Chapter 556: Last Words

Jia Chong also saw that Sima Zhao was about to die, and if he didn't decide on the matter of establishing an heir, he was afraid that it would be too late, so he didn't care about anything else, leaned in front of Sima Zhao, and asked anxiously.

Sima Zhao's throat twitched, trying hard to make a sound, but in Jia Chong's ears, except for those few vague and dull strange sounds, he really couldn't tell what Sima Zhao was talking about, he tried to get close to Sima Zhao, wanting to hear what Sima Zhao said.

But the result undoubtedly disappointed Jia Chong, even if he put his ears almost to Sima Zhao's mouth, he still couldn't hear what Sima Zhao said.

"Bring pen and paper!" At the critical time, Pei Xiu had an idea and ordered the palace people to bring paper and pencils.

Jia Chong held the pen in his hand, shook it in front of Sima Zhao's eyes, and asked, "His Royal Highness the King of Jin can't speak, can he write?" ”

Sima Zhao nodded slightly, Jia Chong was overjoyed, and immediately stuffed the pen into Sima Zhao's hand, held his wrist, and stuffed the paper under the tip of the pen.

Sima Zhao's left half of his body was completely unconscious, but the right half of his body was barely moving, and he was holding a pen in his right hand, although it seemed to weigh a thousand catties, but with the help of Jia Chong, he still trembled and left a few crooked words on the white paper: "Chuan You'er." ”

Writing these words, Sima Zhao threw away the brush as if he had exhausted his life's strength, and kept panting.

Although these words are too sloppy and badly written, they can still be recognized clearly, and when Jia Chong saw these four words, the whole person was immediately stunned.

When Sima Zhao was dying, he still chose Sima You as his heir.

This made Jia Chong almost have an urge to slap his mouth, you know, Jia Chong was originally Sima You's father-in-law, in fact, he just needs to sit there steadily, relying on this relationship. It's hard to think about it. But Jia Chong thought he was smart and thought that Sima Yan, the son of the world, had a great chance of winning, so he did not hesitate to betray his son-in-law and came to Sima Yan to take refuge, ready to fight for his future.

But what he didn't expect was that Sima Zhao was at the last moment. still chose to be succeeded by Sima You, which was a heavy blow to Jia Chong.

Jia Chong held this page, in a dilemma, not knowing what to do.

"What did King Jin write?" Pei Xiu leaned his head over, and when he saw the four words on the paper clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Although Sima Zhao did not specify that he would pass the throne to Sima You, at this critical time, it was already very telling that Sima Yan did not pass on Sima Yan alone. Sima Zhao's final choice was still Sima You.

As a member of the Yan Party, Pei Xiu naturally does not want the throne to fall into the hands of Sima You, it is conceivable that once Sima You inherits the throne, then Ren Kai, Yu Chun, Xiahou and others of the Yu Party will inevitably ride on their heads to make a fortune.

Pei Xiu looked around. Except for a few palace people standing in the distance, there were only a few imperial doctors in the palace. These were inconsequential people, and because they were so far away, they had no way of knowing what was written on the paper. Fortunately for Pei Xiu, Queen Yuanji fainted due to excessive grief and had been sent to another palace to rest, otherwise this matter would be really difficult to do.

He whispered to Jia Chong: "Brother Gonglu." Can you take a step to speak? ”

Jia Chong nodded, and the two came to the outside of the hall together, and seeing that there was no one around, Jia Chong let out a long sigh and said, "It seems that King Jin is on his deathbed." In the end, I chose Wuyang Hou! ”

Pei Xiu said with some embarrassment: "If the Marquis of Wuyang is really allowed to inherit the throne, our old ministers will all suffer, and our career will be bleak, and even whether our lives can be saved is a problem." ”

Jia Chong's face became difficult to look at, indeed, if Sima You succeeded to the throne, then their good days would come to an end, and they had unscrupulously supported Sima Yan before, which invisibly offended Sima You, and since the Yan You dispute, the Yan Party and the You Party have been on the same footing, and disputes have continued. Especially Ren Kai and Yu Chun, and Jia Chong regard the same enemy, it is foreseeable that after Sima You comes to power, Ren Kai and Yu Chun will inevitably gain power, and after gaining power, they will also frantically suppress the Yan Party and the family, Jia Chong's good life will come to an end.

"According to the current situation of the King of Jin, I am afraid that this is already the final decision, and now the King of Jin can't speak, even if you go to advise, I'm afraid it will be in vain, and it is difficult to persuade the King of Jin to take back his life."

Pei Xiu's eyes rolled and said: "What the King of Jin said in the book is to summon the Marquis of Wuyang to see Jin, not to pass on the Marquis of Wuyang, we only need to pass the Marquis of Wuyang into the palace according to the order, it is not considered to be against the will of the King of Jin." Brother Gonglu can take the first step and spread the news to the prince of the world, and everything is decided by the prince, what do you think? ”

Jia Chong's eyes couldn't help but light up, although what Pei Xiu said was a bit far-fetched, but it was not unreasonable, Sima Zhao's four words were purely literal, it was indeed the meaning of summoning Sima You into the palace, and there was no other intention, he only needed to pass the news to Wuyang Hou, even if he completed Sima Zhao's instructions, it was naturally not against Sima Zhao's meaning. What's more, Sima Zhao's current condition is very poor, and he can't speak, even if he wants to refuse, he can't open his mouth.

As for notifying Sima Yan one step in advance, it can be operated in the dark, even if Sima Zhao only summoned Sima Youjin to see Sima Yan but did not summon Sima Yan, Sima Yan rushed to meet his critically ill father, it is completely human nature, it is not contrary to filial piety, I am afraid that even Sima Zhao will not be able to refuse.

As for Sima You coming late, then I'm sorry, there was some delay on the way, and the news was delivered late, which is also reasonable.

Sima Zhao's life hangs by a thread, whoever comes earlier can grasp the initiative. After Sima Yan came, everything was decided by Sima Yan himself, and their foreign ministers were at most attached to these princes, and the real decision was made by the prince Sima Yan himself.

Jia Chong nodded and said, "Brother Ji Yan is still resourceful, this plan is very good, so let's act accordingly." ”

Pei Xiu also nodded and said: "Without further ado, the prince of the world still asks Brother Gonglu to come forward in person, be sure to ask the prince to come quickly, and there will be no delay for half a minute." As for Wuyang Hou, Brother Gonglu only needs to send someone to go, and if he can take this detour, he will take more of it, and notify Wuyang Hou as late as possible, Luoyang Road is congested, and no one can blame him for being a few hours late.
