Li Lingrong nodded with satisfaction and said: "I understand, boss, you have had so little contact with my mother these years. If you had been willing to say these things earlier, my mother wouldn't have to worry about you all day long."
Having said this, she paused, looked at Sima Daozi, who had a trace of frustration on his face, and said with a smile: "But boss, I think the second brother is also dedicated to assisting you, and using Wang Guobao is just a temporary expediency."
What he said makes sense. Xie An has ulterior motives and has been plotting to control our Sima family. Your late emperor once said to me before he died, Huan Wen’s today is Xie An’s tomorrow. My mother has always reminded you to beware of this person.
, this is why my mother asked the second child to come out as the right servant eight years ago to share the power with Xie An. Although the person used by the second child is not that good, Xie An has been in power for many years, and it is not easy for someone to come out and go against him.
, the requirements can’t be too harsh.”
A trace of dissatisfaction flashed across Sima Yao's face, but it disappeared in a flash, and he saluted Sima Daozi sternly: "My second brother has been helping me wholeheartedly over the years. My elder brother will keep this painstaking efforts in mind, even though there are differences in the way he does things.
, but our brotherhood will never change." He said, extending his hand to Sima Yao.
Sima Daozi also pretended to have tears in his eyes, stretched out his hand, hugged Sima Yao tightly, and said loudly: "Brother, I really want to help you, there must be some villain who is hindering it.
Today in front of my mother, we can express our feelings about the flesh-and-blood relationship between you and my brother. This is the spirit of our ancestors of the Sima family."
Li Lingrong laughed so hard that tears flowed down: "Okay, very good, I asked you brothers to come today just to make you remember who are the closest relatives. I don't understand the national affairs, but as long as you can work together, there will be nothing wrong with you."
I’m so worried. Mom, go and tell your late emperor the good news now. You can discuss it slowly here and stay for dinner together in the evening.”
As she spoke, she jumped up from the ground. After all these years, she, the imperial concubine, still had not learned the red tape of the Han court, or was unwilling to abide by it and acted as she pleased, just like the one in the harem back then.

Seeing Li Linrong's figure disappearing from the screen at the back of the palace, Sima Yao slowly stood up from the ground with a stern look on his face. He patted the dust on his body and faced Sima Daozi, who was sitting silently aside, with a cold expression.
He said coldly: "Daozi, since my mother is gone, we don't have to act any more to make her happy."
Sima Daozi smiled slightly: "Changming (Sima Yao's word), I wasn't exactly acting just now. One sentence is true, that is, do you see me as a brother, or do you see Xie An as a brother? I am now
I really don’t understand it.”
Sima Yao suddenly turned around and looked directly at Sima Daozi, and his gaze did not shy away. He faced him head on, with his four eyes almost emitting electric sparks. Sima Yao said sternly: "You are really getting more and more presumptuous now."
Now, do you really think I’m the emperor anymore?”
Sima Daozi sneered and said: "My mother's rule is that there is no emperor and king of Kuaiji here, only two brothers from the same mother. So the younger brother can only be here to ask the elder brother a few honest words."
Sima Yao gritted his teeth: "I made it very clear, Wang Guobao is a treacherous villain who brings harm to the country. Look at the evil villains he uses. In order to defeat Xie An, he defeated the country at the hands of such people.
?Don’t you have any brains?”
Sima Daozi shook his head: "Wang Guobao is only looking for money. Xie An wants the world. You can get rid of the villains who are looking for money at any time, but how can you get rid of the powerful ministers who are looking for the world? If Wang Guobao hadn't gone out to join forces this time
Other aristocratic families have tampered with the Xie family's Northern Expedition, and I'm afraid that your throne, Chang Ming, will no longer be guaranteed."
Sima Yao said bitterly: "This is the most terrifying thing. Wang Guobao can actually find someone who can harm Xie An. What a powerful force this is. I asked you many times who the other party is, but you didn't mention it.
Aren't you afraid that what Wang Guobao did to Xie An today will be what he will do to you and me tomorrow? Do you dare to use such a person?"
Sima Daozi sneered: "It's just another big family. They have done this not once. How many emperors in our Jin Dynasty have been deposed by them, and how many emperors have died young and unclearly? They have not been able to do this for so many years.
They are polite enough to attack us. They just want to use us to deal with Xie An. After overthrowing Xie An, they will be safe and will naturally not harm us. At that time, we can take away Wang Guobao and select real people from the aristocratic families.
Isn’t it enough for talented people to take charge?”
Sima Yao said coldly: "Aristocratic family? Not necessarily. I heard that you and Wang Guobao are very close to those demons of Tianshi Dao. They are the most dangerous guys. The aristocratic family will also play tricks to pretend that the king has real power."
, these demons just want to establish a kingdom of gods on earth, don’t you know about the Yellow Turban Rebellion of the Later Han Dynasty?”
Sima Daozi gritted his teeth: "The Beifu Army you want to control is a good guy? These rough Jingkou Qiuba only know how to use a knife. Changming, we all know our own weaknesses. We can't control this army. What do you want to borrow?"
This marriage, marrying into the Xie family, bringing over the Beifu army, and going on the Northern Expedition myself will all be an empty dream."
Sima Yao blushed and said loudly: "None of this has come true yet. How do you know it is just a dream? How do you know it is empty? Daozi, let me tell you, the Eight Kings Rebellion in the Western Dynasty is what I am most worried about.
Even if you don’t have this intention, Wang Guobao, as well as his recently recommended Prince Qiao Sima Shangzhi, and Sima Xiu’s brothers are all members of the clan, so aren’t you worried about what they want to do?”
Sima Daozi sighed: "Changming, our ideas are too different. There is nothing to argue about. You are the emperor and you have the final say. I am just making some suggestions on personnel appointments and removals. Use them if you think they are useful or not.
Even so. But I must remind you that Wang Guobao and other families have served us for many years and played a great role in overthrowing the Xie family. If you marry Xie An's granddaughter at this time, it is a betrayal of them. The Xie family
They may not be loyal to you, and Wang Guobao and the others will definitely be disappointed with us. If you want to ask for help in the future, I am afraid that even this evil villain Wang Guobao will not come back."
Sima Yao gritted his teeth: "In any case, this marriage has been concluded in advance. Things will happen step by step in the future. Wang Guobao and the others have helped. I will give them corresponding rewards, but I will not sit back and watch them harm the country."
.Daozi, I can leave the governor of Yangzhou and the Beifu Army under your control first, but you must not leave them to Wang Guobao!"
