I'm not Murong Chong
Chapter 138
Eastern Jin Jiankang Palace
Sima Yuanxian staggered out of the west hall of the Tai Chi Hall, and immediately two rows of young guards embroidered with brocade and silk embroidered surrounded him like stars holding the moon, and three or five ministers could only follow behind him from a distance. Singing praises: "Your Majesty is wise and mighty, and he solved the downfall of the people without bloodshed, which is really a merit for thousands of years!"
Sima Yuanxian got tired of hearing these words a long time ago, although he was indeed very proud of himself-as expected, Sun En's group of vigorous mobs, as soon as they occupied the six counties of Kuaiji, they hurriedly ransacked the internal strife, and their mouths were loud and clear The people shouted to march and kill Sima Yuanxian and his son to take the Qing emperor's side, but in fact no group of troops were willing to leave the rich and prosperous land of the Three Wus and go north to attack Jiankang.After such a delay for three to five months, the morale of the army gradually dissipated, and the best time to send troops to fight has already passed.At the turn of spring and summer, the epidemic in the south of the Yangtze River reappeared, and many women and children in the army were infected. Sun En thought it would be a burden to accompany the army, so he tied the women and babies and threw them into the water. Ascend to Xiantang, we will arrive later, what a blessing!
Sima Yuanxian waited until they were in trouble for a long time and the people's hearts were lost, then he ordered Liu Laozhi to lead [-] Beifu troops to go south, but they didn't reach Kuaiji, but stopped and stationed along the Qiantang River to put pressure on Sun En's army on the other side— — No matter how obedient Liu Laozhi is, he is also a mighty general in charge of the Beifu army. Sima Yuanxian managed to integrate the forces of the local vassals and towns, and dared not let Liu Laozhi intervene in his territory.While deterring Sun En, Sima Yuanxian adjusted his strategy, changed his previous tough attitude, and sent Sun En a letter of appointment as the governor of Guangzhou.
Either fight to the death with Liu Laozhi's soldiers of hundreds of battles, or bring those "immortal" beggars to Guangzhou to become a local emperor.
In less than five days, Sun En ordered to withdraw from Kuaiji and the whole army to withdraw to Lingnan - such a barren land that could not squeeze out oil and water, Sima Yuanxian would not care much, as long as he was not independent in name, he was still affiliated with the Eastern Jin Dynasty In the court, he was happy to reward Sun En in exchange for the six counties in eastern Zhejiang, which are heavily taxed.
As a result, an originally vigorous refugee uprising was beaten up by Sima Yuanxian, and it was temporarily quelled by double-faced swordsmanship. The court was full of praises, and Sima Yuanxian's reputation was so high that no one would care about Sima for a long time. When Yuan Xian deliberately let Sun En do harm to Jiangdong in order to eradicate dissidents, how many people were displaced and died unexpectedly.
Sima Yuanxian fell on the shoulders in such a smug mood-the palace rules have an appointment: except for the emperor and empress, anyone who rides in a car, sedan chair, or walks in the palace is beyond the limit, but Sima Yuanxian insisted on making it for himself. Come to the entire East Palace guard of honor, and enter and exit the palace in a grand manner.
A few handsome guards who have been selected from thousands of people stepped forward, raised their shoulders steadily, and walked slowly towards Jianchun Gate. Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at Da Sima Gate, they saw a gorgeous car with carved dragons and phoenixes blocking the front.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay, and had to put down their shoulders for the time being, and knelt down to pay respects together: "I have seen the empress, the empress is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"
Sima Yuanxian naturally saw Feng Jia, but he sat there without moving a muscle - in the past six months, Wang Shen'ai has lived more and more reclusively, either practicing Zen in the palace or staying with the stupid emperor in Qingliang Hall, and now he puts on a full queen's suit. The guard of honor blocked his way, obviously they came prepared to wait for him.
The two were separated by several feet, facing each other at a distance, but Wang Shen'ai couldn't hold back, and with the help of the maid, she took the lead to get off the chariot and walked straight to Sima Yuanxian. Fadu was nothing worth mentioning in front of this proud King of the East China Sea: "Please return Xie Xuan, my lord."
Sima Yuanxian was a little surprised by her straightforwardness.He lazily got out of his shoulders, and said with a half-smile: "Your Majesty, I don't understand what you said--Dudu Xie, oh, no, Mr. is a guest at my house, so why pay it back? You want to 'return' me?" who?"
Wang Shenai ignored his provocation, and said with a sneer: "What kind of guest can be silent for a month or two? Even if Xie Xuan has no rank, he is still the head of the Xie family in Chen County—how can you let you do whatever you want?" captivity!"
"Your Majesty, be careful!" Sima Yuanxian raised his voice and confronted each other, "Now is there a bitter master who sues this king for imprisonment? good."
"I'm not here to argue with you." Wang Shen'ai raised her hand, and the maid beside her immediately touched a nanmu brocade box with both hands.She waved it away casually, picked up the golden seal in the box, and said decisively, "I hold the phoenix seal in my hand, and issued an edict on the spot, asking you to release Xie Xuan immediately!"
At that time, the power minister Huan Wenquan was in power and wanted to usurp the throne. Emperor Jian Wen, who was supported by him, was like a puppet. Huan Wen repeatedly hinted that he would threaten Emperor Jian Wen to abdicate. No matter how angry he was, he dared not disobey—as long as Sima Yuanxian was still a courtier of the Jin Dynasty, no matter how arrogant he was, he couldn't openly ignore the imperial mother's imperial edict!
Sima Yuanxian raised his eyebrows, lifted the hem of his clothes, as if he was about to kneel, but in the next moment he rushed forward, pressed the phoenix seal suddenly, and said with a sneer: "My empress, my king and the emperor's jade seal You are not afraid, but you are still afraid of your little Phoenix Seal? Do you think—now there is Xie Xuan who can back you up?" As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked the sleeve of his robe, and the golden seal was rolled up and swept to the ground!
"I advise you to learn from the emperor's younger brother Langya King Sima Dewen—Ming, Zhe, Bao, Shen!" Sima Yuanxian stood with his hands behind his back, and said proudly, "I never give up what I want! "
"Oh? This is really about to change." Liu Yu was dressed in common clothes, sitting cross-legged on the hall, wiping his long-sealed sword, and He Wuji, who hadn't changed his court clothes yet, said from the side: "Deyu , Sima Yuan appeared to be ignored even by the queen and refused to let him go, now that things are going on, you still want to put the treasure on Xie Xuan?"
Liu Yu shoved his sword into its sheath with a groan: "As a gambler, the most taboo is to be ruthless and weak-hearted. If you have a bad eye, even if you lost countless money before, you can turn it all over at the last moment!" Glancing at He Wuji, "Xie Xuan is my trump card for turning the tables."
He Wuji didn't refute, but curled his lips secretly: Liu Yu followed Xie Xuan to send troops to release horses for several years, but he admired this former commander-in-chief of the Beifu, and now he refuses to give up—he is now trapped in the palace, and his life is uncertain. Even the king and queen can't save people, so what else can Xie Xuan, a trapped beast, do to save himself?
Liu Yu knew he didn't believe it—He Wuji always felt that Sima Yuan was now in power, and that it would be a matter of time before all the gentry forces were suppressed.
"Now you are highly valued by Sima Yuanxian, so pay more attention when entering and leaving the palace." Liu Yu pointed at the case and said, "No matter how hard Xie Xuan endures, he also has his own bottom line of integrity. I hope Sima Yuanxian Just make an inch, and go too far—look, the Dragon Shoal is still a dragon!"
Sima Yuanxian ordered Wang Guobao's daughter, the noble concubine Wang Shi, to rush into the Huiyin Palace with a large number of maids and servants, and took away Jin Jin who was learning to write big characters under the guidance of Wang Shen'ai. Emperor An's reason was that "the queen's palace failed to give birth to a dragon child within a few years, and she couldn't discipline the palace outside, so she was ashamed to hold the phoenix seal".
Emperor Jin'an was snatched by such a large group of people and surrounded, he was startled instinctively, but he didn't dare to speak - since he was poisoned by Fu Hong last year, the residual poison entered his brain, and he became more timid and stupid weak.The king's god suddenly changed color with love—since the Jin Dynasty, no one dared to openly force the queen to hand over the phoenix seal by relying on the power of the foreign court!
"Your actions are tantamount to forcing the palace!" Wang Shenai said angrily in a cold voice, "One day the palace is still the queen, and the Phoenix seal must stay in the Huiyin Palace for one day! Even if the empress is abolished, it will not be Sima Yuan's turn." Be the master!"
Concubine Wang Guifei had given instructions earlier, and she did not back down at all, and pulled over Emperor Jin'an: "Your Majesty thinks that this concubine can't ask the emperor for an imperial decree to abolish the Empress?!"
Emperor Jin'an was like a puppet, he was at the mercy of others, so how difficult would it be to concoct an imperial decree?Fortunately, the royal seal has always been kept by the emperor's younger brother Langya King Sima Dewen, and any imperial edict must be read and sealed by him - but Sima Dewen has been suppressed by the powerful Sima Yuanxian and dare not lift it. He can give up his crown prince's guard of honor, but this time, in the face of their aggression, how determined is he to resist to the end?
Unexpectedly, Sima Dewen, who has always been weak, refused to hand over the imperial seal because he knew that once Sima Yuanxian dared to abolish the empress, he would not talk about abolishing the emperor and abolishing the prince.Sima Yuanxian didn't expect that this soft prince would dare to tremblingly and tremblingly go against his wishes this time, and suddenly he was furious, and planned to impeach Sima Dewen for his "immorality" by plotting all the officials to accuse him.
Although Sima Dewen himself was frightened to death and could not shrink back, some officials who were not used to Sima Yuanxian's wanton use of power and refused to be attached to the party formed a faction to compete with him in the court and refused to compromise.Sima Yuanxian is used to being domineering. In order to come to power, even his father's official position can be abolished at will. The usual method of dealing with these weak opposition parties is to eradicate them vigorously and vigorously.Within a month, dozens of officials in the Eastern Jin Dynasty were convicted for their words, and at least they were demoted from their posts, and at worst they were exiled. Suddenly, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which had just temporarily quelled the Sun En Rebellion, was once again bloody.
The door opened with a creak, and a bright blue figure flashed in. Xie Xuan, who was lying on the couch, didn't hear anything. He opened his eyes and calmly looked at the silk tent with pearls in a trance.
It wasn't until someone brought a pot of orchid soup in front of him that he rolled his eyes slightly, but it was still like a pool of extremely clear stagnant water.
It is not the first time that Qing Cong saw this face that resembled him but not in spirit, but he was still shocked by the shock. He quickly avoided his eyes and rolled up his sleeves for Xie Xuan: "Your Majesty, I will help you!" Wipe yourself."
The generation of famous generals who once scolded Fang Qiu on the battlefield could only let him push and turn around without any resistance, as soft as a puddle of mud.Qing Cong twisted a piece of handkerchief, and wiped it down carefully along his back—this body looked tall and tall, with well-proportioned flesh and bones, but it was full of scars after taking off the clothes, and every scar was a witness Over the past ten years, the flames of war have collected dust.
Basically, they are two-way people with him. Speaking of which, the King of the East China Sea really committed crimes.Qing Cong's movements froze for a moment, and he recalled the big turmoil a month ago.
As soon as the effect of the medicine faded that night, Xie Xuan woke up, and saw himself lying limp on the bed, with no internal energy in his body, not even the Mo Yang sword with him, and outside the courtyard, there were open flames and overlapping figures, all of whom were loyal to Sima Yuanxian guard.
He understood in an instant, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat—he really never imagined that Sima Yuanxian would be so bold and aggressive after he overthrew Xie Yan, the last leader of the Xie family!Although he has no position or nobility, he is still the head of the Xie family in Chenjun, how dare he! ?
He forced himself to calm down and think about how to get out, but Sima Yuanxian didn't know what kind of medicine he had given him, which made his muscles and bones numb and unable to move.
Just after Haishi, Sima Yuanxian pushed the door and walked in. As soon as he closed the door behind his back, the sound outside disappeared immediately. Xie Xuan knew that Sima Yuanxian's minions had not been withdrawn, and the quietness was just to avoid sweeping the place. The "Yaxing" of the uncrowned emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty.
Sima Yuanxian held the candlestick in his hand, leaned over and carefully looked up and down the motionless person, and then suddenly extinguished the flickering candle.He sat next to Xie Xuan under the moonlight, and smiled comfortably: "Sir, I am very familiar with his voice and smile, so why do you need a candle?" He took Xie Xuan's weakly hanging left hand, and put it to his lips for a kiss: " Or to put it another way, I don't care about how you were born. I have a lot of worlds, what kind of beauty do I want? It's more than looks, than figure. Why should I be obsessed with a man who has passed his [-]s for the past ten years? Sir, I know you are arrogant and arrogant, all of you Wang Xie’s children have such problems, and in the end, you are dragged down by this disease and become disabled and have nothing, so why bother?”
His infatuated eyes were like poisonous snakes, making goosebumps all over Xie Xuan's body, but Sima Yuanxian's next move broke his last trace of clarity.
"That's fine, if you haven't broken your arm and resigned, I don't know when I'll be able to get what I want!" Sima Yuanxian suddenly changed his face, tore off Xie Xuan's azure robe, leaned over and bit it hard. On his carotid artery!
He has waited for too long, expended too much energy, and if he doesn't vent, how can he do it!He already doesn't want to know the consequences of his reckless risk this time, and he doesn't know how long he can be obsessed with this man after he succeeds. He only knows that he loves him to the bone now, so much that he can't wait to swallow him whole. Only when you can get it can you have it!
The scorching lips anxiously devoured the hard skin under his body until his right arm was broken—Sima Yuanxian licked it up without hesitation, and sucked it tenderly and delicately—Xie Xuan suddenly shivered, Sima Yuan Apparently he didn't care, he had done countless experiments on the secret medicine presented by Wang Guobao, even if Xie Xuan had the skill before when he was not disabled, his inner strength would be stripped away like a cocoon.However, Xie Xuan's trembling began to become coherent and intensified, and turned into a trembling all over his body like an evil spirit. In the end, he didn't know where the strength came from, and suddenly sat up and vomited the filth all over Sima Yuanxian.
Sima Yuanxian, who was originally in high spirits, stared dumbfounded as if struck by lightning, as Xie Xuanfu vomited on the quilt until he finally had nothing to vomit, so he began to vomit out one mouthful at a time. Only then did Sima Yuanxian realize that something was wrong, he hurriedly held down Xie Xuan who was dripping wet, and shouted for medical correction.
The doctors in the West Mansion are even more skilled than the imperial physicians in the imperial palace, but they all shake their heads and do nothing about Xie Xuan's strange disease. Generally speaking, life is continued with ginseng soup.
However, Xie Xuan didn't drink water or rice these days, and he couldn't get it poured, and he didn't have any other symptoms, but he would vomit non-stop whenever someone touched him. There is no cure - Sima Yuanxian is naturally furious, the person he has not got, even God, don't even try to snatch him!He chopped off the head of the doctor who was in charge of the consultation, and he did not allow the people in the mansion to reveal anything to the public, and continued to search for famous doctors from the people. The whole palace was in a hurry, but it was still fruitless.
In the end, Wang Guobao gave an idea. Since Xie Xuan is going to be vomiting and diarrhea when he is awake, it is better to let him not be awake. No strength, no mind, and its medicinal or toxic properties are much stronger than the five stone powder that has been popular in recent years.
This powerful medicine really slowed down Xie Xuan for the time being, but he was either in a coma or had a seizure all day long, but Sima Yuanxian still failed to succeed, so he could only continue to use the medicine to suppress his internal strength, confining him day after day In the government, strict supervision.
After Qing Cong finished wiping, he bowed cautiously to Xie Xuan, and when he was about to step back, he heard him ask in a hoarse voice, "What's your name?"
Qing Cong hurriedly said: "The servant girl is called Qing Cong."
"This is Sima Yuanxian's name. How can such a good person be called a horse?" Xie Xuan's face was calm, but there was a trace of emotion in his eyes: "I asked about the original name."
Qing Cong smiled miserably: "The slaves have been sold in Goulan since they can remember, so they don't have any serious names, they are just called whatever the nobles like."
Xie Xuan was silent for a moment, then nodded weakly: "It's also a poor person."
Qing Cong was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Tsinghua's noble and well-known Xie Jiabaoshu would sympathize with such an Israeli servant.In fact, before Xie Xuan was imprisoned in the mansion, he was indeed a little jealous and unwilling-it was said that they were born similar, but their fates were as different as heaven and earth, until now he witnessed Xie Xuan's suffering with his own eyes. Falling from a high place in the sky, it may not be unhappy in his heart - he was disabled with a broken arm, lost his freedom, and was trapped between this square inch of heaven and earth all day long, which is as different from his previous situation, but no matter what kind of adversity Xie Xuan is in, he is always He was neither humble nor arrogant, nor arguing nor making trouble, and now... he is still called "poor".
Qing Cong hurriedly lowered his head: "Your maidservant will leave."
Xie Xuan nodded his head feebly, until he closed the door, he said again: "You seven-foot man is not an eunuch in the palace, so you don't need to call yourself a slave."
It wasn't until the room returned to silence and darkness that Xie Xuan breathed out a silent breath—although this Qing Cong was a few years old, he could still tell what kind of a living he had done.And these days he has been bedridden, and Qing Cong has been free to come and go and take care of him personally. It can be seen that Sima Yuanxian has a lot of trust in him, but he may not have taken the opportunity to mock him.He looked on coldly, although this person came from a lowly profession, he was not proud of being favored, and he made troubles in a flirtatious manner, perhaps, it was worth using.
Originally, Xie Xuan didn't like to deal with people of all kinds of religions. When he was in Xuancheng, he often couldn't understand someone who could completely lower his figure and chat with ordinary people who were traffickers and pawns. However, Ren Zhen waved his hand and said disapprovingly: " You have read a lot of books, don’t you hear the classics of ‘Meng Changjun’s cock crowing dog steals the letter’? There is no distinction between talents, as long as you read and use them, it doesn’t matter if they are scholars or dog slaughterers?” Xie Xuan was still stubborn at the time. Said: "Every time Master Ren sees someone, he has to spend a lot of money to find ways to make friends, but it is very tiring." Ren Zhen patted him on the shoulder carelessly: "Once the friendship bought with gold and silver reaches the moment of stake You can't count on it at all, don't think that poor people are short-sighted, sometimes they are as awkward as you, Wang Xie's children, and they are very energetic~" The last sentence was completely in need of beating, Xie Xuan couldn't bear to let it go Disappointed, he immediately kicked hard.
Thinking about it now, these trivial things are more like things in the previous life than the turbulent years on the battlefield.Xie Xuan struggled to raise his right hand, and struggled to caress the small paper bag hidden in his waist—it contained the Xianbei secret medicine "Yinhuan". He saw that Jiankang had seen Ren Zhen use it before, and knew its function The medicinal properties and toxicity complement each other, and it is very powerful when it sees blood.When he fell off his horse with an arrow in the outskirts of his eldest son, Murong Yong gave him the proceeds of healing.At that time, even though he was bleeding profusely, he still couldn't let it go for a moment, and he always carried this small packet of medicine powder with him, never leaving his body.That night he lost all his internal strength, he knew it was inevitable, in a hurry, he dipped his fingers into the powder and put it in his mouth - he didn't bother to think about the consequences, Sima Yuanxian had already killed him.If the first vomiting was unbearable but out of control due to the poison of the silver ring, then the second and third more serious seizures were intentionally caused by him-generally famous doctors in the south of the Yangtze River do not know the secret medicine of Xianbei, so naturally It is impossible to tell whether it is a poison or a disease, and there is no way to solve it.
However, whether it is to sit and wait for death or linger on, it is not something that Xie Xuan will do.
From that day on, Xie Xuan was still "deadly ill" and "difficult to recover from serious illness". Whenever Sima Yuanxian came back disappointed, he always had a conversation with Qing Cong. He didn't talk much, but the sentences pierced his chest. Looking at that person, it was the first time to deliberately make friends with someone he had dismissed.
He began to understand the changes in the external situation through Qingcong. He began to know that Sima Yuanxian was acting against the sky with his hands covering the sky. The more people became dissatisfied, Wang Gong, the current governor of Beifu who was far away in Jingkou, solemnly imposed a crime. Although he used the excuse of impeaching Wang Guobao, he actually pointed the finger at Sima Yuanxian, who was using power and stealing the country.
Sima Yuanxian has long been different from the past, and his answer to this is to stay in the middle and not to publish, and to denigrate the officials of the Wang Gong family who are officials in the court. Good at governing the country - people with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that after the two brothers Xie Xuan and Xie Yan, Sima Yuanxian must deal with Wang Gong, the governor of the Northern Mansion appointed by Xie Xuan, who is outside the army.As a result, the relationship between the imperial court and the feudal town became increasingly tense.
The Liu Mansion, which is hidden in the ordinary alleys, is no longer peaceful tonight.Several knights came galloping, the leader was dressed neatly, rolled off the saddle, threw the whip to the guards behind him, and said in a low voice: "Guard the street, and no one else is allowed to enter or leave!"
The one who opened the door was Liu Yu's wife, Zang Shi. Although she was not from a famous family, she was alert and prudent. Seeing that He Wuji, who was in an important position, came to visit in such a row at night, she knew that it was not a trivial matter, so she hurriedly welcomed her into the study, and then After brewing two cups of new tea, he took his servants and retreated far away, and went to the door to be on duty in person.
"Deyu, it's exactly as you expected!" He Wuji's eyes lit up excitedly, and before he could sit down, he said, "Fortunately, I listened to your words and often walked around the West Mansion. Today, a favorite of the King of the East China Sea, named Qing Cong, suddenly yelled. Stop me, who do you think? It was Xie Xuan who wanted to pass on the news to me! Afterwards, he asked me to bring out two kits, one for the governor of the king, and one for you by name!"
Liu Yu unwrapped the kit in a calm manner, and smiled: "Order me to go out of Beijing secretly, go to Jingkou, and assist Wang Gong." After that, he pointed to the other kit for Wang Gong: "Then that It is self-evident what is written in it - it must be an appeal to order him to raise troops! Xie Xuan is definitely not the type to resign himself to anything, he has judged the situation and endured it until now, all in order to wait for the most appropriate time to take the initiative to attack Sima Yuanxian , win in one battle!"
He Wuji smiled and said: "Once the Beifu army really revolts, the Yue soldiers and Wuyi camp that Sima Yuanxian relies on will not be enough. I never thought that Xie Xuan is a half-crippled man, and Sima Yuan Xian is so strictly guarded, and he can still buy people's hearts and act secretly! Fortunately, I heard you that day, and I didn't completely surrender to the king of the East China Sea and made trouble for him. Otherwise, how could I join the army with you? Only with soldiers in your pocket and money in your pocket can you be invincible! Let's leave the city immediately to see Wang Gong!"
But Liu Yu shook his head lightly again: "No. You still have to wait for the opportunity to enter the palace, meet the queen, and present this kit and the letter face to face. It is best to say that Dudu Xie's situation is as miserable as possible. If there is no accident, the empress will issue an imperial edict out of anger and apprehension—with the imperial edict in hand, you and I will no longer be rebellious officials and thieves who rebelled, but hard-working kings and heroes who have painstakingly rescued us. Be famous!"
He Wuji clapped his hands in praise, then turned around and left to set things up.Liu Yu went to the hall alone, and slowly drank the remaining tea in his hand: He didn't believe what he had thought, Xie Xuan didn't think about it, he must be playing the mouse, considering that the queen was trapped in the deep palace, he didn't want her to be involved in this battle , and made Sima Yuanxian unfavorable to her.But he doesn't care, he only wants the final victory!
In the autumn of the second year of Long'an in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Wang Gong, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Mansion, raised troops in Jingkou under the Queen's order, and swore to serve the king with the eight major crimes of Sima Yuanxian, the king of the East China Sea, "dividing the emperor and empress, causing trouble in the palace, controlling the government, and becoming increasingly disobedient".The whole journey was invincible, and most counties even opened their doors to welcome the surrender. In less than half a month, the army arrived in Guazhou, and the soldiers pointed directly at Jiankang, causing the court to tremble.
Sima Yuanxian staggered out of the west hall of the Tai Chi Hall, and immediately two rows of young guards embroidered with brocade and silk embroidered surrounded him like stars holding the moon, and three or five ministers could only follow behind him from a distance. Singing praises: "Your Majesty is wise and mighty, and he solved the downfall of the people without bloodshed, which is really a merit for thousands of years!"
Sima Yuanxian got tired of hearing these words a long time ago, although he was indeed very proud of himself-as expected, Sun En's group of vigorous mobs, as soon as they occupied the six counties of Kuaiji, they hurriedly ransacked the internal strife, and their mouths were loud and clear The people shouted to march and kill Sima Yuanxian and his son to take the Qing emperor's side, but in fact no group of troops were willing to leave the rich and prosperous land of the Three Wus and go north to attack Jiankang.After such a delay for three to five months, the morale of the army gradually dissipated, and the best time to send troops to fight has already passed.At the turn of spring and summer, the epidemic in the south of the Yangtze River reappeared, and many women and children in the army were infected. Sun En thought it would be a burden to accompany the army, so he tied the women and babies and threw them into the water. Ascend to Xiantang, we will arrive later, what a blessing!
Sima Yuanxian waited until they were in trouble for a long time and the people's hearts were lost, then he ordered Liu Laozhi to lead [-] Beifu troops to go south, but they didn't reach Kuaiji, but stopped and stationed along the Qiantang River to put pressure on Sun En's army on the other side— — No matter how obedient Liu Laozhi is, he is also a mighty general in charge of the Beifu army. Sima Yuanxian managed to integrate the forces of the local vassals and towns, and dared not let Liu Laozhi intervene in his territory.While deterring Sun En, Sima Yuanxian adjusted his strategy, changed his previous tough attitude, and sent Sun En a letter of appointment as the governor of Guangzhou.
Either fight to the death with Liu Laozhi's soldiers of hundreds of battles, or bring those "immortal" beggars to Guangzhou to become a local emperor.
In less than five days, Sun En ordered to withdraw from Kuaiji and the whole army to withdraw to Lingnan - such a barren land that could not squeeze out oil and water, Sima Yuanxian would not care much, as long as he was not independent in name, he was still affiliated with the Eastern Jin Dynasty In the court, he was happy to reward Sun En in exchange for the six counties in eastern Zhejiang, which are heavily taxed.
As a result, an originally vigorous refugee uprising was beaten up by Sima Yuanxian, and it was temporarily quelled by double-faced swordsmanship. The court was full of praises, and Sima Yuanxian's reputation was so high that no one would care about Sima for a long time. When Yuan Xian deliberately let Sun En do harm to Jiangdong in order to eradicate dissidents, how many people were displaced and died unexpectedly.
Sima Yuanxian fell on the shoulders in such a smug mood-the palace rules have an appointment: except for the emperor and empress, anyone who rides in a car, sedan chair, or walks in the palace is beyond the limit, but Sima Yuanxian insisted on making it for himself. Come to the entire East Palace guard of honor, and enter and exit the palace in a grand manner.
A few handsome guards who have been selected from thousands of people stepped forward, raised their shoulders steadily, and walked slowly towards Jianchun Gate. Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at Da Sima Gate, they saw a gorgeous car with carved dragons and phoenixes blocking the front.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay, and had to put down their shoulders for the time being, and knelt down to pay respects together: "I have seen the empress, the empress is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"
Sima Yuanxian naturally saw Feng Jia, but he sat there without moving a muscle - in the past six months, Wang Shen'ai has lived more and more reclusively, either practicing Zen in the palace or staying with the stupid emperor in Qingliang Hall, and now he puts on a full queen's suit. The guard of honor blocked his way, obviously they came prepared to wait for him.
The two were separated by several feet, facing each other at a distance, but Wang Shen'ai couldn't hold back, and with the help of the maid, she took the lead to get off the chariot and walked straight to Sima Yuanxian. Fadu was nothing worth mentioning in front of this proud King of the East China Sea: "Please return Xie Xuan, my lord."
Sima Yuanxian was a little surprised by her straightforwardness.He lazily got out of his shoulders, and said with a half-smile: "Your Majesty, I don't understand what you said--Dudu Xie, oh, no, Mr. is a guest at my house, so why pay it back? You want to 'return' me?" who?"
Wang Shenai ignored his provocation, and said with a sneer: "What kind of guest can be silent for a month or two? Even if Xie Xuan has no rank, he is still the head of the Xie family in Chen County—how can you let you do whatever you want?" captivity!"
"Your Majesty, be careful!" Sima Yuanxian raised his voice and confronted each other, "Now is there a bitter master who sues this king for imprisonment? good."
"I'm not here to argue with you." Wang Shen'ai raised her hand, and the maid beside her immediately touched a nanmu brocade box with both hands.She waved it away casually, picked up the golden seal in the box, and said decisively, "I hold the phoenix seal in my hand, and issued an edict on the spot, asking you to release Xie Xuan immediately!"
At that time, the power minister Huan Wenquan was in power and wanted to usurp the throne. Emperor Jian Wen, who was supported by him, was like a puppet. Huan Wen repeatedly hinted that he would threaten Emperor Jian Wen to abdicate. No matter how angry he was, he dared not disobey—as long as Sima Yuanxian was still a courtier of the Jin Dynasty, no matter how arrogant he was, he couldn't openly ignore the imperial mother's imperial edict!
Sima Yuanxian raised his eyebrows, lifted the hem of his clothes, as if he was about to kneel, but in the next moment he rushed forward, pressed the phoenix seal suddenly, and said with a sneer: "My empress, my king and the emperor's jade seal You are not afraid, but you are still afraid of your little Phoenix Seal? Do you think—now there is Xie Xuan who can back you up?" As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked the sleeve of his robe, and the golden seal was rolled up and swept to the ground!
"I advise you to learn from the emperor's younger brother Langya King Sima Dewen—Ming, Zhe, Bao, Shen!" Sima Yuanxian stood with his hands behind his back, and said proudly, "I never give up what I want! "
"Oh? This is really about to change." Liu Yu was dressed in common clothes, sitting cross-legged on the hall, wiping his long-sealed sword, and He Wuji, who hadn't changed his court clothes yet, said from the side: "Deyu , Sima Yuan appeared to be ignored even by the queen and refused to let him go, now that things are going on, you still want to put the treasure on Xie Xuan?"
Liu Yu shoved his sword into its sheath with a groan: "As a gambler, the most taboo is to be ruthless and weak-hearted. If you have a bad eye, even if you lost countless money before, you can turn it all over at the last moment!" Glancing at He Wuji, "Xie Xuan is my trump card for turning the tables."
He Wuji didn't refute, but curled his lips secretly: Liu Yu followed Xie Xuan to send troops to release horses for several years, but he admired this former commander-in-chief of the Beifu, and now he refuses to give up—he is now trapped in the palace, and his life is uncertain. Even the king and queen can't save people, so what else can Xie Xuan, a trapped beast, do to save himself?
Liu Yu knew he didn't believe it—He Wuji always felt that Sima Yuan was now in power, and that it would be a matter of time before all the gentry forces were suppressed.
"Now you are highly valued by Sima Yuanxian, so pay more attention when entering and leaving the palace." Liu Yu pointed at the case and said, "No matter how hard Xie Xuan endures, he also has his own bottom line of integrity. I hope Sima Yuanxian Just make an inch, and go too far—look, the Dragon Shoal is still a dragon!"
Sima Yuanxian ordered Wang Guobao's daughter, the noble concubine Wang Shi, to rush into the Huiyin Palace with a large number of maids and servants, and took away Jin Jin who was learning to write big characters under the guidance of Wang Shen'ai. Emperor An's reason was that "the queen's palace failed to give birth to a dragon child within a few years, and she couldn't discipline the palace outside, so she was ashamed to hold the phoenix seal".
Emperor Jin'an was snatched by such a large group of people and surrounded, he was startled instinctively, but he didn't dare to speak - since he was poisoned by Fu Hong last year, the residual poison entered his brain, and he became more timid and stupid weak.The king's god suddenly changed color with love—since the Jin Dynasty, no one dared to openly force the queen to hand over the phoenix seal by relying on the power of the foreign court!
"Your actions are tantamount to forcing the palace!" Wang Shenai said angrily in a cold voice, "One day the palace is still the queen, and the Phoenix seal must stay in the Huiyin Palace for one day! Even if the empress is abolished, it will not be Sima Yuan's turn." Be the master!"
Concubine Wang Guifei had given instructions earlier, and she did not back down at all, and pulled over Emperor Jin'an: "Your Majesty thinks that this concubine can't ask the emperor for an imperial decree to abolish the Empress?!"
Emperor Jin'an was like a puppet, he was at the mercy of others, so how difficult would it be to concoct an imperial decree?Fortunately, the royal seal has always been kept by the emperor's younger brother Langya King Sima Dewen, and any imperial edict must be read and sealed by him - but Sima Dewen has been suppressed by the powerful Sima Yuanxian and dare not lift it. He can give up his crown prince's guard of honor, but this time, in the face of their aggression, how determined is he to resist to the end?
Unexpectedly, Sima Dewen, who has always been weak, refused to hand over the imperial seal because he knew that once Sima Yuanxian dared to abolish the empress, he would not talk about abolishing the emperor and abolishing the prince.Sima Yuanxian didn't expect that this soft prince would dare to tremblingly and tremblingly go against his wishes this time, and suddenly he was furious, and planned to impeach Sima Dewen for his "immorality" by plotting all the officials to accuse him.
Although Sima Dewen himself was frightened to death and could not shrink back, some officials who were not used to Sima Yuanxian's wanton use of power and refused to be attached to the party formed a faction to compete with him in the court and refused to compromise.Sima Yuanxian is used to being domineering. In order to come to power, even his father's official position can be abolished at will. The usual method of dealing with these weak opposition parties is to eradicate them vigorously and vigorously.Within a month, dozens of officials in the Eastern Jin Dynasty were convicted for their words, and at least they were demoted from their posts, and at worst they were exiled. Suddenly, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which had just temporarily quelled the Sun En Rebellion, was once again bloody.
The door opened with a creak, and a bright blue figure flashed in. Xie Xuan, who was lying on the couch, didn't hear anything. He opened his eyes and calmly looked at the silk tent with pearls in a trance.
It wasn't until someone brought a pot of orchid soup in front of him that he rolled his eyes slightly, but it was still like a pool of extremely clear stagnant water.
It is not the first time that Qing Cong saw this face that resembled him but not in spirit, but he was still shocked by the shock. He quickly avoided his eyes and rolled up his sleeves for Xie Xuan: "Your Majesty, I will help you!" Wipe yourself."
The generation of famous generals who once scolded Fang Qiu on the battlefield could only let him push and turn around without any resistance, as soft as a puddle of mud.Qing Cong twisted a piece of handkerchief, and wiped it down carefully along his back—this body looked tall and tall, with well-proportioned flesh and bones, but it was full of scars after taking off the clothes, and every scar was a witness Over the past ten years, the flames of war have collected dust.
Basically, they are two-way people with him. Speaking of which, the King of the East China Sea really committed crimes.Qing Cong's movements froze for a moment, and he recalled the big turmoil a month ago.
As soon as the effect of the medicine faded that night, Xie Xuan woke up, and saw himself lying limp on the bed, with no internal energy in his body, not even the Mo Yang sword with him, and outside the courtyard, there were open flames and overlapping figures, all of whom were loyal to Sima Yuanxian guard.
He understood in an instant, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat—he really never imagined that Sima Yuanxian would be so bold and aggressive after he overthrew Xie Yan, the last leader of the Xie family!Although he has no position or nobility, he is still the head of the Xie family in Chenjun, how dare he! ?
He forced himself to calm down and think about how to get out, but Sima Yuanxian didn't know what kind of medicine he had given him, which made his muscles and bones numb and unable to move.
Just after Haishi, Sima Yuanxian pushed the door and walked in. As soon as he closed the door behind his back, the sound outside disappeared immediately. Xie Xuan knew that Sima Yuanxian's minions had not been withdrawn, and the quietness was just to avoid sweeping the place. The "Yaxing" of the uncrowned emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty.
Sima Yuanxian held the candlestick in his hand, leaned over and carefully looked up and down the motionless person, and then suddenly extinguished the flickering candle.He sat next to Xie Xuan under the moonlight, and smiled comfortably: "Sir, I am very familiar with his voice and smile, so why do you need a candle?" He took Xie Xuan's weakly hanging left hand, and put it to his lips for a kiss: " Or to put it another way, I don't care about how you were born. I have a lot of worlds, what kind of beauty do I want? It's more than looks, than figure. Why should I be obsessed with a man who has passed his [-]s for the past ten years? Sir, I know you are arrogant and arrogant, all of you Wang Xie’s children have such problems, and in the end, you are dragged down by this disease and become disabled and have nothing, so why bother?”
His infatuated eyes were like poisonous snakes, making goosebumps all over Xie Xuan's body, but Sima Yuanxian's next move broke his last trace of clarity.
"That's fine, if you haven't broken your arm and resigned, I don't know when I'll be able to get what I want!" Sima Yuanxian suddenly changed his face, tore off Xie Xuan's azure robe, leaned over and bit it hard. On his carotid artery!
He has waited for too long, expended too much energy, and if he doesn't vent, how can he do it!He already doesn't want to know the consequences of his reckless risk this time, and he doesn't know how long he can be obsessed with this man after he succeeds. He only knows that he loves him to the bone now, so much that he can't wait to swallow him whole. Only when you can get it can you have it!
The scorching lips anxiously devoured the hard skin under his body until his right arm was broken—Sima Yuanxian licked it up without hesitation, and sucked it tenderly and delicately—Xie Xuan suddenly shivered, Sima Yuan Apparently he didn't care, he had done countless experiments on the secret medicine presented by Wang Guobao, even if Xie Xuan had the skill before when he was not disabled, his inner strength would be stripped away like a cocoon.However, Xie Xuan's trembling began to become coherent and intensified, and turned into a trembling all over his body like an evil spirit. In the end, he didn't know where the strength came from, and suddenly sat up and vomited the filth all over Sima Yuanxian.
Sima Yuanxian, who was originally in high spirits, stared dumbfounded as if struck by lightning, as Xie Xuanfu vomited on the quilt until he finally had nothing to vomit, so he began to vomit out one mouthful at a time. Only then did Sima Yuanxian realize that something was wrong, he hurriedly held down Xie Xuan who was dripping wet, and shouted for medical correction.
The doctors in the West Mansion are even more skilled than the imperial physicians in the imperial palace, but they all shake their heads and do nothing about Xie Xuan's strange disease. Generally speaking, life is continued with ginseng soup.
However, Xie Xuan didn't drink water or rice these days, and he couldn't get it poured, and he didn't have any other symptoms, but he would vomit non-stop whenever someone touched him. There is no cure - Sima Yuanxian is naturally furious, the person he has not got, even God, don't even try to snatch him!He chopped off the head of the doctor who was in charge of the consultation, and he did not allow the people in the mansion to reveal anything to the public, and continued to search for famous doctors from the people. The whole palace was in a hurry, but it was still fruitless.
In the end, Wang Guobao gave an idea. Since Xie Xuan is going to be vomiting and diarrhea when he is awake, it is better to let him not be awake. No strength, no mind, and its medicinal or toxic properties are much stronger than the five stone powder that has been popular in recent years.
This powerful medicine really slowed down Xie Xuan for the time being, but he was either in a coma or had a seizure all day long, but Sima Yuanxian still failed to succeed, so he could only continue to use the medicine to suppress his internal strength, confining him day after day In the government, strict supervision.
After Qing Cong finished wiping, he bowed cautiously to Xie Xuan, and when he was about to step back, he heard him ask in a hoarse voice, "What's your name?"
Qing Cong hurriedly said: "The servant girl is called Qing Cong."
"This is Sima Yuanxian's name. How can such a good person be called a horse?" Xie Xuan's face was calm, but there was a trace of emotion in his eyes: "I asked about the original name."
Qing Cong smiled miserably: "The slaves have been sold in Goulan since they can remember, so they don't have any serious names, they are just called whatever the nobles like."
Xie Xuan was silent for a moment, then nodded weakly: "It's also a poor person."
Qing Cong was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Tsinghua's noble and well-known Xie Jiabaoshu would sympathize with such an Israeli servant.In fact, before Xie Xuan was imprisoned in the mansion, he was indeed a little jealous and unwilling-it was said that they were born similar, but their fates were as different as heaven and earth, until now he witnessed Xie Xuan's suffering with his own eyes. Falling from a high place in the sky, it may not be unhappy in his heart - he was disabled with a broken arm, lost his freedom, and was trapped between this square inch of heaven and earth all day long, which is as different from his previous situation, but no matter what kind of adversity Xie Xuan is in, he is always He was neither humble nor arrogant, nor arguing nor making trouble, and now... he is still called "poor".
Qing Cong hurriedly lowered his head: "Your maidservant will leave."
Xie Xuan nodded his head feebly, until he closed the door, he said again: "You seven-foot man is not an eunuch in the palace, so you don't need to call yourself a slave."
It wasn't until the room returned to silence and darkness that Xie Xuan breathed out a silent breath—although this Qing Cong was a few years old, he could still tell what kind of a living he had done.And these days he has been bedridden, and Qing Cong has been free to come and go and take care of him personally. It can be seen that Sima Yuanxian has a lot of trust in him, but he may not have taken the opportunity to mock him.He looked on coldly, although this person came from a lowly profession, he was not proud of being favored, and he made troubles in a flirtatious manner, perhaps, it was worth using.
Originally, Xie Xuan didn't like to deal with people of all kinds of religions. When he was in Xuancheng, he often couldn't understand someone who could completely lower his figure and chat with ordinary people who were traffickers and pawns. However, Ren Zhen waved his hand and said disapprovingly: " You have read a lot of books, don’t you hear the classics of ‘Meng Changjun’s cock crowing dog steals the letter’? There is no distinction between talents, as long as you read and use them, it doesn’t matter if they are scholars or dog slaughterers?” Xie Xuan was still stubborn at the time. Said: "Every time Master Ren sees someone, he has to spend a lot of money to find ways to make friends, but it is very tiring." Ren Zhen patted him on the shoulder carelessly: "Once the friendship bought with gold and silver reaches the moment of stake You can't count on it at all, don't think that poor people are short-sighted, sometimes they are as awkward as you, Wang Xie's children, and they are very energetic~" The last sentence was completely in need of beating, Xie Xuan couldn't bear to let it go Disappointed, he immediately kicked hard.
Thinking about it now, these trivial things are more like things in the previous life than the turbulent years on the battlefield.Xie Xuan struggled to raise his right hand, and struggled to caress the small paper bag hidden in his waist—it contained the Xianbei secret medicine "Yinhuan". He saw that Jiankang had seen Ren Zhen use it before, and knew its function The medicinal properties and toxicity complement each other, and it is very powerful when it sees blood.When he fell off his horse with an arrow in the outskirts of his eldest son, Murong Yong gave him the proceeds of healing.At that time, even though he was bleeding profusely, he still couldn't let it go for a moment, and he always carried this small packet of medicine powder with him, never leaving his body.That night he lost all his internal strength, he knew it was inevitable, in a hurry, he dipped his fingers into the powder and put it in his mouth - he didn't bother to think about the consequences, Sima Yuanxian had already killed him.If the first vomiting was unbearable but out of control due to the poison of the silver ring, then the second and third more serious seizures were intentionally caused by him-generally famous doctors in the south of the Yangtze River do not know the secret medicine of Xianbei, so naturally It is impossible to tell whether it is a poison or a disease, and there is no way to solve it.
However, whether it is to sit and wait for death or linger on, it is not something that Xie Xuan will do.
From that day on, Xie Xuan was still "deadly ill" and "difficult to recover from serious illness". Whenever Sima Yuanxian came back disappointed, he always had a conversation with Qing Cong. He didn't talk much, but the sentences pierced his chest. Looking at that person, it was the first time to deliberately make friends with someone he had dismissed.
He began to understand the changes in the external situation through Qingcong. He began to know that Sima Yuanxian was acting against the sky with his hands covering the sky. The more people became dissatisfied, Wang Gong, the current governor of Beifu who was far away in Jingkou, solemnly imposed a crime. Although he used the excuse of impeaching Wang Guobao, he actually pointed the finger at Sima Yuanxian, who was using power and stealing the country.
Sima Yuanxian has long been different from the past, and his answer to this is to stay in the middle and not to publish, and to denigrate the officials of the Wang Gong family who are officials in the court. Good at governing the country - people with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that after the two brothers Xie Xuan and Xie Yan, Sima Yuanxian must deal with Wang Gong, the governor of the Northern Mansion appointed by Xie Xuan, who is outside the army.As a result, the relationship between the imperial court and the feudal town became increasingly tense.
The Liu Mansion, which is hidden in the ordinary alleys, is no longer peaceful tonight.Several knights came galloping, the leader was dressed neatly, rolled off the saddle, threw the whip to the guards behind him, and said in a low voice: "Guard the street, and no one else is allowed to enter or leave!"
The one who opened the door was Liu Yu's wife, Zang Shi. Although she was not from a famous family, she was alert and prudent. Seeing that He Wuji, who was in an important position, came to visit in such a row at night, she knew that it was not a trivial matter, so she hurriedly welcomed her into the study, and then After brewing two cups of new tea, he took his servants and retreated far away, and went to the door to be on duty in person.
"Deyu, it's exactly as you expected!" He Wuji's eyes lit up excitedly, and before he could sit down, he said, "Fortunately, I listened to your words and often walked around the West Mansion. Today, a favorite of the King of the East China Sea, named Qing Cong, suddenly yelled. Stop me, who do you think? It was Xie Xuan who wanted to pass on the news to me! Afterwards, he asked me to bring out two kits, one for the governor of the king, and one for you by name!"
Liu Yu unwrapped the kit in a calm manner, and smiled: "Order me to go out of Beijing secretly, go to Jingkou, and assist Wang Gong." After that, he pointed to the other kit for Wang Gong: "Then that It is self-evident what is written in it - it must be an appeal to order him to raise troops! Xie Xuan is definitely not the type to resign himself to anything, he has judged the situation and endured it until now, all in order to wait for the most appropriate time to take the initiative to attack Sima Yuanxian , win in one battle!"
He Wuji smiled and said: "Once the Beifu army really revolts, the Yue soldiers and Wuyi camp that Sima Yuanxian relies on will not be enough. I never thought that Xie Xuan is a half-crippled man, and Sima Yuan Xian is so strictly guarded, and he can still buy people's hearts and act secretly! Fortunately, I heard you that day, and I didn't completely surrender to the king of the East China Sea and made trouble for him. Otherwise, how could I join the army with you? Only with soldiers in your pocket and money in your pocket can you be invincible! Let's leave the city immediately to see Wang Gong!"
But Liu Yu shook his head lightly again: "No. You still have to wait for the opportunity to enter the palace, meet the queen, and present this kit and the letter face to face. It is best to say that Dudu Xie's situation is as miserable as possible. If there is no accident, the empress will issue an imperial edict out of anger and apprehension—with the imperial edict in hand, you and I will no longer be rebellious officials and thieves who rebelled, but hard-working kings and heroes who have painstakingly rescued us. Be famous!"
He Wuji clapped his hands in praise, then turned around and left to set things up.Liu Yu went to the hall alone, and slowly drank the remaining tea in his hand: He didn't believe what he had thought, Xie Xuan didn't think about it, he must be playing the mouse, considering that the queen was trapped in the deep palace, he didn't want her to be involved in this battle , and made Sima Yuanxian unfavorable to her.But he doesn't care, he only wants the final victory!
In the autumn of the second year of Long'an in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Wang Gong, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Mansion, raised troops in Jingkou under the Queen's order, and swore to serve the king with the eight major crimes of Sima Yuanxian, the king of the East China Sea, "dividing the emperor and empress, causing trouble in the palace, controlling the government, and becoming increasingly disobedient".The whole journey was invincible, and most counties even opened their doors to welcome the surrender. In less than half a month, the army arrived in Guazhou, and the soldiers pointed directly at Jiankang, causing the court to tremble.
