The predecessor of Jiankang City is Wudu Jianye City, and if it is pushed forward, it is the county seat of Moling in the Han Dynasty.

Moling County belongs to Danyang County, the county is a far county, the county is a small county, there are many swamps and wetlands in the territory, fertile land is scarce, and the corresponding population is not much. Until the end of the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains was in turmoil, the people migrated south, and began to develop the Jiangnan region on a large scale.

Sun Quan moved the old bricks and tiles of Wuchang Palace to Jianye, started from Taichu Palace in the north of the city, surrounded by 300 zhang, opened eight gates, and took the Shenlong Palace as the main hall. The descendants built the Zhaoyang Palace on the east side of the Taichu Palace, which was extremely extravagant, and took the Chitai Hall as the main hall. However, the palace was first completed, the Wang Lou boat came from the river, Wu Shi was defeated, Sun was captured, the Jin people demolished all the places where the palace was overrun, and the majestic palace was almost in ruins.

It was not until the "Five Horses Crossing the River" that the Kang Palace was rebuilt, but since it was no longer the imperial palace, but only the residence of the vassal king, the scale was naturally much smaller than that of the previous dynasty. The five kings each led several halls, separated by a powder wall from Sima Rui's throne, and occupied the Shenlong Palace, and the second-level Chitai Hall was owned by Sima Wang, the king of Xiyang.

In the autumn of the fourth year of Jianxing, the imperial court issued an edict to make the kings return to the domain, and Sima and other four kings left Jiankang City one after another. However, Sima Rui, the king of Langya, was the king of Danyang, worshiped Dazai, and still stayed in Jiankang City.

In addition, there is still a king in Jiankang City, that is, Sima Pei of Shao Ji's original East China Sea King's business, although he migrated to the king of Wuxing and gave five counties land, but with his young age, he can not be a vassal for the time being.

In fact, although Sima Di is seventeen years old, he has already performed the crown ceremony, and he has also "led" the Northern Expedition, theoretically speaking, he is an adult. However, on the same day, Liu Kui went to Chang'an and discussed with Pei Gai, the general of Bingzheng's chariot and cavalry (in fact, he bargained), and hoped to leave Sima Rui in Jiankang City on the grounds that Sima Ruibao loved this son.

Pei Gai naturally understood Liu Kui's true meaning, Sima Pei was young after all, and his father was not worried that he was traveling thousands of miles away in the East China Sea, so he discussed changing the domain to Wu Xing; But Wuxing is a prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is on the side of Danyang and Wu County, Sima Rui is called the King of Danyang, in fact, he is the lord of Jiangdong, and how can he be on the side of the couch, don't put a king, in order to thin his power?

To tell the truth, at that time, the land south of the Yangtze River was humble and barren, and even Sanwu belonged to the countryside in the eyes of the northerners, and it was like a world of land with three rivers, and there was no comparison at all. After all, Jiankang is the capital of Wu, and there are Nandu families who moved in, which is relatively prosperous, and Wuxing, which is a stone's throw away, is completely nameless and can be antagonized with Dayi. Pei Gai also wanted his aunt Concubine Donghai to be Concubine Wuxing now, Pei's brocade clothes and jade food, happy and peaceful, so he agreed to Liu Kui's invitation. On the one hand, Wuxing County Zhiwu Cheng chose a place to build a palace, and at the same time allowed Sima Di to temporarily suspend the feudal domain until he got married or even had children.

This King of Wuxing in the East China Sea was the last to "arrive" or "appear" in Jiankang City, so the Wu palace room had no place and was forced to set up a mansion in Kaiyangmen. After the other four kings became vassals, Sima Rui invited Concubine Pei to lead Sima Pei into the palace and live in the old Chitai Palace.

The scale of Wuxing Wangfu is about half of Danyang Palace, but Concubine Pei has no intention of repairing it, she transported the collection of the palace to the north, and funded her nephew Pei Gai, so when it comes to the grandeur of the palace and the gorgeousness of the living room, it is far less than the Danyang Palace.

In the autumn of the fifth year of Jianxing, the palace of Wuxing suddenly removed all decorations, covered the door with plain tents, the lamps and candles were not red, and the utensils were not decorated......

This is really a big blow to Concubine Pei.

Pei's real age is actually not a few years older than Pei Gai, she was married to Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea, as her successor, this is a complete political marriage, and she herself has no sense of autonomy at all.

Although the Wenxi Pei family is a high-ranking family in the world, he is a prince and a prince and a member of Taiwan Province (Pei Xiu Shangshu Ling, Pei Shangshu Zuo Servant Shot, Pei Kaizhong Shu Ling), but unfortunately the main branch is not numerous, and when Pei is killed by Sima Lun, the two sons are young and it is difficult to shoulder the heavy responsibilities of the family. As a result, Wen Xi Pei joined forces with King Langya and chose Sima Lun, the king of the East China Sea, as the investment object, first showing sincerity through marriage Pei became a political tool of the family just because of the right age.

Before she got married, she naturally fantasized that her husband was brave, and with the help of Pei and Wang, she should be able to sweep away the captives and pacify the world...... However, the world was not unsatisfactory, but completely unexpected: Sima Vietnam fought in the north, and the horse did not stop, but the country was declining day by day, and large areas of land fell into the hands of the enemy; For this young, beautiful and well-informed stepfamily, Sima Yue only maintained the etiquette on the surface, but in fact there was no love between husband and wife, and there were even few things about husband and wife

Sima Yue, who is already anxious about war and political strife, is middle-aged, how can he have the interest and energy to care for his wife? In fact, he has long been dead......

And even the family affairs of the King of the East China Sea, Pei's family can't make a decision in a word. Sima Yue had a son-in-law named Sima Bi, who was willful, jealous and indulgent, not only could Pei not manage him at all, but Sima Bi also killed Pei's brother out of personal grudges, and Pei Yao, who was originally cited by Sima Yue as his right-hand man......

Pei Shi can't say that he washes his face with tears all day long, but he can't frown, his diet is tasteless, and there is no one to talk about Sima Yue's rare home, even if he comes back, his face is full of dark clouds, not to mention the living, even acquaintances have an attitude of not approaching. She originally thought that she would die of depression, just like many aristocratic women in history, and her life couldn't be more miserable, right? Who wanted Sima Yue to go out of the town in Yuxiang, when the news of her death came, Sima Bi took her hostage and left Luoyang, wanting to return to the East China Sea, and then Yu Lu was actually met by Hu Qi!

When Sima Bi died, I don't know why, Pei secretly gave birth to an inexplicable pleasure. But she still feels that the future is uncertain, she has nothing to rely on, her hometown has fallen into her hands, her seniors, brothers have died or scattered, and the saddest thing is that she and Sima Yue have been married for several years, but they have not been able to get a son and a daughter......

In fact, Pei Shi had already held the will to die at that time, and the reason why she secretly released Pei Gai from the stable, perhaps subconsciously, was also hoping that after the matter was revealed, Hu Shuai would be angry and would directly execute her, so as to avoid endless pain from then on. But I never expected that the nephew, who had only met once or twice during the clan sacrifice and had no family affection at all, would risk his life to return to Huying, and in turn wanted to save himself......

Days and nights in the Hu camp, whenever Pei saw his nephew's slightly immature face, he didn't know why, and his mood would relax, as if it was a towering tree that could shelter from the wind and rain. Before that, she occasionally fantasized that if she was not the daughter of the Pei family, but the daughter of the Wang family, or the Langya Wang family who was attached to the king of the East China Sea, but the Pei Kunzhong entered the Langya King Curtain and moved south from it, how good would it be...... After that, she couldn't help but fantasize that if her deceased husband had half the shrewdness of this nephew, as well as patience and love for herself, her life would not be so miserable.

After fleeing south to Jiankang, Pei also tried to speak many times, wanting to leave Pei should in the world, and they had their own Sima family's worries, but my aunt and nephew lived in Jiangdong. However, every time he happened to bump into Pei Cai's bright eyes, he didn't know whether it was a sense of responsibility or ambition, which made Pei Shi swallow his words back.

Hu Yingzhong's experience, the most important thing is to plot in every way to escape from Jiangnan, so that Pei Shi realized that his nephew is a bird soaring high in the sky, even if he occasionally lands, his eyes are always proud of the clouds. Those who can be kept in captivity in small ponds are wild birds, not Honghu also; If he was to be in the company of the Wild Bird, how could he be happy? He saved my life, so that I knew that there was still family affection in the world, and how could I make it uncomfortable?

However, he is just a wild bird in the pool, and the bird will eventually fly high, leaving himself alone, how can he survive? After repeated self-psychological construction, Pei finally shifted his mind from Pei Gai to Sima Li.

Sima Pei was young and undertook court training, rarely good at poetry and writing, and almost did not have the same background as a noble son, as well as the stubbornness of a young boy of the same age, so he succeeded as the king of the East China Sea, worshiped under Pei's knees, and quickly won Pei's love. Especially after Pei Gai crossed to the north, Pei Shi threw all her body and mind on this adopted grandson, arching like a treasure, as if in Sima Qi's body, she saw her own value and saw her life goal.

However, just when Pei's family was painstakingly trying to choose a good family affair for her adopted grandson, she even wrote to Pei Gai in Chang'an, asking him to recommend the famous lady of the Central Plains (Langya Wang's cold face is not going to be touched again, how can the rest of the overseas Chinese, and even Nan Raccoon Dog love Concubine Sun for me?) Sima Di died suddenly at a young age.

Pei Shi cried for a few days, and the whole person lost weight, and she was only thirty years old, and white hair grew on her sideburns in ten days. The saddest thing in life is that you have just seen a ray of light in the darkness, but God has taken back this light in an instant...... Pei Shi gave birth to the will to die for the second time in her short life, but she had no plan to die. The dignified Concubine Wu Xing, if she hangs herself and swallows gold to commit suicide, what will others think? Who would believe that the death of a grandson can make a grandmother die, will there be any inexplicable rumors? If Pei Gai or Sima Rui are affected by this rumor, it will be difficult for him to redeem his guilt by his death.

She even wanted to leave Jiankang and go to Chang'an to seek refuge in Pei Gai. However, there is no etiquette to be attached to the nephew as a married aunt, unless the entire husband's family is dead. It's a pity that this Sima family is estimated to die endlessly...... Truly hateful!

Just when Pei Shi was at a loss and felt that he had nothing to love, Director Wang came to condole, but put forward a good suggestion or should I say, find a reason for Pei Shi to live.

Today, Pei's family lives in the main hall of Chitai, waiting for this reason to come.

After the eunuch reported, Pei stood up and greeted him at the door, only to see Sima Rui, the king of Danyang, holding a seven or eight-year-old child, slowly coming. Seeing Pei standing by the door, Sima Rui hurriedly stepped forward, bowed deeply, and said, "Uncle." Pei hurriedly returned the salute: "The king doesn't have to be so ......" and then looked at the child: "This is Chong'er?" ”

Sima Rui replied, "This is my nephew's third son, Sima Chong." Then he pressed Sima Chong's little head and ordered: "Hurry up and salute your grandmother." ”

Sima Chong knelt and kowtowed, saying "Grandmother." Pei Shi stretched out his right hand and gently lifted the child's face, but he couldn't find the slightest shadow of Sima Qi when he looked at it carefully.

This is natural, Sima Pei and Sima Chong are not the same mother, plus Sima Pei was thirteen years old when he succeeded the king of the East China Sea, and this Sima Chong, according to Wang Dao in the past, is only seven years old, although he has the same father, his appearance may not be good.

However, Pei only needs a reason to live at present, and she believes that as long as she lives, she will be able to see the day when Pei should calm the world and rebuild the society. I have also studied with Pei Gai in the past, why is the world chaotic, and why is Hu Wei rising? Pei Gai believes that a large part of the reason is that the feudal state is widely feuded, and the vassal king is in charge of the government internally and the military power outside. Pei Gai said: "If the world decides, the old system should be changed, or all the kings will not be able to command the army, just like the Cao Wei system, or simply fake their titles, and they will all be confined to the capital." ”

Maybe on that day, I can follow King Wu Xing back to Luoyang, so that I can often meet my nephew, can this new King Wu Xing be Sima Chong? If you look for it in today's Jiankang City, it may only be Sima Chong......

Sima Rui only has three sons, of course, it is impossible to snatch his eldest son Sima Shao. And it is said that the child looks like his mother, with yellow hair and a high nose, so Pei will think of Shi Le and other Hu Shuai, and he really doesn't want to accept it under his knees.

It stands to reason that Sima Chong should call Pei "uncle and grandmother", but Sima Rui directly asked him to call him "grandmother", which shows that this matter is not only Wang Dao's suggestion, but also recognized by Sima Rui, and ...... Sima Rui had to make this happen. Pei Shi was helpless, so he had no choice but to caress Sima Chong's little face, smiled pretendly, and said: "This is very good, since Shao is the brother Wang Ye." ”

The matter is settled, Pei Shi let Sima Rui's father and son into the palace, she held the still ignorant child in her arms, and casually exchanged a few words with Sima Rui. Sima Rui looked in poor spirits, his face was sallow, his eyes were dark, and he looked very tired, Pei Shi asked: "Could it be that the toddler is about to leave his knees, and the king is reluctant?" ”

Sima Rui shook his head: "His brother died young, so he is naturally sad; Ran Chong'er has to inherit the love of her uncle, how can I be reluctant? The haggard face is because of state affairs...... The politics of Jiangdong are difficult to hold on to ......"
