Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 356 How could it be you?
As a traverser, Liu Xie knew that on the battlefield, sometimes thousands of lives must be invested to attack a strong city.But no matter what, he still didn't want to see such a bloody incident with extremely heavy casualties.

Moreover, he is also not used to treating war as an uncontrollable event, making soldiers in charge and tens of thousands of troops reduced to dolls under the shadow of war.Therefore, for the Battle of Hanoi, although he sent troops later, he had already planned ahead and planned everything.

Those who are good at fighting are guided by their strength.This is a saying that Liu Xie likes very much: To do something, you must know in advance that there is a plan before you do it.This is especially true when it comes to leading troops in battle.Otherwise, not only would he be irresponsible for his own life, but he would also be a blasphemy to the tens of thousands of loyal soldiers who served the country.

Therefore, when Yang Fu was still thinking about how to provoke Zhang Yang to go out to fight in the city, Liu Xie had already brewed a storm in Hanoi County.When the time is right, it will accumulate and surge, which will change the color of the whole Hanoi County.

Wen County, Hanoi County, Sima Mansion.

Sima Mansion is located in the southeast of Wen County, with two entrances and four connections, it is very luxurious.After all, the current ruler of the Sima family is Sima Fang who can't hide from the world.And this person once had a very prominent position-Jing Zhaoyin, a high-ranking official of the Han court with two thousand shi.

At this time in the main hall, the servants were busy cleaning up the messy banquet. There was still a lot of food left on a few small tables. It seemed that the guests were careless and did not have much appetite.

Behind the main hall, there is a corridor and a small garden. Several black-clothed servants are hidden or appearing in the courtyard, and further inside is the inner house of the Sima family.In the inner house, besides Sima Fang, there were two other people.They didn't kneel on the rug as usual when discussing matters, but gathered around Sima Fang with serious expressions.

At this moment, Sima Fang was holding a simple but beautiful order talisman and a letter in his hands, with an uncertain expression.And the person standing in front of him, wearing a flying fish brocade robe and holding an embroidered spring knife, is the most secret brocade guard under Liu Xie's command.

"Lord Sima, here is your Majesty's handwriting, do you have any doubts?" The Jin Yiwei's tone was neither hurried nor slow, neither humble nor overbearing.

Such a change made Sima Fang unable to react for a while. After all, half a year ago, this young man was only an unknown servant in his mansion.But who knew, today he transformed himself into the most mysterious Jinyiwei in the Han Court——this kind of transformation made Sima Fang feel that he had been deceived.

What makes Sima Fang even more resentful is that he has decided to hide from the world, but the court still doesn't want to let him go--different from other scholar-bureaucrats who are full of the idea of ​​being loyal to the emperor and serving the country, although Sima Fang was once one of them, After experiencing the smoky court during the reign of Emperors Huan and Ling, Sima Fang was extremely disheartened towards the entire Han Dynasty.

Therefore, when he took the important position of Jing Zhaoyin, which everyone was eager to envy, he resigned and returned home.Because Sima Fang had already expected that if he was still standing on the leaky ship of the Han Dynasty, he would sink with that ship.Since then, the Yellow Turban chaos and Dong Zhuo's misfortune to Beijing have further confirmed Sima Fang's foresight.

The only thing he didn't expect was that when Liu Xie came to power, Sima Fang thought that the Han Dynasty would fall into the weakness of the young emperor again, and the whole court would continue to fight for power until the Han Dynasty was completely destroyed, but things happened in a 180-degree turn. U-turn.This young emperor not only put an end to Dong Zhuo's rebellion, but also planned a lot of tricks to settle the danger of Li Jue and Guo Si's disaster in Chang'an. Everything about it really made Sima Fang feel unbelievable.

But no matter how unbelievable he was at home, he didn't realize that the young man had unbelievably set his mind on him, and the beating lasted for half a year!
All kinds of complex emotions surged up, making Sima Fang confused, shocked, ashamed, and funny for a while, with mixed feelings in his chest, but he didn't know how to speak.

"My lord father, even if the Han Dynasty made some mistakes back then, it is the past. If there is chaos in the world today, the emperor has the ambition to calm down the fighting and restore the world to a clear state. As a Han official, how can father be blamed for his flaws and be in trouble? In this county?"

The person who spoke at this moment was Sima Fang's eldest son, Sima Lang.Sima Lang has little knowledge, believes in loyalty, and is even more talented when he grows up.When Dong Zhuo was in trouble, Sima Lang saw that Hanoi was not a place to stay for a long time, so he persuaded the whole county to leave.It's a pity that the people are so attached to the old land that they are unwilling to leave. They only moved away with Zhao Zi, his family and Sima Lang.A few months later, hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army gathered in Xingyang and Hanoi.Each sent troops to plunder, and more than half of the people died.

Sima Fang finally sighed deeply after seeing that the face in front of him vaguely resembled his own, and the desire to show off his ambition could not be concealed no matter how gentle it was.

Although what Sima Lang said in his mouth was the way of being a minister that "advance will benefit the world, and retreat will benefit oneself alone", but Sima Fang actually didn't listen to it at all.The reason why he was relaxed at this moment was simply because he thought that he was already the head of the clan, and he was bound to be responsible for the entire clan.

If it was a peaceful and prosperous age, the young people of the Sima family would probably rely on the power of the family to raise a filial and honest talent in the state and county, and be selected as the minister.After staying in the central government for a few years, you may stay in the Central Dynasty to be the history of Cao Yuling, or you may be released as the county magistrate and county magistrate. If you are lucky, you can move to Jiuqing before the age of 40, and you will be named a lieutenant. Infinitely glorious.

It's a pity that the world is in chaos today, especially three years ago, when the so-called "Great Han Dynasty" was left with only a weak monarch and a group of old ministers, lingering on under the chaos of Dong Zhuo, it was horrible.In the past, Qingyun's official career was already full of thorns and thorns.Therefore, the great clans in many places put away their minions one after another, gathered their own children under their wings, and carefully observed the current situation.

If his sons were not so outstanding, Sima Fang would rather let them guard these fields for the rest of their lives.However, apart from Sima Lang in front of him, let's talk about Sima Fang's other seven sons, all of them are amazing.Even Sima Min, who is only a toddler, still shows a brilliant side.Facing such a group of too excellent heirs, it was impossible for Sima Fang to completely extinguish the flame in his heart.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, the world is in turmoil, and the battlefield for heroes has just begun.I am in such a troubled world, but I am still obsessed with being wise and safe, it is too whimsical.

Since it cannot be avoided, choosing a lush tree as soon as possible is the most correct choice.Now, no matter how you look at it, the old tree of the Han court, which is in spring, is very reliable.

"That is to say, Your Majesty asked Cangtou, Tongke and others from the Sima family to pretend to join Zhang Yang's subordinates. When His Majesty attacks the city, he can take the opportunity to open the city gate?" Sima Fang took another careful look at the secret letter in his hand. , he had to admit that this was a good plan to break the city by cooperating with the inside and the outside.It's just that if Li Ying's object is not his Sima family, it will be more perfect.

"That's it." Jin Yiwei bowed slightly and nodded, a relaxed smile flashed in his eyes, and added: "From your majesty's perspective, you will definitely praise the Sima family for their loyalty to the emperor and serve the country. When your majesty calms down the world in the future, The Sima family must also be ministers of the dragon, and they will surely make great progress in the future."

"In this case, I will borrow a good word from the secret envoy." Sima Fang gently put away the secret letter, and thanked the Jin Yiwei with his hands.Now that he has decided on his future path, Sima Fang doesn't care about his previous emotions.What's more, just because this Jin Yiwei can see through his own thoughts, it is worth treating him with courtesy.

However, just as the Jin Yiwei returned the salute, his mind suddenly stirred for a moment.Afterwards, even Sima Fang and Sima Lang could hear the commotion in the outer hall. Before the two figured out that they had borrowed a banquet to hide the secret meeting, but they were found out, the door of the inner hall was suddenly opened. Kick it away!

Jin Yiwei immediately drew out his Xiuchun Knife to protect Sima Fang and Sima Lang, but unexpectedly, the rushing soldiers seemed to know who was in the inner hall, a row of crossbow arrows shot at the Jin Yiwei, and immediately shot the Jin Yiwei Shot into a sieve.Before falling to the ground, this Jin Yiwei still refused to rest his eyes. He didn't know who killed him.

Sima Fang and Sima Lang were calm and not panicked.When Zhang Yang, who was dressed in iron armor and had a gloomy face, stepped into the inner hall, Sima Fang still did not lose his composure. Instead, he calmly asked Zhang Yang a question: "General Zhang, if you dare to ask the people behind the scenes, have you ever come together?"

Zhang Yang was silent, his tense face could not see his attitude towards this matter.Hearing about Sima Fang's question, he even hesitated a bit, and finally reacted, he shouted: "You are plotting a rebellion here, how dare you have the face to question this general?!"

"Rebellion?" Not only Sima Fang, but also Sima Lang at the side thought it was ridiculous: "Our Sima family has been deeply favored by the emperor of Han Dynasty for generations, and we act on the orders of the emperor. What kind of rebellion is this?"

Zhang Yang suddenly choked and couldn't speak.But at this time, a soft and feminine voice came from behind Zhang Yang, and said lightly: "The county magistrate is not as good as the current one, Hanoi is under the rule of Duke Yuan, and what you created is naturally the rebellion of Duke Yuan. "

Afterwards, this person slowly appeared, and Sima Fang and Sima Lang saw him as if they saw snakes and scorpions, they were shocked and said: "How could it be you?!"
