Huan Rong

Chapter 229 The Edict of Zen

When Sima Yao walked into the main hall, the officials suddenly stopped discussing and looked at the emperor in unison, and the hall became dead silent.

At this moment, the shouts of generals and soldiers suddenly sounded outside the hall, and the voices were uniform, asking the queen mother to retreat to the harem and the emperor to rule in person.

The ministers looked inexplicable, looking at Sima Yao, their expressions were somewhat cryptic.

Sima Yao sat at the head, his face livid and his whole body stiff.At this moment, he finally understood what the "consequence" Huan Rong was talking about, and he completely dispelled the last trace of luck.

If you don't read the imperial edict and don't abdicate at this time, let alone continue to be a puppet, you may lose your life.

When he was in the side hall, he had secretly thought about how to accuse the edict in Huan Rong's hand as false, so as to delay it for a while.After thinking about it, I still can't find a way.

The emperor passed away, but Sima Yi is still alive and well!

No need to spend much time, as long as you bring people to Taicheng and say in front of the ministers that "the edict of the Zen throne was issued before the emperor was abolished", he and his father will be beaten as "usurpers".

Will it implicate the courtiers who supported the father at that time?

The sentence "Being deceived, I don't know the inside story" can immediately throw the pot away.To prove his innocence, he even helped Huan Rong step his father and son deeper into the mud.

Those who know the current affairs are handsome.

Think back to the beginning, when the ruler of Wei replaced Han, and the emperor of Jin took over Wei, how did the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty do it?

The situation is better than people.

In the face of absolute strength, Sima Yao had no other choice but to bow his head obediently and read out the imperial edict to abdicate the throne.If not, I'm afraid I won't even be able to get out of the Tai Chi Hall!

Sitting on the throne, Sima Yao looked down at the ministers, facing accusations and suspicions, he remained silent.

It wasn't until Huan Rong came back and sat down that Xi Yin lowered his head that he woke up from his meditation.Gripping the edict of the Zen seat tightly, he looked at where Huan Rong was, and met a smiling face in an instant, shivered subconsciously, and instinctively covered his lower abdomen that was still aching.

Outside the hall, the shouts of generals and soldiers became louder and louder.

The sound of music and drums had already stopped, and the musicians and singers looked panic-stricken, lowered their heads, and did not dare to move at all.

Sima Yao's face turned greener.

Seeing that some of the officials were getting impatient and about to get up to ask questions, they immediately took a deep breath, and before the other party could speak, handed the edict to the eunuch who was waiting on the side, gritted his teeth and said a word: "Read!"

"promise!"

The eunuch held up the bamboo slips respectfully, stepped forward half a step, and was about to read aloud.

Unable to accept the thought, the courtier who got up hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is always a regulation for returning to the government, and it needs the Empress Dowager's permission, and the three provinces will draft an edict!"

Sima Yao ignored it, and still said to the eunuch, "Read!"

Without hesitation, the eunuch immediately unfolded the bamboo slips and said loudly: "I have been in office for three years, and the Central Plains was overthrown, and the barbarian thieves were entrenched. The people of the world.

Destiny returns, the virtuous live there.Therefore, there are the sages of Yao and Shun, and the rule of Xia Yu.

Today, looking up at the changes in the sky and looking down at the people, only luck is in Huan.

Abandoned by the sky and abandoned by the Jin Dynasty, one who returns to virtue.

Today, following the old classics of the Han and Wei Dynasties, it is inferior to Linhai. Zen is located in the son of the Huan family, and it is passed down to the jade seal of the country.I hope to chase the Hu thieves from the north, rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, restore the Central Plains, and flourish China again.

The edict is announced to the world, the treasure book is set on a date, and the grand ceremony is held. "

After the edict was announced, the eunuch retreated to Sima Yao's side.

The hall fell into dead silence again, and the shouts outside the hall gradually stopped.

The officials looked at each other in blank dismay, some were stunned, some were skeptical, and some were confident.However, no one responded to the order, and no one stood up to speak out to persuade the emperor to withdraw his intention to abdicate.

Huan Rong was about to get up, but was held down by Xi Yin's raised hand.

The latter shook his head slightly, stood up on his behalf, scanned the left and right Wenwu, then faced Sima Yao, held up the wat board, and said in his mouth: "Your Majesty is wise."

The fall of the four characters is tantamount to a conclusion.

It is true that Huan Rong has strength, but his words in the court are still not as important as Xi Yin.

Xi Chengxiang made a positive statement, no matter whether he agrees or not, no one will refute it in person at this moment, and he is so bold as to deliberately sing a different tune.

As for whether the generals outside the hall were arranged by Sima Yao, it doesn't matter now.

The important thing is that the Long Kanghuan family and the Gaoping Xi family have clearly reached a tacit agreement.Seeing the Langya Wang family who echoed, and the Taiyuan Wang family and Chen Jun Xie family who were silent but did not immediately object, everyone was shocked, and a flash of light quickly flashed in their minds.

After Xi Yin and Wang Biaozhi, several other officials got up, and Xi Chao was among them.

After the Qiao surname, the Wu surname quickly joined.

Since Sima Yao ascended the throne, this was the first time he was praised as "wise", and it was unanimously agreed by the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, which inevitably makes people feel ironic.

Looking down at the officials, Sima Yao's face sank like water.

He expected this result, but facing it seriously, it was really unacceptable, and the taste was even more unspeakable.

When the Lord of Wei took the Zen position, some officials said that they were ministers of the Great Wei all their lives and refused to serve the Lord of Jin.What's his turn?From the prime minister down, no one stood up, even said a word!

Even if it is a puppet, there should always be some kind of incense.It's a pity that when things come to an end, these only exist in the imagination.He abdicated the throne today, finally completely cleared the fog in front of him, and saw the civil and military affairs of the Manchu dynasty clearly.

Turning his gaze to Huan Rong, there was a bit of gloom in his anger, and even a hint of schadenfreude.

What about ascending to the throne?

When Huan Rong sat in this position, he would know what the word "puppet" meant.

Sima Yao stood up, didn't say much, he didn't need the eunuch's service, he took off the leather hat and sword himself, walked to Huan Rong, raised his arms horizontally, and bowed deeply.

"From then on, the country, the country, and the people of the world all entrusted to the Dao of respect."

Huan Rong returned the gift solemnly.

It would be too fake to say no at this time, and it would disappoint Xi Yin's good intentions.

It is not easy to make Xi Yin change his position. Instead of procrastinating for fame, it is better to be straightforward and save more time to do some practical things.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Rongding will live up to his trust!"

The edict of the Zen position has just been read, the treasure book has not yet been set up, and the grand ceremony has not yet been held, so the "Your Majesty" is really justified.

Sima Yao nodded, straightened up, ignoring the civil and martial arts on both sides, and walked out of the palace gate.

From today onwards, he is no longer the Lord of Tai City, not even in name.But as usual, he couldn't leave Jiankang immediately, he had to move to Hualin Garden temporarily, wait for Huan Rong to ascend the throne, and then set off with his family.

If Huan Rong keeps his promise, he can still die in Linhai.If not, there is a dead end on the left and right, what difference does it make if you can't leave Jiankang?

Most people did not expect that so many twists and turns would occur on the day of the emperor's wedding.

First, the Taiji Hall was besieged, and the generals clamored to "return to the emperor", and then Sima Yao issued an edict to abdicate, and enthroned Huanrong in front of the officials.

Immediately afterwards, Xi Yin, Wang Biaozhi and others expressed their opinions respectively, and some people who had been kept in the dark finally realized that maybe Sima Yao really wanted to make trouble, but he was in the middle of it, no, maybe he fell into other people's schemes from the very beginning, step by step. Falling into a deep pit, you will end up today.

There are no fools in the court.

There is a scene outside the Taiji Hall, Sima Yao will be forced to abdicate by the officials if he does not take the initiative to abdicate, and even repeats Sima Yi's fate, becoming the second emperor to be deposed in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Thinking about it carefully, Huan Yuanzi had long intended to replace the Jin Dynasty throughout his life as a soldier. Although he died before his ambition was paid, his son fulfilled his ambition on his behalf.

However, thinking of Huan Rong's strength, and Huan Huo Huan Chong and others who hold military power and occupy Jing, Jiang and other places, the faces of the officials changed again.

If Huan Rong ascended the throne, he would definitely not be as "obedient" as Sima.Similarly, the authority of the court will also be re-divided.

Prevent him from ascending the throne?

Most people sighed secretly and shook their heads.The general situation is like this, the overall situation has been determined, and only a few people can turn it around.

The Langya Wang family and the Gaoping Xi family obviously supported Huan Rong, and if they came forward to confront him, they must confront several families.

Xie An had just taken over the Yangzhou Assassin from Huan Huo, and Xie Xuan and Huan Shiqian were leading the army together, and the entanglement of mutual interests was almost on the surface.When a conflict arises, it is self-evident which side Xie will stand on.

Wu Mingming, headed by the Zhou family, did not make a clear statement. Judging from today's performance, more than [-]% will support the "new emperor".

Dating back to the time when Emperor Yuan crossed the river, Wang Dao Wang Dun came to power, and the Wu surname went from prosperity to decline, and even marginalized in the court, only a few decades.Having experienced many "injustices" and accumulated a lot of anger in his heart, he must be happy to see Sima fall into the dust.

When it comes to today's events, it's good not to add insult to injury, and it's absolutely impossible to help.

The Wang family in Taiyuan had no intention of being prominent, and the rest of the civil and military were knowledgeable about current affairs, so they did not take the initiative to be the rafters of the prominent.Huan Rong felt a little regretful for losing the opportunity to make an example of others.

Huan Rong once again warned himself that taking this step today does not actually mean success.

Everything is just the beginning. Next, what he has to face is not Sima Yao, whose head is trapped by the door, so that his brain circuit is distorted, but the elites of various noble families who are surrounded by the sea and have rich political experience.

The power of the court and the interests outside the capital all need to be re-divided, and the process must be done carefully.

Today's friends may turn around and become enemies.Before he can firmly control the monarchy, he must cheer up and deal with the open and dark arrows from all sides.

Looking at Xi Yin, then at Wang Biaozhi and Xie An, Huan Rong already had plans in mind.

After the ceremony, he will not stay in Jiankang.

Excuses are easy to find. In ancient times, the emperors were always on a hunting tour. The most famous one was Qin Shihuang. After the unification of the six kingdoms, he stayed in the capital for only a handful of times, and finally died on the road of hunting.

Emperor Wei Ming of the previous dynasty visited the east three times. He visited the elders in the countryside, sympathized with the sufferings of the people, and bestowed grain and cloth, which was praised by the world.

During the time of Emperor Wen of Wei, some ministers even played "the emperor's great ceremony, the hunting tour is the first; Zhaozu praises you, and the Zen is the first."

The Eastern Jin Dynasty was partial to the south, and the territory was limited, and there were no conditions for enshrining Zen, so patrolling and hunting was a matter of course.

Huan Rong had already made a good route. He set off along the Qinhuai River. First, he went east to Kuaiji, visited the great Confucian who taught him, and then chose a man who happened to be an official to accompany him. He took everyone all the way west to experience the beauty of Youzhou. Prosperity, the martial arts of Yuzhou, by the way, let everyone see the battle flags of Jingzhou and Jiangzhou, and listen to the drums and horns of Liangzhou and Yizhou.

If you have enough time, you can continue westward, along the counties and counties laid down by Huan Shiqian and Wang Xianzhi Xie Xuan, all the way to Guzang to experience the scenery of the Western Regions.

Will someone stop it?

Huan Rong shrugged, not caring at all.

He has money, food, and soldiers, and wants to make trouble?No problem, come, experience the methods of Jia Sheren and Xun Sheren, cry bitterly, repent, and even regret coming to this world.

In the Changle Palace, the eunuch bent down and walked into the inner hall, leaned on the ground, and reported all the affairs of the Taiji Hall, including the soldiers shouting "The queen mother returns to the harem, and the emperor returns to power", after which Sima Yao read the edict of abdication in the hall, and Xi Min , Wang Biaozhi and others praised the wiseness of the emperor.

"After the edict was read, all the generals outside the hall withdrew. The two generals Mao Husheng and Mao Anzhi knelt in front of the hall, saying that the crime was their own, please do not send the soldiers down."

"Oh?" The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows, glanced at Princess Nankang where the old god was present, and asked, "How to deal with the matter?"

"Duke of Huainan County," the eunuch paused, and immediately changed his words, "Your Majesty said that the Mao brothers acted according to orders and were actually loyal to the monarch. Not only did they not commit any crimes, they stayed in their original positions and continued to guard the safety of Taicheng."

The Queen Mother and Hu Shuyi exchanged glances, knowing in their hearts that the two were indeed following orders, but it was hard to say whose order they were following.The only thing that was certain was that it was definitely not Sima Yao.

"The generals everywhere have obtained the order, and they all return to their original positions, and no longer close the gate of the palace."

"After the edict was read out, the official family moved to Hualin Garden." The eunuch paused, seemingly in a bit of trouble, "Xianyang Palace got the news that the queen has not yet moved, and the servants said that there is a hint of disrespect for the official family. language."

The Queen Mother nodded, looked at Princess Nankang, and said, "Nankang, what do you think about this matter? Why don't I send someone over there?"

"It's good for the Queen Mother to make up her mind."

No wonder Wang Fahui was angry, anyone who stood in her position would be angry, wronged or even resentful.

She was already dissatisfied with the married person, but for the sake of the family, she gritted her teeth and married Sima Yao.The result turned out to be good. On the day of the wedding, the Son of Heaven was seated in Zen, and counting with her fingers, she estimated that she was the queen with the shortest "serving" time, not one of them.

Just being locked in the hall without making a sound is already considered good.If it were a grumpy one, it would be possible to directly set fire to the Xianyang Hall.

Anyway, they haven't consummated their marriage yet, so they're going to get a divorce right away?

Sima Yao is not an emperor, but he is also of the blood of the Jin Dynasty. From the perspective of Princess Nankang, he and Huan Rong are still cousins.

Wang Fahui was determined to leave, although he could succeed, but he couldn't wait for Sima Yao to retreat to Linhai and be with Sima Daozi on the day of his wedding.

Considering that she had deceived Wang Fahui, the Queen Mother finally sighed and ordered Da Changle to go to Changle Palace in person to persuade Wang to move to Hualin Garden.

"If you don't want to meet the emperor face to face, just live in the side hall."

"promise."

At the same time, the news spread outside the palace. After the arrangement of Jia Bing and Zhou Chu, rumors pointed out that Sima Yao spared no effort to trap Changle Palace and Taiji Palace in order to be in charge of the government. The clansman forced each other.

Everyone who heard it was shocked.

In connection with Sima Yao's previous reputation, he believed in half or half of it.

As for the Zen edict, it was explained that the Duke of Huainan stepped forward and persuaded the emperor in the side hall not to do such a cruel and tyrannical act.Then Chengxiang Xi and Xie Shizhong persuaded the palace guards who surrounded the Taiji Hall to repent immediately and stop helping the tyrant.

After that, the emperor woke up and was willing to abdicate on his own initiative, and everyone held Huan Rong together.

"How can such an immoral person deserve to be king!"

"After the marriage, the government should be returned to the emperor. Such an eagerness to practice such a cruel method is really not a wise king!"

"In the past, there was a reputation for unfilial piety. I heard that the late emperor had a will before his death, saying that the new emperor has no virtue, and the country is entrusted to the Duke of Huainan County."

"Can't you?"

"Why not? Duke Huainan is the eldest granddaughter of Emperor Yuan and the son of Princess Nankang. His father is Duke Nan, son of the former Great Sima Huan Yuan! Compared to the son of Kunlun's maidservant, isn't he a hundred times better?"

"There is an ancient saying, Husband Huang Tian's order, the virtuous live there!"

There are various rumors, but the central idea is very unified: Sima Yao is unfilial and immoral, Huan Rong's destiny belongs to him!

When the Jiankang City earthquake occurred, Qin Jing had already led an army to take down Jiuquan County, and was turning his horse's head, sending his troops northward to attack Xihai County.

The army was resting on the east bank of Ruoshui. Two eagles flew to them one after another, hovered in mid-air, found Qin Jing's location, lowered their altitude, and uttered a loud and clear cry.

Qin Jing got off her horse, raised her arms to catch the goshawk, and let the black hawk land on her shoulders.Untie the bamboo tube from the eagle's legs, and saw a few lines of writing on the silk cloth, standing facing the wind of the river, not moving for a long time, as if blending into the vast world.

"General?"

"Blow the horn and set off."

"promise!"

The long sound of the horn resounded on both sides of the weak water, and the cavalry flew on their horses one after another.

The horsemen stood up, neighing loudly, and then merged into a pitch-black torrent, sweeping northward amidst the rolling thunder.
