Chapter 5: An Unexpected Lot
Chapter 5: An Unexpected Lot
The arrival of the emperor was indeed a bit unexpected, after all, Mingyue, as the youngest princess of the first emperor, had no power and connections to use, so many ministers of Sima Yue's family who came to the Taifu Mansion to celebrate were silent when they looked at each other.
Sima Chi doesn't think so, recently the rights of the imperial court are being withdrawn little by little, especially Zhou Fu, the Pingdong general of Shouchun, sent the head of Chen Min, the leader of the traitors who seized Wu County, to the capital, Daxi, this is a major event that can be sacrificed to the Taimiao, and Sima Yue, the old horseman, didn't know what went crazy and killed his aunt's son Zhou Mu and his brother-in-law Zhuge Jiu, which can be regarded as offending his mother and the scholar class, the emperor's dragon face is happy, although today is the apprenticeship of Princess Mingyue, But he couldn't participate at all, but he couldn't hold back his excitement and wanted to go to Sima Yue and humiliate these people who had seen him cry.
Liu Yu saw through Sima Chi's mentality, and just shook his head in his heart, naïve......
Sima Yue took the lead and knelt on the ground, and the ministers also knelt on both sides, long live the mountain, the emperor slowly got off the sedan chair, looked at the people who knelt on the ground around him, and felt comfortable in his heart, and said with a smile: "Zhongqing is flat."
Sima Yue's heart is greasy, but he doesn't dare to say anything, there are too many facts that have been upset recently, and he doesn't know how to be violent and ruthless, and he has completely lost his previous calmness, he only hopes that he is ready to arrange for Sima Rui, the evil king of Lang, and Wang Yan's clansman Wang Dao to go to guard Jianye and supervise Jiangnan, this is not wrong, this is the back road......
The emperor looked at Sima Yue's getting older and older, and he was really happy in his heart, but his face was not obvious, and he said slowly: "Taifu, let me see Princess Mingyue of my Sima family, I heard that this child is naturally extremely beautiful, I have been busy with political affairs, and I have no time to pay attention, I am really sorry for the first emperor." ”
Sima Yue had a feeling of wanting to vomit, but hurriedly asked Liu Yu to take Xiao Mingyue to the emperor to see.
As soon as I saw that it was time for me to appear, I opened my hand and said that I wanted Aunt Hong to hold it, and Aunt Hong walked over and hugged Liu Yu as soon as she saw the movements of this little guy, and slowly walked towards the emperor, I glanced at the teacher, and Liu Yu just nodded slightly.
Emperor Huai's eyes flashed with greed when he looked at me, but he quickly disappeared into invisibility, hugged me, looked around, and laughed loudly: "It is worthy of being the child of my Sima family, it is so delicate at such a young age, hahaha." Although Emperor Huai said it very easily, he was extremely shocked in his heart, such a small child, how could these eyes already hook the soul, demon, I don't know what kind of disaster it is when I grow up......
Emperor Huai didn't give me to Aunt Hong, and kissed me a few little faces very generously, everyone saw that I was so liked by the emperor, and they applauded, but my grievances were all good or not! There is still saliva, I can't stand it. But I didn't cry, my big eyes flashed at the emperor and winked, Emperor Huai was stunned on the spot, he was used to seeing beautiful women, and he was shocked by the eyes of a baby who was only 1 year old, how not it was frightening!
There were many people around who saw this scene, and the number of whisperers began to increase, and Sima Yue also saw it, and he only had a sneer ...... his heart.
Emperor Huai suddenly had an urge to raise this child by himself, but it was not easy to say it directly, after all, Mingyue was given to Sima Yue to raise by the first emperor in the court, so he had to hold back his mood, looked at Sima Yue, and said with a smile: "Taifu, Mingyue is also 1 year old, and it is time to catch lots, hehe." As soon as he said that, the emperor regretted it, how could there be a lot for a girl, isn't this ridiculous in ancient times?
Sima Yue and Liu Yu glanced at each other, and their eyes showed inexplicable meaning, so they could only agree to the emperor's absurd request. Instructed his subordinates to prepare, Liu Yu walked to the butler's side and whispered a few words softly, the housekeeper was also like an amnesty, and quickly ordered his subordinates to do the items for catching lots, there was really no such thing.
I'm quite curious, drawing lots, that is, when the boy is one year old, put a lot of gadgets on the table, let the child choose by himself, and the little hand stays on which object to stay still until he picks it up and does not let go, according to this method, the ancients hope to see the child's future ambition to cultivate. It's an ancient ritual.
Aunt Hong was also a little stunned, but when she saw my eyes shining with expectation, she looked at Liu Yu again, and saw that he was also a little expectant, so she felt a little more steady.
After a while, everyone followed the emperor to the room where the lot was drawn, and there were four items on the collapse, namely: a cherry-sized Dongzhu representing preciousness, a box of rouge representing makeup, a piece of silk paper representing innocence, and a seal representing power.
Emperor Huai looked at the first few items of these items, but there was nothing, pearls, rouge, and abacus were all acceptable, how could there be an extra seal?
Sima Yue also looked at Liu Yu suspiciously, but the latter just smiled and said nothing. Sima Yue really didn't understand what the hell this Liu Yu was doing, so he had to glance at me and was silent for a long time, and to be honest, he was also a little looking forward to it.
I was put on the collapse, there was no bed or table at that time, the scholar still knelt on the seat, and he only slept on the seat or the collapse, and he was already a person with status or wealth.
In order to hide my clumsiness, I can only use to climb, I looked at the four things in front of me, first put my hand on the pearl, this thing is really beautiful, and the people around me feel very natural when they see my hand falling on it, girl~
I touched Dongzhu and looked at the seal again. The moment I picked up the seal, Sima Yue's face twitched, and the corners of Emperor Huai's eyes also moved, but Liu Yu's eyes were smiling, I let go of the seal and opened the rouge box, Sima Yue and Emperor Huai seemed to be relieved, suddenly, I picked up the seal again and knocked it in the rouge, stained with a lot of red powder, I easily covered it against the silk paper, and the seal showed a faint pattern: dragon.
Holding a pearl in one hand and a silk paper printed with the shape of a dragon in the other, I grinned and glanced triumphantly in the direction of the teacher.
Liu Yu was also very surprised when he saw my behavior, I just wanted to try whether this girl would like women's things or rights, but I didn't expect it...... All have to ...... And the dragon and the pearl are the meaning of the dragon playing with the pearl, if this child is also a dragon, it is a double dragon playing with the pearl, but she is a girl......
This scene is so bewitching, the demon is so beautiful......
Emperor Huai and Sima Yue also opened their mouths wide and did not care about their images, they each looked around, looked at the surprised expressions of the people around them, and had only one thought in their hearts: they must find a way to get this girl, and they must not let others get involved, this child has grown up, it is definitely not simple, although it is a girl, but the girls who have been too beautiful in the past generations are all disasters, praise, Daji, etc., or a woman like Lu Pheasant or Empress Dowager Dou...... You must be guarded against, now that the foreign race is plundering, if it falls into the hands of the foreigner...... Well, although it is the same sect, why not cultivate it as a forbidden body since childhood? The two glanced at each other, and the deep meaning was actually understood by each other, and there was a burst of slander.
When these adults were worried about the sky, dirty and intrigued, I was sleepy......
I opened my hand to ask Aunt Hong to hug me, and Aunt Hong hugged me to say goodbye to everyone, and slowly walked towards her own yard, and the rest was to show my face again when the banquet was held in the evening, and the day passed like this.
The next day, on the main hall of the court
"Feng Yuzhang Wang Sima Quan, as the crown prince, amnesty to the world."
Sima Yue's face instantly became gloomy, Sima Quan is Sima Qin's younger brother, the emperor decided without consulting him, thinking of this Sima Yue's heart, he remembered the dog-like look of Sima Chi, who was still the emperor's younger brother that day, in his own house, and the hatred in his heart.
Back at the mansion, Sima Yue called Wang Yan, Liu Yu, and Xun Xi to his mansion.
Sima Yue clapped his hands, the singer retreated one after another, Liu Yu and Xun Xi knew that they were about to enter the theme, so they each sipped a little wine and said nothing.
Sima Yue looked at the three of them, and his heart was also troubled, these three people Liu Yu is good at scheming, and he is quite good at analyzing things, and he is promoted by himself to overcome public opinion, and he has the grace of knowing him; Xun Xi is good at military affairs, although he is greedy for money and lustful, but he is indeed a good hand at fighting, he does not want to die, he is called "Uncle Tu" and he is a brother who wants to worship several times; And Wang Yan is a real confidant, although he is good at talking, but there is no problem with character and loyalty, and he is a celebrity, known as "the female yellow in the mouth" is a good debater who can say that the wrong is also right, especially in terms of virtue and prestige, he is a person who cannot raise objections from all major ethnic groups, and he has absolute influence in the scholar class. So these three people are the three people he trusts the most now.
Sima Yue opened his mouth and said: "You also know that this king and the emperor have almost reached the point of incompatibility, I was blind to support him to ascend to the throne, and now I think about it, I am really angry with this king." ”
Sima Yue has always been the king of the East China Sea, but at that time, if he had an official position, he always called himself an official name, which seemed to be of high grade, and he would have no distance from the people of Shilin. Especially when you meet the emperor, you must not call yourself a king, but this time Sima Yue actually called this king and the emperor...... It seems that there are no more scruples......
The three of you, look at me, I look at you, they didn't say anything, they knew that Sima Yue had something to say next......
Sima Yue was silent for a while, then stood up from the banquet, slowly turned his back to the three people, looked at the map on the wall, and pondered slightly.
The crowd didn't dare to disturb, so they were silent for a while.
Sima Yue didn't look back at them, and slowly sat back in his place.
The three of them still lowered their heads and drank slowly, no one dared to speak first at this time, they had to wait for Sima Yue to speak his own thoughts, otherwise this person's character was very suspicious, and a little unhappiness would lead to death. Zhou Mu and Zhuge Jiuke are both his relatives, and they were killed on the spot because they helped Sima Qin say a few good words, although the three of them are Sima Yue's henchmen, but the three of them are also intriguing with each other, who wants to speak first without finding out.
The atmosphere was depressing
