Fish swimming around the world

Sima Chen extremely suspected that the empress could not sit still and was preparing to go fishing. Haven’t you seen Qin’s soldiers and horses practicing frequently recently? Especially the troops on the eastern and southern fronts are constantly increasing. What is this for?

However, Xiaoyao Wang doesn't seem to know that he is the target of countless people in the world. There are a lot of fearless people ready to kill him at any time.

Therefore, the unlucky King Jin could not do anything but act as a bodyguard for him.

This is called a depression!

He wanted to shout: Please don't come over -!

But contrary to expectations, this guy finally entered the territory of Jin State, and observing his route, it was obvious that this was the final goal.

Congested.

What do you think you are doing here in Jin?

Visiting the wise? What kind of person are you visiting? Does the great sage of Jin have anything to do with you?

But at this time, the palace guards came to report, and there was the latest news. King Xiaoyao claimed that the person he was visiting this time was an old man in the literary world - Mr. Wen Shengyan.

Mr. Yan? The king of Jin Dynasty was confused. The Master was called the Beidou of Wenzong in the world. In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he was the leader of the literary world. He was the nominal master of the king. Even most of the officials in the court were his late-born descendants in terms of seniority. He had great influence. .

But I’ve never heard of Master Yan having anything to do with you. They’re more than eighty years apart, okay?

He quickly sent someone to find out the news from Master Yan, and the reply he got was that Master Yan had received a letter from King Xiaoyao, saying that he would be friends with letters.

This is not easy to handle. The literary world in the Eastern Jin Dynasty was prosperous, and it has always been about making friends through literature, and it does not distinguish between national boundaries. Even if they are hostile countries, they will not hinder such elegant things and will treat them with courtesy. This kind of style was once something that Jin people were proud of.

Now that King Xiaoyao has come under this banner, no one can say anything, and even though the old master is very senior, he also has the title of Poet Immortal and Ci Sage, and even has the status of King of One Word, and his status is not inferior.

The most bizarre thing is that they don’t bring any soldiers, not even any followers, and they visit the virtuous privately. If you do something useless in the Jin Kingdom, you will be inferior. This is not good for the Jin people who are good-looking and have good character. Speaking of which, it will look very unsightly on the face.

Very good, now I can't even say that it's inconvenient to receive due to the civil war.

Just when he was anxious, someone asked to see him.

When King Jin saw this person, he immediately let out a sigh of relief.

What came was a tall and thin old man, dressed in gray robes, with his gray hair carefully combed. He was none other than Deng Yan, Duke Baishi of the Jin Kingdom.

"National Master, you are finally here."

King Jin quickly picked up his robe and went to greet him.

"National Master, you came just in time. I believe you have also heard about King Xiaoyao. Please quickly find a way to solve this problem for me."

Deng Yan smiled slightly: "I heard about this incident and thought that the king was in trouble, so I came here to share the worries with the king."

The King of Jin said: "Not long after, the Monster Killing Conference will be held at Dafo Mountain. Countless Jianghu people will take action against King Xiaoyao. Now that he has come to our Kingdom of Jin, isn't this going to cause trouble for this King? I am worried about it."

Deng Yandao: "That's right. Although the Demon-Slaying Conference seems to be initiated by the three major sects, in fact it is Taihua and Taiyue behind it, so there are naturally many responders. Unfortunately, King Xiaoyao seems to be ignorant of life and death. He is not huddled in Yangdu at this time. Instead, he went through the market and came to Jin alone, which really caused a big problem for the king. "

The King of Jin said sarcastically: "Who says otherwise? At this juncture, he must not cause trouble in the Jin Kingdom. Otherwise, wouldn't he give the empress an excuse?"

Deng Yan shook his head slightly: "Your Majesty, this matter is extraordinary. Have you ever considered why he chose to come to Jin alone at this time?"

This is indeed a key issue. Only by understanding this can we prescribe the right medicine.

King Jin frowned and said, "I just don't know. I am puzzled. Please help me clear up my confusion quickly."

Deng Yan said: "First, as the king said, the world is targeting him at this time. Generally speaking, it is safer to stay in Qin State, so it is not ruled out that the empress will let him look for opportunities to make excuses. But the abnormality is that this person is traveling alone, No matter how you look at it, you can’t put yourself in such a dangerous situation.”

King Jin was convinced: "Yes, even if I make this plan, I will bring thousands of guards with me. What if something happens to me?"

Deng Yan couldn't help but shake his head secretly after hearing this. The King of Jin was known to the world to be cowardly, and from this point of view there was no comparison with the enigmatic King Xiaoyao. I'm afraid people dared to act like this because they saw this clearly.

Secondly, this person claimed to use literature to make friends and visit Master Yan, a famous figure in the literary world, the king. This is intriguing. "

The King of Jin hurriedly asked: "Is there some conspiracy involved? I would like to ask the National Master to clarify."

Deng Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, think about it, what are the major events in our Kingdom of Jin recently?"

King Jin frowned: "Of course it's peace talks..."

"What else?"

King Jin thought for a while and said, "Then the only thing left is to establish a prince."

Deng Yan nodded: "Excuse me, my dear friend, the defeat in this war caused chaos in the country and a lot of criticism of the king. Therefore, the king tried to divert attention by establishing the crown prince. Admittedly, the effect was excellent. In order to compete for the crown prince's position , the civil and military officials in the court who supported the two princes once again paid attention to the king, and their authority was restored. This incident also had adverse consequences, which really caused the factions of the two princes to become tit for tat. "

The King of Jin said angrily: "If I hadn't been coerced by the Xia Kingdom, why would I have done this? It was all out of necessity."

Deng Yan said: "The sacrifice in the ancestral temple is approaching, and the dispute between the two princes has reached a point where it has to be ended. But does the king know who Master Yan likes?"

The King of Jin thought for a while and said: "Master Yan is a leading figure in the literary world. He always attaches great importance to etiquette and believes that there is order between elders and young ones. Jing'er should be recognized..."

Deng Yan said: "Yes, Master Jing is the eldest son of the king. As a Confucian master, Master Yan follows the order of seniority and should naturally agree with him. But the king should also know Jing'er's attitude towards Qin."

King Jin frowned: "Jing'er hates Qin."

Deng Yan nodded: "Yes. In the past, when the four countries attacked Qin, Jing'er led the troops and fought against Qin. He ambushed and killed 8,000 Qin soldiers and even destroyed Gao Rong's appearance, forging a deep hatred. But now the king and Master Yan both want Master Jing to be the crown prince, Qin must be unhappy."

King Jin said with a look of surprise: "The national teacher said that this King Xiaoyao came here to destroy the matter of establishing a crown prince?"

Deng Yan said slowly: " I am not sure, but his visit to Master Yan makes people think about this. "

The King of Jin said: "Master Yan's opinion on the matter of establishing the crown prince is crucial, but Master Yan is a Jin person after all. Can he be persuaded to change his ways without following the etiquette?"

Deng Yan shook his head: "Although this may not be the case. But don't forget, Your Majesty, although Master Yan was born in Jin, he is the leader of the world's literary world and the leader of Confucianism. Even if he recognizes Master Jing from the perspective of etiquette, that's all, and he can't be said to support..."

The King of Jin was shocked: "So, Master Yan may still support Ji'er?"

Deng Yan sighed: "If the benefits are enough, why not?"
