the general of the Sima, Huo Qubing, the general of the hussars, Sang Hongyang, the father of the censor, and Gongsun He, the prime minister, to face the prince in front of him. Giving a big salute is like asking for a lonely person. This move stunned everyone.

This is tantamount to handing over the military and political power of the imperial court to the prince without reservation.Later generations commented that the emperors of all dynasties have never had such a degree of decentralization in cultivating princes.Some people even speculated secretly that this move might be the victory of Prince Wei's matriarchal forces, which might force Gong Yunyun.However, facts speak louder than words. Liu Che has been in power for more than [-] years, and the prince has always been kind and filial.Therefore, Liu Che, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was called the most unfathomable monarch.
