My subjects are too rebellious!

The red walls and green tiles, the towering walls that block out the sun, the majestic palace is magnificent.

One after another, solemn palaces with brilliant golden roofs rise up, standing side by side, staggered in height, and lined up in rows, which attracts worship from afar.

The golden glazed tile double-eaved roof of the hall shines brightly in the sun, making people dizzy and unable to tell the east and west directions.

Looking at these magnificent palaces, Ji Tao sighed in her heart: This is the imperial palace, this is the palace that people talk about where one can enjoy all the glory and wealth, be high and mighty, and be insolent.

Wu Zetian was also standing beside Ji Tao, looking at her appearance. How could she not know what she was thinking?

"My sister likes the scenery inside the palace."

"Of course I like it."

Ji Tao felt a little embarrassed. She was afraid of bringing shame to Han Xin, so she became more cautious.

Wu Zetian was such a smart woman. She knew why Qin Chuan brought this couple here, which was naturally to win over Han Xin.

Although Wu Zetian did not think Han Xin had any special qualities, she believed in Qin Chuan's vision.

She believed that Qin Chuan could recognize talent.

So, she knew how to build a closer relationship with Ji Tao. After all, this would be pillow talk in the future.

"You don't have to be so reserved between me and my sister. If you do, then you're not treating me as your sister."

How dare Ji Tao, she said hurriedly: "No, the Queen Mother treats me as a sister, I am naturally happy, but..."

"But I am illiterate and I am afraid that if I talk too much, my sister will laugh at me."

Wu Zetian didn't care and pulled Ji Tao, saying kindly: "Sister, it's too formal for you to say these things. Your husband will be with His Majesty in the future, and he is destined to enjoy wealth and glory."

"Besides, who dares to laugh at my sister when I'm here?"

Ji Tao felt a little embarrassed and quickly thanked her, "Thank you, sister."

"There is no need to be so polite between you and me."

"Come on, I'll take you to the Imperial Garden."

"It's all up to my sister's arrangement."

...

"This house will be yours from now on."

Han Xin was a little overwhelmed, not daring to accept or refuse.

Looking at Han Xin's appearance, Qin Chuan felt a little unhappy.

"Why, you don't want what I gave you?"

Han Xin was a straightforward person. He thought that the emperor was really angry, so he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please don't be angry. I want it."

"That's right."

Seeing Han Xin agree, Qin Chuan's expression immediately changed and he started laughing.

But Han Xin said apprehensively: "Your Majesty, I really feel unworthy of this house."

"I have just become your Majesty's disciple and have not yet made any achievements..."

Before Han Xin could finish, Qin Chuan interrupted him and said, "Don't worry, there are still a lot of things waiting for you to do in the future."

"This house is a gift from me as your eldest brother to you and Ji Tao as your wedding house."

Thinking of something, Qin Chuan instructed Zhang Rang, "Go and arrange for some servants to come over later. Arrange more of them. Otherwise, such a large house will seem too deserted."

"Yes, this slave accepts the order."

Han Xin frowned and said with some embarrassment: "Brother, we don't need servants."

"No need? Then who will take care of this house on weekdays? Who will do the cleaning? You can't let Ji Tao do it alone."

Han Xin's thoughts were different from Qin Chuan's. He lowered his head slightly and whispered, "Brother, I don't have any money."

Qin Chuan pointed at Han Xin with a smile and said, "You, you, don't worry about this."

"Okay, I'm ready to go. I'll send someone to pick you up in the evening. Have dinner with me tonight."

"Brother, walk slowly."

Looking at Qin Chuan's back, Han Xin turned around and looked at the house again.

It all seemed like a dream, making him feel a little unreal.

He slapped himself twice.

"hiss."

"This is not a dream!"

Reaching out and touching the various weapons on the martial arts field, the desire to dominate the world in his heart became active again.

...

After leaving the General's Mansion, Zhang Rang asked, "Your Majesty, shall we go back to the palace directly?"

Qin Chuan thought for a moment, then said, "Where is Sima Yi now?"

This question was obviously not directed at Zhang Rang, so Zhang Rang did not respond.

And in an inconspicuous shadowy place nearby, a figure slowly appeared.

He knelt on one knee in front of Qin Chuan and said, "Your Majesty, Sima Yi is currently in the palace, planning to feign illness and resign, begging for his remains."

"Ah."

After seeing Qin Chuan nod, Long Liu hid in the darkness again.

"Let's go and see what disease my teacher has."

Zhang Rang was becoming more and more savvy now, so he naturally understood what His Majesty meant, and hurriedly helped Qin Chuan get on the carriage.

Then he drove the carriage to Sima Yi's house.

At this moment, Sima Yi was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and his face and lips were deliberately painted pale.

There was a folded white cloth on his forehead, and Sima Zhao and Sima Shi were kneeling beside him with sad faces.

Just then, the doorman came to report.

"Sir, His Majesty is here."

The doorman had just finished reporting, and before the three members of the Sima family could react, Qin Chuan's voice was heard outside the door.

"Teacher Sima, what happened? Is his life coming to an end or has he passed away?"

These words were extremely unpleasant to hear, and Sima Shi's expression changed, but he did not dare to get angry.

Seeing Sima Yi not moving, Qin Chuan continued, "Zhang Rang, go and take a look. If Teacher Sima is dying, take him to the palace to find the imperial physician."

"If he really can't make it, I will take care of his affairs after his death."

Sima Yi, who had originally planned to continue pretending, began to cough rapidly after hearing this.

He knew that if he continued to pretend, this day next year would probably be the anniversary of his death.

Now, he has no doubt that His Majesty is a man of his word.

Qin Chuan stared at the loyalty level of 40 above Sima Yi's head and laughed.

"Your Majesty, I am fine, but my body is not strong enough to serve the court any longer."

"I beg Your Majesty to let me retire and return home."

Sima Yi was retreating to advance, but Qin Chuan's answer was beyond his expectations.

"I approve it, Zhang Rang, do it immediately."

This answer made the three Sima people all confused.

Looking at their expressions, Qin Chuan found it very interesting.

Then, he approached Sima Yi and asked, "Sima Yi, I want to ask you a question. Please answer truthfully."

Sima Yi dared not hesitate, and immediately knelt on the bed and asked respectfully: "Your Majesty, please ask, I will tell you everything I know."

"it is good!"

"Then I ask you, have you left the city today?"

Sima Shi and Sima Zhao on the side were suddenly shocked. They thought they had done it perfectly, but they never expected it.

My every move is actually under the eyes of His Majesty.

Sima Yi was also a little panicked, but he still said firmly: "This old minister is seriously ill at home today and has not stepped out of the house."
