After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine - Chapter 123
[Chapter 123]
Emperor Zhaoyuan was stunned for a moment before realizing what Huo Wu Jiu said.
“…Give it away?” Emperor Zhaoyuan repeated.
Huo Wu Jiu nodded, with that natural look, he looked very righteous.
“Yeah.” He replied.
“You…” Emperor Zhaoyuan was about to get up in a hurry, almost coughing. But Huo Wu Jiu’s hands and feet were very fast, before he could cough out a sound, he stepped forward and raised his hand to take care of him.
“You can’t make a fool of yourself!” When the breath was smooth, Emperor Zhaoyuan said anxiously.
“No nonsense.” Huo Wu Jiu replied.
Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him suspiciously.
Seeing Huo Wu Jiu stop his hand, he said, “Since it is given, it must be justified. The person who accepts it must also be worthy of this responsibility.”
“Who is it?” Emperor Zhaoyuan asked.
Huo Wu Jiu did not make a sound.
Emperor Zhaoyuan was even more anxious.
“You at least tell me, who is that person?” he said.
Huo Wu Jiu looked at him quietly.
Emperor Zhaoyuan stared at him for a long time, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly sat up.
“I came back with you, Jiang… Jiang…”
“Jiang Suizhou.” Huo Wu Jiu nodded and admitted.
“You…!” Emperor Zhaoyuan was so angry that he was speechless.
He was so angry that Huo Wu Jiu stood there leisurely, as if he had made a decision long ago and let the other party handle it.
Emperor Zhaoyuan knew that Huo Wu Jiu was stubborn, and no one could change what he had decided. He was speechless with anger, and after a long time he reluctantly said, “You should know his identity!”
“I know.” Huo Wu Jiu nodded solemnly.
“Then how do you explain to the world!” Emperor Zhaoyuan said urgently, beating the edge of the bed.
After a moment of silence, Huo Wu Jiu spoke up.
“I can only fight, my uncle knows,” he said.
Emperor Zhaoyuan gasped and did not speak.
“I’m impatient to deal with the civil servants, and I don’t even know how to govern the country, and my uncle also knows it.” Huo Wu Jiu continued.
“But…”
“Success is easy, but it is difficult to defend.” Huo Wu Jiu said. “I know this truth, and I also understand that now 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 right. He opened his mouth, and after a long time, he sighed deeply.
“It was Suizhou who wanted to take over this burden for me.” Huo Wu Jiu continued. “He is smart and has a plan. He wants to see peace in the world more than I do. He didn’t want this title, he just said that as long as I want to do it, he will help me.”
Emperor Zhaoyuan raised his eyes and looked at him when he heard this. .
“However, I want to give him the credit,” he said. “It should be him who is admired by all people, and he should be praised for future generations.”
“What about you?” Zhaoyuan Emperor asked.
“Me?” Huo Wu Jiu paused and smiled at Emperor Zhaoyuan.
“I assist him, and I guard the world for him,” he said.
Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him.
He grew up watching Huo Wu Jiu, but he has never seen Huo Wu Jiu like this. He also knew why Huo Wu Jiu could say such words.
Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him with trembling eyes, and after a long time, he said, “You should know that the word “love” is the most unreliable thing in the world.”
Huo Wu Jiu did not speak.
“The throne, if you give it away, you can’t get it back. But you can take it back at any time. You can exchange the throne for his sincerity now. How do you know that his sincerity can be with you for the rest of your life?”
Huo Wugui lowered his eyes.
“I can’t guarantee it,” he said.
“So…”
“But, I can guarantee that my sincerity will be with him all my life.” Huo Wu Jiu said.
Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him in surprise.
He saw Huo Wu Jiu raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were firm and his tone was calm.
“I don’t want to exchange the throne for his sincerity. To me, the throne is just a bonus thing. My whole life, my whole life, has been handed over to him for the rest of my life. This throne is irrelevant, anyway. It’s mine, and it’s his.”
Emperor Zhaoyuan was heartbroken.
“Aren’t you afraid of regretting one day?” he asked.
Huo Wu Jiu heard this, as if thinking of someone, his eyes dropped, a smile appeared on his face.
“For him, I will never in my life.”
–
Emperor Zhaoyuan still forced to see Jiang Suizhou.
Huo Wu Jiu procrastinated and didn’t want to agree, but Emperor Zhaoyuan asked repeatedly and even brought Huo Shu to intercede, he had no choice but to talk to Jiang Suizhou.
Jiang Suizhou felt a little uneasy when he heard the words. But he also knew that since he returned to Yecheng with Huo Wu Jiu, he could not avoid this incident.
He promised to come down, and soon, the palace arranged the day.
Jiang Suizhou went into the palace for a banquet nervously, but he did not expect that the meeting would be surprisingly smooth.
Emperor Zhaoyuan didn’t make it difficult for him, but dragged his sick body and entertained him amiably. At the banquet, he kept chatting with Jiang Suizhou about daily gossip, until after three rounds of drinking, he officially opened his mouth.
“I already know about the blameless plan.” Emperor Zhaoyuan put down his glass and looked at Jiang Suizhou.
Jiang Suizhou sat upright and looked up at him.
“So now, I want to ask your plan.” Emperor Zhaoyuan said.
Jiang Suizhou nodded seriously: “Your Majesty, may I ask you.”
When Cong and Jiang Suizhou met each other, Emperor Zhaoyuan had been quietly observing his words and deeds. Unlike Huo Wu Jiu, who was used to being unrestrained since childhood, he has a deep-rooted upbringing that has been cultivated since childhood.
It’s not like a fake.
Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him and slowly asked: “I already know your relationship with Wu Jiu. If Wu Jiu will sit on the throne in the future, I naturally don’t have to worry about it, but if it is you, how do you plan to balance the former dynasty and the harem? ?”
Jiang Suizhou smiled lightly when he heard the words.
“Nothing from the former harem.” He said, turning his head to look at Huo Wu Jiu.
“Through the ages, which emperor didn’t need to use the harem to check and balance the previous dynasty?”
“If the harem is really used as a benefit, then the ones who are cultivated will only be relatives.” Jiang Suizhou said warmly. “It is really unreliable to tie a woman in the harem and use the depth of the relationship with the emperor as a bond. What’s more, I would like to try it and move the stage of the woman out of the harem.”
Emperor Zhaoyuan Looking at him quietly, motioning for him to continue.
“Just like General Lou. Although he has no children, his daughter has shown her skills in the army and served in the court. Miss Lou is a rare general and a minister of the court. General Lou has a heart in her heart, so she is naturally more loyal. Serve your life. This kind of bond must be more reliable than the bluntly involved in-laws.”
Emperor Zhaoyuan pondered for a while, and said, “It’s shocking, you dare to think.”
“It’s just a trial and fantasy.” Jiang Suizhou said.
“Then have you ever thought about who will be the successor in a hundred years?” Emperor Zhaoyuan asked.
Jiang Suizhou continued: “The Huo clan will definitely have outstanding descendants, so there is no need for me and General Huo to worry about it.”
Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him for a moment, but Jiang Suizhou did not show any timidity, and looked at him calmly.
After a while, Emperor Zhaoyuan laughed.
“This is the first time I have heard these words. Your late emperor taught you to be deviant,” he said.
Jiang Suizhou lowered his eyes, and Quan Zuo admitted. Emperor Zhaoyuan looked at him, then looked at Huo Wu Jiu who was frowning but hesitant to say anything, 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 will I toss in the future? Isn’t it still up to your plans?”
——When
the banquet dispersed, it was already the second watch.
The curfew in the palace is strict, and the lock is already locked at this moment. Emperor Zhaoyuan arranged accommodation for the two of them, Huo Wu Jiu then screened out the other palace servants and walked back alone with Jiang Suizhou.
“What does your uncle mean when you say that?” Jiang Suizhou couldn’t help asking.
Huo Wu Jiu squeezed his hand into his own: “What he means is that he is very satisfied with you.”
“Really?” Jiang Suizhou didn’t quite believe it.
“Of course, why did I lie to you?” Huo Wu Jiu glanced at him. “You didn’t realize that there is a reason for what my uncle asked?”
Jiang Suizhou was stunned: “What is the reason?”
Huo Wu Jiu stopped, turned his head, and approached him with a smile.
“I’m afraid you’ll lose your mind.” He said with a smile. “Those words are all trying to secure my position in the main palace.”
Jiang Suizhou burst out laughing: “Don’t talk nonsense.”
Huo Wu Jiu clicked his tongue: “Who is talking nonsense? Instead, it was you who answered seriously.”
“Of course I have to say it seriously.” Jiang Suizhou said.
“I didn’t see it, do you still have so many thoughts on the affairs of the imperial court?” Huo Wu Jiu asked while leading him slowly.
Hearing this, Jiang Suizhou smiled and said, “It’s quite deviant, isn’t it?”
Huo Wu Jiu nodded, but shook his head again.
“What a deviant,” he said. “At that time, what you say will be right, and if you don’t listen to you, it will be deviant.”
Jiang Suizhou said with a smile: “Where is it so easy?”
His words just now were indeed sincere, but also I know, it is only because he understood the process of history in advance that he knows what is right and what is wrong in this era. But he also knows that the historical process cannot be forcibly changed. Even if he wants to make this era run more rationally, he needs to gradually and gradually plan it.
Huo Wu Jiu clicked his tongue.
“It’s not easy,” he said. “There is me.”
Jiang Suizhou looked up at him.
Seeing Huo Wu Jiu shaking his hand, he said, “I will guard the world for you, and whoever dares to oppose the chaos, I will clean up whoever you want. Whatever you want to do, just do it, no matter what you do, I will do it for you. Keep the peace.”
He said firmly, Jiang Suizhou wanted to laugh, but when he met Huo Wu Jiu’s eyes, his eyes were a little hot.
He quietly looked at Huo Wu Jiu.
In the past, because of his love for this history, he wanted to explore it and protect it. Later, with Huo Wu Jiu, he wanted Huo Wu Jiu to be safe and smooth in this time and space, even if the original historical trajectory would be reversed because of this.
He never told Huo Wu Jiu these words.
But Huo Wu Jiu never had the slightest doubt about his choice.
“What’s wrong?” Huo Wu Jiu asked.
Jiang Suizhou said: “You close your eyes.”
Huo Wu Jiu closed his eyes obediently: “What are you doing?” The
next moment, a warm and soft kiss slowly landed on his lips.
“I will protect you.” Jiang Suizhou said softly against his lips.
Huo Wu Jiu was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and clasped the back of Jiang Suizhou’s head.
Before the kiss deepened, Huo Wu Jiu’s voice was deeply intertwined with Jiang Suizhou’s breathing.
“I’ll protect you too,” he said.
——Jiang
Suizhou has long forgotten why he likes history.
The time is too long, too long, he only remembers that in the long years of his youth, those obscure words accompanied him through many difficult times.
He closed the door, and the unfriendly siblings, the indifferent father, the crying mother, and all the squabblings and intrigues had nothing to do with him.
Only those old times recorded in writing are relevant to him.
And when did this habit start, he had long forgotten.
It was an afternoon.
The sun was shining, and it was a little hot.
He was pushed down the stairs by his half-brother and was not allowed to go upstairs. None of the family’s 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 tells the story of a man.
That person, who has not had a mother since he was a child, is very powerful. When he was still young, in order to protect his entire family, he led the army to beat off the faint-hearted emperor, and let his family sit on the throne. Later, in order to retaliate against him, the emperor abolished his two legs, but he stood up again, avenged himself, and unified the world for his family.
No one has ever helped him, and after doing this, he returned alone to the place where he grew up, as if he had never left there, but created a new peaceful and prosperous world.
Jiang Suizhou didn’t know much at that time, not even the person’s name.
But that was the first time he felt that another person’s story was so fascinating and interesting that he forgot the pain, and even felt the power from another person through the cold words for the first time.
From that time on, Jiang Suizhou liked reading books and history, because he remembered the wonderful feeling that afternoon.
But he never knew the name of the book, “Huo Wu Jiu Biography”.
