Emperor Zhaoyuan was stunned for a moment before he realized what Huo Wujiu was talking about.

"...Send someone away?" Zhaoyuan Emperor repeated.

Huo Wujiu nodded, his natural appearance looked particularly righteous.

"Yes." He replied.

"You..." Emperor Zhaoyuan was about to get up in a hurry, almost choking with a cough. But Huo Wujiu's hands and feet were quick, and before he coughed out, he already stepped forward and raised his hand to help him.

"You can't mess around!" Zhaoyuan said anxiously when the breath cleared.

"No nonsense." Huo Wugui replied.

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him suspiciously.

Huo Wujiu stopped his hand and said, "Since it was given, it must be a fair deal. The person who accepted it must certainly be worthy of this task."

"Who is it?" Emperor Zhaoyuan asked.

Huo Wujiu said nothing.

Emperor Zhaoyuan was even more anxious.

"You at least tell me, who is that person?" he said.

Huo Wujiu looked at him quietly.

Emperor Zhaoyuan stared at him for a long time, suddenly remembering something, and quickly sat up.

"I came back with you, Nanjing's Jiang... Jiang..."

"Jiang Suizhou." Huo Wujiu nodded and admitted.

"You...!" Emperor Zhaoyuan became angry for a while and was speechless.

He stared with anger, and Huo Wujiu stood there leisurely, as if he had made a decision early and let the other party deal with it.

Emperor Zhaoyuan knew that Huo Wujiao was stubborn, and no one could change the decision. He was so angry that he reluctantly opened his mouth after half a day: "You should know his identity!"

"I know." Huo Wujiu nodded solemnly.

"Then how do you explain to the people of the world!" Emperor Zhaoyuan said anxiously, beating the bedside.

After a moment of silence, Huo Wujiu spoke.

"I can only fight, my uncle knows." He said.

Emperor Zhaoyuan gasped for breath and did not speak.

"I am impatient to deal with civil officials, and I don't know how to govern the country in time, and my uncle also knows." Huo Wujiu continued.

"But…"

"Success is easy, but it is hard to keep merit." Huo Wujiu said. "I know this truth, and I understand it, but now that I am full of fame, if I am not careful, it will all disappear, leaving only infamy."

Emperor Zhaoyuan wanted to refute him, but he knew that he was justified. He opened his mouth, and after a long time, he sighed deeply.

"It is Suizhou who wants to take this burden for me." Huo Wujiao continued. "He is smart and has plans. He wants to see peace in the world more than I do. He didn't want this title, but said that as long as I wanted to do it, he would help me."

When Emperor Zhaoyuan heard this, he raised his eyes to look at him.

"But, I want to give him the name." He said. "It should be him who is admired by all people, and it should be him who is praised for future generations."

"What about you?" Emperor Zhaoyuan asked.

"Me?" Huo Wujiu paused and smiled at Emperor Zhaoyuan.

"I assist him, I will guard the world for him." He said.

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him.

He watched Huo Wujiu grow up, but he had never seen Huo Wujiu like this. He also knew why Huo Wujiu could say such a thing.

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him with trembling eyes. After a long time, he said again: "You should know that the most unreliable thing in the world is love."

Huo Wujiu did not speak.

"The throne thing, if you give it away, you won't be able to take it back again. But sincerely, you can take it back at any time. You are now trading the throne for his sincerity, how can you know that his sincerity can stay with you for the rest of your life?"

Huo Wujiu lowered his eyes.

"I can't promise." He said.

"so…"

"However, I can guarantee that my sincerity will be with him for the rest of my life." Huo Wugui said.

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him in surprise.

Huo Wujiu raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes firm and his tone indifferent.

"I didn't really want to exchange the throne for him. The throne is just a gift for me. My whole person, my whole life, I have been handed over to him for the rest of my life. This throne is not important anyway, anyway. It’s mine, and it’s his."

Emperor Zhaoyuan was heartbroken.

"Aren't you afraid of regretting one day?" he asked.

When Huo Wujiu heard this, as if thinking of someone, his eyes fell and a smile appeared on his face.

"For him, never in this life."

Emperor Zhaoyuan still forced to see Jiang Suizhou.

Huo Wujiao dragged his feet and didn't want to agree, but Emperor Zhaoyuan repeatedly asked, and even brought Huo Shu to intercede, so he had no choice but to talk to Jiang Suizhou.

When Jiang Suizhou heard this, he felt a little nervous. But he also knew that since he had returned to Yecheng with Huo Wujiu, he couldn't avoid this incident.

He agreed, and soon the palace arranged the day.

Jiang Suizhou entered the palace nervously for a banquet, but he didn't expect that the meeting went smoothly.

Emperor Zhaoyuan didn't trouble him, on the contrary, he dragged the sick body and entertained him kindly. At the banquet, he kept chatting with Jiang Suizhou about daily gossip, and he didn't officially open his mouth until after three drinks.

"I already knew about the blameless plan." Emperor Zhaoyuan put down his wine glass and looked at Jiang Suizhou.

Jiang Suizhou sat in a precarious manner, looking up at him straightly.

"So now, I want to ask about your plan." Emperor Zhaoyuan said.

Jiang Suizhou nodded seriously: "Your Majesty, please."

After he met with Jiang Suizhou, Emperor Zhaoyuan had been observing his words and deeds silently. Unlike Huo Wujiu, who has been accustomed to being arrogant since he was a child, he has a deep-rooted education that he has cultivated since childhood.

It's not like a fake.

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him and asked slowly: "I already know your relationship with Wugui. If you will sit on the throne of Wugui in the future, I don't have to worry about it, but if it is you, how do you plan to balance the front and the harem? ?"

Jiang Suizhou smiled faintly when he heard the words.

"Nothing to face the harem." He said, turning his head and looking at Huo Wugui.

"Throughout the ages, which emperor did not need to use the harem to check and balance the previous dynasty?"

"If you really use the harem as a bond of interest, then those who are trained will only be foreign relatives." Jiang Suizhou said warmly. "Tethering a woman in the harem and using the depth of the relationship with the emperor as a fetter is really unreliable. What's more, I also want to try something to remove the woman's stage from the harem courtyard."

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him quietly and motioned for him to continue.

"Just like General Lou. Although he has no children, his daughter has shown her skills in the army and served the court. Miss Lou is a rare general and a minister of the court. General Lou has a memory in her heart, and she is naturally more loyal. Serve. This kind of fetters must be more reliable than the blunt in-laws."

Emperor Zhaoyuan pondered for a long while, and said, "It's shocking the world, you dare to think about it."

"It's just experimentation and fantasy." Jiang Suizhou said.

"Then have you ever thought about who will succeed in the country after a hundred years?" Zhaoyuan asked.

Jiang Suizhou continued: "The Huo clan will definitely have excellent offspring, so I don't have to worry about me and General Huo."

Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him for a moment, and Jiang Suizhou did not show any timidity, and looked at him calmly.

After a while, Emperor Zhaoyuan laughed.

"It's the first time I have heard these words. Your first emperor taught you to be apostate." He said.

Jiang Suizhou lowered his eyes, Quan Zuo admitted. Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him, then at Huo Wujiu who frowned and stopped talking, laughed a few times, and picked up the wine glass on the table.

"I'm just asking," he said. "Anyway, I haven't been working for a long time, how to toss in the future, don't you still see your plan?"

When the banquet dissipated, it was already a second watch.

The curfew in the palace is strict, and the locks have already been released by now. Emperor Zhaoyuan arranged a place for the two of them to live, and Huo Wujiu withdrew the other palace members, strolling back with Jiang Suizhou alone.

"What does your uncle mean by that?" Jiang Suizhou couldn't help asking.

Huo Wujiu squeezed his hand into his palm: "What he meant was that he was very satisfied with you."

"Really?" Jiang Suizhou didn't believe it.

"Naturally, what did I lie to you for?" Huo Wujiu glanced sideways and glanced at him. "You didn't realize that there is a reason for the words my uncle asked?"

Jiang Suizhou was taken aback: "What's the reason?"

Huo Wujiu stopped, turned his head, and approached him with a smile.

"I'm afraid you will be sad." He said with a smile. "Those words are for me to stabilize my position in the palace."

Jiang Suizhou laughed out loud, "Don't talk nonsense."

Huo Wujiu sighed: "Who is talking nonsense? It's you instead, and the answer is serious."

"Of course I have to say it seriously." Jiang Suizhou said.

"I didn't see it. Do you still have so many thoughts about the court affairs?" Huo Wujiu asked him as he walked slowly.

Hearing this, Jiang Suizhou smiled and said, "It's quite apostate, right?"

Huo Wujiu nodded, but shook his head again.

"What apostasy," he said. "At that time, what you say and what is right is right. If you don't listen to you, it is apostasy."

Jiang Suizhou smiled and said, "Where is it so easy?"

What he said just now was indeed from the sincerity, but he also knew that it was only because he understood the course of history in advance that he knew what was right and wrong in this era. But he also knows that the course of history cannot be changed forcibly. Even if he intends to make this era run more rationally, he still needs to proceed gradually and slowly.

Huo Wujiu sighed.

"Why not easy." He said. "and me."

Jiang Suizhou raised his eyes to look at him.

Huo Wujiu shook his hand and said, "I'm guarding the world for you. Whoever dares to oppose chaos, I will take care of whoever. What you want to do, just do it, no matter what you do, I will do it for you. Keep peace."

He was pretty sure. Jiang Suizhou wanted to laugh, but when he met Huo Wujiu's eyes, his eye sockets were a little hot.

He quietly looked at Huo Wugui.

In the past, because of his passion for this period of history, he wanted to explore it and protect it. Later, with Huo Wujiu, he wanted to make Huo Wujiu safe and smooth in this time and space, even if the original historical trajectory would be reversed because of this.

He never told Huo Wugui about these words.

But Huo Wujiu never had the slightest doubt about his choice.

"What's the matter?" Huo Wugui asked.

Jiang Suizhou said, "Close your eyes."

Huo Wujiao obediently closed his eyes: "What are you doing?"

The next moment, a warm and soft kiss slowly landed on his lips.

"I will protect you." Jiang Suizhou pressed to his lips and said softly.

Huo Wujiu was taken aback for a moment, then raised his hand and grabbed the back of Jiang Suizhou's head.

Before that kiss deepened, Huo Wujiu's voice was deeply intertwined with Jiang Suizhou's breathing.

"I will protect you too," he said.

Regarding why he likes history, Jiang Suizhou has long forgotten.

The time was too long and too long, he only remembered that in the long years of his youth, those obscure texts accompanied him through many difficult times.

He closed the door, and his unkind brothers and sisters, indifferent father, crying mother, and the arguments and conspiracies had nothing to do with him.

Only those old times recorded in the text are relevant to him.

He had forgotten when this habit started.

It was an afternoon.

The sun was shining, and it was a little hot on the body.

He was pushed down the stairs by his half-brother and sister and was not allowed to go upstairs. None of the servants dared to control him, so he limped alone and crashed into his father's empty study.

His feet hurt badly, but he didn't dare to cry. In order to divert his attention, he had to pick up an upside-down book on the sofa and open it.

That book is about a person's story.

That person has not had a mother since he was a child, but he is very powerful. When he was underage, in order to protect his family, he led his troops to beat the faint emperor and let his family sit on the throne. Later, in order to avenge him, the emperor abolished his legs, but he stood up again, avenged himself, and unified the world for his family.

No one had ever helped him. After doing this, he went back to the place where he grew up alone, as if he had never left it before, but created a new peace and prosperity.

Jiang Suizhou didn't recognize too much at that time, and he couldn't even recognize that person's name.

But that was the first time he felt that another person's story was so fascinating and so interesting that he had forgotten the pain, and even for the first time felt the power from another person through the cold words.

Jiang Suizhou has liked reading books and history since that time, because he remembered the wonderful feeling that afternoon.

But he never knew that the name of the book was "The Biography of Huo Wugui".
