The reason is very simple.

Because of one person.

Emperor Sima Yu.

Sima Yu asked Wang Sheng to be a lonely minister.

What is a lonely minister?

The so-called lonely minister is one who is alone and has no help from outside.

Whether it was Sima Yue, King of the East China Sea, or the quota for the Western Expedition, it was Emperor Sima Yu who gave Wang Sheng special care because he was afraid that Wang Sheng would not be able to withstand the pressure.

If Wang Sheng announced at this time that he was from the Wang family in Taiyuan...

The result...

What will happen?

Will Emperor Sima Yu take back his life?

And ignored Wang Sheng?

unknown.

Even though this possibility is very small, Wang Sheng does not want to take this risk.

This is also the reason why Wang Sheng will not return for the time being.

However, not returning for the time being does not mean not returning.

The reason is also very simple.

Wang Sheng needs an identity.

This era is, after all, the era of noble families.

With Wang Sheng's humble body, the reason why he is able to gain a firm foothold in the court now is only because of the favor of the emperor, that is, Sima Yu.

If Sima Yu's favor were left aside, Wang Sheng would be nothing.

Still just a Hansu.

But if you come from a wealthy family, it's different.

Even if the emperor no longer trusts you, you still have support and others will not dare to underestimate you.

but...

This is a subtle process and should not be rushed.

Anxious.

Not only would Wang Sheng not be favored by Emperor Sima Yu, but after losing power, he might become the marionette of the Wang family in Taiyuan.

Because of Wang Sheng's relationship, the Wang family in Taiyuan allowed many of their children to become officials.

Make a lot of money.

For distant branches that have no use value, will the Wang family of Taiyuan praise Wang Sheng to the sky?

Not to mention flattering, I'm afraid Wang Sheng's treatment is no different from that of his father Wang Yi.

Moreover, in the process of his rise, Wang Sheng came to power by stepping on the corpses of others.

Ouyang Jian, who is far away in the East China Sea, and King Zhao, who is nearby in Luoyang, if they see Wang Sheng lose power.

Is there any way for him to survive?

From the beginning to now, Wang Sheng's thinking has been very clear.

Regarding this visit of the Taiyuan Wang family, Wang Sheng had their purpose clearly thought out from the beginning.

A high-ranking family member, if you are stupid and are sold by them, you will still have to count the money for them.

Fortunately, Wang Sheng didn't have many other characteristics, but his intelligence was extremely outstanding.

After Wang Wen and others moved away, Zhang Bin slowly stood up from the screen behind the main hall.

During the conversation with Wang Wen, Zhang Bin had been eavesdropping from behind the screen.

"Sir, what do you think of my handling of this matter?"

"The master's handling of nature is flawless."

Flattering and flattering your boss is a good habit.

Zhang Bin's original thoughts were actually no different from Wang Wen's.

This era is an era of aristocratic families. Origin determines your future achievements and your social circle.

Wang Sheng is definitely an outlier for being able to reach the position of Marquis Guangyuan.

Not many outliers.

If it weren't for Conglong's skill and the emperor's trust, without either of these two, there would be no possibility of success.

Have connections with high-ranking families, and even become a member of high-ranking families...

It is the dream of many Han Sus throughout their lives.

How many people want to join a noble family and do not hesitate to marry into the family.

And now Wang Sheng can take the upright path of "returning to the clan", and he can be said to be a member of the Wang family in Taiyuan.

Why not?

This was Zhang Bin's initial thought.

But Zhang Bin is so smart.

There is no free lunch in the world.

Just thinking about the purpose of the Taiyuan Wang family, Zhang Bin connected the whole thing.

Originally he was worried that Wang Sheng would make a wrong choice, but now it seems that he was overthinking it.

In terms of wisdom, my master is not inferior to him at all.

In some aspects, it even surpasses him.

The only thing that was inferior to him, Zhang Bin thought about it for a long time, and could only say that it was basic things, and his master didn't know much about it.

It's like the Book of War, the Spring and Autumn Period, and even some words, you still need to ask him for advice.

Although this is very strange, a person with great talent is actually a guy with very poor foundation.

But when I thought that this person was Wang Sheng of Luoyang.

perhaps...

There is no guarantee that my master is really the reincarnation of Wenquxing.

Of course, there is also the possibility that my master is hiding his clumsiness on purpose.

However, this is unlikely.

"Sir, I think it's good, but is there anything bad that could happen?"

Wang Sheng has always been a fan of Yayan.

Being good at accepting advice is a good habit.

Zhang Bin is a counselor after all, and different people have different perspectives on problems.

Maybe Zhang Bin has a different opinion.

"Bad place?"

Zhang Bin thought for a while and then spoke out.

"Most of my master's actions were good, but there was one point where he was a bit reckless."

"oh?"

Wang Sheng's eyes brightened slightly.

"Which place?"

"My lord should not have made a promise to Wang Wen and promised to reply to him before the Western Expedition. The so-called true man always keeps his word. If my lord breaks his promise, I'm afraid..."

This is indeed a reckless decision.

but...

But not fatal.

The dragging technique is very useful.

Just call yourself sick.

In this way, the Taiyuan Wang family did not dare to do anything to Wang Sheng.

It's just that he may be jealous of the Taiyuan Wang family, and his return to the clan may be ruined.

but...

Wang Sheng is still not worried.

After all, the Western Expedition is not something that can be completed in a short time.

Not to mention that it is now a cold day in winter, the weather is extremely cold, and the snow on the road makes it impossible for carriages to move.

It is said that before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass must go first. If you want to fight a war, the first thing you must prepare for is the food problem.

Regarding the food issue, if you don't want to use the food in the granary, if you want to collect food, it will definitely not be something that can be completed in a short time.

Moreover, it would take time for the messenger to reach Chang'an and the King of Hejian.

After being blocked at Tongguan, of course the messenger had to take a detour for safety reasons.

Detouring means extending the time.

Traveling in the cold winter will naturally delay time.

Back and forth, even if the messenger moves at full speed, it will take at least a month or two.

Wang Sheng still has plenty of time.

"So this is it."

Wang Sheng laughed and asked again: "Is there anything else that I can't handle clumsily?"

"there is none left."

Is this a flaw that Zhang Bin found by looking for bones in his eggs? If he searched again, he really couldn't find it.

Zhang Bin also understood a little bit about Wang Sheng's thoughts.

The Western Expedition will still take a long time, and during this long time, there will be great changes.

The first variable is King Qi.

The so-called troubled waters are easy to fish in.

If King Qi confused Sima Yu so much that even at this moment, Wang Sheng admitted that he was from the Wang family in Taiyuan, Sima Yu might not be able to take care of Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng needs a chance now.

That is to say, there needs to be an east wind.

.....

Luoyang Imperial Palace.

East Hall of Tai Chi Hall.

Sima Yu, the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, looked very dark at this time.

He held the document from Qi in his hand so tightly that the sheepskin document wrinkled in Sima Yu's hand.

"King Qi!"

The emperor gritted his teeth and squeezed out each word from between his teeth, his face extremely ferocious.

Beside them, whether they were the palm-printed eunuchs or the palace maid's little eunuchs, they were all lying on the ground, trembling and not daring to move.

In the anger of the emperor, millions of corpses were laid down, and blood was shed in the oars.

After becoming the emperor, Sima Yu's patience was gradually worn away by the cumbersome affairs of the government.

He wants to kill someone now.
