I saw the young apprentice coming out calmly, straightening his back, and said calmly: "Don't worry, Minister Wang, since the brothers have learned the craft from the Minister, they are already well prepared. If they can go to the battlefield and kill the enemy, that's right."
This is what we all want."
"No matter how many times you go through, you will never come back!"
"good!"
"What a success!" Wang Mi couldn't help but shout out, and encouraged: "As long as you have confidence, we will definitely defeat the enemy!"
"Restore the Central Plains!"
Wang Mi raised his arms and shouted, no matter what he said, he must make the atmosphere exciting.
The young apprentices also cooperated very well, and soon they became fascinated, as if they had drifted to the other side of the Yangtze River, drinking in the Central Plains!
Although what Wang Mi is saying now is just flattery, as a responsible general, he will never throw his brothers to die on the front line based on boasting.
First, when looking for a small-scale battle, the power of the pistol can be tested in practice. Secondly, through victory, the production of the pistol is once again put on the agenda.
However, before that, the more important thing is to make money.
Wang Mi has been waiting for an opportunity. Because of this, he joined Yuan Yuezhi's group again.
While drinking and drinking, we were trying to find out the news.
During this seemingly inconspicuous banquet, he got an unexpected piece of news, which, with a little use, could even affect the situation of the Jin Dynasty!
The most important thing is that it is very possible to make money!
With this mentality in mind, he is extremely looking forward to the upcoming grand meeting tomorrow!
I heard that even Xie Anshi, who has not shown up for a long time, is coming to participate!
On the other side, Duke Xie's Mansion in Wuyi Lane is only a few walls away from Prince Langya's Mansion, but what has been decided on Wang Mi's side has actually not yet been finalized in Xie's Mansion.
…………
"Brother, are you really going to Xianyang Hall tomorrow?"
The Da Jin family had a poor financial background and too little money, so that even if they wanted to expand the palace, they could only retain the original infrastructure and not build a new one.
Within the scope of Jiankang Palace, the place where Emperor Sima Yao lived and went to court was actually the Xianyang Palace and there were no separate halls.
It's true that the money is tight, and everyone knows that it's shabby, but yeah, it's very convenient.
At least, for Xie An, who is about to go to court, it is definitely a blessing to have few palaces and short distances. He, who has limited legs and feet, can stand on the palace without much effort.
Although as a senior minister and a powerful official of the generation, Xie An never had to stand when going to court, he could just sit.
Xie An smiled slightly, completely unable to understand his brother's worries.
"Of course I want to go!"
"Are you still afraid that I will be embarrassed?"
"No, no, brother, don't get me wrong. I never meant this." Xie Shi waved his hand hastily, fearing that Xie An would misunderstand.
Now in the Jin Dynasty, it is not that easy to make Xie An look embarrassed, but it is not difficult to make Emperor Sima Yao look embarrassed.
Just give him a jar of wine.
However, according to Xie Shi's speculation, it was just a piece of unverified news. To be taken seriously by Xie An and even attempt to go to the court to watch the excitement was really inconsistent with Xie An's calm and steady personality.
"Brother, even if Sima Daozi intends to usurp the throne, he will never implement it immediately. Isn't it too early for us to overthrow him now?"
Yes!
The news that came from Yuan Yuezhi's residence prompted Xie An, who had not liked to take a stroll in the court hall for a month, to frequently appear in Xianyang Hall recently.
Sima Daozi finally began to usurp the throne!
Still under the urging of Yuan Yuezhi!
How could Xie An not witness such a once-in-a-lifetime event with his own eyes?
He is already over sixty years old, and there is only one exciting thing to do, but one thing is missing. How can he give up so easily?
Moreover, he has concluded that Yuan Yuezhi, Wang Guobao and others will definitely not stand still at this court meeting.
They will definitely take action!
Xie An must experience such a major event personally in order to make the most accurate judgment. No one except himself is qualified for this task.
In addition, the next generation head of the Xie family has returned to his hometown of Jingkou overnight to take charge of the overall situation.
At the same time, Wang Mi's die-hard best friend and a rising star of the Beifu Army, Liu Yu and Liu Jinu, were also galloping non-stop on the road back to Jiankang City.
"Not early, not early at all." Xie An waved his hand and firmly rejected Xie Shi's opinion. Such decisiveness surprised Xie Shi.
"You don't know, although I don't have a close relationship with Sima Daozi, to be honest, I watched him grow up."
"I know his nature very well."
"Look at the errand of recording the affairs of the minister, which was handed over to him. Has he done anything serious these days?"
Xie An was right, Sima Daozi did not do anything serious, but Xie Shi felt that there was a reason for this.
We cannot blame Sima Daozi entirely for being lazy.
Xie Shi approached his brother and said hesitantly: "The key is that there have been no major events recently. Sima Daozi needs to make the decision."
"The Jingzhou army has captured Xinye City, but the evil beast of Di Qin has not come to help for a long time. The two sides have not reached the front and there is no war. There is no need for Sima Daozi to interfere."
Xie Shi's words were based on the reality of the Jin Dynasty.
In Dajin, the current distribution of power among aristocratic families has stabilized. What should be occupied and what should be grabbed can be said to have been achieved by each family.
There have been no generals who have passed away recently, and no high-ranking officials who have died suddenly. So, if you want to install your own people, there is no chance.
Wei Wei's position as governor of Jiangzhou is still a hot commodity.
Xie An has already thought of a candidate, who is naturally from the Xie family, but it is obvious that once this candidate is thrown out, it will definitely cause an uproar in the court.
You must know that Huan Chong and others fought bravely in Xinye City and won a great victory. They are worthy ministers.
It stands to reason that even if they are not given promotions or titles, they should at least be allowed to maintain their original sphere of influence.
However, Xie An wanted to transfer Jiangzhou to the Xie family.
This move will definitely cause a huge backlash from the Huan family in Qiaojun. If they are not angry, they will no longer have the surname Huan!
In the unstable situation of the Jin Dynasty, the only major events were wars and conquests. Only by stabilizing the borders could further development be planned.
As long as there is no war, there is nothing particularly important in the court.
It is understandable that Sima Daozi cannot show his strength.
Xie Shi always tried to be on the safe side when looking at things. Although he also saw that Sima Daozi was indeed a man of great ambition and talent,
But I don’t want to conclude prematurely that this person must be incompetent.
Contrary to him, Xie An, who was much older and usually advocated indifference and indifference, went against the norm and made a judgment on the upper limit of Sima Daozi's ability based on the common sense of looking at one's age at the age of three.
It can be said that it is quite accurate.
"Sima Daozi's ability is average, but his ambition is quite big. It can be said that even though this person is a highly respected official, he is already the highest position your Majesty can give him. However, I dare to conclude that he will definitely not
Will be satisfied."
"So, the information we have received is accurate. As long as there are people who support it, without their instigation, Sima Daozi will definitely respond as soon as possible."
"Just watch, before Di Qin comes in, the court will be in chaos."
Xie An was so confident that Xie Shi was speechless.
But he absolutely cannot agree that the topic ends here. He still has a lot of confusion about the future direction of government affairs.
"If they really want to push Sima Daozi to power, what can they do?"
"Whose strength do you want to rely on?"
"There has to be a reason!"
To be fair, the one sitting on the throne now performed fairly well among the many emperors of the Jin Dynasty.
It can be said that it is more than what is lacking and more than what is lacking.
At least, he can go to court when it is time to go to court and make decisions when it is time to make decisions, which is already very valuable.
What more could you ask for?
The courtiers were quite satisfied with this emperor. Xie Shi really couldn't figure out why Yuan Yuezhi and the others couldn't stand such a considerate and diligent emperor.
I actually want to replace him.
Could it be that just because Sima Daozi's princess was Wang Guobao's sister, he thought that as long as he promoted Sima Daozi to the throne, he could control the government like Wang Gong?
Yuan Yuezhi is also old, will he be too naive?
If he insists on going his own way, his end will be even more miserable than that of Wang Gong.
Although Xie An was not lucky enough to see their respective fates, he already had this prediction.
Wang Gong relies on Sima Yao. At least, Sima Yao has a normal mind and has unprecedented skills in handling government affairs. With such an emperor, you can cooperate with him as a minister.
However, Sima Daozi...
"If Yuan Yuezhi continues to encourage Sima Daozi like this, just watch, one day Sima Daozi will throw him aside!"
"I must go to court tomorrow to take a good look at the face of the new generation."
In an instant, Xie An was filled with fighting spirit. Over there, his good brother tried his best, but still couldn't shake him at all, so he had to throw away.
Choose to go to court with him.
…………
"I didn't expect you to really know kung fu!"
The next morning, when Wang Mi opened the door, he saw Shen Suanzi, dressed in a shirt and skirt, with a rare hairpin on his head, waving a long sword in the small yard.
"Is this still false?"
"Do you think I'm lying?"
Shen Suanzi raised his sword high and slashed downwards horizontally in a graceful manner. The whole movement was coherent, which was a feast for the eyes of Xiao Wang, who had just stood up and had not had time to wake up from his nap.
"How dare you, how dare you."
"I've never seen you show off your skills before, so I thought you didn't know how to do martial arts." Wang Mi approached with a smile. Within one foot of each other, he could even feel the sharp sword wind.
In front of Wang Mi's eyes, Chen Suanzi was panting from exhaustion after running for a while in the secret passage outside Xiangyang City that day.
At that time, Wang Mi really thought that this woman was only brave and had no martial arts skills.
"Of course I know Kung Fu, otherwise I wouldn't dare to enter Xiangyang City alone!"
Shen Suanzi did not put the sword into the scabbard, but picked up the handkerchief, faced the sun, and wiped the sword body, bit by bit, inch by inch, very carefully.
Since she is good at martial arts, there seems to be nothing wrong with having her with you often, and it may even be beneficial.
"Suanzi, don't you plan to dress up and follow me to Jiankang Palace?" Wang Mi suggested enthusiastically.
Shen Suanzi put on men's clothes and wore a sword. Although Shen Suanzi had not yet followed the instructions, Wang Mi could already imagine her heroic figure.
So handsome!
"Jiankang Palace?"
"You mean, the palace?" Shen Suanzi put down his beloved sword, blinked his big eyes, and immediately became interested.
To be honest, Shen Suanzi has lived in Jiankang City for a while, and she already knows a lot about many things here.
As far as the eye can see, although the street markets here are more lively, they are not much different from other cities.
Even the natural scenery is slightly inferior, mainly because there are too many people.
"That's right, it's the palace."
Seeing Shen Suanzi's excited expression, Wang Mi already knew. For the young lady, entering the palace is always a very exciting thing.
Even a woman like Shen Suanzi, who has made it her mission to travel around the world, is not exempt from vulgarity.
"It's just that if you wear this outfit, the palace door will not be open to you. It will be much easier if you pretend to be a man and my book boy."
Recently, Wang Shilang's reputation in the inner palace is not ordinary. Every time he enters the palace, he can bring three or five followers with him.
Inside the White Gate, everyone from top to bottom, from the palace maids to the young eunuchs, were all open to him and laughed whenever they saw him.
Shen Suanzi's mind immediately started to wander, and without saying a word, she jumped into the side room, took out her personal clothes, and quickly changed into them.
After a while, a handsome young man in blue appeared in front of Wang Mi again.
Shen Suanzi followed Wang Mi and saw that he was still calm and unhurried, and felt puzzled.
The two of them stood in front of the palace gate. The time to go to court had already passed, but someone didn't even get on his horse yet, looking very leisurely.
His eyes were still looking in the opposite direction to Jiankang Palace. Shen Suanzi was not overly concerned, but something must have happened.
"Are you waiting for someone?"
"Is there anyone else who will go to court together?"
Since Wang Mi decided to take her into the palace, it meant that he didn't want to miss today's court meeting. His eyes looking restlessly around like this meant that he was waiting for someone.
Could it be He Mai and the others?
impossible!
He Mai and others don't live in that direction either.
Wang Mi smiled happily: "Suanzi, you and I are becoming more and more in tune with each other."
"A telepathic connection?"
"What is that?" Shen Suanzi twisted her mouth and started thinking a lot, and concluded that she had indeed never heard of this word.
Wang Mi was stunned for a moment, a little disappointed that the girl Pingting in front of him could not understand such beautiful words.
What a pity, what a pity!
The imperial meeting had already begun, but Wang Mi had not taken any action. Of course, this was intentional.
He was indeed waiting for someone, and what was more, he was waiting for a guest who had come all the way from Jingkou.
Whether we can arrive in time depends on God’s will!
In today's court, if this person is by your side, it will be even more powerful!
Chen Suanzi, who didn't know what was going on, looked at the tips of his shoes and the sky from time to time. It was indeed getting late.
On Wuyi Lane, oxcarts and carts were gathered together. Many ministers, some whom Suanzi knew, some he didn't recognize, and some who could barely be identified, were all heading towards the Jiankang Palace.
Everyone else has already left, why isn't Wang Mi anxious?
As a person who has just made great achievements in Xiangyang City and received such a large reward from the court, among other things, it is always necessary to go to get off work on time.
Emperor Sima Yao is a lazy guy, you can't be lazier than Sima Yao!
Just when Wang Mi and Shen Suanzi were feeling anxious and nervous at the same time, suddenly a burst of smoke and dust rose from the end of Wuyi Lane.
Yellow dust instantly covered the sky. In the haze, Wang Mi immediately grasped the essence.
"Send a slave!"
"You finally came!"
Yes!
Liu Yu and Liu Jinu, who had been waiting for so long, finally arrived in Jiankang City!
He didn't come alone, he had an old friend with him!
