Chapter 32 Dog Blood Plot

In the end, Huo Guang only took the two elders, the seventh and eighth brothers out of the Champion Hou's Mansion, because he was just walking in the city, he did not prepare horses and carriages.

Because the Adi Street lives in the current dynasty and only has seven mansions, the entire Adi Street is often deserted and there are almost no pedestrians.

Because I first arrived in Chang'an, Huo Guang didn't know whose mansions were except the Champion Marquis' Mansion, so he asked while walking: "Do you know who is the other seven mansions in the A-Text?"

"When I go back to the second master, the ones adjacent to the Guanjun Hou Mansion are Ruyin Hou Mansion and Tangyi Hou Mansion, and the other side is the mansion of "Xuchengjun". The innermost part of the alley is the Pingyang Hou Mansion. In fact, the Pingyang Hou Mansion was originally from two mansions. Later, the eldest princess married the Pingyang Hou Marquis, and His Majesty issued an order to combine the Pingyang Hou Mansion and the eldest princess' mansion into one. Finally, the family at the entrance of the alley was originally from the Grand Princess Guantao, but later the Grand Princess moved into the Tangyi Hou Mansion, and a villa was built here." Lao Qi lived in Jiadi for many years and knew all the several mansions here.

Huo Guang said at the beginning of his hearing: "It is indeed worthy of being the North Que Jiadi. Each of these families is a royal relative, and each family has a close relationship."

In fact, except for a few princesses, there are only three residences left here: Ruyin Hou, Pingyang Hou, Tangyi Hou and Champion Hou. However, in terms of this, except for the Champion Hou Mansion, the other three residences can also be regarded as princess’ residences. Because Princess Pingyang lives in Ruyin Hou, and the current Pingyang Hou Cao Xiang married the eldest princess of the current dynasty. Speaking of which, the Princess Wei (Princess Dangli) has some relationship with Huo Guang, because Princess Dangli was born to Wei Zifu, and he would call Huo Qubing a cousin, so Huo Guang should also call Princess Wei a cousin by his seniority. It is precisely because of this relationship that Huo Qubing has a close personal relationship with Pingyang Hou.

As for the Tangyi Hou Mansion, it was the husband's family of the eldest princess of the previous dynasty, Princess Guantao's husband. This Princess Guantao was the elder aunt of Emperor Wu of Han, and her daughter was Chen Ajiao, the first empress of Emperor Wu of Han. Although Empress Chen had been deposed, Princess Guantao had a special status after all and her status was still very high. Fortunately, Princess Guantao was old these years and basically retired in the Tangyi Hou Mansion, which did not cause any storm.

"Xu Chengjun? Who is this?" Huo Guang can easily clarify the relationship between the marquis and princesses in the first place, but Huo Guang really doesn't know who this Xiuchengjun is. Moreover, Huo Guang felt that the title of Xiuchengjun was exactly the same as that of the Warring States Period. However, Huo Guang knew that Huo Guang had no record of the title of the Emperor in the Western Han Dynasty, and there was no such level as the title of the Emperor!

"This... Second Master, Xiu Chengjun's original surname is Jin, she is actually the daughter of the Queen Mother!" Lao Qi seemed to be a little taboo, and said in a low voice to Huo Guang'er.

"The daughter of the Queen Mother Jin? Could it be her?" After Jing Laoqi said this, Huo Guang immediately grabbed a clue in his heart. After thinking carefully, Huo Guang found that there was really a person like Xiu Chengjun in the history of the Western Han Dynasty.

This matter starts with the marriage customs of the Western Han Dynasty. There was not as much red tape as later generations during this period, especially for women to remarry and get pregnant before marriage. Wang Zhi, the biological mother of Emperor Wu of Han, was actually married before entering the palace. She married a man named Jin Wangsun and gave birth to a daughter. She named the girl Jin Su. It has to be said that this name is indeed very vulgar. Later, Wang Zhi became the queen, and even her son Liu Che became the emperor. Only then did someone say that he found the daughter he had with Jin Wangsun.

Emperor Wu of Han heard that he suddenly had an older sister, but he still had no royal blood, but was not unhappy at all. Instead, he was very close to this sister. However, because Jin Vu did not have royal blood, Emperor Wu of Han could not be named a princess even if he was good to Jin Vu.

However, this question did not stump Emperor Wu of Han. Emperor Wu of Han thought that if a few people could not be granted a princess, they would simply enfeoff something else. At this time, he thought that a title like "jun" rarely appeared in the court. The reason why there was no title like "jun" in the court was actually related to the feudal system of the kings in the Han Dynasty. The power of the kings who were granted in the Han Dynasty was extremely powerful, especially before the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, it was completely a small kingdom. Such a king would naturally enfeoff many ministers and confidants. Of course, the kingdom could not be granted a marquis by itself, so he continued the customs of the Warring States Period, gave these kings fiefs and gave them the title of "jun".

Such a title of kingdom will naturally not appear in the central Han Dynasty, and even the records of the central court rarely appear, so many people in later generations ignored such a special title of Han Dynasty. Since the king of kingdom can be granted, how can the great Han emperor not be granted?

So Emperor Wu of Han rewarded the fiefdom and named Jinshi "Xuchengjun".

Before he knew it, Huo Guang walked to the northern palace of Weiyang Palace. Looking at the tall and majestic Weiyang Palace group, Huo Guang also sighed in his heart, I wonder when Emperor Wu of Han would use him? Although Huo Guang had the title of Shizhong to enter and exit the Forbidden Palace, he would not have been so stupid that he entered the palace without the summoning of Emperor Wu of Han.

"What's so fun about Chang'an City?" Huo Guang looked at Weiyang Palace and looked back at Jiadi. Only then did he remember his purpose of coming out.

"Second Master, there are many taverns from the Western Regions on Hengmen Street. Do you want to go there to see?" Lao Qi thought for a moment. He knew that the children of Chang'an princes liked to go to Hengmen Street. Because there were more than 30 taverns opened by merchants from the Western Regions. Among them, there were not only fine wine and food from the Western Regions, but also Western Regions dancers and singers, which were a good place for many noble children to gather and have fun.

"Taoguans of the Western Regions? Not bad, let's go to Hengmen Street." Huo Guang was curious when he heard that there was such a place in Chang'an City. You must know that the territory of the Han Dynasty was only at Yumen Pass, and it was the second year of Yuanshou in the second year of Yuanshou three years ago. Emperor Wu of Han set up two counties of Jiuquan and Dunhuang. At this time, the Western Regions were still ruled by thirty-six countries of all sizes. At this time, there were merchants from these countries in Chang'an City. It seemed that the Han Dynasty had the atmosphere of a great power in the Celestial Empire at this time.

Hengmen Street is the street extending from Hengmen, the northwest corner of Chang'an City. Next to it is the most prosperous western market in Chang'an City. This is the trading market for daily necessities, luxury goods and other goods. The entire area is also the busiest in Chang'an.

Beique Jiadi is not far from Hengmen Street, and it takes only more than ten minutes to walk Huo Guang arrived at the most prosperous area of ​​Chang'an City. Sure enough, you can smell the smell of wine in the air from afar, and you can even hear the body in the distance, and you can even get crowded with people in the distance, crowded with the entire street.

Huo Guang also squeezed into the crowd with the seventh and eighth brothers. Huo Guang had never seen such a lively scene in his life, and even the temple fairs in later generations might not be so lively. Huo Guang was still only forty years old and had not yet grown taller, so he squeezed around in the crowd smoothly. However, the seventh and eighth brothers behind him were all burly men. This man was not as fast as Huo Guang. Although the two of them tried hard to squeeze forward, they finally lost Huo Guang.

When Huo Guang also found that the old seventh and the eighth were not around, he could no longer find the two of them. Huo Guang stood there and looked around for a while, probably the two were looking for him. Huo Guang thought that he was not familiar with the place, so he would wait for the old seventh and the eighth and the eighth, so he stood by the street and watched the people coming and going in the street.

After waiting for a while, Huo Guang still did not notice the figure of the old seventh and the eighth ones. However, he heard melodious music coming from the house behind him. Moreover, these music were different from the sound of palace bells and chimes, but were orchestral music with a very Western-style style. Huo Guang probably must be a Western-European tavern behind him.

Seeing the people coming and going in the streets, Huo Guang thought that no matter what, the seventh and eighth brothers would naturally find him. Besides, in Chang'an City, he had two backers, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, and their two subordinates were all over the court and the country. Who dared to do anything to him? So Huo Guang did not continue to wait by the street, but turned around and entered the Hu tavern behind him.

The so-called Western Regions countries are actually countries established on the territory of Xinjiang in later generations. Although Uyghurs did not appear in the Western Han Dynasty, Huo Guang found that there was a clear Xinjiang style in later generations in this Hu tavern.

Huo Guang glanced over the tavern and found that there were not many people among them, only a dozen people scattered and sat together in groups of three or three to drink. Finally, there was a small wooden platform in the tavern, and several dancers in Western Regions dresses were dancing in the sound of Western Regions music.

Whether in ancient times or later generations, there are two most famous things in the Western Regions: one is the Western Regions grape wine, and the other is the dance posture of the Western Regions dancers. These two are the special signs of the Western Regions Tavern on Hengmen Street. However, because of the long journey, the Western Regions grape wine is naturally valuable. There are not many Western Regions dancers who travel thousands of miles to Chang'an. All those who can come to Western Regions Taverns are also high-ranking officials and nobles.

"Young master, please sit down quickly. Are you going to make a pot of Western Regions grape wine? Do you want to find a few Western Regions dancers to accompany you?" As soon as Huo Guang entered the store, a guy dressed up came up to him. However, this guy was not from the Western Regions, but a real Han man. Because Huo Guang was dressed well, this guy was also a delicate person, and he could tell at a glance that Huo Guang was a noble person.

"Uh... I'll just take a look, let's have a pot of wine bar." Huo Guang is not interested in the dancer's wine, but he really wants to taste the wine two thousand years ago.

"Okay, wait a moment, come soon!" Although the guy was a little disappointed, it was good to ask for a pot of wine. You should know that a pot of Western Regions wine is valuable, and a pot of wine is almost enough for a month for ordinary family life.

"Owner, let the little beauty Li Yan come out for me!" Just as Huo Guang found Zhang Xiaotiao and sat down and waited for the guy to get the wine, suddenly a table of people not far away from him slammed the table and stood up and shouted loudly.

"Li Yan? Why does this name sound familiar? Could it be that I can see any bloody plot when I enter a tavern?" Huo Guang was also shocked by the sudden roar of this man, but the name Li Yan made Huo Guang feel a little familiar.

Huo Guang looked at the person who stood up. He was about thirty years old and should be almost thirty years old. He was so arrogant. In addition, he was dressed very expensively and there were four or five followers sitting next to him. Huo Guang estimated that this was another bloody plot of a rich young man teasing a working girl in a hotel!
