"Because this is the only way, although Wang Dun will occupy Jiankang smoothly, but without Wang Dao's approval, Wang Dun will not dare to be the emperor, the final result can only be that Wang Dun get some benefits to withdraw the army, and then Sima Shao will gradually clean up Wang Dun, Wang Dun's fate is only defeat, victory is only temporary, so you don't have to worry, as long as the foundation of the Jin Dynasty is moved, Shi Le will not dare to drink the Yangtze River, this is where the hope lies."

"Big brother, I kind of understand, but Director Wang doesn't want Director Wang to be the emperor? If the world becomes the surname of the king, he will also be the one who benefits the winner. ”

"Yes, Director Wang is a member of the Wang family, but Director Wang is a person who is clearly inhuman, and he is also a very far-sighted person, when he tried to protect Sima Rui, it is enough to see that his vision is unique, how can such a person let the family be charged with rebellion, and once it fails, the Wang family will completely collapse, and Director Wang will never dare to bet!"

"So Director Wang is bent on Jin?"

"It can be said that by letting Director Wang be the vanguard, there can be less sacrifice, and the two brothers have not yet reached the point where they are fighting each other."

"Okay, let's wait and see, so where are we going to join the army?"

"I didn't want to go back to the Northern Expeditionary Army, I was afraid of touching the scene, but if I joined the battalion, how could I do the great cause of the Northern Expedition that I didn't complete, so let's go back to the Northern Expeditionary Army, as long as we participate, they will definitely take us in."

"Okay, let's go to Huaiyin, where the Northern Expeditionary Army is stationed."

"Let's go now!"

After Sima Shao returned to the palace, he met Wang Dao and led dozens of people from the clan to kneel outside the main hall, Sima Shao stepped forward and picked up Wang Dao and said: "Prime minister, please get up, why are you bothering?" ”

Director Wang didn't expect Sima Shao to come to persuade him, so he was grateful, and broke free and said: "Your Highness, the old minister is guilty, and our Wang family is guilty, so I don't dare to get up." ”

"Prime Minister, what are you guilty of, Wang Dun only wants to clear the king's side this time, and he does not raise the banner of rebellion, he is him, you are you, how can you defeat a piece, besides, this time Wang Dun raised troops, and he still has to rely on you to withdraw the army."

Director Wang couldn't help but stand up: "Your Highness, you really don't mean to blame?" ”

"No, not at all, you are still the prime minister of our Great Jin, if you really want to rebel against Wang Dun, you will not kneel here."

"Ah, Your Highness is really discerning, and his bearing is extraordinary, and he has the demeanor of a prince, which is really a blessing for me to be a great jin, and my Wang Dao dares not to do his best!"

"Okay, you can follow me into the imperial study to see my father."

"This ...... Emperor...... There is no will to see me. ”

"Prime Minister, it's okay, you just come in with me."

Wang Dao followed Sima Shao into the imperial study, Sima Rui saw that Wang Dao also came in, his face was displeased, but he still had to be polite: "Prime Minister, I am about to go out to see you......"

Sima Shao continued: "Father, Wang Dun's army, it is not about the Wang family, let alone the prime minister, the prime minister is very hard to ask for sins every day, please ask my father to forgive the sins of the Wang family first." ”

"This ......"

"Father, the prime minister is dedicated to working hard for the Great Jin, and he has never had two hearts, don't chill the prime minister's heart."

Only then did Sima Rui say with a straight face: "I have made a few mistakes!" Prime Minister, I forgive your royal family for their innocence, and you don't have to bother the clan to suffer with you in the future. ”

Director Wang knelt down and said, "Thank you, Emperor." ”

"Flat."

Sima Shao said: "Father, the most important thing at the moment is to let Wang Dun withdraw from the army, I have just visited Wang Dun's battalion, although Wang Dun's troops are prosperous, but there is no need to be afraid, as long as a person is willing to go out, then Wang Dun will retreat." ”

"Huh? Who is it? ”

"Father, it's the prime minister."

"Prime Minister?"

"Yes, father, if Prime Minister Wang Cheng can be the vanguard, Wang Dun will definitely be forced to withdraw from the army under the pressure of his brother, so that he will not be spared a vicious war, and the people of Jiankang will not have to suffer from the war."

Sima Rui glanced at Director Wang, and Director Wang immediately expressed his loyalty and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to do his best, please ask the emperor for permission!" ”

Sima Rui said: "Shao'er, although Wang Dao is dedicated to Jin and has no two hearts, but if Wang Dun insists on entering the army, the consequences may be unimaginable. ”

"Father, although he can win, but the internal fighting of the Great Jin Dynasty will not give Shi Le a chance to take advantage of, at that time, Shi Le will lead the army to cross the Yangtze River, at that time, we and Wang Dun who wins and who loses, the Great Jin will definitely die!"

Sima Rui blurted out: "Cheap Shile can't be ......" After speaking, he consciously lost his words, and changed his words: "Shile is indeed powerful, but Wang Dun also has to guard against it, is it possible that the prime minister will be able to turn the tide when he comes forward?" ”

"Father, after all, the prime minister and Wang Dun are brothers, we call it a salute before the soldiers, and the sons and daughters can retreat from the army when they see that the prime minister Wang can retire on this trip."

"Okay, then let the prime minister give it a try."

"Obey." Wang Dao bowed and said.

"I now appoint you as the Governor of the Vanguard in front of the battle, and lead the troops to crusade against Wang Dun!"

"Commandment."

"I will pull out your 10,000 guards to retreat from the enemy, you go and prepare."

"Yes, the minister retired."

As soon as Director Wang left, Sima Rui said: "Shao'er, will Director Wang join forces with Wang Dun when he goes!" ”

"No, according to Wang Dao's behavior, he has the heart to replace our Sima family, I'm afraid he will do it a long time ago, can we still stay until now."

"Yes, I think back then, the king and the horse shared the world, and I, the emperor, were all at the mercy of the Wang family, but in my heart, Wang Dao can be regarded as a loyal minister, and he really has no objection."

"Yes, let's see if the prime minister can withdraw this time."

"Father, however, you must also be mentally prepared, whether it is successful or not cannot negate the loyalty of Prime Minister Wang."

Sima Rui nodded suspiciously.

Wang Dao ordered the soldiers and horses to go to Stone City the next day, Wang Dun heard that Wang Dao came, and he came with troops, and immediately came to the front of the battle, to see Wang Dao, Wang Dao and Wang Dun met, Wang Dun pointed to the people and horses on both sides to flash to the side, Wang Dao stopped: "Although you and I are brothers, I am not here to reminisce, but to ask you to retire, no need to speak alone, just say anything." ”

Wang Dun also knew Director Wang's temperament, and persuaded him to rebel several times before, but Director Wang just disagreed, he said tentatively: "Big brother, the emperor no longer needs our Wang family, and he used a few traitors and villains to cut our fiefdom and military power, and it is clear that he wants to suppress our Wang family, and if this continues, the Wang family will probably be defeated!" ”

"Wang Dun, don't talk nonsense, our Wang family has been favored by the emperor and entrusted with great use, we should only think about serving the court, how can we have the slightest complaint."

"Big brother, I can't swallow this breath, this time the army is to kill Liu Kui and Diao Xie, the two traitors, to see if the emperor wants to cut my military power and fiefdom!"

"Wang Dun, the grace of our Wang family is already great enough, don't do anything unsubordinate, don't look at us as brothers, if you want to take a step forward, then cross over from my body first!"
