Chapter 13 The first watershed in life is amniotic fluid

[The first watershed in life is amniotic fluid! ]

Everyone agrees that the kind of life a baby will live has already been determined when he is in his mother's womb.

Your Majesty's children will be born as dragon daughters and dragon sons.

Children born into aristocratic families are almost as precious as the sons and daughters of a dragon.

When an official's child is born, she is the official's daughter.

Children born to poor people are destined to live a hard life. Only a few of them who work almost desperately can change their family situation. Even so, their family wealth is far less than that accumulated by officials for generations.

Only if several consecutive generations can pass the imperial examinations can the family's status be truly changed. Otherwise, after one or two generations, it will return to its original state.

Sima Fen's family was different. Originally a noble family, but because someone in the great-grandmother's generation went astray, the relationship between Sima Shi and Sima Fen families was severed. However, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.

Sima Fen was only a sixth-rank civil servant on the surface, but the wealth accumulated in his family was not comparable to that of an ordinary sixth-rank official.

That's why Sima Zhaoyun felt depressed!

[I dare to conclude that Sima Zhaoyun's final end is extremely miserable! ]

He betrayed his mother's and father's families. Sima Shi was a traitor, but he was not stupid, so how could he dare to use him?

[Yes, host. After Sima Shi acquired the wealth of Sima Fen's lineage, he sent someone to sell Sima Zhaoyun to a low-class men's brothel, where he was made to entertain the lowest class of guests. He eventually contracted various venereal diseases and died of festering ulcers all over his body. Even wild dogs wouldn't eat his corpse!]

Everyone was sighing, after all the planning, the end result was just like that.

As for this person, the same thing still applies: you should know yourself.

[Hey, what's the point?! Some people are so stupid! If things were fine, given Sima Fen's personality, he'd probably find a good family and make him the househusband. If Sima Fen gets promoted, his life will only become freer! If you try to get the skin of a tiger, you'll only end up getting sucked dry and eaten by it!]

Although this is not the original timeline, Sima Fen knows that she will most likely do as Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess said.

Although the children were divided into legitimate and illegitimate, they all came out of her belly.

No one wanted them to live well more than she did.

When Sima Fen heard about Sima Zhaoyun's fate in the original timeline, he felt nothing.

Her entire family was killed by Sima Zhaoyun. If she still had any motherly feelings for Sima Zhaoyun, she would be too indecisive.

This is no longer just a matter of being soft-hearted.

Sima Fen thought that no matter what, she would definitely exterminate Sima Zhaoyun's clan. Even if the entire family had to be executed, she would never let Sima Zhaoyun die with them, so as not to pollute their place.

System 3657 deduced for a while before saying.

[Host, in the current timeline, according to my deduction, Sima Fen will probably become a third-rank minister, loyal to the emperor!]

Sima Fen's eyes widened. Her Sima family hadn't been confiscated and exterminated?!

[Huh? Where's Sima Zhaoyun? My mother will never show mercy when it comes to military pay!]

Jing Chengji: I'll just take it as a compliment!

All the civil and military officials in the court were in disbelief.

Sima Fen guessed that His Majesty was not without punishment for the Sima family, and no matter what the punishment was, it was deserved.

But she secretly made a decision in her heart that if she could go home this time, the first thing she would do was to expel Sima Zhaoyun from the clan, and the second thing would be to change her surname.

It is not enough to just sever ties. It would be best if in the future when the people of Jing mention the Sima family, they don’t know that both Sima Fen and Sima Shi’s descendants once had the surname Sima.

Sima Shi became anxious when he heard what the system said.

"Your Majesty, this is unfair, this is unfair, she Sima Fen..."

Seeing that Sima Shi was about to say something he shouldn't, Liu Miao grabbed General Wei's smelly socks and stuffed them back into Sima Shi's mouth with lightning speed.

All the officials gave Liu Miao affirmative looks on his actions.

Liu Miao bowed to Jing Chengji.

Jing Chengji was also generous in his praise.

"good."

Liu Miao was beaming and said modestly.

"It is my duty to share your majesty's worries."

Many low-ranking officials were secretly upset, wondering why Liu Miao got there first and registered in front of His Majesty.

Jingcheng Jidao.

"My dear ministers, what do you think should be done with Sima Fen?"

Sima Fen's heart was beating like a drum, but he remained silent, waiting for the final judgment.

Prime Minister Zhuge said.

"Your Majesty, I believe that only by managing one's family can one manage one's country. Sima Fen can't even manage his own family, let alone be a good official."

Sima Fen's heart sank when he heard this.

Prime Minister Zhuge is a close and trusted minister to Your Majesty and even to the State of Jing. Your Majesty will certainly value her opinions.

Sima's face turned bitter. Never mind. It was her fault. If she did something wrong, she should be punished. She was just thinking wrongly.

"But everyone makes mistakes. I think Sima Fen should be given a chance."

Zhuge Ming's words were like the sound of nature, and Sima Fen's heart was filled with emotion when he heard them.

The Grand Tutor bowed.

"Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate. The army is the foundation of our Jing State. If we embezzle military pay and let it go, others will inevitably follow suit, which will undermine the foundation of our Jing State."

The court immediately split into two groups, one group agreed with what Prime Minister Zhuge said, and the other group agreed with what the Grand Tutor said.

The two sides were arguing loudly, just like a vegetable market.

If we have a disagreement, you pull my sleeve and I will pull your face.

Jinghan was amused watching from the side.

Jing Chengji's eyes were like torches, and he said in a cold voice.

"presumptuous."

For a moment, the court was as quiet as a chicken.

The ministers pretended nothing had happened, straightened their court robes, and returned to their original seats.

said in unison.

"I dare not."

"Your Majesty, Sima Zhaoyun is already outside the palace."

The eunuch said.

All the civil and military officials in the court looked at each other, and then seemed to understand something, and all looked at Jing Chengji with admiration.

Jing Chengji sneered. If he waited for them to remember it, it would be too late.

"Let him in."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Jing Chengji wanted to test how Sima Fen would be dealt with.

On the one hand, Sima Fen was indeed not a good housekeeper, and Sima Zhaoyun was her son, so he deserved to die for touching the military pay. On the other hand, it was a pity for such a loyal minister to die.

Therefore, when the ministers were arguing, Jing Chengji sent someone to capture Sima Zhaoyun directly.

Following Jing Chengji's order, Sima Zhaoyun entered the court.

"Your Majesty, I, Sima Zhaoyun, pay my respects to you. Long live your Majesty!"

Sima Zhaoyun lowered his head, so he could only see the area under his feet.

He felt complacent in his heart, wondering if this was because Sima Shi recommended him.

The more he thought about it, the more difficult it became for Sima Zhaoyun to control himself.

His talent was finally noticed by His Majesty.

The big smile on his face was seen by everyone, and they sneered in their hearts.

idiot.
