"Pit" you for three lives and three lives

Chapter 71

Wei Lang defended against the enemy in Xiangyang, while Xie Lian trained troops in Jingkou.

After Sima Yu walked from Jingkou all the way to Xiangyang, and then returned to Jianye from Xiangyang, he became even more busy.

It is common for him not to enter the yard for ten days and a half months, and when he comes back occasionally, he only eats, drinks, and makes the bed here, and is often called out after eating halfway.

The war in Jingzhou has already spread, and it is expected that after the offensive and defensive battle in Xiangyang in the west has a result, a large-scale war in the east will be approaching.

Sima Yu put all his energy into it.

This is not an era when the emperor lights up the beacon, and the princes of the world lead their troops to serve the king one after another.It is not an era when the emperor stretches out his hand and rushes out money from all directions.The only certain land in the south cannot be handed over to the Hu people, and it must be fought.But how to fight, that is the final decision of each family.The emperor can give advice, but whether people listen is another matter.Anyway, everyone knows that "government belongs to the aristocratic family, and priests belong to the Sima".

Although most of the Beijing officials are loyal to the emperor, in the eyes of most officials in the frontiers, the emperor only needs to be obedient and serve as a display.Change people if you don't want to, it's the same anyway.

This situation changed during the reign of Empress Xiaozhen. At that time, with Huan Buqing present, Empress Xiaozhen could rule the world with power and force.As far as the queen's remaining power is concerned, she can even support her daughter to succeed to the throne.But since the princess disappeared and Huan Buqing rebelled, the majesty of the imperial power has not been restored.

The emperor worked hard for many years before he could improve a little bit - at least no one would dare to resist the order in the face of Sima Yu's current measures.

Only at this time, Ah Li will feel that he was born to be the fate of the crown princess.

——Nowadays, among the fifteen prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River, the military and government affairs of six prefectures are in the hands of the Wang family, and most of them are not overseas Chinese prefectures with people but no land.If it is marked on the map, probably the entire Yangtze River Basin is under the jurisdiction of the governor surnamed Wang or the military governor.Only Xuzhou and Yanzhou near the Huaihe River in Jiangbei were governed by Yu Lin and Xie Bing respectively.Leaving aside the Yu family, the three generations of the Xie family are all princelings.The roots of the Wang family are flourishing, and each sect forms horns with each other, and each has its own standpoint, and there is no such thing as a direct line that overwhelms the other branches.However, Wang Tan also has the means and prestige to rule the entire sect.

Ah Li just married Sima Yu, and it saved him a lot of trouble—although it caused a lot of trouble for her father.

But even so, there are still people in the Sima family who want to trip her up.

After autumn and winter, when the weather turns cold, the palaces and courtyards also began to distribute clothes to keep out the cold.

Ah Li is not a very fair person either. Among Sima Yu's six named concubines, she only has friendship with Zuo Jiasi, and she knows that she fell into the water too cold, so she gives her a lot of weight.

Just like that, I still feel that she may not be enough - this girl looks as delicate as a flower, but she is a big eater.I'm afraid it won't be enough if I have another convulsion from time to time, if it causes any trouble.

Ari was just surprised that she seemed to be quiet for two months in late autumn this year.When Qiu Yu was the fattest, Ah Li thought that the female officer in charge of flowers, trees and aquatic plants in the courtyard was coming to sue Zuo Jiasi again from her side, but it didn't work out.

After distributing the clothes that day, when he was free, he simply went to visit her palace quietly.

"Recently, I have enough food and food." When asked, Zuo Jiasi said, "Everyone takes care of me."

She just finished speaking, and sure enough, a little girl came in with snacks and tea.Then he asked Zuo Jiasi carefully what else he could order.

"It's gone, you all go down." Zuo Jiasi said, his tone seemed a little sullen.

The maid stepped back.

Ari laughed and said, "Why, you don't look happy?"

Zuo Jiasi nodded, lowered his head and pulled the teacup, "Seeing them smirking, I feel very annoyed... Why do you pretend to like me so much when you turn your back on them and make cold remarks? "

Ari couldn't help laughing, "You don't care what they are doing behind their backs, aren't you just looking for trouble? People look at their faces, not their butts."

Zuo Jiasi was depressed, "Sister, you don't understand..."

"Then let's hear it."

Zuo Jiasi became even more upset, and after a long silence, he said to Ari: "They taught me how to protect myself and how to be rich."

Ari fell silent.

——Actually, in the first episode, she should have discovered these.

Everything needs an opportunity, and that opportunity is when Zuo Jiasi met Sima Yu.Because this girl has enough beauty, there will be no man who will not be fascinated by her beauty.

Yu Xiu is jealous of this beauty, she can send Zuo Jiasi to the East Palace.If Ah Li is jealous of this beauty, he must make Zuo Jiasi his enemy.

So how should Zuo Jiasi protect himself at this moment?

It's nothing more than two things: to please Sima Yu and the queen mother, and to guard against Ari.And pleasing Sima Yu is also her way of wealth.

Zuo Jiasi herself doesn't like to think about these things. She was forced into the East Palace, and her mentality has always been relatively negative.But when she met Sima Yu, those women who tried their best to make Sima Yu look at them, they would immediately understand the value of Zuo Jiasi.Even if Zuo Jiasi didn't want to, I'm afraid they would lure her into this path half-hostagely.In many matters, they will even take the initiative to match Zuo Jiasi.

If they were just thinking about how to lure Sima Yu to Zuo Jiasi, that's fine.Ari is afraid that they are still pretending to be smart about other things.

"Others teach you, you just don't appreciate it, why are you still annoyed?" She asked, "What did you say that made you dislike?"

"Yeah." Zuo Jiasi's boredom accumulated for several months finally vented in front of Ari, "They want me to be on guard against sister."

This one is bound to happen, Ari just listened with a smile.Anyway, she and Zuo Jiasi are the big fool who meets the second fool, if one of them has bad intentions, the other will definitely die a miserable death-but then again, with her heart and Zuo Jiasi's sensitivity Well, if someone really has bad intentions, the two will not be attracted to each other, just don't be defensive.

"I also said that the King's Mansion of Kuaiji sent me in, he was my backer, and I should keep in touch with each other often, and exchange information."

Ahri spit out the tea as soon as she took a sip - she was too honest.

Zuo Jiasi complained a little when he saw her eyes, and shut his mouth and didn't speak.

Ari wanted to cover it up, "This... these words can't be regarded as harming you."

"Yeah, don't hurt me." Zuo Jiasi bit her lip, as if she wanted to push Ari out of the door and stop interacting, "Just teach me how to crawl around, recognize a thief as a father, and repay my kindness. No matter how stupid I am, I will always know who Treat me well, whoever harms me still wants to use me."

Ari smiled and said, "You have a clear distinction between grievances and grievances."

"This is the simplest truth. When I was very young, my aunt told me a word called 'repay grievances with straightness, repay virtue with kindness'. It means that if someone bites you, you bite back. You still have to vent your anger. When others treat you well, you should treat them well until you have a clear conscience. However, the people I meet are all vindictive and virtuous, so I can neither bite to the fullest nor be nice enough to talk to each other. .Only my sister has virtue towards me, and only the king of Kuaiji has only resentment towards me. Sister, tell me, they want me to do the opposite, what is their intention?"

"What intentions do you have..." Ari ruffled Zuo Jiasi's hair sadly, "There are not only grievances and virtues between people, but also pros and cons. They are people who calculate the pros and cons. Loathing someone may not necessarily be because someone has a grudge against her, it may just be that people hinder her. Treating someone well or liking someone may not necessarily be because of who is a good person, it may just be that people give her benefits."

People who calculate the pros and cons of living are often like ducks in water, and they can have both sides.Those who live with the heart, but often lose ground, care about one thing and lose another.

Because virtue and resentment are not so clear in the world, but interests are everywhere.Knowing how to be grateful and complain does not hinder people's survival. As long as you are good at weighing the pros and cons, you will not make mistakes and endanger yourself.

Pure emotion often cannot tolerate calculations.In the end, it is often hate because of love, seeking perfection and destroying.

This is probably how Zuo Jiasi treated her in the first episode.

"Sister wouldn't be like this." Zuo Jiasi said again.

"It's hard to say," Ari laughed, "If you dare to rob my husband, I will bite you to death."

Zuo Jia thought for a while and said, "That's because I failed my sister first, and there is nothing to complain about if my sister hates me."

Ari smiled and rubbed her head again, "Even if you let me down first, I probably don't have the heart to really bite you to death. I guess I will just hate you so much that I send you far away to the sky. I don't want to see you anymore."

Zuo Jiasi also laughed, "I also think that my sister is like this. My sister is too dumb. She is like a tortoise. She pokes it and shrinks back in a muffled voice. She won't even cry out." Then quietly, " But I won't bully you."

"Hmm..." Ari smiled bitterly.

If he really just wanted to help Zuo Jiasi hook up with Sima Yu, it would be unreasonable to persuade Zuo Jiasi to get involved with King Kuaiji.

Ari knew that what he had guessed was probably true.Then he reminded Zuo Jiasi: "It looks like the Empress Dowager's birthday is coming, and the King of Kuaiji is going to Beijing too. This man definitely has no good intentions in sending you in, so you have to be careful."

"Ah."

Ari actually thinks this exhortation is quite useless——Zuo Jiasi may be wary of King Kuaiji, but does King Kuaiji need to do it himself?And how could Zuo Jiasi be on guard against his brother and sister-in-law?
After thinking about it, he still didn't say anything more.It is impossible for her to help Zuo Jiasi's brother and sister-in-law arrange the way out - firstly, they have a good life in Kuaiji, so they may not be willing to vote for others, and secondly, Ari really wants to know what will be done there.
