The Great Queen Mau Lewat
Chapter 149
Rumors of sima rui rebels spread rapidly, like a flame that burns whatever it passes through. The heat and the burning, that is the reaction given the people of Jin who heard the rumors. Some believed the rumors but more did not believe them.
" How could the first prince do that? He himself is the one who protects this country from invaders. "
" right. Even if he wants the throne, I think that's a natural thing considering his contribution to the kingdom. Very different from the crown prince. "
" But still, there will be no smoke if there is no fire. I mean it's possible that the first prince would have deliberately presented himself in order to gain support for him to gain the throne. "
" Hey, stop your bullshit. You must be one of the crown prince's supporters right? "
And fights happen. Some people seem to support the crown prince, but in reality. They were just mercenaries of the queen mother in charge of making the situation even hotter.
The chaotic state of the capital finally came to sima rui. Sima rui's subordinates feel that it is important and must report it immediately. So they sent a message and told me what happened.
" Is the situation getting worse? " Tanya ziyan's. A little bit he had heard what was happening.
Sima rui cleared his throat. " It seems that all of this is someone's plan to dispel our arrival. "
" Do you also think this is the queen's plan? " guess ziyan.
" Only he can think of this plan. Using people as a shield. He knew very well that the soldiers would not dare to attack the people. "
" And what are you going to do? "
" Sometimes being weak and downtrodden is pretty good too. " Sima rui said with one corner of her raised lip.
' Ah right too. This guy has a lot of sense. ' Ziyan monologue. He understands Sima Rui's mind. That's why he knows what he's planning.
************
The Jin soldiers finally arrived at the capital. But the arrival of those who should be warmly welcomed actually get a complicated gaze from the people. Some looked at him with frightened eyes, others looked at him with scornful looks.
They thought that a rebellion was imminent. So some of the people with makeshift weapons confronted them.
" You're going to revolt, aren't you? Do you want to make the people suffer with the usurpation of the throne? " Say one of the people holding a ground fork.
Those who get in the way don't want the fate of their capital screwed up. If until the rebellion occurs then it is in sure the balance of government will also be affected. And then, it will affect their economic condition.
As soon as the man finished speaking, the dispelling men began to tighten up his lines. Making a blockade line.
Sima rui advanced on his horse. Staring one by one the Jin people who were blocking them. He jumped down and walked closer.
" We did not come to rebel. Have you forgotten about them. The soldiers who for years guarded the border, protected you. " Sima rui stared at the line of soldiers behind him, then turned back to staring at the people in front of him. " But when they returned to let go of their homesickness. What they got was this. Not a warm welcome or a thank you for their hard work. " Sima rui disappointed. Although his face was flat, but the look in his eyes revealed a sense of disappointment.
" If you still don't believe. Then you can follow us all the way to the palace. We promise there will be no rebellion. " Tawar Sima rui's.
The people who made the blockade looked at each other. They doubt it should not be like this. Shouldn't they get physical violence so they can sue and take down the first prince. That's what people pay for them. But the humble attitude of Sima rui even makes those who now look like bad people.
Siam Rui walked over to the man. Although his face was flat, but the sharp eyes of Sima rui could make anyone shudder in horror.
" You all heard! " sima rui said loudly while spreading his gaze to the people who had been watching. " Be a witness. Come to the palace with them. I'll show you that there are no rebels. "
After saying that Sima rui rushed on his horse back. He could still see the doubts of some of his people. He jerked his horse. He must finish his play immediately.
Ziyan watched Sima rui from quite a distance away. He decided to secretly return to Mo's residence. He should see his family first.
" Come xiaoqi. " Excited ziyan and was directly followed by xiaoqi.
Sima rui and ziyan had indeed agreed to return separately. This will make them free to move. They were sure, there was something they could use to bring down the queen mother.
************
" Your highness, the first prince has already entered the capital. " Report the eunuch to the queen mother.
The queen mother got up from her seat of greatness, then walked out. " Let's welcome the first prince. "
The eunuch serving him followed from behind. The moment they came out, the queen mother frowned at seeing something different.
" Are the soldiers standing guard here in change? " ask the queen mother.
" Right Your Majesty. They do have a rotating rotation. Do you feel uncomfortable with that, Your Majesty? "
The queen mother did not immediately answer, she actually stared fixedly at the two soldiers who were not far from her.
" Your highness.. " Call the eunuch who successfully distracts the queen mother.
" Let's walk. " The Queen mother walked back to welcome Sima rui's arrival.
While the two soldiers who had been in the face of the queen mother breathed a sigh of relief. It was as if she had just been freed from the sight of a lioness.
Just as the queen mother arrived at the palace gate. Sima rui was arguing with the gatekeeper for forbidding him from entering the palace.
" Sassy! how dare you stop me from entering the palace. " Hardik Sima rui. Even the guards dared to point their spears at the man who was the oldest prince of Jin kingdom.
" I'm sorry prince, but we're just following orders from Her Majesty's queen mother? " Obviously one of the guards.
Sima rui tightened his jaw, his face growing darker with protruding veins of anger on his clenched palms.
The queen mother who saw Sima rui's reaction smiled in satisfaction. " Prince! Don't blame the soldier. All at my command. Your arrival that brought hundreds of soldiers gave rise to the alleged rebellion. So in anticipation, I forbid you from entering the palace. You're allowed in if you're willing to take off your armor and hand over the weapons and military tokens in your hands. Hows it? " Say the Queen Mother from the top of the gate.
Sima rui looked at the queen mother from below. Not at all surprised by what he just heard. He could see the woman's scheming. To strip a soldier of armor and weapons is to strip him of his armor. Therefore all the soldiers who heard the words of the queen mother could not hide her surprise.
They all knelt down to beg the queen mother to revoke her decree.
