Long live the general

Chapter 71 Changan Dragon and Phoenix

Tao Jiamu was worried about Huo Yi's situation, but he could also see that he couldn't interfere with it before the horoscope was written.

……If you have the chance, let’s try to persuade him. How many powerful generals do you have to be a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households? Well, getting personal with the emperor? Feelings will only attract bad reviews.

Scholars in the world? How can there be anything good to say about the man who serves the king in Israel?

As time goes by, more and more people are on the street, as if all the people in Chang'an City have flocked into the temple fair.Two years after Zhou Zhenxie ordered the truce, the people lived in peace and stability, and soon showed a scene of prosperity. Even this time, the Mid-Autumn Festival was extraordinarily grand, and the autumn harvest was just around the corner. This year is a A good year.

The resilience of the people is actually very strong, as long as they are given a little chance to breathe, they will grow like weeds in the crevices of rocks.

Everyone just wants to have a good time.

Zhou Zhenzhen and Huo Yi first strolled all morning, and in the afternoon they found a restaurant, and the store brought them some fresh things, all of which were specialties brought over from the West.With the construction of the Hetao area, the commercial routes gradually stabilized, and more and more western specialties were transported to Chang'an City.Although Dai Viet does not have a large plain with abundant water and soil, the food production is always limited.But Dai Viet's advantage lies in its large land area, spanning mountains from east to west, north to south, and basins near the sea. It has a complex and complete geographical environment, so all kinds of exotic seeds from the west and south can be cultivated here.

Sitting in a restaurant in Chang'an City, you can eat food from the Western Regions. Zhou Zhenxie peeled off the skin of the grapes to reveal the crystal clear flesh inside. He said thoughtfully: "Besides Dayue, there are many more? Something we haven't seen before."

The grapes are actually a bit sour, Huo Yi narrowed his eyes slightly because of his sour teeth, and said, "Yes."

"Just the distance from the Hetao area to the countries of the Western Regions, there are so many things that I have never seen before." Zhou Zhenyi said with emotion: "In the west, south, and the sea On the other hand, I don’t know what else.”

Huo Yi swallowed the grapes, and said: "If you want to go out to sea, the current boats can only operate in the near sea. If you go far away, you will lose your way."

"What about the southwest direction?" Zhou Zhenxie asked.

"Bandits are rampant in the southwest." This is also a problem left over from history. Huo Fengnian went to the southwest to suppress bandits in his early years, but with little success. Huo Yi said: "...you must have never seen southerners? Fighting, over there The situation is rugged, and in order to occupy the highlands and granaries, there are often group fights, which are more fierce than the army. Moreover, the family power is rampant, united by blood ties, the clan is very powerful, and the government doesn't care live."

"Can't control it?"

"That's right, maybe the current situation will be a little better." Aiming at the separation of the local government from the central court and the confrontation with the clan forces at the local level, Gongsun Yang has taken some measures, which may be useful , but the specific effect is hard to say.

Zhou Zhenxie drank a cup of tea slowly, and suddenly said, "Thieves Town is in the southwest, right?"

"Well, Xiangma Town is located under Jiaojun." Huo Yi said, "Jiaojun is close to Shujun. This time I'm going south, I'm going to pass Shujun."

Zhou Zhenxie: "Brother Huo is from Shu County?"

"My mother is, I stayed in Shu County for a long time when I was a child." For him, the childhood memories are far away, and sometimes he even doubts the authenticity of the memories, as if he had experienced them in his previous life: "Tao Jiamu and I have known each other since we were young. His family has inherited the inheritance of farming and studying, and we have a good relationship. But at that time, I didn't have a good relationship with him. We just knew each other. After getting along for a long time, we became friends now."

Sour bubbles appeared in Zhou Zhenyan's heart. He was jealous that Tao Jiamu had known Brother Huo longer, so he pretended to be relaxed and said, "It would be great if I could meet you sooner."

Huo Yi said with a smile: "I was stupid and stupid when I was a child, and it was not a good thing. Your Majesty might be disappointed after seeing it."

This is the first time for Zhou Zhenxi to meet someone else? He even forgot to remind Huo Yi about his address when he judged himself so much.

Huo Yi felt emotional, and then said: "I've been doing stupid things all the time. Every time I think about it at night, I toss and turn. Tao Jiamu is different. He seems to be very calm and smart since he was a child. I'm a rough guy with a gun and a stick? It's different, so he couldn't hang out with us at that time either."

Zhou Zhenxuan asked: "This? How do you say it?"

"Although Tao Jiamu came from a family, he lived a very simple life and enjoyed reading. When he was young, he visited many places in Da Viet with his elders, and saw how those people lived. He was very I had an idea a long time ago, when I come here to this world, I must leave something behind, so that others will know his name in the future, not a certain Patriarch of the Tao family."

"He has a compassionate heart." Huo Yi said: "It's been like this since childhood. He can't see others? Suffering, worrying about others? Worrying about others, and often crying for some strange reasons. At that time, our group How can the little kid know what he is thinking? He thinks he is a little crying bag..."

There was another interesting story about Tao Jiamu when he was a child. At the beginning, the Tao family raised two geese. Later, when they were entertaining guests, the head of the Tao family killed one of the geese. Tao Jiamu fainted from crying on the spot and did not eat dinner.

In contrast, when Huo Yi was five or six years old, he even stole duck eggs from someone else's house in the pond. His behavior was so bad that he felt ashamed every time he thought about it.

Huo Yi touched his nose: "So we couldn't play together at that time, but now everyone has changed a lot, but we can get along very well."

Zhou Zhenxue: "How did it change?"

"Everyone? Has become mature." Huo Yi said: "After going through a lot of things, people will always change."

For example, Tao Jiamu now has learned to control his overly strong empathy.

"But there are also people who don't change their nature no matter what they go through." Zhou Zhenyan said, "I think Ting Wei Zhao Cheng is like a rock."

He is a bit too rigid and easy to break. He is also an idealist, but he is more extreme than Tao Jiamu.

Huo Yi was actually a little worried about him.

In contrast, Qiu Hongguang was much better. Although he was a lunatic on the battlefield, he never caused any trouble in his daily life.

They just chatted in the restaurant all afternoon, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. As Huo Yi said, if the two of them had no disparity in status, they could indeed become friends who would talk about everything.

Huo Yi has always admired young people with ideas and action, such as Qiu Hongguang, Zhao Cheng and others. In fact, among the young people, the best one should be Zhou Zhenyan.

Zhou Zhenyan and Huo Yi didn't leave the restaurant until the sky gradually darkened. The two of them walked side by side to Xixuan Temple, and the lanterns on both sides were lit up one by one like a shadow.

Zhou Zhenyan looked up at the Xixuan Temple hidden in the dark night, and his whole being was immersed in a comfortable and pleasant atmosphere.Like is really a strange feeling, it can make people feel full from the heart, just walking together, even if you don't say anything, don't do anything, it makes him feel like floating on the clouds feel.

This kind of happiness is almost the same as when he learned that the Northern Expedition had won.

If the two have the same mind, this feeling will definitely be better.

When Zhou Zhenyan stepped on the stone steps, he glanced to the side. It happened that Huo Yi also turned his head. The two of them met slightly, and Zhou Zhenyan looked away first.

Look at what I do... Zhou Zhenyan thought to himself, still sneaking around.

A strange atmosphere surrounded the two of them, and Huo Yi fell silent.

He felt that Zhou Zhenyan today was different from before.

The two of them slowly walked up to the West Xuan Temple, those?

When Zhou Zhen went up, the master of Xixuan Temple came out to greet him personally, and welcomed this group of people into the lobby.

The imperial guards cleared the venue, including those noble children who were also taken out. Zhou Zhenzhen offered incense under the personal auspices of the temple master. Huo Yi sighed in his heart about the privilege of the privilege, and went up to get it. Incense, the person who gave him incense? It was Taoist Tingchen.

Huo Yi bowed three times, and Taoist Master Tingchen asked, "How is the benefactor sleeping?"

Huo Yi smiled and said, "Don't you know how to count?"

"...This? It's not worth my guessing." Daoist Tingchen waved his hand.

Huo Yi smiled: "Thank you, Taoist priest, for your concern. It's much better now."

"Think less, how many years can you live." Taoist Tingchen said.

Zhou Zhenyan watched the two of them talking, walked over and asked, "Who is this Taoist priest?"

"Tingchen Daoist is very famous in Xixuan Temple." Huo Yi thought to himself, Tingchen Daoist is good because he is especially good at the technique of Qihuang. Son? Give the Eight Classics to others? What does it matter.

He himself said before that medical skills save lives, Taoism saves hearts, and saving hearts is more difficult than saving lives.

Listening to Daoist Master Chen performed a Taoist etiquette to Zhou Zhen, with a respectful but not humble attitude: "Your Majesty, there is a thousand-year-old ginkgo tree in the east of Xixuanguan, and many people have written messages and hung them on the tree. Look over there. The fireworks at night are also very suitable.”

Zhou Zhenzhen was really interested when he heard this, the attendant went over and took two pieces of red paper, one for each of Zhou Zhenzhen and Huo Yi.

The two walked to the east again. As soon as they left, those high-ranking officials and common people who were stopped were let in. Some people? Noisily? There is no sound anymore.

Under the ginkgo tree, Huo Yi wrote a sentence on the red paper, looked up and saw Zhou Zhenyan staring at him curiously, Huo Yi also looked over to Zhou Zhenyan, Zhou Zhenyan subconsciously hid , said: "Hang up."

Two adjacent red papers were hung up, and when the wind blew, they rubbed against each other, making a small sound.

Zhou Zhenyan looked at it for a while and asked, "What did you write?"

Huo Yi smiled: "I just pray that the people of the country will live in peace, and that my family members will live a safe life." He couldn't think of anything more. The power and wealth that everyone was looking for was within his reach.When burning incense in the Taoist temple, he also thought of this?

Zhou Zhenxie nodded, wanting Huo Yi to ask him a little bit, but he didn't want the other party to know that he only wrote two words on the red note just now, and nothing else? Unexpectedly, he simply hung it up.

Sure enough, Huo Yi didn't ask much, the two of them stood under the ginkgo tree, and how many people around them surrounded them for vigilance. His Majesty the emperor who only heard his name in Ziwei Palace.

There are more and more lights below, like stars in the sky reflecting the world.Huo Yi thought of the last Mid-Autumn Festival, which was also so lively. He met Zhang Laiqian in Xixuanguan, and the two passed by His Majesty the Emperor in the crowded crowd.Then winter came and suddenly froze the entire Dai Viet Empire. At that time, the people on the northern border were panicked, and rumors spread everywhere in Da Viet.But then, the snow disaster ended, the Taixue Palace was established, and everything settled down. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival is another year of reunion.

Huo Yi couldn't help turning his head to look at Zhou Zhenyan. He was the one who suffered the most from the snow disaster last year. Now Zhou Zhenyan is looking at those under the lights? All living beings, I don't know what he will think.

The world Zhou Zhenyan saw must be different from the world he saw.

At this time, Zhou Zhenyan was thinking very simple, and it had nothing to do with the world and the court.

He just feels that the atmosphere is very rare now, making people feel that if they don't talk now, they won't have a chance in the future.

So even though Zhou Zhenyan was unprepared, he still couldn't help but said, "Brother Huo, you..."

"Brother Huo!!" A loud voice came from behind, Huo Yi turned his head in response, and saw Qiu Hongguang leading Huo Lingyue and the children waving at them. Surprisingly, there was another Tao Jiamu.

Tao Jiamu and Qiu Hongguang also knew each other, after all, they were both permanent residents of the Huo Mansion.

Tao Jiamu's complexion is a little bit? It's hard to say, Qiu Hongguang doesn't know anything, but Huo Lingyue runs over directly and throws himself into Huo Yi's arms.

Huo Yi caught her and said with a smile, "Are you coming up too?"

"Hmm." Huo Lingyue's eyes were shining brightly. Although it was fun to play with her friends, seeing Huo Yi here made her even happier: "A Taoist priest asked us to come here and said that there are fireworks to watch." .”

Huo Yi let go of her, and waved to Qiu Hongguang and Tao Jiamu.

"This? How did you recognize me?" Huo Yi asked.

Qiu Hongguang said: "I don't need to look at your face to recognize you. Where are you standing? I knew it was you." He pointed to Tao Jiamu and said, "When we came up, we met Brother Tao. He sat on the steps and couldn't walk..."

Tao Jiamu gave a low cough, interrupting his words? Then he saluted Zhou Zhenyan and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty."

Only then did Qiu Hongguang realize that His Majesty the Emperor was next to him, and he hurriedly saluted, and several children also joined him.Zhou Zhenyan had a complicated heart and couldn't say a word, so he waved his hands so that they don't have to salute.

Tao Jiamu's eyes drifted away from Huo Yi and Zhou Zhenyan.

Qiu Hongguang foolishly told Huo Yi what they encountered at the temple fair.

After a while, Huo Lingyue pointed to the two people beside him? Ying, and asked in a low voice: "Is that Lord Ting Wei and Da Sinong?"

Huo Yi looked over, although the night was a bit blurry, but under the faint light, there were indeed Zhao Cheng and Zhang Laiqian over there.

He waved his hand over there, Zhang Laiqian saw it, and pulled Zhao Cheng over. Zhao Cheng looked a little unwilling, and his face was still a little stiff when he came over.

Corresponding to this is the little sugar man in his hand?.

"I didn't expect you to be here too." Zhang Laiqian touched Huo Lingyue's head, and said happily, "I met Mr. Zhao down there just now, so we came up together, haha, today It's a lively night."

"There are also a lot of people offering incense." Qiu Hongguang said that some bad things happened last year, and everyone prayed for a better future.

"That's right, that's right, a priest asked us to come here to watch the fireworks. I didn't expect to see you." Zhang Laiqian glanced over, landed on Zhou Zhenyan's face, and froze for a moment: "...Your Majesty ?”

In the dark night, Zhou Zhenyan was wearing normal clothes, really? It was hard to recognize.

Zhou Zhenyan was already used to it, so he waved his hand so that he didn't have to be polite.

There were not many people in this group, and Zhao Cheng stood at the outermost edge, unwilling to join the conversation.Tao Jiamu was worried, and Qiu Hongguang and Zhang Laiqian had a lively conversation. If there were no children and His Majesty here, the topic might have been diverted from the gold and silver things all the way to the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion.

Huo Lingyue held Huo Yi's hand, and at night, when the wind picked up, Huo Yi took off his outer robe and put it on Huo Lingyue.

Huo Lingyue asked him: "Uncle, when will the fireworks start?"

"Soon." Huo Yi said.

Zhou Zhen said: "Today's fireworks are more beautiful than before."

As soon as he finished speaking, the fireworks suddenly exploded.

Everyone? stopped and looked up.

Zhou Zhenxue still felt a little sad. Today's fireworks were prepared by his orders, and they were not at the same level as before.He originally wanted to watch the fireworks with Huo Yi, but now...he looked around, and there were already people standing around Huo Yi.

Ugh……

Sure enough, nine out of ten unsatisfactory things in life will happen to him.

The sky is like a pitch-black canvas, on which colorful fireworks smear gorgeous colors, and the color is fleeting, and when the stars fall, it almost makes people feel a sigh from the bottom of their hearts, but? Soon, another firework rose suddenly?, exploded, and split into sparks all over the sky, stretching endlessly.

Huo Yi suddenly looked at Zhou Zhenyan.

This time? It was fair and bright, but Zhou Zhenyan was watching the fireworks. Those? Colorful lights fell on his eyes, and his chiseled face had a hazy beauty in the flickering sparks.Tonight, he took off his aura as an emperor, so that Huo Yi noticed his face.

Huo Yi has seen many good-looking young people, not to mention Qiu Hongguang and others, those? There are also good-looking young people in the picture scrolls sent to Huo's mansion, but only now did he realize that Zhou Zhenyan's facial features and outline Also excellent.

It was the kind of beauty that dazzled him, almost took his breath away.
