my brother champion

Chapter 248 Time flies! The prelude to the witchcraft disaster has officially begun

After Huo Guang was demoted, he stayed at his own polytechnic to teach science and engineering knowledge that was difficult for people of this era to understand.

  Although the Han Dynasty was two thousand years ago.

  But don’t underestimate the wisdom of people in this era. Some simple knowledge can still be easily learned by children.

  Like the multiplication table we learned in primary school.

  It existed during the Qin Dynasty.

  but.

  The Qin Dynasty pushed forward from ninety-nine to eighty-one, and we pushed back from one to one.

  of course.

  That's not the most outrageous thing.

  The smallest multiplication table of the Qin Dynasty was not one equal to one, but two and a half equal to one.

  This is said to prove that the study of denominators was already involved in mathematics during the Qin Dynasty.

  As for why there is no minimum formula for getting one one by one.

  may.

  People at that time thought this was too childish and there was no need to think about it, right?
  pity.

  The culture before the Qin Dynasty was burned down by a reckless man, who took away some real money and silver, leaving nothing else.

  of course.

  Huo Guang can't control what happened in the past. Now he is only responsible for teaching these children some science and engineering knowledge in middle and high schools. He is happy staying in the academy.

  It's just the outside world, but it's not so calm.

  Your Majesty's attempt to seize the Marquis from Huo Guang is just the beginning. Later, nearly a hundred marquis were captured one after another.

  among them.

  Including Wei Buyi, the second son of General Wei Qing, and Wei Deng, the youngest son.

  It is known in history that remuneration is lost!

  In fact, Wei Buyi and Wei Deng, just like Huo Guang, were used to silence the deprived princes.

  Huo Guang had just returned from Dawan and had made great achievements. Not only should he not be deprived of the title of marquis, but he should also be rewarded.

  pity.

  Wasn't he deprived of the title of Marquis?
  Wei Buji and Wei Deng were only twelve or thirteen years old at this time!

  What is the connection between the reward case and the two of them?
  Got ripped off again.

  Not to mention favored ministers like Gongsun He, Han Shuo, and Zhao Ponu.

  Aren't they the Marquis who went to pay the reward?
  What does this matter have to do with them?
  In the end, he was deprived of the title of Marquis.

  All the people around the emperor were cut off, and those ministers who were cut off as marquises could only swallow their dissatisfaction in their hearts.

  As time goes by, gradually, everything in the outside world seems to have lost contact with Huo Guang.

  General Wei Qing's body is also getting older day by day.

  It may be that he fought on the battlefield when he was young and had hidden diseases on his body, which caused him to age much faster than normal people.

  When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che was still strong and strong.

  General Wei Qing could only lie in bed every day, looking very old.

  But even so.

  Queen Wei Zifu still came over often and bothered his younger brother about the prince's situation. There is no other reason. In the past, the prince was the only son of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Although he disliked his personality, he still loved him.

  But as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had more and more princes.

  Gradually he was no longer favored.

  among them.

  In addition, there are some villains who are sowing discord among them, and the prince is growing up day by day. He is the most legitimate heir to the throne of the Han Dynasty, and he is also the most threatening person to the position of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

  Ordinary people may not feel the emperor's fear of the prince.

  But most emperors were very worried about the next heir, and the temptation of power was really dizzying.

  The combination of many factors caused subtle changes in Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che's treatment of the prince.

  This!

  This is exactly why Wei Zifu is worried.

  Even though the general Wei Qing was physically exhausted, he had to get up from his bed and go to the palace to speak for the prince.

  This also caused Wei Qing's condition to further worsen.

  The medical officers in the palace were helpless about Wei Qing's condition, and Huo Guang was even more helpless.

  Chang'an Street was deserted.

  A group of men and horses returned from afar. Upon closer inspection, they saw that the leading middle-aged general had bright eyes and a handsome face. He was none other than General Huo Qubing, who had beaten the Northern Huns and fled in panic!

  Come back now.

  Knowing that his uncle Wei Qing, the great general and great Sima, might not be able to survive, he rushed back to Chang'an thousands of miles away.

  Arriving at the shogunate, where he had been away for a long time, Huo Qubing met his haggard uncle and said some words.

  Subsequently.

  He also called Huo Guang, who taught in the academy, over.

  It had been many years before the two brothers met each other.

  "I heard someone said that you won a battle in Dawan, but your Majesty deprived you of a marquis title. What happened?" Huo Qubing asked.

  Huo Guang didn't care about this and said with a smile: "It's just fame. Everything is rewarded by His Majesty. Now that Your Majesty has cut it off, it's no big deal."

  Huo Qubing nodded, and then said: "How about brother interceding with His Majesty?"

  If the champion goes to intercede with His Majesty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty should give him this favor, right?

  But the problem is!

  If a favor is given to the champion marquis, then if someone intercedes on behalf of the other people who have been deprived of their marquis, should Your Majesty give this favor?
  When the time comes, His Majesty will be in a dilemma and will blame his brother.

  Huo Guang didn't want his brother to get into trouble for this little thing, so he said: "Brother, there is no need to be like this. In the Battle of Dawan, nine out of ten Han soldiers were lost. In addition, I was in the court, and there was indeed a noise, which offended the dragon." Yan."

  "It's okay to teach in the academy now and calm down."

  "Cultivation of one's moral character."

  "When His Majesty needs me, he will not treat me badly."

  In the Han Dynasty's discussion of military merit, there was this article, which required that the losses of the own army should not be too large, otherwise even if it won, it would be a fault but no merit.

  Although Li Guangli led the army when he went to Dawan, most of the Han army fell into his hands.

  But the ruler doesn’t care about this, so there’s nothing he can do about it!
  What is there to say?

  I am the world!
  Seeing that Huo Guang was so open-minded about being deprived of the title of Marquis, Huo Qubing felt relieved and said with a smile: "It's great that you think so. My brother has become much calmer in the past few years outside the Great Wall."

  "Even I feel that when I was young, I overdid some things."

  "Now that I think about it, I feel really regretful."

  When he was young, Huo Qubing was really the devil in Chang'an City.

  Later he became a young general, but he was still restless.

  Many people were offended.

  in!

  Taishi's family bore the brunt of the attack, so Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, who beat the Huns and fled in embarrassment, only left a few sentences in "Historical Records", and they were not very good descriptions.

  But then again.

  People really change. People who looked fierce when they were young will actually look kind and kind in middle age or old age.

  Huo Guang was a little surprised at Huo Qubing's change and said with a smile: "Brother, I still think you were better when you were a teenager."

  Hearing this, Huo Qubing raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Why do you say that?" Huo Guang smiled faintly and said, "Because if you act like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to control Huan'er!"

  "Shan'er is still wearing her skin now."

  "As an uncle, if I want to take care of it, my sister-in-law will protect me. Now that this kid knows that someone is protecting him, he has become lawless."

  Hear this.

  Huo Qubing immediately showed a hearty smile. After he came back, he first met with His Majesty, and then came to the General's shogunate, so that he didn't even have time to go home.

  It has been many years since I last saw my wife and children, and now that Huo Guang mentioned them, I missed them even more.

  in this way.

  I even want to go home.

  A year after the general died of illness, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che sent Huo Qubing south to pacify Baiyue.

  Although the Han Dynasty was already the king of the Central Plains, many small countries in the south did not surrender in a true sense, and their territories had not yet truly entered the territory of the Han Dynasty.

  The trouble of the Xiongnu in the north was gone for the time being, and going south naturally became the main goal of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

  Huo Guang is still working as a teacher in the academy.

  Anyway, the businesses he started when he was young are still making money like crazy. In terms of money, he is now carefree.

  until today.

  Someone came to the palace, and someone asked him to enter the palace.

  The person who introduced him to the palace was not Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che, but Queen Wei Zifu.

  After seeing Wei Zifu, Huo Guang knelt down and said, "Common Huo Guang, please pay homage to the Queen."

  The empress immediately showed a smile on her face and said: "Huo Guang, don't be so restrained. Your brother calls the general his uncle, and you should do the same. And I am also the general's sister, so we can be considered a family."

  "It's a pity that the brother of my great general, Great Sima, suffered a bad fate."

  "I originally had a lot of merit, and when I should have enjoyed the glory and wealth, my soul returned to my hometown, eh."

  The sadness on Wei Zifu's face didn't seem to be fake. After all, she and General Wei Qing were biological siblings, and the family relationship was still very strong.

  But Huo Guang was different.

  Huo Guang and Huo Qubing are related by blood through the paternal line, but they have no connection with the Wei family.

  The Queen is looking for me now?
  Is there something to say?
  Thinking of this, Huo Guang did not react to the Queen's words, but asked directly: "I wonder what the Queen wants to do when she calls the people over this time?"

  When Queen Wei Zifu heard this, his expression changed. He stared at Huo Guang for two seconds before he said, "It's nothing, just a casual chat. The prince is now at a reckless age, and he doesn't want to do anything." consider."

  "Our Wei and Huo families should help each other."

  "It stands to reason that since you are two years older than the prince, I should call you cousin just like I call you brother."

  Is this a relationship?

  Now that General Wei Qing has died of illness, the only person with real power in the Wei family is the Queen.

  But Empress Wei Zifu's appearance was easy to age, and it was difficult for him to please Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

  You know, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che had a lot of beauties around him, and they were all beauties of the most charming level.

  This is not like the three thousand beauties in the harem of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. There are restrictions on their choice of concubines. They can only be the children of the Eight Banners of the Manchu people. Like Yongzheng's Nian Guifei, there are only a few individual examples that can be counted on one hand.

  The purer the blood, the stupider and uglier the offspring will be.

  That's how close relatives are.

  The harem of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, was different. Whoever was beautiful would be favored, without status restrictions.

  Wei Zifu was beautiful when he was eighteen years old!
  But can she be eighteen forever?
  When you are thirty or forty years old, will you be able to compete with those eighteen-year-old beauties?
  A very simple reason.

  Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could let the Wei and Huo families enjoy glory and wealth because of Wei Zifu. In the same way, he could also let the families of Mrs. Li, Mrs. Zhao, and Mrs. Gou Yi reach the same height.

  Even if he is a virtuous defender, how can he not be in a hurry?
  Now that I have found Huo Guang, the meaning is self-evident.

  If outsiders cannot be trusted, one's own family members will naturally want to win over each other. This is to strengthen the relationship between the prince and his family in the future.

  The child travels thousands of miles and the mother is worried!
  Even the Queen is no exception to this principle.

  Just like when the prince was framed by the traitors in the palace in the future, Wei Zifu would open the equipment arsenal for the sake of his children.

  As for the ending of history, can it be changed?

  Maybe!

  But Huo Guang had never thought about wading into this muddy water.

  A few years ago, when he returned from Dawan, he was deprived of a marquis title by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty despite his meritorious service. Why not only did he not have any complaints about this, but he was even happier?

  Naturally, it is to avoid this difficulty.

  and so.

  No matter what Huo Guang said, it would be impossible for him to join the princeling party, so he simply said clearly: "The Queen, please don't humiliate the common people. The prince's status is noble. How can a country person like me be able to get involved?"

  "Besides."

  "There is an emperor and courtiers, but the common people are short-sighted and only recognize the current majesty."

  Those words immediately blocked Wei Zifu's words.

  no way.

  The witchcraft disaster that will happen later will have huge implications.

  Huo Guang must cut ties with these people, otherwise, in the later stage, no matter whether he helps or not, he will inevitably die.

  The prince rebelled.

  If you don't help His Majesty deal with the Crown Prince, it will be a capital offense.

  You help His Majesty deal with the Crown Prince, and it's okay at first, but after a while, Your Majesty feels that it's you who caused him to lose his son in his later years. It's a traitor, or a capital crime.

  Your majesty thinks you have ulterior motives because you don't help either side and just sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers.

  It is also a good thing that my brother has been transferred away from the political center.

  This is probably the best ending for the Huo family.

  No matter what, Huo Guang rejected the Queen's relationship with Lahuo's family at the first opportunity. Although it may have offended Queen Wei, in the long run, there is no problem with this decision.

  As for why not try to change the ending?

  It's very simple.

  To doubt is to be guilty!
  When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not trust his own prince, it was useless for Huo Guang to do anything.

  After coming out of the palace.

  Huo Guang returned to teaching quietly in the academy.

  As time passed, great changes in the palace officially began, and witchcraft and poisonous people gradually spread to the harem.

  Until the first year of Taishi, Wei Qing's former playmate and savior Gongsun Ao, because his wife was involved in witchcraft, implicated the entire family in annihilation, and the witchcraft disaster gradually began.

  Four years later.

  In the first year of Zhenghe, the son of Prime Minister Gongsun He, Gongsun Jingsheng, was exposed for misappropriating [-] million yuan from the Northern Army as a servant and was arrested and imprisoned.

  The matter of witchcraft disaster.

  It's finally going to affect the Wei family.

  At this time, Huo Guang was no longer young and had already married a wife and had children.

  Mrs. Dong came over with chicken soup, placed it in front of Huo Guang who was compiling the book "Physical Principles of Quantum Theory", and said: "What kind of heavenly book are you writing, forgetting to sleep and eat like this?"

  Huo Guang smiled faintly and said, "It's a book that I don't understand either."

  "Oh?" Dong asked with confusion on his face, "Since even my husband doesn't understand it, what's the use of writing it? Can anyone understand it?"

  "Someone will understand in the future." Huo Guang put down the brush, then pulled the child to his side and said, "My father's appetite has been reduced recently and he can't eat much."

  "This chicken soup is most delicious when soaked in fried rice."

  "Come, let my son taste it first!"

  Huo Guang teased the child for a while. At this time, Mrs. Dong asked: "Husband, the Wei brothers have been looking for you recently because of the imprisonment of the son of Prime Minister Gongsun. I beg you to find a way. Do you really want to hide away like this? "(End of chapter)
