Sima Teng, the Prince of Dongyan, was slowly counting the gold, silver, and jewelry in his treasury. There was no need to light the lamp. The egg-sized luminous pearls lit up the treasury. The light of the various jewels was so blinding that people could not open their eyes. The old steward eunuch followed behind Sima Teng and said anxiously,"" Your Majesty, the soldiers are complaining a lot outside. Their pay is not enough every time. Many soldiers have contracted the epidemic and have no money to treat it. If this continues…"
"How dare you! Do you want me to serve them well every day? If it weren't for me, they wouldn't even be able to put on their clothes. How dare they complain?？!!! This king has no hope of becoming emperor. Who knows about my grievances in such a broken place like Ye City?？!!!”
Sima Teng's heart was burning with anger. After cursing, he still looked like he was gritting his teeth.
The old eunuch looked at Sima Teng, whose shoulders were shaking in anger. He hesitated for a moment and said softly,"" The traitor Ji Sang and Jie Ren Schleswig have killed the Governor of Wei County, Feng Song, under the banner of avenging Sima Ying, the King of Chengdu. According to the scouts, they are heading for Ye City. If there is a mutiny at this time…"
Sima Teng turned around and said angrily,"They even rebelled?"？？!!!”
However, Sima Teng's pale face also showed some fear. After a while, he looked at the old eunuch and asked,""So fast? Feng Song, this trash. Sigh, go take out those old rags and give them to the soldiers. Give each of them an extra liter of rice.。。。。。Use a small bucket to fill the rice…"
The old steward eunuch sighed inwardly, thinking to himself," You're still like this at this time. One liter of rice is finished in two days. Those cloths are already rotten. Who will work for you?"”
In May, Ji Sang marched straight into Ye City without meeting any resistance. When he reached Ye City, some soldiers even opened the city gates on their own accord. Sima Teng was killed by Ji Sang's general, Li Feng, when he was escaping.
When Ji Sang and Shi Lei arrived at Sima Teng's treasury and saw the room full of gold, silver, jewelry, silk, and satin, they unconsciously thought of the dilapidated city outside the manor, the commoners who starved to death by the roadside, and the skinny children. The two of them were speechless for a long time.
"Great General, look at how much we have plundered this time. Shouldn't we take a break and decide on our next target? "Haha!" Schleswig laughed heartily as he said," Great General, the world is in chaos now. Look, although we're using the banner of Sima Ying, the King of Chengdu, no one believes us. I heard that Sima Ying's grave is in Ye City…"
" Dig them out and offer them to the dead. Take them with you in the future. Report everything to this dead man so that no one can say anything. Let the troops rest and reorganize. Carry all these gold, silver, and jewelry into the truck. No one is allowed to touch them. I still have use for them…" Ji Sang's eyes were filled with greed.
Schleswig looked at Ji Sang's expression as if he wanted to keep it all for himself and felt a wave of disdain in his heart. As expected, he's not someone who can do great things. He's just a strong and powerful man…If one day I can replace him…
Records of the Historian: The fire in Ye City did not stop for ten days and ten nights. Ji Sang robbed wantonly in the local area and killed more than ten thousand officials and civilians...
Xuchang, Sima Yue Residence Meeting Hall
Sima Yue threw the military report that had just been delivered to the ground with all his might. His cold eyes looked at the generals and aides below and shouted," Sima Teng is messing with me!!" Now, Ji Sang and Schleswig are preparing to cross the river from Yanjin and head south to Yanzhou. If we lose Yanzhou, will our Sima Clan still have a foothold?？？!!! Sima Teng is messing with me! Sima Teng is messing with me!"
"Report! The Xiyang barbarians attacked Jiangxia!“
"Report! Deng Ding, a refugee from Qinzhou, attacked Hanzhong!”
The wind and rain were swaying. Everyone looked at each other. It seemed that the Sima Dynasty was becoming more and more unstable…
The soldier who passed on the military information handed over the document and left.
Sima Yue's face twitched continuously, but the color of blood slowly faded away. He seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden…
Liu Yu suddenly laughed loudly.
Sima Yue looked at Liu Yu with a dark expression, thinking to himself,'I'm already so upset, yet you can still laugh. How heartless!' If you can't tell me why, I'll teach you a lesson. I see that you've become familiar with Yueming recently. You've become younger, hmph! Sima Yue didn't say anything either. He just looked at Liu Yu coldly, waiting for him to explain himself.
Liu Yu cupped his hands towards Sima Yue and looked at everyone present. He stood up and said slowly,""My lord, I heard that Jiangxia Prefecture Governor Yang Min is a man of measure and ability to use people. Cavalry Governor Zhu Si has never lost a battle when he killed bandits. Why did the general always win when he attacked the bandits? General Zhu replied," Both sides should be patient when facing each other. The other party can't be patient, but I can. Therefore, I will win."”
Liu Yu continued," That's why I believe that the rebellion in Jiangxia will soon subside. There's nothing to fear about Ji Sang. My lord can send General Xun Xi to resist them between Pingyuan and Yangping. Then, my lord can go to Guandu personally. Not only can he be a backup, but he can also be kind to Yanzhou. If he can take the opportunity to obtain real power in Yanzhou and concurrently serve as the herdsman of Yanzhou, it's God's will for my lord to obtain actual control over the world. Moreover, I believe that with General Xun's strength, Ji Sang is just an ordinary person and is not a threat. Sima Teng's defeat was only because he was greedy and ungrateful, so there is no need to pay too much attention to him.”
Sima Yue's eyes lit up, and his expression slowly softened. He then looked at Liu Yu deeply and thought to himself, This person is not simple. He has the military of the world and the ability of the people of the various provinces in his chest. Suddenly, he felt a kind of indescribable jealousy or something else in his heart... Sima Yue pretended to be happy and said,"Qingsun's words are to my liking. What about the siege of Hanzhong?”
Sima Yue's every subtle change in expression did not escape Liu Yu's eyes. Liu Yu felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, thinking that it was really rare to have Liu Bei's unreserved trust like Zhuge Liang. He softened his tone and said," My lord, I'm afraid Hanzhong will be lost. I'm afraid Liang Province will be…"
Sima Yue was also shocked. Seeing that everyone was also whispering to each other and looking anxious, the frustration that he had suppressed previously surged up again. He immediately shouted,"Everyone, listen to Qingsun. Don't whisper!”
Everyone was speechless for a moment, and the entire meeting hall fell silent.
Liu Yu said," The governor of Liang Province, Zhang Yin, will definitely send the governor of Brazil, Zhang Yan, to attack. Zhang Yan is quite capable, but he is greedy. If it's just refugees rebelling, it's not a big deal. I'm afraid that Cheng Country will also participate. Then Liang Province will be in danger!"”
"What if I write a letter of divorce now and ask Zhang Yin to send someone else?”
" If we go to Hanzhong now, Zhang Yan should have already set off. If our letter arrives, and Zhang Yin is so headstrong, I'm afraid there will be chaos. Why don't we secretly send people to Nanzheng, which is beside Hanzhong, to defend? Even if Hanzhong is lost, as long as Nanzheng is still there, Liangzhou will not be in chaos. It will be too late to make a decision after my lord has destroyed Ji Sang.“
"Good! Where is Wang Zan?"
"I'm here!"
"I order you to quickly lead five thousand cavalry to the plains to help General Xun guard it. Tell him that my reinforcements will arrive soon. Go and count the rations, materials, and soldiers you need.”
"Yes, I accept your orders!"
Wang Zan turned around and was about to walk out of the meeting hall when Liu Yu grabbed him. Wang Zan looked at Liu Yu in confusion.
Liu Yu didn't know why he was pulling him, but he felt like he wanted to look at him more. He whispered,"“
the north wind stirs the autumn grass. the frontier horses have the heart to return. Hu Ning analyzed. I've been wasting my time until now.
the king's affairs are far from my will. far apart, I pass by Shang Can. in the past I went to the crows of the crows. now come the chirping of crickets.
people's feelings are nostalgic for their hometown. the birds wandering here miss the old woods. Shi Juan did not play for a long time. Who can express my heart?
Do you still remember this poem?"
Wang Zan's eyes were filled with excitement. He had written this because he felt that the country was in chaos and that he was depressed. Today, when Liu Yu read it out loud in the Grand Tutor's meeting hall, he was indescribably moved. He then looked deeply at Liu Yu and bowed to Sima Yue again. He turned around and walked out of the meeting hall without saying anything.
Liu Yu looked at his back and was speechless for a long time. He could finally take revenge and lead the army. He hoped that everything would go well. This man had backbone and ambition.
Sima Yue looked at the scene in front of him and felt quite heroic. After Wang Zan walked out of the meeting hall, Sima Yue said to the officials,"Everyone, get ready. In a few days, we will also send troops to Guandu. I want everyone to know that those who oppose me, Sima Yue, will not die a good death. As long as I, Sima Yue, am here, my Sima Empire will not fall!”
Late that night, Sima Yue strolled slowly in the garden of the mansion alone, with only a few attendants by his side. Whenever he was under too much pressure, Sima Yue liked to take a walk alone. He could think about his own matters and calmly think about the next path.
Just as Sima Yue was about to go back to sleep, he heard a child's voice. It was a girl's voice. Was it Ming Yue? Haha, I haven't seen this little girl for a long time. Why isn't she asleep yet? Why don't I go over and take a look?
Sima Yue slowly walked towards Ming Yue's courtyard.
I don't know why I couldn't sleep tonight, so I pulled Aunty Hong along to play around. When Aunty Hong saw that I was playing crazily, she would pretend to put on a straight face. However, when she saw me smiling and coming over to curry favor, she would laugh and play with me. It was a happy and harmonious situation, so she really didn't have any sleepiness.
Auntie Hong hugged me and said,"Ming Yue, go to bed early. Children have to be obedient. How can they be as naughty as you?"”After saying that, she used her finger to tap my little head. I didn't know if she was angry or blaming me. I looked at her in a daze. There was an indescribable warmth in my heart. I was satisfied and acted coquettishly in Auntie Hong's arms."Auntie Hong, I want to listen to a story. Tell me a story and I'll go to sleep, okay? Ming Yue was a good listener, and she listened to Aunty Hong the most, hehe ~”
Auntie Hong looked at my shameless appearance, but she couldn't get angry. She only felt very warm. The little gentleness in her heart was all given to this child who depended on her for survival. Auntie Hong coaxed me and said,"Alright, Auntie Hong will tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a mountain…there was a temple on the mountain…”
Oh my god, could it be that the most boring story of deceiving children in the modern era had existed since the Jin Dynasty? No wonder it could be circulated for so long. I still listened obediently. Although I knew the content, I still felt happy and warm just listening to Auntie Hong's voice. She was my only true family in this world. Ever since I was born, she had never left me. I slowly fell asleep, but I didn't know that someone was eavesdropping outside the room…
Sima Yue was eavesdropping outside the house. He was shocked. This little girl could already speak. Moreover, her enunciation was clear. She had grown so fast? Listening to the conversation between the master and servant, Sima Yue's face actually became calm. Once upon a time, he was just a child who acted coquettishly in his mother's arms. However, he was born in the royal family and had long forgotten about such warmth. Women loved him only because of his power and status. All he wanted was sex, venting, smooth skin, and a soft body.。。。。。
Sima Yue waited until the lights in the house went out before he slowly walked out of the remote little courtyard. He looked around at the simple furnishings. This little courtyard that was rarely visited usually, although it was used frequently, the people below were the most sensitive. He was busy with government affairs, and his family did not care much about him, let alone this little girl who he just wanted to play with. Although he had instructed to give her the best, However, it was only natural for snobbish servants to deduct the things of the master and servant. Little Red, the former imperial concubine's personal maid, had dismissed all the people she had arranged for her to go over. Although the life of the master and servant was simple, it was so warm. Sima Yue was actually a little touched. How good would it be if he was just a commoner's son?
Sima Yue shook his head. That was just an extravagant hope. If he stopped, he would be killed, so he could not have any reluctance or stay. Turning around to take a look at this small courtyard, Sima Yue went back and asked someone to investigate the servants who had embezzled Ming Yue's things. He killed a portion of them and from then on, no one dared to neglect this master and servant pair.
Could it be that Sima Yue had a little more affection for Ming Yue…
