Sima Jian's eyes were full of surprise: "Meier, you have made a breakthrough!"
Sima Mei looked arrogant: "Yes, father, I finally broke through and entered that realm!"
"You can rest assured and let me protect Xiaolan!"
Sima Jianxing stared: "Nonsense!"
"Although the emperor has not yet decreed a marriage between you and the prince, everyone knows that the prince is eager to marry you and is constantly promoting this matter!"
"Of course the ministers attached to the East Palace are happy to see this happen and have been promoting it."
"So, we are inseparable, the emperor is about to issue the imperial edict of marriage!"
"snort"
Sima Mei Feng's eyes flashed with a trace of murderous intent: "Everyone knows that the prince is lustful and is attracted by the beauty of my second sister and me. He also pulled my Sima family into his chariot to help him consolidate his position as prince."
"We are just tools for him to fight for the throne."
"Father, do you really think highly of him?"
Sima Jian had no expression on his face: "Do you think you have a choice as a father?"
Sima Mei's eyes brightened: "My daughter understands!"
Finished.
Sima Mei turned around and walked out of the study, sending back the words: "Father is a minister of their Xia family, so you have no choice, but my daughter does!"
"If there is a mistake, it is my daughter's fault and has nothing to do with the Sima family!"
Sima Jian watched his daughter's back disappearing in a daze, and then a happy smile appeared on his lips: "If you and Lan'er were boys, you could win everything in the world!"
"What's wrong!"
"Blank paper, order the hidden guards not to stop the eldest lady from running away from home."
"yes!"
There was a response from the roof.
"Order the hidden guards to protect the safety of the eldest lady!"
"yes!"
Sima Jian then murmured: "Mei'er, when you go, do you also want you to seek freedom like your sister?"
The wind and snow were rising outside the door, as if answering the question of the imperial prime minister.
It's a pity that the wind is difficult to understand.
Soon after.
The housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion ran into the study in panic and handed a piece of paper: "Master, it's not good! The eldest lady has run away from home!"
Sima Jian opened the white paper, which read: The world is so big, I want to go out and see the unfilial daughter, Sima Mei!
Sima Jian had an unclear expression on his face and raised his eyelids: "Don't panic!"
"Spread this note and the fact that the eldest lady ran away from home throughout the imperial capital!"
The Prime Minister's housekeeper's eyes lit up, he calmed down, and respectfully exited the study: "Yes!"
"Within an hour, it will spread throughout the imperial capital!"
In the imperial palace, the royal study room.
A small stove is placed in the middle of the study, burning hot water to dispel the coldness in the room.
After Emperor Xia finished approving the memorial, he put down his pen, looked at the door of the study and asked, "Old man, is there any letter from Xiaojiu?"
The old eunuch quickly replied: "Your Majesty, maybe due to the wind and snow, Prince Huang's motorcade did not go far yesterday. They stayed in Taohuawu outside the imperial capital last night. This morning, they successfully set off from Taohuawu Fort and continued their journey. Dahuangzhou."
"oh?"
Emperor Xia's eyes were full of confusion: "Did nothing happen at Taohuawu Fort last night?"
suddenly.
"Plop"
The old eunuch knelt down to plead guilty: "Your Majesty, this old slave is incompetent, please punish me!"
Emperor Xia raised his eyelids: "Let's talk and listen first."
"yes!"
The old eunuch knelt on the ground and said: "Yesterday morning, when Prince Huang went out of the city to receive the wounded soldiers from the prince, the old slave sent spies from the Imperial City Division to follow him all the way. But when they followed him to the city gate, the spies from the Imperial City Division were actually killed by someone. I was knocked unconscious without anyone noticing!"
"Last night, another group of Imperial City spies were spying outside Taohuawu Fort, but they were all silenced!"
"So, I have no idea what happened at Taohuawu Fort last night!"
"This morning, another group of spies entered Wubao after Prince Huang was on his way, and found the corpses of hundreds of black-clad killers hanging in the attic of Wubao. They were covered in scars and had no human appearance!"
"The Imperial City Division has found out that the worst of these hundreds of black-clad killers are third-rate warriors. They are all vicious killers who are famous in the world. They are all the prince's men now."
"According to the speculation of the Imperial City Division, the prince's men failed to attack last night and were killed by Prince Huang instead!"
"What?"
Emperor Xia was a little surprised: "Xiao Jiu led a hundred wounded soldiers to kill a hundred warrior assassins?"
The old eunuch affirmed: "Prince Huang and the convoy that set out today were not damaged at all, but all the prince's people died in Wubao. Therefore, the old slave pledged his head to guarantee that it was the prince who lost."
Emperor Xia's eyes were full of questions: "How did Xiaojiu do it?"
The old eunuch shook his head: "The spies of the Imperial City Division were killed, and I don't even know about it!"
suddenly.
Two rays of cold light shot out from Emperor Xia's eyes: "The prince dares to kill the spies of the Imperial City Division and make me lose my eyes and ears. How courageous the prince is!"
The old eunuch was stunned: "Your Majesty, there is no evidence that these two things were done by the prince!"
"snort"
Emperor Xia snorted coldly and interrupted the old eunuch's words: "The prince went against the will and assigned a hundred wounded soldiers to Xiaojiu. He didn't want the world and me to know, so he sent someone to knock out the Imperial City Secretary at the city gate. Spy!"
"In Taohuawu Fort, in order to attack Xiaojiu, the prince naturally wanted to eliminate the spies around him, so he once again attacked the spies from the Imperial City Division!"
"Prince, even the people from the Imperial City Department dare to touch you now. It's really lawless!"[]
