"妜?"
"Can you be at home?"
Outside the courtyard, a lady called softly.
The lady is plump, plump, slightly fat, and has a fleshy face, but her face is particularly kind, dignified and elegant, and her smile is even more amiable.
She was accompanied by several maids.
Hearing your lady's call, a maid couldn't help it anymore and was about to rush in, but she stopped her.
"Don't be rude."
She called out again: "Huan? I'm here to visit you."
Someone immediately opened the door. The General's Mansion was huge and consisted of three parts. The backyard where the family lived was divided into more than a dozen courtyards. Sima Ku lived here.
When Sima Yu came out, the lady was stunned for a moment.
We haven't seen him for a long time, but Sima Yu has become so thin, which is really heartbreaking.
Sima Yu's eyes were dull and he looked straight at the lady outside.
The slave frowned, but the lady smiled and said, "Don't you recognize me?"
"Mother"
The lady is none other than Sima Shi's current wife, Yang Huiyu.
Yang Huiyu stepped forward and gently took the other person's hand, "Why have you become so thin? Where is Ping? Aren't you at home?"
"He just went to bed."
Sima Ku's attitude remained indifferent.
Yang Huiyu didn't care about her attitude at all, took the initiative to hold her hand, and followed her into the courtyard.
"Why don't you come to see me? Ping is also my grandson, and I can't see him all day long."
Yang Huiyu took the initiative to talk about family matters, but Sima Yu just answered dully.
The two of them sat in the room, and Yang Huiyu said a lot more, but the atmosphere was still a little cold.
"In a few days, you will enter the palace. I'm afraid it won't be easy to see you again."
Yang Huiyu said, and then said seriously: "Don't worry about Ping, I will bring him to me and take good care of him. You can come and visit him at any time."
Hearing these words, Sima Ku's eyes became somewhat alive.
"Ping is frail and sick and needs to take medicine frequently."
"I have already written down the medicines I need to take every day."
Sima Yu carefully took out the paper from the side and handed it to Yang Huiyu in front of him.
"My mother has never left me since she was born. She lost her father before, and now she has lost me. If he cries, please don't beat or scold him. He is very easy to coax. It only takes a few words. He is very well-behaved, just..."
Sima Yu talked more and more, but every word was inseparable from his children.
Yang Huiyu fell silent.
Since she has no children, it may be difficult for her to understand her mood, but at this moment, she feels extremely uncomfortable.
"Don't worry, I will never let him suffer any injustice. I will let the imperial doctor take care of him and stay with him all day long."
After listening to Yang Huiyu's words, Sima Yu's mood calmed down.
"Thank you, mother."
Sima Ku's voice was also slightly hoarse, like Master Sima's.
"Hey, why are you so polite to me?"
"Don't blame the elders in the family and us. We are born to suffer such things. My mother is like this, I am like this. No one can avoid your biological mother."
Yang Huiyu sighed with emotion, then quickly realized that he had made a mistake. He changed the topic and continued: "This is also a good thing for the children. They will definitely be rich in the future. If they don't give it to them, I will give it to them myself! "
Yang Huiyu comforted him with a few words, and when the child woke up, he gave some gifts and left.
After Yang Huiyu, several more relatives came to visit.
These people were all doing "ideological homework" for Sima Yu, convincing her to accept this matter without any objections. In their mouths, it was as if this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that should not be missed.
The last one to come here was Master Sima.
Sima Shi's appearance remained the same, and was different from everyone else. Sima Wei just went out to pour water, and saw his father standing in the courtyard, looking around.
Sima Kuan looked at his father quietly and did not bow to him.
Master Sima didn't care about this. He looked at his skinny daughter without any fluctuation in his eyes. He walked into the house and sat down.
"Sit down."
"Um."
"Ping has been having a lot of fun at my place these past few days. With You accompanying him, he is not lonely."
Master Sima said calmly.
Yang Huiyu came again a few days ago and took Ping to his place, saying that he would gradually adapt to it. The young Ping did not feel anything was wrong. Yang Huiyu was indeed obedient to him. There was also Sima You playing with him.
Sima Yu secretly visited several times, and seeing the smile on her son's face, her mood became much more stable.
"Thank you, Father."
Sima Yu said coldly.
Master Sima said: "Tomorrow, you will go to the palace to meet the Queen Mother. Let's not rush the ceremony."
"Then, you will stay with the emperor. I don't need you to do anything more. You just need to stay in the harem. I have already arranged the rest."
Master Sima wanted to insert his hand into the palace. With his daughter in the harem, he could legitimately gather the people in the harem around his daughter and cut off the power and influence of the Queen Mother.
There were many officials in the harem. From cleaning, washing, dressing, cooking, serving, almost everything, there were officials responsible for it. Most of them were eunuchs, but some were also held by scholars.
In fact, some familiar military positions are also officials in the harem. Officials in the harem are collectively called eunuchs, and eunuchs are not necessarily eunuchs.
Using the queen to fight the queen mother is a valuable experience left by the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Master Sima slowly talked about the things that Sima Yu should pay attention to, in great detail, and would stop to ask questions from time to time.
Sima Yu listened to his instructions expressionlessly.
"Okay, I won't say much about the rest."
Master Sima stood up slowly, with an indifferent expression, and said, "By the way, your father-in-law's decision to arrange for you to go to the palace was not yours."
"It was my decision. Your father-in-law just didn't want to make you sad and didn't want you to know that this order was given by me, so he lied and claimed that it was him."
Sima Yu looked at him calmly, without any emotion.
Master Sima spoke again: "Eat more."
After saying that, he stood up and left.
Sima Yu sat blankly in his original position, his eyes empty, but he couldn't even shed tears.
When Master Sima walked out of here, Zhong Hui was waiting for him in the distance.
"General."
Zhong Hui helped Master Sima get into the car. Master Sima was very weak and needed to ride in the car even in his own mansion. Zhong Hui also got into the car and sat opposite Master Sima.
"Everything has been arranged."
"The Queen Mother was so timid that she didn't dare to object at all and just accepted this daughter-in-law."
"Your Majesty seems a little reluctant, but it's not his turn to make the decision."
"Ten days later, the temple will officially order Guan Qiujian to come to the temple and serve as the Taiwei."
"The army is also ready. Do you want to kill Guanqiudian to sacrifice the flag?"
Master Sima said calmly: "I don't know whether Guanqiu Jian is causing trouble, so there is no need to think about it."
"Will the General really come to the temple to serve as a lieutenant?"
"We will definitely fight this time."
Zhong Hui said confidently.
Master Sima felt very heavy.
He still didn't have enough confidence to defeat Guan Qiujian. Although he had advantages in terms of military strength, food, logistics, morale, etc., Master Sima would never underestimate his enemy.
Especially a fierce general who led an army on an expedition thousands of miles away, defeated the barbarians, and replaced the king.
"I'm afraid that if he delays for a while, if I were him, he would pretend to be ill and say that he doesn't have much time and can't come."
The dilemma that Master Sima faced at this moment was far more complicated than Cao Mao thought.
On the one hand, Master Sima was not sure of victory and did not dare to attack easily. On the other hand, his health was getting worse and he did not dare to leave Guanqiu Jian to his younger brother.
At present, Zhuge Dan's attitude is unclear, and the generals commanding heavy troops may not attack with all their strength.
Guo Huai, in particular, said he was seriously ill and did not express his position at all.
Master Sima was very worried that he was pretending to be ill. If his army went to Huainan and Guo Huai sent troops from Liangyong, wouldn't the world be about to change hands?
Master Sima closed his right eye and began to meditate again.
"Sima Yu meets with the Queen Mother."
"Sima Yu pays homage to His Majesty."
Unless you have the privilege of visiting the Empress Dowager or the Emperor, you must address yourself by your name.
At this moment, in the Zhaoyang Palace, Sima Yu formally paid a courtesy visit to the Queen Mother and the Emperor.
The Queen Mother had no objection at all.
He didn't even pretend to resist, he just admitted it.
Cao Mao was originally worried that the Queen Mother would go to the other extreme, but now it seems that he was overly worried.
It was me who had a high opinion of the Queen Mother. She was exactly the same as Guo Jian. She would swell to the point of flying with the slightest bit of tailwind, but whenever she encountered the slightest bit of headwind, her true colors would be revealed immediately, and she had no intention of resisting.
This is the first time Cao Mao sees his new wife.
The first time he saw Sima Yu, Cao Mao was startled by her and almost jumped up.
picture! ! This is too similar! !
The scrawny Sima Ku was exactly the same as the sick Sima Shi. Even the feeling of dying was the same!
How terrifying would it be if we were living together?
When he opened his eyes, "Master Sima" was lying next to him.
Even if you are not sick, you will be scared to death.
Although I cursed in my heart every day that I wanted to join the Sima Division, I never thought about actually joining the Sima Division!
Queen Mother Guo was a little embarrassed. She had met Sima Yu before. At that time, she still called her sister, but now she suddenly wanted to become her daughter-in-law.
Obviously, she didn't realize why Master Sima asked her to come.
In her opinion, as long as it does not directly damage her own interests, she can give in to whatever she can. As an emperor, it is appropriate to sacrifice a little reputation for the sake of the world.
Sima Wei didn't even look at Cao Mao from beginning to end. She looked straight at the Queen Mother with dull eyes. Queen Mother Guo was a little frightened by her stare. After a few pretentious greetings, Cao Mao hurriedly took her away. .
Cao Mao took Sima Ku out of the Zhaoyang Palace.
He glanced at the "Master Sima" who was following behind him, raised his head, and sighed helplessly.
"well"
"You still have to get used to it..."
ps: Many colleagues are still saying that I am not worthy of Qidian’s recommendation for this first booking. As a result, someone in the comment area actually said that I used the first booking... But I don’t care anymore and am too lazy to refute. I just let them say whatever they want.
Now I just want to write this book, and I suddenly found that state where the more I write, the more I want to write. In this state, I really focus on writing the book and don't want to pay attention to anything else.
Some readers asked me to update it at 10,000 words a day. In fact, I wrote a chapter of 3,000 words, and the guarantee was 12,000 words a day. Today I wrote an extra chapter, 15,000 words.
I will work harder in the future. If the status continues to be hot, maybe you can see Lao Lang update 20,000 times a day, hahaha.
Finally, I want to ask my brothers and sisters for monthly votes~
