Emperor Zhao Yuan was stunned for a moment before he realized what Huo Wujiu said.

"...Give it away?" Emperor Zhao Yuan repeated.

Huo Wujiu nodded, that natural look seemed particularly righteous.

"Yes." He replied.

"You..." Emperor Zhao Yuan was about to get up in a hurry, almost coughing from choking.But Huo Wujiu's hands and feet were quick, before he coughed, he stepped forward and raised his hand to relieve him.

"You can't mess around!" Emperor Zhaoyuan said anxiously after his breath calmed down.

"No nonsense." Huo Wujiu replied.

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him suspiciously.

Seeing that Huo Wujiu stopped his hands, he said: "Since I'm sending it, it must be justified. The person who accepts it must also be worthy of this great responsibility."

"Who is it?" Emperor Zhaoyuan asked.

Huo Wujiu didn't make a sound.

Emperor Zhaoyuan was even more anxious.

"At least tell me, who is that person?" He said.

Huo Wujiu looked at him quietly.

Emperor Zhaoyuan stared at him for a long time, suddenly remembered something, and sat up quickly.

"I came back with you, Jiang from Nanjing... Jiang..."

"Jiang Suizhou." Huo Wujiu nodded and admitted.

"You...!" Emperor Zhao Yuan was so angry that he couldn't speak.

He was so angry that Huo Wujiu stood there leisurely, as if he had made a decision long ago and let the other party deal with him.

Emperor Zhaoyuan knew that Huo Wujiu was stubborn, and no one could change what he had decided.He was so angry that he was tongue-tied, and after a long time, he forced his mouth to say: "You should know his identity!"

"I know." Huo Wujiu nodded solemnly.

"Then how do you explain to the people of the world!" Emperor Zhaoyuan said anxiously, beating the edge of the bed.

After a moment of silence, Huo Wujiu spoke.

"I only know how to fight, uncle knows," he said.

Emperor Zhaoyuan panted heavily and did not speak.

"I'm impatient with civil servants, and I don't know how to govern the country, and my uncle knows it too." Huo Wujiu continued.

"But……"

"Success is easy, but keeping merit is difficult." Huo Wujiu said. "I know this truth, and I also understand that the fame that I am full of now, if I am not careful, it will all disappear, and only infamy will remain."

Emperor Zhaoyuan wanted to refute him, but he also knew that he was right.He opened his mouth, and after a long time, he let out a deep sigh.

"It's Suizhou who wants to take this burden for me." Huo Wujiu continued. "He is smart and has plans. He wants to see peace in the world more than I do. He didn't want this title at first. He just said that as long as I want to do it, he will help me."

Emperor Zhao Yuan raised his eyes to look at him when he heard this.

"However, I want to give him the title," he said. "He should be admired by all people, and he should be praised by future generations."

"What about you?" Emperor Zhao Yuan asked.

"Me?" Huo Wujiu paused, and smiled at Emperor Zhaoyuan.

"I assist him, and I defend the world for him." He said.

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him.

He grew up watching Huo Wujiu, but he has never seen Huo Wujiu like this.But he also knows why Huo Wujiu can say such words.

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him tremblingly, and after a long time, he said again: "You should know that the word love is the most unreliable thing in the world."

Huo Wujiu didn't speak.

"If you give the throne, you can never get it back. But sincerity is fine, and you can take it back at any time. Now you trade the throne for his sincerity, how do you know that his sincerity can stay with you for the rest of his life?"

Huo Wujiu lowered his eyes.

"I can't guarantee it," he said.

"so……"

"However, I can guarantee that my sincerity will be with him for the rest of my life." Huo Wujiu said.

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him in surprise.

Seeing Huo Wujiu raised his eyes to look at him, his gaze was firm and his tone was calm.

"I'm not trading the throne for his sincerity. To me, the throne is just a gift. My whole person, my whole life, is in his hands for the rest of my life. The throne doesn't matter, anyway. If it's mine, it's his."

Emperor Zhaoyuan was heartbroken.

"Aren't you afraid that one day you will regret it?" He asked.

When Huo Wujiu heard this, he seemed to think of someone, his eyes drooped, and a smile appeared on his face.

"For him, never in this life."

-

Emperor Zhaoyuan still forced to see Jiang Suizhou.

Huo Wujiu procrastinated and didn't want to agree, but Emperor Zhaoyuan asked repeatedly, even bringing Huo Shu to intervene, so he had no choice but to talk to Jiang Suizhou.

Jiang Suizhou felt a little uneasy when he heard the words.But he also knew that since he returned to Yecheng with Huo Wujiu, he couldn't avoid this incident.

He agreed, and soon, the palace arranged the day.

Jiang Suizhou went to the palace for the banquet nervously, but he didn't expect that the meeting would go surprisingly smoothly.

Emperor Zhaoyuan didn't make things difficult for him, but entertained him with a pleasant face while dragging his sick body.During the banquet, he kept chatting with Jiang Suizhou about daily gossip, and he didn't officially open his mouth until after drinking for three rounds.

"I already know Wugui's plan." Emperor Zhaoyuan put down his wine glass and looked at Jiang Suizhou.

Jiang Suizhou sat upright, raised his head and looked at him squarely.

"So now, I want to ask about your plan." Emperor Zhaoyuan said.

Jiang Suizhou nodded seriously: "Excuse me, Your Majesty."

Ever since he and Jiang Suizhou met face to face, Emperor Zhao Yuan has been quietly observing his every word and deed.Unlike Huo Wujiu who was used to being reckless since he was a child, there is a kind of deep-rooted upbringing in him that has been cultivated since childhood.

It doesn't look like a fake.

Emperor Zhao Yuan looked at him and asked slowly: "I already know about your relationship with Wu Jiu. If Wu Jiu is the one who sits on the throne in the future, I don't have to worry about it. But if it is you, how do you plan to balance the front court and the harem?" ?”

Hearing this, Jiang Suizhou smiled lightly.

"It's nothing to go to the harem." He said, turning his head to look at Huo Wujiu.

"Throughout the ages, which emperor did not need to use the harem to check and balance the previous dynasty?"

"If the harem is really used as a bond of interest, then the ones cultivated are nothing more than foreign relatives." Jiang Suizhou said softly. "It's really unreliable to tie a woman in the harem and use the depth of the relationship with the emperor as a fetter. What's more, I want to try it and move the stage for women from the harem house."

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him quietly, motioning for him to continue.

"Just like General Lou. Although he has no son, his daughter has shown his talents in the army and served the court. Miss Lou is a rare general and a minister of the court. General Lou has a heart in his heart, so naturally he is more loyal. Serve your life. This kind of bond must be stronger than the in-laws who are bluntly involved."

Emperor Zhaoyuan pondered for a while, and said: "It's shocking to the world, you dare to think about it."

"It's just trying and dreaming." Jiang Suizhou said.

"Then have you ever thought about who will be the successor after a hundred years?" Emperor Zhaoyuan asked.

Jiang Suizhou continued: "The Huo clan will definitely have excellent offspring, so you don't have to worry about me and General Huo."

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him for a moment, and Jiang Suizhou looked at him calmly without showing any timidity.

After a while, Emperor Zhaoyuan laughed.

"This is the first time I've heard these words. Your late emperor taught you to deviate from the old ways." He said.

Jiang Suizhou lowered his eyes, Quan Zuo admitted.Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him, then at Huo Wujiu who was frowning and hesitated to speak, laughed a few times, and picked up the wine glass on the table.

"I'm just asking," he said. "Anyway, I don't have a job for a long time, so it depends on your plan how I will make trouble in the future?"

-

When the banquet was over, it was already the second watch.

The curfew in the palace is strict, and it has already been locked at this moment.Emperor Zhaoyuan arranged a place for the two of them, Huo Wujiu shunned the other palace people, walked back alone with Jiang Suizhou.

"What does your uncle mean by saying that?" Jiang Suizhou couldn't help asking.

Huo Wujiu squeezed his hand into his own: "What he means is that he is very satisfied with you."

"Really?" Jiang Suizhou didn't quite believe it.

"Naturally, what did I lie to you for?" Huo Wujiu glanced sideways at him. "Didn't you realize that there is a reason for what my uncle asked?"

Jiang Suizhou was taken aback: "What's the reason?"

Huo Wujiu stopped, turned his head, approached him with a smile.

"I'm afraid you will lose your heart." He said with a smile. "Those words are all stabilizing my position in the palace."

Jiang Suizhou laughed out loud: "Don't talk nonsense."

Huo Wujiu clicked his tongue: "Who is talking nonsense? On the contrary, you answered seriously."

"Of course we have to be serious." Jiang Suizhou said.

"I didn't realize that you still have so many thoughts about the affairs of the court?" Huo Wujiu asked while leading him slowly.

When Jiang Suizhou heard the words, he smiled and said, "It's quite deviant, isn't it?"

Huo Wujiu nodded, but shook his head again.

"What a deviant," he said. "At that time, whatever you say will be right, and if you don't listen to you, you will be deviant."

Jiang Suizhou smiled and said, "Where is it so easy?"

What he said just now was indeed from the heart, but he also knew that it was only because he understood the process of history in advance that he knew what was right and what was wrong in this era.But he also knows that the course of history cannot be forcibly changed. Even if he wants to make this era run more reasonably, he needs to do it step by step and slowly.

Huo Wujiu clicked his tongue.

"It's not easy." He said. "and me."

Jiang Suizhou looked up at him.

Seeing that Huo Wujiu shook his hand, he said: "I will guard the world for you, whoever dares to oppose and make trouble, I will punish him. Whatever you want to do, just do it, no matter what you do, I will do it for you Keep the peace."

He spoke firmly, Jiang Suizhou wanted to laugh, but when he met Huo Wujiu's eyes, his eye sockets were a little hot.

He looked at Huo Wujiu quietly.

In the past, because of his love for this period of history, he wanted to explore it and protect it.Later, with Huo Wujiu, he wanted Huo Wujiu to be safe and smooth in this time and space, even if the original historical track would be reversed.

He never told Huo Wujiu these words.

But Huo Wujiu never had the slightest doubt about his choice.

"What's wrong?" Huo Wujiu asked.

Jiang Suizhou said, "Close your eyes."

Huo Wujiu obediently closed his eyes: "What are you doing?"

The next moment, a warm and soft kiss slowly landed on his lips.

"I will protect you." Jiang Suizhou whispered against his lips.

Huo Wujiu was taken aback for a moment, then raised his hand and grabbed the back of Jiang Suizhou's head.

Before the kiss deepened, Huo Wujiu's low voice intertwined with Jiang Suizhou's breathing.

"I'll protect you too," he said.

-

As for why he likes history, Jiang Suizhou has long forgotten.

The time is too long, too long, he only remembers that in the long years when he was young, those obscure words accompanied him through many difficult times.

He shut the door, and the unkind siblings, the cold father, the weeping mother, all the quarrels and plots had nothing to do with him.

What is relevant to him is only those old times recorded in the text.

And when did this habit start, he had long forgotten.

It was an afternoon.

The sun was shining brightly, and it was a little hot on the body.

He was pushed down the stairs by his half-brother and was not allowed to go upstairs.None of the servants at home dared to take care of him, so he limped alone and crashed into his father's empty study.

His feet hurt badly, but he didn't dare to cry. In order to divert his attention, he had to pick up an upside-down book on the sofa and open it.

That book tells the story of a man.

That person, who had no mother since he was a child, is very powerful.When he was a minor, in order to protect his whole family, he led his troops to fight off the fatuous emperor and let his family sit on the throne.Later, in order to avenge him, the emperor crippled his two legs, but he stood up again, avenged himself, and unified the world for his family.

No one has ever helped him, and after doing this, he returned to the place where he grew up alone, as if he had never left there, but created a new peaceful and prosperous world.

Jiang Suizhou didn't know many characters at that time, and he couldn't even recognize that person's name.

But that was the first time he felt that the story of another person was so fascinating and interesting that he forgot the pain, and even felt the power from another person through the cold words for the first time.

From that time on, Jiang Suizhou liked reading and history, because he remembered the wonderful feeling of that afternoon.

But he never knew that the name of that book was "The Biography of Huo Wujiu".
