Chapter 825 Young General vs. Rich Lady 128
Wan Ping stood aside with his hands hanging down, not saying a word of advice, and even wanted to say "good".
He used to serve the previous king, and later devoted himself to serving the young King Wei. King Wei was indeed still young, but he was also the ruler of a country, but no one in the court took King Wei seriously.
The Regent is a vicious tiger, only one step away from usurping the throne. If anything happens to the young Prince Wei, the Regent is the late prince's younger brother, so it is perfectly legitimate for him to succeed to the throne.
The Queen Mother had no choice but to support Gou Xun, but Gou Xun was a cunning wolf who controlled the government and hoped that Prince Wei would never rule the country.
There are wolves in front and tigers behind. If Huo Xiao can go back to Wangdu, the situation will not be worse. At least for now, Huo Xiao has no hostility towards the young King Wei, but is very dissatisfied with the Regent and Gou Xun. This is a good thing.
Huo Xiao has the military power and ability to suppress the Regent. Only when the little Prince Wei grows up safely can we talk about the future.
The Queen Mother knew very well that this was another attempt to invite a wolf into the house. If she was not careful, Weiguo would change his surname to Huo. But she had no other choice. She repeatedly warned Wan Ping to be respectful. Whether he could be invited back was another matter, but he must not offend Huo Xiao.
The twenty strokes of the cane were quickly completed, and the Huo family army dragged the man out like a dead dog.
There were several cars parked outside the general's mansion. These officials all had their entourage. They were shocked and angry, but they did not dare to confront the Huo family army. The Huo family army stared at them and escorted them all the way out of the city.
In the general's mansion, Huo Xiao asked Wan Ping to sit down.
"Serve tea to Eunuch Wan. I have always been a reasonable person. I will not offend others unless they offend me. Your Majesty the Prince of Wei is young, and many of the imperial edicts were not issued by Your Majesty. All the previous injustices have their perpetrators. Your Majesty is the king and I am the subject. If Your Majesty summons me, I will naturally go back."
"Next spring, after the spring ploughing, I will return to Wangdu to pay my respects to Your Majesty. A year's plan begins in spring. Pingyang City has just regained some vitality, and I cannot ignore it. Besides, I really need to take care of my health. This is not a lie."
Huo Xiao had already made up his mind that when he went to Wangdu, he would definitely bring the bronze mirror with him. During the spring ploughing season, the gods would send seeds and supplies. After the ploughing, there would be nothing major to worry about.
Wan Ping was very happy. No matter how long it took, as long as he could invite General Huo back, it would be fine.
On New Year's Eve of that year, Ji Yunhuan found a beautiful island for vacation. He played there until after the Lantern Festival before going back to work.
After the beginning of spring, the weather was good and it rained for several days in a row. Spring rain is as precious as oil, and the long-lasting drought was finally solved.
The Lingjiang River water was introduced into Pingyang City, and rice and more importantly, cotton were planted. The textile industry here has developed quite well.
Guangling City is large and has coal mines. Ji Yun sent some machines there, hoping that Zhuo Zhantu could forge better steel as soon as possible. Crops of various types were also grown in Guangling City.
The area near Lingjiang is fertile soil and endless plains, which are also suitable for mechanized farming, making farming more labor-saving.
After the spring plowing, Ji Yunhuan was surprised to find that the merit value on the bronze mirror had increased to one million!
The floating small characters turned into a flashy pink color, with hearts coming out of them, as if afraid that Ji Yunhuan couldn't see it.
Ji Yunhuan was very excited. Finally, it was night. She changed into pajamas, opened a bottle of red wine to cheer herself up, and knocked on the bronze mirror and shouted, "Xiaoxiao! Xiaoxiao! Are you there?"
Huo Xiao's face appeared in the bronze mirror. He seemed to have just taken a shower. There were still a few drops of water on his face, flowing down along his angular jawline and disappearing into his collarbone. He was so damn sexy!
It's a pity that she was wearing a white pajamas with the overlapping collar covered tightly, which was really in the way!
Ji Yunhuan said proudly: "Why are you still so reserved with me? When you meet your girlfriend in the future, wear less. Of course, you can wear nothing. I'm just afraid that you'll be too shy. I'm still very considerate and I care about you."
Huo Xiao had a smile on his face. He knew that Ji Yunhuan loved to watch, so of course he had to dress more tightly so that she would beg to watch.
"Huan'er looks great today too. The red color suits you very well and your skin is as white as snow."
Ji Yunhuan took a sip of red wine and said, "I don't look good any day, stop talking nonsense, take off your clothes quickly and let me feel your eight-pack abs!"
Huo Xiao took off his clothes slowly, revealing his muscular upper body. After eating well for so long, the injuries on Huo Xiao's body had completely healed. He was not the type of person who would be easily scarred, so his shoulders, back, and arms were all smooth and his skin was quite white.
But the injury to the abdomen was too severe, leaving a finger-long mark across the right abdominal muscle.
Ji Yunhuan reached out to touch it, and Huo Xiao moved closer, but he was just pretending to do it since he couldn't touch it anyway.
The palms of their hands were placed together through the mirror, and Ji Yunhuan suddenly felt a warmth. She touched Huo Xiao's palm and could even feel the calluses and lines on his hands.
"Huo Xiao, I really touched you!" Ji Yunhuan shouted excitedly.
Huo Xiao also felt the softness in the palm of his hand, like the finest silk, smooth and flawless, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not break through that thin barrier and grasp the god's hand.
"Damn mirror! Can you be more forceful? What's the point of touching your hands? I want to touch my abdominal muscles!"
Ji Yunhuan stretched out her hand with all her strength, and the mirror surface rippled like water waves. Her hand really penetrated the mirror and firmly grasped Huo Xiao's hand!
"Ahhh! Huo Xiao! I caught you!"
Ji Yunhuan grabbed around excitedly, and stretched out one hand from the mirror. It was indeed very strange, but Huo Xiao accepted it well and obediently let the god touch him.
"Oh, such beautiful chest muscles! Oh, Xiaoxiao, do you think I'm too lustful? Although I like your appearance, I value your inner self more. Hehe~"
Huo Xiao grabbed Ji Yunhuan’s hand and put it on his face, “As long as Huan’er likes it.”
If the gods didn't like this appearance, what else could he use to seduce the gods?
Ji Yunhuan was not tall enough, so he could only stand on tiptoe. He asked excitedly, "Why don't you try to reach out your hand?"
Ji Yunhuan pulled Huo Xiao's hand over, and with her holding it, Huo Xiao's hand really penetrated the mirror.
[Ding! Detected that a creature from the outside world has entered. Do you want to consume 10,000 merit points to open the passage? ]
Ten thousand merit points is not a lot, Ji Yunhuan is now generous, "Open, open, open, quickly send my boyfriend over."
Ji Yunhuan was originally holding Huo Xiao's hand tightly, but just as she finished speaking, she felt her hand lighten. Huo Xiao was such a big man, but she just pulled him towards her like that!
The bronze mirror flashed for a moment, then returned to its normal state and became a normal mirror.
Ji Yunhuan wasn't paying attention and fell backwards onto the bed. She looked up at Huo Xiao blankly, feeling like she was dreaming.
When Huo Xiao came over, he felt dizzy, but it was still bearable and not a big problem. He took a step forward and half-knelt in front of Ji Yunhuan, still a head taller than Ji Yunhuan.
He took Ji Yunhuan's hand and said softly, "Huan'er, I'm here."
Ji Yunhuan screamed, threw herself on Huo Xiao, hugged Huo Xiao's neck, kissed Huo Xiao hard on the face, and said happily: "I'm finally not in an online relationship, hahaha... I finally met a real boyfriend, so handsome!"
