Long live the general

When Tao Jiamu came to see Huo Yi, apart from chatting with him about the recent situation, he also told him about the fate of those doctors Gao Gongzhi.

"Your Majesty seems to have killed a few doctors as a warning to others." Tao Jiamu said, "He's already been arrested? He's in prison. It's probably related to Liu Cheng."

Huo Yi frowned: "This? It's not very good. If you are convicted for your words, who will dare to speak in the future."

Tao Jiamu sighed: "I tried to persuade him, but His Majesty didn't listen. However, the group of doctors scolded him every day, and led other people to write articles. His Majesty has been unhappy with them for a long time."

"What's the use of killing this kind of person." Huo Yi leaned back and watched the light rain in the courtyard. After a while, he heard Tao Jiamu say: "Autumn is coming soon, when Prime Minister Liu is After the conviction, this matter will be settled."

"Thanks to you too..."

"Hey, I'll just take a pen." Tao Jiamu changed the topic and said, "Why is your place so?

"There are only three people in my family. Uncle Wang and the others are all familiar faces. I don't want to find other people." Huo Yi said with a smile: "Of course it's not as good as Brother Tao. There are dozens of younger brothers and sisters in the family." .”

Tao Jiamu rolled his eyes. His family has been passed down for a hundred years, and there are many rules. Before his parents meet, they have to go through several rounds of notifications.The head of the Tao family gave birth to dozens of children, some of whom could not even remember their names.

He asked curiously, "You have a niece, right? I haven't seen her yet."

"Xiaoyue, she's only nine years old this year, and she's pretty good." Huo Yi raised his head, just in time to see Huo Lingyue under the corridor, and beckoned her to come over.

Huo Lingyue also raised her hand, and ran over from the corridor bouncing across the courtyard, with a little moisture on her body.

"Why didn't you open it? The umbrella came running over, and her hair was wet." Huo Yi smoothed her hair up and said, "This? Uncle Tao Jiamu, my uncle's friend."

"Little uncle." Huo Lingyue looked at Tao Jiamu curiously, and let Huo Yi spread her braids.

Tao Jiamu scratched his head: "I didn't bring anything to see you? Face to face, Xiaoyue, I'll supply you next time."

Huo Lingyue blinked and said, "Thank you, little uncle."

She is a very good little girl, Tao Jiamu thought in his heart, and he asked casually: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, what are your plans? Forget it?"

"Let's train troops. I don't have any other plans yet."

"Mid-Autumn Festival, you should take Xiaoyue out for a walk." Tao Jiamu said: "Xixuan Temple has a temple fair on Mid-Autumn Festival, why don't you take Xiaoyue to play?" Xixuan Temple is the most famous Taoist temple in Chang'an City.

Huo Yi asked: "What about you?"

"I have to go back to Shu County." Tao Jiamu said, "I haven't been back for many years, and it just so happens that I have nothing to do now."

After Tao Jiamu left, Huo Yi thought about it, changed his clothes and prepared to go to Ziwei Palace.

He wanted to persuade the emperor that if he talked about it tomorrow when he was in court, it might be too late.

The rain gradually became lighter and lighter. After the notification, Huo Yi saw Zhou Zhenyan in the inner court. Seeing him coming in, he raised his head and smiled and said, "I have to seal you an official position in the inner court, so that you can do whatever you want. In and out of the inner hall."

Huo Yi quickly said: "The meritorious service established by the minister has already received enough rewards. Rewards and punishments are clearly defined. Your Majesty should not reward more than merit, nor should punishment be more than fault."

Zhou Zhenyan looked at him with a smile that was not a smile: "You mean to be a courtier when you say this."

Huo Yi raised his head and glanced at him. The emperor didn't wear a crown today, and his clothes were scattered on his body. He was looking at him with his chin propped up.

This kind of demeanor is not the demeanor of seeing a courtier, it is too casual.

"Okay, you came to see me today to intercede with those doctors?"

"Yes."

They both understand each other's meaning, so naturally there is no need to say too much, Zhou Zhenxie sighed: "I am really annoyed by this group of people. When I think about paying them salaries every month, I will It's even more annoying."

"Then relegate them all and drive them out of Chang'an City." Huo Yi made a suggestion: "Your Majesty, scholar-bureaucrats cannot tolerate views different from theirs, but Da Yue is different, and Da Yue can accommodate everything."

The emperor could insist on overturning the case, convict Prime Minister Liu, and put Gao Gongzhi and others in prison, but he couldn't kill them just because of a moment of anger.Relegating some people is an appropriate measure.

This? It is compromise and balance.

The emperor's power is unlimited, but how to use this power correctly to make things go according to his ideas, Zhou Zhenyan is well versed in the skills of maintaining balance among them.

The sound of rain came through the palace. Zhou Zhenyan knocked on the desk, looked at the wet scene outside the window, and then asked, "What do you think of dispatching troops in August?"

Huo Yi: "It's too hot. The Da Yue cavalry wear heavy armor, while the Xiongnu soldiers wear light armor. In August, wearing heavy armor can't even go to the Huns' territory."

Zhou Zhenxie asked, "What kind of light armor did the Huns wear?"

Huo Yi described that the Xiongnu's armor was indeed more suitable for cavalry, and it was a better forging technique than Dai Viet.

Hearing Huo Yi say that the Xiongnu's smelting and forging technology is better than that of Dayue, Zhou Zhenzhen felt unbelievable at first, and then a deep anger and anxiety welled up in his heart.

In terms of smelting technology, Dayue was actually inferior to the Xiongnu.

Huo Yi continued: "The Xiongnu have a kind of arrow called Mingdi. The arrow will make a sound to mark the target. There is also a layer of iron under their horseshoe to protect the horseshoe."

He gave Zhou Zhenyan a rough drawing of a horseshoe. Zhou Zhenyan frowned and thought for a moment, and said, "We can call together craftsmen from all over the world to build an arsenal to manufacture and update these weapons."

Zhou Zhenxie added this matter to the to-do list. Naturally, money is needed to run the arsenal.

The next day, Zhao Cheng's investigation had been settled, and Zhou Zhenyan reversed Huo Fengnian's case in the court hall, and he was still called the general.Liu Cheng got along to death, implicated several people in the previous dynasty, and dismissed dozens of doctors.The emperor planned to make Taiwei Murong An the prime minister, but Murong An resigned but refused.

At the same time, Zhou Zhen appointed Huo Yi as General of the North, regained control of the Northern Army, and planned to go to the Northern Expedition again in March next year.

Huo Yi bowed his head and accepted the order.

After the court, Zhou Zhenyan called Zhang Laiqian and Huo Yi to the apse alone to discuss the arsenal.

Huo Yi and Zhou Zhenyan already had a rough plan. The arsenal was specially used to store weapons, and a group of craftsmen were called together to find ways to make weapons and armor more suitable for cavalry.The cost of this arsenal is very high, but Zhou Zhenyan never cares about the cost when it comes to training cavalry.Rather than letting the soldiers take risks on the battlefield, he obviously prefers to have an advantage in equipping weapons.

Zhou Zhenxue sketched for a long time, and asked Zhang Laiqian how much money he would need to do this.

Zhang Laiqian coughed, and said wearily: "Sorry, it rained yesterday and caused a cold, I will go back and calculate it at the Agricultural Department before handing it over to His Majesty."

Huo Yi felt a little guilty by what he said. From the beginning of the Northern Expedition, it was Zhang Laiqian who was busy before? After busy, after returning, winning rewards, and pensions for family members were things that the emperor said, but Zhang Laiqian was the one who made the overall planning.

Zhou Zhenxue looked at his expression carefully, and said, "Let's find an imperial doctor to have a look."

Zhang Laiqian: "Thank you, Your Majesty, it's just a small cold, there is no need to bother the Imperial Medical Office..."

Zhou Zhenyan said without doubt: "Let's take a look and prescribe some better medicine, and leave the overall plan to me tomorrow... the day after tomorrow." He then said with concern: "Pay attention to your health, Da Sinong."

Zhang Laiqian's face turned pale.

Huo Yi: Your Majesty, do you think you are sympathetic to your subordinates?

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Huo Yi took Huo Lingyue to Xixuan Temple to visit the temple fair.Although after taking over the entire northern army, Huo Yi was busier than before, but on the day of Mid-Autumn Festival, even the emperor did not work. The so-called universal celebration, Huo Yi also let it go for a day.

Now that the Northern Army is stationed outside Chang'an City, it has multiple functions. Zhou Zhenyan intends to separate the function of maintaining Chang'an law and order separately. Therefore, Huo Yi has to allocate a large part of the infantry, and then add more cavalry. ? Northern Army.

At the temple fair, there were a lot of tourists, jostling shoulder to shoulder. People walked through the bustling and festive temple fair with smiles. There were row upon row of small stalls on both sides. In addition to vendors, there were also acrobatic performers. The foot of Xixuanguan Mountain was extremely lively.

During the Xia Dynasty, although there was also the Mid-Autumn Festival, people did not celebrate the gathering on this day.After a hundred years of development in the Dai Viet Dynasty, the people became richer and richer. Only after the family had food reserves, did they have the thought to gradually hold the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The news of the victory of the Northern Expedition made the atmosphere of this Mid-Autumn Festival more intense. Presumably this news will inspire the people of Dai Viet for a long time.

Huo Yi took his little niece by the hand, and Cong Yunmeng said that she didn't want to go out and walk around, so they could just let the two of them play by themselves.

On the side of the road there was a sugar figurine painter, Huo Lingyue was standing in front of the booth? A child next to her was chirping, saying, "Draw me General Huo!"

Huo Lingyue suddenly turned to stare at him, the child blushed a little, and added in a low voice: "General Huo who defeated the Huns."

The peddler who sold the sugar man laughed, and began to draw the sugar man quickly. He must have heard too much about General Huo tonight, and he is already familiar with driving.

After the kid next to him took General Huo and left, Huo Lingyue said to the stall owner, "I want General Huo too."

"Xiaoyue" Huo Yi changed into a moon-white robe today, his demeanor was completely different from the cold and stern look he had on the day he returned to the city, even the stall owner didn't recognize him: "Don't make trouble."

"Little uncle, aren't you shy?" Huo Lingyue chuckled, and said to the stall owner: "Pinch another horse, General Huo really likes his horse."

The stall owner followed suit one by one, and added a horse under the sugar painter "General Huo".At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice came: "Let's pinch Captain Qiu again!"

The stall owner looked up. He was a very handsome young man who was also very expensively dressed.At first glance, he was a son of a million-dollar family, with the golden light of "I'm super rich" shining all over his body.

"...Who is Captain Qiu?" the stall owner asked in a low voice.

Huo Lingyue laughed out loud, Qiu Hongguang often came to Huo's mansion to eat, and often told her stories on the battlefield.Compared with Huo Yi's bland narration, his experience is obviously more soul-stirring and exciting.

They've gotten along pretty well.

Qiu Hongguang pointed at himself: "You can pinch it as I do."
