Chapter 119: Desire to Perform the Great Ceremony

Princess Ankang didn't let the guard's hand touch her, but she didn't continue to stalemate with Sima Zhao any longer.

She shook her hand, finally glanced at Sima Zhao deeply, and then turned around and left directly.

Sima Zhao clenched his fists, and the expression on his face was uncertain and uncertain.

However, after a while, Sima Zhao adjusted the expression on his face, and looked at the ministers who were called by him to discuss the enthronement ceremony, and said to everyone very politely:

"I'm sorry, because some family affairs have delayed everyone's time, after all, my daughter's parents are older, and there will always be some unrealistic ideas in my heart. Now, let's all move on. ”

It doesn't matter what the ministers are thinking.

They couldn't avoid it at first, and if they heard the secrets, they couldn't avoid it then.

They quietly looked at Sima Zhao's deceptive face, and at this moment they truly understood the true meaning of not being able to look at people.

It seems that he is the most bullied person, but in fact, he is also the most thoughtful person.

From this time on, they had to reconsider the strength of this ruler of the Southern Imperial Kingdom. After all, they knew in their hearts that it was definitely time for them to choose a side after that.

Otherwise, when Princess Ankang came in and said the first sentence just now, Sima Zhao could directly let them go out to avoid suspicion first, and he wouldn't let them finish the whole process here.

Now that they have listened to the whole process, it means that Sima Zhao has put the choice in front of them.

Either completely submit to him and be his lackey henchmen under Sima Zhao from now on, or simply stand on the opposite side of Sima Zhao and find a reliable backer so that he can save his life and ensure that he has no worries about the future.

In fact, they choose and choose, think and think, and there are only two people in front of them who can choose.

If you want to ask who in this palace can compete with Sima Zhao or who is not afraid of Sima Zhao at all, and is better than him, it is none other than Princess Anning.

In other words, either choose Princess An Ning or Sima Zhao.

In fact, they were able to discuss matters related to the enthronement ceremony with Sima Zhao in the Xuanzheng Hall at this time, because they expressed some intentions to be close to Sima Zhao, and they were temporarily divided into his sphere of influence by Sima Zhaoxian.

But now, after listening to what Princess Ankang said, they really couldn't hold back the wavering in their hearts.

A person who doesn't seem to have anything to do with Sima Zhao died inexplicably, which is really a thing that people care about very much.

And according to what they saw at the meritorious banquet some time ago, there were actually some contradictions and conflicts between Xie Rong and Princess An Ning.

For Sima Zhao, even if he had something to care about before, at this time, he should take advantage of his friendship and give favors to develop into one of his own forces, rather than just let him die without knowing it.

Of course, there may be Sima Zhao's own handwriting, or even Sima Zhao's own hands.

This reason is also the main reason why several people are frightened and uncertain.

But no matter what decision they make in the end, they will definitely not reveal it at all.

Sima Zhao glanced at the crowd and saw several ministers with their heads down, as if nothing had happened just now, and he couldn't help but feel a little satisfied.

He felt that his vision was really good, and he picked out a few people who seemed to be quite knowledgeable about current affairs, and knew who to choose now.

What he didn't expect was that half of these ministers at this time were going to join Princess An Ning just now.

Therefore, until now, Sima Zhao still looks secretly happy. He pretended to be reserved, and asked several people for their opinions on the enthronement ceremony,

"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you say, how and when will I hold my enthronement hall?"

Ministers, you look at me, I look at you, they don't seem to know how to open this mouth. In the end, it was decided to follow Sima Zhao's three ministers in the future.

"According to the old rules, Your Majesty, it is really a bit unorthodox for you to hold the enthronement ceremony at this time. After all, in strict accordance with the rules and regulations of etiquette, the enthronement ceremony is still in the period of filial piety. ”

Hearing this, Sima Zhao's expression darkened a little, but then he changed his expression again, sighed deeply and said to the minister:

"I also know this problem, and I am always thinking about how to solve this problem in my mind, and I even think that once the filial piety period is over, I can naturally transition to the throne.

But the current situation does not allow me to make such a bet. If I don't ascend the throne and stabilize the situation, there will be no peace in this world. ”

When the minister heard this, he felt that what Sima Zhao said did make some sense.

Although Sima Zhao has been on the throne for a long time, he has not held an enthronement ceremony, and there are still some unjustified names in the hearts of many people. For some people with ulterior motives, this is really tempting them, making them feel that they have an opportunity to subvert this imperial power.

So he lowered his head and quietly thought of a way to go.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with Sima Zhao's words, but those who decided to separate from Sima Zhao figured out something different from it.

Since Sima Zhao can talk to them now, why can't he say these things to them in front of his ministers?

As long as there is a reason, then this enthronement ceremony can be carried out. What's more, no matter what, he is the emperor, whether it is nominal or really has actual power, as long as he really wants to do it, then it can be done no matter what.

But now, I only called a few of them and told them this, which really made people think about it.

If you really thought that Sima Zhao was annoyed by the enthronement ceremony at the beginning, it would have been fine, but now it seems that Sima Zhao already had an idea in his heart. Calling them over may be sending them to take the lead.

In this way, they have to thank the princess Ankang who broke in.

If it weren't for her, they really wouldn't have been able to know that under Sima Zhao's honest and kind face, such scheming was hidden.

But also, among the royal family, who is really simple?

Sima Zhao was originally very leisurely and full of smiles waiting for everyone's thoughts and opinions, but no one looked up for a long time.

He couldn't help frowning, and swept over the ministers below, and finally found that slight difference.

The person who had just put forward his opinion had an impression on him, so he naturally paid more attention to it, and found that his brows were tightly locked, and there was a little confusion in his eyes, and he was indeed thinking about the problem.

But that wasn't the case with the few people around him. Although it looks solemn, his eyes are obviously looking away.

"What the hell are you thinking?" Sima Zhao asked in a deep voice.
