Eunuch Liu gritted his teeth and let out a loud "hum": "Thank you, Mangong, for your wonderful granddaughter!"
He waved his hand and turned around to leave. More than a dozen palace servants picked up the betrothal gifts and turned around to follow him.
Xie Daoyun's eyes sparkled with tears and she cried uncontrollably: "My daughter, why, why are you doing this? Liu Yu doesn't deserve this."
Zhi Miaoyin shook his head, and Master Huiyuan shouted the Buddha's name: "Dear donors, see you soon." He strode forward, and Zhi Miaoyin followed him without hesitation, and walked out of Xie together with more than ten monks.
The courtyard of the home.
Xie An looked coldly at the backs of everyone leaving, with a complicated look flashing in his eyes.
Jiankang, Taicheng, Imperial Palace.
In the Chongxun Palace of the harem, an old lady with dark skin and plain silk was the biological mother of the current emperor Sima Yao and King Sima Daozi of Kuaiji, and the current imperial concubine Li Lingrong. She was sitting on a small couch, and he
Her two black sons, one on the left and one on the right, sat below her.
Li Lingrong was the lowest servant in the palace at that time. Because he was a dark-skinned and fat Kunlun slave, he suffered a lot. Because the previous emperor, Emperor Jianwen Sima Yu, was old and childless, and he faced huge pressure from Huan Wen to usurp the throne at any time.
In desperation, under the guidance of the sorcerer and sorcerer, they found the plump and plump Li Lingrong. And this African lady lived up to her expectations and gave birth to two black princes and a princess.
Smashing Huan Wen's attempt to usurp the throne while the emperor had no heirs can be said to be a major contributor to the existence of the Jin Dynasty to this day.
And his two sons, who are emperors, are sitting at the bottom now. Although the two brothers have turned against each other due to the power struggle and have formed parties to fight against each other, and the conflicts are getting deeper and deeper, they still pretend to be in front of their mother.
They must be harmonious and affectionate. After all, the old lady is old and has reached the age where she should enjoy happiness. Even the two brothers have reached a tacit agreement to be harmonious and friendly in front of their mother.
Li Lingrong's thick lips moved and he sighed: "Son, how long has it been since you guys came together to say hello? Has it been half a year?"
Sima Yao smiled slightly: "If we return to our mother's house (although Li Lingrong is only the Crown Princess, here, the two brothers directly call their mother the queen), my sons and the king's brother are busy with state affairs these days, and may not necessarily be free to come over at the same time."
Please give me my regards and please forgive me, Queen Mother."
Sima Daozi also said: "Yes, since the Battle of Feishui, wars have continued, and there are a lot of government affairs to be dealt with every day. This time the Northern Expedition was disappointing, and my ministers and the emperor's brother were also busy non-stop. Today it finally comes to an end. I specially
Get up and say hello to your mother."
Li Lingrong sighed and waved his hand: "There are only three of us here, mother and son, so there is no need for those formalities. You also know that mother has never read any books, and she still can't learn that rhetoric to this day. After this
At the door, you must have the courtesy of a king, but here, it is not necessary."
Sima Yao and Sima Daozi looked at each other, changed their kneeling posture to sitting cross-legged, and said, "Yes, mother."
Li Lingrong nodded with satisfaction: "Son, my mother has taught you since you were young. She was born as a Kunlun slave. She was looked down upon by others and suffered a lot. It is not easy to have your father's blessing to give birth to you.
It's a matter of fact. Ever since you were born, the bad guys in this palace who want to harm you and your father have appeared one after another. Your mother has brought you up. You know how much suffering you have suffered, how many sins you have suffered, and how many revelations you have avoided.
A hidden arrow?"
Sima Yao said sternly: "My mother's gift of giving birth and raising me will not be forgotten by my child."
Sima Daozi also gritted his teeth and said: "It's all because of this piece of shit Huan Wen. He has killed so many people in our Sima royal family, and he also wants to seize my father's kingdom. Fortunately, God has the eyes to take him away and not let his treacherous plan come into play."
Succeeded."
Li Lingrong shook his head: "Is there only one Huan Wen who wants to seize the Sima family? Other aristocratic families don't have such ambitions? Huh, those named Xie, those named Wang, and those named Huan,
There is no difference, the one we can really rely on is not outsiders, but ourselves!"
Sima Yao nodded: "What mother taught you is that you have taught your children since they were young that they must care about brotherhood and that brothers should work together as one heart. Children should not forget this."
Sima Daozi also said: "Yes, mother, I will do my best to assist my brother in this life and cure my great success in the world. Please rest assured."
Li Lingrong gave a heavy "hum": "I am relieved? How do you two want me to be reassured? It has been more than half a year since I visited my mother together. Is this what you did to reassure my mother? Don't think that I am old
I'm confused. I don't know anything about the outside world. When Xie An was in power, you could still work together and fight as a team. Now that the Northern Expedition has failed, there are rumors that Xie An plans to hand over the power of the prime minister. You haven't taken it back yet.
That Huang Yue started to form gangs and kill each other?"
Sima Yao was silent, and Sima Daozi said bitterly: "What kind of bastard is talking nonsense in front of my mother? How can there be such a thing!"
Li Lingrong said bitterly: "Second brother, do you still want to quibble after this matter? Everyone in Jiankang City knows this, why are you still denying it? Have you been following Wang Guobao for too long and made him
Have you learned the tricks of duplicity and disrespecting your elders?"
Sima Daozi quickly straightened up and kowtowed: "Mom, please calm down, my child. I just can't bear to worry my mother, and besides, the matter is not as serious as you think."
Sima Yao sighed and said: "Mom, my second brother is right. We two brothers are in charge of the government, and each of us needs some people. These aristocratic families have their own contradictions. We can't use them all, and we can't use them all.
, because the people who work for us have some conflicts, so the outside world spreads rumors that our brothers have conflicts. In fact, this is not the case. This world belongs to us Sima brothers, how can we still fight and take advantage of outsiders? "
Li Lingrong sighed and waved his hand: "Okay, second brother, don't kowtow. I just want to tell you that the demise of the Western Dynasty was due to this kind of intra-clan war and fratricide, which allowed outsiders to take advantage of it.
, so much so that the royal family has never had power since our Jin Dynasty crossed east and established the country. Now all the old thieves of the Huan Wen family have finally died, and the Xie family has failed in the Northern Expedition and has to hand over power. This is how our royal family can regain power.
At this time, it is also the most dangerous time. Those aristocratic families will never give in. They will sow discord between your brothers and choose sides. Mom asked you to come here today to remind you that your brothers are real brothers. You must not do this.
The misfortune caused by Xiao Qiang allowed outsiders to benefit."
Sima Yao and Sima Daozi looked at each other and said in unison: "Please don't worry, mother. Please bear this in mind, my child."
Li Lingrong nodded and looked at Sima Yao: "When will your new queen enter the palace?"
