Chapter 74: King Yan's Memorial

"What does this mean? Why tell me the news of the withdrawal of the Southern Expedition?" Although Youzhou is located in a remote location, it is not a long time for Luoyang to report the news with the official road of the fast horse. It only took a few days before Sima Ji learned about the birth of the court. In just a moment, he felt like he was being used.

I am always stationed in Youzhou and didn’t look at Luoyang, but I can still be missed. Who is thinking about me? Sima Ji passed the royal family in Luoyang now. From the beginning, Sima Yi had nine sons. In addition to the eldest son, Emperor Jing, Sima Shi, and the second son, Emperor Wen, Sima Zhao, the most talented one is the fifth king of Langya, Sima Yi, who was later Sima Rui’s grandfather, and the second son, Emperor Fufeng, Sima Jun. These four capable sons are short-lived.

The five living people are Sima Gan, the King of Pingyuan. This one is excluded first. This guy is mentally ill. He is not Sima Yan's son, so he naturally does not have the treatment of Sima Zhong and has never participated in the government affairs. King of Liang, Sima Tong, was disrespectful to his old age, and caused a rebellion in Guanzhong.

King Sima Lun of Zhao, it would be great if he was as powerful as the military advisors alliance. As for King Sima Liang of Runan, Sima Liang, who has been military so far, has never won a battle. Even when Sima Zhao was alive, he lost the battle with him!

I passed all the royal families of Sima Shi's generation, and it seemed that everyone who lived was full of wine and food, not like someone who could remember him.

Those of the Eight Kings Rebellion? The King of Chu is not like a scheming person. The one who is the most scheming is Sima Yue. However, Sima Yue should have a very low status now and has not even been named a king.

"It's him, wait for me! How dare you plot against me!" Sima Ji thought for a long time, and felt that he had pushed out the right conspirator. He couldn't help but grit his teeth at Sima Yue. Now he had already brought enough hatred in front of Yang Jun, but he was still thinking about it.

Sima Ji, who was gritting his teeth at a piece of paper, happened to be caught by Qiaoxi who came in. He felt it interesting and could not help but cover his mouth and chuckled, "What's wrong with your highness? Why do you do such a strange thing about a piece of paper?"

"Someone is calculating me! But I still have to be calculating myself willingly." Sima Ji took several deep breaths in succession, "I know my relationship with Yang now, so I pushed me out again at this time."

"Then just treat it as if you don't know!" Qiaoxi said in surprise, "Is there anyone who forces His Highness to speak?"

"It is related to the result of the Southern Expedition Army. If I don't speak out, this Southern Expedition may really be without results!" Sima Ji shook his head. Now he was very strange. His reputation is so bad now. Who can tell that the King of Yan has a conscience towards the court? How can he be sure that he will submit a memorial to oppose the withdrawal of the army?

In Luoyang City, Yong'anli, willows move with the wind. As for the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty, it is always so peaceful. A pair of young men with similar looks have long sleeves, but their expressions are different.

Sima Wei finally couldn't help but say, "It's been several days. Normally, the news has arrived in Youzhou. Will the King of Yan really submit a memorial to oppose the withdrawal of troops? His fief is in Youzhou, and it has nothing to do with it no matter how you look at it."

"Brother is a little impatient!" Sima Yi said to be calm and pondered for a moment, "Telling this news to the King of Yan is not that the King of Yan will definitely oppose the withdrawal of the Southern Expedition army. But he has to oppose it."

"I hope to hear it carefully!" Sima Wei spoke. He also knew that he was not as good as his brother in strategy, so even if most people dared not speak in front of him, he always cared for Sima Yi and never blamed him.

Sima Yi picked up a stone and threw it into the pond, and said, "The King of Yan is a royal family. He saw one thing from the beginning, that is, Yang Jun is currently in charge of the government affairs, not other things. The King of Yan is a title, and the General of Zhendong is military power. But the King of Yan is not a local governor, and Yang Jun actually has no choice. Now the King of Yan knows the dissatisfaction with the Yang family in the entire court, and of course our royal family will also think about what the majority of the royal family is about whether to withdraw troops from the Southern Expedition. Once he figures out, he will submit a memorial to oppose the army of the Southern Expedition."

"On the contrary, in Luoyang, we, the royal families who are permanently stationed in Luoyang, are under the control of Yang Jun. So we can't speak out!" Sima Yi shrugged, "Brother, you really shouldn't have come to Luoyang. If you have the chance, I want to go back to the bribery, so that you and I can take care of the bribery."

The royal family accidentally lost the power center of Luoyang, but the matter is not over yet. Most of the other royal members of Luoyang hold idle positions such as the Sanqi Changshou. Of course, they cannot be dissatisfied with Yang Jun.

However, thousands of miles away, there are still hundreds of thousands of troops practicing silently. The commanders of these troops are all named Sima. If Sima Ji was not one of them, Yang Jun could kill him with his hand.

Sima Yi concluded that within this time, once Sima Ji thought about it, as a member of the royal family, he would definitely understand what to do.

"The south conquer Linyi Kingdom, conquered 40,000 troops, and the south conquered the military of the two states, and conquered the military sources of the four states. Guangzhou built countless warships, and allocated countless money and grain during the period. After a small victory, he would have to return to the court. This southern conquer was thousands of miles away, and the soldiers went deep into Rinan County and suffered from the scorching heat and miasma. If this was the time to make the blood of the soldiers was wasted?"

"I said bluntly that there is no difference between this army and the defeat in the city signing alliance under the city. The Grand Marshal Yang Jun and the General Yang Yu of the South of the Conquest are to blame. They should submit a memorial to relieve their military power and return to their hometown to support their elderly care. Didn't Yang Yu have already proposed to return home during the late emperor's period? If His Majesty of the Ban Shi can immediately allow Yang Yu to return home."

Without Sima Yi's expectations, Sima Ji's memorial came from Youzhou to Luoyang within a few days. He stood politely at the position of the royal family and criticized Yang Jun's advocacy for returning to the court, believing that the Southern Expedition had consumed countless money and food and had to produce a result. It must not be done just because Linyi State promised not to plunder the border and then submitted a tribute to the tribute.

Regarding Yang Jun's suggestion that he wanted to return to the court, Sima Ji was still maliciously guessing in the memorial. Maybe Yang Yu, the general of the Southern Expedition, suffered a defeat, but he was defeated and Yan Sheng. He suggested that the court send people to Guangzhou immediately to investigate whether the Southern Expedition army really won the battle. If Yang Yu was not arrested immediately, he would be punished.
