When Sima Chao arrived halfway, he heard the death knell ring.

When Sima Chao walked outside the emperor's bedroom, the hall was full of white fans, and the stairs were full of people, including civil and military ministers, as well as concubines, princesses and princesses who wept in a low voice.

A generation of emperors finally ended his absurd life.

When the chamberlain saw Sima Chao, he hurriedly came over and said, "Young General, the general is inside, let you in." ”

Sima Chao raised his feet and entered the main hall, in the inner hall, the people of the celebrant were busy collecting the emperor's body, Sima Zhengde stood outside the hall, his face was solemn, he saw the eldest son, and couldn't help but reprimand in a low voice: "Where did you run last night?" I've been sending people to look for you, why are you here now? ”

The emperor has already been terminally ill, and the imperial doctor has already explained the aftermath in these two days, at this critical juncture, Sima Zhengde has long told his son to pay close attention to the situation in the palace, Sima Chao has been guarding the inner palace for several days, but yesterday he missed Love very much, so he couldn't help but rush to find her.

It was thanks to him that he had rushed through, otherwise he would have lost his love forever.

The men who could appear inside and outside this temple at this moment were all people at the pinnacle of power, looking at them, Sima Chao suddenly felt that these things that he had been pursuing painstakingly seemed to be more real and happy than the joy he had hugged Love yesterday.

"What did you do?" Sima Zhengde saw that his son was not giving up, so he asked in a deep voice.

Sima Chao hurriedly gathered his thoughts and replied: "There were some important matters yesterday, and I am in a hurry to deal with them. ”

Sima Zhengde glanced at his son and said in a deep voice: "What can be more important than the change of imperial power." ”

Sima Chao was ashamed and asked his father in a low voice, "What does Your Majesty's edict say?" ”

Sima Zhengde subconsciously looked around, rolled his eyes at his son, and said, "Is it difficult for you to remember this?" I thought you were really stupid? ”

Sima Chao was shocked!

If his father knew that he refused to marry a princess for Love's sake, then what would his father do to Love?

His father could favor him, but he would never allow him to ignore his career for the sake of women.

Sima Chaoqiang suppressed the panic in his heart and replied: "How can my father say this, I really had something important to do yesterday, so I left the imperial city." ”

Sima Zhengde sighed slightly, looked at his son and said, "The holy decree has been issued, King Qi has ascended the throne, and his father is the regent." ”

The Sima family and Guo Guifei reached an alliance in the end.

Although the first emperor left a will, but the change of power, the forces of all parties are ready to move, and Sima Chao has a lot of things to do.

But he was always thinking about Love.

The danger she experienced yesterday still made Sima Chao still have palpitations.

It was easy to deal with the important matters in the palace, it was already the full moon rising into the sky, Sima Chao planned to take a look at Luo Fu first, she was about to leave the palace, but was stopped by the people of the first palace, saying that Concubine Xian wanted to see her.

Concubine Xian is Sima Chao's compatriot eldest sister Sima Chuyu.

As soon as he entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, that is, Sima Chao was the leader of the inner court, and he could not see his sister casually, and now the emperor had just died, according to the rules, Sima Chuyu had to mourn for the emperor, so he could get out of his bedroom.

Sima Chao met his sister in the side hall of the emperor's mourning hall.

He couldn't remember the last time he saw his sister, who was still beautiful, but her eyes had long since lost their brilliance.

Sad and desperate.

She entered the palace at the age of sixteen, and now more than ten years have passed, and her good years have been wasted in this unsightly deep palace.

"Brother." When Sima Chuyu saw his younger brother, he cried.

Sima Chao hugged his sister and comforted: "It's okay this time, the emperor is dead, and my father will think of taking you home, and you will be free in the future." ”

Sima Chuyu stopped crying and said with a wry smile: "What if you go back?" My life has been ruined. ”

Sima Chao frowned: "Sister, you still resent your father, are you?" ”

"He's not my father!"

At the mention of their father, Sima Chuyu became excited, he looked at Sima Chao, and said sadly: "Since he cruelly sent me into the palace, I no longer regard him as my father. ”

Her father gave her life, but he killed the happiness of her life for the sake of power, Sima Chuyu, how could she not hate.

Sima Chao saw that his sister was sad, and he was also sad: "Eldest sister, send you to the palace, how can my father not be heartbroken, the emperor has just died today, and my father proposed to me that I want to take you home in a hurry." ”

Sima Chuyu tried his tears and said with a wry smile: "I don't want to go home, there is nothing worth my nostalgia for in that kind of home, leaving here, I will go to the family temple, and for the rest of my life, the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha." ”

Before entering the palace, Sima Chuyu had a sweetheart, but his father still ruthlessly broke them up and forced his daughter to enter the palace.

"Eldest sister."

Sima Chao still wanted to persuade again, Sima Chuyu waved his hand and said: "The most irreparable thing in life is to miss it, in my life, the best thing has been wronged, and for the rest of my life, there is no joy anymore." ”

After that, he said goodbye to Sima Chao and left lonely.

Sima Chao stared at the back of his sister leaving, and he was suddenly shocked.

Once upon a time, he had narrowly missed Love, but fortunately, he had come to his senses.

Out of the imperial city, Sima Chao stepped on his horse and went straight to the family temple outside the city.

He came lightly to the house where Love's live, the moonlight was bright, reflecting Love's quiet sleeping face, Sima Chao saw her, and the impetuous mood of the whole day instantly settled down.

He lay beside her and gently embraced her.

Luo Fu woke up, she raised her eyes to look at Sima Chao, and asked, "I heard the death knell today, the emperor died, right?" Did you leave a legacy? Who ascended the throne? Who is the adjudicator? ”

When Love and Sima Chao were in a quarrel, Sima Chao also secretly asked himself what attracted him to this woman and made him so.

In addition to her beauty, she is far more intelligent than ordinary women.

Sima Chao smiled: "It's really rare, you are half asleep, and your brain can be so clear." ”

"King Qi ascended the throne, and my father assisted the government." He said.

Love breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "Congratulations." ”

Sima Chao hugged her arm tightly and said, "Let's not talk about this first." ”

He kissed the smooth forehead of the woman in his arms, and explained: "I have to be busy for the past two days, and now there is chaos outside, I am worried that this place is not safe, tomorrow morning, I will let the wind send you to a safer place." ”

As he spoke, he sighed slightly, and said: "Also, I'm afraid I won't be able to come to see you from time to time for a while, you have to be obedient, don't run around, after this while, I want to think about the father and marry you, Afu, you have to be obedient, wait for me, you know?" ”
