Chapter 14 There's a Ghost
Sima Fen had already clenched his fists.
Seeing Sima Zhaoyun's stupid and unaware look, he was immediately furious.
After she apologized, she stood up.
His eyes looked around for something.
I searched for a long time but couldn't find any suitable tools.
So Sima Fen untied the belt of his official uniform.
With a "pa" sound, Sima Fen hit Sima Zhaoyun without any hesitation.
Sima Zhaoyun covered his arm and looked up.
"Mother, why did you hit me?"
Sima Zhaoyun felt aggrieved, but still couldn't see the situation clearly.
"Not only will I beat you, I will also beat you to death, you little beast, I will give you no more life."
Sima Zhaoyun retreated, feeling panicked, wondering if he had been exposed.
But then he thought again, even if he was exposed, so what? He and Sima Shi were uncle and nephew, so he was not wrong.
Sima Zhaoyun's eyes were searching for Sima Shi among all the civil and military officials in the court.
"Uncle, save me."
As for Sima Shi, who was tied up and face down in the middle of the court, Sima Zhaoyun completely ignored him.
"Who's your uncle? Could it be Sima Shi? You've betrayed your ancestors. What did our family motto say? You must never have anything to do with Sima Shi's lineage. How did you do that? You're just pretending to obey but secretly disobeying."
Sima Zhaoyun thought that the emperor must have something to tell him when he called him here. He was angry and felt that Sima Fen did not give him face in front of the emperor.
Sima Zhaoyun thought of this and grabbed Sima Fen's belt, holding his neck.
"Mom, what you said was all old news from long ago. No matter what, the blood relationship between our two families cannot be severed. Could it be that our ancestors did something wrong and decades later, we, the younger generation, have to bear the responsibility?!" Your Majesty will definitely be able to see my performance, hehe.
All the civil and military officials in the court felt sorry for Sima Fen. With such a fool at home, it was hard for him not to be defeated.
He's still spouting nonsense in front of His Majesty. Doesn't he think His Majesty can't tell right from wrong and will reward him?!
[No way, no way, you don't think His Majesty wants to give you an official position, do you?]
Jinghan said sarcastically.
System 3657 followed closely behind.
[That’s right, that’s what he thought!]
Everyone sang in unison, and everyone laughed out loud when they heard it.
Sima Zhaoyun replied subconsciously.
"Isn't it?"
This sentence is not abrupt.
Sima Fen made up his mind and kicked Sima Zhaoyun to the ground, then beat him with the belt in his hand.
"Ah~ Mother, why did you hit me? What did I do wrong?!"
Sima Zhaoyun rolled on the ground in pain, and his eyes met with Sima Shi's red, fat face.
Sima Zhaoyun recognized him.
He ignored the pain and asked tentatively.
"Uncle, is that you?"
"snort......"
Sima Shi glared at Sima Zhaoyun with disdain and turned his head away, not wanting to even look at him.
How could he believe such a fool? He deserves to be beaten to death.
However, if Sima Zhaoyun was not a fool, Sima Shi would not have been able to deceive him.
But at this moment, Sima Zhaoyun was so stupid that he was ashamed to admit it.
“Pah pah…”
When Sima Fen thought about the original timeline, where no one in her Sima family had a good ending because of Sima Zhaoyun, her eyes turned red with hatred.
Sima Fen swung his belt again and again, beating Sima Zhaoyun so hard that he rolled on the ground and his clothes were almost torn into tufts.
"Uncle, save me!"
Seeing that Sima Shi ignored him, Sima Zhaoyun still asked Sima Shi for help.
Sima Fen was so angry that she laughed. Since he wanted to become a family with Sima Shi so much, she would help him.
Jing Chengji had Sima Zhaoyun brought here, not to ask Sima Fen to beat him to death.
Jing Chengji's voice was low.
"That's about it."
Sima Fen then dropped the whip and bowed to Jing Chengji.
"Your Majesty, I acknowledge my guilt."
Sima Zhaoyun then remembered that he was in the court, and hurriedly endured the pain to file a complaint.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please save me. I don't know why my mother wants to whip me. What did I do wrong?"
[This Sima Zhaoyun is such a scumbag! ]
Sima Zhaoyun heard this and didn't know who said it, but he didn't agree. How could he have betrayed his mother? It was clearly his mother who beat him up without any reason.
System 3657's voice sounded so youthful that Sima Zhaoyun was momentarily stunned. He wondered, "Are there any officials in the Jing Kingdom who are under the age of 28?"
[Host, this is a swindler, he won't even pay for killing people! ]
Host? Where did this term come from?
Sima Zhaoyun was puzzled.
[Sima Fen's lineage has lost so many lives, how could he pay for it with just one life?]
[That’s right!]
Sima Zhaoyun widened his eyes. There is something fishy going on in this court.
"Your Majesty, this is..." Sima Zhaoyun suddenly fell to the ground, holding his heart.
He became even more convinced that something was wrong, otherwise why would his heart ache so badly before he could even say it out loud?
He apologized in his head.
"I'm sorry, ghost grandma, please spare my life."
Sure enough, as soon as he apologized, his heart discomfort disappeared.
When everyone saw Sima Zhaoyun like this, they knew that he could also hear the voices of the princess and the system.
Sima Fen flew up and kicked again.
"You beast, why don't you tell the truth? How did you get in touch with Sima Shi?"
Sima Zhaoyun didn't care about being afraid and said.
"Your Majesty, I understand that my uncle's family and mine are blood relatives, so there's no question of a connection."
"Mother, I don't understand why you have such a deep prejudice against my uncle's family."
【Why didn't Sima Fen beat him to death? 】
"You...ah, Your Majesty, I have failed in my parenting. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."
Seeing that Sima Zhaoyun seemed to have been bewitched by Sima Shi and was completely on Sima Shi's side, Sima Fen was too lazy to say anything more. Apart from apologizing to Jing Chengji, he took no other action.
At this time, Jing Chengji asked directly.
"Sima Zhaoyun, Sima Shi has already confessed his guilt. You were the one who gave him the idea to frame the princess for treason and embezzle military funds. Do you have anything to say?!"
Sima Zhaoyun trembled when he heard this.
No matter how stupid he is, there is no way he would admit to such a serious crime.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I dare not. I am just a junior, how dare I make decisions for my uncle?"
"I think you did a pretty good job of taking charge of your mother just now. Your mother didn't want you to have anything to do with Sima Shi, and you even accused her of being biased against him. What? You, Sima Zhaoyun, are the one saying all the good and bad things?!"
The system's words were clearly straightforward, but they sounded thick with irony.
Sima Fen was moved. This system spoke the true language of motherhood.
Sima Zhaoyun was about to refute, but he didn't see the source of the voice, so he thought it was the ghost speaking again, so he just trembled and said nothing.
But Sima Shi had something to say.
Liu Miao stepped forward and pulled off the smelly socks that were blocking his mouth.
Sima Shi said angrily.
"Sima Zhaoyun, it was clearly you who came to me on your own initiative. Otherwise, how would I know who you were? Now you're saying you can't be my boss. I remember clearly the smug look on your face when you were giving me advice."
Sima Zhaoyun hurriedly evaded responsibility.
"Uncle, my nephew is just a commoner, how can he influence your thoughts?"
