"Don't get me wrong, I'm not that kind. I just think it's completely unnecessary for Aning to do this." Wang Mi said with a smile.
Is it possible that Wang Gong still has the idea of creating a wise king and holy master and is training Sima Yao?
Don't be ridiculous, Sima Yao is just a middle-aged man, he will never become a big figure!
"Of course it's not necessary!"
"Why are you so sincere? Your Majesty can come whenever you want. As a minister, you only need to wait quietly in the main hall." Thinking of this, Wang Xun walked even slower.
He was not even in a hurry, and ended up in the last row like Wang Mi.
Wang Mi did not expect that Wang Xun would be so thoughtful.
He originally thought that Wang Xun, as a calligrapher, wanted to get involved with powerful officials such as Wang Gong, just to be able to guide the country in the court.
"I didn't expect you to be quite thoughtful." Wang Mi sighed.
"If you want to live in the Jin Dynasty, of course you have to think liberally."
"The government is in chaos, and no one is really working hard to revive the government. You won't tell me. At least I'm just trying to find a place to stand in this troubled world."
Wang Mi never expected that Wang Xun would express such deep emotions, and he felt a little embarrassed.
"Dharma protector, you don't have to be so sad. As long as we work together, there is still a lot to be done for the government."
Wang Xun glanced at him with great disdain.
Even Wang Xun, a scholar, believed that the Jin Dynasty was terminally ill and hopeless. Moreover, he simply did not believe that a man as wise as Wang Mi would really be willing to sacrifice his life for a mediocre person like Sima Yao.
.
hehe……
Stop lying!
Who knows what kind of bad ideas he has in his belly.
Regardless of who has bad ideas or who is a rare gentleman, the first difficulty of today's meeting is clearly in front of everyone's eyes.
If you can’t get past this hurdle, don’t talk about anything!
"I respectfully invite your Majesty to come to court!"
Wang Gong walked forward aggressively, not paying attention to the movement behind him. He just relied on the sound of everyone's footsteps to roughly judge that there were more and more followers.
It's really exciting!
Very good!
The more people who cheered, the more excited he became.
Of course, Wang Gong was not that exaggerated. He dragged a group of ministers to forcefully break into the emperor's palace, which also required a little courage.
Of course, there is also a little bit of luck.
There is strength in numbers, so even if we get into trouble, everyone will bear it together.
such a pity!
Sima Yao refused to give him this opportunity.
When Wang Gong came to the dormitory in high spirits, he found that the door was closed tightly and a bunch of young eunuchs were standing outside the palace door.
With them guarding it, it would be impossible for Wang Gong to break in even if he wanted to.
Even if he can't get in, he won't give up.
He immediately stepped back and took the next best step, leading a group of courtiers and bowing down respectfully in front of the bedroom door.
It's not that Sima Yao didn't get up, it's just that he was in no mood to go to court because the beauty was in his arms.
Across the hall door, Pei Jiao'er was sitting on Sima Yao's lap. She was rubbing her legs vigorously when she suddenly heard Wang Gong and the others' calls and almost fell to the ground.
"what happened?"
"Who is making a noise outside the palace?"
Being frightened like this, Sima Yao was not in the mood to continue. He jumped up, only to find that the eunuch Yuan Bao whom he relied on the most was not around.
"you go!"
"Let's see what's going on."
He waved his hand and casually dispatched a young eunuch, while he found a seat and sat upright, with no intention of immediately meeting the needs of the ministers and going to court.
"Yuanbao, Your Majesty is going to court soon. Why are you so anxious?"
When the young eunuch came out of the palace and saw Yuan Bao, he naturally started talking to him and ignored Wang Gong and others at all.
There is nothing we can do about dividing people into groups.
"All the ministers have arrived. I hope Your Majesty will come out soon."
If you ignore me, I can take the initiative. Wang Gong is not that kind of person. Before Yuan Bao had time to speak, he had already taken over the conversation.
"Wang Danyang, have you forgotten all the courtesy between a monarch and his ministers? Are you ordering His Majesty to come out quickly?"
In other words, eunuchs are the most loyal little dogs around the emperor. You see, before Sima Yao said anything, these dogs had already jumped up to defend his authority.
"What are you talking about? Our loyalty to the country is all for the sake of the government. How can we ever be disrespectful to His Majesty?" Wang Gong's chief general, Xi Hui, who has never suffered a loss, is still hesitating on Wuyi Lane.
, Although Yin Zhongkan was new to Jiankang, his speech was quite orderly, making it difficult for people to make mistakes.
This little eunuch was not someone to be trifled with, and was far less easy to get along with than Yuan Bao. Behind Wang Gong, Wang Mi, who had been chatting in the back row, also pulled Wang Xun forward to observe the situation.
"Since all the courtiers regard His Majesty as his leader, they should stand obediently in the Xianyang Hall and wait for His Majesty to come to court."
"It's noisy and knocking on the door. This is not forcing. What is forcing?" The little eunuch refused, as if he had received the Shang Fang Sword personally given by Sima Yao.
How did he know that even if there was such a sword, it might not be easy to use in Sima Yao's hand.
Where does the little eunuch's confidence come from?
It was from the palace door that had never been opened. No one knew the situation in the dormitory better than him.
Sima Yao was clearly awake, but he still refused to go out. He knew exactly how the little eunuch behaved here.
This shows that Sima Yao also resents the ministers gathering to make trouble at the door of the dormitory.
At this time, he just needs such a loyal dog to cheer for him.
"My father-in-law, can you allow me to say a word?"
Yuan Bao is no longer reliable. Sima Yao inside the palace gate has already made such a judgment. Logically speaking, if the ministers are making trouble, he, the chief eunuch, should stand beside the young eunuch and defend Sima Yao.
However, the situation just now was already very clear.
Yuan Bao stepped aside without saying a word. His position was very problematic. At least it showed that he remained neutral between the ministers and the emperor.
This obviously does not conform to the common sense that eunuchs depend on the emperor for survival.
At this time, Wang Mi, who knew how to seize the opportunity, stepped forward and planned to break the deadlock.
"Wang Shilang, what do you have in mind?" Seeing that he had gained an advantage, the young eunuch immediately became arrogant.
Tsk tsk...
Such an arrogant person would never be able to survive in the Jin Dynasty where there were many aristocratic families.
"I don't dare to take it seriously. I just wonder if His Majesty is ill because he has not come to court for so long. As ministers of the Jin Dynasty, we can't help but be a little worried."
"Wang Danyang has a straightforward personality. He thought His Majesty was in poor health just now, so he was anxious."
After twisting and turning, the final destination turned out to be to excuse Wang Gong. There was a burst of discussion among the officials.
Words such as repaying evil with kindness and tolerance and generosity kept popping up. The fact that Wang Gong and Wang Mi, two friends, parted ways midway was no secret in the Jin Dynasty.
Now, Wang Mi had made a gesture first. This time, even Wang Gong had to admit that Wang Mi was a good friend.
She cast a grateful look at him.
"Your Majesty is in good health. There is no need to worry, Minister Wang. However, the morning court meeting will have to wait a little longer."
This is the case for this person. If you have a good attitude, my attitude will naturally be acceptable. If you are arrogant, I will be a hundred times more arrogant than you.
The little eunuch was not completely unreasonable. Seeing Wang Mixiao's kindness, his tone naturally softened a lot.
"Still waiting?"
"If we wait any longer, the sun will be three poles higher!"
The sound was not loud, but it was enough to reach Wang Mi's ears. Needless to say, it was exactly what the impatient Tan Pingzhi was complaining about.
Of course, he, a low-ranking young general, had no business speaking in front of the Xianyang Palace. As expected, as soon as his words came out of his mouth, he immediately attracted the sideways glances of the courtiers.
Fortunately, in order to prevent the situation from escalating, the ministers did not have the same experience as him. He was just a military commander. He didn't know where he came from, so why should he be angry.
Wang Mi rubbed his hands. Although he didn't agree with Tan Pingzhi's method of doing things, he also agreed with his point of view.
Wait a minute, Sima Yao is too lazy!
Besides, is Xiao Pei still in the room?
With this little goblin here, Sima Yao wouldn't be able to come out even if it was dark, let alone noon. Instead, he would become less and less energetic and probably wouldn't even be able to get up!
However, with Sima Yao's lazy personality, it seems unrealistic to force him to come out.
After all, he is the emperor, and he still has a little bit of authority. If you can't speak out, you don't have to speak out. What can you do?
You, Wang Gong, are not Xie Xuan. You don’t have any soldiers in your hands at this time. Do you think Sima Yao will be afraid of you?
Therefore, from the moment he opened his mouth, Wang Mi had no intention of taking the same approach as Wang Gong.
Isn't it the same as going to court? It's not the same everywhere.
"If you find it convenient, father-in-law, you might as well report it, and we ministers will go into the bedroom to meet His Majesty."
"There are really urgent matters, so I can't do it without reporting it. I would like to ask my father-in-law to make it easier for me."
Wang Zhiyuan, what is he doing?
Hearing Wang Mi's words, Xi Hui, who arrived later, immediately raised his eyebrows.
Why is the speech so groveling?
Still faced with a eunuch!
It is really unreasonable that the children of aristocratic families need to lose face!
Xi Hui has always been a arrogant and stubborn person. Let alone the eunuch, even the emperor of the Sima family, he has never looked down upon.
Just as he was about to have an attack, Wang Gong caught him and said, "Don't worry, you don't understand the situation. Let's take a look before talking."
Wang Mi's words gave Wang Gong a wake-up call.
What is the top priority now?
Of course I met Sima Yao!
It is to resolve all those delayed court affairs!
Does the specific location matter?
Does it matter whether Sima Yao came out to see them or whether they went to the dormitory to see him?
None of it matters!
Wang Mi's method was the safest. Even the tricky little eunuch agreed unconsciously. He turned back and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the ministers want to come to the palace to see you."
His voice was loud enough to ensure that Sima Yao could hear him.
Wang Gong and others' hearts were in their throats again. This was the last resort. If Sima Yao still refused to go down the slope, today's court meeting would be completely ruined.
As for the next time I see Sima Yao, I don’t know when it will be.
After a moment of silence, when Wang Mi, who had always been optimistic, felt a little disappointed, a familiar voice finally came from the palace door.
"Let them in!"
Sima Yao agreed!
The courtiers were immediately excited. Before the palace door was opened, they lined up and planned to file in.
However, the Jin Dynasty had such a small advantage, and it never let go of seniority.
"Xie Gong is here!"
"Everyone, make room for Mr. Xie and let him go in first!"
This Xie An really didn't come early or late, but he came when everyone had made preparations and the queue was particularly harmonious.
While others were standing, he still had to sit in a small sedan. When he arrived in front of the palace, Xie An finally got off the sedan and walked. His steps were very slow, but he stood in the first row naturally.
Some people were surpassed by him, while others consciously avoided him.
how?
The noble Lord Xie has come to court. What else do you have to struggle with? Of course you should consciously avoid it!
It was already a great honor to not invite them to carry the sedan together!
Behind Xie An was his loyal brother Xie Shi. However, after Xie An got off the sedan, the first target he found turned out to be Wang Mi.
I saw him happily walking to Wang Mi's side with a smile on his face.
"I've met Mr. Xie."
Thinking of his engagement with Xie Minghui, Wang Mi became entangled. Should he be able to call his father-in-law, or should he not?
After much deliberation, in the end, like all the courtiers, I still praised Xie An and said thank you to settle the matter, although Xie An did not show any dissatisfaction.
But he took the initiative to approach Wang Mi, which was enough to show his attitude.
"Did you hear that?"
"Xie An has recruited Wang Zhiyuan as a good son-in-law!"
The drama in front of the palace went on for several days. There were no ministers in the court who didn't know about it. However, they didn't find a suitable occasion to talk about this topic openly.
This time, he took the opportunity to tease Wang Mi vigorously.
"You are brave enough!" Someone pointed at Wang Mi.
"Maybe we will get divorced in a few years!" Some people were more direct.
The discussions among the courtiers plunged the two Jingkou brothers into many doubts.
As comrades-in-arms, they certainly knew that Wang Mi and Xie Minghui had been in contact for a long time, and they also secretly guessed that perhaps this pair of descendants of a wealthy family would get together.
But, divorce?
Where to start?
No wonder Liu Yu and the others were confused. They lived in Jingkou all year round and were just ordinary people in the countryside. How could they know about the intrigues in the imperial court?
They had never heard of Xie An's glorious deed of ruthlessly breaking off a marriage, and of course they would not understand the ridicule towards Wang Mi.
Although it was indeed a bit embarrassing, Wang Mi still went his own way and did not take the courtiers' words to heart.
He firmly accepted Xie An's overtures. Before he captured the Beifu soldiers, it was necessary to maintain a good relationship with Xie An.
What's more, it was Old Man Xie who took the initiative, so he had no reason to avoid it.
The palace door opened, and the palace maids and eunuchs came out first, while Sima Yao's figure was hidden behind them.
After all, it is the emperor's palace. Even though it is not spacious enough, it still has all the necessary furnishings.
This was the first time Wang Mi broke into Sima Yao's palace, and he was really curious.
There were also some ministers, those who did not attend the banquet at Wang Gong's Mansion. Although the number was not large, there were still a few of them.
I have long heard that there is an infinitely gorgeous and beautiful girl beside Sima Yao, named Pei Jiaoer. Ever since she entered the palace, her eyes have not been restless.
I glanced here and there, searching everywhere for Pei Jiaoer's beautiful figure.
However, after searching, I found nothing.
Pei Jiao'er is not stupid. She came to the palace with a purpose. She worked hard to please Sima Yao.
I've avoided it a long time ago.
The ministers who followed behind sighed sadly when they didn't see the beauty, feeling that they had no strength to walk.
