As the king of Dong'an, Lou Yu naturally has a mansion in the capital, but the mansion is still under renovation and cannot be moved in immediately.

He still lives in the lodge.

This time he enjoyed the top treatment.

All the utensils and food in the hotel are the most high-end in the capital, and no one dares to neglect the prosperous Dong'an King.

Lou Yu and Huo Yan took each other back to the hotel.

As soon as he entered the room, Lou Yu took him by the hand and said with a smile, "Your Majesty has promised to reverse the case for the Huo family."

Huo Yan's eyes trembled slightly, he hugged him suddenly, buried his face in his neck, and couldn't say anything for a while.

Lou Yu patted him on the back, and said in a warm voice: "When the two generals have their grievances cleared, we can find a place with a treasured geomantic omen for them to be buried in a beautiful place. There are also two wives, both of whom are full of frost and snow, and have a rich heart and a rich heart. , how can you live outside the storm pavilion?"

Huo Yan hugged him even tighter, his voice was deep and astringent: "A Yu, thank you."

How lucky he is.

When he was at the end of the road, it was Lou Yu who swung his sword back to Japan and gave him endless hope; when he was in a panic, it was Lou Yu who gave him guidance and helped him regain his former faith.

It can be said that without Lou Yu, there would be no him now.

For Huo Yan, the person in his arms is not only Bo Le, who has shown him the kindness of knowing him, but also the Qing Qing who he regards as the most precious thing.

There is no way he will ever let go.

Lou Yu smiled and said, "You say thank you?"

Huo Yan let go of him, his eyes were dark and deep, and asked: "Then will you promise me with your body?"

"You are mine now, what else can you promise?" Lou Yu couldn't help teasing.

To put it inappropriately, Huo Yan's deed of sale is still in Lou Yu's hands, so it can be said that Huo Yan is indeed Lou Yu's person.

Huo Yan leaned close to his ear and said softly:

"I would like to be a dog and a horse, and I am willing to be a reed."

Dogs and horses are loyal, and reeds and reeds rely on jade.

Lou Yu laughed: "After the Huo family overturns the case, do you still want to face the world as a servant?"

He never regarded Huo Yan as his servant, and the deed of sale was never destroyed, but it was because neither of them ever cared about it.

Huo Yan replied: "What other people think has nothing to do with me?"

He can't become a double lotus with Lou Yu, but if he can be closely linked with a contract, it can be regarded as a different kind of white-headed contract.

Lou Yu kissed him, but with a touch of water, he broke up instantly.

"When the Huo family is rehabilitated, I will restore the free bodies of A Xuan and A Qiong."

Huo Yan's eyes brightened slightly.

"what about me?"

Lou Yu approached him again, with the tip of his nose touching, and a smile in his eyes.

"As for you, just be my Jianjia for the rest of your life."

The final sound is submerged between the lips and teeth.

The next day, there was a light rain in the capital.

Huo Yan escorted Lou Yu to court.

In Guangde Hall, Lou Bing sighed that there was no one in the court, and asked the courtiers if they had any good strategies.

Tang Cheng took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that many state officials have contributed to Qin Wang's work before, such as Fan Yusheng, the prefect of Cangzhou, Duan Heng, the prefect of Huzhou, etc. They all responded to the call of King Dong'an to participate in the King Qin. Yangchun has feet, and the water does not flow. Now the imperial court needs such a pure and honest minister!"

The ministers: "..."

Tang Cheng's thoughts were on the bright side, but it was impossible to refute.

Tang Cheng didn't know Lou Yu well, so he always felt that Lou Yu could become the so-called King of Dong'an only because of the assistance of the Fan family and the Huo family.

Wen has Fan Yusheng, Wu has Huo Erlang.

Fan Yusheng inherited the training from the court when he was young, and got Fan Wenzai's true biography, so he must have the ability to rule the world; Huo Erlang is the son of Huo Yi, and his abilities are all derived from the training of the Huo family.

With these two people, why would Lou Yu worry about not achieving great success?

If you want to kill Lou Yu, you must first cut off Lou Yu's wings.

This is naked conspiracy.

If Lou Yu refuses to agree, it means disrespecting the court; if Lou Yu agrees, not only will he lose his minister, but it will also make people feel chilling.

Everyone looked up at King Dong'an, waiting for Lou Yu's response.

Lou Yu chuckled suddenly.

"Your Majesty, I think that General Tang is right."

Lou Bing was stunned for a moment, looking at Lou Yu with some confusion.

He thought Lou Yu was going to argue with Tang Cheng.

Tang Cheng raised his eyelids, did Lou Yu agree so easily?

Everyone was also surprised, so they heard Lou Yu say:

"There is a lack of good ministers in the court, so it is a good way to transfer them from the local area. The minister suggested that the prefects of Yizhou, Laizhou, and Jiangzhou be transferred to Beijing as officials. During the period when the prefects of these three prefectures were in power, they were all in power. Right, it’s really overkill.”

Everyone: "..."

Are you talking nonsense with your eyes open?

Tang Cheng frowned: "These three people..."

"Is there something wrong with these three people?" Lou Yu asked puzzled, "They all have made great contributions to the king, why should General Tang favor one over the other?"

He said solemnly: "To be honest, Fan Yusheng has only been an official for two years, and his qualifications are not enough; during Duan Heng's administration, he caused floods in Huzhou several times, and General Tang should not be praised like this."

Tang Cheng: "..."

Lou Bing couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

His younger brother can always find a way to stop Tang Cheng, and at first glance it sounds completely reasonable and there is no loophole.

Lou Yu looked down at Tang Cheng and smiled at him.

He also has to thank Tang Cheng for making this suggestion.

As the queen of Dong'an, he is bound to deepen his control over the eight states.

Lou Yu was thinking about how to get rid of some incompetent and unloyal officials, Tang Cheng handed him a pillow.

How could he not thank you?

Tang Cheng couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, the more he got to know Lou Yu, the more he felt that Lou Yu was a slippery person.

Since there is no way out for the civil servants, let's go to the generals!

The Huo family's reversal of the case was a foregone conclusion, and it didn't make any sense for Tang Cheng to continue to object.

It's better to take yourself out of this matter first, and then find other things.

After the early dynasty ended, Lou Bing issued an edict and spread it to the rest of the state capitals including Jiangzhou, Yizhou, and Laizhou, and transferred a dozen officials to Beijing to take up important positions.

After Lou Yu returned to the hotel, he wrote a letter explaining the personnel arrangements.

Many of his subordinates have been able to stand on their own after experience.

Since he is in charge of the eight states, he naturally hopes that the eight states are all his own.

Now that three are transferred, he needs to make up for three.

Wei Si served as the prefect of Yizhou, Shen Hong served as the prefect of Jiangzhou, and Lu You served as the prefect of Laizhou.

In addition, Fang Lin took over the magistrate of Cangzhou, and Lou Yu planned to transfer Fan Yusheng to the Qingzhou General Yamen as the deputy head of the Yamen.

When the General Yamen was established, there was one head of the Yamen and two deputy heads of the Yamen.

Lou Yu is the head of the yamen, and one of the deputy heads of the yamen is Yang Guanghuai, and there has been no suitable candidate for the other.

Fan Yusheng has practiced in Cangzhou for two years, and his ability is not bad, so it is reasonable and reasonable to be transferred to be the deputy head of the Yamen.

Lu You was originally just a small secretary in the Gyeongju government office. After following Lou Yu, he has been learning continuously, and now he has become a member of Lou Yu's staff.

But he has been working around the Ministry of Industry, and he couldn't fully tap his potential, so he was sent out to be the magistrate for a few years just to exercise.

The same is true for Shen Hong.

However, there are still many engineering projects under the hands of these two people that need to be solved urgently. In the next few days, the tasks on their shoulders will be very heavy.

Fortunately, in the past few years, Wei Si and the others have cultivated a lot of manpower, plus the talents attracted by Fan Wenzai before, after these people are transferred, there will be suitable people to replace them.

Lou Yu wrote the letter and sent it back to Gyeongju quickly.

At the right time, Feng Erbi came to report: "Your Highness, the King of Yue sent someone to invite you to come over, will you go?"

"King Yue?" Lou Yu was surprised, "What did he ask me for?"

After King Qin finished, King Yue did not leave the capital, but stayed in the hotel just like him.

He had nothing to do with the King of Yue, and the King of Yue was not a big threat to him, so Lou Yu didn't take the King of Yue seriously.

He was a little curious about what King Yue wanted him for.

So he changed into loose casual clothes and took Huo Yan with him to the invitation.

The courtyard where King Yue lived was not far from Lou Yu, but he arrived in a short while.

As soon as the two of them entered the room, King Yue just stopped writing.

"King Dong'an, you came just in time, come and see how my writing is doing, and see if I can be published in the newspaper."

Lou Yu: "..."

He was dragged to the table by the enthusiastic King Yue, but in desperation, he had to bow his head and read the manuscript written by Lou Zong.

Lou Yu has seen Lou Zong's literary talents before, and is no stranger to his writing style.

This article is only a few hundred words, with various quotations from scriptures, borrowing historical examples of "the master's achievements are overwhelming, and the bird's bow is hidden", fully expressing the author's melancholy and lamentation.

Lou Zong stared at him and asked, "How is it? Can it be published in the newspaper?"

Lou Yu shook his head with a smile: "The main idea is too biased, so I can't make it."

"Really can't get in? I think my writing is pretty good." Lou Zong said depressedly, "Forget it, if I can't get in, I'll burn it!"

After all, he actually threw the manuscript into the charcoal basin.

When he was in front of the Tianshu Gate, Lou Yu found that the King of Yue was interesting, and now he is even more interesting.

The irony in front of Tianshu's gate forced Tang Cheng to retreat fifty miles, and now he uses this article to remind himself vaguely.

Needless to say, it was well-intentioned.

Lou Yu smiled and asked, "I don't know why Uncle Yue is looking for me?"

Lou Zong invited him to sit down, poured tea for him, and said with a long sigh, "I invited the King of Dong'an here to give you a suggestion."

"Appreciate further details."

Lou Zong looked at Huo Yan who was behind Lou Yu, with a look of embarrassment on his face, implying something.

Lou Yu raised his eyebrows: "He's mine, but it's okay to say, Uncle Yue Wang."

Lou Zong: "..."

He sighed: "It's my private matter, so it's inconvenient for outsiders to hear it."

Lou Yu replied directly: "He is not an outsider."

Lou Zong: "..."

Why is the king of Dong'an so ignorant of the world?

Huo Yan's surname is Huo, why is he not an outsider!

Lou Yu could see that he was speechless, but he didn't care.

He said: "If Uncle Yue Wang is inconvenient to say, then there is no need to say it."

Lou Zong had no choice but to say: "Okay, I will say."

He asked with a bitter face: "King Dong'an, there is one thing I have never understood. Why did you publish such a story in the newspaper?"

Lou Yu was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect King Yue to say this at all.

"Any questions?"

Lou Zong sighed deeply: "You don't know, just because of this script, the princess and I got a little unhappy, and I feel aggrieved."

Once the chatterbox was opened, he couldn't stop it.

"Also, that script is too insulting to us men, isn't it? Why do you want to promote such a script?"

Every time an issue of "Gyeongju Xunbao" comes out, King Yue will buy a copy. Every time he reads it, he will yell at him, but he will continue to read it every time.

Lou Yu pretended to be puzzled: "Why does this story make Uncle Yue and Wangfei unhappy?"

Lou Zong waved his hand, "I won't talk about this for now, I just want to know, can I not report it?"

"No." Lou Yu said firmly.

Lou Zong couldn't understand: "You are also a gentleman yourself, so you really don't feel humiliated?"

Lou Yu looked indifferent: "The story is just a fictional story. You are so angry just by reading a story. Have you ever thought about women who are experiencing these things in person? I think the conflict between the princess and you is the source of your anger. Here it is?"

"But didn't our ancestors all come here like this?" Lou Zong frowned, "Women take care of the inner house at home, and men go out to earn money to support the family. This is the rule of our ancestors."

"For thousands of years, the so-called ancestor's rules have been changed many times. Why can't this rule be changed?"

"That's because women can't live on their own..."

"I have thousands of female workers in Qingzhou, and there are also women working in the yamen. They can all support themselves, and they are no worse than men." Lou Yu paused, "According to your logic, is it true that the man in the script takes care of the inner house?" Should?"

Lou Zong: "..."

Lou Yu continued to ask: "I don't know if Uncle Yue has a young daughter at his knees?"

"Have."

Lou Yu sincerely suggested: "Why don't Uncle Yue try to treat everyone equally, teach Xiao Lang what he teaches, and teach the little lady in the same way."

"Why?"

"No reason, it's just an experiment, it's up to Uncle Yue to listen or not."

It's not that Lou Yu has never seen someone like Lou Zong.

Not to mention the ancient times with outdated thinking, just take the era before him as an example, there are still many narrow-minded people.

Lou Yu doesn't like to persuade people with long speeches, the change of concept doesn't happen overnight, he doesn't want to waste his words.

"Uncle Yue, is there anything else? I'll take my leave first."

"Wait!" Lou Zong came back to his senses and hurriedly called him to stop.

Lou Yu sat down again.

"King Dong'an is nearly eighteen now? I wonder if there is a marriage?" Lou Zong said, "The concubine's natal family has a niece who is twenty-eight years old. She is outstanding in appearance and quite talented. If..."

"May I ask, does this lady know martial arts?"

"will not."

"Can you walk through Yang with a hundred steps?"

"will not."

"Can you lead troops to fight?"

"of course not!"

"Can you carve?"

"……Won't."

"Can you correct it?"

"..."

Lou Yu said with a smile: "If that's the case, then it's not appropriate."

Lou Zong was a little confused.

He couldn't help asking: "A woman, why would she do this?"

"But that's what I like." Lou Yu stood up and said, "It's hard to buy my liking. Uncle Yue Wang doesn't understand this truth, does he?"

Lou Zong: "..."

Always feel that something is not right?

Lou Yu bowed his hands and said goodbye.

On the way back to the yard, Huo Yan stared at him without blinking, forgetting to pay attention to the road under his feet.

Lou Yu turned his head, met his burning starry eyes, and couldn't help laughing: "What are you looking at?"

"Look at your sweetheart."

Huo Yan blurted out.

Lou Yu was amused by his stupidity.

"Does it look good?"

"nice."

Unique beauty, no one in the world can match.

Just now, Lou Yu asked Lou Zong a few questions, each of which made his blood boil and his heart burn like fire.

Lou Yu raised the corners of his lips and stopped to stare at Huo Yan.

"My sweetheart is also very good-looking."

Huo Yan's heart burned, if he hadn't been outside, he would have lost control.

A few days later, under the pressure of the new emperor and King Dong'an, the old case of the Huo family was finally solved.

Huo Yi's crime of embezzling ink and giant silver was fabricated and framed by the rebellious minister Du Qian. Huo Yi was loyal and courageous, and never betrayed the court!

It's just a pity that none of the evidence found can directly prove whether Tang Cheng participated in the frame.

Tang Cheng picked himself clean.

But in any case, it is a good thing that the Huo family was rehabilitated.

On November [-]th, Lou Bing issued an imperial decree to clarify for the Huo family, and granted Huo Yi the posthumous title of "Wu Zhong", and Huo Dalang and Huo Shun the posthumous title of "Wu Yong".

He bestowed upon the two wives the title of "Mrs. Yipin".

This matter was also published in the "Gyeongju Xunbao", which quickly shocked the world and caused an uproar all over the world.

"I have long said that General Huo is not that kind of person, and now the truth is finally revealed!"

"It's really a pity for the Huo family. If General Huo Yi was still around, how could the world have become so chaotic?"

"The Huo family is full of loyalty, and finally the loyal ministers and good generals are innocent!"

As Huo Yi's son and Huo Shun's younger brother, Huo Yan naturally received everyone's attention.

It was no secret that he served the King of Dong'an.

In the morning, Tang Cheng said in front of everyone: "Your Majesty, I believe that since the Huo family has been rehabilitated, as descendants of the Huo family, Huo Yi's son Huo Yan and Huo Shun's son and daughter should be treated kindly. "

Lou Bing asked: "How does Tang Aiqing think she should be treated kindly?"

Tang Cheng said: "I think that the reason why King Dong'an has made great contributions this time is inseparable from Huo Yan's bravery and skill in fighting. The Huo family was originally a minister of the court, and now that the stigma is gone, it is better for Huo Yan to inherit it." The lintel of the Huo family, serve the imperial court!"

All in all, Huo Yan can be an official in the court, and he no longer has to be driven by the King of Dong'an!

Lou Bing and the officials all looked at Lou Yu.

Lou Yu's expression was light: "General Tang's words are justified. Since he wants to inherit the Huo family's lintel, it is better for him to inherit the will of his father and brother and command the [-] Northwest Army to defend our Dasheng frontier!"

If you dig a corner of my wall, I will tear down your entire wall!

Tang Cheng: "..."

Most of the Northwest Army used to regard Huo Yi as the God of War. Later, Huo Yi was charged with crimes and beheaded. A small group of extremely loyal soldiers escaped from the Northwest, and the rest were not so firm.

Tang Cheng was originally Huo Yi's lieutenant general. After he became the commander in chief, he quickly won people's hearts and turned Huo's army into Tang's army.

But it was only four years.

The worship of Huo Yi in the hearts of the soldiers has not completely disappeared. If Huo Yan is really allowed to go to the northwest, maybe his efforts in the past few years will be in vain.

Tang Cheng naturally didn't want to see such a situation.

He said: "The northwest frontier town is very important. I think that Huo Yan is still young, so he might not be able to take on this important task."

"General Tang is really inconsistent," Lou Yu sarcastically said, "It's you who said he was brave and good at fighting, but you who said he couldn't take on this important task. You have to tell the truth and the irony."

"It's no different than King Dong'an disregarding the stability of the border." Tang Cheng did not give in.

Lou Yu wrote lightly: "If General Tang really cared about the stability of the border, he wouldn't let only [-] troops remain in the northwest."

Tang Cheng choked up.

The [-] soldiers he brought with him when he was king were indeed still stationed in the Gyeonggi area.

The ministers: "..."

They have seen the words of King Dong'an, and this General Tang is also true. He has been defeated and defeated repeatedly.

To put it bluntly, I really rushed to scold.

Tang Cheng didn't want to, but he had to do it.

Lou Yu is well-known, if he is allowed to continue, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not overwhelm himself, he has to cut off his influence as much as possible.

It's just that this Dong'an King is more slippery than he imagined.

Tang Cheng was defeated several times, and he was not without frustration in his heart.

Back in the mansion, he called for a military adviser.

"There are obstacles ahead, what should I do?"

The military master said: "Try your best to break it, no matter what method you use."

Tang Cheng shook his head and smiled wryly: "If I can break it, why should I be suppressed by him?"

Every time he went up to the court, Lou Yu sat on the steps, but he could only stand below, this feeling made him extremely aggrieved and depressed.

The military adviser suddenly laughed and said: "The general doesn't need to destroy his own prestige. Doesn't it mean that the boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge?"

"You have a solution?" Tang Cheng's eyes lit up.

The military teacher said: "General Huo Yi's high integrity is known to the world. If his son chooses to degenerate in order to save his life, what does the general think?"

"You mean Huo Yan? He is willing to degenerate?" Tang Cheng was puzzled.

The military adviser smiled mysteriously: "The general will know when he sees someone."

"who?"

"His surname is Zhang. He was sent by Emperor Huizong to Qingzhou with an edict."

Tang Cheng became interested: "Hurry up and bring someone up to meet you!"

A moment later, a white-faced and beardless man was brought up.

If Lou Yu was here, he would definitely recognize that this is Angel Zhang who once went to Gyeongju to announce the decree!

Compared with the rich state before, Angel Zhang is now extremely thin.

He knelt tremblingly in front of Tang Cheng, bowed down and bowed down: "The villain pays homage to the general!"

Tang Cheng asked, "What's your name?"

"The villain's name is Zhang Jixiang."

Tang Cheng said with a gentle expression: "I heard that you came to my house today, do you have important information to tell me?"

Zhang Jixiang said with resentment on his face: "General, the villain just wants to tell the general about the affair between King Dong'an and Huo Yan!"

The trip to Gyeongju a few years ago left a great shadow in his heart, but he had always regarded it as an accident before.

Shi Ming invaded the imperial city, and Huizong hanged himself to death. He escaped from the palace in a panic, hiding his treasures.

He pretended to be an ordinary citizen and planned to live in the capital like this.

It wasn't until Prince Qing's crusade came that he realized that everyone had been deceived by Prince Qing!

Zhang Jixiang has never been so sober.

What refugees, what bandits, everything was arranged by Lou Yu in advance!

All the hardships he has suffered are all thanks to Lou Yu!

However, with his current status, he has no way to avenge this great revenge.

After the Qing army entered the city, he was in despair.

But later Tang Cheng brought the prince back to Beijing, giving Zhang Jixiang great hope.

He has been in the inner court for many years, and has somewhat of a political sense, and he can almost see the confrontation between Lou Yu and Tang Cheng at a glance.

Zhang Jixiang then made up his mind and came to Tang Mansion to surrender.

Tang Cheng's eyebrows twitched: "What do you mean? Personal affair?"

Zhang Jixiang smiled deeply: "At the beginning when Huizong ordered the villain to pass on the decree, King Dong'an and Huo Yan staged a big show in front of the villain, making the villain and Huizong mistakenly think that Huo Yan has become a prostitute."

"Since it's acting, doesn't it mean that the two of them have no personal relationship?" Tang Cheng frowned, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Zhang Jixiang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Three people make a tiger, and one mouth makes money. Even if it is fake, it can become real."

"It makes sense." Tang Cheng analyzed carefully, "The Huo family is stubborn, if they fall into such insulting rumors, they will subconsciously distance themselves from Lou Yu. If Lou Yu becomes suspicious because of this, it's naturally the best; If not, we can secretly provoke his suspicion."

The military adviser praised: "The general is a good plan. After the two suspect each other, they will try to separate each other, and they will surely break an arm of King Dong'an!"

They never thought that Huo Yan and Lou Yu really had an affair.

The temperament and image of the Huo family are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and Huo Yan and Lou Yu are not soft-spoken people, how could they be willing to do that kind of thing?

Tang Cheng's eyes widened, he clapped his hands and sneered.

"Just do it!"
