Sima is still working hard for the empty position of the East Palace, since Sima Shang's funeral, he feels more and more that his authority has been challenged, he is in the power of the auxiliary government, who to set up as the prince, he only informed Sima Zhen before, but this time it is different, Sima Qin seems to have committed public anger, and the ministers have written against it, which makes him quite annoyed, but he is more determined to establish himself must put Sima Qin on the position of the East Palace, he wants to let the world know that he is still in charge of the government.

In order to block the mouth of Youyou, Sima specially came to the table and said: The East Palace is empty, and there is no one to inherit the clan. The great cause of the world, the position of the emperor, must be set up as a prince to consolidate the grand cause of the Jin family. Now that no one in the harem is pregnant and gives birth, it is not possible to leave the clan in the future and be interrupted, this is not the will of the ancestors, nor is it the long-term plan of the country. As for why he had to set up Sima Qin, he naturally also had a set of rhetoric, according to the etiquette law, the son of a brother is like a parent, Emperor Liu Biao of the Han Dynasty had no children, and was succeeded by Liu Xin, the king of Dingtao; After the death of Emperor Liu Zhao of the Han Dynasty, it was continued by Emperor Liu Hu of the Han Dynasty. This is the code of the previous kings, the practice of the previous generations. Besides, Sima Tan, who is handsome and wise, and was born to the wife of the former King of Qinghe, among the many grandchildren of the first emperor, he is still a grandson, and his identity is not precious. In addition, Sima Tan's maternal grandfather Zhou Hui enjoys the name of virtue and righteousness, and after Sima Qin inherits the throne, he will be able to make the country's fortunes last for a long time and live up to the hopes of the world.

This table is up to heaven, Sima just wants to win Sima's heartfelt consent, he is the emperor, as long as he nods and agrees, no one can refute this matter. But Sima Zhen didn't dare to call the shots, and spread Sima's meaning all over the court to solicit everyone's opinions. Sima thought that everyone would continue to refute, but Sima nodded first in agreement, and then few people objected fiercely.

Sima Qin finally returned to the East Palace as Sima wished, became the crown prince, and he proclaimed himself the crown prince and prince. Sima was very proud, thinking that he was the most important person in the court, and he wanted to make whoever he wanted to be the prince of the prince, where could he look at the faces of others.

In April, the weather was already very warm, Yang Xianrong took Nian'er, who was already eight months old, to walk in the garden, and for a whole winter, Xiao Nian'er was stuffed in the house, and finally saw the blue sky, green grass and red flowers, she "giggled" vigorously, and liked the scenery outside.

"It's warm," Yang Xianrong teased Nian'er and said, "In the future, my mother will take Nian'er out to play every day." She picked a flower, put it in front of Nian'er's eyes, and taught her over and over again: "This is a flower, a flower." ”

Suddenly, a figure jumped in front of them, it was a **-year-old boy, with sparse eyebrows, a small crown on his head, and a cyan robe on his body, he held a colorful butterfly in his hand, put it in front of Nian'er, and said, "Sister, look, this is a butterfly." ”

This child is Sima Tan, the prince of the East Palace, he is the age of being lively and active, even if Sima ordered him not to leave the East Palace often, he still couldn't be idle, and ran out when he got a vacancy. Not long ago, he accidentally broke into the Xianyang Hall and scared Yang Xianrong, but he seemed to be very close to Yang Xianrong and liked his little sister very much.

"You ran out again, and if you were discovered by King Qi again, I will punish you again." Yang Xianrong looked at Sima Qin with a smile, she also had a cordial feeling for this boy, this child was only one year older than Aqi, and he was just as naughty as Aqi. is very similar to Liu Yao's appearance when she first met him, especially those eyes, which are really likable.

"It's just a few words, I can stand it." Sima Qin didn't care about being punished, he raised his head and asked, "Niangniang, can I hug Nian'er?" ”

Yang Xianrong hesitated for a moment, and when she saw that Sima Tan's eyes were full of longing, she nodded. Sima Qin immediately stretched out his hands and hugged Xiao Nian'er in his small arms, and then he didn't dare to move, for fear that he would accidentally drop his sister to the ground.

Sima Tan hugged Nian'er for a while, seeing that his strength was not enough, Yang Xianrong motioned to the nurse to pick up Nian'er, and then said to Sima Tan: "Let's play." ”

Sima Tan ran away happily.

"Niangniang really likes this child." Su Chen said.

"He's just a kid." Yang Xianrong looked at Sima Qin's back, but it was a pity that he was born in this royal family, and he became someone else's chess piece at a young age, and he will become the chess piece that was discarded in the future. Yang Xianrong is very pitiful to Sima Tan, he doesn't know what his future fate will be, at this moment, she just wants to give this child a little warmth.

Sima Qin played with a few eunuchs for a while, then ran back to Yang Xianrong's side, raised his sweaty head, and asked, "Is there anything delicious in Niangniang's palace?" Am I a little hungry? ”

"Why doesn't Your Highness go back to the East Palace to eat?" Su Chen quipped on the side: "But is there anything special about the food in our Xianyang Palace?" ”

Sima Qin whispered: "

I can't get out when I go back to the East Palace. ”

Yang Xianrong smiled, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his head, and led him to the Xianyang Palace. Sima sincerely loves Yang Xianrong, because Yang Xianrong likes to eat sweets, so he specially matched the dessert masters of Xianyang Palace, the pastries made by these masters are sweet but not greasy, crispy and refreshing, and are quite popular with Sima Tan.

Sima Tan stuffed three or four pastries into his stomach, poured a large cup of tea, wiped his mouth and said, "It's delicious." ”

"If it's delicious, eat more." Yang Xianrong picked up another piece and handed it to Sima Tan.

Sima Tan shook his head and said, "My mother used to say that the middle of the day is the day, and the moon is eclipse, and everything is like this, so everything must be done in moderation, and you can't be greedy because the food is delicious. ”

Yang Xianrong was happy in his heart, the child's mother Zhou was born in everyone, and his grandfather Zhou Hui was known as a virtuous person, it seems that he was personally raised by his mother, so he is very smart and very polite. Yang Xianrong secretly thought to himself, it was really a mistake for King Qi to choose this child as the crown prince, as long as this child is well educated, he will not rely on his snort to survive in the future, and he will not tolerate his dictatorship.

"Do you miss your mother?" Yang Xianrong asked again.

Sima Qin's expression darkened, not long after his father went, his mother also went, and he was an orphan who was inexplicably taken to the palace, from the king of Qinghe to the crown prince, under the control of others, without a little freedom. Of course he misses his mother, and he thinks about it painfully.

"Niangniang," Sima Qin said to Yang Xianrong, "Do you know why I like to stick to you?" ”

Yang Xianrong shook his head.

"You're like my mother." Sima Qin said with a smile: "Especially when she laughs, my mother loves to laugh, she looks good when she laughs, even if the lightning and thunder outside, but as long as she smiles, it is like a warm sunshine, which can directly shine into my heart." ”

It turned out that this was the case, Yang Xianrong's heart was moved, she gently hugged Sima Qin, and said softly: "Although I am not your mother, from now on, you can come to me as long as you want, you can share happy things with me, and you can also talk to me if you have sad things." ”

Sima Tan was very moved when he heard this, he raised his head and asked, "Really?" ”

Yang Xianrong nodded: "You are the crown prince of the Jin Dynasty, I am the queen of the Jin Dynasty, who said that you are not my son?" ”
