Xie An said: "As far as I know, now that the Demon Sect has been bulldozed, the whole capital is under the control of the Xiongnu, and our people are rushing to the south of the Yangtze River, Lord Wang, what can the emperor do if he sends Qin to send him at this time?" Sima Rui said: "Is it telling me to send troops to the king?" Xie An said: "This is only one aspect, I think the emperor will definitely add an official to you." At that time, you will be the rightful prince. Sima Rui was overjoyed when he heard this. Xie An asked rhetorically: "How does the prince want to deal with it then?" Sima Rui thought for a while and said: "The additional officials will definitely accept it, and as for sending troops, I think I have to discuss it with the generals." ”

Xie An said: "Lord Wang, I don't think I'll send troops soon. "Why did the military advisor say this?" Xie An said: "You think, now that the capital is empty, and the Huns are unpopular, if we take advantage of this opportunity to send troops, we will definitely win a big victory." As long as we take the capital, the world will be firmly in our hands. But no matter how shrewd Xie An is, he can't exhaust everything in the world, and what happened next surprised him. Sima Rui listened to Xie An's words, pondered for a long time and said: "Military advisor, you don't know, it can be said that it is our world in Jiangnan, but if we occupy the capital, the strength of our Great Jin princes will naturally be no problem, but the Qin Dynasty is eyeing our Great Jin, they have enough soldiers and strong strength, and if they rush over desperately, it will be our strength that will suffer." You also know that now the heroes are divided, and there is nothing without strength. Xie An listened and said, "What is your purpose, prince?

Sima Rui smiled when he heard this: "Those who know me are also military advisors." So who can be the commander of this expedition?" Xie An said: "I look at the two marshals, one is Zhao Guokai and the other is Wang Daolin. I think that Wang Daolin should be the marshal of this expedition, and he can be ordered to command 100,000 troops to go to the capital. In addition, I heard that in Master Xiaolin, there is also a descendant of Zhuge Liang, named Zhuge Yuanying, this person is also resourceful, it can be said that this expedition is a military division, you can make an order to be a military advisor with the army. Sima Rui was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately sent a decree to worship Wang Daolin as the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, and command 100,000 horses and horses to choose a northern expedition. "Immediately send people to report eight hundred miles to Wang Daolin's army. All of this is ready, just waiting for the arrival of the messenger.

When the sun was turning westward, someone came to report: "Lord Qiqi, Qin has arrived." Sima Rui and Xie An listened to the music in the two corridors, and the lights were hung at the door and the colors were hung at the second door. It's very lively. Sima Rui dressed up and led hundreds of civil and military officials to the city gate to greet him. In front of the city gate, there were more than 40 palace guards, surrounded by a small sedan chair. Sima Rui immediately stepped forward and bowed. He said in a loud voice: "Sima Rui greets Lord Qincha. I said it three times in a row. I saw the sedan curtain lifted, and an old lady came out of it, this old lady looked very energetic and dressed neatly. Don't look at the seventy-year-old, but the ears are not deaf and the eyes are not dazzling, and the station there is different. Sima Rui looked at it and said, "Sima Rui is seeing Lord Qincha." Xiao Wanrong looked at Sima Rui in front of her, and saw that this young man was in his twenties, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and he couldn't help nodding his head when he stood without being angry and arrogant. , said in my heart: This is the child of the ugly child, my own grandson. It's a shadow of his grandfather. It seems that there is a successor to my Sima family. Thinking of this, my heart was excited, and tears almost fell.

Xiao Wanrong walked up to Sima Rui and said loudly, "You are Sima Rui?" Sima Rui immediately replied: "I am Sima Rui." Then Xiao Wanrong said: "Sima Rui took the order." As soon as he said this, Sima Rui and the others immediately fell to their knees, and he said in a loud voice, "Sima Rui takes the order." Xiao Wanrong read the holy decree aloud. That basically means that the royal family Sima Rui was promoted to the king of Luangye. Ming Qi chose to attack the rebellious Xiongnu and restore our Great Jin Dynasty. When Xiao Wanrong finished reading it, Sima Rui said loudly: "Minister Sima Rui received the decree and thanked him. Then the people offered the decree.

After all this was over, everyone let Xiao Wanrong into the city. They came to the palace and took their seats. Xiao Wanrong looked at Sima Rui and said, "Child, do you know me?" Sima Rui bowed and said, "Old man, I don't know you." Xiao Wanrong looked at Sima Rui with caressing eyes, and then said, "Do you know someone I mentioned to you?" Sima Rui said: "Old man, please speak." Xiao Wanrong said: "Do you know Sima Decai? When Sima Rui heard this, he said, "He is my father." Xiao Wanrong said: "That's right. You are my own grandson, and Sima De is my son. I didn't expect that our two mothers would be able to see each other in this life. Speaking of this, Xiao Wanrong couldn't control herself anymore, and he took a step forward to hold Sima Rui in his arms.

Sima Rui was blinded by the scene in front of him. He stood there expressionless, even taking a few steps back. Xiao Wanrong realized that she was a little abrupt, no wonder, this kid has never seen herself since he was a child, just by your words, people can believe it? So he said: "If you don't believe it, I'll tell you one more thing." When Xie An heard this, he couldn't help but look at a large number of Xiao Wanrong carefully. Don't look at this woman at such an age, but the corners of her eyes and eyebrows are still dignified, and she is definitely a person who has seen the world extraordinary. So he said, "Old man, don't get excited, don't say anything slowly." ”

Xiao Wanrong said: "Is there an edict here in you, written in blood?" In this edict, your father Sima Decai was crowned King Zheng, but he was hereditary. That edict was written by your imperial grandfather. When he said this, Sima Rui immediately understood that this person was his grandmother, and he couldn't fake it. He heard his father say that because his father left the palace very early to learn art, this edict was collected by his grandmother for many years. By chance, he handed over this edict to his father Hu Da. But soon he committed suicide by throwing himself into a well in order not to drag down his father, but how could he appear here again? But listening to his words, it was absolutely true, Sima Ruiduo would come to trouble, he immediately knelt down on the ground and kowtowed, and said: "Grandma, my grandson is not filial, and you have made your old man suffer. "As the saying goes, a person receives a word, and a Buddha receives a stick of incense.

Just this sentence brought tears to Xiao Wanrong's eyes. Yes, what is the purpose of tormenting and toiling for many years? Isn't it just for today? Isn't it just for my grandson to inherit the will of his ancestors so that the cause of the Sima family can continue? To put it bluntly, I just hope that he will one day inherit the great unification and become a generation of Ming monarchs? For this day, no matter how hard it is, it will be worth it. Sima Rui knelt down, Xiao Wanrong rushed over and hugged Sima Rui tightly in her arms for a long time. Then he slowly held her face with both hands, looked up and down, left and right carefully for a long time, and then muttered: "It's a little like your imperial grandfather." Xie An knew that the imperial grandfather he was talking about was actually referring to Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty. That was a good emperor who opened up the territory, that is, he inherited the will of his father and brother, unified the whole of China, and established the Great Jin. It is precisely because of his arrogance and lasciviousness that he caused the Eight Kings Rebellion and caused today's chaotic situation. Did she want her grandson to be emperor?
