Chapter 56 Brotherhood

"Zheng..." Huo Guang hesitated for a moment, but he still pulled out the sword from his waist. With the sound of the sword being unsheathed, Huo Guang's sword tip pointed directly into Zhong Wuxi's chest.

If Huo Guang's thoughts in later generations, he actually had enough reason to forgive Zhong Wuqi, because although Zhong Wuqi assassinated himself, he did not kill him in the end. Such a result would be an attempt to kill someone even if he used the criminal law of later generations, and there was also the act of termination of crimes. Even in later generations with relatively sound legal system, Zhong Wuqi would not be punished and died.

But Huo Guang also understood that he was already a Han Dynasty person. Since he had made up his mind to fully integrate into this era, his behavior should meet the standards of this era.

Finally, Huo Guang stabbed the sword in his hand with force, and he felt that the sword seemed to have torn layers of cloth. When the sword stabbed, thick blood emerged from Zhong Wuqi's chest along the sword body. Huo Guang pulled the sword out of Zhong Wuqi's body and saw that Zhong Wuqi's face quickly pale. After a few breaths, Zhong Wuqi, who was standing, suddenly collapsed. In less than half a minute, a fresh life ended.

Killing is difficult, but after actually killing someone, Huo Guang felt that killing someone was very simple.

Huo Guang found that neither Huo Qubing nor the Lord of the Unknown Pavilion nor the elders showed any regrets about Zhong Wuqi's death. Even Elder Ri, who was Master Zhong Wuqi, just sighed slightly, as if in the eyes of these people, Zhong Wuqi's death was the consequence of his own.

"A Guang, let's go." Huo Qubing inserted his sword back into the scabbard, then said and turned around and left.

The people in the Dark Pavilion had no intention of stopping them, so they let Huo Qubing and Huo Guang leave. It can be said that this ending was completely beyond Huo Guang's imagination, because it was too far from Huo Guang's imagination of slapping the scene in the face. Even in the later generations where online novels are rampant, Huo Guang has seen countless scenes, but there is no such scene of the ending.

"Buried Wusheng!" The old pavilion master waved his hand and said, then turned around and left. The Mozhe advocated burial and never spent his wealth and energy on dead people. He probably found a place to dig a hole in Jiawutai and buried it.

Huo Guang was still following Huo Qubing, but Huo Guang looked absent-minded on the way back. This trip to the Dark Pavilion seemed a little puzzled, but in fact it was a great inspiration for Huo Guang.

This is the different ideas caused by different times. A person from later generations cannot understand the behavior of this era without fully integrating into this era. Similarly, if people from the Han Dynasty were allowed to see society two thousand years later, they would also feel that the behavior of later generations was incredible.

Huo Qubing didn't talk to Huo Guang along the way. Until he walked past the cliff again, Huo Qubing took the initiative to speak: "This is the end of this matter. If you want to eradicate Sang Hongyang, it seems that you can only start from other aspects."

Huo Guang's thoughts were pulled back to Sang Hongyang by Huo Qubing. It has to be said that Huo Guang's biggest enemy is Sang Hongyang, and Huo Guang also attaches great importance to this person. Just imagine a person who has only met once and is not considered a conflict of life and death, and who dares to hire a killer in this way, what else can't be done?

"Brother, I want to explain something to you." At this moment, the two brothers were standing on the edge of the cliff. Both of them stopped and looked at the rolling sea of ​​clouds not far away.

"What's up?"

"At the beginning of last month, His Highness the Crown Prince summoned me. On that day, His Highness said that this month's third day, that is, tomorrow, I invited me to hunt in Shanglinyuan. I have some ideas and want to discuss with my brother." Huo Guang thought that tomorrow would be the day for Prince Liu Ju to hunt in Shanglin, and many of Huo Guang's thoughts in his heart should find an opportunity to say that he knew with Huo Qubing that there are only two brothers at the moment, which is the best time.

"Crown Prince? What do you think?" When it comes to Crown Prince Liu Ju, Huo Qubing was also very concerned. In fact, there was no need to be much worse for Huo Guang and Huo Xian.

"There are no outsiders here, so I will express my true thoughts in my heart. I hope my brother won't blame me! I'll tell you, I think that the power of Wei Huo's relatives is too large now, which is not a good thing for us. Moreover, my brother's actions yesterday cannot guarantee that he did not leave a bad feeling in His Majesty's heart. I think Your Majesty may have become wary of our Wei Huo family!" If there is only one person in this world who deserves Huo Guang's trust, then the last person is Huo Qubing, so Huo Guang said what he never dared to say in front of Huo Qubing, which is also the idea he buried in his heart for a long time.

After Huo Guang finished speaking, Huo Qubing did not say anything immediately, but held the sword tightly with his right hand, stared at the sea of ​​clouds with his eyes, letting the mountain wind blow on his robe, without a trace of expression on his face.

"What do you think?" Huo Qubing said seriously after a long time. Huo Guang also knew that with the wisdom of Huo Qubing and Wei Qing, it was impossible not to know the threat of the Wei and Huo forces to Emperor Wu of Han. They even knew in their hearts that Emperor Wu of Han might have been secretly guarding against people like him. However, to this point, both Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were already in a difficult position. Should they be asked to hand over the title of military power? What should the prince do if he does this? What should his subordinates do?

Once power is obtained, it is not something you can give up just by saying you give up. Because even if you are willing to give up, others will not agree. Even when you voluntarily give up your power, your opponent will let you die without a burial place!

"For Your Majesty, I am still like a bamboo slip without engravings. My idea is to stay away from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and hand over the completely blank bamboo slip to His Majesty." Huo Guang lowered his head and said. This practice was actually Huo Guang's original way of establishing himself in history. It was precisely because he did not contact the crown prince too much that he gained the ultimate trust of Emperor Wu of Han.

"This...but this will be a bit unfair to you!" Huo Qubing did not show any surprises, but looked at Huo Guang reluctantly. Because once Huo Guang acted like this, it would definitely make the prince resentful. Many relatives of Wei and Huo would even think that Huo Guang was a traitor and would be criticized by many people.

"Brother, being with the king is like being with a tiger. If doing this can leave a way out for the Wei Huo family, I don't care about other people's eyes." Huo Guang said firmly. He really doesn't want the Wei Huo family to completely collapse due to a witchcraft case in the future. Although Huo Guang may still change history, there must be no preparations left behind.

"A good person who is accompanied the king is like a tiger. It is indeed necessary to do this. Since you have your own ideas, do it according to your ideas! No matter what happens, I will always support you for you!" Huo Qubing said with emotion, and he also deeply recognized the metaphor of accompanied the king is like a tiger. Huo Guang has a blind admiration for Huo Qubing. In fact, Huo Qubing also has some inexplicable trust in Huo Guang. In Huo Qubing's feelings, Huo Guang's decision seems to be wrong, so he agreed to Huo Guang after thinking about it carefully.

"Brother, I don't know if I should say it or not?" Huo Guang was actually able to basically confirm Huo Qubing's view before. At least Huo Guang's development in history was like this. There is a way that Huo Qubing's arrangements. But there is a saying that even Huo Guang is not sure about how Huo Qubing would answer. Anyway, the two brothers have completely had a heart-to-heart talk today, so it would be better to ask them one by one.

"You and my brothers have nothing to say." Huo Qubing turned his body slightly, stretched out his wide palm and slapped Huo Guang's shoulder heavily.

Huo Guang looked at Huo Qubing's eyes, took two steps back, and actually knelt on the ground with one knee, then took off his sword from his waist and raised it to his head and said, "If one day, Your Majesty wants to eliminate Wei Huo, how should your brother deal with it? And how should you deal with it?"

Huo Guang's voice was not loud, but these words fell into Huo Qubing's ears like thunder. Even Huo Qubing, who had always collapsed in front of Mount Tai and his expression remained unchanged, could not help but shake his body when he heard this.

For a moment, the cliff was silent, and only the sound of the sea of ​​clouds was rolling. After a long time, Huo Qubing reached out to pick up the sword raised by Huo Guang, then pulled out the sword, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at Huo Guang.

This sword was given to Huo Qubing by Wei Qing, and then Huo Qubing gave to Huo Guang during the Battle of Mobei. This sword can almost be regarded as a thing passed down from generation to generation by Wei Huo relatives, as if it were a kind of inheritance and a responsibility. In Huo Guang's view, only those who can provoke the entire Wei Huo family are qualified to own this sword.

"My uncle and I started in a short time. We had to meet Your Majesty's wise ruler. Now, everything is given by Your Majesty. If Your Majesty wants to take back all this one day, my uncle and I should obey our orders." After a long silence, Huo Qubing said a little lonely. In fact, when every person with power reaches the peak of his power, he will naturally consider the moment of losing his power.

However, when Huo Qubing said these words, Huo Guang couldn't help but sank. He never thought that Huo Qubing, who was the best in history, was just a pedantic person. There was also the idea that "the king wanted the minister to die and the minister had to die."

"But you are different... If there is really one day, A Guang, I hope you can make the incense of Weihuo Clan Temple Yongchang!" Suddenly Huo Qubing said loudly. At this moment, Huo Guang raised his head suddenly, and his eyes showed an excited look. At this moment, Huo Guang saw that the sword that was originally pointing to him had been adjusted by Huo Qubing, and the one facing him had turned into a hilt of the sword.

Huo Guang has only truly known Huo Qubing now. It turns out that he is indeed not a pedantic person. If Huo Qubing had not died young in history, perhaps the history of the Han Dynasty would have been completely different!

"Zheng..." Huo Guang reached out and pulled out the sword directly from Huo Qubing's hand, then pointed the sword with one finger, and pointed the tip of the sword straight to the sky. Then Huo Guang recited and said, "I, Huo Guang, swear to the sky, that I will never disappoint my brother."

Then Huo Guang put the sword into the sheath and hung it on his waist again. This time he felt that it was still the sword, which was completely different. Huo Qubing looked at Huo Guang with satisfaction and suddenly gave Huo Guang a strong bear hug. Huo Guang knew that from this moment on, the future of Wei and Huo's relatives had begun to be in his own hands!
