Sima Yi said that he was interested in Xiao Zhan, the princess of Yongdan, but Xiao Ling did not say whether he would help, but just laughed for a while.

In the end, he laughed so much that Sima Yi was a little embarrassed. Sima said, "What's so funny? ”

"Hey, Brother Sima, forgive me, it's ...... Somewhat unexpected. I used to give you beautiful women, and you didn't even look at them when you opened your eyes, I thought you liked men, which made me worry for a long time. Now you are not interested in others, but you are interested in my little queen niece, hey, this matter is easy to do, but it is not easy to do. Xiao Ling said, sighing for no reason.

"What do you mean by that?" Sima asked with a straight face.

Xiao Ling said: "My imperial niece is the eldest princess of the Southern Dynasty, and she can marry someone else, but Brother Sima, you are a member of the Northern Dynasty." Now that the Northern Dynasty is so chaotic, although it has nothing to do with you, if I was asked to mention this matter to the imperial sister-in-law, I am afraid that I would not open my mouth, so I refused because of Brother Sima's identity. ”

Sima nodded helplessly: "What you said makes sense." ”

"And." Xiao Ling added, "Even if my imperial sister-in-law agrees to woo a talent like Brother Sima, after all, the niece of the little emperor is now very close to the one surnamed Zhu, and it was the one surnamed Zhu who left Brother Sima in Jinling, and the relationship between you ...... Not easy to deal with. I'm afraid, even if the little emperor's niece marries you, the heart is not on you. ”

Sima Yi was a little suspicious of himself when Xiao Ling said, but when he thought of the graceful Princess Yongdan, he felt that such a noble woman who seemed to be unrefined and didn't eat the fireworks of the world, how could she be committed to Zhu Tongjing, who had an ordinary face. Most likely because Zhu Tongjing wanted to show favor to her. In addition, she has always been closer to Zhu Tongjing, so she will be misunderstood by outsiders.

In the eyes of the lover, in the eyes of Sima Yi, Xiao Zhan not only has beauty and noble figure, but also has a noble ambition that transcends the world.

"It's man-made, as long as King Hui helps a little, whether it will be successful or not depends on the will of God." Sima excused himself.

Xiao Ling said with a smile: "This is the plan in the people, and the success in the sky." Haha, Brother Sima. Let's have a drink. Don't say something unpleasant, tomorrow I will go to tell the imperial sister-in-law about you and the little emperor's niece, maybe the imperial sister-in-law will look at my face and agree to this family affair. ”

Sima sighed helplessly. Although Empress Dowager He is not an extremely shrewd person. But in this Southern Dynasty regime. Empress Dowager He has an outstanding status, will she look down on him, the proton of the Northern Dynasty? A young offspring who doesn't even have fame? And he also knew that Xiao Zhan left a deep impression on him. But in Xiao Zhan's eyes, he is a passerby, and just a word he says is just a polite word.

At the banquet afterward, Sima Yi was a little absent-minded because of Xiao Zhan's affairs. It's like knowing that the lover of your dreams is going to get married, and the groom is not your own kind of loneliness and helplessness.

Xiao Ling's interest was quite high, even on the second watch, he was interested in looking at the scenery on the river, and even singing and drinking, not afraid of the cold wind of the cold winter night at all.

But at this moment, an entourage hurriedly ran over, and when he arrived at the Tongque Bridge, he was stopped by someone outside. Then a letter was handed over to Xiao Ling, who had drunk a little too much at this time, and her head had begun to glow.

"Brother Sima, help me see, what is written on it?" Xiao Ling carefully looked at the secret letter for a long time before finally handing it to Sima Yi.

"Lord Wang, this ...... Cannot. The entourage who came to deliver the letter looked at Sima Yi a little nervously, what he meant, this letter is related to the secrets of the Southern Dynasty, how can it be shown to "outsiders" casually?

"What not?" Xiao Ling glared at the entourage and said coldly, "Brother Sima is my friend, my friend...... Do you understand? You don't understand it. Brother Sima, what did you say above? ”

"It's a matter of the Northern Dynasty." Sima Yu glanced at it, and he already understood, and said casually.

"Northern Dynasty? Oh, that's your own business, Brother Sima, eh? What happened to the Northern Dynasty? Did something happen to that friend of yours? Seeing that Brother Sima's face was a little solemn, could it be ...... Your friend...... Killed? Don't be sad, just follow me in the future, we will be blessed and enjoy the same hardships, I am better than you...... Friend, it's not far off, is it? In addition to quoting scriptures...... Probably not as good as him......"

Sima sighed, Xiao Ling was really drunk, and his drunk speech was upside down. However, he could also see that Xiao Ling was a little concerned about the fact that he often mentioned "that friend", although Xiao Ling didn't say it on weekdays, he still minded after all. With the strength of the wine, he said something.

"King Fuhui went back to his house, and by the way, he asked someone to pack up his things." Sima Yu instructed the people of King Hui's mansion.

"Yes, Master Sima."

The subordinates of King Hui's Mansion can be said to be obedient to Sima Yi. The main reason is that King Hui believes that Sima borrowed too much, and not only regards him as a friend, but also treats him as a strategist and military advisor, and only consults with Sima Yi on everything. King Hui didn't believe what others said, but once Sima Yi said it, no matter how strange it was, Xiao Ling was convinced.

Sima Yi is a celebrity in front of King Hui, so no one dares to offend him. In fact, Sima Yu did not do anything dangerous to King Hui, helped King Hui gain a foothold in the court, and also won the respect of the people in King Hui's mansion.

Xiao Ling had already fallen asleep, and with the help of his entourage, the two got into the carriage, and after a while, the carriage arrived in front of King Hui's mansion. At this time, there were some people in front of King Hui's mansion, and Sima Yi got down from the carriage and took a closer look, only to know that it was someone from the palace.

"Yo! What's wrong with His Royal Highness King Hui? The people in the palace spoke sharply, and Sima knew that he was a eunuch when he heard it.

These eunuchs seem to respect Xiao Ling on weekdays, but in fact, it is only because the Queen Mother relies on King Hui, and after people, these people will also chew their tongues, and they may not look at King Hui in their eyes.

"I've drunk too much wine, how many fathers-in-law, what's wrong?" Sima Yi also served as King Hui's "spokesman", and at this time Xiao Ling couldn't take care of himself, so he stepped forward to receive people from the palace.

"The Queen Mother invited King Hui into the palace, this is ...... How good is that? Sima Gongzi, do you want His Royal Highness King Hui to go in and sober up first? The affairs of the Queen Mother...... But don't be lazy. The eunuch who came to deliver the message was a little anxious, seeing that his errand could not be completed, and he would definitely be punished when he returned.

Sima Yi thought about it, needless to say, this time the Queen Mother looked for King Hui, which was also related to the affairs of the Northern Dynasty. Sima learned from the secret documents that now the overall situation of Luoyang in the Northern Dynasty has been decided, and the Eastern Wangjun army will enter Luoyang at any time. Although he had long expected that Jiang Du would have the ability to complete the important task of King Qin's rebellion, he didn't expect that things would come so quickly.

And with the rise of the Eastern Palace, the Southern Dynasty was bound to be nervous and had to hurry up to discuss countermeasures. The plan to send troops to the Northern Dynasties, which had not been implemented before, may be changed because of this incident.

"A few fathers-in-law, wait for a while, and King Hui will enter the palace with a few of them." Sima knew that King Hui could not be absent from this matter, otherwise he would miss the deliberations of a major event.

After explaining to the people in the palace, Sima borrowed the past and asked people to find wine and tea for Xiao Ling to drink.

Xiao Ling's spirit was still very sluggish, except for smirking, he would only shout twice suddenly, as if he would soon be revenged.

"King Hui, the Queen Mother invites you to enter the palace, quickly pack up and enter the palace." Sima excused himself.

"The Queen Mother? Which Queen Mother? I remember that the Queen Mother was kind, kind and kind, and often gave me candy to eat. Haha......"

Sima sighed, he knew that Xiao Ling was talking nonsense again. The Queen Mother in Xiao Ling's mouth is not the current Empress Dowager He, but the late Empress Xu of the previous dynasty, and Empress Xu is also Xiao Ling's grandmother.

"King Fuhui gets on the sedan chair and goes to the palace." Sima Yi knew that he couldn't listen to what he said to Xiao Ling now, so he could only let him blow the cold wind on the way and see if he could relieve his hangover.

Sima looked at the sky, and the moonlight was still bright. And Xiao Ling at this time should have fallen asleep. Xiao Ling always boasts that she drinks very well, but after all, she is just a half-drunkard, and she will get drunk if she drinks a few more glasses, but today's Xiao Ling seems to be even more drunk, and I don't know if it's because she misses Daxiliu or Qiansu oak too much.

Xiao Ling entered the sedan chair, and the sedan chair went in the direction of the Jinling Palace. Sima Yi was not at ease, so he accompanied him all the way.

At the gate of the palace, the party was stopped by the palace guards, the eunuch went up to explain the intention, and after the guards determined that the sedan chair was King Hui, he was released, but as a foreign minister, Sima Yu, could only stay outside the palace and wait.

"On the way, give King Hui a few more cups of tea and let him sober up." Sima excused himself.

"Understood, Sima Gongzi."

Because Xiao Ling had the privilege of riding a sedan chair in the palace, the entourage of King Hui's Mansion would personally escort him to the inner garden of the palace. Sima Yi also confessed two sentences, if Xiao Ling was so unbearable when he summoned the Empress Dowager He, I am afraid that he would cause trouble.

When they entered the palace, Sima Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

For him, the overall situation in the Northern Dynasties has been decided, which is a good thing, after all, it is Jiangdu who has gained power, that is to say, Han Jian has secured the position of the king of the east, and King Qin has merit, and in the future, he will be able to sweep away the western capital and Beichuan.

But in his heart, after all, he was a little lost, because he was in the Southern Dynasty and could not return, and he didn't know what happened to his former old friend.

"This is Sima Gongzi?" Suddenly, a female voice came from Sima Yi's side, Sima Yi was stunned at first, and wanted to draw his sword, but remembered that he didn't have a sword. Caught off guard, he turned around to see a woman standing behind him.

"Who is this young lady?" The light of the lantern at the entrance of the palace was not strong, and Sima Yi carefully identified it, as if he was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

"The little woman Tang Xi has seen Sima Gongzi." The woman said with a smile.

Tang Xi? Sima Yu thought about it, but he didn't seem to recognize it, and this woman didn't even have any guards at the palace gate to ask, obviously she often went in and out of the palace. A woman surnamed Tang, Sima borrowed it for a while, and it seems that there are no big families in Jinling with this surname. Could it be a female official in the palace? (To be continued......)
