Chang'an City, in Weiyang Palace.
After serving the urinal to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Sang Hongyang, the servant, presented a good thing.
"What is this?" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty frowned slightly, picked up the thing he offered, pulled it gently, and tore it in half.
present.
Liu Che was displeased and asked: "Is this cloth? How can it be of such poor quality!"
Sang Hongyang was so frightened that he hurriedly explained: "No, no, your Majesty, this is not cloth, but toilet paper for use after going to the toilet. It is a single-use utensil that replaces folk toilet paper. At present, it is very popular among princes in Chang'an City. Loved by the rich.”
"Oh?" After hearing Sang Hongyang's explanation, Liu Che became slightly interested and said, "How to use it?"
"It can be folded in half to increase the thickness for use." Sang Hongyang replied cautiously.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty frowned slightly and asked, "Are you trying to say something by offering this thing today?"
"Your Majesty is wise!" Sang Hongyang first clapped his hands at the dragon's fart, then nodded slightly and said: "Wei Chen believes that if this thing can be included with the Yantie official policy and promoted to major cities and towns across the country, it can at least be Increase fiscal revenue by 10%.”
"What? 10%?" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty couldn't help but take a closer look at the toilet paper, and then asked: "Are you sure that this kind of thing can earn so much income?"
"Your Majesty, I am good at calculating. Last night, I calculated it carefully and it was 10%!" Sang Hongyang bowed.
After hearing this, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also became somewhat interested in this thing.
Sang Hongyang noticed the change in the emperor's demeanor and immediately said: "But there is a problem."
"What's the problem?" Liu Che frowned slightly.
When Sang Hongyang heard this, he said: "This thing came from the general shogunate. There is only one shop selling it in the whole city and even the entire Han Dynasty, and it is named Qingfeng Xiangyin."
"The specific production techniques are unknown."
"If you want to fully promote Heguanying, you must first ask the general's mansion for the production method."
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che frowned. After all, something that can increase fiscal revenue by 10% really makes him very excited.
But the problem is!
After all, toilet paper is not the same as salt and iron. How to tell Wei Qing?
While Liu Che was thinking about this matter, the eunuch came to report: "Your Majesty, Hussar General Huo Qubing is asking for an audience!"
Huo Qubing?
Why did he come to see me at this time!
Liu Che frowned slightly, thinking that it would be hard to let the Cavalry General know that he was discussing something about his uncle, so he asked Sang Hongyang to put away the toilet paper.
Then, he said to the eunuch: "Let him come in."
"promise."
After the eunuch retired, Huo Qubing walked in. After a strange salute, he said, "Your Majesty, I have a favor to ask of you."
"What's going on, General Hussar?" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked with a smile.
to be honest.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would be in a good mood every time he saw Huo Qubing. Compared to Wei Qing, there is nothing more than friendship between the king and his ministers.
But Huo Qubing was different.
There is not only a relationship between the two of them, but also a kind of father-son relationship.
Why did Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty favor this general?
It is more likely that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che already regarded it as the incarnation of his expedition to the Xiongnu.
As the emperor, he cannot command and conquer at will.
then.
I can only pin my youthful passion on Hussar General Huo Qubing. Because when he looked at Huo Qubing, he felt like he was seeing his younger self.
When Huo Qubing heard Emperor Wu's question, he replied: "I have a foolish younger brother, Huo Guang. Because his views are different from those of Dong Gong, he inadvertently contradicted me, causing Mr. Dong to expel him from the Mongolian School. I want Huo Guang to go back and continue his studies for the future." I can serve His Majesty."
Mengxue was the later private school.
Its role is equivalent to current primary education.
"Huo Guang..." Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty muttered, and the clever and witty kid who liked to play tricks appeared in his mind.
correct.
This little guy also cheated him of a lot of money, saying that he was going to start a business.
I don’t know what the trick was.
Thinking of this, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty looked at Huo Qubing and asked doubtfully: "What does General Hussar mean?"
"I dare not make any demands. I only hope that your majesty can reconcile the conflicts. Dong Gong is a great scholar in the dynasty and has great prestige. Only if your majesty speaks can my foolish brother continue to learn and listen to lectures." Huo Qubing immediately said with his hand.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty frowned slightly, looked at Huo Qubing and said, "You, Huo Qubing, dare to talk to me like this!"
When Huo Qubing heard this, he immediately lowered his head.
Although he was favored by His Majesty, he was also afraid that his words would offend His Majesty.
after all!
Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.
But Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was not angry, and just said: "That's all, who asked me to search through the entire Han Dynasty, and you are the only twenty-year-old general!"
"I have passed down my oral instructions to appoint Dong Zhongshu as Huo Guangshi, hoping to train him to become a talented person so that he can contribute to the country and the country."
Huo Qubing was overjoyed when he heard this.
With the words of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Huo Guang is Dong Zhongshu's legitimate disciple.
His identity is not just a general's disciple.
at the same time!
He is also a disciple of Confucianism.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Huo Qubing bowed again and said happily, "I will tell Huo Guang the good news now."
"Go, go, go..." Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty waved his hand repeatedly to let him leave.
That is, starting from this day!
Huo Guang became completely busy and had no spare time on weekdays.
His brother wants him to learn martial arts well, so he must practice! Mr. Dong asked him to do his homework, so he must do it! I still have business to be busy with, so I have to be busy!
In addition, the opening of Goulan Tingqu is imminent.
Time... seems to be a bit short.
certainly!
Compared to someone who was severely beaten by his father, he was much happier.
this day.
When Huo Guang left the general's mansion, he saw the guard and his wife whom he had not seen for several days. So he immediately came forward to say hello and said: "Hey, old cousin, I finally see you. Are you going to study in Mengxu today?"
However, with the support of the guard, Mr. Wei turned his head to the other side and said with a bit of resentment: "Who is your cousin? Go away!"
ha?
What did Mr. and Mrs. Wei eat? Why are you so angry?
To this!
Huo Guang could only frown and asked, "Old cousin, what's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong? You have the nerve to say what's wrong? If you hadn't said something about me kneeling down to the villain in front of my father that day, why would I be beaten like this?" Mr. Wei was very excited. If it weren't for the guard's support, he wouldn't have said it. Come up and bite Huo Guang.
But it's normal for him to be so angry.
That day!
Originally, under Shen Youjia's protection, he, a good old boy, was able to avoid being punished by his father.
Unexpectedly, Huo Guang mentioned kneeling, which made Wei Qing, a majestic general, feel that his reputation had been disgraced and he wanted to beat Wei and his wife to death on the spot.
As a general, his son is so spineless!
Can he not be angry?
So that day, the whole night in the general's mansion was filled with the tragic sounds of the guards killing pigs.
When Huo Guang heard that this was the case, he quickly explained: "Hey, then I just wanted to say a nice word for you. Who knew it would be self-defeating."
"snort..."
Mr. and Mrs. Wei turned his head away again, ignoring Huo Guang.
Huo Guang had no choice but to shrug, and the two of them walked towards the elementary school run by Dong Zhongshu.
The snow is still falling, but the snow on the streets in the city has been shoveled away. At this time, a luxurious fleet of businessmen passed by the two of them.
In the carriage, a young girl lifted the curtain, revealing half of her beautiful face.
"Sang Qian, is this the city of Chang'an? It looks much more prosperous than my hometown in Luoyang." The girl said with some excitement.
But Sang Qian, who was sitting in the carriage, scolded: "Sister, you have to understand the superiority and inferiority, you know? When you talk to me, you have to call me brother, don't call him by his first name!"
However.
The girl made a face at this.
"Slightly, slightly..."
