Chapter 230 On King Yan

The disadvantage now is that Sima Ji's fining country is located on the border and cannot do his best like the fining country in the Central Plains. In order to solve this, foreign troubles must be weakened as much as possible. Those that can be eliminated must be eliminated. Those that cannot be eliminated for the time being will be pulled into the meat grinder of the Eight Kings Rebellion. Since both the Hu people outside the Frontier and the gentry in China want to fight for a future, then we will go to the battlefield to practice, and the winner will be the one who stays.

The strongest Duan Xianbei among the six Xianbei tribes in history was exhausted during the Eight Kings Rebellion. When the major army and towns were fighting, tens of thousands of people would not be unimaginable.

Sima Ji still made up his mind to occupy the place first. If there is a place and there is a population, it is more useful when the center collapses than when it is in Luoyang's Palm.

"Your Highness, are you going back to the royal palace?" The driver who was driving the car spoke and pulled Sima Ji out of his speculation.

"No, go to Shi Chong's mansion!" Sima Ji raised his head and ordered calmly, leaving the inner palace, turning around to Shi Chong's mansion.

Since the last time he met Shi Chong who killed his concubine, Sima Ji couldn't stand it, but he finally got up. In fact, this kind of thing should be common, but Shi Chong did it too openly. This is not a problem with Shi Chong himself, but a problem among the gentry class of the Jin Dynasty, and it may even happen every day.

After arriving at Shi Chong's mansion, Shi Chong was about to go out, but unexpectedly, Sima Ji came to Luoyang and quickly made up a smile and said, "His Royal Highness Yan has come to the capital again. Is it not appropriate for his beautiful wife and concubines at home? Do you want Shi Chong to give you some? The refugees in Guanzhong have risen, and Shi Chong has also attracted some people who cannot survive."

How shameless is this conversation? Is it equivalent to making money from the national crisis? The refugees in Guanzhong started, and you took the opportunity to buy the population at the lowest price. Don’t talk about the matter right or wrong, and you are embarrassed to say it openly?

"No need, I already know the beauty of the general's mansion." Sima Ji, who was tacitly aware of the fact that he was a second-hand dealer, had already found Shi Chong's concubine to his next home.

It is better not to let Shi Chong know about this. Although the great families regard women as items, it depends on who uses this item. If the King of Yan enjoyed it himself, Shi Chong might not say anything. If he knew that Sima Ji married those concubines to lieutenant generals who were born in civilians, he might think that the other party looked down on him.

This kind of psychology is not difficult to understand when Sima Ji puts himself in his shoes. Everything is important.

Shi Chong was obviously not troubled by the last time that the King of Yan won the concubine away, so he directly reached out and invited Sima Ji out of the city. "Your Highness, the King of Yan, the Jingu Garden is about to be completed. If Your Highness comes again next year, I believe you will be shocked."

"The expansion of Jicheng in my king is almost completed, but unfortunately the general doesn't seem to go to Youzhou often." Sima Ji also spoke calmly, but his expression was calm, as if he was telling the truth. It didn't seem that it was the fact.

The two looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter. At this time, the carriage had just arrived at the city gate. The laughter of the two men aroused the sergeants' eyes, "Brother, who are the two of them just now?"

"One is General Yingyang Shi Chong, and the other is King Yan, don't ask too much." The sergeant, known as his elder brother, waved his hands. The friendship between the gentry was not something that soldiers like them could ask about. As long as they didn't see it, they watched the carriage leave, they couldn't help but feel envy in their eyes. As for whether there was a feeling of a prince, prince, general and minister, it was unknown.

As Shi Chong said, most of the Jingu Garden has been renovated and can be completed only next year. Even now, it has begun to take shape. The mountain stream stone pavilion flows with the waves, and the autumn leaves are chaotic, like a fairyland. The valleys are filled with smoke, and some craftsmen are still working overtime, and the sound of gold and stone is heard.

"When the Jingu Garden is repaired, Shi Chong may not be willing to live in the mansion in the city anymore, but there is still an artistic conception here!" Shi Chong shook his long sleeves and said with great enthusiasm, "When the time comes, there will be literary and famous scholars gathered here, and the beautiful articles will be passed down through the future generations."

After being infatuated for thousands of years, Sima Ji rolled his eyes secretly. To be fair, the literary talent of the twenty-four friends in Jingu is not inferior to any dynasty, but at this level of articles, it still has not changed people's cognition bad impressions.

"I went out of the inner palace today and happened to see King Zhao entering the palace." Sima Ji reached out to drive away the flying insects nearby and said calmly, "The King Zhao is old and still working hard for the country, which is admirable."

Puchi! Shi Chong couldn't help laughing and said vaguely, "That's true. If you want to say that you have to work hard, I believe that no one in the royal family is more suitable than King Zhao, so you will be short of entering the palace every day, haha!"

If you know that the person you laughed at would kill you in the future, can you still laugh? Sima Ji looked at Shi Chong who was dancing with his hands. At this time, he wanted to laugh out loud than Shi Chong. Is Shi Chong's final outcome retribution?

Shi Chong is also arrogant. Although Sima Lun is extremely mediocre, how can Sima family have the best light?

"I don't want to have any connection with King Zhao, but I just care about making money. Our lives need wealth to maintain, right? Jicheng City requires money to build money, and Great Wall repair requires money. I believe that only the general of the King can understand the difficulties in the entire Jin Dynasty." Sima Ji's face turned solemn, "I need to add money to everything these days."

"The King of Yan is frugal!" Shi Chong teased, knowing that the other party was guiding him. He was ready to walk and chat while walking. Some important buildings in Jingu Garden have been completed, and even many servants in the mansion are always here, so naturally there is no shortage of rest.

After the casino opened, business continued. As Sima Ji said, as long as there were people in the court, it was easy to do things. There were Jia Yi, Shi Chong, and even some well-informed people, there were also royal family members involved. There were naturally no problems on the official side. If there were any problems, there were problems with other competitors. Soon, they achieved the only result of being the only one under the feet of the emperor.

"King Yan, each of you and I can earn one million yuan a month. This is not a decimal. It has not been a long time since the opening of the business." Shi Chong lowered his voice, "In fact, many gentry disciples have not yet moved closer to us, otherwise the number would have risen."

Oh? Sima Ji looked clear and could not let Shi Chong see the shock in his heart. Sure enough, the emperor was still much richer than his banished state. I remember that he paid the money for exemption from labor service last time, but he only collected more than 100,000 yuan. The capital was just one million a month ago. You must know that this was just Sima Ji's share, Shi Chong's own, and maybe even Jia Yi's, the number is definitely not small.

After sighing at the evil gap between the rich and the poor, the King of Yan was balanced. For a prince, money is not the most important, food is the most important, and population is the most important. He was not very open-minded and believed that money is something outside of his body, but this is the current environment, materials are more important than money.

"With a financial expert like a general, I will have no worries." Sima Ji raised his glass and drank it all, not ashamed of his feudal lord's behavior of eating human blood buns. He was just adapting to this era.

Of course, the King of Yan has the responsibility to save all people from water and fire, but this premise is to save himself first, so it is completely understandable that the people's small sacrifices are currently.

Until nightfall, Sima Ji wanted to leave, Shi Chong tried to stay in Jingu Garden on the grounds that he was late at night.

In the Zhao Palace, Sima Lun looked back and forth with resentment. He had been approaching Jia Nanfeng for a long time. After returning from Junzhen, he made arrangements and handed over court officials to go further. However, the effect is limited now, which is hated.

"The hen is in charge of the morning, and it will harm the country and the people." Sima Lun muttered fiercely. He only dared to say this in the inner room of his mansion that he would never dare to do it on another occasion.

At this time, Sima Lun was completely different from the King Zhao who laughed in front of Jia Nanfeng. Although Sima Lun had not personally participated in the specific steps of the Sima family seizing power, he still had a basic sense of observing words and expressions.

"Don't be impatient, if a little impatience is a mess, you will make a big plan. There are definitely not one or two dissatisfied kings and princes in the royal family. The king just waits for the opportunity!" Seeing this, Sun Xiu quickly signaled the ban and looked around carefully, "Now the Jia family is powerful, and there is no respected leader in the royal family, so he can only endure it for the time being."

"Sir, right." Sima Lun sighed deeply, patted Sun Xiu's shoulder and said, "Only Mr. Wang talked about my heart. The royal family is full of rats and dogs. King Runan is cowardly, King Chu is reckless, and King Qin is a prison. As for other kings and princes, they either have no ambitions or have already bowed their heads. I am just strongly determined to turn the tide, but I can't do anything. If my brother is still there, how can I get Jia Nanfeng to interfere with the politics?"

Sima Lun felt deeply moved, feeling that he was born at the wrong time, and even the talented people in the gentry were unwilling to do so. Now, only Sun Xiu can give advice. Fortunately, Sun Xiu is loyal and able to give advice for himself.

"What do the king thinks of King Yan?" Sun Xiuyi asked when he thought of the scene of meeting Sima Ji during the day.

"The son of King Yan Huang's mouth is just a father's family, and he is more than his top, and he cannot do anything." Sima Lun made a decisive conclusion, "Now he is just valued by the queen, and he is actually a villain."

"What the king said is! After all, there are not many people in the royal family who can have such a mind as a king. Now we still have to wait and find opportunities." Sun Xiu was worthy of Sima Lun's attention. Although he felt that things should not be like this, he still gave his boss a affirmation as soon as possible.
