Luoyang.

Although it has been repeatedly burned by military disasters in the past ten years, the grand and graceful style has been quite damaged; But Luoyang is the capital of thousands of emperors in the world after all. As long as the chaos stops for a while, the staggering huge wealth and the best characters in the world will still gather from all over the body of the giant of the Great Jin Dynasty, and inject it into the heart like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.

The people who died of the famine of the sword soldiers, the ruins of the broken walls that were still in the ashes, were all forgotten in an instant. In Luoyang, what catches the eye every day is still those hundreds of millions of drinking and feasting and singing, and the profound discussion and analysis. There are also the best fat powder fragrant, willful and casual celebrities, and unbridled madness in it, and they don't realize that the world has become a boiling trend, as if cooking oil on fire.

On this day, in the palace city in the north of Luoyang, there was a banquet that lasted until late at night.

The banquet was not held in one of the palace's well-known halls, but in a garden on the north side of the East Palace.

There is a tributary drawn by Luoshui here to linger in the meantime, the flowers and trees on both sides of the bank are densely planted with water, after the brocade flowers, the corridor can be vaguely seen to twist and turn along the water. On the corridor, the wind is shielded with tulle, and the golden bell is occasionally stirred lightly, and the sound of water, bells, silk and bamboo, laughter, and the sound of skirts are mixed together.

At the end of the corridor is a water pavilion built near the water. This pavilion is in the shape of a ship, and its appearance is quite interesting, and the brilliant lights shine through the window lattice, reaching into the sky; Surrounded by halberd-wielding soldiers, surrounded by makeup maids, and Tsing Yi messengers holding trays and lamps come and go. The depths of the extremely quiet and elegant garden suddenly show such a building, and under the conflict between the two sides of the artistic conception, it looks extraordinarily magnificent.

The space inside the pavilion is very open, and dozens of dancers are swimming in it, in full grace. But there were only three seats in the hall, and one of them was empty.

In the middle of the seat, a handsome young man who was half-seated and half-lying stood on his shoulder, staring at the song and dance in a daze, occasionally shaking his head to the beat a few times, as if he was addicted to sound. But if you look closely, you will see that his brows are deeply locked, his eyes are hollow, the focus of his gaze is not in front of him, and he has long been unable to know where to throw it, and even when a beautiful palace maid stepped forward to pour wine, his attention did not turn at all.

The broad-robed scribe on the left side stroked his short beard under his chin and coughed lightly, "Your Majesty...... 陛xià......"

It turned out that the young man was the current son of the Great Jin Dynasty, the emperor of Jianyuan Yongjia, Sima Chi.

The scribe called several times before the emperor turned his head as if he had been suddenly awakened: "Uh...... Xuanzhi, did you call me? ”

The one who was called "Xuanzhi" was the old man when the emperor was the king of Yuzhang, the emperor's younger brother, and the new Lanling man Miao Bo. This person was originally a confidant of the king of the East China Sea, and later served as an envoy to Chang'an, persuading Sima Hao, the king of Hejian, to release the hijacked Emperor Hui and the kings of the clan. After the king of the East China Sea took charge of the imperial court, he took King Yuzhang as the emperor's younger brother, and he recommended it out of Miao Bo. However, the world has changed over time, and after King Yuzhang ascended to the pole, the contradiction with the King of the East China Sea has become more and more serious, and Miao Bo has also been in phase with the King of the East China Sea 2, which is difficult to predict in advance.

I only heard Miao broadcast: "Your Majesty, yesterday Liangzhou Zhang Liang sent an envoy to contribute; Mao Mengbei, the ruler of Ningzhou, came to Luoyang and begged the imperial court to appoint the assassin. These things show that the emperor's authority is still there, the loyal people are still there, and the Weichen is deeply congratulated...... Only then did I arrange a banquet here, and I also asked His Majesty to relax his mind and temporarily be entertained by the sound and lust to comfort his body and mind, and there was no need to worry about trivial matters. ”

As he spoke, Miao Bo held the wine cup in both hands and persuaded the emperor to drink.

But the emperor was not pleased by Miao Bo's words, he raised his glass to Miao Bo, and then fell into deep thought. After a long time, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to a certain place on the other side of the bank and asked, "Does Xuan Zeke know where that is?" ”

The lights in the water pavilion were dazzling, and Miao Bo couldn't see clearly. So he got up and walked a few steps out, opening the beaded curtain to take a look.

The river is about three to five feet wide, and there seems to be a small garden on the other side of the river. The garden is not walled, but surrounded by a low fence. The fence was covered with foliage and vines, and it was rather rough, and in a few places it had collapsed. Inside and outside this fence, there is no light, it is very dark, you can barely see that there are several thatched cottages in it, the shape is very irregular, it does not look like the residence of high-ranking officials, but it is somewhat similar to the fang market on the outskirts of Luoyang City.

Miao Bo himself lives in the south of the city, and rarely comes here, so he naturally doesn't know what the bottom of this dilapidated courtyard is, but he feels that this place is hidden between many pavilions and pavilions, which is very abrupt. He turned around and smiled: "Weichen is not as knowledgeable as His Majesty, I really don't know what it is." ”

The emperor threw his head up and sighed.

"Stand down." He commanded the dancers. After a pause, he said, "Put out a few more lights, the smoke is very smoky." ”

The dancing girls and servants withdrew, and dozens of butter candles were extinguished one by one, and the water pavilion was suddenly deserted. When the eyes adjusted to the dim light, the courtyard on the other side became clearer.

"That place was originally the side courtyard of the East Palace. In the past, the prince was jealous of Empress Jia, and pretended to be absurd for the sake of the preservation level. There were many men and women in the East Palace, and the prince sent them all out, so that the genus of sunflowers, blue seeds, chickens, and noodles was sold, and the profits were reaped. He was often in the palace for the city, causing people to be slaughtered; He also pretended to be a butcher to cut pigs and sheep, carrying two catties in his hands, and the weight was not bad...... Xuanze, there is the place where the prince of Huaihuai kills pigs and sheep, do you see that the shape of the building, is it similar to the sheep market outside the city? ”

The "Prince Huai" that the emperor said was Sima Shu, the eldest son of Emperor Hui. The prince has been smart since he was a child, and when Emperor Wu was alive, he said to the ministers that the prince was like Emperor Xuan, so he made his reputation flow all over the world. However, after Emperor Hui ascended to the pole, the authority was in the hands of Empress Jia, and the crown prince was not born by Empress Jia, so he was deeply jealous of Empress Jia. Empress Jia then preached the prince's shortcomings, spread far and near, and then set up a plan to depose the prince as a concubine, and finally sent Huangmen Sun Ji to kill the prince with a medicine pestle. The prince was only twenty-three years old at the time, and he was buried with the royal rites of Guangling, and the world thought it was strange. And the rebellion of the clan kings in the following decades also started here.

Miao Bo's heart tightened. He arranged a banquet to entertain the emperor, originally hoping that the emperor would relieve his sorrows a little, but he never thought that this water pavilion was close to the East Palace, but it reminded the emperor of old things.

But I heard the emperor sigh again, and said in a low voice: "Xuan Ze, Xuan Ze, Qing is my confidant, I should know that I have no ambition to be an emperor, and I ascended the throne of Yuyu, all forced by the times." In the past, when I was in the East Palace, I came here to pay my respects; Now, the more I feel that I have the support of the courtiers, but the situation is the same as that of the prince...... Alas...... I just don't know what the end will be, and what will be the reputation behind me? ”

Miao Bo was shocked, hurriedly got up and bowed to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty said this!" What a statement! ”

He habitually looked around, took a few steps forward on his knees, and said: "Your Majesty is ruling with a bow, although it has no authority, it seems to be dangerous, and there is no need to be depressed to this point." ”

"Oh?" The Emperor glanced at him.

"Weichen is despicable, however, dare to ask for His Majesty's plan: First, the king of the East China Sea is unfavorable to suppress the thieves in the Central Plains, and he has lost a lot of soldiers and generals, and his reputation has been greatly depressed. The king of the East China Sea is the lord of the alliance in Fang Town, the prince of the world, and he does not really have the right to kill and take it. Therefore, when the time came, the king of the East China Sea urgently needed the support of the Luoyang center to maintain the status of the alliance leader, and would never rashly do anything against the law. ”

"Hmm...... Reasonably...... "The emperor bowed slightly.

"Both, Weichen also heard that Hou Lu Yong in the Northern Army, Chen Yan, the captain of the Du Branch, and others plotted to establish King Qinghe as the crown prince. King Qinghe was originally friendly with the King of the East China Sea, however, the frequent movements in the Hongxun Palace recently were deeply disliked by the King of the East China Sea...... If the King of the East China Sea intends to suppress them, he will have to rely on His Majesty. ”

Sima Qin, the king of Qinghe, was the son of Emperor Hui's half-brother Sima Xuan. In the first year of Tai'an, Sima Shang, the son of the prince and the grandson of the emperor, died violently, and Sima Yi, the king of Qi, then elected the king of Qinghe as the crown prince. In the following years, the situation of the court was unpredictable, and King Qinghe ascended to the crown prince twice, and was deposed twice, which can be regarded as an outlier.

When he first ascended the throne, the king of the East China Sea intended to make King Qinghe the crown prince again in order to contain the emperor. However, the emperor preemptively took Sima Quan, the younger brother of the king of Qinghe and the king of Yuzhang, as the crown prince, and then took over the courtiers to discuss the Qing Dynasty, forcing the king of Donghai to kill Zhou Mu and Zhuge Mei, who invited the king of Qinghe. The king of the East China Sea was displeased and led his army out of the town of Xuchang. However, King Qinghe has always been interested in the throne, and recently he has befriended Emperor Hui and Empress Yang who live in Hongxun Palace, and the city is full of storms.

The emperor frowned and said, "The ...... in the Hongxun Palace Could it be that the king of the East China Sea has some old grudges with her? ”

"As far as Weichen knows, there are no old grudges. However, the king of the East China Sea was reluctant to see another queen from the center. Miao Bo almost leaned his body in front of the emperor's desk, and his voice was extremely low.

"I see......" the emperor suddenly realized.

The emperor was weak in the court, and he was not the opponent of the king of the East China Sea. However, if King Qinghe relies on the power of Emperor Hui's Empress Yang's ascending to the throne, then the Yang clan will inevitably serve as the empress dowager to assist the government, which is a situation that the King of the East China Sea will never allow. In this way, subduing the Qinghe King and his family became the top priority of the King of the East China Sea, and the emperor could sit back and watch the two fight. The treacherous political disputes in the court are really nothing more than this.

Hearing Miao Bo's explanation, the emperor's mood seemed to be much better. He personally held the jug, poured a full cup of wine for himself and Miao, and then asked expectantly, "The first and the second are all good news." Is there a third clause for me? ”

Miao Bo pointed to the seat that was always empty next to the emperor's right hand: "Your Majesty may as well wait, after a while, someone will visit." ”

The emperor looked at the seat, then at Miao Bo with a mysterious smile on his face, turned his head to look at the seat again, and finally smiled: "Okay, then wait." ”
