Seeing that Director Wang was protecting Sima Rui like this, Wang Dun did not answer Director Wang's question, but asked, "Ah Long, is it worth it for you to protect him like this?" ”

Wang Daodao: "He is a king, we are ministers, if you kill him today, you will fall into the infamy of killing the king through the ages, not only those royal family members will not give up, the rest of the clan will also regard the elder brother as a rebel, once they hear that His Majesty has been killed, they will definitely rise up and attack him." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info This time, the elder brother only brought five hundred horsemen in a hurry, even if the Yulin army outside the palace was dispatched by the elder brother, but even if these people were added together, I am afraid that they would not be able to compare with the army stationed outside the city, right? ”

After Wang Dun listened to Director Wang's words, he was stunned in his heart, which he had never thought about. When Wang Dun put his sword on Sima Rui's neck, he only thought about one thing, and that was to kill Sima Rui. As for everything else, he was left behind.

It was Director Wang's words that woke up Wang Dun, and after thinking about it carefully, his situation was exactly as Director Wang said.

Wang Dun suddenly remembered that this was Jiankang City, not Wuchang City. The troops outside the city are all directly under the emperor Sima Rui's army, which are stationed in the fortress outside the city, especially the right general Zhou Za stationed in Stone City, this person is the queen of the gate, the family is huge, the Zhou family has five marquis, and the Zhou family has heavy troops, in charge of more than half of the soldiers and horses near Gyeonggi, and has won the trust of Sima Rui.

If the Langya Wang clan is the head of the scholar clan, then the Yixing Zhou clan is the head of the Jiangmen. However, there is not much contact between the Langya Wang clan and the Yixing Zhou clan, and there is no grievance between the two clans, but since Wang Dun became a general, the interests of the Langya Wang clan and the Yixing Zhou clan have disputes, and then the contradictions are getting deeper and deeper, and gradually there are resentments.

If Wang Dun really killed Sima Rui, then it is very likely that Zhou Za, who was stationed in Stone City, would fall into the trap for Wang Dun at this time, lead the army to Qin Wang, and take the opportunity to get rid of Wang Dun.

The more Wang Dun thought about it, the more frightened he felt, he smiled, and said to Wang Dao: "Ah Long, I'm just joking with Your Majesty......" As he spoke, Wang Dun stared at Sima Rui and asked, "Is it Your Majesty?" ”

Sima Rui hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I'm joking with the general!" ”

What is going on, Director Wang knows it, but he doesn't ask any more, as long as Wang Dun can realize the situation he is in now, he will not dare to touch Sima Rui.

Wang Daodao: "In that case, why don't you take someone to leave the palace quickly?" ”

Wang Dun raised his hand and waved, and all the people put away their swords one after another, and then exited the main hall one by one, waiting quietly outside the hall.

Seeing this, Director Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said to Wang Dun: "Brother, you should leave here quickly, in case it is known, I am afraid that my brother will not be able to leave if he wants to." ”

Wang Dun didn't say a word, turned around, and left the hall directly.

In the main hall, there were only three people left, Sima Rui, Wang Dun, and Mao Bao, and the three of them looked at Wang Dun's distant back, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, I am late for help, and I ask Your Majesty for forgiveness!" Director Wang said respectfully.

Sima Rui sneered and said, "You and Wang Dun sing and harmonize, the two brothers don't have a tacit understanding!" ”

"Your Majesty, what do you mean by that?" Director Wang frowned and asked.

Sima Rui said: "What do you mean? Do you think I won't be able to see if the two of you brothers are acting together? ”

Director Wang wanted to speak and stopped, and finally smiled helplessly: "Whatever Your Majesty thinks, no matter how much I say, it's useless, so I will leave!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Director Wang turned around and walked towards the outside of the hall, Mao Bao, who had not spoken, followed Director Wang out of the hall closely, and in the main hall, Sima Rui, who had just experienced the catastrophe of life and death, remembered what Wang Dun had done to him just now, and when he was depressed, he couldn't help but let out a long howl when he looked up to the sky.

Director Wang came out of the hall with a depressed face, what he never dreamed of was that Sima Rui would actually look at him like this, he was kind enough to save Sima Rui, but Sima Rui not only did not appreciate it, but thought that he and Wang Dun were acting in a play, and the friendship of many years seemed to collapse in an instant.

"Hey!" Director Wang sighed heavily and shook his head helplessly.

As soon as Wang Dao and Mao Bao left the hall, they were blocked by Wang Dun.

"Ah Long, such a confused majesty, do you still want to insist on serving him?" Wang Dun asked sarcastically.

Wang Daodao: "Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness are the inheritance tenet of our Langya Wang family, no matter what kind of Majesty Your Majesty is, as a courtier, you must be loyal to him......"

Wang Dun interrupted Director Wang's words: "You are foolish!" As the patriarch of your clan, you should think about our entire clan......"

Director Wang retorted: "It is precisely because I have thought about it very clearly that I dare not make random mistakes!" But my brother has done such a rebellious thing today, and has only considered his own selfish desires, but has he ever considered the consequences of doing so? If you do this, it is tantamount to trapping our Langya Wang clan in injustice! ”

"Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, Ah Long, you are too pedantic, you don't know how to be flexible, you can do it yourself, I'm going back to Wuchang!"

As soon as the words fell, Wang Dun turned around and left, and the Ti cavalry around him spontaneously formed a team to guard Wang Dun's side, and the Yulin army was also taken away by Wang Dun, afraid that the right general Zhou Za would ambush him in Stone City.

Wang Dun withdrew from Jiankang City with people, and went towards Wuchang in a mighty way, when passing through Stone City, the right general Zhou Za saw that the general Wang Dun was surrounded by the Yulin Army, although he was a little curious, but he did not make any move, and watched Wang Dun pass under the city proudly.

About half an hour after Wang Dun left, Zhou Za's henchmen came to see Zhou Za and reported to Zhou Za that Wang Dun broke into the palace in Jiankang City to coerce the emperor.

Zhou Za looked at the direction of Wang Dun's departure, expecting that Wang Dun must be running at this moment, so even if he sent troops to pursue, he might not be able to catch up. What's more, until now, no holy decree has been issued in the palace, and even Sima Rui, who was coerced by Wang Dun, did not say anything, he did not dare to move at will without a holy decree.

In the emperor's bedroom, Sima Rui was already bedridden, he had a noble status since he was a child, where did he receive such treatment, looking at the whole world, only Wang Dun, a thief, dared to do this. However, he was coerced by Wang Dun, but he couldn't help Wang Dun, after all, Wang Dun held half of the soldiers and horses of the Great Jin Dynasty in his hands, and the soldiers had been eyeing Wuchang and coveted the imperial court.

Although Sima Rui has the intention to kill Wang Dun, but he has no ability, except for Wang Dun, the power of the Langya Wang clan is all over the government and the opposition, if he rashly orders the arrest of Wang Dun, he is afraid that the Langya Wang clan will attack him in groups, and then the Sima clan's country will come to an end.

"Prince...... Is the prince here? Sima Rui shouted to the eunuch beside him.

The eunuch responded: "Your Majesty, I have already asked people to go to the East Palace to invite His Royal Highness the Prince, and it won't be long before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince comes." ”

Sima Rui waited for a while, and it took about a stick of incense before the crown prince Sima Shao came to Sima Rui's bedroom, ran directly to the edge of the dragon couch, knelt on the ground, grabbed Sima Rui's hand, and shouted loudly: "Father, the sons have already heard about it, as long as the father and the emperor order, the sons are willing to lead the army to crusade against Wang Dun, a traitor!" ”

Sima Rui was a little relieved after hearing this, but he shook his head and said: "Shao'er, don't make a mistake, this is the real reason why I called you, you are just when your blood is strong, it is inevitable that you are a little young and vigorous, I was almost killed by Wang Dun's traitor today, if it wasn't for Wang Dao's timely appearance and stopped Wang Dun's behavior, you would only be able to see my corpse." ”

"Wang Dun, traitor! Erchen is going to break his body into pieces! Sima Shao said hatefully.

Sima Rui said: "Wang Dun will definitely be killed, but not now. Now the only person who can stop Wang Dun is Wang Dao, but I think too simply, and secretly signal Wang Dao to step down as prime minister, who would have thought that Wang Dun, a thief, was brought in, and I was coerced by him, which can be regarded as my own doing. I called you here to ask you to do one thing instead of me, and this thing must be done, otherwise Sima's country will be handed over to others. ”

Sima Shao said: "Although my father commanded, as long as the sons and daughters can do their best, the sons and daughters will do their best!" ”

Sima Rui said: "I have already prepared a holy decree, you take that holy decree to Wuyi Lane, go to Wang Dao, and promulgate the holy decree to him!" ”

Saying that, Sima Rui handed a holy decree to Sima Shao, Sima Shao took it and opened it directly and glanced at it hurriedly, raised his eyebrows, and asked with a shocked face: "Father, Wang Dun treats you like this, and Wang Dao can't escape the involvement, one of them is a general, the other is a prime minister, this internal and external control of the government for many years, the world even has ' The rumor that the king and the horse share the world', and now that Wang Dao has finally been removed from the position of prime minister, why did his father let his son go to announce the decree again, not only restored his position as prime minister, but also named him the regent......"

Sima Rui interrupted Sima Shao's words and said: "Shao'er, although Wang Dao and Wang Dun are brothers, Wang Dao and Wang Dun are different, Wang Dao is sincerely loyal to our Sima clan, while Wang Dun is different. And for example, today, the only person who can check and balance Wang Dun is Wang Dao, as long as Wang Dao becomes the regent, it is equivalent to the Langya Wang clan mastering the imperial court, so Wang Dun, who is far away in Wuchang, even if he has no heart to be subordinate, no matter what, he will not dare to openly turn his face with Wang Dao. If you do what I want, you will be safe! ”

Sima Shao's face was gloomy, and he didn't dare to disobey Sima Rui's intentions, but what he thought in his heart was completely different from Sima Rui. In his opinion, Sima Rui is too weak, and blindly relying on the Langya Wang clan will only make the Langya Wang clan more arrogant.

Sima Shao left the palace with the holy decree and went directly to Wuyi Lane, but his destination was not Wang Dao's mansion, but the mansion of his eldest brother-in-law Yu Liang.
