The army rushed into the palace and beheaded all the eunuchs and ministers. In those few days, the entire Xiyue Palace was like a rain of blood. Except for Xiahou Jian and Xiahou Yan, none of the Xiahou clan were spared, and they all died under the knife.

Xiahou Jian and his son Xiahou Yan hid in the manure tank and were spared.

At this time, Emperor Yanrong's edict arrived, and Sima Yongcheng led the army back to Yanling. If the edict is delayed by one day, it is estimated that Xiahou Jian and his son will drown in the manure tank.

After the Yanling army withdrew, someone rescued Xiahou and his son in the manure tank. Since then, Xiahou Jian has been ill, and it didn't take long for him to die.

As soon as Xiahou Jian died, Xiahou Jian succeeded to the throne. However, at that time, Xiyue had been greatly injured by Sima Yongcheng, and he had no ability to invade Yanling in a short period of time.

In the past ten years of peace, Xiahou Yan has been thinking about seeking revenge on Sima Yongcheng all the time, and hundreds of people in the whole clan have almost been slaughtered.

After talking about the past, Liao Ziling sighed and said: "Although Xiyue's vitality was greatly injured back then, after more than ten years of recuperation, his strength will definitely recover. If the king of a country uses a plot to plot, I don't think it will be too difficult! ”

Sima Hongyan thought for a while and said, "That's right. But the First World War was also issued by the emperor, and my father was ordered to do it, so it shouldn't be blamed on my father, right? ”

"Of course not!" Liao Ziling said: "National hatred or family hatred, which is important?" If you want to take revenge on your family, you can naturally harm your father alone. But he Xiyue has not been a thief to my Yanling for so many years, but as long as your father is here, they will not dare to take a step beyond Lei Chi. Therefore, they can only harm your father first, and then they dare to invade Yanling again. And in the past two years, they have not made any moves on the surface. However, according to my reports, the West Vietnamese are already gathering troops and quietly approaching the border. ”

Sima Hongyan nodded in response, "That's what Uncle Liao said." In this way, whoever is most anxious to make a move next will be the most suspicious. ”

Liao Ziling was transparent to Sima Hongyan and nodded in approval.

Sima Hongyan continued: "The top priority is to find out the origin of this strange insect and how to control it. Looks like I'm going on a trip to a southern exotic country. ”

Liao Ziling stopped: "Nanyi is far away from our mountain and high road, how can you go as a woman?" Too dangerous. Moreover, although Nanyi has never confronted our country head-on, small frictions are often there. It's too dangerous for you to go! ”

Sima Hongyan said: "The matter of going to Nanyi has to be considered in the long run, if there is no careful preparation, I will not risk my life, I still regret my life." But I'm still very happy to have a heart-to-heart talk with Uncle Liao today. ”

Liao Ziling laughed and said, "I didn't expect Sima Yongcheng's daughter to be so sensible between right and wrong. Rest assured, with your Uncle Liao here, you will never suffer in the future. Later, I will inform Wu Zhao that they don't need to report to me again, and they will be deployed by you in the future. ”

Sima Hongyan smiled and said: "Then I will thank Uncle Liao, to be honest, if you transfer them from my mansion, I am really reluctant." ”

The Nine Emperors waited outside for a long time before seeing Sima Hongyan come out. Looking at the look on her face, I couldn't see any clues. Then he said: "It seems that the conversation is good, but the ice release is the previous suspicion?" ”

Sima Hongyan let out a sigh of relief and said, "Some things are directly spoken, but they are simple. I'm afraid that I guess nonsense, and it's easiest to go to extremes. He glanced back at the living room and said, "Today's goal has been achieved, let's go!" ”

In a blink of an eye, another few months have passed, and in winter, Sima Hongyan doesn't like to go out even more, so he practices martial arts in the house every day. They didn't mention anything about Wu Zhao, just like before. Wu Zhao and the others also knew that this young lady was far more tolerant than a man, and she would only do her best from now on.

The Nine Emperors are now a frequent visitor to Sima Mansion, and they will come to chat with Sima Hongyan every once in a while. Once Sima Hongyan asked him why he always ran to her, he was not afraid of rumors outside, and his own reputation was not very good, which affected him a lot on his career.

Who knew that the Nine Emperors didn't care at all, he said that he just liked to talk and chat with people like Sima Hongyan, who were neither big nor small, and had no rules, but Sima Hongyan didn't care about the meal that day.

For the Nine Emperor Princes, they are usually serious and unsmiling, but as soon as they entered the Sima Mansion, they immediately became talking and laughing, and there were two manifestations of no arrogance. Sima Hongyan once commented that this is called active schizophrenia.

Anyway, he is familiar with it, and Sima Hongyan doesn't regard him as a prince even more.

On this day, the Nine Emperor Princes Yan Hong came again, and Sima Hongyan said to him with a disgusted face: "Your Royal Highness the Nine, your old man always runs to me if you have nothing to do." Isn't it a bit inappropriate to eat and drink and not pay for food? ”

Yan Hong was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "Do you still want to ask me to collect money?" ”

"I'm a little embarrassed to collect money." Sima Hongyan laughed and said, "That's it! You teach me a kung fu and use it as food money, what do you think? ”

Although Yan Hong likes to be friends with a bold girl like Sima Hongyan, after all, he still has a royal shelf. His face tensed, and he said, "Since you and I are friends, how can we still measure it by money?" Besides, I haven't had a few meals with you! ”

Who knew that Sima Hongyan's little face was also tense, and he said: "You big man has nothing to do and run to my girl's house, is it reasonable to eat and drink for nothing?" I'm going to chat with you if I'm fine, and I'm not idle and have nothing to do. Besides, I didn't really ask you for money, didn't I just ask you to teach me some kung fu. The capital knows that you have come back from studying art abroad, what can you do if you teach me two hands? So stingy! ”

Yan Hong was scolded by her and said inexplicably: "Then you just said that I will teach you martial arts, won't it be over?" Why are you carrying money for food? Do you think I'm always coming to you? ”

Seeing that Yan Hong was serious, Sima Hongyan couldn't hold back, smiled "poof", and said, "You are a person!" Are you kidding? Do you understand tactfully? Do you understand the use of questions? What is it true that you are a big man and I am a weak woman? ”

Yan Hong's originally serious expression suddenly changed, and he laughed and said, "Yes! I was meant to be joking with you. ”

It turns out that this guy is also pretending to fool himself. Sima Hongyan shouted and said, "You're in trouble, you're in trouble!" If you don't teach me two sets of martial arts today, you won't want to get out of this door. As he spoke, he shouted outside the door: "Master Wu, close the door!" Let the dogs go! ”

In the end, Yan Hong taught Sima Hongyan two sets of martial arts according to her own weaknesses, one is leg technique, and the other is light martial arts.

These two sets of skills are in the lower game, and only when the lower game is stable can they have an absolute advantage in the battle. If you can't beat it, you can still use it to run!

Sima Hongyan studied very carefully, not to fight with people in the future, but to martial arts is really broad and profound, once you get started, you will be out of control. Yan Hong even said that she was a bit of a martial idiot!

At the beginning of the modern school endorsement, Sima Hongyan was not interested at all. But when he came to ancient times to learn martial arts, he was extremely smart and drew inferences from one another. Whether it will be useful in the future or not, it is never a bad thing to learn. Especially when she is still thinking about avenging her father Sima Yongcheng, she can't do anything if she doesn't have any skills.

Another few months passed, and under Yan Hong's guidance, Sima Hongyan learned quickly. Especially in light work, Sima Hongyan fused his own yoga body method, and unexpectedly found another way and was unique. In the end, it was not easy for Yan Hong to catch her.

In the blink of an eye, March is approaching, and another grand event in Yanling is about to be held, which is the annual martial arts conference.

On this day, Yan Hong came to Sima Hongyan, and when he entered the door, he said: "This year's martial arts conference is a little different!" In the past, only the people of his own country could participate, but this year, the emperor changed the rules and even invited the other four countries to come. ”

Sima Hongyan said: "Then how to judge whether you win or lose, you can't come to us to be an official if someone from another country wins, right?" ”

Yan Hong said: "Naturally not! The emperor has a number of rewards, if I am a Yanling person, or an official or a property, you can choose one. If another nation wins, he will be rewarded. ”

Sima Hongyan wondered, "What does the emperor mean by this?" Isn't this a gift to an outsider for nothing? ”

Yan Hong smiled mysteriously and said, "How could the emperor be so stupid? Gold and silver are secondary, but do you know what the final winner will be rewarded? ”

Seeing Yan Hong's mysterious appearance, Sima Hongyan was even more curious, and asked urgently, "What is it?" You don't want to sell it, okay? ”

"It's the city!" Yan Hong said heavily.
