Chapter 278: Succession
In the Jin Palace, the sun is a little westerly, and it is not far from falling from the mountain.
The Tao is constant, not for Yao, not for death. Xia Wei once compared himself to the sun and felt that he would never perish, but in fact, even the sun has a time to set. Xia Wei was forced to fall off the mountain, and a man named Shang Tang completed this feat.
How can there be an eternal sun in the world, even if there is no Shang Tang, Xia Wei will not be able to escape death. Death is the destination of all life and the end of all things in the world. Everything has a beginning, everything has an end.
Sima Zhao may not be regarded as the sun of the world, but he must be regarded as the sun of Wei, even the genuine emperor Cao Huan has to rely on his snort. Such a round of the sun is on the verge of setting, which naturally causes no vibrations.
Many courtiers gathered in the Jin Palace, to work hard for their future careers. As for how fruitful such efforts will be, it is left to fate. Some things are like this, and it depends on luck after you do it, but if you don't do it, you will definitely be unlucky. What Emperor Wei Wu did back then, it is difficult to guarantee that today's King Jin will do it again.
What kind of feeling would it be like when life was coming to an end? Sima Zhao felt that the whole world was empty, as if it was about to float up at any time, only his body was getting heavier and heavier, and he couldn't move an inch.
The longing eyes looked at Zai Yu who was sitting on the edge of the collapse, his lips opened and closed, but he didn't come up with a complete word.
Jae Yu knew what he meant, and he wanted to live. It's not hard to guess at all, where are the dying people who don't want to live. If he could, he would have wanted Sima Zhao to live for a few more years, but this matter is no longer something he can calculate. Sima Zhao's life span is less than two hours, and the city god ghost pawn in Luoyang has not yet arrived, and the things that should be explained need to be explained.
"King, it's not that I don't want to give you an extension of life, but that mortals have a certain number of existences. Although I am a member of the Immortal Dao, I don't have that much ability. However, the king can rest assured that people die as ghosts, and there is still a long time to pass in the underworld. And the king of Shu Xingwei, opened the foundation of a country, and adhered to the general trend of luck. Or you can stay in the prefecture forever. ”
Sima Zhao pointed to his mouth in a wasted manner, and Zai Yu nodded zero on him, temporarily stabilizing his condition.
"Immortals... Immortal Master, the afterlife, lonely... What should I do?"
"Does the king have the heart to win the Immortal Dao now?"
"Yes, but... But at this point, there is nothing to be done. And now I'm going to die, let's put ... Can't put down ......"
Jae Yu smiled, laughing happily. I'm afraid that he Sima Zhao will lose his obsession and see everything. As long as there is something that can't be put down, it's easy to do. The chess piece that the master confessed can be regarded as buried.
At that moment, he knelt in Sima Zhao's ear and said: "King, my master is the master of the underworld, and his cultivation is supreme and his status is respected. Whatever the king asks, he can grant, but there are some things that require the king's help. ”
"Oh, even if the immortal master comes, after I die, I will do everything I can. ”
"After the king goes down, just do this and so ......"
A quarter of an hour later, Jae Yu stepped out of the room, a hint of joy on his face, which had not been the case in a long time. I've been thinking about the activities in the human world, and now I can finally start planning in another world.
"Why is the immortal master happy? Could it be that my father's illness can be cured?"
Sima Yan excitedly grabbed Zai Yu's sleeve, although the current situation is in the hands of the Sima family, it is still effective to be loyal to the Cao family, if Sima Zhao dies at this moment, I am afraid that there will be some waves. If my father still has time to live, it is better to stabilize the situation and make a smooth transition.
Zai Yu shook his head and said, "That's not the case, life and death are fate, and I have nothing to do." However, the prince can rest assured that the king is fearless and will die. ”
Sima Yan saluted in frustration and walked quickly into the bedroom. Sima Zhao saw his son and beckoned him to be by his side.
"Yan'er, today is my father's death, and I have some things to explain. Listen carefully, although Wei is now in the hands of my Sima clan, the people have a lot of attachment to Cao Wei, so they should not act recklessly, and should make careful preparations and make more arrangements. The new monarch of Eastern Wu ascended the throne, but he was not the crown prince determined by Sun Xiu. Between the monarch and the minister, there must be dirty, but you can wait patiently for the opportunity, unify the great cause, close at hand, don't lose the advantage because of impatience. Although Shu Han is dead, people's hearts are still unstable, so we must treat An Legong well. First, it will help stabilize Shu, and secondly, it will dilute the resistance of Wu. Yan'er, my Sima clan originated from your grandfather, and the family business has been passed down to you, and I am already the third generation. Now I'm leaving everything to you. ”
"Father, my son, I have another question. ”
"What's the matter? ”
"Why should the immortal master treat him? This person is not ordinary after all, and he should not be involved in the world, but he came to help his father achieve great things, this is suspicious. Just now I saw him walk out of the room, with a happy face, thinking that he had bad intentions. ”
"Non... No, what the immortal master wants, I already know everything, and I can trust it. I'm dead... After that, treat the immortal master as if it were me, and don't... Don't be lazy. ”
Sima Yan respectfully responded, and Sima Zhao said again: "Now that the ministers of the court and the central government have arrived in the mansion, you... You go to entertain me on my behalf, and you do... Don't be disrespectful. ”
"My brother is already entertaining the ministers, and my son wants to accompany his father more. ”
"You are the one who inherits the throne, how can you not go yourself? Go, go!"
Sima Zhao was a little excited, and Sima Yan had to listen to his father's words and go to receive the ministers.
In fact, he is not very worried about Sima You, Sima You has been smart since he was a child, and he is surrounded by many henchmen. And it was passed on to the eldest uncle Sima Shi, and many courtiers thought that the power should be returned to Sima Shi's lineage, especially when Sima You was Sima Zhao's son. It is believed that Sima You will succeed to the throne, which can not only comfort Sima Shi's lineage, but also inherit Sima Zhao's incense.
Such a brother really can't help but be afraid. Sima Yan has wasted a lot of effort to get to where he is today, but he doesn't want to make a mistake here.
In the lobby, the ministers were seated in civil and military positions, just like the posture of a court. And Sima You was sitting in the hall, holding a wine glass, talking loudly.
Seeing Sima Yan coming, Sima You hurriedly got up and saluted: "Eldest brother, I was still talking with the princes, and the eldest brother was accompanying the king, and I didn't want the eldest brother to come at this moment." ”
"Hmph, why did you not go to visit the king, but drank in front of the hall? I want you to receive the princes, but you are asked to sit here and drink?
Sima You hurriedly confessed: "The younger brother knows his mistake, so he will go to visit the king." ”
Sima Yan looked at the figure of his younger brother walking out, and a trace of coldness appeared in his heart. This younger brother seems to be very popular among the ministers.
"My father, my father is seriously ill and is no longer able to stay, so I apologize to you on his behalf. ”
"The prince is serious, and King Jin's body is important. It's just that everything is complicated, and it has worked hard for the world. ”
"Yes, if the prince needs it, I am willing to help the son. ”
......
Sima Yan waved his hand again and again before suppressing the voices of the ministers and said, "The kindness of the princes, Yan has accepted it." Now that the situation has changed, the princes have managed their subordinates well, so as not to take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos. When all things in my house are finished, I will come to my door to give thanks. ”
The ministers present, whether they were close to the Sima clan or close to the Cao clan, all nodded in agreement. In the current situation, stability is better than standing in the ranks of the Sima clan, and it is hoped that Sima Zhao's power can transition smoothly and continue to maintain the current position of the Sima clan. Those who are close to the Cao family hope that the situation can be calmer, so as not to directly attack the emperor when the Sima family is in a hurry.
Cao Chao has learned from the past, and he must not die another emperor. After all, Sima Yan is not as old as Sima Zhao, and there may be a turning point, which is also undecided.
In the tacit understanding of these courtiers, Sima Zhao died suddenly at the age of fifty-five.
Nezha looked at the confused ghost in front of him and was in trouble for a while.
