Sima Shan followed him around the room, quite puzzled: "This has something to do with Lu Zixiu?"

Sima Rong was silent for a moment, then turned to look at him: "You know, when I woke up, I was not in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but in the Lu Taishou's Mansion in Wu County. The original owner of this body was Lu Zixiu's attendant named Yuan Sheng, and I He just entered Beijing recently, and was sent to the prime minister's residence by Lu Wen."

Sima Shan was shocked: "So, you exchanged souls with this Yuansheng?"

"Most likely."

"You..." Sima Shan looked at him from head to toe, frowned and shook his head, even more puzzled, "Why do you look so alike?"

"I don't know either." Sima Rong sighed softly, and said, "But these are not important right now, I have other urgent matters, and I need my brother's help."

"Tell me." Seeing his serious expression, Sima Shan unconsciously sat up straight.

"Since father has decided to make you king, he will probably order you to leave the capital in a few days. At that time, he must be taken away from the palace and go to Guiyang County with you."

Sima Shan was taken aback: "Take him away from the palace?"

Sima Rong nodded, his eyes darkened, seeing him staring straight at him, he hurriedly looked away to hide his hatred, and smiled softly: "The prince is young and vigorous, so there is nothing to be afraid of, but Empress Yu always regards me as a thorn in my side. , without your support, can Yuan Sheng handle it?"

"Hmm..." Sima Shan shook his head, "Maybe not, he looks like a doormat..."

Sima Rong: "..."

Sima Shan glanced at him, frowned again and looked up and down: "Are you really my second brother?"

"Huh?" Sima Rong looked down at himself, "What's not like it?"

"Why do you live a new life, and you seem to be a different person? That Yuansheng is not related to you, but you care so much about his life and death. This is not like you."

Sima Rong let out a long sigh: "Ah... I'll exchange my broken body with him, and I have to make some compensation."

The expression on Sima Shan's face seemed to be listening to the scriptures. After a long while, he got up and walked around him, rubbed his chin and muttered: "But I didn't take the Huangquan Road, I went directly to the Heavenly Court, met the Bodhisattva, and was enlightened by him. ?”

Sima Rong couldn't laugh or cry: "If he dies, there will be no Sima Rong in this world. How do you tell me to return to the palace in the future?"

Sima Shan's hand rubbing his chin stopped, his thoughts changed, his face turned pale with shock, and he stared straight at him.

Sima Rong smiled slightly: "What? Can't I go back to the palace?"

Sima Shan was shocked for a moment, then beamed with joy, he was so excited that he punched his palm, paced back and forth and nodded repeatedly, but soon withdrew his smile again: "In this way, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep Yuan Sheng, if you don't silence him , will become a hidden danger in the future.”

Seeing his words, Sima Rong didn't change his face, remembering his mellowness when he was young, he couldn't help sighing: "I understand what it means to be close to ink."

"..." Sima Shan's face froze, and he hesitated, "I didn't want to do that at first, and it's really hard to do anything with that face, but after all, this matter is of great importance. If you want to kill him, I will kill him as soon as he enters the fief."

Sima Rong laughed at himself, raised his hand and pressed on his shoulder: "Thank you, brother, but... this body is not my own after all." He pointed to his chest, "If one day I can't be tolerated, Where should I, a lonely ghost, go?"

Sima Shan was terrified when he heard that: "In that case, I should go back immediately and enshrine him properly."

Sima Rong couldn't help laughing. Seeing his serious face, he couldn't help but appreciate that he was always thinking of himself, and asked, "Is there any difficulty in taking it out?"

Sima Shan patted his chest: "It's easy. No one cares about you in the palace anyway. Even the queen mother only thought of you when she heard that you were seriously ill. I just need to say that I found a treasure land of Tangchi with miraculous medicinal effects. I plan to take you there for medical treatment, Father will definitely nod."

"When you get there, remember to take him to meet someone."

"who?"

Just as Sima Rong was about to speak, he suddenly heard a tapping sound from one side of the wall, he quickly pursed his lips, not surprised.

For indoor private conversations, it is most taboo to have ears on the partition wall. Sima Shan has already arranged confidantes in the private rooms on both sides. Hearing the sound of knocking at this time, he knew that someone was about to pass by, so he went to the door to listen, and then went to the crack of the door to go out. After looking at it, he finally walked back with disgust on his face, and said in a low voice, "It's really bad luck to meet the prince!"

Sima Rong hurriedly picked up the clothes that he brought out as a cover: "This place is not suitable for talking anymore. I've been away for too long, so I should go back."

"Huh?" Sima Shan held him back, "You haven't said who you're going to see..."

"I'm afraid I won't be able to make it clear in a while. It's not urgent." Sima Rong patted him on the shoulder, turned around and walked to the door, waited for a while, making sure that no one opened the door outside, and walked out calmly.

As soon as he went down the stairs, he looked up and saw several young men walking in from the door. They were all familiar faces who had participated in the Xinting Wenhui, and the first one was even more familiar.

It was nothing to meet him, but Wang Shuzhi should be dealing with official business at this time, and it was suspicious to appear here alone. Sima Rong was startled, and immediately turned and went upstairs.

Just at this moment, Lu Zixiu raised his head and saw his unclear side profile. He was stunned for a moment, and then saw his back was very familiar. He was surprised, and hurriedly confessed to the other people, and then hurriedly chased him. Come over and shout: "Yuansheng!"

Sima Rong's scalp tightened, and he walked faster. Hearing the sound of footsteps coming from the bottom of the stairs, he secretly groaned in his heart: Don't all the famous people like to wear wooden clogs?You, Lu Zixiu, are handsome, why did you change into shoes on a whim today!Going so fast!

Sima Rongyuan wanted to go to the corner of the corridor to avoid his sight, but the corridor was too long, making his pursuit all the more suspicious, so he had no choice but to go to Sima Shan's and push the door in, and quickly closed the door with his backhand.

But Lu Zixiu had just gone upstairs at this time, and when he raised his eyes, there was no one there, so he couldn't help being a little dazed, not knowing whether he had lost his sight or was hallucinating.

Sima Shan stared at the person who had gone and returned, dumbfounded: "What happened?"

"I met Lu Zixiu." Sima Rong hurriedly walked to the window, opened the window and found a low wall behind it, you can go down by following the old tree not far away, and there is a deserted alley below.

"I'm leaving from here!" Sima Rong happily said, and immediately stepped up the window.

"Be careful!" Sima Shan was startled, and hurriedly chased after him, "This is the second floor! Are you dying?!"

Sima Rong motioned behind him: "It doesn't matter."

Seeing that the low wall was not far away, Sima Shan was still in fear. Seeing him hanging on the window, he almost sprained his feet when he jumped on the low wall. After climbing down, I felt relieved, and after thinking about it, I felt funny again.

Sima Rong clapped his hands and picked up the clothes on his shoulders, looked up, and saw Sima Shan smiling at himself from the window, looking very happy, knowing that he was full of ugliness just now, he sighed helplessly and self-deprecatingly, his eyes Swipe left and right and turn away without seeing anyone else.

This alley seemed inaccessible, the dust piled up on the road, and every time he left a footprint, Sima Rong hurried on his feet. When he approached the entrance of the alley, he didn't expect someone to run in suddenly. The person who came bumped into one place heavily, and his shoulder hurt.

Sima Rong raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of the other person's face, his eyes darkened slightly.

The man didn't say a word, he didn't seem to be affected, he just paused in his footsteps, quickly turned his head away, and hurried into the alley.

Sima Rong turned around, stared at the man's strange walking posture, and looked at the footprints on the ground slightly larger than his own, then followed lightly, without attracting the other's attention, and finally exited the alley from the other side, far away. Staring at the man who entered the back door of a certain courtyard diagonally opposite, frowning slightly, stood there for a while, seeing no more movement at the door, then turned and left.

Without further delay, Sima Rong hurried back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and waited after dinner, until Wang Shuzhi came back, and hurriedly got up to greet him.

Wang Shuzhi showed a flattered smile, and joked: "Why are you so enthusiastic? I haven't seen the truth for a long time, but you read it hard?"

Sima Rong: "..."

Wang Shuzhi laughed loudly, walked into the inner room and threw the wat board: "Yan Qing..."

Sima Rong didn't react for a moment.

"Huh?" Wang Shuzhi looked up at him, "Your name is Yan Qing?"

Sima Rong was taken aback, and hurried forward: "Forgive me, Prime Minister, this subordinate is used to hearing the word Wang Chi, so I didn't notice it for a while."

Wang Shuzhi smiled lightly and opened his arms: "Well, change my clothes for me."

Although Sima Rong was exempted from slavery, the things he could do were the same as before, so he had no choice but to go forward and untie the court clothes for him. When he was halfway through, he paused and said in a low voice: "Prime Minister, there are barbarians in the capital." ?”

Wang Shuzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, and put a smile on his lips: "The imperial court captured a lot of orchids in several northern expeditions. There should be some in the capital. Why do you suddenly ask about this?"

"Then there are Hu men?"

"Jiankang City is an important place for the capital, and anyone who enters or exits the city gate will be strictly checked." Wang Shuzhi looked at him and asked, "But what happened?"

Sima Rong lowered his eyes and replied, "When I went out today, I saw a suspicious-looking young man. This man has a high nose and deep eyes. If I'm not mistaken, he should be from Qin Dynasty, and this man's walk implied a bit of tenderness. , looks very strange."

Wang Shuzhi frowned: "Where did you see it?"

"..." Sima Rong paused, "I saw him near the clothing store, and then I followed him all the way to another street. I saw him enter a back door. The subordinates didn't know where it was, so I just wrote it down in my heart." gone."

"Hmm." Wang Shuzhi pondered for a while, then took out his regular clothes and changed into them, "I'll follow you to have a look."

At this moment, Wang Ting rushed in: "Prime Minister, Master Shan sent someone to deliver a message!"

Wang Shuzhi said, "What's the matter?"

"The crown prince handed the emperor a booklet, saying that the case has been clarified."

"Oh?" Wang Shuzhi raised his eyebrows, nodded, looked at Sima Rong and said with a smile, "It seems that I have to go to the palace first."
