However, with the threat of the black magic Commandery, si Ma Yun was a little worried about going to war. It was more appropriate to keep him in the capital to deal with the unexpected events in the black magic Commandery.
In this case, he could only choose one of his sons or grandsons to be the commander!
“Alright, that’s your general opinion. There will be a war with seitong Commandery! Even if they want to talk, we’ll be hurting them and forcing them to take the initiative to talk!”!!
Sima zhengxin slapped the armrest of his chair and set the tone for this matter,””Now, why don’t you discuss who is more suitable to lead the expedition? Yun Qi is not one of them. There is another task for you to carry out!”
Sima Yun was slightly taken aback, but he didn’t ask any questions. He only bowed and acknowledged.
Si MA fengfei furrowed his brows in deep thought. The people around him were all discussing in low voices. In fact, they were just following the crowd’s opinion and didn’t have any opinions.
“Father, between your son and your subject, why don’t we choose a commander from the other great clans to lead the Army? This battle won’t be easy to fight. With them as the commander, our Sima clan will have more room to maneuver. ”
Sima Yun Fei thought for a while before coming up with such a suggestion. Sima Zheng Xin was so angry that his old face turned black.
“You bastard, what are you thinking? Consider defeat before victory?”
Sima zhengxin almost pointed at Sima Yunfei’s nose and scolded,””You’re the eldest son of the Sima clan, don’t you have any guts? Don’t you have any backbone?”
“What do you mean by more room for negotiation? Do you think that they will be the scapegoats for this defeat? Then have you ever thought that if they lead an Army into battle and lose, they will lose some reputation, but what if they win?”
“Hongshang Commandery will change hands! The Sima clan will lose their position as the ruler of Hongshang Commandery. Do you think they will be the ones to take the blame? They can’t wait to have the chance to take the blame!”
Sima Yun Fei’s face was completely red. He was reprimanded in front of so many people from the Sima clan, he was really embarrassed!
“Father, please calm down. Big brother didn’t mean it that way …”
Seeing that the old man was panting from anger, si Ma Yun quickly tried to persuade him,””Big brother might think that the other great clans have many talented commanders, so he doesn’t want to avoid revenge.”
“Forget it!”
Sima zhengxin sighed and waved his hand weakly,””You’re all living too comfortably and have lost some of your courage! In the long run, what hope would the Sima clan have? They will be replaced by the other families sooner or later!”
Everyone was silent. This topic was not easy to talk about, and no matter what they said, it would not be pleasing.
“Yunfei, you are the eldest son of the Emperor. This battle not only concerns the fate of Hongshang Commandery, but also the fate of our Sima clan. If we don’t have anyone in charge, the royal family will definitely change hands. You should say something to express your position!”
Sima Zheng Xin was very disappointed in Sima Yun Fei, but he still hoped for some luck. He wanted to see if he would be able to be brave after knowing shame, and suddenly stand up.
Unfortunately, Sima Yun Fei had no idea what shame was. He didn’t think that they would win this war, so why would he be willing to die?
“Father, as the eldest son of the Sima clan, I should step forward and take on this heavy responsibility … Unfortunately, I’ve been feeling unwell recently. I often feel my back ache and my legs cramp. I can’t even ride a horse, let alone go into battle …”
Sima Yunfei’s face was filled with embarrassment. He tried his best to force out an ashamed expression,””This son truly has the will but not the strength! With such a weak body, he can barely lead the Army. He will only deceive the elites of our Hongshang Commandery, and that is a great sin that can not be atoned for even with ten thousand deaths!”
All in all, he, Sima Yunfei, would definitely not be able to go out to battle unless he didn’t care about the Army being casually buried!
Sima Zheng Xin’s face turned black and was as gloomy as water. He had completely given up on Sima Yun Fei!
“Since Yunfei is not feeling well and can not lead the battle, why don’t we send Zhongxiao? As the eldest grandson of the Sima clan, it’s time for me to shoulder the heavy burden of the clan’s rise and fall!”
Sima Zhongxiao was overjoyed. He didn’t think that he would lose this battle. Even if he did lose, it was not a big deal as long as he could escape safely!
Therefore, he didn’t have much conflict with being the commander.
However, before Sima Zhong Xiao could express his opinion, Sima Yun Fei had already shook his head and waved his hand in refusal.
“No, no, no! Father, Zhongxiao has always been a scholar and doesn’t put much effort into martial arts. Although he has reached the nascent Soul Stage, his battle strength is not strong. ”
“If I lead the Army out, I might make a very bad decision due to my blind arrogance … So I think it’s better to find someone else to lead the Army!”
Sima Yunfei was completely shameless. In his opinion, going to war with the seitong Commandery was basically a death sentence!
Even if he came back alive, he would have to atone for his defeat. He was not willing to go, and of course, he would not let his precious son go!
Well … If it was Sima Zhongyi, then it would be fine.
This son of a concubine, if he died, then so be it. It didn’t matter if he died, but the old man would probably not agree.
If all the Sima clansmen were dead, perhaps Sima Zhongyi would have the chance to lead the Army?
Sima zhengxin almost laughed out of anger. His eldest son was really too smart!
Unfortunately, he was only smart about these small things. He didn’t think about it. If he didn’t grab this opportunity to perform, what right did he have to be the Crown Prince?
Just because of his dead mother?
A person’s death was like a lamp going out. The feelings that should have been there had almost been exhausted after so many years!
The status of the eldest son of the first wife was really nothing!
“Yunfei, since you are so confident, you must have your own opinion on who should lead the Army. Why don’t you recommend someone?”
Sima zhengxin’s lips curled into a cold smile. These words were said without any smoke or fire, but in reality, he was already on the verge of exploding!
“If father says so, then this son really does have a suitable candidate to recommend!”
Sima Yunfei didn’t hear his father’s dissatisfaction, but it probably didn’t matter if he did. In any case, he wouldn’t go to battle even if he was beaten to death.
“Who are you? Tell me about it!”
“Father, this person is right in front of us. He is the son that second brother has just found, my good nephew, Sima Zhongda!”
Sima Yunfei turned around with a smile and opened his palm to Lin Yi,””Of all the people present, apart from second brother, only Zhong da is the most suitable candidate!”
“What a joke! Big brother, what right do you have to say that Zhong da is the most suitable candidate? In terms of age, he was inferior to Zhong Xiao, and in terms of strength, he was also far inferior to Zhong Xiao. Zhong Xiao had received the royal family’s elite education since he was young and had achievements in both literature and martial arts. He wasn’t by our side since we were young …”
Sima Yunqi was furious. It was not easy to find his son and you want to send him to the front line?
If anything were to happen to him, even if he killed all of Sima Yunfei’s sons, it wouldn’t be enough to compensate him!
“Second brother, don’t be so agitated. I don’t recommend people randomly!”
Si Ma Jun waved his hand and interrupted,”Honorable nephew Zhong DA’s martial strength is astonishing, and he likes to fight when he has nothing to do. He definitely has something to rely on, so he’ll be like a fish in water once he enters the Army.”
