Chapter 7784
7784 Chapter 7781-attacked at the border
“If cousin is willing, Ziyu will definitely accompany you!”
Liu Ziyu stood up and cupped his hands, full of respect for Lin Yi.
Those with discerning eyes knew why the king had summoned him. It was rare that cousin Zhong da had just returned to the capital, but he was not the least bit afraid!
On the other hand, Sima zhengxin was eating desserts in a good mood as Lin Yi and Lin Yi set off for the palace.
The two guys who had complained were sent to the side hall to wait, and then he sent someone to summon the people from the heavenly taste Pavilion to gather.
Although it was a fight between the younger generation, Sima zhengxin was not prepared to turn a big matter into a small one.
Lin Yi wanted to establish his authority, and Sima zhengxin understood that. This grandson’s style was to his liking, so he was going to use this to help Lin Yi!
As for the two kids, did they think they’d be able to get back at Lin Yi just by complaining?
Hehe, they were too naïve!
“Your Majesty, an urgent report from the border! The Army of selencopper Commandery from the northern border is invading!”
Sima zhengxin had just finished his dessert and was still holding the bowl in his hand when someone rushed in from outside the hall.
The man knelt on one knee and reported quickly,””Fire sickle city, flower curl city, and Fei Du city are all in a state of emergency. Traces of the enemy have been found. According to horse Scouts, seitong Commandery claimed to have 200000 troops, and they have divided their troops to plunder our borders!”
“What?”
Sima zhengxin was shocked and smashed the Jade bowl on the ground,””Are those damn selencopper Commandery people crazy? They’re actually attacking the border at this time?”
Hongshang Commandery and seitong Commandery had always been at odds with each other, and the war had never stopped.
However, it would usually happen during the autumn harvest, and the goal was clear-to plunder resources!
It was still early autumn, and the war would only cause destruction and not gain much.
Especially the number of troops on the other side, 200000!
This was no longer a war with the purpose of plundering. Instead, they wanted to take over the city and divide the territory of Hongshang Commandery. They even wanted to destroy Hongshang Commandery.
“Quickly gather all the princes and go to Qiushi Hall to discuss this matter!”
Sima zhengxin’s face was as calm as water, but he was not too anxious.
“Your Majesty, do we need to gather all the important officials in the hall to discuss the war with selencopper Commandery?”
An old eunuch standing beside Sima zhengxin said in a low voice,””Urgent reports from the border can not be hidden from the eyes and ears of those with intentions. If the palace does not react in time, I’m afraid it will be criticized!”
This was a close person who had accompanied Sima zhengxin since he was young. He would not interfere in military and political matters, but sometimes, this kind of check and supplement was what Sima zhengxin needed.
“That makes sense. Quickly gather the officials and wait in the main hall for a meeting!”
Sima zhengxin didn’t think much of it and immediately nodded,””My partner, go and keep an eye on them. Tell them not to panic. They claim to have 200000 soldiers, but in reality, they only have around 50000 to 60000 soldiers who can fight!”
“As the king commands!”
The old eunuch bowed and left, while Sima zhengxin stood up and walked towards the Qiushi Hall.
Before discussing with the officials, he had to first discuss with the Sima clan.
Sima zhengxin felt a headache just thinking about it. In the face of such a major emergency, he had to first get a unified opinion from the Sima clan.
Otherwise, if they went to the main hall to discuss it directly, it would be troublesome if there were differences in opinions within the Sima clan!
In the end, Hongshang Commandery was not always ruled by one family.
If the Sima clan did not do well, the Feng clan, the Nangong clan, and even the already declining heiye clan could all come out and ask to ascend the throne and rule the Hongshang Commandery!
It didn’t take long for the important members of the Sima clan to gather in the hall of autumn truth.
When Sima Zhongyi and Sima Zhongli saw this, they were secretly happy. They thought that they were all here to seek justice for them!
To be honest, they would never have expected such a big scene!
“Sima Zhong da, you’re finished! It doesn’t matter if you’re the real Sima Zhongda or not. You’re finished today, do you know that?”
Sima Zhongli’s Red and swollen face had slightly disappeared, and he could hear what he was saying now. He immediately jumped out when he saw Lin Yi and Liu Ziyu,”You beat up your own kind and harmed your brother. You won’t have a good life in the future with just these crimes!”
“That’s right! Today, in front of all the elders of the Sima clan, we must ask grandfather Wang to punish you severely …”
Sima Zhongyi also called out, but before he could finish his words, he was kicked by his father!
“Shut up! Go to the side!”
Si MA was mentally exhausted. How could he have such a stupid son?
Almost all of the important people in the Sima clan are here. Do you think it’s because of your little children’s fight?
What was he thinking?
This is a matter of life and death for Hongshang Commandery, and you’re still talking nonsense here!
My position as the Crown Prince will be ruined in your hands sooner or later!
“Third brother, take good care of your son. Otherwise, this King will personally discipline him for you next time!”
Sima You Yun stood up and glanced at Sima Zhongli and his father. His words were plain, but the killing intent hidden within was obvious.
I’ve finally found my son who has been lost for 20 years, and any Tom, Dick, and Harry dares to bully me?
Do you think that I, Sima Yunqi, can’t lift my saber?
… Although in reality, it was Lin Yi who bullied others, but from Sima Yunqi’s point of view, it was Lin Yi who was bullied!
“Yes, yes, yes. Second brother, please calm down. It’s your little brother’s fault for not being strict. I’ll definitely punish this scourge when I get home!”
Sima Zheng Xin’s third son, Sima Yun San, didn’t have the self-awareness of a Prince. He bowed to Sima Yun and respectfully saluted,””I promise there won’t be a next time. Otherwise, I’ll break this beast’s legs!”
Sima Zhongli was dumbfounded. No, didn’t you guys come to support us?
What was going on?
He didn’t even consider that his father was just a concubine’s son, an idle Prince. In terms of status, he was not even one-thousandth of Sima Yunqi and Sima Yunfei!
He didn’t have any power or influence in his hands, so how could he fight against si Ma Yun?
Sima Yun San had always maintained a neutral position on the surface, and did not participate in the fights between the eldest and second eldest. Only in the dark would he be in cahoots with Sima Yun Fei.
Who would’ve thought that Sima Zhongli’s foolish son would actually clash with the son that the second Prince had just found?
Are you looking for death?
If si MA really killed him, he would have nothing to say. He could only pretend that he never had this son!
“Be quiet!”
Sima zhengxin, who was sitting on it, shouted in a low voice,””Let’s cut to the chase. I’ve gathered you here, so some of you should know what’s going on! The seitong Commandery in the northern border is being attacked by an Army of Two hundred thousand soldiers. They are attacking fire sickle city, curl Flower City, and Fei Du city. The border is in a state of emergency. Tell me what to do!”
“Father, I think that there is something wrong with the troops of seitong Commandery. We can’t be careless!”
As the leader, Sima Yunfei spoke first,””In the past, the selencopper Commandery’s border battles were all in autumn, and the scale was usually a few thousand people.”
