Sima Yao pondered for a moment, finally not blinded by the momentary hatred.
"No matter what, Xie Xuan still has to rescue Xiangyang. Apart from his Beifu soldiers, there is no other better option nearby."
"In this case, I will personally write to Xie Xuan and give him a promise. As long as Xie Xuan goes to support Xiangyang, the imperial court will support him with one hundred thousand shi of food and grass."
Sima Daozi almost gasped for breath, what the hell!
The imperial court ordered Xie Xuan to go to war, and the imperial court had to provide food and grass and pay back 100,000 dan. Isn't this justified?
Yuan Yuezhi could not accept this decision and immediately retorted: "Your Majesty, there is no problem in funding food and grass, but one hundred thousand dan is too much!"
"Brother is confused, how could it be possible for him to get so many benefits?"
"If you want me to see it, let him go. If he doesn't go, it's best to deal with him through military law!"
Sima Daozi was impatient and had no patience to tangle with an old fox like Xie Xuan. In his opinion, all the ministers in the court worked for his Sima family.
If this person is careless and disobedient, then just change him. In this world, are you afraid that you can't find a minister who is willing to do something?
Just like Yuan Yuezhi in front of me, he is a very good example.
To sum it up, Yuan Yuezhi and Xie An are from the same hometown, and they are both officials' sons who came from Chen County. However, after coming to Jiangzuo, the Xie family suddenly emerged. In comparison, the Yuan family was much more lonely, and even
It can't be considered a first-class wealthy family.
This can also be understood why Yuan Yuezhi is now actively getting closer to Emperor Sima and making suggestions.
In the final analysis, it's all just an exchange of interests.
As Sima Yao himself said, if Sima wants to control the imperial power, he must have people who are willing to work for him. Moreover, in order to suppress the power of the aristocratic family, such helpers cannot come from big aristocratic families.
This gave Yuan Yuezhi, a descendant of a lost family, the possibility to make progress. Therefore, Yuan Yuezhi is jumping up and down so actively now in order to break the balance of the court and try to change the situation in which several major families divide the power of the court.
Many behaviors are very radical, and can even be said to be provocative, but behind this provocation is also mixed with the endorsement of the Sima family.
If you are released as a vicious dog and bites an aristocratic family to death, you will be fine!
"It doesn't have to be like this, Yue Zhi, you still have to write the reply like this. You have to give Xie Xuan some sweetness. Otherwise, why would anyone bother to help?"
Yuan Yuezhi reluctantly agreed and exited the hall. After he left, Sima Daozi's true face was revealed.
He pushed all the wine glasses on the table to the ground, making a clanging sound, and he stared at the air fiercely.
If Sima Yao hadn't been the emperor, maybe he could have brought Sima Yao up and scolded him.
Stupid!
So stupid!
"Brother, one hundred thousand shi of grain is just given to Xie Xuan. His Xie family is the richest in the world, but he still wants to rip off the imperial court!"
Sima Yao was speechless and choked. His younger brother was still too young. He had energy but lacked patience. For Sima Yao, Daozi was a very good knife. Based on the common interests of the Sima family, today's Daozi was almost wherever Sima Yao pointed him.
Just poke wherever you are, and those who are obedient are not good enough.
However, while it is easy to use, Sima Yao also has to tolerate Daozi's anger.
"You think too simply. Xie Xuan didn't intend to rip us off. On the contrary, this time, since he asked, I have to give him a rip-off."
Sima Yao clasped his hands and rolled his eyes a few times. As soon as Daozi saw him like this, he knew that he had a solution.
He quickly came over and said happily: "Brother, do you have any other tricks?"
"That's natural. We promised to give him 100,000 dan, but we didn't say we would deliver it all at once. Let Yuan Yuezhi do this. Just give him 10,000 dan first, and we don't have to keep the rest.
"
Sima Daozi's eyes widened. How could he still do this?
Why didn't he think of it?
“That’s great!”
"Brother is indeed very cunning!"
Sima Yao picked up the wine cup and smiled with satisfaction.
When it comes to strategy, of course he, as the eldest brother, is better. Who says that everything promised must be fulfilled?
A ten-for-one promise, it’s already very difficult for the poor Sima family, Xie Xuan should be wiser. If he doesn’t go to the rescue now, does he want to sit back and watch Xiangyang be completely lost?
"Daozi, tomorrow is Xie An's birthday, you and Yuan Yuezhi must go to congratulate him."
Sima Daozi raised his head, with a confused expression on his face.
"Your Majesty, I can go, but Yue Zhi can forget about it. He and Wang Xie's family won't deal with him, and Xie An doesn't necessarily want to see him."
Sima Daozi is a magical person. His IQ always goes up and down sometimes. Just like now, he is actually worried about Yuan Yuezhi's popularity.
Sima Yao smiled happily: "I know this, just let him find something unpleasant!"
As the saying goes, if my son makes a mistake, I will bear it. If your son makes me unhappy, I will let you, old man, reflect on it.
"There is one more person we need to pay attention to." Sima Yao suddenly changed the subject, his expression very serious.
"who?"
Sima Daozi thought carefully for a while, and there was no suspicious person within his sight.
"Wang Mi, Wang Zhiyuan!"
With these words, Sima Yao's expression changed. Daozi clapped his hands and laughed: "I didn't expect that the eldest brother has been guarding against him!"
"I feel relieved now!"
Sima Daozi stroked his heart. Just now, he was still worried that Sima Yao would really go easy on Wang Mi just because of his handsome little face.
From this point of view, Yuan Yuezhi's mission is also very clear. Sima Daozi only needs a little guidance, and I believe Yuan Yuezhi will do it well.
