At the beginning of the lanterns, Jiankang City, in the Taichu Palace, the lights are bright and brilliant, and they are extremely gorgeous.

In the palace, the palace veil is flying, the colorful skirt is fluttering, and the graceful figure of the palace maid is performing the song and dance of the prosperous era to the fullest.

The sound of ancient music is even more intoxicating, and all kinds of laughter and laughter are connected.

At this time, on the main hall of the palace, the two sides were full of gorgeously dressed people.

With smiles on their faces, they were enjoying the song and dance performance.

Most of these people are the confidants of the Son of Heaven, including the Zhongshu Ling Wang Guobao.

The banquet is going on, and the palace maids who dance and play in the middle have changed several shifts, and the atmosphere at the banquet has been very warm.

All kinds of elixir and jade dew, fairy fruit delicacies are constantly sent like flowing water.

At the banquet, Sima Yao, the Son of Heaven, laughed wantonly like no one, and the smug look on his face could not be concealed.

In the past few days, the Son of Heaven has been in a pretty good mood.

In fact, since the beginning of the Northern Expedition, he has been in a good mood.

The armies of the east and west fought successively, and successively regained Qingyan and soldiers in Wuguan, and fought the Xianbei people and Qiang people.

Of course, if it was just a front-line victory, it would not be enough to make Sima Yao so complacent.

The key is that this Northern Expedition is different from the victory in Weishui, which was planned by him, the son of heaven.

What's more, Liu Yu, the striker who swept Qingyan and drank the Yellow River, was also personally promoted by him.

All these made Sima Yao extremely proud, and he could finally confidently declare himself to be the master of ZTE.

Unlike before, whenever the victory of the river was mentioned, people said that it was the credit of the Xie family, and it had nothing to do with him.

With the backing of solid achievements, Sima Yao is full of confidence and boasts that he has surpassed the Qin Emperor and Han Wu.

In the court, he not only shouted and drank to the ministers, but also commanded the attitude of the king of Huiji.

Looking at the invincible Son of Heaven, a trace of gloom flashed in the eyes of Wang Guobao sitting in the corner.

He understood that the Son of Heaven had the power of today, and it was not unrelated to the great cause of the Northern Expedition, which was in a good situation at present.

At the beginning of the Northern Expedition, the two Jin armies won successive battles, and good news poured into Jiankang like no money.

In less than a month, the Jin army not only recovered the two states of Qingyan, but also marched under the city of Wuguan, seeing that they would attack Guanzhong and wipe out Houyan.

The successive victories plunged the entire Southern Dynasty into a boil, and the Son of Heaven couldn't wait to set up a banquet in the palace and drink with a group of henchmen.

Unlike Wang Xun, Xu Miao and other henchmen of the Son of Heaven, Wang Guobao seems to be preoccupied and sits alone in the corner.

In the middle of the banquet, accompanied by soft vocal music, the Son of Heaven smiled heartily: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Great Jin Dynasty has been established for nearly a hundred years, during which the royal division has made many northern expeditions, but none of the results achieved can be compared with today. ”

"It is said that this celebration banquet should not be held now, but should wait for the return of the soldiers of the Northern Expedition."

"But the war in the north is going well, and I am so happy that I can't help but want to drink and celebrate.

"As the saying goes: it is better to be happy alone than to be happy in all! Therefore, I have specially invited you to celebrate together. ”

"Next, everyone doesn't need to be polite, and they have fun."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The crowd below thanked them in unison.

The Son of Heaven laughed, picked up the wine glass, and raised his head to drink.

Everyone below stood up in unison, bowed to the Son of Heaven with their wine glasses, and then drank the wine in the glass.

After that, everyone drank freely, and laughter continued to sound in the palace.

The Son of Heaven sat on the top, with a smile on his face, watching the palace maid's performance, nodding with satisfaction, holding the dragon chair and knocking gently.

Of course, Sima Yao has reason to be complacent, after all, the most brilliant person in this Northern Expedition is Liu Yu.

Thinking that Liu Yu only relied on more than 10,000 people to sweep Qingyan, and beat Hu Lu with his head and rats, which greatly increased his face.

In the midst of laughter, the Son of Heaven suddenly saw the Wang Guobao in the corner, and couldn't help but think about other things.

As for Wang Guobao, he does not plan to abandon it, and will keep it for reuse, so as to contain Wang Gong and his party in the future.

After all, after the elimination of Sima Daozi's party, the Son of Heaven should be worried that the power of the court will fall into the hands of Wang Gong.

Wang Gong was born in the Jinyang Wang family, and once he holds power, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not become the second Wang Dao and Xie An.

At this time, Wang Guobao, who is at odds with Wang Gong, will play an important role.

However, since Wang Guobao was originally Sima Daozi's party, he was not very relieved.

Even if Wang Guobao was conscientious after taking refuge, he still didn't dare to fully trust the other party.

He felt that he still needed to knock the other party again, so that he could entrust Wang Guobao with a heavy responsibility.

Thinking of this, Sima Yao stretched out his hand to summon a small yellow door and whispered a few words.

But seeing that Xiao Huangmen received the message of the Son of Heaven, he hurried to Wang Guobao's side, and told the other party that the Son of Heaven had an invitation.

Wang Baoguo hurriedly got up, picked up his wine glass and came to the Son of Heaven.

The Son of Heaven smiled suddenly, and deliberately mentioned with wine: "Wang Qing is a person who knows the times, don't let me down." ”

Boom! Wang Guobao was like being hit on the head, his brain shut down all of a sudden, and he couldn't react.

What does the Son of Heaven mean by this? Could it be that you have discovered what you are planning?

Wrong! Wang Guobao immediately rejected this idea.

If the Son of Heaven really discovered the conspiracy, I am afraid that he would have been dismantled by this time.

Wang Guobao said with a look of trepidation: "The minister accepts the grace of His Majesty, and he should repay His Majesty wholeheartedly." ”

"Hahaha, I don't care about your previous mistakes, as long as you are loyal to me wholeheartedly in the future, I will be treated favorably."

"Your Majesty is magnanimous, and your ministers are grateful." Wang Guobao said pretendedly.

"Wang Qing, this time your credit is not small, when the opportunity is suitable in the future, how about I let you be Zaifu?"

Seeing Wang Baoguo's stunned look, Sima Yao thought that the other party was happy and stupid, but he didn't care.

He leaned forward, took Wang Guobao's arm, and said earnestly: "That younger brother of mine only knows how to indulge in wine all day long. ”

"Aiqing said, how can I trust the burden of a country to the hands of an alcoholic?"

"In the past, the situation forced me to let the king of Huiji take charge of the central power."

"But it's different now, the current situation in the Northern Expedition is very good, and a prince of wine and meat is no longer suitable to serve as the chief assistant of the Great Jin."

"I plan to let King Huiji retire after the end of the Northern Expedition, and I intend to let Aiqing take over, are you willing?"

"I am willing to smear my liver and brain to repay Your Majesty's grace."

"Well, Qing's intentions, I know it, and I hope to make persistent efforts."

Wang Guobao returned to his seat in a daze, and was blown by the cold wind, and suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and it turned out that his back had already been penetrated by cold sweat.

He carefully recalled the conversation he had just had with the Son of Heaven, and obviously found that there was something in the Son of Heaven's words.

At first, he didn't quite understand, but after his mood calmed down, it suddenly dawned on him, and it turned out that the Son of Heaven had killed Sima Daozi.

However, what Wang Guobao didn't understand was that this was the Son of Heaven deliberately testing him? Or do you really have this heart?

At the next banquet, Wang Guobao sat among the courtiers, looking absent-minded.

He knew very well that if King Huiji was really cleaned up by the Son of Heaven, he would definitely not have good fruits to eat.

All plots will be discovered, and the lightest will be the case with the extermination of the family.

As soon as he thought of this, Wang Baoguo couldn't wait to fly to the Huiji Palace, and discuss countermeasures with Sima Daozi.

The feast lasted until midnight, when it was over.

At this time, Tianzi's face was red, his eyes were hazy, and he still drank one cup after another.

Seeing that the time was not early, the ministers, who were already drunk, staggered up and said goodbye to the Son of Heaven and left.

……

After the banquet, Sima Yao, the Son of Heaven, returned to the harem drunk.

At present, among the harem, the most favored person by Sima Yao is Zhang Guiren.

Don't look at Zhang Guiren's level is not high, but he is beautiful, the key is that he has a good amount of wine, and he has a fight with the drunkard Sima Yao.

It is precisely by virtue of being able to drink that even if Zhang Guiren is almost thirty years old, he still pleases Sima Yao very much.

After returning to the harem, the Son of Heaven felt that he had not enjoyed it just now, so he remembered Zhang Guiren again, so he asked Zhang Guiren to drink with him.

It happened that Zhang Guiren was not feeling well today, and his alcohol consumption was greatly reduced, and after drinking for a while, Zhang Guiren began to vomit.

Perhaps the recent successive victories in the Northern Expedition made Sima Yao's mentality a little inflated, and he actually bit Zhang Guiren and insisted on forcing her to drink.

Later, Zhang Guiren couldn't stand it anymore and resolutely refused to drink again.

But Sima Yao still didn't give up, and shouted wantonly: "I am the emperor, and everyone in the world has to listen to me." ”

"I let you drink, but you don't drink, you are resisting the decree, and resisting the decree is a big sin."

Zhang Guiren is not good at stubble, and snorted coldly: "The concubine just doesn't drink, see what you can do with me." ”

Sima Yao sneered and said, "If you don't drink today, I will beat you to the cold palace tomorrow." ”

"In this harem, there is nothing else, but there are so many beautiful women, do you really think I can't live without you?"

In the end, under the persecution of Sima Yao, Zhang Guiren still endured the discomfort and drank the wine.

Seeing Zhang Guiren succumb to his own obscenity, the Son of Heaven was complacent and thought that this was a good start.

It won't be long before Sima Daozi will choose to surrender like Zhang Guiren in front of him.

But how did he know that he had lost his words twice after drinking today, and he had laid the disaster of killing himself.
