Chapter 31: Lose Your Impression Points
As soon as the servant who was passing the message left, Huo Guang hurriedly got out of the bed. As if it had been agreed, the two beautiful maids also pushed open the door and walked in at this time.
"Second Master, let's serve you to dress!" One of the maids said softly, his voice was indeed extremely pleasant.
"Well, I'll bother you. Hurry!" Huo Guang was worried about Sima Qian and Su Wu. He didn't want the two celebrities to wait for too long, leaving a bad impression on them, so he urged the two maids.
"Yes" the two women hurriedly stepped forward and began to comb Huo Guang's hair. Because in the Han Dynasty, both men and women had long hair, the hair had to be combed every day, and combing the hair became an indispensable daily task for everyone.
"By the way, I don't know what your name is?" Huo Guang found that he didn't know what these two maids were named, and he would have to spend a long time with them in the future, so he asked.
"If you say the second master, we are all servants and have never had a name since we were young. After we arrived at the Marquis' Mansion, the chief executive gave us a name, my name is Xian'er, and her name is Lan'er." The maid with a very beautiful voice replied.
"Oh, Xian'er, it sounds pretty good!" Huo Guang replied. Such a name is not special, but it also has a lot of artistic conception for these two maids.
The Xian'er is the maid with a pleasant voice. Her voice is indeed special, and she deserves the word Xian. As for Lan'er, Huo Guang, I feel that this woman is also a quiet and gentle person, and her temperament is very close to Lanhua. It is not difficult to see from these two names that the chief manager of the Hou Mansion is also somewhat capable.
"By the way, how long have the two adults who are looking for me been here?" Huo Guang waited for Xian'er and Lan'er to wash himself, and asked how long has Sima Qian and Su Wu been here.
"It seems they came quite early, and it seems that they came at the end of Chen Shizhong." This time the answer was not Xian'er, but Lan'er, who rarely spoke. It is probably Xian'er did not pay attention to when Sima Qian and Su Wu came. Only Lan'er was as careful as she could remember these things she couldn't help but want.
"When is it now?" Huo Guangxin said that these two people came quite early. In ancient times, Chen Shi was two hours from 7:00 to 9:00 in the morning, so Chen Shi was naturally coming close to 9:00.
"It's past Si and it's just noon." Xian'er responded quickly and immediately rushed to answer.
"What...it's already noon." Huo Guang was startled and quickly stood up. Regardless of whether his hair was neat or his clothes were straightened, he stood up and ran out the door.
Huo Guang was really anxious now. He actually asked Sima Qian and Su Wu to wait for two hours outside the Marquis' Mansion. If this matter was written into the history books, he would have to leave a arrogant and rude image in future generations. Of course, what Huo Guang was concerned about was not whether Sima Qian would record these things, but he really didn't want to leave a bad impression in the hearts of the two celebrities.
Huo Guang ran along the way, his shoes were tilted and his clothes were disheveled, and his hair was scattered. After all, Sima Qian and Su Wu were now in a low position, so the servants could only lead them to the side hall.
"Shh... let the two adults wait for a long time." Huo Guang stepped into the side hall panting and saw two people sitting in the hall. Needless to say, these two were Sima Qian and Su Wu.
"Uh..." Sima Qian and Su Wu looked at Huo Guang in surprise when they heard this, but when they saw Huo Guang's appearance, both of them couldn't help but frown.
"Is this Huo Guang? I heard that this life is in the mountains and rivers. With the champion Hou, he is now rich and powerful, and he looks like a villain is in power..." Huo Guang's image was so rude that Sima Qian and Su Wu couldn't help but become disgusted with Huo Guang.
"Sima Qian, Su Wu, pay homage to Shizhong Huo." Sima Qian and Su Wu stood up and bowed symbolically to Huo Guang. Both of them were from powerful families and were already disgusted with Huo Guang at this moment, so they naturally would not have any good faces.
Huo Guang saw the expressions of the two, looked down at him again, and Huo Guang also realized that he was rude. However, in this way, Huo Guang's expectations for Su Wu and Sima Qian were also reduced a lot.
Sima Qian and Su Wu are both in their twenties, Su Wu is exactly twenty years old, and Sima Qian is older, and now he is already twenty-eight years old. However, the two were just given the position of his father as a doctor. Although Huo Guang was much younger than the two, he now had the official position of the minister of the various Caos. Although he was only a promotion, he was much higher than that of the doctor. So this time the three met with Sima Qian and Su Wu visited Huo Guang.
Huo Guang felt uncomfortable because he was looked down upon. However, out of politeness, he reached out to tidy up his clothes and then scattered his hair on his head. Then he asked, "I wonder what the two of you guys are asking me for?"
Unfortunately, Huo Guang didn't know that his actions fell into the eyes of Sima Qian and Su Wu, but they became arrogant and rude again. Huo Guang was so disagreeable in Sima Qian and Su Wu's hearts!
"I heard that Huo Shizhong followed the champion Hou Yuan to Mobei throughout the journey. Although it should have been recorded by officials, Qian wanted to compile some historical books that record ancient and modern times, so he came to Huo Shizhong to verify the battle in Mobei." Sima Qian was older after all, and although he was not happy with Huo Guang's performance, he had not forgotten the main purpose of his trip.
"Records of the Grand Historian? Do you want to use some records of the Grand Historian?" Huo Guang immediately became energetic and asked. He had known before that Sima Qian had prepared since he was an adult in order to write records of the Grand Historian. He not only searched for historical sites, but also found many old people to ask them one by one. It turned out that he came to him today to verify the Battle of Mobei again through his own place.
"Random... This is what you do in science!" Huo Guang couldn't help but admire. You should know that as Sima Qian said, there are official records about the Battle of Mobei, but Sima Qian still needs to verify it himself, which shows his rigorous attitude towards writing history!
"Records of the Grand Historian? What kind of work is this? Is there really such a historical book in this world?" Sima Qian was slightly stunned. He thought about it in his mind and never heard of a book like "Records of the Grand Historian".
"Why did Lord Su Wu come?" Huo Guang knew that he had let go of the words, so he quickly asked Su Wu's purpose, so that it would also divert Sima Qian's attention.
"I am free to be interested in the customs and cultures of the countries in the Western Regions and barbarians from all directions. On the one hand, I was accompanying Brother Sima, and on the other hand, I also wanted to know some of the situations of the Huns in Shizhong Huo." Su Wu's purpose was purely personal interest, but his hobby was really suitable for his future diplomatic work.
"Haha, this person said that when I saw the old man since I was a child, these two people are really this material. No wonder they will achieve such great achievements in the future." Huo Guang thought in his heart. However, he was also a little curious. Originally, Sima Qian did not record himself in "Records of the Grand Historian", so would his time travel change Sima Qian and eventually let himself appear in "Records of the Grand Historian"?
Without much gossip, Huo Guang talked about the battle in Mobei for Sima Qian and Su Wu in the side hall. Of course, the entire battlefield was told from his perspective. Naturally, he also said that the plan to turn the enemy when the war was trapped in the wolf was Huo Qubing's idea. Anyway, in Huo Guang's story, he was completely a spectator.
When Huo Guang first talked, Sima Qian took out a pair of bamboo slips, held a carving knife in his hand and began to record some key points. Su Wu listened quietly, and Su Wu never made a sound from beginning to end. Instead, Sima Qian asked Huo Guang about some things from time to time.
This conversation took another hour, and Huo Guang finally cried several times in his belly, but he also endured and told Sima Qian seriously.
"Please forgive me for disturbing Shizhong Huo today. We will say goodbye!" Sima Qian and Su Wu stood up and said goodbye. Although Huo Guang tried his best to tell the two of them during this time, his image in the hearts of both of them was still unfair. They had no intention of having a close relationship with each other when they said goodbye.
"Uh...why stay for a meal?" Huo Guang asked tentatively, but seeing that the two of them were not moved at all, Huo Guang also understood that the two of them had a grudge against him, so he no longer forced them to stay.
"Okay, come here, I'll send two adults to me!" Huo Guang knew that once this first impression was created, it would be difficult to change, and he didn't know whether he could slowly change his image in the hearts of the two in the future.
Looking at the two of them leaving, Huo Guang could only sigh in his heart. Unexpectedly, Huo Qubing wanted to return to Chang'an that day to be defiled himself, but he had offended the two people before he could go to Chang'an City to shake. The key is that these two people are not small. Now, I guess he doesn't have to defile himself, and his reputation will not be better!
Huo Guangyi walked out of the side hall with a relaxed look and asked the servants to prepare their own meals. When Huo Qubing entered the palace, he usually would not reply to eat, because according to the past practice, Emperor Wu of Han usually kept Huo Qubing for dinner. Even if Emperor Wu of Han did not keep Huo Qubing, Prince Liu Ju would invite Huo Qubing, and sometimes the queen guard Zifu would invite Huo Qubing for dinner. In short, Huo Qubing would not have to worry about having no food when attacking, of course this was his honor!
As for Huo Xian, the little ancestor, Huo Guang knew that he would not eat with him. This little ancestor had a whole row of maids and old mothers to serve him, and now he didn't know how to be crazy in the Marquis' Mansion. In this way, Huo Guang became a idler in the Marquis' Mansion.
"Old Seven and Eighth, you should be very familiar with Chang'an City, right? Otherwise, I'll take me out for a walk." Huo Guangxin thought that there must be many strange things in this huge Chang'an City. Anyway, I've been idle these days, so I've been familiar with Chang'an City.
"No problem, I don't know where the second master wants to go? I can go and arrange it." Lao Ba asked.
"Arrange? What to arrange? Let's just take a walk." Huo Guang said unexpectedly. He didn't understand what Lao Ba meant.
"Don't the second master bring a few entourages?" Lao Ba was also a little surprised. The sons of the princes and princes in Chang'an City liked to rush forward and backward. He thought Huo Guang should have brought more than a dozen servants when he went out.
"What kind of entourage do you guys and me!" Huo Guang said while eating. When he heard about bringing entourage, Huo Guang thought of the yanee who brought a group of dog slaves to the market and teased the good women.
To be honest, Huo Guang is really not good at this.
