Chapter 41 Huge foreign relatives

When it was time to go to Changping Hou Mansion, Huo Qubing did not go to the palace on that day. Early in the morning, a team of people drove out of the Champion Hou Mansion, two of which were more than ten horses and cavalry guarding, and the banner was naturally the Champion Hou.

Among the two carriages were Huo Qubing and his son and Huo Guang respectively. The first carriage was Huo Qubing and Huo Xian, and the second carriage was Huo Guang alone. The more than ten cavalry accompanying him were Huo Qubing's twelve guards.

Although many streets in Chang'an City were crowded in the morning, whether it was pedestrians on the street or riding horses and chasing cars, they naturally made way for Huo Qubing to see the ceremonial guards coming. Although Huo Qubing had no reputation, the Chinese people's idea of ​​respecting the powerful has always been deeply rooted.

From Beique Jiadi to Xuanpingli, where the Changping Hou Mansion is located, you need to cross Chang'an City from west to east. Even if you have a carriage, it took more than ten minutes to travel.

Huo Qubing and his party drove directly into Changping Hou Mansion. There was a place where horse carriages and horses were parked in the backyard of the Hou Mansion. When Huo Guang walked off the carriage, he saw that there were several people standing in front of him, and the three leaders were all teenagers of about the same age as him.

"I've seen my cousin, I guess this one is A Guang's cousin?" The oldest among the three teenagers saluted Huo Qubing, and then looked at Huo Guang with a smile on his face and asked. The two teenagers behind him also nodded to Huo Guang with a smile on their faces.

Although Huo Guang had never seen these three people in front of him, it was obvious that these three young men were Wei Qing's three sons. The eldest son Wei Kang, the second son Wei Buyi, and the youngest son Wei Deng. The person who spoke just now should be the eldest son Wei Kang.

"Huo Guang has met three cousins." Without Huo Qubing's introduction, Huo Guang gave a deep salute to the three of them.

"Why should my brother be so polite? My cousin and my cousin have arrived. Let's go there first." Wei Kang stood aside and signaled Huo Qubing and Huo Guang to enter the mansion first, and the cousin and brother-in-law he mentioned should be Princess Wei and Cao Xiang, the Marquis of Pingyang.

"Well, let's go first." Huo Qubing pulled Huo Xian up like walking in the mansion. He was no stranger to Huo Qubing, the Marquis of Changping, and even here was like in his own mansion.

In fact, when it comes to Wei Qing's three sons, it is also a legend in the Han Dynasty. Because these three were already named Marquis when they were in their infancy a few years ago. Among them, Wei Kang was Marquis of Yichun, Wei Bu suspected of being Marquis of Yin'an, Wei Deng was Marquis of Fagan, and the three of them had fiefs of 1,300 households.

Huo Guang walked with the three brothers of Wei, and he also looked at the three of them intentionally or unintentionally, and had to sigh at the distinguishedness of the Wei family. The father and son were all marquises. This kind of honor is rare in the ages!

However, from the fact that Wei Qing's three sons were granted a marquis, another problem was explained, that is, none of these three sons were Wei Qing's legitimate sons. Because according to the regulations of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing's marquis could only be succeeded by the legitimate son, and the identity of the legitimate son was "Since Changping Marquis". Inheriting the title also means that the ancestors had heirs to worship, and the third son was named a marquis, which only means that the three sons were all concubines. In addition, there was no record of the three mothers in history books. It also did show that Wei Qing's legitimate son was another, but it was very likely that the legitimate son died at a very young age. This also explains why the historical records record that Wei Kang finally inherited the marquis of Changping because Princess Pingyang could not bear Wei Qing's successor, so he asked Emperor Wu of Han to inherit it specially.

As for who Wei Qing's legitimate son was, Huo Guang had no intention of delving into it. Soon Huo Guang followed everyone to the lobby of Changping Hou Mansion. The decoration and specifications here were basically the same as those of the Champion Hou Mansion, so although it was his first time, Huo Guang didn't feel curious about it.

"Qubing and A Guang are here. You probably don't recognize A Guang, right? You should call him cousin by seniority." As soon as you walked into the lobby, Wei Qing hurriedly greeted Huo Qubing and Huo Guang. At the same time, Huo Guang also saw a luxuriously dressed strange woman, and the woman was Cao Xiang, the Marquis of Pingyang that Huo Guang had met in Pingyang, Hedong.

"I have met the eldest princess and met the Marquis of Pingyang." Huo Guangli paid tribute to Princess Dangli and the Marquis of Pingyang in a comprehensive manner. Although this was a family banquet, it was the first time we met. Huo Guang still had to be polite.

"Haha, I heard from my uncle that A Guang is different. Now it seems that your child is too mature!" Princess Dangli smiled beautifully, and he looked at Huo Guang like an older sister looking at her younger brother. Because Princess Dangli has been favored since childhood, and she has too many halos, her life has always been very happy, and her personality is also very cheerful. This is the first time she saw Huo Guang, she joked about Huo Guang.

"This... Cousin, don't make fun of me!" After Huo Guang officially met Princess Dangli, he naturally changed his name and called him cousin.

As soon as Huo Guang said this, everyone nodded secretly. Even Princess Dangli looked at him differently, and then smiled brighter and said, "You good boy, it turns out that you are playing with your cousin!"

"Our family hasn't been together like this for a long time, but unfortunately the status of the queen and the prince is not suitable for coming. However, Princess Pingyang and Marquis Ruyin will come later." Wei Qing was also very happy to see the family gathering together. Of course, strictly speaking, Wei Zifu has two daughters, one Princess Zhuyi and the other Princess Shiyi. However, the status of these two women is not as good as Princess Dangli. Moreover, although Wei Qing invited everyone in the form of a family banquet today, he was also worried and did not invite these two princesses.

"Oh, my mother is coming too? I heard that he and Ruyin Hou went to the sealed country for a while, and I haven't seen my mother for a while." When the Marquis of Pingyang Cao Xiang heard that his mother was coming, he knew in his heart that what he was going to discuss today must be extraordinary. However, Cao Xiang had no feelings for Ruyin Hou Xiahou Po, the stepfather, and in this era, once a woman remarries, it will have nothing to do with the original family.

Speaking of which, Princess Pingyang actually has no blood relationship with Wei Huo’s relatives, but because Wei Zifu and Wei Qing were both his slaves, and her indescribable relationship with Wei Qing made her an important member of Wei Huo’s relatives. Moreover, because Princess Pingyang’s special identity, even Ruyin Hou Xiahou Po became a force for Wei Huo’s relatives.

Huo Guang sorted out the identities and relationships of these people in his heart again, and had to admit that these people were indeed a terrible force, a force that even the emperor would fear for.

"Marty, Princess Pingyang and Marquis Ruyin have arrived." Just as Wei Qing and others were joking, the servants of the Marquis of Changping came in and told that Princess Pingyang had arrived.

"I understand, let's go and welcome the princess." Wei Qing stood up first and walked out. Although the identities of Wei Qing and others are already very noble today, Princess Pingyang still has an irreplaceable position in the hearts of Wei Qing and others. I am afraid that in the entire Han Dynasty, only Princess Pingyang could alarm these people to go out to welcome them.

Huo Guang naturally followed everyone and walked with the three Wei brothers. Wei Qing was at the front, followed by Princess Dangli and Huo Qubing, and behind were Huo Guang and Wei brothers.

When Wei Qing and others arrived at the main gate of Changping Hou Mansion, they saw Princess Pingyang get off the carriage with the help of a man in her forties. At this moment, Princess Pingyang leaned sideways, and Huo Guang didn't see her appearance clearly, but it could be roughly seen that Princess Pingyang is a woman in her forties and looks a little fat. Of course, if it were another word, it could be said to be plump.

"My minister Wei Qing, Huo Qubing pays homage to the princess." As soon as Princess Pingyang stood still, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing both stepped forward and bowed to Princess Pingyang very respectfully.

"Haha, Qing'er, Xiao Qubing, why are you two so disgusted? Why are you all coming out? Let's go in and talk." Princess Pingyang hurriedly stepped forward and helped Wei Qing and Huo Qubing up. Judging from the names she called them, the relationship was indeed at the point where relatives were not better than relatives.

"Will my mother be healthy when she is close?" Cao Xiang, the Marquis of Pingyang, walked forward and supported Princess Pingyang. At this time, Huo Guang truly saw Princess Pingyang's appearance. To be honest, Princess Pingyang is only as handsome as a man, but she is better at maintaining her well. Although she is over forty years old, she still can't see any wrinkles on her face.

As for the Marquis of Ruyin, Xiahou Po, who was beside him, he just bowed to everyone at this time. Especially when he and Marquis of Pingyang Cao Xiang nodded awkwardly. Speaking of which, it was indeed a bit difficult for these two people. Although both of them were Marquis of the title, Marquis of Pingyang were Marquis of Wanhu, and their status was always higher than Marquis of Ruyin. In addition, Xiahou Po has now married Cao Xiang's biological mother. Although the two have been in the same interest group, they have no intersection in private and even deliberately avoid meeting.

Princess Pingyang's eyes swept across everyone's body, and stopped slightly when it fell on Huo Guang. Perhaps because everyone else was familiar with her, Huo Guang was a strange face. Wei Qing seemed to notice Princess Pingyang's strangeness and hurriedly whispered beside her: "Princess, this is A Guang I mentioned to you. We might as well listen to his opinion this time!"

"You are A Guang? Come to the mansion more often when you have nothing to do in the future." Princess Pingyang always maintains a graceful smile, showing the temperament of a princess of a great country, making people unconsciously feel close. Huo Guang also has to admit that none of these famous figures in history are ordinary people.

"Thank you for your kindness, Princess, Guang must come to listen to the princess's teachings from time to time." Huo Guang said respectfully. Huo Guang didn't know about Princess Pingyang's character at all. Moreover, she was not as good as Princess Dangli, and she could have some relatives with Huo Guang like Princess Dangli, so Huo Guang could not be as casual as she faced Princess Dangli.

"Haha, this child is still polite to me... Qing'er, look at what you taught these children?" Princess Pingyang seemed to feel that Huo Guang was a little disgusted with her, but she pointed the finger at Wei Qing, as if she was to blame Wei Qing for not teaching well.

"The princess's lesson is that Wei Qing has prepared a banquet. Why not just ask me to use the wine instead of punishment and apologize to the princess?" Wei Qing quickly said yes, as if nothing Princess Pingyang said was right. This great Han general who made the Huns frightened, would never have a temper in front of Princess Pingyang.

Then Huo Guang and everyone returned to the inner hall again, but this time the inner hall was filled with banquets. Huo Guang was naturally led to his seat, and the banquet was also very particular in the ranking. It was not the master Wei Qing, but Princess Pingyang who sat in the main seat. Under Princess Pingyang, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were tied with each other, and then the Marquis of Pingyang, Princess Dangli and Marquis of Ruyin. Huo Guang, the three brothers of Wei and Huo Xian were at the bottom.

Huo Guang knew that this so-called banquet was actually just a form, and the real focus was the matter after the banquet. But Huo Guang didn't know how this huge group of foreign relatives would start discussing major events, and who would really play a leading role in this group?
