Chapter 085: Unexpected
Seeing that he had guessed Sima Hongyan's mind wrong, Prince Yan Hao was even more curious, but looking at Sima Hongyan's appearance, it didn't seem like he wanted to explain to himself.
Prince Yan Hao simply asked directly: "Aren't you fighting for the position of the prince to help my ninth nephew?" ”
The nine nephews in his mouth refer to Yan Hong!
This sentence really startled Sima Hongyan, and Ban Lingruo and Shi Jinyan couldn't hide their surprise.
Seeing that the faces of the three people on the other side changed, Prince Yan Hao thought that he was right, and looked at them with a slight sneer.
Suddenly, Sima Hongyan hid his face and laughed, and the more he laughed, the happier he became, and he kept laughing until his body trembled with laughter. made Prince Yan Hao laugh inexplicably, I don't know why.
In the end, Prince Yan Hao couldn't help but ask, "What are you laughing at?" ”
Sima Hongyan stopped laughing and said, "I laugh at the imagination of the prince, who can make such a big joke!" ”
Prince Yan Hao said disapprenously: "Could it be that Xiao Wang is wrong?" ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Lord Wang, Lord Wang! You have such an idea just because the Nine Palaces have frequent contacts with us, and you have excellent ability and military power, right? ”
Prince Yan Hao didn't speak, this idea was indeed his guess, and he was not completely sure.
Sima Hongyan said again: "Lord Wang, do you think that with just a female army, you can help the prince win the position of the crown prince?" ”
Prince Yan Hao said: "Miss Sima, if you talk about fighting, women are naturally not men's opponents. But don't think that Xiao Wang doesn't know, your female army is mainly established for military purposes of espionage, assassination, intelligence, and infiltration. These methods are not to be thought about by many people. ”
Sima Hongyan said: "What the prince said also has some truth, but since the prince can think of it, can't the emperor think of it?" Besides, if he really got that position by a group of women, who else in the world would believe him? Don't ignore the dignity of the royal family! ”
That's an important question! Prince Yan Hao felt that his statement was a bit far-fetched.
Sima Hongyan said: "I admit that sometimes in order to achieve the goal, I will do whatever it takes. But it also depends on what happens. The purpose of the establishment of the women's army is indeed as the prince said, but this method is to deal with the enemies of our country, and it will never be for the sake of fighting. The prince also underestimated my Sima Hongyan! ”
After talking for a long time, Prince Yan Hao didn't see through Sima Hongyan's true thoughts. He pondered for a while, and then said: "The girl has the country in her heart, and Xiao Wang really underestimates the girl." In this case, Xiao Wang has a request, I wonder if Miss Sima can agree? ”
Sima Hongyan said: "It depends on what the prince said, and what I can do can naturally be considered." If I can't do it, I have to disappoint the prince! ”
Yan Hao said: "To put it simply, Xiao Wang will help you today, and you will help Xiao Wang tomorrow!" ”
Sima Hongyan said: "The prince's status is noble, what can I help?" ”
Prince Yan Hao said: "Now Xiao Wang doesn't know what he needs the girl's help with, but Xiao Wang's request is very simple, if there is a place that needs the girl's help in the future, the girl should not refuse!" ”
Sima Hongyan smiled: "What the prince said is too vague, I can't agree." To say something bold, if you ask me to do something disobedient in the future, will I also agree? ”
Prince Yan Hao smiled: "Girl, you are too worried. Xiao Wang means that I hope that if Xiao Wang is in trouble in the future, the girl can help Xiao Wang, that's all! ”
Before Sima Hongyan could answer, Prince Yan Hao said again: "To tell the truth, with the girl herself, even with the help of the two girls, Ban and Shi, I'm afraid it will be impossible for this female army to be established in a short period of time." Because after all, your idea is not easy to implement to break the thinking of women for hundreds of years. What's more, the ministers of the DPRK and China are all opposed, and they will definitely set up layers of obstacles for you, and maybe the women's army will not be built at all. But if with Xiao Wang's help, although I dare not say that it will definitely be successful, the probability of success is greatly increased. And what Xiao Wang wants is just to give himself a way back in the future, so why not be such a win-win girl? ”
Sima Hongyan thought for a while and said, "Lord Wang! It's not that I'm ignorant of current affairs. But I really don't dare to agree to this request. After all, it's man-made, if I work hard, but I still can't build the women's army, it means that I don't have that ability, and I don't admit it. But once the goal is achieved with the help of the prince, it is not my Sima Hongyan's ability, I can't serve the public, and I can't pass my own level. ”
Prince Yan Hao said: "Girl, why are you so nitpicky? If you can get it done, no one cares what means you use! ”
Sima Hongyan said: "I care!" ”
Seeing her so resolute, Prince Yan Hao felt very angry. He flicked his sleeves, stood up, and said, "Then since the girl is so ignorant of world affairs, let's treat Xiao Wang as if he hasn't been here today!" After speaking, he walked away, no longer looking at Sima Hongyan.
Sima Hongyan hurriedly got up, and knelt down with Ban Lingruo and Shi Jinyan to send them off.
In the blink of an eye, surrounded by soldiers, Prince Yan Hao hurried away.
When everyone was gone, Sima Hongyan and the others stood up. Ban Lingruo said: "This time I offended this prince!" He doesn't know how to embarrass us in the future. ”
Shi Jinyan said: "Actually, I wanted to persuade you for a moment just now. What the prince said is not completely unreasonable, and with his help, we can indeed save a lot of trouble. And if he asks us to do something we shouldn't do in the future, we won't agree to him then. ”
Ban Lingruo said: "I still don't think it's appropriate. This prince is afraid that he will be confined in the capital for the rest of his life, and what he asks us to do will not be a trivial matter, no matter what we are asked to do, we can't agree. ”
Shi Jinyan whispered: "Silly girl, do you really think that the prince will let us help him rebel?" How could you tell us this kind of thing when we first met? Besides, our fathers are both court officials, so he is not afraid that the emperor will know about us when we say it? ”
Ban Lingruo said: "I also wonder, this prince didn't avoid the two of us in these words, so he said them in a grand manner." ”
Shi Jinyan said: "You think back to what this prince said!" It can be said that everything was said, or it can be said that nothing was said. ”
Shi Jinyan and Ban Lingruo were discussing, when suddenly Sima Hongyan interrupted them and said, "You two don't have to guess, this prince was sent by the emperor at all!" ”
This was beyond the expectations of the two, and at the same time there was an exclamation of "ah"!
Shi Jinyan immediately retorted: "Impossible! Although Prince Yan Hao seems to be indifferent on the surface, after all, he was the crown prince back then, and he has been under house arrest in the capital by the emperor for more than ten years, so he must have resentment in his heart. How could the emperor let him come and tell us these words? It's so unconscionable! ”
Ban Lingruo also said: "Sister, I also feel a little reluctant what you said. If you think that the emperor is going to send someone to test us, who can't be sent, why should you send this prince? Even if the emperor really wanted to send him, there was a secret in what he said, and it was likely that the emperor set a trap for him. He's not stupid, he won't come if he dies! ”
Sima Hongyan smiled: "It was the reason you two said that made me think that the emperor sent him." If it was his own will, he would not have come if he was killed. What you both think is what everyone thinks, so it's the best fit for him to come. Do you understand? ”
Shi Jinyan said strangely: "Why did the emperor do this? Don't trust us? What haven't we done so far? ”
Sima Hongyan said: "I haven't thought of this yet. But today's sudden arrival of this prince, I don't think it's as simple as it seems, I'm afraid there are other meanings. We're going to have to be more careful in the future, and I always have a bad feeling about it. ”
Shi Jinyan's body trembled slightly, and said, "If it is really as you said, this is the emperor's arrangement." Then I think the danger here is by no means ordinary. Originally, I thought that the emperor would agree to your request to establish a women's army, but it was just a whim. Now it seems that the emperor still attaches great importance to this matter, and has tried every means to test us. ”
Sima Hongyan sighed and said, "Do you know? That's not what worries me, but it's what worries me the most! ”
