Chapter 403: Abdication
"What, flew away?" Hearing the latest news, Sima Shimin's face changed, "Why don't you stop them soon?"
"Your Highness, don't be impatient. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Yue Jianghong was unusually calm, "Your Majesty should still be in the city." ”
"What are you kidding, didn't Yuan Disha say that there is no one in the whole city?...... No, no, you mean to turn the tiger away?"
Sima Shimin's thinking was so utilitarian whenever and wherever he was, but this was exactly what Yue Jianghong wanted, and he nodded hurriedly.
"That's right, with Your Majesty's cunning, you will definitely not leave with the large army, and if my estimate is correct, it should be the legendary Sanshen Mountain Emperor, and the Sanshen Mountain Emperor, no matter which one of them does not have strong defense, as long as they go all the way to the west, it is necessary to be stopped by our western army...... I don't think Your Majesty will be unaware of this. ”
"I see, I almost got deceived. Shimin nodded, "Send a message to Yuan Disha and let him trap the palace......"
"Your Highness, by all means. Yue Jianghong advised, "Please don't forget that our purpose is to 'clear the monarch's side'. ”
"Hmm...... Reasonable. "In matters involving the hearts of the people, Shimin is always very concerned, even if this time it is a rebellion, but he is still thinking about how to justify his actions afterwards, so if Luoyang is destroyed, it will not be easy to deal with the remarks afterwards," and there is also the possibility of startling the snake...... I understand, let Yuan Disha pretend to pursue, and Luoyang will be handed over to us. ”
"Your Highness is wise. ”
Although the forms are different, such a practice of always thinking about the people of the world is the form that Yue Jianghong desires.
At least it's better than having empty dreams.
They soon found themselves overthinking, though.
When Yuan Di chased after him and Shimin and Yue Jianghong quickly sent troops to Luoyang, their intelligence officers intercepted a long-distance signal facing the whole country.
It's a video--
"Silly, I'm still in Luoyang!"
Sima Di laughed with his back to the streets of Luoyang.
……
The rebels in the west are only about 10,000, and the defenders of Penglai are said to have 20,000, but in the air and in the case of protecting the people, it is difficult to even protect themselves, not to mention some elite generals to guard against the pursuers, so in the end, it is necessary to "the strongest bait" to ensure their safety.
With such an idea, Sima Di temporarily suppressed the surprise in his heart and asked Xinlan to help him shoot a video.
"So, let's go. ”
As soon as she was done, Xinlan said.
"Well, I really don't want to go. Sima Di touched the back of his head.
"Why, bent on death?" Xinlan smiled contemptuously, just like when the two first met.
"Who wants to die if they have nothing to do!" Sima Di was a little angry, but when he thought of something, he couldn't help but show an inexplicable sad expression, "I just want to talk to my son...... Face-to-face. ”
"His rebellion has become an established fact, why do you want to stay, just don't ......" Xinlan couldn't say anything after saying half of it.
Because until not long ago, she also began to trust Sima Shimin a little.
"Don't you have this son?" Sima Di smiled bitterly and muttered softly, then shook his head again and again, "I'm sorry, I can't do this." ”
Sima Di took a deep breath, glanced at the city where there was no one except Xinlan and no longer had to worry about being overheard or misunderstood, and finally spit out the words that had been hidden in his heart.
"He's my favorite son. ”
Even Sima Di knew very well that as an emperor, his casual words would cause much destructive power, so he kept this sentence in his heart.
You may ask why he chose Longji as his heir, the reason is actually very simple, he wants to compensate his eldest son.
Everyone in the world is crazy about becoming an emperor, but who would have thought that Sima Di didn't want to be an emperor. At first, he tried it to help his good brother rehabilitate...... However, when he became the emperor, he found that everything was too troublesome, and it was not suitable for his freedom-loving character, commonly known as willfulness.
Then it's good to give up...... Such words are not suitable for an emperor, so—
"I have to do it!"
Sima Di made up his mind to do it vigorously, and it happened that he had a dream to realize, so he regarded the emperor as the cornerstone of realizing his dream......
However, a person like Sima Di was naturally hit by a series of troubles that came later, and he understood that it was because of his lack of ability, but he could only hold on, because he was the emperor.
Well, it's such a sad thing, and before he knew it, he began to demand himself with the emperor's guidelines...... But there are limits to that.
Less than a year after the world praised him for his great achievement of unifying the Three Kingdoms, he lost his eldest son.
As he revealed before, his favorite is the second son, and the eldest son who sees this is more afraid than anyone else, this fear has become unscrupulous, the eldest son is always on guard against the second son, he knows, and he knows that the eldest son has done a lot of useless work in order to prevent himself from being abolished, and even the last death in Taiyuan may be to show in front of him.
Sima Di began to dislike this throne, or he had always been disgusted, and it was only then that he completely erupted.
So he didn't plan to keep what he hated the most for his favorite second son, but left it to Longji - it's not that he doesn't love Longji, it's just that the eldest son has spent his life pursuing something, and he wants to give it to Longji.
Of course, if LONGi doesn't need it, then he will definitely not hand it over to LONGi, and he doesn't want to see something like Dazi happen again.
Yes, what Sima Di tested Longji at the beginning was not whether Longji had the ability to become an emperor, but whether he wanted to become an emperor.
To his surprise, after meeting Xinlan, Longji not only had the desire to become an emperor, but also had the same but somewhat different ideas as himself.
The same thing is that they all pursue to make the people of the Great Song Dynasty better, but the difference is that LONGi has ideals and his dreams.
But this thought was enough for him to hand over the throne to Longji.
But now Sima Di regrets it a little.
The so-called dream is to know that it is impossible to do, but still pursue it.
Sima Di does not regret that he had unattainable dreams, but he does not want his dreams to hurt his relatives.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Sima Di didn't understand in his heart that what the people of the world were looking for was the throne, but was it really that good to be the emperor? He had obviously given the people enough power and freedom.
……
Even if he didn't care about the level of light and darkness of a person, but looking at the man's darkness index getting higher and higher, Xinlan hurriedly interrupted his thoughts.
"In that case, you can't even let him be charged with killing the king. ”
In normal times, Sima Di would immediately change his mind when he heard this, but at this time, Sima Di was ignorant at first, and then laughed miserably.
"I see, do you think the people will kill me?"
“…… Well. ”
"You're saying my son will kill me with his own hands?"
The voice became much louder, but Xinlan could only nod cruelly to wake up the man who was intoxicated with his dreams.
"That's right. ”
"I don't believe it. ”
Sima Di almost turned around and left, Xinlan had to follow him all the way, only to find that he went straight to the palace hall, took out the heirloom jade seal, and threw it on the ground.
"Just for this thing, you said he would kill me?!For this useless thing, for this useless position?"
Sima Di smashed the dragon chair as a symbol heavily.
"It's a useless thing, but some people want it in their dreams. Xinlan picked up the jade seal.
"Is that including you?"
"Not including me...... But that's not convincing at all, and the same is true of your question. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Di, in fact, you can choose to abdicate. ”
