Section 95 Refers to a deer as a horse

On April 21, 2018, the third year of the Qin Dynasty, Xianyang was performed with the absurd farce called "Character for Deer and Horse" directed by Prime Minister Zhao Gao, and Emperor Hu Hai and a group of court officials as the main actors.

Outside Wangyi Palace.

Sima Xin was still waiting for the unattainable "summoning".

Just when Sima Xin was uneasy, a burst of rapid footsteps sounded, and the sound came from behind. Therefore, it was obvious that the person who came was not the eunuch of the palace, and Sima Xin felt disappointed.

"Uncle -, Neishi and Lord Zongzheng were arrested by Zhao Gao. Let's run away quickly. It's too late to be too late!" Before Sima Xin could wake up from her disappointment, an even more shocking news suddenly came.

The person who came to report to him was Sima Liang. This young commander who had experienced a bloody battle in Xingyang with Fu Ge, now his body is slightly fat, and his face is much whiter than when he was in the army. Maybe he had been in the Xianyang officialdom for a long time.

Half of Sima Xin's ability to gain a foothold in Xianyang was due to the backstage of Zhang Han, the general, and the other half was his extensive communication skills. Of course, as an old guy over fifty years old, the military chief of the army was released, even if Sima Xin's charm was strong, she could not win many connections in the Qin capital of Xianyang, which was full of royal relatives and nobles. So Sima Liang, who was young and handsome, became his most powerful helper.

A young man is not as good as a young man. In Xianyang, there are many high-ranking officials and many internal relatives who are suitable for marriage. It is difficult to find a good husband. Especially after Hu Hai and Zhao Gao raised the butcher knife to the royal family, the most popular royal family suddenly became abandoned by everyone. After all, no one wanted to lose his head in a mess.

Therefore, in the eyes of many senior officials, the most favorite young heroes of the Qin Dynasty, Zhang Han and Zhao Gao. Of course, in addition to this most basic condition, they also have to compete for whether they are handsome and upright in appearance, and whether they are outstanding. In these aspects, there are very few young talents in the Zhao Gao family. The only one who is still good at showing off is Zhao Gao's son-in-law. However, with Zhao Gao's power, who dares to hook up with this "King of Hell".

Sima among people—.

This is Sima Liang's reputation as "Fengliu" in Xianyang. With this unmatched connection, Sima Liang's source of information is extensive. Zhao Gao had just raised his butcher's knife, and Sima Liang got dangerous information under the concern of Huaichun's red fan confidante.

Women are absolutely not as sensitive to politics as men. When they know that their beloved man is in trouble, their first reaction is often not to judge whether the matter is right or wrong, but to try every means to save the man's life first. In this sense, Sima Liang's trick is not beautiful, but it is effective.

"Oh, Daqin, is Daqin really going to be defeated?" Sima Xin slowly raised her head, looked at the magnificent palace in front of her, and muttered to herself with a complicated expression.

"Uncle, hurry up -, I have bribed the commander guarding the southern city gate. If you are too late, I am afraid that the King of Hell's soldiers will arrive!" Seeing that Sima Xin was still hesitating, Sima Liang urged him urgently.

"Let's go!" In the face of Hu Hai's debauchery and Zhao Gao's massacre, Sima Xin, who had been waiting for a long time, finally fully understood that the second life had reached the 'no cure'. In order to save his life, he had no other choice but to escape.

"Hurry, the Prime Minister has an order, don't let Sima Xin run away?" A loud shout and footsteps came from the corner of the street not far away. This was the hunting guard sent by Zhao Gao.

"Uncle, go to the south gate, I'll go east, remember, don't stop!" Sima Liang shouted in panic, pushing Sima Xin into the shadow of the dark corner, and then he quickly ran towards the city gate to the east. The situation was urgent, and the experience of fighting on the battlefield helped him make a decision quickly. It was difficult to do both things. Only by attracting the attention of the pursuers first can you escape from Xianyang City. Otherwise, when the whole city blocks the city gates, it will be difficult to leave the city even if you have wings.

Sima Liang ran and shouted, "Zhao Gao, you are a catfish dog that has caused trouble in Chaogang. When our Sima Xin leads our troops back, you will want you to look good!"

Sima Liang's scolding was really vicious. The most taboo thing Zhao Gao had in his life was that someone cut off his body and talked about it. For a man, the "baby" that did not gallop across his soft and fragrant body was a shameless thing. Before Zhao Gao became the prime minister, whenever an official made fun of him, Zhao Gao would look smiling, as if he didn't keep these humiliating words in his heart. In fact, he would remember everything that person said on one day. When he was firmly in his position as prime minister, the officials who made fun of him were demoted or killed for violating the law, and none of them got a good ending.

It is better to offend a gentleman than a villain. This is almost a semi-public secret among officials in the Qin Dynasty.

Now, Sima Liang shouted all over the streets, and the pursuers responsible for the arrest were even more reluctant to leave. It was a great achievement to catch "Sima Xin", and it was a top priority to catch Sima Xin who scolded the Prime Minister.

"Liang'er!" Sima Xin, hiding in the shadows, witnessed the pursuers running by in a swarm. After sighing a long time, she turned around and headed towards the south gate.

Sima Liang's trick of escape from the shell cannot hide the pursuit of the soldiers for long. Once he is surrounded, Yan Le, who also serves as the Xianyang Order, will understand that he has fallen into a trap. As an elder in a family, Sima Xin certainly cannot bear to let Sima Liang's most outstanding junior talent in the clan be like this, but as a soldier, he understands even more that only by escaping from Xianyang City first can Sima Liang's sacrifice be valuable.

Sima Xin, who knew the situation was in danger, rushed directly to the south gate. In fact, if he still missed his family at this time, he might never be able to escape. In addition to Yan Le, Zhao Gao also ordered his younger brother Zhao Cheng to lead a group of guards to ambush near Sima Xin's Changshi Mansion.

With two-pronged approach, Zhao Gao's murderous intention is unstoppable.
