Speaking of chicken in modern times, there are two hidden meanings.
One is overalls, the kind that is parted in the middle.
The other is a nickname for skin and flesh practitioners.
The era that Huo Guang lives in now is the Han Dynasty two thousand years ago, or the Western Han Dynasty as historians call it.
Huo Guang's words, "Why do you look like a chicken?" immediately confused Sang Mei.
After thinking for a long time.
Then she said in a puzzled tone: "The chicken you are talking about is the poultry with a pointed beak and a big red crest on its head?"
"oh."
Huo Guang said lightly and did not explain much.
This made Sang Mei so angry that she closed her eyes tightly and clenched her little fists tightly.
From the way her body was trembling slightly, it could be felt that this little girl probably wanted to pounce on Huo Guang and bite someone.
But it took a long time.
He didn't see the little beauty being impulsive. She just continued to clench her fists, turned around, and walked out of the house angrily.
Huo Guang saw her walking out and asked quickly: "Hey, what are you going to do?"
"go home!"
Sang Mei said angrily.
However.
Huo Guang didn't intend to chase her, but just said calmly from behind: "Hey, didn't you have a lot of fun just now? Why are you clamoring to go home?"
"Ah!"
"woman."
As soon as these words came out, Sang Mei was even more angry. She immediately stopped, pointed at Huo Guang and yelled: "You bastard!"
Huo Guang shrugged and said, "Haha, is this your first time meeting me?"
Upon hearing this, Sang Meiren stamped her feet angrily, and then ran out without looking back.
See each other and leave.
Huo Guang then called a maid and said, "Just follow the young lady of the Sang family and see that she returns to the Sang Mansion safely."
"promise."
The maid agreed to Huo Guang's words and immediately followed the steps of Sang Mei who went out in front.
And Huo Guang himself.
Then he continued to stand where he was, looking at the scenery as if nothing had happened.
Wait until Sang Qian comes back.
Huo Guang saw that Sang Qian had taken so long to come back, and immediately said: "Why does it take you so long to go to the toilet? I thought you fell into the pit, and I was ready to send someone to fish you out."
Sang Qian laughed and said, "Marquis Bo Lu was just joking. He just went to the toilet. How could a normal person fall into the toilet?"
Huo Guang shrugged and said, "That's not necessarily true. Does Alang of the Gongsun family know? This guy fell into the latrine in our general's mansion last time."
"Oh, I've heard about this too. Legend has it that he jumped in voluntarily." Sang Qian also laughed, and with a smile, he found that his little sister was missing.
A trace of doubt immediately arose.
He deliberately found an excuse to leave, leaving the two of them a chance to be alone.
Why did you come back?
The little girl is missing again?
Thinking of this, Sang Qian asked: "Marquis Bo Lu, where is my little sister?"
"Your sister?" Huo Guang scratched his head and said without blushing: "It seems that something happened and you came home."
"Go home? Why does she want to go home?" Sang Qian suddenly became inexplicably angry.
However.
Huo Guang said: "As a woman, there are always a few days every month. Just go back when you get back, and I won't delay your fun."
However, Sang Qian became anxious and said, "No, if she goes home, then isn't my father and I's visit today in vain?"
"Come for nothing? What do you mean?"
Huo Guang stared at Sang Qian thoughtfully, feeling furious when he saw him.
But he didn't ask any further questions. He just turned his gaze to one side and said melancholy: "Sang Qian, didn't you like raising those little animals in the past? Do you still raise them now?"
When Sang Qian heard this, he immediately shook his head in shame and said, "That was all in the past. Now I have stopped raising small animals."
actually.
Sang Qian himself felt blushing when he said this.
If it weren't for Huo Guang's triumphant return on a big black horse, Sang Qian might still be raising those little animals!
and
This is what happened two days ago.
But Huo Guang was indifferent to these, and just asked lightly: "Since Brother Sang won't raise small animals in the future, what have you thought about what to do in the future?"
Sang Qian replied: "Be an official!"
Huo Guang nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, your father Sang Hongyang is one of the nine ministers of the imperial court. It is not an exaggeration to give you a small official position!"
However.
Sang Qian smiled and said: "What's the point of being a small official like that? If you want to be a high official, you can become a high official who can stir up the situation in Chang'an!"
Hearing this, Huo Guang immediately pushed Sang Qian to a place to stop.
Then he was dozens of steps away from him!
After doing this.
Huo Guang then said: "Brother Sang Qian, remember, please keep this distance between you and me."
Sang Qian didn't understand, so he asked, "What does Bo Luhou mean?"
Huo Guang shook his head and said: "It's not interesting, it's just pure fear. If one day thunder falls and hits you, and I will be unlucky too, that will be bad."
Sang Qian smiled and said: "Bo Luhou, what you say is not like your style!"
"It's not my style? What's my style?" Huo Guang asked in confusion.
Sang Qian replied: "Isn't your style of not fearing risks and being bold?"
Huo Guang snorted softly and said, "You're so daring to fart!"
"correct."
"Brother Sang Qian, let me ask you, your Sang family came to visit the General's Mansion today, are you trying to get your little sister to marry me?"
Sang Qian immediately smiled and said, "Did Marquis Bolu see it?"
Does this still need to be seen?
When Sang Hongyang asked him if he had any engagement, even a blind man could sense the Sang family's intentions.
not to mention.
Not only was Huo Guang not blind, his eyesight was also very good.
Huo Guang was not unhappy with Sang Mansion's behavior, but he felt that at his current age, he was too young to marry a wife and have children.
This one is small.
Not just in terms of age.
After thinking about it.
Huo Guang then spoke and continued: "Of course I can see such an obvious thing."
"to be honest!"
"I don't like being in arranged marriages. If I like someone, I will mention it myself. Your behavior will only disgust me."
After hearing Huo Guang's statement, Sang Qian explained: "Bo Luhou, if you and my two families get married and become joint partners, it will be very beneficial to our opponents in the officialdom in the future."
Huo Guang shook his head lightly and said, "Is it beneficial to your Sang family?"
"The six princes of the Wei family are already extremely noble. At this time, the best development is to stay the same."
"If we go further!"
"There is a danger of beheading at any time."
"The dangers in officialdom are not something you can experience now."
"Sang Qian, if you really want to enter an official career, you may not be able to survive with just these two moves!"
In a feudal dynasty, the greatest centralizer can only be His Majesty.
What would happen if the people under my command became more powerful?
It will definitely affect the imperial rule!
Since ancient times.
The conflict between the prime minister and the emperor continued.
Why?
It is because the prime minister has so much power that even in the Han Dynasty, the prime minister was truly the second emperor.
Second Emperor!
Which real emperor can endure this?
Especially for a powerful ruler like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he should not tolerate the influence of his ministers and the existence of suppressing imperial power.
so.
During the period of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty.
Being a prime minister is a high-risk profession, and too many civil servants died at the hands of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
The general is not the prime minister.
However, his subordinates often held military power and were even more feared by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
If anyone is not careful.
His death will be worse than that of the Prime Minister.
Fortunately, Wei Qing behaved according to the rules throughout his life and never exceeded etiquette.
This made it possible that while the general was alive, nothing happened to the Wei family.
Huo Guang later analyzed many official affairs for Sang Qian. However, this did not scare Sang Qian.
Just listen to Sang Qian say: "Bo Luhou, of course I know the dangers in this officialdom. But if there are dangers, if you are afraid of being cowardly and afraid to move forward, then this person will definitely not become a great person!"
"Just like you were on the battlefield in Mobei, fighting with the general against the Huns."
"Isn't there any danger?"
"If you were afraid and didn't go, how could you have the opportunity today to be made a marquis by His Majesty?"
Hearing this, Huo Guang could only shake his head and said: "You kid, you are really intolerant!"
"Forget it, it's up to you."
"I don't want to interfere too much in your affairs."
After hearing this, Sang Qian laughed and said, "Don't be angry, Marquis Bolu. I know you mean well, but do I also have my own ambitions?"
Huo Guang raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Brother Sang Qian, didn't you tell me before that your ambition was to circle a place and raise a lot of small animals?"
Hear the words.
Sang Qian smiled awkwardly and said, "Why does Marquis Bolu keep bringing me up? This is so boring!"
Huo Guang nodded and said, "Okay, let's not mention it then."
See this.
The two looked at each other and smiled, walking in the General's Mansion admiring the flowers, plants and trees.
After a while.
Sang Qian suddenly asked: "Marquis Bolu, my sister's appearance is considered to be very good-looking in Chang'an City. Although you are the Marquis of Bolu, my sister is also the daughter of a great peasant order. The marriage between the two families does not mean it is an insult to you." Reputation?"
See Sang Qian and ask this question again.
Huo Guang wanted to say it was too young and wait a moment.
But Sang Qian kept struggling with this issue, so he said, "Because I have someone I like, but I won't tell you who it is."
When Sang Qian heard this, he immediately said: "So, it's my Sang family, Meng Lang."
after.
Sang Qian remained silent.
He seemed to be thinking about something and making a decision.
See this.
Huo Guang asked curiously: "Brother Sang Qian, what are you thinking about?"
Sang Qian pondered for a moment, and finally seemed to have made up his mind and said, "I'm sorry to hear that Marquis Bolu said that he has the person he likes. I guess he will marry her in the future, right?"
"It's not good though!"
"But fortunately, my sister is a very traditional girl!"
Is your sister a very traditional girl?
ha?
The more he heard these words, the more wrong he became, so Huo Guang asked: "Brother Sang Qian, what do you mean?"
Sang Qian said calmly: "My sister can be a little girl!"
If Huo Guang was drinking water or eating at this time, he would definitely sneeze at Sang Qian's face when he heard Sang Qian's words.
Good guy.
I’ve only heard of people cheating on their father and son.
I didn't expect that one day.
Huo Guangneng met the man who cheated his sister with his own eyes. He patted Sang Qian on the shoulder and said, "Brother Sang Qian, listen to me. It's better for you to be honest and raise pigs."
"real!"
"Yue Lao's status is not suitable for you."
"Yue Lao?" Sang Qian frowned in confusion.
Huo Guang explained: "It's people like you who want to bring two people together."
Sang Qian said solemnly: "Marquis Bo Lu, I am serious, not joking."
Huo Guang shook his head helplessly and said: "A twisted melon is not sweet. Brother, why don't you understand this?"
Sang Qian asked doubtfully: "Isn't it sweet?"
Huo Guang nodded and said with a very positive attitude: "It's not sweet!"
Hear the words.
Sang Qian showed a strange expression, as if to say, how do you know if the strong melon is not sweet?
I saw Sang Qian speak again: "Bo Lu Hou, you have to eat it to know whether it is sweet or not. How about Bo Lu Hou try it first?"
Huo Guang suddenly became furious and cursed, "Aren't you just fooling around?"
"I can try melons, but can people?"
"Stop speaking. If you speak again, I will crush you!"
It doesn't make sense for people who are like brown sugar to be moved by emotion and reason.
Only force can make the other party listen.
really.
After being fiercely threatened by Huo Guang, Sang Qian didn't mention it again.
Wait until later.
After Sang Hongyang finished talking to General Wei Qing, the Sang family father and son stood in front of the General's Mansion and said goodbye to the General.
Since the other party said that he was here to congratulate him on being awarded the title of Bo Luhou, he should stand beside General Wei Qing to say goodbye to the guest.
At this moment.
Sang Hongyang noticed that his little sister who came with him was not there, so he asked, "Sang Qian, where is your sister?"
Sang Qian glanced at Huo Guang first, and then said: "Dad, my little sister is feeling ill. She will go back to her house to rest."
Sang Hongyang said, "What's the matter with my little sister? She's a guest at the general's residence and she leaves without saying goodbye. She's not polite at all."
Regarding his father's harsh criticism, Sang Qian just spread his hands and didn't care.
It’s not him you’re talking about anyway!
After Sang Hongyang finished talking about his little sister, a smile suddenly appeared on his face and he said to Wei Qing and Huo Guang: "General, and Marquis Bolu, thank you for your hospitality today."
"I hope you two will come to my house as guests in the future."
"Sang will entertain you two well."
General Wei Qing replied politely: "Okay, okay, I will definitely go next time, I will definitely go next time."
The words fell.
Sang Hongyang took Sang Qian back in a four-person sedan.
Because of Jiang Chong.
Horse-drawn carriages were banned, and the means of transportation in the city naturally became sedan chairs.
The Sang family came from a merchant background and had no shortage of money. They were also the great farmers of the current dynasty, so traveling in a sedan chair was naturally a normal thing.
Huo Guang felt slightly relieved as he watched the Sang family leave.
Don't be afraid of thieves stealing, just be afraid of thieves missing you.
The Sang family all paid attention to him, which was something Huo Guang had never thought of.
At this time.
Another sedan stopped at the gate of the general.
The person who came out of the sedan chair was Bu San.
Seeing Busan coming to the front door of the mansion, he first shouted to the general: "I've seen the general."
"Um."
The general nodded.
The general looked familiar to this domestic slave who had followed Huo Guang to Chang'an, so he didn't say anything.
Huo Guang asked directly: "San'er, if you don't take care of business in the restaurant, why did you come to the general's mansion?"
Bu San leaned close to Huo Guang's ear and said, "Sir, Li Gan, the man you asked Jin Yi to supervise in the Li Mansion, went out with his sword today and is on his way to the General's Mansion."
"What? He's here?"
