Chapter 356 Su Wu returns to Han

Author: Gongsun Wujiu

Amid the clamor of the crowd, Bingji took out the emperor's edict.

Bingji then read out the contents of the edict!

Zhang Huan listened in a daze for a long time, only remembering that he was appointed as a doctor of the Royal Library.

"I sincerely obey the imperial edict and may your Majesty live forever!"

After receiving and putting away the edict, Zhang Huan first apologized to the scholars around him, and then invited Bingji back to the Marquis Mansion.

"Mr. Bing, this is a tea made by someone in the middle of Sichuan. I would like to ask you to taste it..."

Zhang Huan ordered people to fetch tea leaves and brewed a pot of tea for Bingji himself.

Hearing this, Bingji curiously observed the tea soup in his hand.

I saw that the color of the soup was clear and slightly yellow, clear and bright.

He couldn't help but take a small sip, but the taste was fresh, rich and sweet.

Bingji asked in admiration, "This is the "Mengding" tea that is said to be "higher than a ruler, immortal, and very unusual." Drinking this tea for a long time is good for the spleen and stomach, and can prolong life. It is known as the "fairy tea"

Huh?"

Zhang Huan also took a sip of the tea soup and said, "This is the "Meng Ding". According to adults, regular drinking can indeed refresh the mind and prolong life, but the fairy tea is overrated!"

The two of them talked about the tea ceremony while drinking tea, but after finishing a cup of tea, they turned to the main topic.

"Mr. Bing, why did your Majesty suddenly appoint someone to be the doctor of the library?"

Bingji said, "Duke Du is here to invite your majesty and the general!"

Zhang Huan asked in a low voice, "Why did Duke Du do this?"

Bingji said, "Duke Du is also for the gentleman's safety!"

Zhang Huan nodded with a serious face, and then sighed and said: "My lord also gave me a letter to the boy a few months ago, saying that Duke Du will lead the boy to the library..."

Hearing this, Bingji exclaimed, "Marquis Yunyang really has a clever plan!"

"well!"

Zhang Huan sighed, "But I told you not to go to Chang'an!"

Bingji was shocked when he heard this, "Why did Marquis Yunyang say this?"

Zhang Huan looked at Bing Ji and said, "Although this boy is young and ignorant, he also knows that Chang'an is not a good place. Does Mr. Bing really not know that?"

Bingji was silent when he heard this. At this time, he couldn't help but think of the increasingly fierce power struggle in Chang'an.

Shangguan Jie had already formed an alliance with Sang Hongyang, the imperial censor, and now he was gradually joining forces with the eldest princess of Eyi.

The general was able to suppress these three people largely because of the support of Jin Rixi and Che Qianqiu.

But the current situation is not optimistic. General Jin Rixi of Chariot and Cavalry is seriously ill, and Che Qianqiu is also very old.

If Jin Rixi and Che Qianqiu die, it is unknown whether the general can continue to suppress Shangguan Jie and the others.

In addition, the emperor is getting older and is about to get married.

If the emperor gets married, according to the Han family system, the emperor will begin to rule personally after the wedding ceremony.

This is also very detrimental to Huo Guang.

Thinking of this, Bingji couldn't help but sigh, "Marquis Yunyang really can see thousands of miles away!"

After finishing speaking, he said to Zhang Huan with a complicated look on his face, "If this is the case, why are you a gentleman?"

Zhang Huandao said, "This kid is already sixteen years old this year (a virtual age). He should also share the worries of adults. How can he be a coward and hide in the nest..."

Bingji praised, "As expected, he has a tiger father and no dog son!"

After all, Zhang Huan was young, but his face felt hot when he heard this.

He then changed the subject and said, "Mr. Bing, what does Dr. So need to do?"

Bingji smiled and said, "The doctor's office is supposed to be responsible for keeping documents and archives, compiling writings, understanding the past and present, imparting knowledge, and cultivating talents."

"But Junzi, a doctor, is rather special, because there is no precedent... it all depends on Junzi..."

Zhang Huan's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Mr. Bing, can such a boy conscript scholars into the library?"

Bingji thought for a while and then said, "Yes!"

At this time, Bingji unconsciously looked outside the house.

"Can a gentleman choose someone from among the scholars outside the government to be admitted to the library?"

Zhang Huan didn't hide it either, "That's exactly it!"

After speaking, he hesitated for a moment and said, "I also intend to send a group of scholars to the Western Regions. Do you think it's okay?"

Bingji thought for a moment and said, "There should be no problem entering the library, but if we send scholars to the Western Regions, it may cause an uproar!"

Zhang Huan couldn't help but look frustrated when he heard this.

Seeing this, Bingji smiled and said, "Gentleman, why don't you first select scholars to enter the library, and then send people to the Western Regions in the name of the library!"

Zhang Huan's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Good... great good... Mr. Bing is indeed a wise man!"



When Zhang Huan was in Yunyang County looking to recruit scholars into the library.

Chang Hui finally met Su Wu who had returned from Beihai.

Looking at the bare banner in Su Wu's hand, Chang Hui couldn't help but shed tears.

"Su Gong has suffered!"

Chang Hui held Su Wu's chapped hands and didn't know what to say for a moment.

On the other hand, Su Wu had a smile on his face.

"Goodbye Mr. Chang, you are well!"

Chang Hui nodded with tears in her eyes.

He then took Su Wu into the tent. As for the Huns who came with Su Wu, someone would be responsible for them.

Su Wu followed Chang Hui to the big tent and asked, "Mr. Chang, is your Majesty okay?"

Chang Hui said, "Your Majesty passed away six years ago, and the current emperor is your Majesty's youngest son!"

When Su Wu heard this, he suddenly cried in the direction of Chang'an and said, "Your Majesty, Wu is incompetent..."

Chang Hui saw this and did not disturb him, but just waited quietly.

After a quarter of an hour, Su Wu gradually regained his composure.

After the two entered a gorgeous felt tent, Su Wucai asked about the situation in Chang'an City.

"So, it is General Huo Guang who holds the power now?"

Su Wu frowned.

Chang Hui said, "Not bad!"

Su Wu sighed, with a worried look on his face, "Young master, I am suspicious of the country. This may not be a blessing for the great man!"

Chang Hui consoled him, "Don't worry, Mr. Su, the general is a gentleman... Besides, there is also the Marquis of Yunyang of the Western Regions outside; there are generals of chariots and cavalry and generals of Zuo inside to check and balance... Your Majesty, nothing will happen to you!"

Su Wu nodded, "I hope so!"

Then he asked, "Why did Duke Chang come to the Xiongnu here?"

Chang Hui said, "To be honest, I came here this time to discuss peace between Han and Hungary."

Su Wu was shocked when he heard this, "Han and Hungary are negotiating for peace?"

Chang Hui knew that Su Wu had always been a resolute leader in fighting.

So he immediately explained, "Su Gong didn't know something, and the Han Dynasty had no choice but to negotiate peace with the Xiongnu!"

Then, after he ordered people to guard the felt tent, he narrated what happened in Chang'an these years.

After Su Wu heard this, he sighed after a while, "The Wang family is really a traitor to the country. Fortunately, Marquis Yunyang and the general were born, otherwise we Han people will die without a burial place!"

After finishing speaking, he asked again, "What is the situation like in the Western Region now?"

Chang Hui said, "Marquis Yunyang is indeed a great talent. Now in the Western Regions, there are no less than 700,000 people registered as households... All the countries have become the concubines of the Han Dynasty... The available troops are no less than 100,000 cavalry..."

Su Wu sighed, "I wish I could meet Marquis Yunyang..."
