Qingyufang is the most famous music square in Luoyang, naturally it is the most famous gold cave, where there are groups of singers, beautiful women like clouds, and the business is very good.

But today there was a strange guest, who didn't watch the song and dance of the warbler, didn't appreciate the wind and snow, just drank stuffy wine, poured it into his stomach cup after cup, and was drunk.

To say that this is not a restaurant but a music shop, most of the guests who drink here are just for the pursuit of a mood, if you really spend money to buy drunk, why bother to come to this point?

It stands to reason that the guest spent money, and what he wants to do is the freedom of the guest, but the bustard Jiao Yueniang is a more eight-woman person, she is very curious about the behavior of the guest, it seems that the guest is dressed in fine clothes, and the children of Luoyang City are no different, the only difference is that the guest brought a few guards, the eyes are shining, sharp and neat, and they are all practicing family members at a glance.

The entourage guards of other sons and brothers are just here to decorate the façade, but the guards of this guest are hidden masters, which can't help but make Jiao Yueniang very curious about the identity of this guest, she deliberately wanted to get close to the guest, but was coldly blocked by the guard, and she couldn't even go to the guest's side.

Jiao Yueniang, a person who drinks stuffy, has also seen a lot, most of them are trapped by love, but this guest is obviously not, and the murderous aura revealed from his eyes is enough to make people shudder.

Jiao Yueniang was curious about the identity of the guest, but what she never expected was that the status of this guest was beyond her imagination, and if she really let her know, she would definitely be able to scare her.

That's right, the one who borrowed wine to drown his sorrows in Qingyufang was Sima Zhao, who had just returned to Luoyang from Huainan.

In fact, Dongxing's exercise of command power in this battle was the general Zhuge Dan of Zhengdong, who lost the battle, and should be mainly responsible for Zhuge Dan, although Sima Zhao was the supervisor of the army, but he was not very familiar with Huainan's military affairs, if he had to be also responsible, at most it would be a secondary responsibility.

After the defeat, Zhuge Dan, Wang Chang, and Hu Fen all wrote to the imperial court to ask for a surrender, and Sima Shi was magnanimous and took the initiative to take responsibility for the defeat, saying that he did not listen to the opinions of Shang Shufu Yi, which led to the defeat, Zhuge Dan, Wang Chang, and Hu Fen fulfilled their duties and were not at fault, so they were not held responsible.

Only the supervising army Sima Zhao supervised the army and was unfavorable, and the coordination was improper, so he cut off the title and removed the fiefdom.

Sima Shi announced this punishment decision without communicating with Sima Zhao in advance, and Sima Zhao was depressed and angry for a while, and in a fit of anger, he ran to Qingyufang to buy drunk, and even ignored Sima Shi's summons.

Sima Zhao is not unwilling to take responsibility for this failure, the key is that the leading general does not have any culpability, why he, as a prison army, has to bear all the responsibility, it is really difficult to use the word fairness to describe it, if you want to explain all this, it can only be said that Sima Shi used him as a scapegoat to calm the anger of the ministers of the court.

This is where Sima Zhao is depressed, yes, he can take his share of responsibility, but he can't put all the on his head, this defeat, Zhuge Dan, as the main general, should bear most of the responsibility, it is precisely because of his command mistakes, did not anticipate the impact of the weather, in the face of the attack of the Wu army, and failed to make a correct response plan, which ultimately led to the heavy casualties of the Wei army, this defeat, Zhuge Dan is definitely to blame.

Zhuge Dan is not a descendant of the Sima family, but he has a close relationship with Xiahou Xuan, which Sima Zhao is very clear, when Sima Yi was alive, he did not do anything to Zhuge Dan, because Zhuge Dan is indeed a general.

But this time Sima Zhao went to Huainan to work with Zhuge Dan, and vaguely felt that Zhuge Dan was also a very ambitious person like Wang Ling, and he was unwilling to work hard for their Sima family willingly, so among this kind of people, they had to be more vigilant.

When he was in Huainan, Sima Zhao secretly wrote a letter to Sima Shi, hoping that Sima Shi could find an opportunity to reduce Zhuge Dan's military power, so that he would not become Wang Ling's second.

After the defeat of Dongxing this time, Sima Zhao naturally thought that Sima Shi would listen to his advice, seize the opportunity of this defeat, and take Zhuge Dan down.

But what he didn't expect was that Sima Shi didn't even have a symbolic punishment, and directly exempted Zhuge Dan and others from their crimes, but let him be the scapegoat for this matter and bear all the faults, which Sima Zhao couldn't accept at all.

In this era, if you want to achieve great things, prestige is the most important thing, and without prestige, you will not be respected by others.

Being stripped of his title this time will undoubtedly become a stain on Sima Zhao's life, and it will also make Sima Zhao's reputation fall to the bottom, which will make Sima Zhao's future career extremely difficult.

Although Sima Zhao knew that Sima Shi's decision was also a forced result, in any case, it was psychologically difficult for Sima Zhao to accept that he should not be carried.

Sima Zhao and Sima Shi have always had a good relationship, and Sima Zhao also knows that Sima Shi has always taken care of himself before, and their relationship is also very close.

But since Sima Shi took over the power, Sima Zhao felt as if Sima Shi had changed as a person, and the feelings between their brothers had weakened a lot.

Maybe this has something to do with Sima Yi's death, Sima Yi designated Sima Lun to take over Sima Shi's position before he died, and when he suddenly killed the expectations of Sima Zhao and their brothers.

As we all know, Sima Shi has no sons, which means that once Sima Shi dies, the authority he leaves behind will inevitably be inherited by one of their brothers.

Originally, according to the order of the eldest and youngest, Sima Zhao was the most promising to become the heir, and Sima Shi took over the big position, but if Sima Shi had three long and two short, Sima Zhao was still very likely to ascend to the throne.

But Sima Yi's dying death can be regarded as pouring a basin of cold water on Sima Zhao, making all his fantasies empty in an instant, Sima Shi is the oldest, has no heirs, they still have hope, and Sima Lun is the youngest among the brothers, just this point, Sima Zhao has no thoughts.

From the moment Sima Yi died, Sima Zhao began to resentment in his heart, he is also Sima Yi's son, he can't compare to his eldest brother Sima Shi, and he can't compare to his younger brother Sima Lun, in the Sima family, he is a superfluous person!
