I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 120 Huo Xian, From Concubine to Main Wife (Please recommend)

Huo Guang's mansion is not so much the General's Mansion, but the Great Sima's Mansion.

Because Da Sima is an official position in the outer dynasty, and the general is an official position in the inner court.

Huo Guang's power to open the mansion comes more from the position of Da Sima, so naturally it should be called Da Sima's mansion more accurately.

It's just that the Grand General's Mansion sounds more powerful, so this name was used.

Like most of the mansions of the Han Dynasty, the General's Mansion also has the pattern of the front mansion and the backyard.

The scale is twice as large as that of Changyi Prime Minister's Mansion.

The core personnel of the Huo family all live here, plus the various Caos and subordinate officials in the mansion, there are hundreds of people.

And this is just the heart of the huge Huo family, other places in Shangguanli and Qili are also scattered with the mansions of other relatives of the Huo family.

Not to mention the other members of the Huo Party, it is estimated that there are more than ten thousand people in Chang'an just the relatives and servants of the Huo family.

For the sake of so many people's future, wealth and lives, Huo Guang can only advance but not retreat.

On weekdays, court meetings like today's are not common, so Huo Guang usually stays in the mansion in the morning to deal with military affairs, and after lunch, he goes to the Shangshu Office of Weiyang Palace to deal with court affairs. Will return to the General's Mansion to rest.

For more than ten years, except for some special solar terms, Huo Guang has been like this every day, and has never had an extra rest.

……

The carriage went around to the side entrance of the General's Mansion, and drove directly into the courtyard behind the nave—this courtyard was actually three-entry and three-exit.

When Huo Guang got off the carriage, the servants in the courtyard immediately saluted and greeted him.He just nodded slightly and walked towards the middle courtyard.

In the short distance of dozens of steps, Huo Guang walked a little blissfully.

With this complacency, Huo Guang had just walked into the main hall of the middle courtyard, when Huo Xian, the wife of the general dressed in fine clothes, immediately greeted him.

Huo Xian is over forty years old, but her good life makes her look no more than 30 years old, graceful and beautiful.

Between her gestures, she exudes the air of a graceful and luxurious headed mistress.

The only thing that makes people uncomfortable is that Huo Xian's facial features are too delicate, so that there is a faint trace of unconcealable meanness and seductiveness between the brows.

"Husband, how is today's court meeting, the emperor treats you still kindly?" Huo Xian asked impatiently while giving Huo Guang a towel to wipe his face.

Huo Xian was impatient, which made the meanness between his brows and eyes even more serious.

"No matter how anxious Madam is, let me wipe this face clean?" Huo Guang, who always had a majestic face, was not angry, and his expression, which had been hidden under his beautiful beard all year round, became more active, as if he had become more than ten years younger all of a sudden. age.

"Hmph, that concubine will wait for you for a while!" Huo Xian said with almond eyes, not afraid of Huo Guang, the head of the family.

In the city of Chang'an, in the Han Empire, only Huo Xian could be so presumptuous in front of Huo Guang.

……

Huo Xian's surname is not Huo, and even she herself may not be able to tell what her surname is.

The reason is also very simple, that is, Huo Xian's background is too humble.

Huo Xian's ancestral home was in Qidi, and he was originally a wealthy landlord. Because of a certain year when the Yellow River diverted its course and flooded, all the land became a swampy country overnight.

At this point, Huo Xian's family became landless refugees.

In Dahan, refugees are equivalent to criminals.

The elders of Huo Xian's family exchanged the last bit of family wealth for a customs clearance certificate, and came to Chang'an to seek refuge with distant relatives. 15-year-old Huo Xian lives alone on the streets of Chang'an.

In Chang'an, it is almost impossible for a helpless young girl to live, at least not to live cleanly.

However, Huo Xian was unlucky, but also lucky.

When she was about to starve to death on the street, she met one of Huo Guang's followers.

This little-known retainer had a kind heart for a while, and brought Huo Xian, who was skinny, lice-prone, and sore, back to Huo Mansion, and made her the maidservant of Huo Guangzheng's wife.

Huo Xian has been in exile all the way, and he has long been used to the filth and intrigue of too many cannibals.

So when she walked into Huo's mansion and saw the rich clothes and fine food of the Huo family, she made up her mind to find a job of her own in the Huo family.

And the first thing she did was to give herself a new name—Xian, which naturally had a prominent meaning.

After recuperating in Huo Zhai for a while, under the nourishment of rich food, the unattractive Huo Xian unexpectedly showed his figure and charm like a peony in spring.

Many young retainers and servants of the Huo Mansion began to flirt.

However, Huo Xian was unmoved, because her prey was Huo Guang, the backbone of the Huo family.

Of course, the best hunters always disguise themselves as their prey.

From then on, Huo Xian always looked for opportunities to appear in front of Huo Guang, and those eyes like Wang Qiushui always conveyed the meaning of love to Huo Guang intentionally or unconsciously.

Finally, on a rainy night, Huo Guang's first wife occasionally felt cold, so she asked Huo Xian to take care of Huo Guang who was still in the mansion to handle government affairs.

The night of wind and rain is a good time to embrace fragrance and cherish jade.

The rain didn't stop that night, and the wind and rain blew up, covering up many indecent voices.

Soon after, Huo Xian became Huo Guang's concubine, and Huo Guang's wife's cold was never better.

Just half a year later, Huo Guang's first wife drove to Hexi, and Huo Xian, who was already pregnant, naturally became Huo Guang's first wife.

Huo Guang's first regular wife left him only one daughter, while Huo Xian was very fertile, and then brought six children to the Huo family.

Among them was Huo Guang's only son, Huo Yu.

With so many heirs, the ability to manage the family, and the ability to subdue Huo Guang in the boudoir, Huo Xian naturally became another pillar of the Huo family.

Even though he has already lived a graceful and carefree life, Huo Xian's scheming in his bones cannot be concealed.

In front of Huo Guang, Huo Xian is a hot, capable and charming wife; in front of outsiders, Huo Xian is a vicious, cold and decisive mistress.

For Huo Xian, the most important thing is to maintain the glory of the Huo family.

In practice, it is "to love one's son is to plan far-reaching".

It is needless to say that his son Huo Yu will inherit Huo Guang's mantle in the future, and several daughters were also betrothed to the dignitaries in the court - they not only lived a life of luxury, but also bound more people. On the Huo family's chariot.

But now, the only thing left is Huo Chengjun, a 15-year-old little girl.

Huo Xian naturally wanted to plan a good future for her.

……

Not long after, Huo Guang finally wiped his face, sighed contentedly, and sat down on the couch.

Huo Xian called someone to bring the tea set, sat opposite to his husband, and made tea for him.

This way of drinking tea has only recently spread in Chang'an, and it is said that it came from the country of Changyi.

After half a stick of incense, the fragrance of tea is overflowing.

Huo Xian handed a cup of hot tea to Huo Guang with hands as white as onion roots.

"Your husband worked hard in the morning, and the concubine has poured tea for you." Huo Xian said with flowing eyes.

Huo Guang's last bit of fatigue was wiped away, he took it with a smile, and drank it all in one gulp.

The hot tea rushed into his stomach, making Huo Guang a little hot.

"Your Majesty respects me very much, and respects me as Zhongfu in the court."

"Is that really the case?" Huo Xian was startled, and almost dropped the teacup in his hand.

"When did my husband lie to you?"

Then, Huo Guang told what happened in the hall.

The more Huo Xian listened, the faster his heart beat. It seemed that the luck of the little girl Huo Chengjun had come.
