Chapter 79 The New Emperor's Will

The news of Jiangling's victory is being transmitted to Jiankang at the fastest speed, and at this time, the battle for Jiankang's power is also in full swing.

Langya Wang Sima Dewen returned to Beijing under the protection of Liu Yu's heavy troops.

This news is not shocking. What is shocking is that King Langya actually holds the jade seal in his hand, and there is also the last words of the former emperor who governs the government.

Of course, Yuxi was snatched by Lu Qiang from Huan Xuan and handed it over to Sima Dewen.

Although no one can tell whether the last words are true or false, Yuxi can't fake it. In this way, Liu Yi, who was determined to establish a new king, was a little at a loss, but how could he easily comply? He immediately returned to the barracks to live, learned from Liu Yu, found a spokesperson in the court, and reported the news in the court to him at any time.

Liu Yi is also amazing now. He has a large number of important ministers of the imperial court, and Wang Mi has also defected to him again, so he has a good right to speak.

The king of Langya returned immediately, and Liu Yu did not have much patience. He directly sent troops to the city and abruptly grabbed half of the control rights of Jiankang from Liu Yi.

Therefore, Jiankang now has two garrisons, and although these two troops are from the same government, they are clear and even occasionally fight. However, without the order of Shangguan, there has never been a large-scale conflict.

Liu Yuli ordered Sima Dewen to succeed to the throne and calm down the government as soon as possible.

Sima Dewen had thought about this result, and after discussing it with his brother, he also knew that it was the best way to keep the throne for his brother, so he agreed.

If it hadn't been for Liu Yi's army, everything would have been fine, but now if Liu Yi didn't agree, things would have been frozen here.

If you ignore Liu Yi and let the king of Langya ascend the throne directly, who can guarantee that he will not lead a large army in? So we have to deal with him before that.

But Liu Yi now has nearly 100,000 troops around him, comparable to Liu Yu. If he really wants to start, it's hard to say who will kill him.

The current situation can be said to be evenly matched, and Liu Yi controls all officials for his use. Liu Yu has the hardware of Langya King and Yuxi, which is righteous on his side. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid the only way is to go to war.

Sima Dewen had a good idea, that is, after ascending the throne, let Liu Yi and Liu Yu enter the court at the same time, so that they can not only continue to pinch, but also play a role in maintaining balance.

It's just that although the method is good, he is still under the protection of Liu Yu. If this idea is put forward, it is no wonder that Liu Yu can be happy.

In the stalemate between the two sides, the news that Lu Qiang Jiangling broke through 100,000 Huan's army spread to Jiankang.

Liu Yi can't sit still, and Liu Yu can't sit still. Who would have thought that Lu Qiang, who started his power with only 3,000 people, would pact Jingzhou in such a short time?

Liu Yi regretted sending Lu Qiang to chase Huan Xuan. Liu Yu regretted why he didn't insert a bar when Huan Wei besieged Jiangling, otherwise Jingzhou might be his.

Bo both knew that there was no place to sell regret in the world, but at the same time, they thought that if they continued to fight so endlessly, they would end up making wedding clothes for others. Therefore, at present, it is best to compromise with each other, stabilize the government, and sit down to share the seductive big cake of government power.

As for whether the human brain will be beaten into a dog brain in the future, or is it better to sit together? That's what happens in the future.

However, although the two felt that a strong way out would not be a stop, they did not realize that he would threaten them. Compared with these old guys, Lu Qiang, a little newcomer, is still very young.

Liu Yu ordered Liu Muzhi to meet Liu Yi, and Liu Yi also sent Wang Mi to find Liu Yu.

Liu Yu's bottom line is very clear, that is, to follow the orthodoxy and take the throne with King Langya. Everything else is good. I have to say that this is Liu Yu's cleverness. I don't want an official position, but my 100,000 army is not air. I support you, the king of Langya, won't be boring at all, right?

On the contrary, Liu Yi is a little inferior. It doesn't matter who is the emperor. What matters is what official position he can hold in the court?

Wang Mi is a great eunuch and a high-ranking official, but he was also called by Liu Yi as a dog and asked him to find Liu Yu, which also showed Liu Yi's attitude.

After a bargain, Liu Yi agreed to Sima Dewen to become the emperor, and he took the position of Sima and led the national army.

It sounds scary. I'm afraid no one can say how many troops can command, but this official position is the first among generals. If he intervenes in things in the army, it is just right.

Of course, Liu Yu can't be busy with his work. He ordered the left servant to shoot the prime minister's government and increase his rank as a general.

Other officials in the court were also rewarded, and they were very happy for a while, but people with good eyes know that this is just the beginning.

Selecting an auspicious day, Sima Dewen led his ministers to worship his ancestors, and then officially ascended the throne as emperor under the worship of hundreds of officials.

This day is a beautiful day, with birds singing and fragrant flowers. Jiankang City is covered with red and colorful everywhere. There is a festive atmosphere. There is no need to fight, the throne has also been settled, and the people seem to see hope again.

At this time, the civil and military officials in the Jinluan Hall are also waiting for their hope.

The new emperor's accession to the throne naturally requires the award, and the list of awards has already been formulated, and there is no need for the emperor's consent.

After the ceremonies, at the behest of Wang Mi, the waiter symbolically asked Sima Dewen, who was sitting there with a smile, and then read it out loudly.

In fact, many officials, including Liu Yi and Liu Yu, are a little puzzled why Sima Dewen looks happy? These decrees were not drawn up by him. He is just a brand. What's to be happy about?

Why are you happy? Of course, only Sima Dewen himself knows.

"What the royal brother said is right. In the eyes of these traitors, is there still a little loyalty to our Sima? Let's be happy to be all sealed! When my royal army comes back, let's see if you can still laugh?"

After a long time, the long imperial edict was read. Under the leadership of Liu Yi and Liu Yu, the ministers were about to kowtow and thank you. Sima Dewen, who was sitting high, suddenly spoke.

"Aiqing, is there a person missing from the edict?"

The waiter was not only responsible for reading the edict. Hearing what the emperor said, he couldn't help but be shocked. He quickly opened the edict in his hand and read it carefully. After confirming that he had read one person, he shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I have read it all."

Sima Dewen also shook his head and said, "No, there must be one person missing. I remember that when I was trapped by the thief, it was Lu Aiqing who saved me regardless of life and death. How can such a person who has great kindness to me not be rewarded? Forget it, don't draft any edicts. I will announce the reward for him now."

Liu Yi and Liu Yu couldn't help looking at each other. In fact, it was not that they forgot Lu Qiang, but deliberately did not add it. This boy is too unstoppable and must be removed as soon as possible.

When they thought about it, Lu Qiang saved the king of Langya and made great contributions to the court. The court will definitely reward him heavily, but now that the court does not reward him, will he be resentful and even rebel?

And even if Lu Qiang did not rebel, when the court stopped a little, they would give him a charge of rebellion and then start a crusade.

This strategy is not poisonous, but unfortunately they can't dream of Lu Qiang's true identity.

At this time, Sima Dewen's voice seemed to come from the sky: "The road was sealed as the governor of Jing and Jiang, and the three divisions of Kaifuyi, and the military of the five prefectures Jing, Jiang, Ning, Guangzhou and Jiao"

"Wang..."

As soon as Sima Dewen's voice fell, the golden hall seemed to be bombed. This decree undoubtedly came with a sudden muffled thunder, which made the officials dizzy.

"Who is this boy? Why haven't you heard of it before? Why did he get such a big reward..."

"Didn't you hear your majesty say that the boy named Lu Qiang saved the driver?"

"You can't save the world even if you save the car! Don't let us old ministers live..."

All kinds of voices buzzed in the Golden Hall like flies, and only the high Sima Dewen sat there with a sneer on his face without saying a word.

Liu Yi shouted, "Quiet, what kind of style is it to be so noisy on the Golden Hall?"

After saying that, he bowed to Sima Dewen and said, "Your Majesty's will is really debatable. The old minister knows that Lu Qiang's person. He may have some credit for saying that he is, but he is young and impetuous, and it is not enough to bear this great responsibility at all. Please keep your order and wait for the minister to discuss it, and then give another reward."

As soon as Liu Yi's words fell, the ministers seemed to discuss and said together, "Your Majesty, please take back your order"

Sima Dewen stood up slowly and said with a blank face, "Are you the emperor or am I the emperor? My words are the imperial edict. Do you want to be the traitors who disobey the decree?

Sima Dewen's words are too heavy. Although everyone knows that the emperor is a decoration, they know that if anyone really dares to disobey the emperor in front of him, he will be labeled as a slang minister.

With Sima Dewen's words, the ministers couldn't help kneeling down and said, "I dare not wait"

Liu Yu is also like the first time he met Sima Dewen, saying that this boy is good enough to pretend? When I was in the military camp, I lowered my eyebrows and was honest. What did I say? Why did it change as soon as I sat in that position? Aren't you afraid that I can lift you up and pull you down?

Sima Dewen didn't even look at Liu Yu, and the happiness in his heart was indescribable. He knew that if his royal brother was outside, he would have the confidence to shout to these chaotic ministers?

At this time, Liu Yu and Liu Yi had some understanding in their hearts. It was estimated that the emperor was going to cultivate a force outside to compete with them, the bigwigs in the court.

Humph! Isn't it too easy to think?

Before Liu Yu could speak, Sima Dewen opened his mouth again.

"I have made up my mind. You don't need to say much. I have to pass on my will to Jiangling immediately."

Sima Dewen said, and didn't wait for the reaction of the ministers. He fell his sleeves, turned around and strode away, leaving, leaving the civil and military ministers on the Golden Hall.

"Hum..."

The civil and military officials were in chaos again. In their memory, the emperor had never been so tough.

Liu Yi looked at Liu Yu and said, "The will must not be issued." In fact, he still has nothing to say, that is, what kind of emperor you choose? Not much yet! It began to be disobedient.

Liu Yu also has a gloomy face. Of course, he understands what Liu Yi means, but now, what's the use of saying that? He also knew that he could not give this official position to Lu Qiang, but the emperor had already said that the news would definitely spread. Unless the emperor himself takes back the will, the news of their resistance will also spread. Then he will also become Huan Xuan? Although he also wants to do that, it's not the right time.

Liu Yu's chief think tank Liu Muzhi is not here, so he didn't come up with any good ideas for a while. He simply stopped talking. He learned from Sima Dewen's appearance, shook his sleeves and strode away.
