Long before the incident, Liu Song knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was wise and martial, not to mention the style of Taizu Sima Yi, but it should be more of the style of Wei Wu.

Emperor Wu Sima Yan died, Yang Jun controlled the government, and Jia Nanfeng wanted to bring down Yang Jun when he was constrained everywhere. But the DPRK and China are all Yang Party, and the only way to bring down Yang Jun is foreign aid. Jia Nanfeng's first thought was Sima Liang, the king of Runan, and asked him to enter Beijing to obey his orders. However, Sima Liang felt that Yang Jun was powerful, and it was more likely that he would fail to enter the queen of Beijing as a pawn, so he refused Empress Jia's order.

So Empress Jia contacted Sima Wei, the king of Chu, Sima Xuan, the king of Andong, and Sima Yun, the king of Puyang. These three people are a few years older than Sima Shu, they are really high-spirited age, where are they willing to sit in the fiefdom and worry about the city. Jia was later killed, and several people hit it off and happily entered Beijing.

Liu Song was one of the people who entered Beijing with Sima Yun, the king of Puyang.

When Sima Yun conspired with Empress Jia, Liu Song unexpectedly met the crown prince Sima Shu.

Liu Song really didn't expect that a thirteen-year-old child would set up a bureau to lure him into the urn, and he was arrested in the East Palace after a conflict with the prince.

When he arrived at Donggong, Tai personally untied Liu Song's rope, and pleaded: "The previous arrest of the prime minister was to avoid the eyes and ears of the current dynasty, it is really a last resort, please forgive Xiangguo and save my life!" ”

Liu Song was very surprised and asked, "Why did the prince say this?" ”

Sima Shu said: "The three kings entered Beijing for Empress Jia to kill Yang Jun, Yang Jun deserved to die, but Empress Jia was cruel, and his ambition was bound to be more rampant. Dare to ask who can save my life at this time? ”

Sima Shu's words hit the nail on the head, Liu Song's eyes froze, and then doubts suddenly arise!

The crown prince is only thirteen years old, these words are not something that can be said at this age, could someone teach the prince to say this? Who will it be?

Liu Song didn't know what was hidden behind it, so how dare he rashly agree, and said, "Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say this?" The crown prince has a noble status, and he is protected by important ministers in the court. The emperor has just succeeded to the throne and has no other heirs, and the position of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai. Although the clan is powerful, it is still inferior to the forbidden army, at this time, who dares to be unfavorable to the prince, and who can be unfavorable to the prince? ”

"Is the Prime Minister suspicious that someone taught me to say these things?"

Without waiting for Liu Song to answer, Sima Shu continued: "If I were you, I would have doubted it, but I didn't. Even Emperor Taizu praised me for being smart, but it was groundless! The Prime Minister does not need to doubt it! The reason why I hide it is because if I reveal my wisdom before others, I will be jealous of the princes of the clan and the queen.

If I show my true face, who in this world can tolerate me? The more the princes of the clan and the queen are jealous, the more they want to get rid of me. As the saying goes, guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend, and the palace is fledgling, where can you deal with the ubiquitous dark arrows! I'm afraid I'll lose my life before I succeed to the throne! ”

"It is true that as the prince said, if you continue to feint madness, you can save your life! Why bother looking for me? ”

"The Minister of State is proficient in the law and order, and has also served as a court lieutenant. Even the first emperor praised the prime minister of the country as comparable to Zhang Shizhi of the Western Han Dynasty, and he was the master of the current Legalists. We should know that the stability of the country depends on the existence of established laws to follow, and the chaos in the world is really due to lawbreakers.

Although the court is calm now, there are relatives inside who interfere in politics, and there are kings peeping outside. The powerful ministers of the DPRK and China formed a party for personal gain, and the foreign families joined forces to make profits. Whether it is Empress Jia or Yang Jun, or the clan, they all want to be lawbreakers. Once the chaos started, the kings divided by Emperor Taizu Wu of my Taizu Wu stole the throne one after another. So what? ”

"What will happen then? Of course, it's chaos in the world! ”

"What about after the chaos in the world?"

"Lives are in ruins!"

"Yes! Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, there have been a hundred years of strife, and I have shown that the vitality of the Yan Han Dynasty has not been resurrected, and the people have withered. Will such a painful lesson be repeated? The prime minister is a descendant of the dignified Yan Han Dynasty after Liu Xu, the king of Guangling in the Western Han Dynasty, how can he bear to turn a blind eye? ”

"And even more than that!"

Sima Shu said impassionedly: "Today's situation is different from the previous dynasty, now Xianbei, Xiongnu, Qiang Zhuhu has grown, comparable to the Xiongnu in the early Han Dynasty, once my Central Plains is in turmoil, Zhuhu takes the opportunity to go south, I have no male lord in the Central Plains comparable to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, what will happen?" ”

Sima Shu's eyes grew red, tears overflowed his eyes like a river flooding, and his cold words rang like a cold wind: "That will Shenzhou Lu sink, and Huaxia will no longer be well-dressed!" The people of Kyushu are suffering, and the descendants of our generation will be sent to the left! ”

Liu Song was shocked by his words!

Seeing that Liu Song's mind was snatched, Sima Shu finally said his purpose: "You and I should work together to exterminate the lawbreakers from the source, so that there can be a glimmer of life!" ”

Liu Song's heart was shocked, the trance just now was gone, and he suddenly understood Sima Shu's purpose. The monarch and the ministers work together, this is to hand over the important task of the country, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has great ambitions and is ready to recruit himself as his confidant. But he has no entanglement with the prince, why did he choose me! Liu Song asked inexplicably: "The world's talent is the best in the car, why me?" ”

Sima Shu said: "First, the prime minister of state is proficient in laws and regulations, and his talent is born to calm chaos and maintain stability. Second, the prime minister has no children, and there will be no suspicion of stealing the country, so the monarch and the ministers can help each other without doubt. Third, the prime minister is old and I am young! ”

Liu Song's eyes froze, and his doubts disappeared.

Being young is capital, and who lives longer and younger undoubtedly has an advantage over the elderly. In this way, Sima Shu is not afraid of being in power at all, and after the law is completed, the death of the old minister can naturally be the way of the whole monarch and minister!

This time, the two talked all night, and only the two of them knew what they talked about!

When Sima Yun handed over the money and asked Liu Song to come back, Liu Song's eyes were deep and haggard, and he slept for two days before he recovered. Sima Yun's heart said that the prince really didn't know how to respect the teacher as rumored, and he didn't suspect that his henchmen had been hollowed out by Sima Shu.

After Liu Song returned, he participated in Jia Nanfeng's action to bring down Yang Jun as Sima Yun's force, and was ordered to guard the palace. This is the same as the prince's prediction. Jia Nanfeng probably never dreamed that the person who wanted to deal with her the most was right under his nose! Now, the mastermind Jia Hou has been imprisoned, and Sima Xuan, the king of the clan who participated, is dead, and the next step is to cut off Sima Wei.

Without Sima Shu's reminder, Liu Song said: "Now Sima Wei, the king of Chu, doesn't know that something has happened in the palace, I'll go and bring him to the palace!" ”

Sima Shu said: "Okay! Pei Wei temporarily guards the palace on your behalf, be careful yourself, if he doesn't come to force it, you must come back! ”

Liu Song and Pei Wei arranged to capture Sima Wei, Sima Shu looked at Yang Jue and Yang Ji, and the cooperation of several people was indispensable to end up. Now the situation is generally under control, but the queen is still needed a person to take the blame for being imprisoned and killed!

This person has already been selected, and it is Yang Jue, who is still in custody.

Sima Shu grinned and said, "It's not too much for my mother to be promoted to the main palace mother in the world!" ”

Yang Jue, Yang Ji, Yang Zhi and several others glanced at each other, and finally looked at Yang Jue.

The snake can't do it without a head, Yang Jun is dead, and the Yang Party is not extinguished. Since the prince did not take down the Yang Party at the same time, he had his considerations.

If Sima Wei also died in this palace change, then one of the ministers of the palace would die, one queen would be deposed, and two kings would die. Such a big thing is a felony, and someone has to bear the blame.

Yang Dang is the best person to take the blame!

This kind of thing must be taken by someone from the Yang Party, and whoever bears it will become the target of the public, and the slightest carelessness will cost his life.

Yang Jue is Yang Jun's younger brother, Yang Ji is Yang Jun's third brother, and Yang Jue has become the most suitable candidate at this time.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty, Yang Jue used Zhao Kuo's example to ask for an edict of exoneration to save his life, but in the end, he still inevitably became the target of public criticism. Empress Jia's incident has proved that the edict is a dead letter, and now it is being held by the prince, does Yang Jue want to refuse? I'm afraid that if you don't agree, the entire Yang family will be overturned!

It is better for one person to die than to destroy a clan, Hongnong Yang is a descendant of the Spring and Autumn Sheep Tongue Clan, which has been inherited in the Han Dynasty for nearly a thousand years, and the honor and disgrace of the family are above all else for Yang Jue, and Yang Jue has no choice for the family!

Yang Jue instantly figured out the clue: Xie Jiu is Sima Shu's mother, and now that Empress Jia has fallen, Sima Shu chose his biological mother as the queen to preside over the palace, not only to replace Empress Jia, but also to set aside the Empress Dowager Yang Zhi and completely put Sima Zhen under control. All this is really done without leakage, it's hard to believe that it is from the hand of the young prince!

Yang Jue smiled bitterly: "The Xie family is virtuous and virtuous, and it deserves such an honor!" ”

Sima Shu said again: "Pei Yu, Liu Song, and Zhang Hua are all talented and can take on great responsibilities, how about you recommend one or two?" ”

"Who's supposed to be?"

"Pei Yu is the general of the Central Protector Army, Wei Qian takes over the post of Taifu, and Liu Song is in charge of the palace guard."

Yang Jue said secretly: Sure enough! Yang Jun has no scruples, relying on the position of the general of the Central Protector Army to control nearly 200,000 forbidden troops, and now the prince will of course feel at ease if he gets it. Jia Nanfeng was deposed, and Pei Wei could only rely on the prince, and he took over the forbidden army for the prince to reassure the prince. Wei Qian is known for his prestige and outstanding talents, he is the prince and young master, and he is as stable as Mount Tai in the court. But why did Liu Song get the trust of the prince?

Yang Jue had doubts and said tentatively: "Pei Song is the queen's person, and Liu Song is the person of the king of Huainan, there is no suitable reason to show his feet, right?" ”

Sima Shu was dissatisfied: "What's wrong with you holding the prince hostage to force the palace and pushing a prince's person to the front desk as a shield?" As for Pei Yu, what is so difficult to understand that after the fall of Jia, he took refuge in you? Liu Song, on behalf of the King of Huainan, wants to lose both with you, and you are not happy, you have reached an agreement with each other, and you have to agree to guard the last gate for the clan, is there anything wrong? As for me, I was just tricked into the palace by you to sleep tonight! ”

Yang Jue said in his heart: You have already listed all the reasons for the crimes! It's really worthy of pretending to be a pig!

But Yang Jue didn't dare to say this!

Yang Jun's death was because he was too powerful, and it was two things to say if he didn't promise to get out of the palace alive! Although he handed over the forbidden army this time, he bought back a life, and he could only hold the prince firmly from now on!

The means are really spicy!

Yang Jue sighed secretly in his heart and nodded: "No, follow the prince's will!" ”
