Li Han wandered around for more than two months before returning to Chang'an.
In the past two months, he had contacted many parties, and finally more than ten princes, including Sima Ying, agreed to join Sima Yong's operation.
This result is not surprising.
After Sima Juan's defeat, Sima Yu used the power of victory in two consecutive rebel wars to speed up the process of reducing the vassal state.
Six vassal princes and princes who had left the town were ordered to surrender their military power and return to their fiefdoms.
There were also nine vassal princes who were accused of violating the etiquette system.
In addition to the state charges, there were more than 20 princes who were sent to the capital and assigned a sinecure position.
They were actually under house arrest.
All the vassal kings could now clearly see that Sima Yu was deliberately trying to reduce the vassal state.
With an edict, he told the world that it was only a matter of time before all clans and feudal lords were abolished.
However, intimidated by Sima Yu's power, most of the princes were still unwilling to follow Sima Yong, and Sima Ying brazenly rebelled.
There are only a dozen people who are willing to give it a try, and among these dozen people, the only ones who are really capable of fighting are Sima Ying, King of Du, and Sima Yue, King of East China Sea.
Li Han met Sima Yong, the king of Hejian, and after reporting the diplomatic results of his trip to him, he gathered his group of literati and bachelors and began to write a crusade against Sima Yu.
This job is not as simple as it sounds.
After all, Sima Yu is the legitimate emperor today.
The statement must be orderly and coherent, and firstly, it must be logically connected and without flaws, so that people in the world can believe that Sima Yu indeed committed regicide and his father, which was a treason; secondly, it must be ethically based on the classics, without any flaw.
Only by refutation can the world be convinced that although Sima Yu had actually ascended the throne as the emperor, because of his regicide and his father's behavior, it was still in line with Confucian law and etiquette for the rest of the Sima clan to launch a rebellion to avenge the late emperor.
These scholars were surrounded by Li Han in a palace, consulted various historical books and scriptures, and drafted one draft after another, which was reviewed by Li Han and revised repeatedly.
After several days of burning the midnight oil and writing furiously, the draft is almost finalized.
Li Han rubbed his darkened eyes, preparing to take a good nap after lunch.
Unexpectedly, not long after he fell asleep, he was shaken awake by a servant.
Being woken up from a deep sleep can be very emotional.
Li Han's red eyes stared at the personal servant fiercely, and angrily said: "Bold slave, why do you disturb the master's good sleep?
Believe it or not, I will skin you?"
The servant was so frightened that he knelt down and apologized, and explained: "It's not that the villain deliberately disturbed the master's rest.
In fact, the people in the palace wanted to summon the master to the palace, and the persecution was very urgent.
The villain had no choice but to do it."
Wake up the master."
When Li Han heard this, all his sleepiness disappeared and he ignored the servant.
After getting out of bed, tidying up my clothes, I hurriedly got into the carriage and headed to the Prince's Palace in Hejian.
"Why did the king summon his subordinates?"
Li Han looked at Sima Yong who was full of anger with some confusion.
Sima Yong handed a piece of blue paper and a roll of silk satin to Li Han and said, "You will understand after you look at this."
Li Han opened the paper and looked at the content, and was shocked.
This is exactly the edict issued by Sima Yu to inform the world.
The content of the edict directly stated that Sima Yong conspired to rebel and assassinate the imperial officials.
He was an unforgivable evil.
He ordered the pastors, prefects, and princes of the surrounding states in Guanzhong to cooperate with the imperial army to fight against it.
Li Han frowned and muttered to himself in confusion: "How did Sima Yu know that we killed Huangfu Zhong?
Even if it was just the news of Huangfu Zhong's death, it would not have spread to Luoyang so quickly.
Liu Yin told me that Huangfu Zhong would be killed."
Zhong and his bodyguards were all killed, and it would have been two or three months before Liangzhou Governor Nanzheng and Luoyang discovered something was wrong. " Sima Yong said angrily: "Liu Yin did not bring back Huangfuzhong's body during that operation.
I felt something was wrong at the time.
But I sent people to Nanzheng to inquire about it and found that Huangfuzhong indeed never returned to Nanzheng."
"It's not possible that Huangfu Zhong survived and then fled to Luoyang.

That's impossible.
Judging from the content of the edict, there is no such thing at all.
There are many arrows in his body and it is impossible for him to insist on going to Luoyang alone.
Then It could only be that the leaked soldiers fled to Luoyang and reported the matter to Sima Yu's court.
Once they checked, they knew that someone was pretending to be the envoy, and that was the only way to blame the king. " Sima Yong waved his hand and said, "It's useless to talk about this now.
Shi Rong, please see how we should act now."
Li Han took a deep breath and said: "Now, Your Majesty, you can only move forward, there is no way out.
Fortunately, we are basically ready.
It's just too late.
If we can send a message to the princes in the world in advance, then our words will be correct."
We are in a better position.
Now that Sima Yu has taken the lead, our credibility will be weaker and fewer people will believe us."
Sima Yong sneered and said: "Whoever cares about the hearts and minds of others will ultimately win the world with a knife.
When he enters Luoyang, everyone in the world will have to believe it, and he will have to believe it if he doesn't.
Now let's get started."
In the Qinzheng Hall of Luoyang Palace, Sima Yu was reviewing memorials from all parties.
After sitting on his knees for an hour continuously, Sima Yu felt that the muscles in the back of his neck were stiff, so he lifted his legs and walked out of the palace into the imperial garden with bright spring scenery to stretch his muscles.
The palace people were accustomed to Sima Yu's habit of doing exercises and running in the garden, and they all thought that the emperor had learned the health-preserving method from some alchemist.
At this moment, a Huangmen chamberlain quietly entered the Qinzheng Hall, secretly took out a packet of powdery substance from his sleeve, and quickly poured it into the teapot on the table.
"What are you doing?"
A delicate voice shouted from behind the yellow door.
Huang Men's hand trembled in shock, and the paper bag fell to the ground, and the powder in the bag was scattered everywhere.
When he looked back, he was immediately stunned and speechless with fear.
The other party is none other than the current queen, Wang Ting.
Sima Yu's harem abolished many etiquette rules, and the queen could enter and leave Sima Yu's palace at will without asking for permission.
Wang Ting had nothing to do today, but suddenly she wanted to see Sima Yu on a whim.
She went straight to Sima Yu's palace next door without bringing any palace maids with her.
I noticed this scene as soon as I entered the room.
After Wang Ting couldn't help shouting, she knew something was wrong, so she walked out of the palace without making a sound.
As soon as she walked to the outer hall, there were a large number of palace people and guards.
Huang Men had already reacted.
He quickly chased after her and grabbed Wang Ting's sleeves.
"You are so impudent, slave!"
Wang Ting saw that he was in a desperate situation and started to scold him loudly, hoping that the people in the outer hall could hear him.
But Huang Men's hands had already pinched Wang Ting's neck, making her unable to make a sound.
The eunuch pinched Wang Ting's neck with both hands and pushed her to the ground.
Her breathing became increasingly difficult, her face turned red, and her feet began to kick.
His vision also began to blur
