I'm not Murong Chong

It has been more than half a month since Yao Song, the prime minister and assistant minister of Xiyan, suddenly contracted a serious illness and took leave of absence from court.As soon as he put down the burden, Ren Zhen was too busy to do his own thing, and he didn't dare to complain.Now he was writing at his desk with dark circles, when he heard the hasty report from the chief servant, he didn't dare to delay, and rushed to Jinhua Palace, his bedroom.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Yao Song with a white face, and he was really directing a few small yellow doors to pack the boxes. He hurried up to meet him, wrapped his sable fur around his body, and said with a smile: "Although winter has just entered, the sky is already here. It's so cold, how can you work so hard in such thin clothes."

Yao Song backed away respectfully, and bowed to salute: "I know that I am seriously ill, and I dare not live in the palace anymore, so as not to overwhelm Your Majesty, I will naturally move out of the palace and return to my residence."

"What serious illness! Can this be confused?" Ren Zhen immediately lowered his face and drank, Yao Song immediately admitted his mistake, and said in a low voice: "I'm guilty of death, please the emperor also exile me to a place where the grass grows and the birds fly, maybe this depression The disease will be healed without medicine.”

Ren Zhen coughed several times helplessly, the chief servant knew the situation and hurriedly left. In an instant, the bedroom was empty.

Since there were no outsiders, Ren Zhen didn't need to give up his face and dignity anymore. He stepped forward and hugged him to the couch, and said in a pleading voice: "Zijun, ten days of cold war should be enough? Let alone Qi Gui Qi, be careful not to really hurt yourself, you are sick and weak, and you can't take care of it enough, how can you survive such a toss? You must never leave the palace."

Yao Song poked his face out of the warm and thick sable fur, and smiled coldly: "How can I be as good as the emperor? Chilechuan, Bingzhou Daidi, has an area almost equal to the entire Guanzhong, so you are willing to hand over to others like this! You I can understand the temporary ceding of Luoyang Xuchang to Murongchui, because sooner or later it will be taken back there, but it is just forced by the situation-but the large piece of land in Chilechuan is full of undisciplined Hu people. Gui, I'm afraid I'll never get it back! Domination of the world is nothing but a dream!"

"I know, I know." Ren Zhen coaxed in a good voice, "Because Tuobagui's power has completely infiltrated Chilechuan, all the leaders of the ministries serve him as the master, and they only treat me, Dayan, as the suzerain in name. If it is true as you said, apart from Tuobagui, how can we deal with the aftermath? There will be wars all over the northern border, and our army will be exhausted to deal with them. One will ebb and flow, and the other will ebb and flow. Isn’t this an opportunity for Murongchui to take advantage of? Anyway, we won Chilechuan If I can’t really control it, how about using this as a bait to keep Tuoba Gui from rebelling, and at the same time stop his wait-and-see attitude of exchanging voices with Hou Yan, supporting soldiers and raising bandits, and from now on I can only focus on attacking Zhongshan for me—wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone?”

Ren Zhen has a more long-term strategic vision. He knows that the number one enemy in the Central Plains is Murong Chui. If Houyan is not destroyed, it will be difficult to unify Jiangbei, let alone send troops to the south to unify the world. Bagui's ambiguous attitude - no matter how unwilling he is, Tuobagui is already like Han Xin when Chu and Han were fighting each other. But also to prevent self-destruction eight thousand.At that time, Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, had the kindness to temporarily grant the general Han Xin the king of Qi, in exchange for his sworn enemy Xiang Yu's ambushes on all sides, and he could accomplish great things at all costs!

How could Yao Song not know that Ren Zhen's move actually blocked Tuobagui's escape route, but when he thought that he had worked so hard to think about it, it would actually make it possible for Tuobagui to go further, so naturally he was dying of resentment and gouged out with resentment. Ren Zhen took a look and said angrily: "Since ancient times, those who claim to be kings and become hegemons have never cut grass and roots and never been soft-hearted. Don't kill and rebel against Tuobagui. Don't you really have any sympathy and affection? Get rid of him, let me see who can hold back Tuobagui's wolfish ambition for you!"

Ren Zhen smiled and said, "Aren't you my empress Lu?" Seeing that the medicinal soup brought early in the morning was almost cold and still hadn't touched a mouthful, he hurriedly brought it to feed him himself, Yao Song blushed and said furiously: "I don't drink medicine!"

Ren Zhen hugged him forcefully, keeping him from twisting and moving, and comforted him: "Zi Jun, I am really reluctant to kill Tuoba Gui. He was selected by me personally, and he is a general who will not be born in a hundred years. But he is an outsider after all, the ruler and his subjects, I can clearly distinguish the priorities of interests, are you confused?" After a pause, he lowered his voice and said: "Just like you and Shu Ming, No matter how hostile they were before, don’t they go hand in hand now, like a family? He came back from this adventure and escaped death, did he ever blame you?”

Yao Song was stunned for a moment, his heart felt guilty, but he pretended to be confused and said: "When did I become as close as a family with him?"

When Cao Cao arrived, Murong Yong happened to push the door open and entered. This time he was not wearing a martial robe or sword shoes, and the narrow golden python crimson gauze royal robe with arrow sleeves made him look more and more heroic.When he saw the two hugging each other, he stepped forward as usual, and said to Ren Zhen: "Tuoba Gui's troops have indeed left Guanzhong, and they are heading to Bingzhou in the north." Then he turned his head and said to Yao Song: " It should be enough for you to hide from the laziness for the past ten days in a fit of anger."

Yao Song angrily forgot the taboo for a moment, stood up, stared at him and said: "But you betrayed me?!"

"My family, what are you talking about selling or not. Shu Ming didn't say anything." Ren Zhen shook his head and laughed, "Before and after Tuobagui's entry into the capital, I am not stupid. How can I not notice anything? Look again. With the expressions of the two of you recently, it is not difficult to figure out the whole story of the matter by thinking about it before and after——you are really bold after all."

Although Yao Song's temperament was a bit cruel and arrogant, but he really loved Ren Zhen to the extreme, so he was naturally afraid that he would really get angry, and his face was embarrassing at the moment, although he still lowered his head and looked down and looked swollen, but I dare not say any more words.

Murong Yong stretched out his hand to take away the medicine bowl that Ren Zhen was holding, and suddenly leaned over and kissed Ren Zhen's lips - Ren Zhen has always been a provocative master in this way, after being dazed, he instinctively turned his tongue to greet him, The lips and teeth were mellow and lingering, bringing out a little secret wet sound.Yao Song was tightly sandwiched between the two of them, shocked at the sight, struggling angrily to get up, and just said: "Murong Yong, you—" Murong Yong quickly took the bag in his hand without looking back. All the soup and medicine poured into Yao Song's mouth, choking him to cough violently.With a red face, Ren Zhen hugged him into his arms again, and Mosuo put on his vest to give him comfort, and by the way, he gave Murong Yong a look at the "outrageous" Murong Yong.

"It seems that your illness is cured, so let's get down to business." Murong Yong put his hands on his chest, with a nonchalant expression, "What Ren Zhen said is also right, the only plan now is to see the situation clearly and distinguish between the enemy and us." Since Tuobagui's power cannot be eradicated for a while, let him simply use him to fight Murong Chui to the death—the struggle between the two swallows, war and peace, when will it end? Naturally, it is impossible to make enemies everywhere, Xiliang has Fu Jian, We have no danger in the rear; there is Tuoba Gui in the northern border, which can be a sharp striker; if we can unite with the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River, we can complete the encirclement of the entire territory of Houyan and attack from three directions. Why worry about not destroying the country—or That principle, 'relationships at a distance and attack at a distance', we cannot offend the Jin court for the time being."

Ren Zhen did not expect that Murong Yong was humiliated by Xie Xuan in the past, and at that time he was so angry that he wanted to kill Xie Xuan to vent his anger, but now he can calmly plan to make peace with the enemy, which shows that he has a strong heart.He nodded: "Within three to five years, we will definitely fight the final decisive battle with Murong Chui, break through Yan Zhongshan, and regain Ji and Yanzhou." The Eastern Jin Dynasty on the left side of the Anjiang River - Fu Jian's unfinished journey and unrealized dream, he came to replace him!

Hearing this, Yao Song couldn't care less for a while, poked his head out of Ren Zhen's arms, and said with a frown: "If you want to make friends with the Eastern Jin Dynasty, then you can't chase after the leak of the 'Chuan Guo Yuxi'. ?”

"There are only a handful of people who know about the jade seal, but it is not difficult to investigate." Ren Zhen said in a deep voice, "But I guess the insider who tipped off the news only passed the news to Xie Xuan, not the Sima family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Otherwise, the story of Yuxi would have already spread throughout the south of the Yangtze River——Xie Xuan must have had unspeakable difficulties, so he had to come forward and ask for it in private."

Yao Song curled his lips: "We have offended Xie Xuan badly this time by taking the bottom line. Now he is the governor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, controlling the country's soldiers and horses. How could he easily cooperate with us and agree to attack Houyan together?"

"The diplomatic relations between the two countries don't count. What's more, the internal conflicts between Xie's family and Sima'er are serious-Sima Yuanxian now uses him, but he is also afraid of him-as long as Sima Yuanxian of the current dynasty has enough The benefits are enough to induce him to form an alliance."

Yao Song shook his head violently: "You must never give the jade seal to them!"

"This is natural. Although the Eastern Jin Dynasty has been in a peaceful corner for decades, it has always regarded itself as the orthodox of China. While Wang Xie's children are busy talking about metaphysics, they still don't forget to talk about the 'Northern Expedition' and 'Foreign Land'. Once the Jade Seal of the Kingdom arrives at them In our hands, we are even more learned from unknown people, and our position is passive." Ren Zhen is used to being free and easy, and rarely cherishes anything, but for this Chuanguo Yuxi, who has a deep relationship with him in the dark and has a special purpose of confirming his affection, he really loves it. Some are reluctant to part with it.

Murong Yong smiled suddenly: "To cooperate with the Sima family, you only need to put a head on it."

Yao Song is so clever, he smiled knowingly as soon as he rolled his eyes: "Xichuan Qiaozong."

Qiao Zong came from a family and was originally a general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. A few years ago, taking advantage of the civil strife in the Eastern Jin Dynasty when Xie Xuan left the dynasty, he took advantage of the civil strife in the Eastern Jin Dynasty to separate Bashu and establish himself as the king. This has always been a serious threat to the Jin Dynasty.A mere Xichuan is naturally not enough to resist the soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Therefore, in the past few years, Qiao Zong has been moving closer to the regime of the Northern Dynasty. Secretly sent troops to assist Qiao Zong in order to achieve the goal of checking and balancing the Eastern Jin Dynasty so that he would have no time to look north.Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, they have been communicating in secret - that's why Qiao Zong was able to send troops in time to threaten to attack Jingzhou in this military turmoil, forcing Xie Xuan to retreat, thus relieving Xiyan's urgent need.

"I wanted to use Qiao to control Bashu, and then go down the river to map the south of the Yangtze River, so I have to give up." Ren Zhen sighed regretfully, "A lot of money, silk, food, and grass were wasted to support them in the past few years. Fight against the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Forget it, Qiao Zong had to rely on us because of the situation. In his heart, he still thinks that he is a descendant of the noble family of Huaxia. Xuan Ping got such a big deal for nothing." Ren Zhen's words were honestly cold, and he didn't think about the kindness of Qiao Zong who sent troops to help him. In his opinion, there is no righteous war in a troubled world. As long as the ultimate goal of peace and order is achieved, What is personal reputation?What's more, there have always been only temporary interests and disadvantages between the two countries. How can there be eternal friends and enemies?

Murong Yong nodded and said: "I understand. I will go to Hanzhong as soon as possible to sit in town, connect with Qiao Zong in Chengdu, and secretly help him attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty again. After that, I will go forward and retreat."

"Don't let the Eastern Jin Dynasty be full of dangers and be tired of coping, how can it appear that it is beneficial to form an alliance with me to recover Xichuan?" Yao Song clapped his hands and laughed, "I will invite them from the land of Henan, and lure them to flank Houyan, waiting for the enemy from three sides, Ren Murong Even if the God of War is reincarnated, it will be difficult to deal with!"

However, Ren Zhen looked at Murong Yong with some reluctance: "It's just that you just returned to Beijing, so you're going to Hanzhong again?"

Murong Yong smiled wryly: "I was captured by Xie Xuan. Although there was a reason for it, it is a lifelong humiliation. I just want to pay the crime and make meritorious service as soon as possible..."

Yao Song was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately cursed Murong Yong in his heart for being so deceitful.Sure enough, Ren Zhen immediately frowned and said: "You and I are inseparable from each other, why did Shu Ming say that!"

"It's a slip of the tongue." Murong Yong lowered his head in a timely manner, and said in a deep voice, "But it's a right to work hard for the emperor..." Ren Zhen felt distressed and moved, and immediately leaned over to hold his hand, just now After saying "Uncle Ming", Murong Yong took his hand and smiled suddenly, with a hint of narrowness: "Will the emperor reward the ministers for their hard work?"

Ren Zhen, who was uncertain, immediately kowtowed in confusion, wishing he could stick up a tail behind him and wag it from side to side.Yao Song, who was watching from the sidelines, almost got angry—especially that Murong Yonglin didn't forget to give him an apologetic look.He suddenly had black lines on his face: he thought that Murong Yong's gloomy and grudge-loving temperament could only suffer from being dumb in secret, but who knows that if he really wants to play tricks, he won't lose to him at all!

Murong Yong waited for Ren Zhen to get up and leave for a while, then turned to Yao Song, and said in a low voice seriously: "If you see a good deal, then accept it, procrastination is useless."

Yao Song was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that Murong Yong was reminding him that although Ren Zhen guessed what the two of them did secretly after Tuoba Gui entered Beijing, he didn't know that the "Henan Change" caused him to fall into an ambush and become an opponent. It also originated from Yao Song's handwriting, in order to force against Tuoba Gui.No matter how much Ren Zhen loved and trusted others, this matter had touched his bottom line. If he knew about it, it would be difficult for him to be kind. Naturally, it would be better to expose it as soon as possible.

Yao Song bit his lip silently, didn't speak, didn't make a sound, but obviously listened.

In the north of Jiankang City, the capital of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there is a mountain called "Qingliang". The natural city was called "Stone City" at that time.

The city began to be built when Sun Quan, the great emperor of the Eastern Wu Dynasty, established his capital in Moling. It is also the most important naval base in the south of the Yangtze River.The terrain of Stone City is precipitous, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with the Huai River and the river in between. It has been known as "Stone City and Huju" since ancient times.After the Jin dynasty moved to the south and established the capital Jiankang, the threat of Hu Qi iron hooves to the north of the Yangtze River never faded away. Therefore, after Xie Xuan succeeded as the military governor, he focused on repairing many fortifications in Stone City, and dispatched elite soldiers from Beifu to garrison for many years. Stone warehouses and stone warehouses were added in the city to store a large amount of military food and weapons, which can be said to be as solid as gold.

However, Stone City, which used to be terrified in the past, is full of voices talking about poetry and songs today. It is rare to have a sense of aristocratic family, but it turns out that Xie Xuan, the governor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, hosted a banquet here for Zhongshu, who returned to Jiankang after leaving the town of Kuaiji. Ling and Danyang Yin Wang Gong washed the dust.Originally, it was just a small banquet for friends, but Xie Xuanhe and others also, in the Wuyi Lane in Jiankang City, the literati and scholars of Wang Xie's children, who were the only ones looking forward to him, came here after hearing the news. Gathering is like a gathering of crowns and covers, and Hong Confucianism communicates.

There is a small octagonal pavilion on the top of Qingliang Mountain, and there is a couplet written on it: "A bomb of flowing water and a bomb of moon, half of the river wind and half of the cloud" (Note 1), the ink is smooth, floating like floating clouds, quite like Wang Youjun's regular script style, it is Xie Lang handwriting.

As an honored guest, Wang Gong just arrived after the banquet, and while walking up the stairs slowly, he only bowed his hands to Xie Xuanyao, who was in the middle: "My dear brother, forgive me for being late!"

Xie Xuan commanded the three armies, lived in the first rank, and restrained the two states of Jing and Yang. Even Emperor An would be polite when summoned. How could he be so entrusted.Xie Xuan, however, seemed to take the initiative to stand up indifferently, and greeted him with a salute. While ordering someone to prepare a seat, he said with a smile: "Brother Xiao is going on a tour for the country, and has worked hard all the way. Since we are here to clean up the dust for you, why not wait a while?" ?”

As one of the few generals who was able to attend, Liu Yu laughed in his heart——Wang Gong nominally led Danyang Yin, patrolled the heavens, and left the town of Kuaiji, but in fact he was kicked out of the capital because of his feud with Sima Yuanxian's confidant Wang Guobao In Jiankang, Xie Xuan's secret activities led the court to recall him. At this time, he held a banquet in the military center Stone City for his "glorious return" with ulterior motives. After all, Wang Gong is the "gentry faction" led by Xie Xuan. Qingliu's representative in court, it's best to reconsider before moving him.It's just that Xie Xuan's painstaking efforts, knocking mountains and shaking tigers, seem a little worthless in Liu Yu's view-except for his noble background, what is there to be proud of this stubborn old man who refuses to adapt?

The disciples of Wang Xie at the banquet also stood up and saluted one after another, Wang Gong answered them one by one, and then ordered the servant to unfold a six-foot-square exquisite bamboo mat, lay it on his seat, and sat down cross-legged, smiling at each other. Xie Xuandao: "Brother Yu chooses the seats, he is not used to other things, please forgive me, my virtuous brother."

Xie Xuan smiled nonchalantly, and asked Yang Ping to remove the straw mat he had prepared—he and Wang Gong had known each other for many years, and they knew each other's personalities well, so they would not be unhappy because of trivial matters. Being able to raise one's status and reputation will be more beneficial to their descendants of Wang Xie, the nobles and nobles in general.However, Liu Laozhi, Zhu Lingshi, Liu Yu and other martial arts from the humble family who were promoted by Xie Xuan at the same table were all secretly dissatisfied with him, which will not be mentioned later.

Just as the banquet was full of wine and wine, poems and wine were sung in harmony, and there was a harmonious and romantic atmosphere, suddenly a young boy's voice interrupted the good atmosphere with a smile: "Everyone is so elegant and elegant, and you are enjoying the scenery in spring, why did you forget to tell me about this?" A king?"

Xie Xuan and Wang Gong glanced at each other, then hurriedly got up on their knees, and went down the steps—isn't that Mr. Pianpian who came uninvited is Sima Yuanxian, the son of Xiang Wang who is now in power?So everyone at the banquet got up together and kowtowed to Sima Yuanxian: "See Your Highness."

"Everyone, please stand up. You are not in the court today, so don't be cautious." Sima Yuan led Wang Guobao into the crowd without touching the ground, stood in front of Wang Xie and his head, smiled slightly and said, "Little Wang Xingzhi So, the sudden interruption, you two won't be unwelcome, right?" He is wearing a crane cloak today, long robe with wide sleeves, and a high crown belt, looking fluttering like an exiled immortal, and his face is more and more like a crown jade, charming and charming, Compared with anyone in the pavilion at this time, he looked more like a noble family who was chic and talkative, and he didn't see the courage to kill, make decisions, and act resolutely at all.

Xie Xuan smiled faintly, cupped his fists and said, "Your Highness is serious. Today is just a gathering of friends, why bother?"

Sima Yuanxian picked up the crane cloak, threw it to Wang Guobao, and walked towards the main seat on his own, lifted his robe and sat down, and then looked at Xie Xuan with a half-smile: "Really? In the past, Xiao Wang invited me many times, thank you." The governor declined politely, so Xiao Wang had no choice but to visit in person with the cheek."

There was a sudden silence during the meeting, and everyone dared not speak up, even a needle falling on the ground could be clearly heard.Xie Xuan's complexion remained unchanged, and he replied in a respectful voice: "The chaos in Xichuan Qiaozong has not yet calmed down, and the imperial court must always beware of its disturbance from the east. The final general has a heavy responsibility, so he has to stay in Jingkou and Shitou City to train and supervise the army. I didn't dare to stop, so I have no time to go back to Beijing to pay my respects to the prince, and I hope to forgive my sin."

Sima Yuan's expression froze, and he squinted his eyes slightly - only this "Xie Jiabaoshu" dared to speak to him like this among the civil and military men of the dynasty!However, she is so pleasant and polite that no one can find fault with her.

Wang Guobao observed his words, and knew that his master did not want to make enemies with Xie Xuan, and now he was a little bit unable to step down, so he pointed to the exquisitely woven bamboo mat near the left and interjected: "This six-foot mat is so handmade, you can tell it's extraordinary at a glance. I don't know which adult's favorite item?"

Wang Gong glanced at him arrogantly, and replied lightly: "I got this from Kuaiji. People in the world often praise Secretary Cheng as 'there are hundreds of prostitutes and concubines in the back room, and the world is full of treasures'. This mere scum is rare. Can enter the eyes of adults."

Wang Guobao was just trying to change the subject, but unexpectedly he bumped into Wang Gong's thorn in his head, and was ridiculed a lot. When he was embarrassed, Sima Yuanxian suddenly said: "Since the national treasure is rare, why don't you, Mr. Wang?" Adult beauty?"

Wang Gong was taken aback for a moment—a six-foot bamboo mat is certainly not worth talking about, but he has always been upright and unyielding, and it is well known that Wang Guobao had a bad relationship with him. If he gave this thing to Wang Guobao, how much talk would he leave behind?However, he can satirize Wang Guobao, the younger generation of his family, but he dare not be rude to Sima Yuanxian, let alone refuse?Knowing that Sima Yuanxian was deliberately supporting Wang Guobao and sweeping his face, he didn't dare to disobey, so he had to put on a cold face and ordered his servants to roll up the six-foot mat and send it to Wang Guobao, while he ignored it and looked at the same place. Sitting cross-legged—it was evident that he was full of resentment and resisted dissatisfaction.

Sima Yuan frowned slightly, and turned to Wang Gong with a deep tone: "The Zhongshu ordered the adults to return it in Kuaiji, so there should be more of these things, so don't begrudge them—there are still a few infamous treasures in the little prince's mansion." Bamboo mat, send it to your lord's mansion today as an exchange, okay?"

His tone was easy-going, but his meaning was heavy. Wang Gong was taken aback for a moment, and he didn't know how to answer. Xie Xuanman said in a loud voice: "Your Highness doesn't know something. Uncle Xiao is upright and honest. He has no personal possessions. Now he is giving you a mat, so there is no room left." , so he sat on the recommendation, not intentionally. (Note 2)" Seeing Xie Xuan's rescue, Wang Gong hurriedly followed the promise, and Sima Yuanxian accepted the unexpected look, and said with a smile: "This thing, Xiao Wang, originally called it There are many Qings, so I beg for someone's ear, now it seems that it is Xiao Wang's fault."

Wang Gong hurriedly apologized and thanked him endlessly, and everyone continued the banquet, but with Sima Yuanxian, a big Buddha, everyone was silent, so how dare they make a noise?Only Sima Yuanxian is very comfortable drinking and eating, which can be called happy.After drinking for three rounds, he got up and said: "It's getting dark, I'm afraid the emperor will call again at night, Xiao Wang will go first." Everyone hurriedly stood up to see them off, but Sima Yuanxian waved his hand and ordered them to stop: "Just the governor Only one person can accompany you."

Xie Xuan didn't want to accompany him all the way, but now his name was called, so he had no choice but to send him down the mountain himself.

The stone city was built around the mountains, the terrain was steep, and there was only one path to go up and down. Sima Yuanxian and Xie Xuan stood shoulder to shoulder, leaving Wang Guobao and other followers behind.Sima Yuanxian was walking while looking down at the rolling Yangtze River at the foot of the mountain. Xie Xuangang wanted to remind him to be careful when he stepped, but he saw Sima Yuanxian stepping on the ground and staggering. He quickly reached out to support him, and said in a low voice Said: "Your Highness, be careful."

Sima Yuanxian didn't get up immediately, but grabbed his elbow and said with a light smile, "Xie Lang really treats me the same as before."

Xie Xuan let go and backed away, and said plainly: "The final general doesn't know what His Highness means."

Sima Yuanxian didn't like him, and grabbed his sleeve with his backhand: "The old father sent me to Xie's house to let you teach me writing and martial arts. For three to five years, I slept, eaten and lived together with you, just like a master and apprentice. This friendship, Xie Lang forgot?"

Under the slanting sun, Xie Xuan was still as warm and moist as jade, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes: "The last general has little knowledge, and he can't teach a hero like His Highness who can cover the sky with one hand."

Sima Yuanxian smiled instead of anger, and immediately twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "The governor blames me for ignoring my father and controlling the government? I don't care what others think of me, but you are an ordinary man, can't you see that the current Eastern Jin Dynasty is full of powerful people, like a loose sand ; What the country needs is not a hundred schools of thought contending, but a generation of powerful officials!? The father and king are old, indulged in wine and sex, and are no longer suitable for governing the government, and I, Sima Yuanxian, are more than enough to replace them!"

Xie Xuan turned his head away coldly, and said in his mouth: "Your Highness, don't forget that the emperor will be eighteen last year, and he can already govern himself."

Hearing Xie Xuan mention the "idiot" Emperor An who couldn't take care of himself, Sima Yuanxian pursed his lips in a rather interesting smile, and said: "I almost forgot that Xie Lang is now an official worshiping Taifu, equal to the emperor's teacher, no wonder he is so protective The emperor's disciples—if that's the case, why do they treat each other more favorably than others and refuse to recognize me? I'm also a descendant of the Sima family's royal family, what's the difference between me and the emperor?!"

Xie Xuan turned his head abruptly when he heard the words, shot his eyes straight at him like a torch, and shouted decisively: "My lord, be careful what you say—this is tantamount to conspiracy!"

Note 1: "A bomb of flowing water and a bomb of the moon, half into the river and half into the cloud" is not a Southern Dynasty character, which is borrowed here.

Note 2: Wang Gong's "body without long things" comes from "Shishuoxinyu". It was originally Wang Chen (also a member of the Wang clan in Taiyuan) asking Wang Gong for a bamboo mat. This is changed to Wang Guobao because of the plot. .
