Until he got on the carriage heading to the capital, Huo Yunchao still couldn't figure out the real reason why Emperor Yong'an called him to the capital. He made up a lot of things in his mind.

When Huo Yunchao stood in the splendid palace, he still felt like he was dreaming. The rules taught to him by the etiquette officer were forgotten and he couldn't remember them at all.

The high-pitched voice of the chief eunuch rang out. Huo Yunchao looked blankly at the place where the sound came from, and his eyes met the tall, upright-looking Emperor Yong'an with bright eyes.

The moment their eyes met, Huo Yunchao's heartbeat stopped.

This was the first time the chief eunuch saw someone who didn't understand the rules. He was about to give a warning when he saw Emperor Yong'an waving his hand for him to lead the people away.

Emperor Yong'an's voice was clear: "Huo Aiqing."

Huo Yunchao came back to his senses and knelt down with a bang: "I send you your regards, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Yong'an quickly walked a few steps to Huo Yunchao and helped him stand up personally: "Huo Aiqing, there is no need to be polite, just sit there. You can tell me about new grain crops and disaster relief."

Huo Yunchao went from being cautious and fearful at the beginning to responding fluently in less than a stick of incense.

Emperor Yong'an listened very carefully, and finally he took out the book submitted by Huo Yunchao: "Huo Aiqing, did you really read this book from someone else?"

Huo Yunchao's heart skipped a beat, and he was about to tell the truth when he saw Emperor Yong'an thoughtfully saying, "Huo Aiqing only needs to answer yes or no."

He had thought it over before he came, and no matter what Emperor Yong'an asked, he would always answer it.

He would not dare to do anything that would deceive the emperor.

Huo Yunchao's eyes were red with excitement: "No."

Emperor Yong'an looked at Huo Yunchao carefully and smiled happily: "Huo Aiqing, you are very good."

Huo Yunchao was startled.

Emperor Yong'an asked again: "Huo Aiqing, up to now, are you still willing to be the Xu family's son-in-law?"

Huo Yunchao answered in the affirmative.

Emperor Yong'an sighed softly and asked again: "I heard that your daughter will not take your surname? Will your next children also take your surname?"

Huo Yunchao still answered in the affirmative without hesitation.

Emperor Yong'an lifted a bamboo basket from behind: "Huo Aiqing, can you see if this is the potato you mentioned?"

Huo Yunchao took a closer look and saw that there were not only potatoes in the bamboo basket, but also red and hot chili peppers. He immediately started chatting and excitedly shared the delicious taste of hot and sour potato shreds with Emperor Yong'an.

When Emperor Yong'an saw Huo Yunchao being so keen on food, he immediately stood up and said, "Huo Aiqing will follow me to the imperial kitchen to make the hot and sour potato shreds you mentioned."

Huo Yunchao was about to make a move in his heart, but the agricultural doctor gene in his heart moved and he dissuaded him: "Huh? Your Majesty, there are not many potatoes here, so it's best to save seeds."

Emperor Yong'an turned his back to Huo Yunchao and raised the corners of his mouth quietly. The words really did not lie. Huo Yunchao was true to his words. He was either thinking about his wife, children or farming.

He then thought: If he were not a pure and kind person, Huo Yunchao would not be loved by God.

During this trip to the capital, Huo Yunchao came and went in a hurry. He was uneasy when he came, but he returned with a full load when he returned.

Emperor Yong'an not only gave Huo Yunchao potatoes, peppers and other crops, but also gave him a lot of real gold, silver, jewelry and cloth. But in Huo Yunchao's eyes, the most valuable things were the boxes of ancient books that even money could not buy.

On the way home, Huo Yunchao met the convoy of the Minister of Industry.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry saw with his own eyes the reward given to Huo Yunchao by Emperor Yong'an, and then saw the elite soldiers and generals that Emperor Yong'an sent to Huo Yunchao to accompany him. He was shocked beyond words.

Huo Yunchao had a good relationship with the Minister of Industry. After a conversation, he gave the Minister of Industry some meat sauce and ham: "This meat sauce and ham are from the imperial kitchen. They are delicious. Your Majesty is so lucky. I can eat so much delicious food every day.”

Minister of the Ministry of Industry:...

Marquis Pingle, aren't you afraid of disaster coming from your mouth?

Pinglehou was afraid. The problem was that Pinglehou had no idea that he had said the wrong thing.

During the month he stayed in the capital, Emperor Yong'an never blamed Huo Yunchao, and no one dared to remind Huo Yunchao where he had gone too far. Emperor Yong'an ate whatever he did, and he never did any testing for fear of poisoning.

In order to change the subject, the Minister of Industry gave Huo Yunchao a piece of news: "Master Marquis, the people spontaneously donated money and materials to build a shrine for you."

Huo Yunchao didn't think about it. He suddenly heard the word Shengsi and jumped on the spot: "What? What the hell? What is Shengsi? I came to the capital to enjoy the blessings! Could it be some bastard?" Are you deliberately spreading rumors that Your Majesty wants to harm me?"

Apart from this speculation, Huo Yunchao couldn't think of anything else. If this was true, wouldn't his family be frightened?

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry hurriedly explained: "Master Hou, you have misunderstood. Master Hou, you have made outstanding contributions to the welfare of the people, building water conservancy projects, and reducing tax burdens. The people in the disaster area are grateful for your kindness and specially built a Create a shrine to commemorate your achievements."

This living temple not only has exquisite architecture and sculptures, but also has inscriptions that record Huo Yunchao's merits and virtues in detail for future generations to admire and learn from.

Huo Yunchao apologized sheepishly: "Huh? Is this what Shengsi means? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mr. Liang, I misunderstood."

When the Minister of the Ministry of Work returned to the capital, he listened to all the rumors about Huo Yunchao in the capital. He suddenly understood why Emperor Yong'an, who had always disliked being close to his ministers, kept Huo Yunchao in the capital for a month.

Emperor Yong'an admired Huo Yunchao very much and liked to listen to him talk about his family's shortcomings and share the details of farming. There were many people and things that he would never come into contact with in his life.

Ten years later, Emperor Yong'an suddenly suffered from a serious illness. While lying in bed, he issued an edict - ordering Huo Yunchao to come to Beijing.

Huo Yunchao came to Beijing again after ten years. This time he did not go to Beijing alone, but brought his favorite woman and his three sons and one daughter with him.

Emperor Yong'an summoned Huo Yunchao and saw that he was still as handsome and carefree as before, and sighed: "Huo Aiqing's style is still the same, but I am different from before."

In the past ten years, Huo Yunchao has always insisted on writing letters to Emperor Yong'an on big and small matters. The reason why he brought his family to the capital this time was because he wanted Emperor Yong'an to see his family.

Huo Yunchao knelt in front of the imperial bed: "Your Majesty is just ill, and he will get better after taking care of himself. Your Majesty, Xiao Fubao has embroidered the word "福" for you."

Emperor Yong'an looked at the many straight words "Fu" and smiled: "Huo Aiqing, you can be the first assistant."

Huo Yunchao looked stunned: "Your Majesty, isn't this appropriate?" He had never been a serious official for even a day!

Emperor Yong'an coughed violently and spit out a mouthful of black and red blood: "I can't trust others."

Huo Yunchao couldn't refuse and was ordered to do so at the critical moment: "Your Majesty, please get well as soon as possible!"

Emperor Yong'an's appointment of Marquis Pingle as his chief assistant was opposed by the ministers, and rumors spread.

Huo Yunchao didn't think he was qualified to be the first assistant. Emperor Yong'an simply pushed him to the top.

But whether he can be qualified for the position of chief assistant has anything to do with whether he will abandon his wife and daughter?

Three months after taking office, there was a widespread rumor that it was difficult to become a son-in-law, and Huo Shoufu would divorce his wife and marry another!

Huo Yunchao was so angry that he refuted the rumors: "I am the Xu family's adopted son-in-law. If I am divorced, I will be divorced! I hope all my colleagues will testify for me!"

Emperor Yong'an laughed heartily when he heard the report from the chief eunuch, his face was rosy, and there was no trace of the morbid condition of vomiting black blood?

The next day, there was another rumor: Mrs. Huo was an unreasonable and jealous tigress, and Huo had a thief's heart but no courage!

Huo Yunchao laughed angrily when he heard this rumor. He went home and complained to Xu Ning: "Who is so boring? Spreading rumors all the time!"

Xu Ning didn't take those rumors seriously at all. She patted Huo Yunchao's chest gently and said, "My lord, don't be like those villains. I think they are just jealous and jealous that you have gained His Majesty's trust and importance."

Huo Yunchao complained endlessly: "Your Majesty, please take good care of your health quickly. I really don't want to fight with those old guys who are as evil as a sieve!"

Xu Ning did not expose his background: Huo Yunchao clearly had a great time fighting with those cunning and cunning veterans!

She opened her arms and hugged Huo Yunchao, rubbed his chest, and said tenderly: "Mr., I feel very lucky."

Huo Yunchao was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "No, I think I am luckier!"

Xu Ning smiled and said: "We are all lucky!"

Huo Yunchao hugged her tightly: "Ning Niang, thank you for giving me a chance to show off. I will spend the rest of my life proving that your choice is right."

Xu Ning replied softly: "I believe you."

This trust lasted until the two were buried together.
