At dawn, Lao Di saw that his two armies had all failed, and half of the men and horses had been lost, and the battle in front of the palace gate, also because of the presence of Zhongshan Wangcuo to supervise the battle, 10,000 armor soldiers were desperate, and with the support of the people who came from all directions, the failure was doomed, and he decided decisively at the moment to take all his family population in the capital, discard all the bulky belongings, slowly withdrew from Lingshou, retreated to his own fiefdom Quyang, and united with the Song clan in the Song land, and prepared to resist the king's upcoming crusade.

Sima Yi is patriotic, but it does not mean that he is really tied up for this country, because he knows that he can die for this country, but once he gives up, he will be buried by thousands of people in his family.

Then, Lao Xi learned from the pain and personally wrote a letter to Zhongshan Wang Cuo, telling his loyalty to the country, his loyalty to the king, and his concern about the prince's addiction to Confucianism.

In the end, he returned his territory and fled to other countries in exchange for the king's pardon of his tribesmen near and far.

After quelling this rebellion, Zhongshan Cuo rarely grabbed the sword that he hadn't touched for a long time, didn't drink, didn't watch singing and dancing, and didn't have a lucky woman, so he sat alone in his main hall, looking at a few courtiers and feeling sad.

This rebellion, for Zhongshan, the blow and losses were huge. It is reported that the fire caused by this rebellion burned almost half of the entire Lingshou, and the people who died in the war could not be counted, and the corpses of the two battlefields were covered with blood, and the corpses were pillowed, and at least 50,000 people died.

Whether it was his own Jiashi subjects or the original Sima family's armed forces, they were once the strength of their foreign wars.

Fifty thousand, already a war of medium intensity with the country of ten thousand vehicles. And the biggest loss is his subordinate Dr. Jiuqing.

Originally, the Sima clan was in charge of the court, and at least half of the Jiuqing doctors were from their family. It was also the elite officials of the Sima clan who maintained the normal operation of the entire court and the entire Zhongshan Kingdom.

As a result, after this war, the Sima clan failed, and they wisely chose to follow Lao Yi to withdraw from the court, withdraw from Lingshou, and retreat to Xiaquyang, forming a new force.

And those who were originally loyal to themselves were killed and fled because of this war. Now there are hundreds of officials in the court, and there are only three or two cats and dogs left.

Glancing at the empty Lao Di, the mat he called his middle father, Zhongshan Wang Cuo not only did not have anger towards Lao Di, but had a deep sense of loss.

He began to wonder if he was really too careful, and whether he was really sorry for this real pillar of Zhongshan.

His eyes involuntarily looked at the bronze table of the four dragons and four winds cast by the old superintendent, and at this time, he really looked at it carefully, and felt that under the feet of the four dragons, he was holding the four deer tightly.

And under the weight of this mountain, the four fawns bear these pressures with meek expressions, and their meek eyes look upward, as if they are looking at the owner of this table and themselves.

Gently rubbing the four fawns, Zhongshan Wang Cuo's heart ached, and he finally understood Lao Xi's good intentions.

Picking up the letter sent by Lao Ji again, he remembered that when Lao Ji assisted him, that kind of good planting, a sense of regret at that time, and a burst of pain in his heart couldn't help but arise spontaneously.

There's no need to doubt that he's changing so fast. Anyone who has outstanding deeds, their character is the easiest to go into rigidity, such as King Zhou Li, such as King Zhao Wuling, such as Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and who else, etc.

Trust you, there is no reason, kill you, and there is no need for a reason, in their hands, the word resurgence is the most likely to appear.

The reason why these people are so willful is because in their hearts, there is self-confidence. It can turn its hands into clouds and turn its hands into rain, and it can make a person become a master, but it can also make it a prisoner in the blink of an eye, and there is no place to bury it.

This is the feeling that the strongest like the most. Rubbing these four fawns and listening to the prince's reasoning about the promotion of Confucian culture talked about below, it changed from the original deep thought to the ugly chatter.

waved his hand to interrupt the prince's eloquent conversation: "Forget it, let go of these big truths of yours for a while." The crown prince's concubine felt a sudden burst in his heart at that time, he immediately felt that the tone of his father's mouth was not good, and he immediately felt the instantaneous change of his father's mentality.

Especially when he saw his father's hand constantly rubbing the one that Lao Yu had offered, the four deer under the table that his father hated the most, he immediately felt the earth-shaking change in his father's mentality.

Knowing the son is better than the father, then is it the other way around? There is also some truth to it.

"Father, this time it was those Confucian scholars who played a role in determining the crown, so that they raised their arms and called on our people to be loyal to the king, so they participated in the counterinsurgency struggle against the Sima family, this is the victory of Confucianism, this is the foundation of the long-term peace and stability of our Zhongshan Kingdom, and my father must not fail to investigate." The prince knelt on the ground with a pale face, analyzing the profound truth in the middle, hoping that his father's sudden change of mentality could be changed again.

The proud are conceited, and the conceited are stubborn. In Zhongshan Wangcuo's heart, in fact, he still proudly believes that the credit for the success of this counterinsurgency is not those Confucian scholars, nor the prince in front of him, but himself, the wise and martial king.

Then he squinted at the prince who was kneeling on the ground arguing, and the disgust in his heart began to rise slowly: "Now start to establish your image among the ministers and people, so where does he put his position as his father?" If his decision is right, then he proves that he is wrong, the wise and martial king of Zhongxing. Courtiers can rebel, but as long as they promise them high officials, they can bow down and remain docile servants under their own hands. But the crown prince is already above 10,000 people under one person, and if he wants to rebel, then what kind of high-ranking officials can I promise him to be bribed? No, the only way to buy him is to give up the mat under his ass. Thinking of this, Wang Cuo yelled: "Enough, don't say your tricks again, consume our Zhongshan courage and bloody crooked reasoning, you can go back to me now, dismiss those Confucian students, and arrest me and go to prison for those 4 guys who bewitch the public." The crown prince and concubine were stunned on the spot at that time, and what made him even more cold in his heart was Wang Cuo's next order: "Release the queen mother, the queen, and the concubines of the Sima family in the harem and restore their diet and living treatment." Then he pondered for a moment: "Pass my order and tell the middle father that as long as he disarms the family, he will still be my helper, still my middle father, and my old man." As soon as such an order came out, all the ministers who participated in this counterinsurgency were shocked, and the crown prince and concubine felt a thunderbolt from the sky, and they felt that they were in an ice cellar.

Lao Hui Dynasty, can everyone here have a good end? After the autumn reckoning, these 4 words are tumbling in everyone's minds.
