Chapter 38: Calculating the King's Family (1)
The imperial court has been arguing for three months on the issue of the new policy, and it is about to enter mid-April, but the imperial court has not yet come up with a conclusion. Now not only the ministers of the DPRK and China are discussing this matter, but even the scholars of the whole world and the princes of various places are discussing this matter.
The empress had already gained the upper hand before, but some families suddenly contacted Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea, who was outside, and they united to oppose it, causing Empress Jia to have to postpone the court meeting. However, Empress Jia gave full play to her high fighting spirit of repeated defeats this time, and in order to make the crown prince Sima Shu become the target of the public, she was secretly contacting Sima Lun, the king of Zhao stationed in Guanzhong.
The situation between the DPRK and China has changed dramatically, and some people with lofty ideals have seen that the defeat of the Jin Dynasty has been revealed, and they have tried to find another way out. At the beginning, when Empress Jia was in power, the family pinned its hopes for the revival of the Jin Dynasty on the crown prince Sima Shu, but now the prince's concept of governing the country has a serious conflict with the family, causing some families to abandon the prince and choose another meritocracy.
Anyway, there are so many princes of the Sima family, and when the time comes, after the crown prince is deposed, he can set up other princes and kings. Among them, the top family of the Jin Dynasty, the Langya Wang family, put part of the bet on the young Langya King Sima Rui, a 17-year-old boy who had just inherited the throne for less than two years, quickly entered the field of vision of Wang Yan's nephew Wang Dun and Wang Dao.
In addition, the Langya Evil Country, where the Langya Wang's homeland is located, is Sima Rui's feudal country, which makes the relationship between the three quickly become closer. According to the plan of the Wang family, once the crown prince returns to the dynasty in the future, sooner or later he will be killed by Empress Jia and the family, and they will never allow the emergence of an imperial ruler like Sima Shu who is hostile to the family.
And once the prince has an accident, those ambitious princes and kings will definitely fight for the supreme throne of the world, coupled with the interracial alliance in the north, I am afraid that the whole world will be in chaos at that time. And the Langya royal family can take the opportunity to unite with the Jiangdong Shi clan to support Sima Rui, the king of Langya, who is currently very low-key, to realize the intention of separating Jiangdong and continue to live the life of the family in power.
As for the safety and well-being of the people in the world, it is completely out of the consideration of a big family like the Wang family. In addition, Sima Rui is not a person who keeps to himself, and the three of them can be described as a perfect match and embarrassed.
When the ministers of the court, the big families, the princes and kings of various places all had evil intentions, and Sima Shu was busy with construction, the Xincheng royal family finally couldn't bear it anymore under the provocation of the family behind them, and they first used the army to wash a village that did not listen to the advice, and then cut off the connection between the county seat and the Huangzhuang.
Everything the Wang family did completely angered the crown prince Sima Shu. When he received that a total of hundreds of people had died, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed, since sooner or later he had to eradicate these local wealthy clans that were in the way, then take the royal family sacrifice flag first! Let's think it will clear some resistance to the implementation of the new policy in the future.
The sun has risen high, and the endless wheat fields are still covered with residual snow, and in some places green wheat seedlings are exposed. Sima Shu led a group of small servants to fence off a wasteland with nets, although the winter passed, but the spring cold should not be underestimated, so he was still wearing thick clothes, and his face was red by the wind.
A few days ago, Sima Shu asked people to investigate the activities of the second son of the Wang family, and knew that this was the place where he often came to hunt.
I used to catch a few rabbits in the Huangzhuang, and everyone ate a mouthful of oil, and this thing was also addictive to eat, and the hares were almost impossible to catch in the Huangzhuang. This time, while he was out, Sima Shu was going to catch a few and go back to satisfy his hunger.
"Sima Zhi, is it okay to go here?" Sima Ren asked.
"No problem, I've seen it all, here are the footprints left by the hare!" Sima Zhi sighed in his hand and said confidently.
"Alright, let's get started, drive the rabbits south from the north and let them crash into the net!" Pretend to be like some, after seeing that everyone is ready, Sima Shu said to everyone.
"Oh, oh......" More than a dozen people lined up in a line, stabbing and beating with sticks in the grass and in the cracks of the stones, while shouting loudly, five or six hares could not bear to be disturbed and rushed out of their hiding places, and everyone was even more energetic, blocking and driving the hares in the direction of the nets.
Seeing that the rabbit was about to be bombarded into the encirclement, suddenly after a series ......of bells rang in the air, a black shadow swooped down from the air like an arrow, grabbed a hare, and the sudden change startled everyone.
"Your Highness, it's an eagle!" Sima Ren said.
"It's always coming, leave it alone, blast this way, don't let the other rabbits run!"
Seeing the eagle descending from the sky, the hare was even more frightened and scurryed around, Sima Shu hurriedly commanded everyone to prepare to seal the gap. But before they could run a few steps, two feathered arrows flew and nailed the two rabbits to the ground, and everyone panicked, and all the remaining rabbits slipped away.
"Young master, shoot it......" With the sound of horses' ass, five or six horses rushed past them, and two people jumped down, one picked up the rabbit that was shot to death, and the other grabbed the harrier eagle that was still fighting with the rabbit, and snatched the rabbit from its mouth, as if they didn't see Sima Shu and them at all.
Sima Shu stood on his feet and sighed in his heart: Damn, it's finally here! It's not in vain that Lao Tzu has been freezing here for most of the day!
He looked up and down at a few "uninvited guests": the leader was white and clean, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, wearing a white fox fur hat, wearing a purple brocade robe, a gold ribbon tied around his waist, a red coat, soap-colored official boots under his feet, inlaid with two pieces of egg-sized white jade, riding a red horse, carrying a bow on his left and an arrow on his right, looking like a noble son, but frowning and pouting ruined a good appearance. The four people behind him were all dressed as bankers, also carrying bows and arrows, riding horses, and two pheasants hanging from their saddles!
"Second son, let's catch three at once, and we have snacks at noon!" A guy laughed with a rabbit in his hand.
"It's not interesting, there's only rabbits here, no big prey!" The second son of the Wang family fed the eagle a piece of meat that fell on his arm and said unhappily.
"Second son, twenty miles to the east, there is a forest there, there is big prey, let's not go there!" A banker asked with a smile.
"Forget it, we're tired today, let's go back to Zhuangzi first!" The second son of the Wang family flicked his arm, and the eagle immediately flapped its wings and flew up, and said lazily.
"Okay!" The leading dealer agreed, turned the horse's head and left.
"Stop, what are you doing, robbing our prey, and leaving without saying a word!" Seeing that several people on the other side had treated them as non-existent from beginning to end, Sima Shu deliberately pretended to be very angry and said unhappily.
"Huh? Your prey? ”
Seeing a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy stopping in front of their horse, the leading banker seemed to see what a funny thing it was, and said disdainfully.
"Of course, we people have been busy driving out the prey for a long time, and you have put two arrows here, which is yours, doesn't seem appropriate?" Sima Shu said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Fuck off, you guys blasted out? Whoever sees it, and then says that these are ownerless things, and whoever catches it is his! For the sake of convenience, Sima Shu dressed no different from the little guys, and the leading Zhuang Ke only regarded him as a subordinate of whose family, and shouted angrily.
"Dare to be unreasonable to our master, you are too bold!" Seeing him scolding His Royal Highness the Prince, Sima Ren stepped forward and pointed at the Zhuang Ke with a stick that bombarded the rabbit and shouted.
"Whose family are they, it won't be ......"
The prince frowned and asked the Zhuang Ke behind him, Xincheng County is located in the Central Plains, the land here is fertile, Yishui passes through the border, the transportation is convenient, and the prince lives in the Huangzhuang near here, in case it is the prince's subordinates who are in trouble, he is also afraid of offending the characters who cannot be provoked.
"Second son, you can see that this poor boy has no backers, the boss is now one of the main things in the county, and our Wang family is also a figure with a head and a face here, isn't it ......!"
The leading Zhuang Ke is a local head snake, and he has a good understanding of the situation here, but Sima Shu deliberately kept a low profile, so that he only saw the surface, but did not see the 'connotation'!
"There is a bastard who has no father to teach, dare to block the way of this son, call me!"
The second son of the Wang family didn't understand the situation and had some scruples, but after listening to the provocation of his subordinates, he immediately became emboldened. With a shout, the horse rushed forward, and the whip in his hand was drawn, Sima Ren dodged sideways, the whip was whipped on his back, and the clothes on his body were immediately torn, and the person was crooked twice, almost falling.
"Hit!"
Seeing that his brother had suffered a loss, Sima Yi picked up the stone like the second son of the Wang family on a horse and smashed it, and the other people also hugged him, and at the same time protected Sima Shu behind him and rushed forward with a wooden stick.
"It's the other way around, it's the other way around, what are you waiting for, fight!" The second son of the Wang family shouted angrily when he saw that the other party dared to fight back
In the blink of an eye, the two groups of people fought together, although there were many people on Sima Shu's side, they were all fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenagers, with only a wooden stick in their hands, although there were few people over there, they were strong men with big heights, holding weapons in their hands, and they were not of the same level at all.
At first, the teenagers were newborn calves who were not afraid of tigers, and they were short, jumping high with wooden sticks and beating them indiscriminately, and if they couldn't hit them, they picked up stones and smashed them. However, the people over there quickly reacted, riding a horse and whipping with a bow back and scabbard, and after two rounds, Sima Shu's side suffered a big loss, allowing the other party to fall down several times.
"Don't fight, run!"
Sima Shu saw that his goal had been achieved, and he didn't want anyone on his side to be hurt. Seeing that the fallen Sima Yi almost let the horse's hooves step on it, and the others were also in danger, a Zhuang Ke who had been hit twice in the face was already in a hurry, and pulled out the knife, and if he continued like this, he would die if he didn't get it right, he hurriedly shouted.
When the little guys heard Sima Shu's words, they immediately turned around, "Run this way, don't crowd together!" Sima Shu pulled Sima Xin, who was still attacking with dirt and dirt, shouting and running.
"Catch that kid, he's the lead!"
was disgraced by a group of children, the second son of the Wang family felt that he was really faced, wiped the dirt on his face, and angrily shouted at a few villagers to let go of others, wanting to catch Sima Shu.
Sima Shu looked back while running, several horses were chasing after him, fortunately, the horse had just started, the speed had not yet been raised, and he was still about 20 meters away, and he had a plan in his heart, "Follow me!" Sima Shu was already panting for a while, but he still pulled Sima Xin, who was also sweaty.
