Chapter 344: Three Civil Strife
After accompanying Nan Jiuxiao and his wife to lunch, Sima Hongyan came out of Ziyan Palace. returned to the harem and summoned a few sisters of Shi Jinyan and repeated to them what Nan Jiuxiao said this morning.
Several sisters were stunned by the facts and didn't speak. Half a day later, Shi Jinyan said: "Alas! At first, I only heard a few words, thinking that it was a royal secret, and I shouldn't reveal half a word to the public, including not daring to say more to you. Who would have thought that it would be a big lie, what a joke! ”
Ban Lingruo said: "It's good to do this, everything is fake, and no one will have to sacrifice for it." ”
Zhong Liying said: "That's not necessarily, only a few of us know the truth, and now all countries are trying to do everything for this Qiankun Seal!" ”
Xiao Hongying said: "This is easy to do, let's just take this opportunity to directly create some rumors for the enemy, anyway, it's fake from beginning to end, we might as well take advantage of it, disgusting and disgusting our enemies." After saying that, he laughed unkindly.
Sima Hongyan looked at Xiao Hongying in surprise, but she didn't expect her unintentional thoughts to coincide with her.
After listening to the sisters, Sima Hongyan said: "What Hongying said just now is what I thought, I want to create rumors for Dongning, just say that they have obtained the Qiankun seal." At this time, many countries are eyeing us, and we do not have the strength to fight multiple enemies at the same time, so this opportunity can just give us some time. Qiankun Yin is a hot potato, in fact, whoever gets it is the most troublesome. It's better to let them catch cicadas, and we will simply be yellow finches once. ”
Xiao Hongying said happily: "Sister Hongyan, then leave this matter to me, I like the errand of spreading rumors and making trouble." ”
Sima Hongyan smiled: "This matter is really the most suitable only if it is left to you, you and I have the same idea, I don't need to say that you should also know how to do it, right?" ”
Xiao Hongying said: "Don't worry, sister, I'm good at this." ”
Zhong Liying sighed on the side: "How did you learn a strange skill from this little girl? ”
Xiao Hongying sighed: "People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves!" ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Next, we will concentrate on preparing for Sister Nan's wedding, this is the top priority in Yanling now, and there must be no mistakes." ”
Shi Jinyan said: "You can rest assured of this, everything is arranged, and it is guaranteed that Sister Nan will marry beautifully." ”
A few days later, it was the day of Nanxunyan's marriage. Nan Jiuxiao and his wife, Nan Xunyan and Nan Guying's sisters and brothers temporarily moved to Sima Mansion in Dongcheng, and Sima Hongyan arranged Sima Mansion as Nan Xunyan's maiden home, with colorful lights and joy.
When they got up early in the morning, the Sima Hongyan sisters began to circle around Nanxun Yan, and they were busy putting on makeup and sorting out clothes.
Nan Xunyan said to Sima Hongyan: "You are the Lord of Yanling Feng, why do you do these miscellaneous things?" It would be nice to have the other sisters help. ”
Sima Hongyan said disapprovingly while drawing her eyebrows to Nan Xunyan: "What's wrong with Lord Feng?" Is it wrong to prepare for your sister's wedding? You don't know me yet, so you bother with those who break the rules. ”
Nan Xunyan smiled: "It's no wonder, you are you, the incomparable Sima Hongyan, everything is done by your own temperament." I see that even if I become a relative to Lone Shadow, I can't change this temper. ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Sister Nan! When two people are together, don't think about changing each other, and don't change yourself easily, everything is as it always before to make the relationship strong. If Guo Zidi dares to have any dissatisfaction with you in the future, you can tell me and see how I clean him up. ”
Nan Xunyan's face turned red, and his mouth was slightly upturned and said, "He dares!" ”
Sima Hongyan is in charge of putting on makeup for Nan Xunyan, Shi Jinyan is arranging for the female soldiers to prepare Nan Xunyan's dowry, Ban Lingruo and Zhong Liying are sorting out Nan Xunyan's wedding dress, a set of red brocade skirts, and jewelry to wear for a while, while Xiao Hongying is preparing the items needed for the ceremonial ceremony when the groom comes to pick up the bride.
Ten Red Sleeves was also busy running around at this time, lest something fall in a while.
Nan Xunyan was already delicate, and was painted with makeup by Sima Hongyan, which made her even more charming and charming. When she saw herself in the mirror, Nan Xunyan couldn't believe that this was herself, and asked Sima Hongyan with a smile: "I can't see it, Hongyan, your makeup methods are also so clever!" ”
While the two were talking, Nan Guying walked in from outside, and was stunned when she saw Nan Xunyan, and said with a smile: "In the past, I was always dressed in armor, and my sister was heroic, but I didn't expect to see it today, it turns out that my sister still has such a bewitching side, she is really a beautiful woman!" ”
Nan Xunyan looked at Nan Guying behind him from the mirror and said, "You dare to make my sister happy, believe it or not, I asked Hongyan to clean you up?" ”
Nan Guying said innocently: "My sister is naturally beautiful, why should my younger brother be punished for a few words?" Hongyan, you say, isn't my sister very beautiful? ”
Sima Hongyan said: "This is nature, haven't you heard of it?" The day a woman gets married is the most beautiful time in her life! ”
Nan Xunyan turned to Nan Guying and asked, "Guying, shouldn't you also think about your business?" Since the two are happy, I think it's better to settle the marriage as soon as possible. Dad and mother hope that you will marry Hongyan home soon, such a good wife, you must not miss it! ”
Sima Hongyan smiled shyly, standing beside Nan Guying and peeking at him. Nan Guying took Sima Hongyan's hand and said to Nan Xunyan: "I listen to Hongyan about this, she has a special identity now, and many things have not been dealt with well, when will Yanling's government affairs be more stable." ”
Nan Xunyan turned his head and said to the two of them: "Look at the inseparable appearance of the two of you, if you get married early, you will settle down as soon as possible, and you will never be busy with state affairs, that is all an excuse." ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Sister Nan, don't worry, now that the border is tense, I don't know when it will be possible to start a war with other countries, we are not in a hurry in advance, anyway, he won't run away anyway!" ”
While the three of them were gossiping, a female soldier came into the house and shouted softly: "Lord Feng! ”
Sima Hongyan nodded, asked Nan Xunyan and the brothers to wait, and walked out with the female soldier. The female soldier looked around and whispered a few words in Sima Hongyan's ear. Sima Hongyan groaned slightly, nodded, and asked the female soldier to go back first.
At this time, Nan Guying followed and asked softly, "What?" Is something wrong? ”
Sima Hongyan smiled and said, "If I really can't hide anything from you, I was about to tell you." As he spoke, he whispered something in Nan Guying's ear.
After listening to this, Nan Guying looked at Sima Hongyan's smiling expression, and smiled on her forehead: "You girl is too ghostly, it turns out that you have expected it a long time ago!" ”
Sima Hongyan smiled: "Empathy, if it's you, don't you think this is a good opportunity?" ”
Nan Guying said: "Leave this matter to me, you take care of your sister!" ”
Sima Hongyan said: "You can't handle this alone, so I'm naturally with you." ”
As she spoke, another female soldier ran in and said to Sima Hongyan, "Lord Feng! General Liao said that he had an urgent matter to see you, so please go to the main hall. ”
Sima Hongyan smiled slightly and replied, "Okay, I'll go over now." After speaking, he winked at Nan Guying, and left with the female soldier.
When I came to the main hall, I saw Liao Ziling, Li Mingzhong and many generals were there, and they saluted one after another after seeing Sima Hongyan, with anxious looks on their faces.
Sima Hongyan smiled and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, what's going on?" Look at you all with a sad face. ”
Liao Ziling said: "Lord Feng! Yan Shi rebelled, and now raised 200,000 troops, occupied twelve cities in the southwest, and came all the way to the capital, and the five cities along the way all surrendered without a fight. It is estimated that it will be able to kill the capital in less than a month. ”
Yan Shicheng is a cousin of the Yan family, and he has been a foolish young master since he was a child, and he got into trouble when he was in the capital. Later, because this person had no ability and was not yet successful, Emperor Yanzhen put him far away in Wangyue City in the southwest, gave him the title of honorary king, and did not give him any real power, so he let him be raised as an idle prince. Anyway, it's far away, and it's out of sight.
Unexpectedly, King Yu, who has always had no ambitions, actually raised troops to rebel!
Sima Hongyan didn't seem surprised, and sneered: "It seems that there are still many people who can't accept me as the master of the phoenix, especially since this king is a distant relative of the Yan family, and it is not a strange thing for him to raise troops against me." ”
Li Mingzhong said: "Lord Feng! I think King Yu just wants to take advantage of the opportunity to hold a marriage in the capital, according to the report, the surrender of the five city guards have a close personal relationship with him, it seems that this rebellion has been planned for a long time. ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Of course, coupled with the instigation of the Queen Mother behind him, it is only a matter of time before he rebels." ”
Liao Ziling and Li Mingzhong were both stunned, and at the same time exclaimed: "Queen Mother? Is this related to the Queen Mother? ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Of course. The Yan Dynasty came into my hands so easily, how could the Queen Mother give up? Looking up and down Yanling, only this king can be used. I expected this for a long time! ”
Liao Ziling said: "Could it be that Lord Feng has already taken precautions?" ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Uncle Liao, I don't have the heart to hurt people, but I don't dare to lose the heart of guarding people." I just wanted to see what tricks they could play, but I didn't expect it to be the same old and rebel. It is estimated that they must have made a big statement, saying that I am an unforgivable rebellious minister and thief who seeks power and usurps the throne, traps the emperor, and is unforgivable. ”
Liao Ziling and Li Mingzhong glanced at each other, but they didn't dare to answer.
Sima Hongyan said: "In this case, I don't have to be polite. Saying that, Sima Hongyan came to the map of Yanling, looked at the map and said to Liao Ziling: "Uncle Liao, you sent General Ban Jingchong as the commander and General Guo Jixiong as the deputy commander, and immediately set off with 100,000 troops to meet the enemy in Lingcheng." ”
Liao Ziling pointed to the map and asked, "Lingcheng is still far away from the rebels, why don't we stop it in the front of the city?" The terrain here is advantageous, and the odds of victory against the rebels are greater. ”
Sima Hongyan said: "No, I want to let them go to Lingcheng, that is, to let the rebels come to Lingcheng." Because I have already buried 100,000 troops in the south and north of Lingcheng, once the rebels arrive in Lingcheng, it will be equivalent to entering the pocket I have arranged, and then the 50,000 defenders of the city can cut off the back road of the rebels, and General Ban will give a head-on attack, plus there are ambushes on the left and right, and the rebels will be able to break through in one fell swoop, and none of them will be able to escape. ”
Liao Ziling asked: "It turns out that Lord Feng has a plan for a long time, but why is he in Lingcheng?" ”
