Chapter 598
The 20th year of Xiping, January
Hua Xiong rode a steed and led a group of Sikong officials towards Luoyang. Along the way, Hua Xiong was looking around. As the lieutenant of Sili, when he arrived at Sili, there was not a single local magistrate. Human beings came to greet him, so he was looked down upon as the captain of Sili?Hua Xiong thought, this time, he has made great achievements in Liangzhou. Everyone said that the emperor might confer a title on himself.

In fact, Hua Xiong doesn't care about titles. How much is this thing worth? At most, when people come to see him, he will call him Huahou with a smile. In fact, he still scolds him behind his back. , It’s useless, it’s better to give yourself a real official position. This Sili captain is really too low for a person like me who has read poetry and books well. How did you discover your great talent?
Hua Xiong thought to himself, when he came to the east of the city, he was surprised to find that there were no pedestrians on the road. From a distance, he could see green covers, many flags, and many chariots and horses. Congratulations, finally someone came to greet him, he adjusted his clothes, and solemnly rushed towards the city gate, and there were many people waiting for him, seeing Hua Xiong coming, they all walked towards him.

The leader is Liu Mastiff.

By his side, Yuan Shao, Sun Jian, and Jiuqing were behind him, and almost all the officials rushed over. Hua Xiong was so touched. He didn't expect that he would be so valued, so many people would pay attention to him. Come to greet him, Hua Xiong got off his horse and hurried forward, meeting everyone's astonished gazes, he said with a smile: "Thank you, gentlemen!! Thank you!! Thank you!! Your Highness!!"

He bowed his hands to greet him, but everyone was startled. Liu Mastiff widened his eyes and asked, "Uncle Hua??? Aren't you helping the disaster in Liangzhou?"

"The disaster situation has improved. Why did the emperor let me come back? Didn't you come to welcome me?"

Hua Xiong asked in a daze, but Liu Mastiff was a little embarrassed, and said with some embarrassment: "I don't know that uncle came back at this time and hoped for forgiveness." Hua Xiong shook his head with a smile and said: "No problem, then Just keep waiting, His Majesty told me to go see him, I have to hurry there. By the way, who are you waiting for?"

"We are waiting for Duke Cao."

"Cao Cao?"

"Exactly."

Hua Xiong nodded, and then led the crowd directly into the county seat. Looking at Hua Xiong who had gone away, Liu Mastiff still felt that he should find a time to apologize, which was a bit embarrassing. Of course, Hua Xiong didn't think so. On the contrary, he was a little happy, this time all the officials came to welcome him, he is worthy of being a great talent in the court, he thought so, let the Sikong officials return to the mansion, and he went directly to the palace.

Arrived at the palace, he was familiar with the road, but the guards still stopped him, examined him seriously, and searched, if there were other two thousand stones, and they were so favored by the emperor, they would never dare, but Hua Xiong was different Ah, they don't know whether this unusual two thousand stones will bring some strange things into the palace again. Seeing that they are so vigilant, Hua Xiong just cursed a few words angrily, and then put the The iron instruments were handed over.

Walking into the palace, walking all the way towards Houde Hall, Huang Men followed, almost unable to keep up with Hua Xiong, Huang Men secretly scolded this Xiliang barbarian for being so impolite, the ministers in the palace had to bow their heads and walk around Walking, you guy, it’s fine if you don’t pace, and you still run? ? ?Hua Xiong rushed all the way to the front of the Hall of Houde, he didn't wait for the Huangmen to report, he crashed into the hall, the emperor was sitting in front of the file reviewing the performance list, Hua Xiong barged in like this, startled the emperor.

The emperor wanted to reprimand him. Looking at Hua Xiong who was grinning in front of him, waiting for him to praise him, he thought about it and forgot it. He couldn't bear to reprimand such a fool. The emperor got up helplessly and said, "Hua school Wei is here!? Come, sit down!", Hua Xiong sat in front of the emperor, and the emperor praised: "This time, when you go to Xiliang, there are no casualties among the people, the disaster situation is getting better, and the new city is gradually rising. I am really pleased! "

"Your great talent!"

Only then did Hua Xiong smile triumphantly, behaving like a naughty boy, and said: "Your Majesty, this is not the work of one person, but because of Your Majesty, if Your Majesty does not discover my talent and does not allow me to help disasters, I will You can’t make such a big contribution.”

"What E Aiqing said is reasonable, reasonable."

The emperor thought for a moment, and said: "This time, you have done a good job. I am going to give you a Marquis, the Marquis of the Township, how about it?"

Hua Xiong shook his head seriously, and said: "Your Majesty, I don't want to be a Marquis, I want to be an official."

"Hahaha, okay, what kind of official do you want to be?"

"I heard that Lord Situ Lu is dead. I think I can take over his position and command all officials!" Hua Xiong said solemnly, and patted his chest, but the emperor on the opposite side was dumbfounded and widened. He closed his eyes, and Huang Men, who was standing at the door, almost couldn't help laughing, just this stupid person, still want to be Situ? ?Let's see if the Son of Heaven doesn't scold you bloody, maybe he will jump on you and beat you up! !
The emperor was stunned for a moment, before he asked with a smile, "Do you really want to be Situ?"

"Yes!"

"why?"

"Recently, I have read a lot of books. I can't read these books in vain. After reading the books, I know a lot, so I have to display my talents!"

"Hahaha, that makes sense." The emperor nodded and said, "However, Situ, you must know the local harvest, the amount of land, the taxation, the disasters in various places, and the land situation in the world." , responsible for the measurement, these, have you already learned all of these?", Hua Xiong was a little stunned when the emperor asked, "So you need to know so many things?? I don't know at all."

"It's not too late now. You are the captain of Sili. This Sili is the most prosperous area in the world with the most cultivated land. You can first measure the cultivated land of Sili. You can be a little Situ and deal with Sili's situation first. If you can rule Sili, make Sili more prosperous, and learn this, I will let you be Situ, how about it?"

"real???"

"Of course, how can I lie to you!"

"Okay! I will definitely learn this!"

"Hahaha, okay, come and tell me when you're done learning!"

"Please!"

When Hua Xiong left, Huangmen was shocked. Could it be that the emperor really wants this fellow to be the Situ? ?He was thinking, but the emperor stopped him, and the emperor asked with some doubts: "Is Hanmen's illness still not cured?" Little Huangmen quickly said: "The country has not recovered yet."

"Fine. Let the imperial physician order to visit him again."

When Hua Xiong left the Hall of Houde, he felt full of ambition, and wanted to return to Sili Xiaowei now. After thinking about it, he should go to see Huangfusong, and immediately rushed towards the military school, and arrived at the military school. At that time, the Military Academy was empty, this group of students were still working as officials in various places, and had not come back, and the Military Academy had not recruited a new batch of students, so it seemed a little empty, he walked all the way towards Huangfusong's camp.

After entering the camp, he didn't see Huangfusong, which surprised Hua Xiong, isn't he here all day?Where did you go?
He searched around and only heard the sound of reading in one tent, so he went in. Walking into the tent, Hua Xiong was startled, isn't this Lu Meng?How could he study here? ?When Lu Meng saw Hua Xiong, he also hurriedly stood up and greeted the sacrificial wine. Hua Xiong asked in a daze, "Why are you?? Are you studying here?"

"That's right, Hua Jijiu, I failed the examination, so I'm here to stay and prepare to continue studying with the next batch of students!" Lu Meng said frankly, Hua Xiong nodded and praised: "You are very good, With this courage, take part in the next assessment, as long as you pass, I will personally recommend you!"

"Thank you Captain!"

"By the way, where is Mr. Huangfu? Where did he go?"

"Mr. Huangfu seems to have something happened at home. He left."

Hua Xiong nodded, and told Lu Meng to study hard, then he left Military Academy and went to Huangfusong's mansion.

Arriving at Huangfusong's mansion, Hua Xiong knocked on the door for a long time, but no one came out to answer the door. Hua Xiong was a little puzzled, and knocked for a long time. Then an old slave opened the door tremblingly, showing his head, looking at the door. Hua Xiong in front of him looked at him for a long time before asking: "What's the matter?" Hua Xiong said with a smile: "I'm here to see General Huangfu, is he in the mansion? I'm his friend, Hua Xiong, Si Captain Li!"

After he finished speaking, the old slave said: "General Huangfu has already rested, please come back another day."

Hua Xiong subconsciously sensed that something was wrong, he stretched out his hand and pushed the door open, the old slave was startled, and wanted to stop him, but there was no way he could stop him, Hua Xiong went straight into the mansion, there were some people inside the mansion. Dirty and messy, it doesn't look like a two thousand stone mansion at all. Hua Xiong walked all the way to the inner courtyard, and the place was even more chaotic. Hearing the movement, he walked into the study room. In the study room, Huang Fusong was sitting in front of the desk, wiping himself. Beloved repeater.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, he raised his head angrily, and was about to curse, but when he saw that it was Hua Xiong, he stopped talking, "You're here."

Hua Xiong looked around, the surroundings became a mess, the traces of rummaging through boxes and cabinets were very obvious, Huangfusong seemed to be several decades old, his whole body became a little decadent, with a lingering sadness on his face, seeing With his appearance, Hua Xiong frowned, sat in front of him, smelled the strange smell around him, and asked: "Your Dalang's clothes are loose?"

"How did you know? You too."

"Lieutenant Yuan also ate this food to relieve pain before. I know the taste."

Huangfu Song smiled wryly, and said: "This Zhuzi, while I was not in the mansion, beat up the servants in the mansion, and took away the money in the mansion. One mother, one mother, why is there such a huge difference?" Huangfu Song shook He shook his head and said: "My youngest son is now an official abroad, and his salary must be sent to me first every time, but this little thing will be taken away by his elder brother."

"The family is unfortunate, the family is unfortunate, the family is ugly, if it gets out, where will Huangfu's face be put?"

Huangfu Song said in pain.

"Do you want me to talk to him?" Hua Xiong asked.

"Don't bother you, I'll come by myself"

"When did you come back?"

"I came back today. I just went to see the emperor. The emperor said that he wants me to be a situ!"

"kindness?????"
