Huan Rong

Ningkang three years, July

A terrifying black wind blew up on the grassland, and all the nomadic Rouran tribes on the border encountered catastrophe.Qin Jing led nearly ten thousand cavalrymen under his command to sweep across, coming and going like the wind, plundering more than a thousand cattle and sheep, and releasing nearly a thousand sheep slaves.

The people in the tribe either died in battle or fled. Only a few young and strong were captured, and they were sent back to Chang'an by special personnel, and handed over to Qin Yu for disposal.

Qin Ce ordered the capital to be moved to Chang'an. The construction and repair of the city and palaces required manpower, and it was impossible to recruit civilians on a large scale. These captives just supplemented it.

If the national treasury is not sufficient, it can also be transported to Nandi City to exchange grain, rice, wheat, cloth, gold and silver.

Huan envoy Chang'an and his party, Fu Jian's private treasury was emptied, and the Diqin treasury fell into Qin's hands.After a period of operation, the treasury has a little more gold, silver, food and fodder, but it is still a bit stretched for the Qin family who took Yecheng and Chang'an, gathered a large population, and intends to send troops to the three Hans.

At this time, it is very important to maintain trade with the south.

The news of Emperor Jin's Zen position spread to the north, and the change of Huan Rong's identity had a certain impact on the covenant between the two parties.It can be said that once the Zen ceremony is completed, this covenant that has lasted for many years will be in jeopardy.

At present, the business in Chang'an and Youzhou is still maintained.As long as they have not officially turned their backs, this business route will not be cut off easily.

As for the Western Regions, it belongs to another charter.

Compared with Jiankang, Chang'an is closer to Guzang, but when it comes to the types of goods and trade prosperity, Chang'an is far from Jiankang's opponent.Considering various aspects, on this business road, the two sides will not easily fight, and peace can still be maintained in the short term.

It's just that when the drums sound, the fighting here may not be weaker than that in the Central Plains.

Qin Jing burned, killed and looted at the border, killing all of Rouran's tribes in fear, and even had no intention of grazing, causing unimaginable damage.

Qin Silang's fierce reputation even surpassed that of the Xiongnu King.When the black armored cavalry attacked, all the tribes in the grassland fled after hearing the news.Many tribes even gave up the rich pastures and moved to Mobei on their own initiative.

It's nothing to live a hard life, it's better than losing your life.

After receiving the news of the relocation of various ministries and knowing the seriousness of the matter, Rouran Royal Court finally couldn't sit still.

King Rouran ordered the warriors of all tribes to unite to expel this terrifying army composed of Han, Qiang, Jie, Xianbei, and a few Di people and Chile.

Unfortunately, although the idea is good, it is difficult to implement.

Rouran King's court is getting weaker and weaker day by day, and the orders of Rouran King are sent out like waste paper.The leaders of the big tribes didn't even look at it, and some of them didn't even want to save face, and directly drove the messenger away.Even though the small tribes were determined, seeing the reaction of the big tribes, they retreated one after another.

These soldiers are strong and strong, and they don't stand out. With their own strength, they jump high and charge forward, aren't they just looking for death?

Several times, King Rouran's wish to send troops failed to come true, but led to another result. More tribes gave up the pastures in Monan and began to move to Mobei.

A few went west into Central Asia and Eastern Europe, and those who went far even encountered the Roman army.

At this time, Rouran did not completely decline, and was swept away by Qin Jing. It was because this person's fighting power was too strong.This is not the case when encountering the declining cavalry of Rome and Eastern Europe. The roles are immediately changed, and all of them are so powerful that the defeated kings and lords recalled the Huns who moved westward during the Han Dynasty and shouted another "God's Whip".

A few others went straight to the east, ran into the border between Shiwei and Kumoxi, and almost fought with the cavalry under Murong Chui's command.

The grassland was turned upside down, and the source of it was just more than 8000 cavalry.

Qin Jing didn't stop there, but continued to search deep into the grassland, not letting go of any traces of the Rouran cavalry.Day after day, all the ministries of Rouran heard rumors that Qin Jing's target was the royal court of Rouran, to be precise, the head of King Rouran!

When King Rouran heard the news, he couldn't think of launching a crusade anymore. He packed up the parcel overnight, ordered people to tear down the big tent, and rushed to Mobei with noble ministers and warriors.

During the migration, there was a dispute between nobles and ministers, and there was an internal strife. Before Qin Jing arrived, he fought first.There were many casualties in the battle, and King Rouran was able to escape, but the royal court no longer existed.

Whether the rumors are true or not is no longer important at this point.

The royal court of Rouran was split, and it was a foregone conclusion that all the ministries of Rouran went their separate ways.

With the migration of the tribes of Rouran, a large area of ​​grassland was deserted, and there was a power vacuum in Monan.The tribes that had been suppressed by Rouran seized the opportunity and began to show their prominence one after another. One of them was the Turks, which were supposed to prosper in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

At this time, the Turks were still a few small tribes, attached to the Tiefu tribe, and did not even have an easy name.Not to mention threatening the Central Plains, even nomads in the grasslands must always be on guard against being attacked by other troops.

The tribal leader heard Qin Jing's name of "Khan King" and witnessed the ferocity of Qin Jing's cavalry, so he personally sent cattle, sheep, gold and silver, hoping to submit to Qin Jing's command.

Compared with the Tiefu Department, which lives day by day, it is obvious that Qin Jing's future here is brighter.

"My ministry is willing to charge into the battle for King Khan, and be the bow and long sword in the hands of King Khan!"

When the tribal leader came to find him, Qin Jing ordered to rest and set up camp by an unknown river.Such rivers often appear in the grasslands in summer and autumn, and will dry up in winter, leaving an inconspicuous river course.

The large tent was erected, and a large banner made of animal skin was erected in front of the tent. The patrolling cavalry were all sturdy, whether Han or Hu, all of them were bloody and ferocious.

The Turkic leader walked into the camp, his calves trembling uncontrollably.

In the big tent, Qin Jing sat high on the head, wearing black armor, without a helmet, and a fierce and cold aura pervaded her body, making it easy for people to ignore that handsome face.

Ranhu, who had taken refuge before, sat on the left and right with the leaders of the various ministries. There were various styles of armor and leather armor, and none of them wore a helmet.

Most of the chiefs who sat with Ranhu wore their hair combed, showing Donghu Xianbei's identity.Several others have the iconic kuntou, a symbol of their ancestral Hun lineage.

The rest can be distinguished from the totems on the face and arms, or they are Qiang Jie, or Di and Chile.

The five or six people closest to Qin Jing looked very different from the Hu people, and they were obviously Han generals.

There is only one counselor in the big tent, surnamed Zhang, named Lian, styled Bokao, who is Zhang Yu's nephew. He joined the army under Qin Jing's tent since he was stationed in Pengcheng.Afterwards, he declined his uncle's intention to transfer him back to Xihe, and followed Qin Jing all the time to conquer the north and south. Compared with a counselor, he was more like a battle-tested wise general.

Knowing that his elder brother had been promoted to General Ying Yang, Zhang Lian didn't show any envy, he just laughed it off.

His wish is to follow Qin Jing to wipe out bandits and protect thousands of Han people.Whether he is an official or not, whether he has a title or not, is not important to him.

Zhang Yu regarded Qin Ce as king, while he regarded Qin Jing as his lord.

The ambitions of the two uncles and nephews diverged. For the latter, he would rather follow Qin Jing to fight on the grasslands than return to Xihe to face the face of various power struggles.

There are quite a few people with the same ambition as Zhang Lian.

There are not many trilogy and generals around Qin Jing, and even if he joined Liu's trilogy, it could not exceed [-].However, these hundreds of people can be entrusted with trust, which is enough to deter the various cavalry who have taken refuge, and help Qin Jing fight all the way and sweep the grassland.

When the Turkic leader entered the account, everyone was discussing whether to continue chasing Mobei to find King Rouran, or to turn around and go west, biting the two Rouran tribes that had been discovered before.

Half of the people thought that they should pursue King Rouran.Although the royal court is weak and has experienced internal strife, King Rouran has accumulated a lot of gold and silver treasures in his hands for several generations.

Others wanted to go west. King Rouran's treasures were speculation after all. The cattle and sheep of these two tribes were real, and they all saw it with their own eyes.

If there is no dispute, we can only ask Qin Jing to make a decision.

Unexpectedly, before Qin Jing opened his mouth, the Turkic leader came to offer treasures and surrender.

Unable to get the desired result, both sides were a little upset, and the look at the Turkic leader was naturally not "friendly".

This kind of performance easily caused a misunderstanding, so that the Turkic leader did not dare to take any chances. He knelt down with a plop, saluted directly, and swore to the gods that he would surrender to the Khan.

"Are you willing to surrender to me and fight for me?"

"Don't dare to tell half a lie!" Seeing that there was something to be said, the Turkic leader was overwhelmed, pulled out a dagger on the spot, cut a bloody gash on his face, and swore a heavy oath.

"Dye the tiger." Qin Jing said.

"The subordinates are here!" Ranhu came out.

"He gave it to you, counted the number of people in the department, and handed it to Zhang Junjun to record it in a book. You can mobilize all the young and strong in the department."

"promise!"

Ran Hu once followed Murong Ping, the Taifu of Yan State, and made some achievements in governing the army and controlling people.At first, he turned to Qin Jing for revenge, but as time passed, after seeing Qin Jing's methods and bravery, he had already eliminated other thoughts and surrendered completely.

He looked down on small tribes like Turks, but Qin Jing issued this order, which meant that he valued him, and naturally he must do his best to run it well and live up to his trust.

At the end of this episode, everyone's topic returned to the marching route.

"A few days ago, my father ordered me to go back to Xihe." Before Qin Jing finished speaking, there was an uproar in the tent.

Call the general back to Xihe at this juncture?

The leader of the barbarians didn't have too many twists and turns in his head, but he also felt that this matter was wrong.

"General, can you delay for a while?" Zhang Lian frowned, obviously thinking that this was not a good omen.

"It doesn't matter." Qin Jing raised his right arm, stopped the noise of the crowd, and said in a deep voice, "The army still needs a batch of leather armor and weapons, and this time it happens to be ready together. Besides, I have long intended to go back to Xihe. Some people, some things, it's time to clean up."

Zhang Lian fell silent.

With Qin Jing's style of doing things, once the determination is made, it must not be changed.Moreover, most of the people and things he mentioned are related to Mrs. Liu who is recuperating in Chang'an.When it comes to Mrs. Liu, things cannot be changed.

"The king of Rouran can't run away, and neither can the ministries of Rouran run away." When Qin Jing spoke, his eyes swept across the crowd, and he said word by word, "When I return from Xihe, I will let you kill me to my heart's content. The cattle and sheep will be slaughtered. Gold, silver and jewels are free to take!"

"promise!"

With Qin Jing's promise, everyone in the tent showed excitement.Thinking of the benefits they will get when they fight back again, they all look happy, their chests thumping, and they even want to howl a few times.

Qin Jing led his troops to Xihe, and the scattered Rouran tribe got a chance to breathe temporarily.

However, the butcher's knife was still hanging above his head, and he never put it away.When the Xihe incident is over and Qin Jing leads his troops back to the grassland, the butcher's knife will only fall faster.

At the same time, Jiankang City welcomed letters from princes and kings from all over the world.

The wording of the letters is not the same, and the time of delivery is also different, but the central idea is the same, they are all asking to get rid of the country and return to the king.

The news of Sima Yao's Zen enthronement spread throughout the states, and all the clan and royal relatives were struck by a thunderbolt.

What Sima Huan failed to do, his son did.

The edict of the Zen position was advertised to the world, and the country changed hands. Sima changed his surname to Huan.

Recalling the story of the early Wei Dynasty, Wang Shengsheng, the princes who enfeoffed all over the country, was shocked.You know what to choose without thinking too much about it.Almost as soon as they got the news, they scrambled to go up to the table, please get rid of the country and the prince.

They didn't even dare to take the marquis, they just wanted to get the status of ordinary nobles, save the lives of the whole family, and die in peace.

The letter was sent to Jiankang, but there was no decision on one of the three provinces, so it was sent to Huan Rong intact.

Regarding this, Huan Rong didn't say anything in front of him, but he sneered repeatedly behind his back.

The trouble he expected had finally arrived.

This is just a trial, if this matter is not handled properly, Chao Zhongwen Wu may think that he can be deceived, and use all kinds of means to evade the monarchy overtly and secretly.

"Bingzhi thinks, how should we deal with this matter?" Huan Rong asked after handing the form to Jia Bing.

"Your Majesty, in the past, the Sima clan took Wei, made the Lord of Wei the king of Chenliu, and all the kings of the Wei clan were reduced to lords." Jia Bing only glanced twice, then put the bamboo slips aside, stroked his long beard under his jaw, and smiled Said, "Your Majesty can still act in the same way. If there is any objection in the court, the minister will have a way to deal with it."

"If you want to be safe, you can recall everyone from the Sima clan to Jiankang."

In short, according to Sima Yan's actions, [-]% of them can stop the mouths of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Not satisfied?

Could it be that he was asked to refer to Cao Pi?

In that case, it would be the treatment of Duke Sanyang.

It is estimated that when the edict was issued, the Sima family did not hate Huan Rong, but the court Chinese military and Jiankang gentry who were holding on to the matter.

Recalling the members of the Sima family back to Jiankang, named Youxie, but actually sending them to Qingxi to raise them directly, not only let the people in the world see that Huan Rong has a kind heart, and will not hurt the lives of the Jin Dynasty, but also completely block all the people from all walks of life. All kinds of miscellaneous troubles, avoiding unnecessary troubles.

People need to spend some food to raise them.When the territory expands and the land and sea trade routes are consolidated, do you still have to worry about this little money?

No matter how bad it is, when the conditions are ripe in the future, select Sima's children to sail with the fleet, so that they have something to do and no time to think about it.

"That's a very good discussion." Huan Rong nodded, and was about to say more when Xun You came to the door, holding two or three scrolls of bamboo slips in his hands.

"Your Majesty." Xun You walked into the room, and after saluting, brought the bamboo slips to Huan Rong.

"The treasure book and imperial edict have been drawn up. In addition, Kong Yu sent someone to send back the news, and the Zen altar has also been set up."

"So fast?" Huan Rong was slightly surprised.

"With Gongshu and Xiangli here, naturally we won't be slow." Xun You said with a smile, "Furthermore, the three provinces sent memorandums. On the day of the grand ceremony, the Kangzong Temple has not yet been built. Please worship the ancestors in the Jianshi Hall."

"En." Huan Rong curled the corner of his mouth, "Didn't you mention Sima's Ancestral Temple?"

"No."

"It's probably Xie Shizhong's idea."

"Your Majesty is wise."

Huan Rong looked at Xun You with squinting eyes, and said dissatisfiedly, "Zhong Ren is becoming more rigid."

"As a courtier, it should be so."

Huan Rong was speechless, looked at the serious Xun You, then looked at the smiling Jia Bing, thought of Zhong Lin who supervised the construction of the abdication platform, and compared it with Shi Shao who rushed back from Yandu and was counting the treasury as a court official. Can't help shaking his head.

Well, everyone has a different personality, and he has to get used to it.

At this moment, a loud eagle cry suddenly came from outside.

Huan Rong's heart skipped a beat, he signaled Jia Bing and Xun You to retreat for the time being, walked to the porch with a few steps, put the sheepskin on his forearm, and caught the flying goshawk.

After untiing the bamboo tube from the eagle's leg, seeing the unique symbols, Huan Rong hesitated for a while, whether he should open it or not.Feeling the feathers brushing against his cheeks, facing the goshawk who tilted his head, he just pulled the corners of his mouth, took out the silk cloth and read carefully.

After reading the whole article, the irritability began to settle.

Leaning against the colonnade, stroking the goshawk's back feathers, thinking of the beacon smoke in the grassland, the changes in the north and the upcoming change of position, Huan Rong looked up at the clouds and remained motionless for a long time.It wasn't until the wind passed through the corridor, lifted the hem of the clothes and puffed up the sleeves that he sighed silently and slowly closed his eyes.

While meditating, his fingers gradually closed in and tightened, until the silk cloth was finally crumpled into a ball and held firmly in the palm of his hand.

--------

Two days before the Zen throne ceremony, Sima Yao finally changed his old style and took the initiative to walk out of Hualin Garden, and went to Changle Palace to meet the Queen Mother and Princess Nankang and ask for instructions on the arrangements after the ceremony.

Upon hearing the news, Wang Fahui sent the eunuchs who came to invite her, and had no intention of going with the "husband master".

Since the edict of abdication was issued and he moved out of the Tai Chi Hall, Sima Yao has been living in seclusion, rarely showing his face unless necessary.The closer the date of the grand ceremony, the more obvious this trend became. In the end, even Sima Daozi rarely saw each other.

Not so with Wang Fahui.

Compared to Sima Yao, who was sluggish, Wang went to Changle Palace to pay his respects the next day, and there was even drum music in the side hall.

With the Queen Mother's permission, Wang's mother and sisters visited the palace twice, and they got permission. It doesn't matter.

Because of this unsuccessful marriage, instead of improving the status of the Wang family in the court, it plummeted.There is no suppression on the surface, but there are constant small moves behind the scenes.

The situation is getting worse and worse, Wang Yun's status as the head of the family is not guaranteed, and now he is closing the door to thank guests at home, drinking all day long.Even if there is no sign to resign, it is impossible to have much development in the future, let alone enter the power center.

There are complaints among the Wang clan.

Even more humane, he was not optimistic about this marriage at the beginning. It was Wang Yun who insisted on going his own way, insisting on being the "Head of the State", and the publicity of his relatives brought the whole family down.

Even if Wang Fahui can divorce Sima Yao, how can the new emperor not be taboo?Even if the new emperor is lenient and benevolent, those who intend to divide the power in the court will not easily expose it.

In addition to the deceased Empress Aijing, the Wang family has two layers of foreign relatives, and will not be reused by the court for at least three generations.

"Look at the old example of the previous dynasty. If the new emperor is ruthless, the whole family can save their lives, but they may become ordinary people!"

For the gentry, falling from the clouds and losing their status is not necessarily better than losing their lives.

Wang Yun was already depressed, and was complained by his tribe, so he almost fell ill.

Upon hearing the news, Wang Fahui was so angry that she gritted her teeth and told her mother to stay in hibernation for the time being, don't easily quarrel with the clansmen, and wait until she leaves Taicheng to make a fuss.

"I will write down what happened today. If I find an opportunity in the future, I will let those who have fallen into trouble taste the bitter fruit!"

"What are you talking about?" Wang's mother and sister were obviously shocked, thinking that she had been wronged too much, and they had already started talking nonsense.

"It's hard to go into details now, let's wait for another day." Wang Fahui said calmly.

"Mother, I can guess why you came here today. However, the timing is not right now, and there is no need to worry about sister's marriage. What's more, even if you search now, you may not be able to find the right person. How about After the grand ceremony, the members of the Huan clan will go to Beijing to talk about it."

"Huan family?" A gasp sounded in the room.

"Mr. Huan." Wang Fahui smoothed his sleeves, ran his fingernails across the moiré on the sleeves, lowered his voice slightly, and whispered in his mother's ear, "Mr. Zhou intends to marry Mrs. Huan. Has Grandmother heard the news?"

Madam Liu nodded.

"Zhou's surname is Wu, and there is still this opportunity. My ancestor has the same name as Liu Zhenchang. My father has always practiced moral government in the local area and is praised by the people. Even with Empress Aijing and me, the family foundation will not be cut off easily."

Referring to the old rules of the previous dynasty, Huan Rong would not attack Wang Yun's family easily, even if it was just a show.

Wang Fahui had a calm expression, comforting her mother and sisters.

"Mum, sister is not yet ready, so there is no need to rush to get married. When the new emperor ascends the throne, it is time for father and elder brother to show their ambitions. The short-sighted people in the clan don't need to worry about it. From my point of view, you and father are worried. It will never happen."

"Are you sure?" Mrs. Liu expressed doubts.

"Nine points." Wang Fahui smiled, her facial features could not be called gorgeous, let alone charming.It is reported that she looks very similar to Empress Aijing, dignified and elegant, no wonder her aunt and nephew successively entered the Xianyang Palace and became the empress of a country.

"In the final analysis, it was the Queen Mother's idea that I married into Taicheng." Wang Fahui continued, "The Queen Mother has an appointment with Princess Nankang behind the scenes, and she didn't make it clear before, but now she is still living in Changle Palace, which shows the clue."

"When the new emperor ascends the throne, his family will rise as well."

"As long as I can get the Queen Mother's pity, my life may not be bad. Maybe I can help my father and brother, and help my sister find a good husband's family."

There was one matter that Wang Fahui considered for a long time, and she had already made up her mind, but she didn't tell her mother and sisters clearly.

After divorcing Sima Yao, she didn't plan to remarry.

As long as she lives alone for a day, the queen mother's "guilt" will not be completely eliminated.Holding on to this won't help much, it will always keep the family safe.

Nothing is perfect.

No matter how much anger and grievance there is, it's fine to vent it, and you can't really cross the bottom line.If she doesn't know the seriousness and insists on going her own way, the only thing waiting for her is doom, and even her family will be troubled.

Things cannot be changed.In the current situation, she can only keep encouraging herself and walk carefully on the edge of the cliff.Do everything you can, use the rest of your life in exchange for the safety of your family, and pave the way for your father, brother and sister.

sacrifice?

indeed.

However, since she was born as a lady of the noble family and enjoyed everything given by the family, when it is time to stand up, there is absolutely no reason to back down.

Wang Fahui looks like her aunt, but her personality is completely different.Empress Aijing is certainly proud, but she is a bit weak in the end; Wang Fahui is arrogant and strong, and she will do anything to achieve her goal.

After Mrs. Liu left the palace, she told her daughters not to talk nonsense.After closing the door, he repeated the words of the eldest daughter to Wang Yun.

Wang Yun didn't say anything at the time, and sat in the study all night. At dawn the next day, he went into the cellar and smashed the wine jar, took a bath and changed his clothes, cheered himself up, and boarded the car to pay a visit to Qingxili.

What he asked to see was not Huan Rong, but Jia Bing, who had not yet held an official position in the court.

After the two met, they had a long talk behind closed doors, Wang Yun said goodbye and left, Jia Bing pondered for a moment, then got up quickly to see Huan Rong.

"Your Majesty may wish to consider the meaning of Wang's internal history." Jia Bingdao, "Although the Wang family is a foreign relative, Wang Shuren's reputation is not ordinary after all. The three sons under his knee are also talented and famous. It will be a pleasure if they can be used by Your Majesty."

Overseas Chinese surname, Wu surname.

Courtiers, relatives.

Old ministers, upstarts.

After listing the items, Huan Rong hung the pen with his wrist, drew several ink lines horizontally, drew a circle at the intersection, and nodded slowly.

"The example of the Wang family can be compared with the relatives of the previous dynasty."

After all, relatives and clan are different, and if conditions permit, they can be treated separately.As long as the gentleman is talented and capable of doing practical things, even if he is a foreign relative, he can choose to be an official to benefit one side.

Huan Rong held the military power in his hands, so he didn't worry about someone "rebelling" at all.If someone really wants to raise an army, it will be more convenient for him to make an example of others and teach those who are about to move a lesson.

"After the grand ceremony, I will issue an edict to extend the method of assessing officials in You and Yu to Jiang, Jing and Liangzhou." Huan Rong closed the silk cloth and said seriously.

"Uncle has already nodded to this method, and Inspector Yang has no objection."

"Counties and counties that implement this law should be the first to establish colleges. Fan Gong intends to run a school, which is exactly what he wanted."

With the carrot of running a school, Fanning will definitely stand on his side with a clear-cut banner.With his influence and Huan's strength, this "in-job evaluation" policy should be implemented smoothly.

This is only the first step.

In today's world, disintegrating the nine-rank Zhongzheng system is tantamount to fantasy, and if you are not careful, you will dig a hole and bury yourself.What Huan Rong has to do is to seize the opportunity, loosen the soil carefully, and without causing a reaction from the gentry, conduct an assessment of the elected officials, and try his best to eliminate mediocre people who don't do anything.

He didn't break the rules, he acted under them.

Given the family style of most of the gentry, it is presumably not happy to see the children of the clan dismissed for "incompetence".In this way, the recommended children will always have one or two skills that they can show.In addition to the annual assessment, there may not be enough time to talk about eating cold food powder.

The so-called subtle influence, the effect of the upper and lower, and the atmosphere of the governance will be one of the new.

"There is another matter," Huan Rong changed the subject and said, leaving aside the official assessment and school running, "Emissary Yang will be transferred to Guzang after the ceremony, and he will be in charge of the Western Regions trade routes with the Qin family. I intend to hand over Hanzhong to Bingzhi, How about the unknown?"

"Your Majesty trusts me, and I am very grateful. I should do my best. However, I know myself, and I may not be able to guard one side." Jia Bing put away his relaxed expression and said seriously, "If Your Majesty wants to appoint the land of Hanzhong, Kong Yu and Jingde can do it. Choose one. If not, you can use the fourth son as Mushou."

"What is Bingzhi's intention?"

"I would like to assist His Majesty to unify the Central Plains and restore the prosperity of China."

Huan Rong smiled.

It is really not easy for Jia Bing, who is always thinking about setting fires, to say these words.

"I have already understood Bingzhi's ambition." Huan Rong's voice was steady, without too much ups and downs, but his words were powerful and resounding, "In my lifetime, I will do my best to end the troubled times, restore China, and restore the strong man!"

Jia Bing nodded, got up and straightened his clothes, faced Huan Rong, and bowed down.

Huan Rong didn't move, and accepted the gift from him.

So what about the burden?

If he can realize his great wish, he will be happy!

At the same time, Sima Yao met the Queen Mother and left Changle Palace.Meeting Sima Daofu on the way, he stopped subconsciously.

When siblings meet, the previous tension is gone, only silence, endless silence.

After a long time, Sima Yao saluted first: "I have seen my sister."

Sima Daofu didn't respond, but looked him up and down, suddenly smiled, and said politely, "You're welcome, brother."

"Where is sister going?" Sima Yao forced a smile.

"I'm going to see the Queen Mother." Sima Daofu was still smiling, but the smile was extraordinarily cold.

In an instant, a sharp ice thorn pierced Sima Yao's body, causing him to take half a step back unconsciously.

"I'm going to worship Father and Auntie today." Sima Daofu stared at Sima Yao and said word by word, "When Father was dying, do you remember?"

Sima Yao's expression changed slightly, he clenched his teeth and tried to maintain his composure.

"I don't know what sister means."

"I don't understand?" Sima Daofu put away his smile, walked up to Sima Yao, and said in a low voice, "When I left Jiankang, I swore to God that I would live up to my father's love."

"Brother, I still hate you to this day, I wish I could take your life with my own hands!"

Sima Yao froze.

"Sister..."

"Don't worry, no matter how much I hate in my heart, I won't do it at this time." Sima Daofu took half a step back, his red lips curled up with a smile, and the corners of his eyes were slightly raised. The color is so bright that it cannot be described in words.

"Live a good life." Sima Daofu patted Sima Yao's shoulder lightly, "Maybe I'm in a good mood and forget about it. If I can't forget..."

Sima Daofu didn't say what happened next, but it was more frightening than telling the truth.

Sima Yao stood where he was, his face pale as paper.Turning his head stiffly, he watched Sima Daofu gradually go away, his palms already drenched in cold sweat.

Back in Hualin Garden, Sima Yao tossed and turned thinking of tomorrow's Zen position ceremony, and he still didn't feel sleepy at midnight.Feeling really irritable, he simply got up and went to bed, grabbed the incense burner placed in front of the bed, and smashed it out.

As soon as the sound came out, eunuchs came to check immediately.

Sima Yao didn't have the strength to smash any more, so he sat slumped on the ground for a long time, ignoring the inquiries from the eunuchs outside the door, got up and took out the bamboo slips, knives and pens.He changed his mind, instead of going to Linhai, he stayed in Jiankang!

Even if you want to live under the eyes of the new emperor, and you are doomed to live a miserable life, it is better than being killed by someone sent by Sima Daofu.

The throne is gone, so keep your head.

Sima Yao smiled wryly, deliberated for a moment, and made the first stroke.

As everyone knows, this request fulfilled him, but it cheated the entire Sima clan.

As the only person with a king after the change of dynasty, he took the initiative to ask to stay in Jiankang, determined not to leave the capital, how could the remaining princes and kings continue to go out?In order to eliminate the suspicion of the new emperor, he must follow the above table to express his intention to move to Jiankang.

For Huan Rong, it was a surprise that he could get things done without any brainstorming.

As the source, Sima Daofu never thought that a few words would bring about such an effect.In fact, the hatred in her words is true, but it is impossible to actually do it.

The most important point, Huan Rong may not be happy to see Sima Yao's sudden death.Sima Daofu took shelter of the Huan family, so it was naturally impossible to act against his orders.

However, Sima Yao was obviously frightened and couldn't turn his head around. No matter who told him that "Sima Daofu is just talking, he won't take actual actions", he would not believe it, but would suspect that he was trying to harm him. he.

So, after being emperor for three years, Sima Yao did not leave any good reputation. Instead, after he abdicated, he was recorded as "Ming Dayi" by the historian, which is really ironic.

At dawn, Zou Please was finally written.

Sima Yao didn't sleep all night, there were two dark circles under his eyes, but he was a little excited.

Hearing footsteps outside the door, and seeing the dark clothes and hair crowns held up by the eunuchs and maidservants, Sima Yao put down his knife and pen, and let the eunuchs change his clothes and comb his hair.

"Your Majesty, please go to the Tai Chi Hall first, and then go to the Zen Yitai."

Sima Yao waved the eunuch away, straightened his belt himself, put the bamboo slips into his arms, and said, "Lead the way."

"promise!"

Outside Taicheng, a hundred officials headed by Xi Min and Xie An went to Qingxili to welcome the new emperor into the Taiji Hall.

Such a scene.It is vaguely similar to Sima Yu when he ascended the throne.

The difference is that the leader changed from Huan Da Sima to Xi Chengxiang. Among the ministers who came to welcome, although the overseas Chinese surname dominated, the Wu surname had gradually risen.

Inside and outside Qingxi, soldiers stood on both sides of the road.

Wang Husheng and Mao An led a team of palace guards, guarding around Tianzi Daren.

People poured out of their homes one after another, crowded on the side of the road, shoulder to shoulder, sweating profusely.The moment Huan Rong appeared, there was a moment of silence, and then there was a burst of cheers, which seemed to shake the sky.

Seeing this scene, the civil and military officials didn't show it on their faces, and they had their own thoughts in their hearts.

Surrounded by countless gazes, Huan Rong remained calm and composed, without any tension.After boarding the big pedestal, he stood straight in front of the railing of the carriage, raised his arms horizontally, and bowed deeply.

In an instant, all the noise disappeared.

Not only the people on the side of the road, but also the civil and military personnel welcoming the new emperor were all stunned on the spot.

"Let's make an oath today, save one day, and do everything possible to drive away the bandits, restore China, and revive the Han Dynasty!"

"In the past, the iron cavalry of the Qin Dynasty ruled the world, and the power of the Han army wiped out the Xiongnu. The officials of the Han can be said to be, and those who offend our strong Han will be punished even if they are far away! Now, if we inherit the ambitions of our ancestors, we will end a century of troubled times and restore stability to the people of the world!"

"I swear today, and the heavens will bear witness!"

The eight characters fell to the ground with a clang.

There was a roar of voices, the old man had tears in his eyes, his face was red when he was young, and the women and girls threw silk handkerchiefs and paved the way with flowers.

Huan Rong straightened up, standing upright like a pine, standing on the shaft of the chariot.

Dian Kui and Xu Chao looked at each other, and instead of Mao Husheng and Mao Anzhi controlled the reins, driving the big wheel forward.

The officials walked behind the chariot, with Xi Yin at the head, Xie An and Wang Biaozhi half a step behind.

The wheels creaked over willow branches and flowers.

Looking at Huan Rong's back, Xi Yin once again sighed that Huan Yuanzi has successors.Now that all the people are returning to their hearts, the fate of the Sima family is replaced by the Huan family, and I am afraid it is also the will of heaven.
