Chapter 043: Harmony and hatred are inseparable

On top of this heavy court hall, Emperor Yanzhen and Sima Hongyan seemed to treat others as nothing, and the two were like a father and daughter who teased each other on the street, talking and laughing, and discussing a national event back and forth.

Everyone didn't understand why the emperor was so generous to Sima Hongyan, nor did they understand that Sima Hongyan could accept it so calmly. To say that these two people should be more hostile. Sima Hongyan committed suicide by taking poison because he was divorced by the emperor, although he later came back to life, his reputation has been lost, and it is estimated that no one will dare to marry in the future. If you don't say bitter and bitter hatred to the royal family, how can you not get along with each other in old age? But she just talked to the emperor like this, laughing and coquettish, how could she look like she couldn't live at the beginning?

This emperor too! When he repented of his marriage, he did not allow Sima's family to enter the palace again. But sitting here today is better than coaxing this Sima Hongyan than his own daughter. And put the power in her hands to form an army. What's going on here? What made these two people change their temperaments? Acting? Who can you show it to?

Can't figure it out! Can't guess! Studied but cannot comprehend! Maybe only they know it in their hearts.

Although it is not easy for Sima Hongyan to win three firsts, there is also a poem Jinyan who also won three firsts and two seconds on his knees! is not only the first talented woman in Yanling, but also the first talent, with more than 100 elites in Yanling. Just kneel like this, you can't raise your head and kneel like this! Some people are already tired and sweaty, and some people can't even hold it back.

But so what? Today, the emperor is interested in Sima Hongyan alone, and he hasn't seen anyone else again. People are different, it has nothing to do with your family, it has nothing to do with your identity, anyway, today's protagonist is not destined to be you!

Under the relaxed conversation between the emperor and Sima Hongyan, the atmosphere in the lobby was not as serious as when he first came in. Ban Lingruo secretly moved the sore part of his body and quietly looked around. I wanted to look up to see the situation, but I hesitated for a long time and didn't dare to look up. But when I saw Shi Jinyan not far from me, I saw that her face was like water, not happy or angry, like a sculpture, as if she had never moved and knelt there. And Li Siyu next to her was already soaked with sweat.

In front of the imperial power, you have nothing to complain about, and no one dares to complain. Who asked Sima Hongyan to say something that interested the emperor! And the emperor accepted it!

At this time, I only heard Emperor Yanzhen say: "Let you do such a big thing, I naturally have requirements." First, the Tournament of the Five Nations is approaching, and you are not allowed to lose any of the three firsts you have won against other countries. Not only for yourself, but also for the dignity of Yanling, can you do it? ”

As soon as the matter rose to the dignity of the country, Sima Hongyan naturally couldn't refuse, so he had to say: "The courtiers do their best!" ”

"It's not an effort, it's a must!" Emperor Yanzhen said without flinching.

Sima Hongyan gritted his teeth and replied, "I promise!" ”

Emperor Yanzhen continued: "Second, for the construction of this women's army, you have to write a detailed plan and submit it to me, and I will not give you a time stipulation, the sooner the better!" ”

Sima Hongyan nodded and said, "I also agree to this!" ”

Emperor Yanzhen said: "Third, the establishment of the army requires the appointment of generals, and you can call the shots. But I ask you to give preference to the daughters of the eunuchs, including my princesses. ”

Sima Hongyan asked strangely, "Why is this?" ”

Emperor Yanzhen said: "For me, Yanling is full of civil and military affairs!" ”

Sima Hongyan immediately understood and replied, "No problem! ”

Seeing that Sima Hongyan reacted very quickly, Emperor Yanzhen was very satisfied and said, "Fourth, during the preparation of the army, you have to enter the palace every ten days to report the progress to me in person. You can't speak, you can't write letters, you have to come yourself. May I? ”

Sima Hongyan thought for a moment and asked, "Then what if I get sick and can't get out of bed?" ”

Haggling for Sima Hongyan's love, Emperor Yanzhen frowned and said, "Then you will let people carry you here!" ”

Sima Hongyan said helplessly: "I promise you!" ”

Emperor Yanzhen smiled and said, "Good! Finally, if one of the few requests you agreed to just now cannot be fulfilled, the matter of the women's army will be stopped, and I will ask you to compensate for all losses, and I will demote you to a concubine and expel you from the capital. If you cause me unnecessary trouble, I want your head! Do you understand? When he said this, there was a hint of calmness in his tone.

Sima Hongyan was taken aback, looked at Emperor Yanzhen, and didn't dare to answer for a long time. Even the people kneeling at the bottom couldn't help but be awe-struck, the envy, jealousy, and dissatisfaction just now all disappeared, but they were secretly glad that it was not themselves who were on it.

After being silent for a moment, Sima Hongyan's face returned to normal, and he responded: "The courtier understands!" ”

Have courage and responsibility! Emperor Yanzhen was extremely satisfied and nodded.

After the big event was finished, Emperor Yanzhen said to the people who were still kneeling below: "Everyone is flat!" ”

Everyone thanked them and stood up slowly, and a few people were still picked up by the people next to them.

Emperor Yanzhen stood up and said, "You worked hard just now. Sure enough, it deserves to be my outstanding generation in Yanling! After this competition with other countries, if we can win Yanling, you will all have another rank in the official position in the DPRK and China in the future. I also hope that you will live up to the expectations of the country and contribute to the country. As he spoke, he said to the eunuch Suishi: "After retiring from the palace, each person will be rewarded with 100 taels of gold and 100 pearls to comfort today's hard work!" ”

Everyone was overjoyed, and once again knelt down on the mountain and shouted, "Thank you, Lord Longen!" ”

I made a fortune unintentionally, and I don't feel much pain in my knee at the moment. After kneeling for a while, I was rewarded, and I also got an official promotion in the future, which is really cost-effective!

Sima Hongyan understood in her heart that this was the emperor sending her a favor, after all, she had been sitting for so long, and everyone had been kneeling for so long. In fact, she was embarrassed in her heart, but she really didn't want to say this for everyone! Now that the emperor has relieved everyone's hearts for her, she is very grateful in her heart, and she doesn't feel that the conditions just now are too harsh.

Walking out of the palace, Ban Lingruo had already held back a stomach and wanted to ask, and as soon as he got into the carriage, he couldn't wait to ask Sima Hongyan what was going on today?

Sima Hongyan smiled: "I know what you are curious about, don't talk about you, everyone here today has the same problem as you." But it's not convenient now, let's go home and talk about it! ”

Back in the east of the city, the two entered the Red Lady Garden. A table of good wine and good food was put on the table, Sima Hongyan and Ban Lingruo drank two glasses before saying, "What do you want to know?" Just ask. ”

Ban Lingruo put down the cup and thought for a while: "What makes me wonder the most is why the relationship between you and the emperor seems to have never happened?" Have you forgotten that the decree almost killed you in the first place? ”

Sima Hongyan smiled slightly and said, "I guess this is also the place that others don't understand the most!" Actually, little sister, if you think about it from another angle, the previous incident had nothing to do with the emperor at all. ”

Ban Lingruo shook her head in confusion.

Sima Hongyan took a bite and said: "The rumors about me at the beginning were deliberately created by someone, and the emperor didn't see it with his own eyes, so he could only listen to what people said." Since someone deliberately framed him, he would naturally buy off the person who reported it to the emperor. Therefore, it is normal for the emperor to make a will to revoke the marriage contract. ”

Seeing that Ban Ling was somewhat understanding, Sima Hongyan said again: "At the beginning, I came back from the dead, and then my temperament changed greatly, and everyone in Yanling knew it. Whatever the reason, whether it's true or not, but one thing is true. I accept the result of the divorce! ”

Ban Lingruo's eyes widened, and she asked in surprise, "Then sister, are you..... What exactly is it? ”

Sima Hongyan said: "Little sister, you may not be able to understand the feeling of walking through the ghost gate, at the moment of facing death, I suddenly found that I was so ridiculous. For the sake of worthless dignity, I gave up my life so easily! Whatever you lose can be regained, but you only have one life! ”

These words are not Sima Hongyan's nonsense, when he woke up in the coffin, he called the heavens and the earth to be inspiritual, and he faced death at that moment. In the midst of all hopes, the only thought is that if you can survive, you must cherish life the most.
