In Sima's mansion, Sima Zhengde was recuperating from his injuries.

Sima Chao pushed the door in, and the Wang family, who was serving by Sima Zhengde's side, retreated when he saw this and quietly closed the door.

Sima Zhengde saw his son, beckoned him to him, and said: "Now Your Majesty is no longer a doctor, and yesterday Guo Guifei sent someone to see her father, she wants to form an alliance with our family." ”

"Concubine Guo Guifei intends to marry Princess Shuangchi to you."

As soon as Sima Chao heard this, he frowned slightly, and replied: "If you want to form an alliance with Guo Guifei, there is not only one way to marry. ”

Sima Zhengde replied: "I know that you don't want to marry that princess, but if you don't marry, others will marry." ”

"After we support King Qi to ascend the throne, do we still have to share power with others?"

Saying that, Sima Zhengde sighed slightly, and said: "It's a pity that Guo Xiaotian is dead, and the king of Qi is too young." ”

He looked at his son meaningfully: "The task of this marriage can only fall on your shoulders. ”

"I know you're reluctant, but it's just an expedient measure, you just need to marry that princess, you have a beloved woman, no one cares how you want to pamper you."

Sima Chao smiled bitterly and replied: "The child's wife is a dignified princess, if she wants to embarrass my beloved, who can restrain her?" ”

Sima Zhengde glanced at his son and changed the topic: "I heard that the Luo clan went out of the house?" I heard you guys were having a bad time? ”

Sima Chao hurriedly replied: "How can there be such a thing, it's just that her Eminem is sick, and the child pities her for having no father or mother, just such a close person, so he has always allowed her to take care of Eminem outside." ”

"When her Eminem recovers, she will come back naturally."

Sima Zhengde coughed twice and replied: "These things shouldn't be said much for my father, if you like that woman, it's okay to spoil her, but before the big thing, don't want your children's personal feelings." ”

Sima Chao made an inaudible "um" sound, and replied: "This, naturally there is no need for my father to say more, the child has been fighting with his father since he was a child, isn't it just for my Sima family to have the day when they can reach the top." ”

When Sima Zhengde heard this, he finally showed a smile and said, "My father knows that you are an ambitious person, and now you are not far from that step." ”

"It's important to have the power alone at the moment, so whether you like it or not, the princess has to marry first, understand?"

Sima Chao naturally knew the current situation, he nodded and said: "The child understands the severity, the father should not worry, it is important to have a good birth and a good body." ”

Sima Zhengde has always loved his eldest son, he smiled and nodded at his son, and then admonished: "I have written to reinstate your official position, and I have to keep an eye on it in my womb this time." ”

Sima Chao nodded, and said some important things to his father, and then he went out of the house to let his father rest and recuperate.

Wang was guarding outside, she saw Sima Chao coming out, hurriedly stepped forward, pulled him into the side room, frowned and asked, "Chao'er, what did you think about what your mother told you a few days ago?" ”

Sima Chao thought for a while before he understood Wang's intentions, he frowned slightly, and replied, "Did mother say about Wang Jia's cousin?" ”

Wang Jia since the Sima family temple calculated that Luo Fu could not be defiled by the coachman, and soon after returning to the Wang family, it was found out that she was pregnant, and the Wang family had no choice but to quietly give her a drink of Luozi soup to get rid of this injustice, but Wang Jia did not think that Wang Jia was bleeding profusely, although he finally saved his life, but he was completely injured and could not be pregnant again.

With such a thing, Wang Jia can no longer get married, that is, he married someone without telling the world, and once the husband's family finds out about this secret, the Wang family can't afford to lose this person.

After thinking about it, the Wang family planned to marry Wang Jia to Sima Chao, even if he couldn't be a wife, he would admit it as a side room.

One is that Wang Jia knows that she can no longer be happy, since she is infatuated with Sima Chao, she is also willing to be small, and the other is that Wang Jia is in Sima Mansion, Sima family cannot escape responsibility, Wang Jia is married, and she will not be wronged.

So far, it can only be done in expediency, Fang Clan gritted her teeth and swallowed it into her stomach, found the Wang Clan, and all kinds of coercion and temptation made her facilitate this matter.

The Wang family didn't dare to offend his mother's family, so he could only nod and agree.

Wang looked at Sima Chao, wiped his tears and said: "Your cousin is pitiful, you just think that she is your dearest, just include her, she doesn't want to be a wife, it's just a side room, what can hinder you, in the future, just let her follow me." ”

Sima Chao glanced at the Wang clan and snorted coldly: "Why did she ask me Sima Chao to help her cover up the evil things she did?" ”

"Mother and tell the Wang family, I don't agree to this."

After that, Sima Chao raised his leg and left, and when the Wang family saw this, he hurriedly grabbed Sima Chao and said anxiously: "Isn't the Wang family your mother?" If you want to succeed, won't you rely on the Wang family in the future? It's just a favor, what if you say yes? ”

Sima Chao said impatiently: "In short, I won't accept her." ”

After that, she ignored Wang's obstruction and strode out of Shuangfu Hall.

Sima Chao can ignore Wang's stepmother, but he can't ignore his father, who has always favored him.

Marrying Shuangchi and forming an alliance with Guo Guifei is a great opportunity for the Sima family to monopolize power.

But Sima Chao's heart was chaotic.

If so, will Love ever return to him?

Sima Chao knew that he should not be bound by his children's personal feelings at this critical moment, but he couldn't control his heart.

Sima Chao's entourage brought horses, and he stepped on the horse and went straight out of the house.

It was evening, the restaurant was full of diners, and Sima Chao went straight into the courtyard through the back door.

Love was watering the newly planted phoenix tree, she was dressed in an elegant cloth dress, and only a silver hairpin was on her head.

The sun sets, the sunset, the quiet courtyard, the demure woman.

At this moment, all the sorrow in his heart was thrown out of the clouds, and those power chases seemed to be unable to withstand the peace of mind of this moment.

"What are you doing standing there stupidly? But is there any news of my brother? ”

It wasn't until Love raised his eyes that Sima Chao eased his mind, he walked up to Love, took the ladle from her hand, scooped it out and poured it on the tree, and when he was done watering, he turned and went into the house.

Love followed in, he glanced at Sima Chao's frowning brows, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" But what happened? ”

Sima Chao sighed slightly, then lay down on her back on the bed, and replied leisurely: "It's nothing, I just feel tired and want to sleep." ”
