As the two of them were talking, Sima Yu suddenly stood up and said thoughtfully: "Uncle, does he know what will happen if the Jin Dynasty continues like this?
If we can't gather these powers, we will let the clans fight each other and the country will rot.
By then, not only will we, Emperor Wu, If one lineage loses its imperial power, the clan will not be preserved, and even the whole country will fall into the hands of foreigners.
I wish your uncle could stay in Luoyang and help me turn this situation around."
When Sima heard this, he hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Even if I die, I will protect your Majesty's country forever."
The next day, Sima Yu issued an edict to worship Sima as Sikong and stayed in the capital Luoyang to assist the emperor.
During the long conversation that night, Sima Yu and Sima came up with a rough strategy for reducing the feudal vassal.
It is to proceed step by step in the manner of starting with the weak before becoming strong, first with the outside before the inside, and first with courtesy before fighting.
The so-called weak first and then strong means to first weaken the currently weak vassal princes and princes, and finally get rid of the vassal kings like the King of Hejian who control several states and hold heavy troops.
The so-called "first outside and then inside" means to first unite the vassal princes and princes after Emperor Wu, that is, Sima Yu's numerous imperial uncles and their heirs.
Eliminate the power of the vassal princes and princes of Sima's collateral line, and then eliminate these uncles of their own.
In fact, it has experienced several incidents before.
Emperor Wu's more than twenty sons only had a dozen left.
The so-called "courtesy first, then military" means to first summon the vassal king to be exterminated into the capital in the name of serving as an official in the imperial court, appoint him to an official position without real power, and then remove his feudal vassal or military power.
When there was really no other way, a large army was sent out for conquest.
In the study room of the side hall, Sima Yu spread out pen and paper on the table.
Planning the details of the plan to reduce the feudal vassal, he made a draft on the paper one stroke at a time, thinking over and over again.
At this time, Du Ting quietly entered the room and waited.
Sima Yu saw that he was hesitant to speak and said: "Du Ting, if you have anything to say, just tell me.
Why don't you hide it from me?"
Du Ting quickly replied: "I dare not hide this from Your Majesty, but the minister ordered the eldest daughter of Wang Yan's family to ask to see Your Majesty.
I just feel that it is not appropriate yet."
Sima Yu put down the pen and paper in his hand, raised his face and said to Du Ting: "It's indeed a bit inappropriate, but it's not for the reason you think, it's just because I'm busy right now.
Let her in."
Of course Sima Yu knew what Du Ting was talking about now.
It's not appropriate to meet Wang Ting.
The Sima Lun rebellion has just been put down, but the influence of the rumors framed by Sima Lun is still there.
Moreover, Wang Ting was indeed a talented person appointed by Sima Zhong to enter the palace during his lifetime, but before the auspicious day came to enter the palace, the incident in the East Palace occurred.
If Sima Yu showed a close relationship with Wang Ting at this time, it would inevitably be used by some people to undermine Sima Yu's reputation.
However, Sima Yu didn't want Wang Ting to misunderstand him, so he still wanted to meet her.
After a while, Wang Ting, dressed in blue and red makeup, walked into Sima Yu's study under the guidance of Du Ting.
"The daughter of the common people has met the Holy Lord."
Wang Ting bowed to Sima Yu with a smile.
"Ting'er, please don't be too polite to me, please get up quickly."
Sima Yun said softly to Wang Ting.
Then he added another sentence: "Now that the whole court is in ruins and awaiting renovation, I am busy with government affairs these days, so it is inevitable that I have neglected Ting'er and have no time to see you."
After hearing Sima Yu's words, Wang Ting felt warm in her heart.
Sima Yu's self-proclaimed words and the name he addressed her showed that he had not changed anything about himself because he ascended the throne.
But when she thought about the purpose of her visit, she felt sad again.
She interrupted Sima Yu and said: "Your Majesty, please don't speak like this.
It offends Ting'er in this way.
How dare Ting'er expect the holy emperor to visit the daughter of the people.
The daughter of the people came to see the saint this time just to see his majesty again, because Ting'er will get married soon."
Sima Yu was shocked and angry after hearing this: "It makes no sense who had the idea.
If you want to marry, you can only marry me as the queen.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
I once said that I fell in love with you in front of the late emperor and all the ministers.
Now I am the emperor." , how can I let you marry someone else, then how can I, the emperor, have any face?"
Wang Ting was surprised and happy after hearing this, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please stop being angry.
This is the daughter's own idea.
After my father heard it, he agreed.
And the reason why I am like this is the same."
Sima Yun continued her words sternly: "It's also for me, right?
It's all because of the rumors that Sima Lun's guy framed me to avoid suspicion."
Sima Yu looked at Wang Ting and nodded in acquiescence, then continued: "Those who choose to believe these rumors will deliberately believe whatever you say.
Those who don't believe it, no matter how they show off their words and pile up rhetoric with ulterior motives."
I won't write it anyway.
You can never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep.
Even if you marry someone else, thoughtful people will still say that I don’t have three hundred taels of silver here.
How could an emperor let his beloved woman marry someone else if there was no such thing as what Sima Lun said.
Everything can be used as an excuse for them, so we don’t have to worry about them at all.”
Listening to Sima Yu's words, Wang Ting's face gradually turned red, and her inner mood became better and better.
She kept nodding like a chicken pecking at rice.
Sima Yu held her little hands and said, "Go back, don't think too much about this matter.
In a few days, I will issue an edict to your house to marry you."
Wang Ting then shyly kowtowed to Sima Yu again and withdrew. palace.
Not long after Wang Ting left, another chamberlain hurriedly entered the room and reported: "Your Majesty, Yizhou has been sent to the palace eight hundred miles away to urgently request military information."
When Sima Yu heard this, his heart sank, knowing that something had happened in Yizhou.
The so-called urgent military intelligence report sent directly to the palace refers to a military intelligence report that has a copy directly delivered to the emperor without going through the Ministry of Education.
Sima Yu took the report from the Huangmen chamberlain, opened it and found out that Zhao Guan, the former governor of Yizhou, had rebelled.
Sima Yu immediately went to the palace to summon Zhongshu Ling, Shangshu Ling and some relevant civil and military ministers.
Zhongshu Ling Zhang Hua and Sima Yu received the military information from Yizhou almost at the same time, and were about to go to meet the emperor when the edict came.
He immediately hurried to the palace with the written memorial.
After some words between Sima Yu and the ministers, the whole story of Zhao Kuang's rebellion was made clear.
Zhao Guang was an in-law of Empress Jia.
He was very frightened when he heard that Sima Lun imprisoned Empress Jia in Jinyong Palace and ordered her to be poisoned with gold foil and wine, and also killed the three Jia clans.
But at this time, the edict issued by Sima Lun to invite Zhao Guang to the capital for the Great Changqiu period also arrived.
Zhao Guang believed that this was a signal to take action against him.
Even if Sima Lun didn't think so, Zhao Kuang was still unwilling to accept it.
Although he was the governor of Yizhou, he was actually a prince.
Now that he is allowed to go to the capital to be a decoration, he is undoubtedly being demoted.
However, Yizhou has dangerous mountains and rivers, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is easy to separate and establish itself.
Now it is the time when Jiuzhou is boiling, so Zhao Kuang has the intention of rebellion and self-reliance.
On the first day that Geng Tenglai, the new governor appointed by Sima Lun, took office and handed over, Zhao Gu ordered his close associates to launch a rebellion and kill Geng Teng, and then openly established a separate regime
