Chapter 307: Secret
In this world, there are always a lot of people of unknown origin, and you don't know where he comes from or where he ends up.
The rivers and lakes are a piece of sky, and they are like a meteor, streaking across the sky, leaving a ray of light.
The light was short but dazzling, and it was precisely because of this kind of people that there was light in them.
The rivers and lakes are the rivers and lakes.
Zhang Qianzhi is this kind of person, no one knows where he came from, what his past was, where did he learn martial arts, what was going on in his head?
It was as if no one knew about these things except himself.
Even Zhang Qianzhong, who is an elder brother, can't understand what his younger brother is thinking in the past 50 years or so? He can't understand why his younger brother wants to kill him now.
Watching these two people duel, the envoys of various countries did not panic, but watched them quietly.
Sima Shao was also watching.
Mu Chen was also watching.
Bian Xiaofeng said, "Big brother, are we going to help?"
Mu Chen waved his hand and said, "Why should we meddle in this kind of thing?"
Murong Xia said: "But Brother Mu, don't you think Zhang Qianzhong wins?"
Mu Chen sighed and said, "I want him to win, but now ......"
Before he finished his words, he suddenly heard someone say "stop"
When Zhang Qianzhong and Zhang Qianzhi heard this voice, they stopped at the same time, and their faces changed at the same time.
Where the words came, a person slowly walked in.
It's Sima Shao.
At this time, in this kind of place, the most dignified person is him. No one here dares not to listen to him, let alone his courtiers who are fighting, and of course he has to speak at this time.
Zhang Qianzhong and Zhang Qianzhi really stopped and looked at Sima Shao together.
Sima Shao looked at everyone, then at them, and said in a deep voice, "Who told you to do it?"
Zhang Qianzhi said, "Your Majesty, this is our personal ......"
Sima Shao said, "Here, are you talking to me about personal matters?"
Zhang Qianzhi stopped talking.
Sima Shao continued, "This is the end of today's sacrificial ceremony."
With that, he quickly left the altar, as if he did not want to stay here for a moment.
This kind of thing is indeed a very shameful thing for an emperor.
After Sima Shao left, Zhang Qianzhong and Zhang Qianzhi were arrested on charges of disrupting the ceremony.
Night, Royal Palace.
The snow hasn't stopped.
Sima Shao sat alone in the palace, and the little eunuch who was usually by his side was not there.
The candles in the house are lit and the candles are flickering.
Sima Shao sat on the dragon chair, holding a copy of the recital in his hand, which was the one that accused Zhang Qianzhong of rebellion.
It was this twist and turn that made him lose so many people.
At this moment, the jokes of the Northern Dynasty fighting in the nest will definitely spread all over the country.
But Sima Shao was not worried about face, but about the inside.
What exactly was he worried about?
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Sima Shao was a little surprised, someone came to the palace, but the guards didn't find out? Why didn't the eunuch report it?
Sima Shao took a deep breath and said, "Come in."
The door was pushed open, and the snow outside was blown in by the wind, and a cold wind hit Sima Shao's front door.
Along with the wind and snow, there was another person.
That person was actually Lin Hongyue.
Sima Shao looked at Lin Hongyue lightly and said, "Lin Hongyue, why are you here?
Lin Hongyue smiled and said, "Since the emperor has accepted my gift, why can't I come?"
Sima Shao said, "I have accepted your gift, can you come?"
Lin Hongyue said, "Since the emperor accepted my gift, it means that the emperor has no hostility towards me, since we are not enemies, why can't I come?"
Sima Shao suddenly didn't know what to say, and he didn't understand what Lin Hongyue was going to say.
Sima Shao asked lightly, "Even if you want to come, why do you have to come secretly in the middle of the night?"
Lin Hongyue said with a smile, "Maybe I think it's more convenient, Your Majesty, you know it's snowing outside, and your mouth will freeze if you wait outside for too long."
Sima Shao sneered, "Then let your mouth freeze, and you won't make such boring jokes with me."
Lin Hongyue smiled and said, "If my mouth freezes, then the emperor will regret it."
Sima Shao said, "Why do I regret it?"
Lin Hongyue said, "Because I came secretly at this time, just to give the emperor a gift"
Sima Shao said, "Oh, is your gift your mouth?"
Lin Hongyue laughed and said, "My mouth is not a gift, and it is not as expensive as this gift."
Sima Shao seemed to be interested, and said, "What gift?"
Lin Hongyue said "deer"
Sima Shao said, "You have already given me a deer, and you want to send another one?"
Lin Hongyue waved her hand, shook her head and said, "No, this deer is much more valuable than the one during the day today."
Sima Shao said, "Oh, what deer could be better than the white deer?"
Lin Hongyue said word for word: "The land of thousands of miles in the Central Plains, I don't know if it is comparable to the white deer?"
Sima Shao's eyes seemed to glow, but there was no expression on his face, and he said slowly, "I have long heard that you are in charge of the Southern Dynasties, but I didn't expect you to even win over me."
Lin Hongyue said, "Those who have achieved great things since ancient times must be heroes, and if heroes are too lonely, it will be a little difficult to do great things."
Sima Shao sneered, "You know that you can't resist the Three Kingdoms on your own, so you plan to pull the north into the water?"
Lin Hongyue didn't speak, just smiled.
Sima Shao continued, "But don't make too much noise in your calculations, because I don't have any intention of fighting now."
Lin Hongyue said with a smile, "I have heard a little about today's incident, and I also know that the emperor has no intention of thinking about these now, but I believe that the emperor will agree sooner or later."
Sima Shao was about to speak, when suddenly the eunuch outside the door shouted, "Your Majesty, the prince asks to see"
Sima Shao muttered, "Prince, why did he come back?"
Lin Hongyue smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll retire"
After saying that, he turned around and left, and happened to see Sima Yunxuan when he went out.
Sima Yunxuan was standing under the eaves, his body draped in a velvet coat, which was covered with a layer of snow.
When Lin Hongyue walked out, Sima Yunxuan's face showed a surprised expression, he really didn't expect to meet Lin Hongyue here.
Lin Hongyue smiled at him and strode out of the palace.
Sima Yunxuan entered the main hall and saluted, "The son of the minister to meet his father"
Sima Shao said, "No courtesy." Why did the prince come to visit late at night?"
Sima Yunxuan said, "My father sent him to the front line, and my son suddenly heard the news this evening, saying that something happened to the sacrificial ceremony, and it happened that not long after my son left, he rushed back overnight to meet his father."
He was afraid that Sima Shao would misunderstand, so he immediately said, "Father sent his sons to investigate General Zhang, since General Zhang has appeared in the capital, then there is no need for sons to go to the front line again."
Sima Shao stared at him and said slowly, "Did you already know about this matter?"
Sima Yunxuan's face changed, and he said, "Erchen......
Sima Shao said, "Today Zhang Qianzhong said that you can prove his innocence, but is there such a thing?"
Sima Yunxuan is still fragmented.
Sima Shao said, "You left yesterday and walked for a day, but you can rush back in one night?"
Sima Yunxuan said, "Erchen...... Erchen is just ......"
Sima Shao said, "You just knew that something would happen today, so you didn't go far, right?"
Sima Yunxuan still wanted to defend himself, but finally sighed.
It is indeed not easy to lie in front of one's own father.
Sima Yunxuan told Sima Shao everything he knew.
Sima Shao was not surprised when he heard this, he just nodded slightly, and said, "You don't care about this matter, since the responsibility lies with Zhang Qianzhi, then I will order Zhang Qianzhong to be released tomorrow."
Sima Yunxuan suddenly knelt down and said, "Father, although Uncle Zhi was at fault this time, after all, he also made meritorious contributions to our dynasty, and I hope that my father will deal with it as appropriate."
Sima Shao nodded and said, "I know that he is a talent, and I am also very heartbroken."
Sima Yunxuan let out a sigh of relief this time and said, "Father, what is Lin Hongyue doing?"
Sima Shao said: "He persuaded me to send troops to the Central Plains with him"
Sima Yunxuan lost his voice and said, "What?
Sima Shao smiled and said, "I am not a fool, I know the situation of the Northern Dynasty better than anyone else, if I start a war rashly, I will break with the Western Dynasty, and the strength of the Eastern Dynasty should not be underestimated. What's more, if Western Xia and Tibet take the opportunity to send troops to the Central Plains, won't our country suffer from the enemy on its back?
Sima Yunxuan smiled and said, "Since my father thinks so, the ministers will be relieved." The son also asked his father not to go to war until he had to do so."
Sima Shao said, "I have my own measure in this kind of thing, if you have nothing to do, go down."
Sima Yunxuan said, "Yes, the son of the minister retired"
Sima Yunxuan retreated, and Sima Shao began to look at the folds in his hand again.
He'd looked at it many, many times, but for some reason, he's still reading it.
Suddenly, he threw the fold onto the table, stood up, and said, "Someone"
A little eunuch walked in and said, "What does the emperor command?"
Sima Shao said in a deep voice: "Where is Zhang Qianzhi imprisoned?"
The little eunuch said, "It seems to be in the cell of the Jianguo Temple"
Sima Shao said, "Let's go, go to Jianguo Temple"
