Volume III Family Hatred and National Hatred 133. A belated gift

After telling the West Gate guard about the request, someone went to the inner palace to inform him. It didn't take long for Wang Chebai to arrive from afar with his guards.

"Brother Xian is really bearable, I thought that you would be recruited the next day after leaving, but I didn't expect so many days to be passed. After approaching, Che Bai complained, and asked why he didn't see him in the house last time he went back to the house.

Sima asked that there was something in his heart, and after seeing Wang Chebai, he directly said what was on his mind. There is a tacit understanding between the two, and there is no need to be polite before telling the story.

"Is this really the case?" Che Bai didn't believe it after hearing it, and wanted to confirm it again.

But as soon as he spoke, he gestured again that he didn't need to answer. Sima Wenzhi had never deceived him before, and there was no reason to deceive him in this matter.

"Brother Xian, the last time I came to the imperial city, I was on business, and I didn't check the scenery in the palace. I'm on duty today, so I'm just going to take you around. ”

Sima Wenzhi was originally waiting for a response, but Che Bai forcibly diverted the conversation after speaking again. He didn't know why, and there was a puzzled look on his face.

But he soon realized that it was not convenient here and needed to be explained elsewhere.

The imperial city is sacred, and it is not allowed to bring people into it, let alone take people to wander around. But Wang Chebai is a general here, and the places he wants to take outsiders to are all within his jurisdiction. As long as no one reports it, there will be no major incidents.

Even so, before entering the palace, he still strictly ordered the left and right to keep his mouth shut.

The left and right are his subordinates, although Che Bai has only performed his duties for more than ten days, he is hearty, and he has a lot of favors to his subordinates, which is very popular. When they heard the admonitions, they showed their loyalty.

Most of the places where a few people went were outside the imperial city. Although it is on the outskirts, there are several places with beautiful scenery.

Everywhere he went, Wang Chebai would give some explanations. Someone told him these words just a few days ago, and he is now learning and selling.

When Che Bai explained, Sima asked absent-mindedly. He is most familiar with the imperial city, and some of the words praising the scenery were written by Master Yu back then.

There is a reason for being absent-minded.

After hearing him say what he thought, Che Bai forcibly changed his words, which was a little abrupt and unreasonable.

There must be something weird about weird things, and he has guessed who Che Bai also thought of who did it. There was no response, because he didn't know how to respond, and he couldn't make the man change his mind.

The listeners were absent-minded, and the people who explained became more and more interested. Half an hour later, Wang Chebai stopped explaining.

"Brother Xian, how is Ji Zhi's homework?" After stopping, he suddenly opened his mouth to ask about the younger brother's current situation.

"I haven't been to Ji Zhi for many days, and I don't know how much he remembers. Sima replied after hearing this.

Immediately, he knew what the problem was, and he also thought about some things from the past.

The matter of using an ox cart to pull meat to Qinglong Mountain was hit by Wang Yuanming several times. Sima Wenzhi thought he would ask, but after Wang Yuanming saw it, he would take the initiative to avoid it. Even if you can't dodge, you won't say anything about it after saying hello.

At that time, Sima Wenzhi thought that it was because of his relationship with Che Bai, and Wang Yuanming was reluctant to find out. Thinking about it at this time, he not only knew about it, but had already acquiesced.

The reason for the default is mostly because he is his youngest son Xixi's identity.

Sima asked that he was Ji Zhi's teacher, if Ji Zhi was successful in his studies, don't say that one cart of meat is eaten, and one hundred carts will not be counted. But he didn't teach his homework for a long time, and Wang Yuanming cut off the supply, both as a protest and as a reminder.

After understanding, Sima Wen's mind became calm. At the same time, he made a decision that he would no longer bother others with this matter, and that he would find a way to do it himself.

But the way is not to continue to teach Ji Zhi in exchange for Wang Yuanming's leniency.

Sima Wenzhi has such a temperament, when he has a strange treasure, if I am willing to give it to you, you don't need to pay the price. If I don't want to give it to you, I won't give in even if I am coerced by you.

In his heart, Wang Yuanming's actions at this time were coercion. I'd rather all the wolves in Qinglong Mountain starve to death, and Sima wouldn't bow to him when asked.

"Brother Jianzhi, there is a lot of trouble today, it's not early, I'll go back first. After making a decision, Sima Wenzhi opened his mouth to ask Wang Chebai for his resignation.

After hearing this, Che Bai smiled wryly.

At this time, the sky was still bright, and Sima asked for a bad excuse for his resignation. And some of his heart has been revealed on his face, and it is not difficult for others to guess.

has known each other for more than a year, and Wang Chebai knows a lot about his temperament. After seeing him like this, he no longer deliberately kept him, and personally sent him to the west gate of the imperial city.

"Brother Xian, stay in the house for the next few days, don't go anywhere else. When he was about to leave, Wang Chebai opened his mouth and instructed.

When I leave, I am worried, and when I return, I am even more worried.

Looking at the gate of the county guard's mansion, Sima Wenzhi suddenly felt that the decisions he made in the palace were useless. If you really don't want to bow your head, you shouldn't go back to Wang Yuanming's mansion.

People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. If you don't go to the house, you won't have a place to go for a while. Besides, when he was about to return, Che Bai told him not to go out for a few days.

After a while, the flesh raised its legs and entered the house, deceiving itself in his heart, and then talking about the past few days.

After the turn of the day, for two days in a row, there was nothing unusual in the city.

During the two days of waiting, Sima Wenzhi was also thinking of some ways to solve the dilemma in front of him. But he didn't have any other friends in the city, and Chu and Sima Yingmao couldn't go anymore, and they didn't have a clue for a long time.

On the third day, he didn't want to wait any longer.

Before returning from the mountains last time, he had already noticed something strange about Langya's body. The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt, and I wanted to go immediately.

As soon as he left the house, he saw Wang Yuanming hurrying towards him with a servant. Seeing that he had just come out, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Virtuous nephew, fortunately you haven't gone out yet, come with me. After greeting him, he grabbed Sima Wenzhi's right hand and walked towards his residence.

"My lord, what's wrong?" Sima asked, not knowing what was going on, as he walked.

"Someone in the palace came to deliver the decree, and named the surname, so that the virtuous nephew would inherit His Majesty's will. Wang Yuanming didn't stop, and briefly explained as he walked.

Soon the two arrived in the middle hall, and after Sima Wenzhi entered, he saw a person dressed in the palace and waiting. After confirming that Sima Wenzhi was correct, the man opened his mouth to read out the will.

The content is very old-fashioned, and it takes a lot of cumbersome words to get to the core. Unknown strangers were rewarded for their merits, and Emperor Song gave gold, silver and silk cloth.

Although it was rewarded, there was no reason in the will, most of them praised Liu Yilong's wisdom and compassion for his subordinates. The rest of the words are exhortations to the unknown and strange people to practice virtue again.

Don't be a Song minister, don't accept the property of the Song family, Sima Wenzhi is very obsessed with this criterion. Moreover, in the last few sentences of the will, Emperor Song obviously accused him of being unruly.

Therefore, the palace people had just finished reading the will, and Sima Wen had already made a decision in his heart.

Rejection.
