This guy!

"My brother wrote a letter and ordered Wang Zhiyuan and Huan Chong to return to Jiankang together and report the matter to the court in detail."

"Logically speaking, they are very tired after fighting fiercely on the front line for a long time. Now that the war has just ended, it is indeed inappropriate to let them return to Jiankang."

"However, attacking Nanyang was not in the imperial court's plan. Recently, neither Beifu nor Jingzhou have any intention of a Northern Expedition. Their claims are really unbelievable. To be on the safe side, I think we should let the two

The Lord will explain the situation of the war in detail."

"That's right."

Things didn't go well, but I found a pretty good excuse.

I’ve been thinking about it for a long time, thank you for your hard work!

"If that's the case, then who should guard Nanyang City?"

Most people would not accept Sima Daozi's explanation easily, but Sima Yao let it go easily.

Is it because he still trusts Sima Daozi, or is this something he did deliberately?

A jade Ruyi was held in Sima Yao's hand, his left hand turned to his right hand, and his right hand turned to his left hand. It seemed to be a symbol of power, and it seemed that he was also holding Sima Daozi firmly in his hand and controlling it.

The more Sima Yao smiled, the weaker Daozi felt.

As we all know, a thief has a guilty conscience.

Cold sweat broke out uncontrollably on his forehead: "Huan Yi is also in Nanyang City. With his ability, he is enough to take on important responsibilities."

He actually found a suitable candidate, thank you for your hard work!

"So good!"

"I was just about to meet General Huan. Suddenly, he has not returned to Jiankang for several years. He is also old. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we might as well let him rest in Jiankang for a while."

"Huan Yi is also from Qiaojun. With him guarding Nanyang, I think General Huan will feel at ease."

"alright!"

"Go for it!"

"That's how it will be done."

Just... do it this way?

Did you actually get by like this?

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Even Sima Daozi couldn't believe it. Did he go too far and make the petty Sima Yao angry?

"If Your Majesty feels that it is inappropriate to recall them, I can quickly retrieve the decree and hand it over to Your Majesty."

"The messenger who delivered the message just left the city in the morning. If we go out of the city now to chase him, we should catch him soon."

"No need!"

"Daozi, you did a good job."

"The way to be a king is to control others first. You must have your own method. Look, you have only been doing things for me for a few days and you are already in shape."

"Remember, no one can trust the king."

"Okay, you should go back home and rest. We will quietly wait for the two generals to make their triumphant return. When the time comes, we will throw a big banquet to entertain them."

banquet?

right!

and this!

Sima Daozi suddenly became angry, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has just come out of seclusion, and it has been really hard these days. Why don't you go to my brother's house, and I will prepare a banquet for everyone, so that everyone can have a good time?"

Eating and drinking a lot, I love it the most!

Why wait until they come back? Isn't it good now?

Wouldn't it be better to eat it once this time and wait until Huan Chong and the others come back to eat it again?

Sima Daozi was full of expectations and planned to give his elder brother a little sweet taste. Unexpectedly, when Sima Yao heard the word banquet, he was not as excited as he imagined.

"I won't go to the palace."

"I have been thinking a lot during these days of retreat in the Xianyang Hall. Since I have given you the position of Minister of the Six Articles, I should let go and let you do things."

"You are young, and the courtiers are often disobedient. Only if you do more and make achievements, will they gradually obey your orders."

"The talents of our Sima family are withering away. We have been oppressed by the family over the years. Now, you are the only one left by my eldest brother's side. Daozi, you must live up to your expectations!"

While speaking, Sima Yao had already taken Sima Daozi's hand and squeezed it tightly. Daozi felt panic in his heart: "This responsibility is really too heavy, and I can't bear it!"

"Besides, my eldest brother is in the prime of his life. If my eldest brother is in need, I will help him. I cannot leave all the important responsibilities of the court to my brother."

Sima Yao smiled slightly, like a fox. Sima Daozi felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

As the saying goes, if you take something in advance, you must give it in advance.

Sima Yao's move was quite vicious. He had not lived in the Xianyang Palace for five days in vain, but he actually suppressed such a vicious idea.

Don't you like to take power?

Don't you want to be emperor?

Very good!

I will bring this opportunity to you. If you don’t want to take it, that’s okay.

"Daozi, there is no need to be humble. My elder brother knows your ability. You can definitely control the government. Besides, I don't leave everything to you. You try to take care of it first. If there is anything you don't do well, tell me."

If something goes wrong, my elder brother will help you."

"But this..."

Happiness came so quickly that Sima Daozi couldn't accept it for a while.

Everyone is greedy for power, but now Sima Yao keeps saying that he wants to hand over at least half of the power to him. Is this reasonable?

is it possible?

"No buts!"

"You can do it, brother, I believe in you!"

Ever since he held Sima Daozi's hand, Sima Yao has found the feeling. He can speak more eloquently and act more realistically.

Not to mention the confused Sima Daozi, even the clever little ghost Wang Mi standing here would probably have to think for a while before he could figure it out.

"Your Majesty, I can't do this!"

"Brother Chen is too young and has no experience. He really can't do it!"

"It's better to wait a few more years until my brother has experienced and matured, and then we can discuss it again."

You see, you were given a chance, but you didn’t dare to take it.

Not interesting.

After a dispute, in the end, Sima Daozi of course failed.

He slowly walked out of the hall with a lot of questions. Looking at his leaving figure, there was a sense of listlessness.

Why would someone like Sima Yao, who is obsessed with power, suddenly be so generous?

Did he find any clues?

Someone must be chewing the back of his tongue behind his back!

definitely is!

Sima Yao must have heard some rumors to become so weird.

That’s right!

That must be it!

Sima Daozi took a big step and found the target.

Wang Guobao!

It must be this guy who leaked the news!

See how I deal with him!

"Yuanbao, go and call Dr. He. I want to talk to him." Dr. Guozi beside Sima Yao has now changed from He Wuji to He Mai.

Maybe this is some kind of magical magnetic field. Around Sima Yao, there are many people who accompany him in his daily lectures.

There are people of all ages and origins.

However, only the two brothers surnamed He were the most favored by Sima Yao, especially the newcomer He Mai, who was even more powerful.

Every time I chatted with him, Sima Yao was in a good mood. He behaved appropriately, had a round face, and was very lovable. He also had a small mouth and spoke nicely.
