After the Qushui Liuyu Poetry Meeting, although Empress Jia's suspicion of Yi Xue has not diminished at all, it is just a means for her to hold King Langya hostage at any time, she will not take an orphan girl seriously, and at this time, it is the prince who is more "concerned" in her heart.

In the ninth year of Yuankang (299 AD), under the strong recommendation of Zhang Hua and others, the imperial court worshiped Meng Guan as the general of the conquest, Meng Guan was invincible in the northern county, and finally won a complete victory in the battle of Zhongting, captured Qi Wannian alive, and was escorted back to Luoyang, and the rebellion of the Di people that lasted nearly three years was finally quelled.

The good news was transmitted back to the Western Jin Dynasty, Jia Nanfeng and Emperor Hui were overjoyed, the court was cheerful, the external strife had subsided, and Empress Jia felt that the external troubles were worry-free, and she had a plan in her heart.

When Meng Guan returned to the court, Emperor Hui and Empress Jia led hundreds of civil and military officials to greet them in the main hall of the Taiji Palace, and even some princes in Beijing who usually did not need to go to the court also stood on the court, so courtesy since Emperor Hui ascended the throne, it is also rare to see.

Above the court, in the Taiji Hall, the ministers shouted long live, and the court meeting began.

Empress Jia glanced around at the ministers

"Why hasn't the prince been there yet?" Jia Hou asked.

"Prince?" Only then did Emperor Hui notice that his son did not come.

Jia Mi glanced at Empress Jia, and Empress Jia understood: "At such a momentous moment today, how can the prince not participate in the court meeting?" It's so unbelievable. ”

"The queen is angry, the prince really doesn't like words, and I will go back and reprimand him."

Sima Zhen was angry and comforted when he saw Jia, and then asked, "Where is that General Meng Guan now?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, General Meng is now holding Qi Wannian outside the palace to make a decree." Jia Mi said.

"That pass on General Mengguan, that ....... Enter the temple with a sword! ”

"Xuan Zheng General Meng Guan enters the hall with a sword!"

With the order of the inner attendant, I saw Meng Guan wearing armor and striding majestically with a sword.

All the ministers said in unison: "Welcome to the triumphant return of the general." ”

Meng Guan walked to the front of the hall and saluted: "Minister Meng Guan respectfully invites Your Majesty Sheng'an, Niangniang Jin'an!" ”

At this time, Dong Meng unfolded the holy decree and said: "Recruit the general Meng Guan to listen to the decree!" ”

"Ministers and Mengguan listen to the order!"

"Conquer the general Meng Guan, loyal and resolute, and command the sergeant, as a arrow, more than ten battles, invincible, captured Qi for 10,000 years, and deterred Diqiang. Now worship the general of the right guard, open the general's mansion, the bounty is 1,000 taels, and the pearl is 10 hundred. ”

"Minister, thank you, long live my emperor, long live long live, long live my mother, long live thousands of years."

At this time, all the ministers congratulated: "I wish me peace and happiness in the four seas, and the country will be forever prosperous!" ”

The ministers turned to Meng Guan and congratulated: "Congratulations to the general of the right guard." ”

"General of the Right Guard, where is the Qi thief now?" Jia Hou asked.

"Hui Niangniang, now detained outside the palace!"

"Escorted out of the palace, the copper camel street was beheaded for public display, and the head was hung outside the palace gate for three days!"

"Obey." Meng Guan withdrew from the court.

At this time, Emperor Hui was preparing to retreat from the court, only to hear someone outside the hall talking.

"Who's making a fuss outside?" Jia Hou asked.

"Hui Niangniang, she is a waiter in the East Palace."

"Let him in!" Jia Houdao.

At this time, I saw a little eunuch running to the court in a panic, lying on the ground trembling and saying: "Qi, Qi, Your Majesty, Niangniang, the prince, the prince, he is crazy!" ”

"Bold, dare to say that the prince is coming, pull out the cane and kill him!" Dong Meng deliberately shouted loudly.

"Niangniang spare your life, Niangniang spare your life,

At this time, Jia Mi said loudly: "Wait." ”

Jia Mi stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, the prince of the prince's country, it is a major matter of the country to be sick, and I will talk about it if I ask clearly." ”

The little eunuch crawled over like grasping a life-saving straw: "Duke Xie Lu, Duke Xie Lu!" ”

"How about you explain the white prince?"

"The prince got up early in the morning, and he was preparing for the court meeting, but he suddenly laughed non-stop, then tore his clothes, and then slashed everywhere with a sword, and there was already a palace lady who was stabbed to death by the prince."

Emperor Hui was at a loss when he heard this, and the courtiers looked at me, I looked at you, and they didn't know what to do.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang, you still need to see for yourself."

At this time, Empress Jia also said in a cozy manner: "Although the prince was not born in this palace, he grew up under the knees of this palace, Your Majesty is the only son, and he is also the meat of the heart of this palace, you can't miss anything, Your Majesty, let's go and see." ”

"According to what the queen said, a few princes, three princes, and clan relatives stayed, and the others dispersed." Emperor Hui said, although Sima Zhen is a little stupid, he is not mentally retarded, and he still knows some things.

So Emperor Hui, Jia Nanfeng and some clan relatives came to Sima Shu's East Palace.

I saw the crown prince Sima Shu standing on several cases, with his hair scattered, naked and half-bodyed, holding a long sword in the shape of a horse, chanting words in his mouth, and there were a few blood stains on the ground.

A group of little eunuchs knelt on the ground and begged: "The prince is careful, the prince come down quickly, don't hurt yourself." ”

When Emperor Hui saw his son like this, he had no idea for a while, and shouted: "What's wrong with the prince, why is the prince so crazy?" ”

Empress Jia glanced at Jia Mi, Jia Mi gave Empress Jia a tacit look, Empress Jia understood in her heart, and reprimanded loudly: "The dignified prince, he looks like this, what kind of system he becomes, quickly help the prince down." ”

Sima Shu had already seen Empress Jia at this time, only to see him suddenly point his sword at Empress Jia, and shouted loudly: "Bold and demonic, dare to make trouble here, this prince is the general of the Western Emperor under the seat of the Buddha of the Western Heavens, and he has come to subdue you demon!" After speaking, he jumped off a few cases and went straight to Queen Jia.

Everyone immediately exclaimed to protect Niangniang, so some people protected Empress Jia, some people stepped forward to hug the prince, and some people watched the excitement, the scene was really chaotic.

And the crown prince Sima Shu's mouth kept shouting: "The demon wants to harm me, I want to kill this demon......"

Sima Jingwen looked at everything in front of him, and thought to himself that the prince had the habit of taking Hanshi San, and he was afraid that someone had deliberately increased the amount this morning.

So he whispered to Zhang Hua: "Lord Sikong, this prince is probably overdosed with cold stone powder and confused." ”

"Someone, bring cold water." Zhang Hua shouted at the waiter next to him when he heard this.

The waiter brought cold water, but pretended to be afraid and didn't dare to splash it, Zhang Hua saw that the waiter was like this, so he hurriedly stepped forward, snatched the basin from the waiter's hand, and splashed the water on Sima Shu.

Sima Shu suddenly quieted down, his face was covered with water, and his mouth muttered, "Demon." ”

And Empress Jia pretended to cry: "This palace works hard day and night, half of my life is on the court, Your Majesty only has the prince and a prince, isn't all the efforts of the palace to give the prince a peaceful and prosperous world?" Now that Beijun is too peaceful, the prince can't use me, although this palace is not the prince's biological mother, but it is also His Majesty's main palace mother, the prince's mother-in-law, the prince is going to kill this palace. ”

"Take care of your phoenix body, don't be angry." Jia Mi persuaded, and the ministers of the clan also persuaded him.

"Alas, the queen doesn't want to hurt her body for this rebel, this rebel is afraid that he is unconscious after taking the cold stone, and the queen still doesn't want to worry about him?" Emperor Hui said cautiously.

"Don't bother with him? Your son is going to kill this palace, and this palace doesn't have anything to do with him? If it's too peaceful today, he can kill this palace today, and he can harm you tomorrow, and then the world will be his. Jia Nanfeng pointed at Emperor Hui and scolded.

"Niangniang's words are serious, the prince is generous, when he recovers his senses, let him confess his sins to you." Emperor Hui spoke for his son.

"What else can't be done by such a rebellious and rebellious person?" Jia Hou did not give up.

At this time, Zhang Hua scolded a group of eunuchs: "You group of rotten idle slaves, you actually brought the prince like this on weekdays, and you didn't help the prince back." ”

At this time, the prince was agitated by the cold water, and he was no longer manic, but he kept muttering: "The demon wants to harm me, I want to kill the demon ........", and the attendants drove the prince to the inner room of the East Palace.
