I'm not Murong Chong

However, Sima Yuanxian is definitely not a kind person. He is self-willed and the city is fortified. He is much more difficult to deal with than Wang Guobao. In order to get closer to please him, Ren Zhen almost managed everyone around him. , but it was just a verbal promise. Ren Zhen could hold his breath without seeing the real chapter. After that, they would be nothing more than singing and dancing girls, talking about the wind and the moon. In this era, Ren Zhen has seen a lot of heroes. , but only Sima Yuanxian can be regarded as "a fellow" with him in a certain preference. Ren Zhen claims to be a master of the Kaipai in this respect, and it is difficult to arouse his interest and favor.

At this moment, the two of them were leaning side by side on a couch with three screens carved with patterns and carved with jade, listening to the musicians playing flute and flute in the water pavilion in front of the hall, and the sword dance boy who was newly acquired a few days ago was leaning on it. Beating Sima Yuanxian's leg beside his knee.At the end of the song, Sima Yuanxian narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother Ren, what do you think of this song?"

Ren Zhen clapped his hands and praised: "It sounds good! Just make it louder, it's too far away from the ground, it's like scratching your boots, how can you hear it so clearly?"

Sima Yuanxian laughed out loud when he heard the words—the sound of music and music was only clear and graceful when it came across the water, which means that the winding path leads to seclusion.This Ren Zhen, who is omnipotent like a playboy in ordinary times, is arty, and actually speaks such common sayings that make people laugh.After a while, he suddenly stopped smiling, frowned and looked at the smiling Ren Zhen: "Brother Ren, what do you mean?"

Ren Zhenxin pointed to the layers of silk gauze curtains on the hall: "I am a rough man who doesn't understand the truth here. But in Guanzhong, I have heard Hu people perform music, and they often open and close, which are deafening and reach people's hearts. In the south of the Yangtze River Only here you must pay attention to the mood of the music, cover up the twists and turns, but the listener is far away ten feet away, and after layers of sound insulation are weakened, how much is left in the ear?"

Sima Yuanxian lowered his eyelids: "Since you and I are on the same side, Brother Ren might as well speak out."

"When it comes to administration and power, I believe that there is no one above the imperial court who is an opponent of His Highness. However, since he has no military power and can't command the Three Wus, how can he compete with others?"

People, of course, refers to Xie Xuan, the only person in the Eastern Jin Dynasty who dared to stand against Sima Yuanxian.When Sima Yuanxian came to power, he had no choice but to appoint Xie Xuan, who was out in the field, as the commander-in-chief in order to enrich the country and strengthen the army. The branches are the outside and the inside, so they have the faint strength to challenge the Eastern Jin court.Even though Sima Yuanxian was the prime minister, the only force he actually controlled was the Forbidden Army in Taicheng, and it was difficult for government orders to go out of the Three Wus. However, places with garrisons such as Jingzhou and Yangzhou formed their own factions.Even if Xichuan Qiaozong was to be attacked, the leading commander would most likely be Xie Xuan himself or the generals of the Beifu under his command, and if it was not Sima Yuanxian's turn to make contributions, their hard work would be nothing more than making clothes for others to marry.

Ren Zhen hit the nail on the head, so why didn't he understand? "Then according to Brother Ren's words, Xiao Wang should go and seize Xie's Beifu military power?" Sima Yuanxian asked indifferently, thinking in his heart: If Ren Zhen answered yes, he was deliberately trying to sow dissension and cause him to compete with Xie Xuan. He seized power and eventually led to civil strife in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It can be seen that he has evil intentions, so this person must not be left behind.

Unexpectedly, Ren Zhen waved his hand and said: "The Beifu Army was founded by Xie Xuan alone. Its foundation is already deep, and it is not easy to seize it. What's more, fighting for power is like hurting muscles and bones. It is useless to the country and ourselves. Our country still has to rely on you." The country sent troops to destroy Houyan together, and jointly pursue a great cause, and I am under orders, how dare I come up with such a bad idea?"

Sima Yuanxian suddenly became a little interested, and leaned over to ask: "Then brother Ren has a good plan?"

"Recruiting soldiers." Ren Zhen smiled and said calmly, "Since the taxation and government affairs of the counties of the Three Wu counties are under the control of His Royal Highness, it is possible to issue an edict in the name of Emperor An to recruit tenants who have been exempted from slave status in each county and county. Set up the capital for military service, and in just a year and a half, His Highness will have the strength to compete with Xie Xuan, so why should he be afraid of him?"

Sima Yuanxian was silent, thinking about it in his mind for a long time, and his heart was already active, but he said very conservatively: "This is a big matter, and we need to think about it in the long run."

"Naturally." Ren Zhen accepted it as soon as he saw it, but Sima Yuanxian was already thinking about it, so he smiled and exchanged cups with him - he remembered Yao Song's words when he left Chang'an: "Go to Jiankang now, Success or failure lies with Sima Yuanxian alone.

At that time, I was surprised and asked back: Although Sima Yuanxian is in charge of the government, he is not a weak crown, how can he be so powerful?Yao Song shook his head and said: "Because this person is young, he is naturally determined to forge ahead and strive for strength. Unfortunately, he is too self-willed and eager for success, which is his fatal weakness."

Ren Zhen had to admire Yao Song's knowledge of people thousands of miles away again—Sima Yuanxian was clearly moved—how could he suppress Xie Xuan and become the real uncrowned king of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, how could he not be fascinated.

In the second year of Long'an in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Sima Shang, the former general and the governor of Yuzhou, Qiao Jing Wang, said: I prayed to send troops to Sichuan and regain the Western Shu. support.

Before that, Wang Gong was a staunch "Northern Expedition Sect". He almost gritted his teeth when he mentioned the Yan Kingdom entrenched in the Central Plains. No one thought that he would suddenly change course.Another courtier pointed out that the Western Expeditions since the Eastern Jin Dynasty all failed. Now the northern frontier and the two capitals of Yan are often at odds.Sima Yuanxian, who was in the first squad, waited for the sound of approval behind him, and then raised his head and said proudly: "Who said that the country has no soldiers to use?! Since the Beifu Army has no time to divide troops, then there is no need to divide them - the court will decide separately That's recruiting!"

These words stirred up a thousand waves like a single stone, and while the whole room was silent, Sima Dewen, the emperor's younger brother standing on the other side, was the most shocked-Sima Yuanxian had no military power in his hands no matter how domineering he was in the court. , and based on his royal status, why can't he order the world or even climb up to call for abolishment? !Sima Yuanxian's eloquence had already seen the entire hall, and none of the ministers, Nuonuo, had the guts or a position to refute Sima Yuanxian's words. Even Wang Gong, who had always been upright and stubborn, was abnormally silent. How dare the nominal prince who is weak and has no real power go against his will?In the end, Sima Yuanxian lifted up the corner of the python robe and hurried up the steps. The maids and eunuchs on both sides were dumbfounded looking at this prince who went straight up the imperial steps without being called for the first time since the founding of the country.Sima Yuanxian didn't feel that something was wrong at all, he knelt down in front of Emperor Jin'an with his eyes wide open, and said respectfully but unquestionably: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Sima Dewen opened his mouth, but he didn't dare to stop the scolding, and Emperor Jin'an was always frightened by this familiar and fierce "cousin". On the bright yellow mattress, he nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes, yes."

After a while, Sima Dewen caught up with Wang Gong and stopped him. Wang Gong turned around and saw that it was King Langya.

Sima Dewen was burning in the dark at the moment, how could there be any empty ceremony, he took his robe sleeve tightly in his hand, but he still didn't forget to whisper, avoiding people's eyes and ears: "Master Wang, why did you suddenly second the proposal today? About building a new army?"

Wang Gong smiled wryly and said: "Qiao Zong's separatist regime in Xichuan has been a serious problem for a long time. Since Mr. Sima Lang is determined to regain it, it is natural for us to be a courtier—" Sima Dewen interrupted him anxiously, and asked clearly: "My lord Wang's move is not good. Whose order is it?"

Naturally, Wang Gong knew that he was asking about Xie Xuan—this Sima Dewen was even more nervous than the emperor about the political situation. Unfortunately, he was weak and in name only. Of course he was very nervous about the attitude of Xie Xuan who supported Stone City. If it was true that he had been protecting their brothers The great governor Xie also fell to Sima Yuanxian who controlled the government, and the consequences were naturally worrying.

But at this time, he couldn't help himself and couldn't speak, but he still had a calm demeanor on his face: "If your majesty has any doubts about this, why don't you ask him personally?"

Sima Dewen thought for a moment, and suddenly understood, then he cupped his hands at Wang Gong, and left without a sound.

He got into the car, and when the curtain was lowered, he whispered to his confidant outside the window: "Hold this king's token, and present it to the governor to thank you!"

In less than three days, there will be the annual Yongzhen Temple Dajiao ceremony. Both the emperor and the empress will go out of the palace routinely. Naturally, the momentum is huge. There are many vehicles, people and horses in front of the always clean cave, and there are deacons and guards inside and outside the palace. The eunuchs and civil and military officials crowded the crowd, but the atmosphere of the gathering this time was really delicate. Many ministers "said they were sick", such as Sima Daozi and Sima Yuanxian's father and son; Wang Gong and Wang Dan Two father and son.It was all because Ma Yuanxian, the superior of the previous day, suddenly issued an edict in the name of Emperor An to forcibly conscript the tenants who had been exempted from slave status in various counties and counties in Yangzhou and move them to the capital for military service. Obviously, the next step is to take command of himself and recover Sichuan and Shu.Since the Rebellion of the Eight Kings in the Western Jin Dynasty led to the Shenzhou sinking into land, and the Sima family who returned to the south of the Yangtze River was very taboo about the royal family's military power. The development of the gentry is too large, and the vassals and towns are difficult to publicize and other disadvantages, but they have finally maintained a balance, which is barely up to now.Now "Sima Langjun" is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and is about to break the ancestral convention, but how can Xie Xuan, the governor who has a heavy army in Stone City, be willing?In view of the fact that the current situation of the two factions' rivalry is unclear, everyone is silent.

No matter how dark the outside world was, it could not affect Wang Shenai's ice-snow glazed heart in the slightest.The maids opened the curtains, helped her get off the canopy eight-treasure chariot, and stood beside Emperor Jin'an, looking at this Qionglouyuyu, which was constantly burning incense and singing praises, and finally showed a trace of love from the heart. indifferent smile.The Daoist Liaoqing, who has a handprint of Jiangnan Taoism, came forward to greet the emperor, saluted the empress, and gave the empress a special slap: "Buddha of Immeasurable Life, the empress has become more and more extraordinary." Without him, the empress donated a year The amount of fat and powder money is enough to cover half of the expenses of the Taoist Temple, and the Yongzhen Temple has today's scale, which has benefited a lot from Wang Xie's disciples.

"Thank you, Immortal Elder." Wang Shen'ai smiled lightly. She is known for her roots of wisdom. When she was young and ignorant, her father often followed her example when she meditated and enlightened the Tao. Sometimes her mother saw her and laughed at her for fear that she would become a monk and become a female Taoist priest in the future. ——Now that she is locked in a heavy building and deep in a palace, I don't want to mention this joke.

Sima Dewen stood side by side with her on both sides of the emperor, one on the left and one on the right, and walked slowly with the help of Emperor Jinan. It took less than half a day to go back and forth, but the messengers he sent disappeared without a reply, and there was no movement from Xie Xuan, as if he had let go of the current situation.Sima Dewen knew that his emperor's elder brother could not be counted on, so in desperation he had no choice but to think about complaining to the queen for help. At this moment, he took a sneak peek at Wang Shen'ai, but saw that since she stepped into Yongzhen Temple, there was no sadness or sadness on her face. There was no wave of happiness, and the whole person showed an indifferent and detached look, as if he was about to become a fairy.

According to the usual practice, it takes three days to pray for peace. On the first day, the gods are invited to offer incense, the next day to pray for blessings, to pray for blessings, and finally to send the gods to return gifts.Before noon, the emperor and all the officials offered incense to the statue of the Sanqing gods, and avoided going into the inner hall to eat some vegetarian food, resting temporarily and waiting for the next ceremony.In the room, Wang Shen'ai has long since shed her luxurious clothes and expensive ornaments, dressed as a Taoist nun in Tsing Yi, sat cross-legged with dust whisk in her forehand, and her eyes closed. Uninterrupted, the palace people all know how to avoid it, and they absolutely dare not speak to disturb him when he is meditating.

Andi was still a child at heart, and he didn't like solemn and solemn occasions the most. He had been restrained for half a day, and saw that there was nothing exciting about the food served, so he ate a few mouthfuls and threw it away. Grab Wang Shenai's song skirt: "Sister, I want to go back to the palace~" In terms of actual age, he is a year or two older than Wang Shenai, and the maids want to laugh and cry when they see this, But still no one dared to speak out.

Queen Wang still closed her eyes but frowned. Seeing this, the maid in charge quickly knelt down and helped Emperor Andi to sit up, coaxing softly: "Your Majesty, shall we go out and find His Royal Highness Langya something to eat?"

When the emperor was finally coaxed away to find his brothers, and the room returned to Qingning, Wang Shen'ai seemed to have distracting thoughts, and could not keep quiet and meditate for less than half an hour, so she had to slowly open her eyes and stop the meditation.The maid at the side finally saw the opportunity, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Langya is seeking to see you outside."

Wang Shen'ai was lifted gently, turned around and took the three treasures incense handed over by the maid, as usual, respectfully kowtowed three times in front of the portrait of the Patriarch of the Three Qing Dynasty hanging high in the room, and finally inserted the incense into the furnace. He said coldly: "This palace is being repaired, and no one is there. Please go back to Ansheng and accompany you."

Sima Dewen was obviously anxious waiting outside—Andi finally fell asleep after being tired from playing, so he could get away and complain to Wang Shen'ai for help, hoping that she would come forward to turn the tide—If Sima Yuanxian did it again The status of Emperor Andi and his "imperial brother" will be even more precarious if they take military meritorious service. What's more, Sima Yuanxian may abolish the authority without authorization. At that time, he and the imperial brother may fall into a doomed situation!

Unexpectedly, the maid came to report, but the queen closed the door and disappeared.His heart suddenly turned cold—Wang Shen'ai is not ignorant of the major events that have happened recently, but she has always been obsessed with metaphysics and ignored the government. The last time she helped her was an exception, and this time she seemed to be ready to give up Ignore it.He anxiously wanted to beg the court lady to inform again, but unexpectedly heard the sound of a zither coming from the room, which was clear and melodious but ruthless. away from the body.Sima Dewen knew that Queen Wang's zither sound meant rejection - she was cold-tempered and uncompromising. Although she had been married to the emperor for three years, Emperor An and himself were in awe of her, and they didn't dare to force it, so they had no choice but to let it go He retreated, but he was not reconciled, but he was soft-tempered, so he refused to leave. Instead, he paced back and forth in the corridor not far away. When he was in desperation, he suddenly saw a man dressed as a Confucian scholar rushing in from the outside, as if entering No man's land.Sima Dewen was taken aback. Yongzhen Temple is a forbidden area of ​​the royal family, and today it is heavily guarded. Which commoner would dare to trespass? !

He hurriedly dodged and hid by the wall, stood still and peeked out, but saw that the man's face was like a crown of jade and his appearance was imposing, but it was Xie Xuan, the governor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty who was supposed to be training soldiers in Stone City!

He... He didn't let go of him after all.But why do you want to meet each other in the meditation quietly to avoid people's eyes and ears?But what's the big deal?Sima Dewen had just breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but speculate, when he heard the sound of the piano in the room suddenly stop, and then the delicate voices of the maids came indistinctly with the wind: "The Empress, please thank the governor."

Xie Xuan knelt down on his knees, kowtowed respectfully three times under the steps, and said, "The queen is a thousand years old." After receiving the decree of grace, he stood up in the hall with his hands down, and then he heard the calm voice of the queen: " Brothers of my own family, you don’t need to be strict about etiquette, you might as well go up to the ranks to talk about it.” It should be noted that foreign ministers entering the palace and worshiping the emperor and empress are all strictly governed, and only a few princes in the palace, let alone her in person, can have a personal conversation with the empress.

Xie Xuan thanked him again, just now he got up and walked around a large three-fold frozen stone screen, and unexpectedly bumped into a pair of bright eyes.Just as he was about to bow again, he heard the sitting woman call out "Brother Six."

Xie Xuan is the sixth uncle among the rich family of the Xie family in Chenjun. When he was a child, he was afraid of difficulties in supporting him, so the elders gave him the humble name "Jie", and the relatives and friends in the family and the older brothers joked about it. Xie Xuan was always fond of calling him by the nickname "Liujieer", and Xie Xuan was often angry because of it when he was young. Only when he was studying calligraphy at the mansion of Wang Xianzhi, who was then Zhongshuling, the youngest daughter of the Wang family always looked at him as if He was obedient and clever, and called him "sixth brother" in a childlike voice, and Xie Xuan, who was so fashionable and young at heart, was secretly happy, so he always tried his best to put on a brotherly demeanor in front of her, loving pets-- At that time, Princess Xin'an, the mother of Wang Shen'ai, laughed casually when she saw this and said: "Brothers and sisters are so friendly, when my daughter grows up, if she gets married, she will become a married couple."

This is indeed a joke, Xie Xuan is more than ten years old, and there is no reason for him to match. A few years later, Xie Xuan married another marriageable woman from the Wang family. After Xie Xuan broke the strings, she never married again; Wang Shen'ai married Sima Dezong, the prince of the East Palace at that time, and was promoted to the Central Palace in the first year of Long'an, and her mother loved the world.

Things in the world are like chess, and the gap is too short. The childhood sweethearts and childhood sweethearts of the past have long been blown away by the wind and rain. Now they meet again, one is the mother of a country, and the other is in charge of the military. Their love and affection have long been very different.

However, Wang Shenai shouted such a homely greeting at this moment, and Xie Xuan, who was as cold as Xie Xuan, had to be a little moved, but he hesitated for a moment, and still called softly: "The Empress."

A trace of loneliness flashed in Wang Shen'ai's eyes, but she had already learned not to show her emotions and anger in this deep palace and mansion, so she raised her hand: "Sixth brother, sit down."

Xie Xuan sat down on the three-legged table next to her, and when he looked up, he saw the seven-stringed guqin on the case of Wang Shen'ai, and couldn't help but smile and said: "The famous piano 'Qiong Xiang', I haven't gotten it for nearly ten years. See you, think back before your empress entered the East Palace, the eldest princess would often teach you and me to play together, and in ten years, your empress was in full bloom, but I was already entering middle age."

It seemed that she recalled the carefree youth in Wang's family back then. Wang Shen'ai, who had always been ice-hearted, also showed a touch of fascination and remembrance. She looked at this handsome man who was getting more and more handsome in the past years, and nodded lightly. Said: "Sixth brother's demeanor is even better than before."

Wang Shenai has no dust in his eyes and rarely praises others in his life. These compliments come from the heart and are rare and precious, but Xie Xuan just smiled and went straight to the point: "I shouldn't disturb your mother's cultivation. However, there are many eyes and ears in the palace, Yongzhen Temple is still safer, so I had to rush back to Jiankang from Stone City overnight, and sneaked into the temple to meet the queen."

Wang Shenai was slightly suffocated for breathing, lowered his eyelids, stared at his ten tubes of white jade water onion-like fingers for a long while, and then said softly: "The governor has something to say, my palace, I would like to hear more about it."

"How could Sima Yuanxian's recruitment of soldiers happen so suddenly? Can it be announced to the world in the name of the 'imperial decree' without any warning?"

Wang Shenai smiled bitterly and said, "The governor blames me for not being able to stop it?" She raised her eyes to Xie Xuan, her tone turned sharply: "After all, Sima Yuanxian is the minister of the dynasty, the imperial power was chartered, and the previous dynasty was in charge of the government, so he ordered the emperor on the spot. Why is it difficult to nod and agree? After all, this palace is a female stream, and the affairs of the harem can be delegated for one or two, but it can't take into account the political affairs of the foreign court. Since Sima Yuanxian's recruitment of private soldiers happened in the court, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty could not stop it , the decision can be made at the time of the court, how can this palace be able to predict and take precautions before it happens!"

Hearing these words directly pointed at Wang Gong and Wang Dan's father and son's unreasonable defection—if it hadn't happened so suddenly and too quickly, why would he rush back to Beijing to meet the queen behind his back—Xie Xuan hurriedly stood up and bowed his head, saying respectfully : "I don't dare—it's just that Sima Yuanxian wants to form an alliance with Yan and use troops to the northwest; at the same time, he expands his power and prepares to build an army. -"

Wang Shen'ai said coldly: "Sima Yuanxian, as the prime minister, sent troops to Xichuan to recover the Kingdom of Shu. What's wrong? Is it good for all the men in the Sima family to play foolishly?"

In the past in the palace, she stood up to protect Emperor Jin'an and suppressed Sima Yuanxian's arrogance. It was nothing more than Xie Xuan's request. However, in the end, Wang Shen loved his husband, Sima Dezong. It is obviously the same, according to her heart, as long as the "Sima Langjun" who has power over the government and the public does not go to the point of stealing the country and seeking power, then how domineering, how he wields power, and how he governs the country will have nothing to do with her, a woman who is destined to be imprisoned for half a lifetime. What's the matter?

As soon as Xie Xuan heard the resentment implied in these words, he also fell silent. The foreman maid was an old man who followed before she left the pavilion. Seeing this, she quietly led everyone to retreat. Xie Xuan waited until there was no one around to persuade her : "Madam, I know that you have a noble character. Idle clouds and wild cranes never want to climb dragons and phoenixes, and even hide from the world in the palace because of unwillingness to enter Taoism. However, you and I were born into this family of Wang Xie, who is full of bells and lanterns. Endless responsibilities and obligations - no matter what, you must protect the emperor and never leave him."

Wang Shen'ai raised her head, turned her face, and interrupted him with a serious tone: "I know. I knew it from the day I put on my wedding dress. The reason why only Wang Xie is the most prosperous of the four big clans in the south of the Yangtze River is because of intermarriage and From generation to generation, there have been direct descendants who have been married to the royal family. If it weren't for such blood dissolving in water, we, a family of powerful ministers with a family full of ministers, would have long been taboo and have been exterminated several times! Now that we have embarked on this road of no return, I have no regrets, no hatred, no unwillingness.”

What she said was very resolute, but how could a beautiful young girl who was talented, educated, and wealthy be buried in this nine-tiered palace, accompanied by a green lantern and dusty pill furnace futon, how could she have no regrets, no hatred, and no unwillingness?Xie Xuan sighed softly, and lamented in the tone of a brother like when he was a child: "Little sister, you have suffered."

bitter?Everyone in the world said that she is the mother of the country, and she is well-clothed and well-fed, so why bother?Little do they know that there are seven sufferings in life—craziness, resentment, hatred, love, parting, the most bitterness is nothing you can’t ask for!Wang Shenai was in a daze for a while, until Xie Xuan realized that the identities of the two of them were already in vain, and hurriedly confessed, she turned her head and looked at Xie Xuan firmly: "Sixth brother, if you were married and your cousin was not Passed away, there is a princess of the right age under the late emperor's knees who wants to give it to you, will you stop wives and marry again?"

Xie Xuan is both literary and military, possessing both talent and virtue. His poetry and wine are the most romantic in the south of the Yangtze River.However, he hesitated for a while and then nodded, "Yes. Just like in the Ningkang period, under the emperor's order, your father had no choice but to divorce his wife. Princess Shang Xin'an is my generation's responsibility." (Note 1)

Under the twilight, Wang Shenai's face was pale without a trace of blood, and she was like a snowman carved from ice and jade. After a long time, she nodded heavily: "Okay. Brother Six is ​​honest enough. You and I have dedicated our lives to The bet is to try my best to protect Wang Xie's family forever. Now that Sima Yuanxian has taken the lead, how can he break the game?"

Seeing what Wang Shenai said, Xie Xuan felt relieved, and asked sternly: "The matter of recruiting soldiers and music is too sudden, and Wang Gong suddenly changed his course and supported the alliance with Yan. I suspect that the two things are related. ——or someone was implicated in the plot!"

Wang Shenai Bingxue is smart, although he seldom asks about politics, he understands everything: "You mean - is the envoy of Yan Kingdom secretly manipulating?"

"It's not certain at the moment." Xie Xuan pondered, "Although Sima Yuanxian is young and frivolous, he is self-willed. Logically speaking, he would not easily trust foreign envoys who are not of my race, and Wang Gong is not greedy for profit. How can you be bought into a marriage?"

Sima Yuanxian's army seizure of power happened suddenly. He knew that the matter was serious, and he didn't dare to draw conclusions and act rashly before he was fully sure. While the two were still discussing, the name was called outside the hall and reported: Prince Kuaiji Sima Yuanxian asked to see him.

Wang Shen'ai was stunned for a moment: "Didn't he ask for leave today because of illness?" Xie Xuan understood: he had just arrived at Sima Yuanxian's back, obviously it was a coincidence that he only stepped on it after receiving news from his ears and eyes. ——He had summoned him back to the capital several times in the name of official business, but he was evasively refused, but now he sneaked into the queen's inner room and met with her majesty alone. It is also very inappropriate to spread the name.

"My palace is passing the decree, if you don't see him, it will be."

Xie Xuan smiled wryly and shook his head, "He's so deliberate to kill me halfway that he must have known the opportunity to intercept me, how can he give up easily? Sima Yuanxian really has a hand and eye, and he didn't expect that even this Yongzhen Temple would be planted by him. .”

Wang Shenai was a little flustered when she heard the words, Xie Xuan reassured her, "I avoided by the side door, and the queen will deal with it as usual."

Wang Shen'ai could only nod her head carelessly, and ordered someone to invite her.Sure enough, Sima Yuanxian arrived before he arrived, and his voice came first, he almost rushed into the room with strides: "Xiao Wang feels unwell today, so I am a step late, I hope the queen will make amends." Looking at it, he said with a smile: "Xiao Wang was deaf for a while, and he seemed to hear the voices in the hall outside. It was only when the Empress Empress was sincerely grateful, that the Patriarch of the Sanqing Dynasty appeared in the mortal world."

Wang Shen'ai said coldly: "It seems that the prince is really unwell, and he should be more pious when he prays to God later."

Sima Yuanxian was not angered, and responded with a slight smile. Wang Shenai was anxious to let Xie Xuan get away, and wanted to send him away without saying a few words. Who knew that the more anxious she was, the more determined Sima Yuanxian was. Xicha just refused to resign, but suffered from Xie Xuan who was separated by a wall and couldn't escape.

The Yongzhen Temple is no different from the imperial palace, the structure of the room is simple, it is the place where the emperor and the empress stay and rest, and there is no detour for Tibetans. The guards who came towards him were shocked: Sima Yuanxian really came prepared, and his family's personal soldiers were waiting around the temple with strict security.If he could forcefully rush out with his own skills, but this would cause more commotion, it would be even more embarrassing if Sima Yuanxian took advantage of it on the spot.Xie Xuan was stuck in the middle, unable to escape and unable to hide, when he was unable to get away, he was lightly pressed on the shoulder, he turned his head suddenly, and shot like lightning, directly hitting the door of life.

But that person seemed to have expected it long ago, with one hand blocking and blocking, he transformed his ultimate move, and took the first step to grab Xie Xuan's wrist, whispering: "Xie Lang, it's me."

Xie Xuan pulled out his hand suddenly, and punched him again, slamming his face furiously, Youyou gritted his teeth and said: "It really is you—Ren, Zhen!"

Note 1: Wang Xianzhi, the father of Wang Shenai, was the seventh son of Wang Xizhi, and he was the most romantic at one time. He had a deep relationship with his first wife, Xi Daomao. After Emperor Xiaowu ascended the throne, he pointed his sister, Princess Xin'an, to Wang Xianzhi, which forced him to rest in pain. Wife, and later gave birth to the only queen, God Love.However, his original partner, Xi Daomao, lived a miserable life after being repatriated to her natal family, with nothing to rely on, and died of no illness within three years.
