After giving way to my husband's sweetheart

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

When Sima Chao walked outside the emperor's sleeping hall, the outside of the hall was covered with white flowers, and the steps were crowded with kneeling people, including civil and military ministers, and concubines, princes and princesses who wept softly.

A generation of emperors finally ended his ridiculous life.

Seeing Sima Chao, the servant hurried over and said, "Young general, the great general is inside, let you in."

Sima Chao raised his foot and entered the main hall. In the inner hall, the inspectors were busy confiscating the emperor's body. Sima Zhengde stood outside the hall with a solemn expression. When he saw the eldest son, he couldn't help scolding in a low voice, "Where did you go last night? I've been ordering people to look for you, why are you here now?"

The emperor was already terminally ill, and the imperial physician had already explained what happened in the past two days. At this critical juncture, Sima Zhengde had already told his son to pay close attention to the situation in the palace. Sima Chao had been guarding the palace for several days, but yesterday he missed Love very much, so he couldn't help but rushed to find her.

Thanks to him rushing over, otherwise, he would lose his love forever.

The men who can appear inside and outside the palace at this moment are all at the pinnacle of power. Looking at them, Sima Chao suddenly felt that these things he had been pursuing painstakingly were not as real and joyful as he was when he hugged Love yesterday.

"What did you do?" Seeing that his son was out of his mind, Sima Zhengde asked again in a deep voice.

Sima Chao quickly collected his thoughts, and replied: "I have 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, "Is there anything more important than the change of imperial power?"

Sima Chao was ashamed, and asked his father in a low voice, "What about your Majesty's will?"

Sima Zhengde subconsciously looked around, rolled his eyes at his son, and said, "Why do you still remember this? I thought you were really insane?"

Sima Chao was shocked!
If his father knew that he refused to marry the princess because of Love, how would he treat Love?

His father could favor him, but he would never condone him disregarding his fortune for the sake of a woman.

Sima Chaoqiang suppressed the fear in his heart, and replied: "How can father say that, I really had something important to do yesterday, that's why I left the imperial city."

Sima Zhengde sighed slightly, looked at his son and said: "The imperial decree has been issued, King Qi ascends the throne, as father and regent."

After all, the Sima family and Concubine Guo reached an alliance.

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

He was always thinking of Love in his heart.

Sima Chao still had lingering fears about the dangers she experienced yesterday.

After finally finishing the important matters in the palace, the full moon had already lifted into the sky, Sima Chao planned to take a look at Love first, but she was about to leave the palace, but was stopped by a palace official, saying that it was Concubine Xian who wanted to see her.

Concubine Xian is Sima Chuyu, Sima Chao's elder sister.

Once entering the palace, the gate was as deep as the sea, even Sima Chao, as the head of the inner court, could not meet his sister casually, now the emperor had just passed away, according to the rules, Sima Chuyu had to attend the emperor's funeral, that's why he was able to leave 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. She was still beautiful, but her eyes had long since lost their luster.

Sad and hopeless.

She entered the palace at the age of 16, and now more than ten years have passed, and all her good years have been wasted in this shameful deep palace. Although her face is not old yet, her heart is already riddled with holes.

"Brother." Sima Chuyu cried when he saw his younger brother.

Sima Chao hugged his sister and comforted him, "It's okay this time, the emperor is dead, and my father will find a way to take you home, and you will be free from now on."

Sima Chuyu stopped crying, and said with a wry smile: "So what if I go back? My whole life has already been ruined."

Sima Chao frowned: "Sister, you still resent father, don't you?"

"He's not my father!"

Mentioning 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 killed her life's happiness with his own hands for the sake of power. How could Sima Chuyu not hate him.

When Sima Chao saw his sister was sad, he also felt sad: "Elder Sister, my father is heartbroken to send you into the palace. The emperor just passed away today, and just now my father asked me to bring you home in a hurry."

Sima Chuyu tried tears, and said with a wry smile: "I don't want to go home anymore. There is nothing worthy of my nostalgia for such a home. After leaving here, I will go to the family temple. For the rest of my life, I will see the ancient Buddha with blue lanterns."

Before entering the palace, Sima Chuyu had a sweetheart, but his father broke them up cruelly and forced his daughter to enter the palace. Now, that person is married and has a child. Even if Sima Chuyu has gained freedom, what he missed at the beginning cannot be regained.

"Sister."

Sima Chao wanted to persuade him again, but Sima Chuyu waved his hand and said: "The most irreversible thing in life is to miss it. In my life, the best thing has already been missed. For the rest of my life, there is no joy for me."

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

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

In the past, he almost missed Love. Fortunately, he came to his senses.

After leaving the imperial city, Sima Chao mounted his horse and headed straight for the family temple outside the city.

He walked lightly to the room where Love lived, the moonlight was bright, reflecting Love's peaceful sleeping face, when Sima Chao saw her, his impetuous mood all day instantly calmed down.

He lay beside her, gently hugging her in his arms.

Love woke up with a start. She looked up at Sima Chao and asked, "I heard the death knell today, the emperor passed away, right? Did you leave a will? Who ascends the throne? Who assists the government?"

When Luo Fu and Sima Chao had a quarrel, Sima Chao secretly asked himself, what is it about this woman that attracts him and makes him want to stop so much.

In addition to her beauty, she is far beyond the wisdom of ordinary women.

Sima Chao smiled: "It's really rare that you can still think so clearly even if you are half asleep and half awake."

"King Qi ascends the throne, and my father assists 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 that for now."

He kissed the smooth forehead of the woman in his arms, and confessed: "I have to be busy these two days, and now there is chaos outside, I am worried that this place is not safe, tomorrow morning, I will ask Yingfeng to take you to a safer place."

As he spoke, he sighed slightly, and said again: "Also, I'm afraid I won't be able to visit you often for a while. You have to be obedient and don't run around. After staying here for a while, I will find a way to tell my father and marry you. Afu, you have to be obedient and wait for me, you understand?"
