It was at this time that Wang Gong's voice came in.
"Battle report in Xiangyang?"
"Finally some news?"
As a relatively responsible emperor (among all the failures in the Jin Dynasty), after hearing this news, Sima Yao could no longer focus on the wine table.
"Great victory!"
"Has Xiangyang been recaptured?"
"Ingots!"
"Let Aning come in quickly!"
This Yuanbao, such an important thing, how could he still block Wang Gong from entering?
When Wang Gong heard Sima Yao's voice, he immediately became more energetic. He opened the door and walked in. Why did he care where the cats and dogs were?
He hurriedly rushed to Sima Yao, but he did not forget to glance at Sun Tai.
A scheming careerist!
Wang Gong hated this person with all his heart. It was not a good thing for children from such low-level families to surround Sima Yao.
"His Majesty!"
"Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty!"
"Xiangyang City has been recaptured by our army!"
"Return to the embrace of my Da Jin!" Wang Gong was excited and his tone became more and more high-pitched. He handed the warm battle report to Sima Yao.
At this time, a commotion finally woke up Sima Daozi, who was unconscious after drinking.
"The battle was won?"
"Thank you for being so awesome, General!"
“It’s really awesome!”
"When these Beifu soldiers are in his hands, it's like a new team. They are invincible!"
Troublemakers are like this. Even if they are drunk, they still don't forget to stir up trouble.
"Your Majesty has important matters to discuss with the court, so I will leave now."
Sun Tai stepped forward to greet Wang Gong without even looking at him.
He is not stupid. It is obvious that Wang Gong does not welcome him, so why should he be an eyesore here. Although Sun Tai is eager to find out what the court is doing, he is not a brainless person.
At this time, you should turn around and leave.
Sima Yao held the battle report of Xiangyang City in his hand and danced excitedly. He had long forgotten that someone like Sun Tai existed in the hall.
He waved his hand and made him retreat without even raising his head.
Sun Tai left quietly, but he didn't feel much loss in his heart. Everything that happened today was already a major victory for him.
From the beginning, he was regarded as a heretic and could not even think of participating in the government affairs. But now, he can actually sit in the court hall openly and listen to military and state affairs.
If Sun Tai hadn't wanted to quit, he would have been able to hear the discussion at any time, and no one would have spoken to stop it.
Come to think of it, the day when Sun Tai stirs up troubles is not far away!
After Sun Tai left, Wang Gongcai sat next to Sima Yao.
Sima Yao still relies on this uncle, at least he is closer to him than other ministers in the court.
If Wang Zhenying can have a better relationship with Sima Yao, Wang Gong's status will be higher and he will be more important.
Wang Gong also regretted this very much.
I gave a girl to Sima Yao for nothing, but got almost no real benefits. If I had known better, it would be better not to go to all the trouble to get her into the palace, and it would be better to marry into a noble family.
"This Xie Youdu is getting more and more powerful!"
"one day one Night!"
"It only took them one day and one night to capture Xiangyang City!"
"good!"
"Very good!"
Sima Yao was really happy when he saw this battle report written by Xie Xuan himself. Although he wanted to break away from the shackles of the aristocratic family as soon as possible, he was also happy to see the success of the children of the aristocratic family.
As an emperor, he cannot be a mere commander.
Among the children of aristocratic families, those who can be promoted can also be promoted appropriately.
Xie Xuan is one of them.
“It’s really good.”
"This battle was so exciting!"
"This is a great victory!"
Wang Gong was particularly excited. For many years, the Jin army had not won such a hearty victory.
"Your Majesty, now that the Jin army is in full swing, should we take the opportunity to continue advancing north? Or should we call General Xie back temporarily and take a rest?"
According to Wang Gong's wishes, of course, he should take advantage of the strong morale to continue to forge ahead, but this matter cannot be decided by him alone.
Sima Yao took Xie Xuan's letter and read it carefully. Xie Xuan mentioned one point. He hoped to deal with the temporarily recruited soldiers.
When the army returns to Jingkou, they will disband the temporarily recruited soldiers in Jingkou. What does this mean?
Although Xie Xuan didn't explicitly say that he was going back to Jiankang to rest, he had already led his troops back to Jingkou. Jingkou was right at the gate of Jiankang. How could Xie Xuan not be allowed to come back?
"Aning, I'm afraid this matter is not something you and I can have the final say on."
Wang Aning's face suddenly turned dark.
What is this nonsense?
If I can't be the master, how can you still be the master?
Sima Yao had not expressed his position yet, but Sima Daozi spoke up first.
It's just that what he said was of course unpopular at all. Everyone in the hall was rejoicing that the Jin army had won a great victory.
He was the only one who questioned whether Xie Xuan's victory was fake.
What does it mean?
Does he still expect the Qin army to win?
Wang Gong's face immediately turned iron gray.
"It's not that the Qin army can't fight, it's that our army is too brave!"
"Your Majesty, the generals who led the battle against Xiangyang this time will all be rewarded. This is a great achievement!"
Sima Yao was in a dilemma. He was unwilling to pay attention to Wang Gong, but he had to express his stance.
Wang Gong didn't say much, but he asked him two questions in succession. These two questions happened to be things he didn't want to answer.
This uncle is really...
Every critical moment would make him extremely bored.
Whether Xie Xuan should continue to advance or return to the city, as Sima Daozi himself said, this is not a matter that he can interfere with.
How many times in history have the armies of the Jin Dynasty always returned when they wanted and fought whenever they wanted. When did the generals of the Jin Dynasty only obey the holy orders?
As for the reward, to be honest, Sima Yao didn't want to care too much.
"Aning, the reward is certain, but you can decide the specific matters, and I won't get involved."
"Or you can go to Xie Anshi and discuss it with him."
Taking charge of personnel appointments, promotions and other major powers is a power that every monarch should have. Which emperor would not want to firmly hold this power in his hands?
Will you not let go even if you live or die?
Could it be that since Sima Yao is an outlier among emperors, he doesn't want this power?
Of course it’s impossible!
It's just that the Sima family wants money but has no money, wants people but has no one, and their words don't count. The family can easily overturn Sima Yao's decision.
In this case, Sima Yao also thought about it. Before he fell into several big families, he could rely on them for these small things.
He let go.
