King Lingyu

Sima Lingyu and the eldest princess returned to the Prince Consort's Mansion, feeling good. She guessed that the emperor would definitely call her into the palace in a short time.This is the biggest achievement for her coming to Beijing. She did not expect the current emperor to be like this. Perhaps it is because she was strictly disciplined by the empress dowager since she was a child, so that even though she is an adult, she is so innocent. affairs of the world.

Sima Lingyu immediately wrote a letter to Prince Dun and reported the situation to Ama in code words.Prince Dun was also surprised. He told Sima Lingyu that if the emperor used this chess piece well, he would get twice the result with half the effort, but if people saw his flaws, not only would his success fall by the wayside, but with the empress dowager's cruelty, his life might be in danger. So be careful!

Sima Lingyu was naturally aware of the powerful relationship involved, and it was not easy to do things like sowing dissension quietly.The emperor's point is enough, otherwise, too many words will lead to failure.On the other hand, it seems that you have to talk to the third sister to let Zhang Liao focus on the court, so that the emperor thinks that he also has someone who can be used.

Sima Lingyu and the eldest princess had been married for some time, and the days seemed to be going smoothly. Although Wanqing and the eldest princess were at odds, they didn't make much noise.The eldest princess tends flowers and weeds in the mansion every day, and only went out of the mansion once. On the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, she went to the "Qianyun Temple" in the capital to worship incense and worship Buddha.Sima Lingyu also asked people to keep an eye on Wanqing. According to the report, the palace had indeed sent someone secretly, but Wanqing didn't say anything.On the other hand, Steward Qi also kept himself safe.It seems that as long as you don't move, everyone will live in peace.

One day, Sima Lingyu was in his room when the door was suddenly opened and Junli came in, "Young master, you called your subordinates down urgently, what happened?"

Originally, Sima Lingyu was very surprised when he saw Junli barge into his room in broad daylight, and what he said made him even more confused.

"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to keep watch over Sister Yun?"

Hearing this, Junli's eyes widened in surprise, "Young Master didn't call me here, did you say something urgent?" As he spoke, Junli took out a note from his waist, which was clearly in Sima Lingyu's handwriting— —"Seeing words is like a person, come to the forehead to see me immediately, hurry up!"

When Sima Lingyu saw the note, she was puzzled. Could it be that Ama heard some news and found Sister Yun?No one knows her own handwriting except Ama Erniang.And the handwriting on the note is imitated very much.

"Where's Sister Yun?" Sima Lingyu was anxious.

"After receiving the letter from Fei Ge, my subordinates didn't dare to stay for a while, thinking something happened to the young master, so they rushed over immediately. Fifth Miss should be fine under the care of Lan Er."

Sima Lingyu thought to himself, it's over, I'm afraid I've fallen into a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain. "Go back quickly to see if Sister Yun is safe, and report back quickly. Remember, if I call you in the future, I will use codes or ask Ah Yue to pass, and I will not use flying pigeons to send letters."

Junli was a little annoyed, the young master didn't finish what he had told him, and was tricked by someone, if he hadn't been careful just now, his actions during the day would have exposed the young master and aroused suspicion.

Sima Lingyu also thought of this step, "Did anyone see you when you came in?"

"No, my subordinates are careful, look around and no one came in."

At this moment, Steward Qi suddenly shouted outside the door, "My lord, there are people from the palace, please accept the order."

"Understood, I will come after changing clothes." Sima Lingyu also replied loudly through the door.How can Junli get out now, stay until night before leaving, if Sister Yun is really in danger, wouldn't it be a big mistake.

Suddenly Sima Lingyu remembered that there was a dark room under the bed in his room connected to the outside of the mansion. Although he hadn't entered it yet, he had no better way at the moment.

Sima Lingyu raised her hand to beckon Junli to enter the inner room, she lifted the bedding on the bed, and moved the footboard, the bed board opened. "Go quickly from the dark room here, this secret passage leads to the Buddhist hall outside the mansion."

Junli didn't delay for a moment, with a light leap, he jumped between the two bed boards and walked away.

Sima Lingyu quickly restored the bed to its original state and left the room.

The father-in-law in the palace had been waiting for a while in the lobby of the main hall. When he saw Sima Lingyu, he was very polite and knelt down first to salute, "I have seen Mr. Foreboss."

When Sima Lingyu saw it, he was the same one who went to the prime minister's mansion to announce the decree, "Elder-in-law, please get up!"

The father-in-law who came here to announce the decree was serving in front of the emperor, "My lord, today the servant is here to follow the emperor's orders to announce you into the palace." Sure enough, it was exactly as Sima Lingyu expected.

"Excuse me, father-in-law, I don't know why the emperor called me?" Sima Lingyu wanted to find out the situation.

"Hey, I don't know the thoughts of Lord Long Live. However, the emperor has worked very hard these days, reading books day and night. I don't know what books to read."

After Sima Lingyu followed his father-in-law into the palace, he was taken directly to the Qianzheng Palace.After Sima Lingyu performed the royal and minister ceremony, the emperor retired the servants, and only Sima Lingyu was in the hall with him.

"I haven't seen the emperor for a few days, I feel that the emperor has lost weight, the emperor must take care of the dragon body!" Sima Lingyu saw that the emperor's eyes were black, it seemed that he had put in a lot of effort.

"I've been studying history books and art of war these few days. Although I'm tired, I've also benefited a lot." The emperor seemed very happy to see Sima Lingyu, and was anxious to share with her what he had learned in the past few days. "Sure enough, there are a lot of things about taking the emperor to make the princes. I seldom read history books before. I followed the big scholars and mostly read the Four Books and Five Classics, Hanshu Poetry and Fu, and the most is '24 filial piety'. These days I sent someone secretly to 'Wenyuan Pavilion' went to get these books." The emperor said and handed the books to Sima Lingyu to read.

Sima Lingyu took it and took a look,——as expected, they were all history books.

"I saw that King Qin Zhao's experience is very similar to mine, and Huang Erniang's current behavior seems to be that of the Queen Mother. I must not let this kind of thing happen to me. body."

"Then what is the emperor's plan?" Sima Lingyu was very satisfied that he had aroused the emperor's dissatisfaction with the empress dowager.

"If I want to find a way to cultivate my own strength in the court, you are willing to help me. In the future, I will govern myself, and I will definitely not treat you badly."

"My younger brother is willing to share the worries of the emperor, but my younger brother is ignorant and only loves romance. I fear that I will disappoint the trust of my elder brother." Sima Lingyu declined, how could she be such an early bird. "Furthermore, I don't have a single soldier in my hands, so why should I share the worries of my brother?"

"The only people who hold the military power in the court today are the two princes Su Yi and Zhang Liao from the Ministry of War. A few days ago, the empress promoted Zhang Liao from servant to minister."

"Why did the Empress Dowager do this?" Although Sima Lingyu asked this in his mouth, he knew in his heart that the Empress Dowager saw that the power of the two princes, Su Yi, was getting stronger day by day, and both of them had male heirs. Therefore, Zhang Liao, who is not a member of the imperial family, was promoted to divide the military power with the two princes.

"Zhang Liao has been the emperor's mother's confidant for many years, that's why he has been promoted step by step. I guess that the two princes must be unhappy when Zhang Liao is promoted. If we can use this emotion and make it work for me, I will surely fulfill my wish to govern personally. .”

Sima Lingyu heard what the emperor said, and wanted to make these two people turn their backs and serve the emperor. How easy is it?The emperor thought it was too simple.

"This plan is very good, but what does the emperor want the younger brother to do?"
