Country and Beauty

After the unification of Jiangnan, the whole society appeared to be immersed in a wave of flashy luxury, especially after the unification of Jiangnan, the imperial government ignored external threats and spent the rest of its days enjoying the bliss. In addition to the "chaos of the eight kings", the military might of the Western Jin was completely used up. After Sima Chi ascended to the throne, the Western Jin Dynasty was in fact already at the brink of destruction. Although history had recorded that the Western Jin was officially destroyed in 317 A.D., in reality, the Western Jin only controlled a small region north of the Yellow River and the regions of Chang An and Jinyang. These two regions were isolated and had been eyed covetously by the former Zhao Hu.

The first phase was for Wang Yan and Sima Yue to control the political affairs of the empire, and then it was for Lang Xie, Wang Sima and Nan Yang to protect and support the political affairs of the empire. Although the internal and external affairs of the imperial court were difficult for Sima Chi during his reign, as the common ailment of all the emperors in history, they all wished to be in control of the situation and recover from their losses.

Because of the role of Xie Fei, the otherworldly butterfly, the Schell's Chen County, one of the Four Great Clans of the historical Jin Dynasty, did not approach Lang Xie, Wang Sima instead. Since the event of recognizing an ancestor, coupled with the fact that Xie Fei's power had grown stronger and stronger, as a member of the top Scholars, there was no reason for him to touch someone's cold butt with his hot face. Although Xie Pou's family still lived in the Jiangdong, he only acted as the representative of Xie Fei's power on the surface. and also persuade the famous people of Jiangnan to move to the Qin State to help Xie Fei strengthen his Qin Creek.

At the same time, Xie Fei, this otherworldly butterfly, had also caused a chain reaction. He had originally directly helped Sima Rui in the history of the Eastern Jin Director Wang, but Wang Dun's brothers did not begin to support him, but instead turned to Sima Chi, and gave him the title of prime minister while Wang Dun was General An Dong. Wen Qiao, Huan Yi, and Sun Jun, on the other hand, had already pledged their allegiance to Sima Rui.

After Director Wang returned, he talked about countermeasures from, his younger brother. Wang Dun said confidently: "My master who is leading the elite will definitely kill Xie Fei to avenge his brother."

Wang Dun's face was filled with joy. Wang Dun and Xie Fei had fought many times in secret, and each time, they would always end up suffering a loss. Now that Xie Fei's vitality was greatly damaged and his strength was at the breaking point, no matter who it was, they would all feel a sense of relief and jubilation in their hearts, as if a huge stone had been placed on top of them.

Wang Dun pointed to the general and moved towards Xie Fei's location.

Just as Wang Dun was about to lead the troops, a soldier of Wang Dun's army quietly wrote on a piece of paper: "Nowadays, I would like to reward Wang Jun with his efforts to harm Master, please be on your guard."

The soldier handed the horse to his trusted aide and said, "Find the fastest horse and deliver it to the Duke of Qin." "Yes!" His trusted aide turned around and left. Taking advantage of the chaos, he quietly left the army. Relatively speaking, the army of 100,000 was missing more than a dozen riders, so almost no one paid attention to this detail.

Two days later. At noon, the county town of Zhending, the post-war city of Zhending, was desolate. Just at this time, over a dozen riders dressed in Jin Army armors rushed over at the same time, day and night.

"Someone stop." The soldier guarding the door became nervous and shouted loudly. "No interception is allowed in the military newspaper up ahead." Dozens of exhausted Jin Army soldiers roared, showing no signs of slowing down. The Qin soldiers guarding the door did not dare to stop them. Who would dare to stop the army in front of them? A dozen or so fast horses quickly charged into the city. With a flurry of chickens and dogs, they arrived at Xie Fei's temporary residence, the Changshan County Governor's Yamen.

"brocade urgently needs to report!" They had been travelling for two days and two nights at the same time. By now, the dozen or so Knights were almost completely exhausted. After dismounting from their horses, they shouted at the guards. He didn't have any strength left. The leader of the group took out his identity token and powerlessly fell to the ground.

The guards didn't dare to be negligent as they took care of the ten or so knights. On the other side, he took down the messenger tube from the rider's body and passed it to Xie Fei.

Xie Fei looked at the secret letter in front of him and obviously knew what it meant. Xie Fei's face was ashen, filled with anger.

Hong Zhan naturally knew what this news meant.

"Pah!" Xie Fei slapped the corner of the table and fiercely said: "Fuck you. It's not like I can live with them anymore. If I had the ability to take care of Shi Le, Murong Huai, Liu Can and the rest, which one of them didn't have their hands stained with the blood of the Chinese, did they really think that I, Xie Fei am a sick cat that could be slaughtered at will? "

Hong Zhan wasn't as angry as he had imagined. There was an indescribably strange expression on his face. Hong Zhan said, "His Highness Duke of Qin, do not be angry. To our army, this is not a bad thing. Instead, it is a good thing!"

"Oh!" Xie Fei asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

Hong Zhan said, "Your Majesty is heartless, don't blame us for being unjust." Initially, the Duke of Qin had gifted Sima Chi 150,000 elite troops, millions of silver, and nearly ten million taels of rations and fodder. Right now, if Sima Chi wanted to deal with his majesty, it was Sima Chi who was unrighteous. This is the perfect excuse for us to use. "

In actuality, Xie Fei did not have the loyalty of the ancient people to the Emperor, nor did he have the feeling that a ruler would make a dead official die. In the end, whether it was the Jin Army or the Qin Army, they were still part of the Chinese army. If they were to attack the Jin Dynasty now, although Sima Chi would not be worried, but there would still be casualties in the battle, not to mention the mutual slaughter that was not inferior to the eight kings.

Xie Fei said: "What I don't want to see the most is for my own people to kill each other. We are all Chinese, and the same kind of blood flows from our bodies.

Hong Zhan laughed: "His Highness Duke of Qin, currently, more than seventy percent of the troops in this army are still loyal to His Highness. In a sudden attack, they could not afford to overturn the waves. If the Duke of Qin doesn't want to see these casualties, I can order him to capture them alive. "

Xie Fei's brain was working extremely quickly. Actually, he knew that the previous owner of this army was none other than the former Black Shirt Army of the Azure Province. With Xie Fei's prestige in the army and the ability of brainwashing and training, he wasn't actually worrying about his own safety. First of all, as one of the Qin State s, Xie Fei was not a war maniac. His biggest wish was actually to put on his military uniform and make the vow to protect his family and protect his country. In Xie Fei's heart, as the emperor of the Jin State, Sima Chi held the orthodox rule of the Han people. He did not mind fighting with the rest of the people, such as Cow Clan, Capricorn Clan, Hun Clan, Qiang Clan, but the thing he loathed the most was the internal conflict between the Han people. The chaos of the eight kings "is the internal struggle of the Chinese people, which directly led to the collapse of the Jin Dynasty.

Sima Chi's actions caused him to feel endless anger. Xie Fei closed his eyes in grief and indignation. After being silent for a long time, Xie Fei slowly opened his eyes, and said indifferently: "Since this is your choice, you are bound to pay a heavy price! I've already played this game, but if you want to play it, then play it big. "

At this moment, Xie Fei's eyes flashed with a cold light, his eyes that were filled with spirit energy carried with it an unparalleled pressure, as his entire body emitted a cold, sinister aura that caused Hong Zhan to shudder.

Xie Fei pondered for a moment, and asked coldly: "Liu Can's main force has been ambushed by Murong Biao, and lost all of their forces. The former State of Zhao probably suffered a huge blow to their strength as well, so you have to use the fastest time possible to find out how many troops Liu Can has left. At the same time, there is also Shi Le who followed from behind! "

Hong Zhan secretly took a deep breath, he had already vaguely guessed Xie Fei's intentions. As Xie Fei's information officer was also the head of all the secret services in the Qin State, Hong Zhan knew that Xie Fei had secretly given the order the moment he left the army, and had secretly expanded the battle. Could it be that Xie Fei had the foresight to know that this battle would turn out like this? If that was really the case, then Xie Fei's brain was probably terrifying.

Hong Zhan asked, "Your Highness, what do you mean?"

"Let's unite the north for now!" Xie Fei slowly said: "Huns owes the Han Chinese a lot of blood debt, it's about time to take it back."

At this time, Hong Zhan had already confirmed Xie Fei's intentions, and he immediately became excited. He had already felt the blood and terror from Xie Fei's body, and it was filled with shock and fear. At this moment, Xie Fei was truly a wolf in war. It had to be said that every hot-blooded man was proud of expelling a policeman, thinking that the Emperor of Han Wu was so high-spirited, that with a wave of his hand, two hundred and fifty thousand soldiers went on an expedition to the Huns, and stormed towards Dragon City.

Hong Zhan said, "Your Highness is the strongest man in the world. With your lowly position and your understanding of human nature, you can truly be called unmatched."

Listening to Hong Zhan's flattery, even if he went through thousands and thousands of times no matter how much he went through, Xie Fei still enjoyed Hong Zhan's words. Xie Fei laughed leisurely, then suddenly ordered with his eyes that were as sharp as torches: "Immediately send orders, order Wang Meng to be the commander, Du Ceng to the left front line, Beigong Chun to the right line, lead the four hundred thousand foot cavalry, the moment you receive the order, immediately send out your troops to settle down, and along the way, attack the territory of Zhao before the Huns, and kill anyone who dares to resist."

"Someone, come!" Xie Fei said in a clear voice, "I command the two generals, Zu Ti and Shi Yue, to come here to discuss the matter!"

Luoyang. At Lang Xie's mansion, Sima Rui was holding a wine cup and drinking a pure wine that Xie Fei had invented, humming a small tune as he watched the dancers dance. He did not care that the brothel was about to collapse. No matter what the hackneyed hackneyed was up to, life had to be cut. It was as if everything else had nothing to do with it.

Just then, a young man wearing a green robe with a face as smooth as jade came over to Sima Rui's side, bowed and greeted: "Greetings, Your Highness!"

Sima Rui raised his head, looked at the person who just arrived and said, "He's really here!"

The person who came was none other than Wen Qiao (288-329), the son of Wen Ying who was envious of his younger brother. Taiyuan Qi County

(West Shanxi Qi County) people, East Jin statesmen.

Sima Rui's complexion was clearly not bad, seeing that the person who came was from a house who was working hard for warmth, he walked up and pulled on Wen Fu, and said: "Lonely Zheng is in a good mood, you can drink three hundred cups."

Although Wen Qiao's family was illustrious, it was still far from Sima Rui's family's status. Sima Rui raised his glass and urged him to drink, Wen Qiao felt that it was a great honor for him. He immediately stopped acting pretentiously and downed the cup in one gulp.

Sima Rui urged Wen Xu to drink three cups of wine. After drinking three cups of wine, Wen Qiao's face had turned red, it was obvious that he was already somewhat intoxicated. Sima Rui still wanted to continue persuading his to drink, but suddenly he discovered that there was a trace of worry between his eyebrows, as though he was worried about something, and opened his mouth to speak.

Sima Rui replied: "What is it that I'm talking about?"

Wen Qiao asked: "Would you please withdraw left and right, Prince?"

Sima Rui understood Wen Qiao's meaning, after that, he clapped his hands and said to the musicians and dancers beside him: "All of you can leave!"

A dozen dancers and musicians filed out.

Sima Rui's previous dispirited look changed as the aura around him changed. It was as if he had become a completely different person. Wen Qiao felt the domineering air that only I am capable of, from Sima Rui, and thought to himself: "This is the true master that I follow.

Sima Rui said: "Now that there are no outsiders, can you explain your purpose for coming here?"

Wen Qiao leaned over and whispered into Sima Rui's ears.

Even though Sima Rui had become calm and collected, he still could not help but breathe faster. Sima Rui asked: "Is this true?"

Wen Qiao said: "It is true, this news was spread to all the eunuchs and servants who often served Chang De, it is certain that the people involved are the Prime Minister Director Wang and the Great General Wang Dun. This subordinate has sent some people to the two sirs' residence to take a look. We discovered that the two of them had long left the Luoyang, and I am afraid they have already entered the borders of the Jizhou. "

Sima Rui took a deep breath and said slowly: "This matter is extremely important, we must consider our options carefully."

Wen Qiao did not seem to see Sima Chi's true intentions clearly at the start, and said to Sima Rui: "Your Majesty's actions seem to possess them, it is as if there is nothing wrong with it. Although the Duke of Qin is a man of his word, but he has no intentions of rebelling, for the Duke of Qin to pacify the Western Regions and destroy the whole country is a great blessing to the citizens, and now, he has joined forces with the Karma Tribe. Whether it is the Hunchback in the Northwest, or Shi Le in the North, all the Mu-Rong's disease s and Mu-Rong's disease are severely injured. "On the other hand, by entering Yanzhi to the north, His Majesty would be able to calm the chaos in the world. However, His Majesty would want to cause the enemies to be quick and the loved ones to feel regret. This subordinate truly has no way of deducing the divine will."

There was a saying that 'butt decides the head', because Sima Rui and Wen Qiao's positions were different, so the way they looked at things was also different. Instead, Sima Rui felt that what he had done was not wrong, but he still left this opportunity to Sima Rui.

Sima Chi was originally a puppet in Sima Yue's hands, but because of Xie Fei's appearance, Sima Yue had left the stage ahead of time. Furthermore, because Sima Chi had allied with Xie Fei, Xie Fei returned the favor and gave him to Sima Chi's army of one hundred and fifty thousand soldiers. From then on, Sima Chi was no longer the illusory Jin Huaidi in history, but the emperor who held true power. Because Sima Chi was not an expert in power management, but had caused his tragedy.

As an emperor, having no ability was not scary, as long as he could hire people, Western Han Dynasty's Ancestor Emperor Liu Bang was a clear example. Although Liu Bang could not settle down her country, and could not control her martial arts, but he knew how to recognize people, and she could also use people, and using the three horse carriages from the Han Dynasty to create a dynasty of men. Although Sima Chi was slightly stronger than him in terms of abilities, he would not use anyone. If he had some way to not let go of Xie Fei, and let Xie Fei fight with Sima Rui, Director Wang, and another official with ill intentions, his ending would not be this tragic. Furthermore, Liu Kun was an hardcore fan of Sima Chi, and was very loyal to him, but Sima Chi would not give him much importance. If it was a bigger and wider stage for him, Liu Kun would also be able to provide a great help to Liu Kun.

It was clear that Sima Chi did not reuse those people that could change his fate.

Sima Rui was extremely emotional at the moment, although Sima Chi's actions were like playing with fire, at the same time of the danger, the benefits were also great, if he was to eliminate Xie Fei in one move, the Qin State would disintegrate, the world's situation would change accordingly, the Qin Army's fighting strength was strong, the Jin Army and the Qin Army's predecessors were both Black Shirt Army of the Cyan Plains, and at the same time, the fighting strength of the Jin Army was not weak either, otherwise Sima Chi would not be able to stay in this world forever. However, there was a possibility. Was Xie Fei waiting to be killed? Obviously not. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although Xie Fei's vitality was greatly injured, but he still had the power left over from the death of a tiger, so dealing with Xie Fei now would probably not end well. If Xie Fei decided to work together with Shi Le and Murong Huai, Sima Chi's fate would be very tragic.

It was not impossible for Xie Fei to cooperate with Shi Le and the others. Although Xie Fei had fought with them until death before, Sima Rui knew that in politics, there was no such thing as an eternal friend or eternal enemy, only eternal benefits. Right now, Xie Fei, Shi Le and the others were severely injured, but they understood that if Xie Fei died, it would cause Sima Chi to be the strongest in the entire family, and they would also not have a good ending. Now that Sima Chi did this, it was simply too urgent.

Sima Rui said: "It's too true, what should I do?"

Wen Ji pondered for a moment and then said: "Although today is a time of decline, the destiny of the heavens has not changed. But His Majesty's actions would definitely defy the will of the heavens. The hook is deep and the cover is not shallow. "

Sima Rui seemed to have made up his mind. If I bet correctly, with power in my hands, if I lost the bet, I would not lose anything. Worse comes to worse, I will not stay in the Luoyang anymore, and even if I return to the Jiangdong, what can Sima Chi do about it? Sima Rui immediately wrote a quick note and passed it over to Wen Qiao, then said: "Quick, get someone to personally deliver it to the Duke of Qin. If Xie Fei loses, and if the whole world is in chaos, the Jin Dynasty will truly fall."
