    When Liu Ke spent a lot of money in the brothel, Cao Cao couldn't be happy.

    The sacrificial ceremony at the Tongque Terrace really moved the heavens!

    What does this mean? King Dongyang is the real son of destiny.

    "Could it be that the Marquis of Dongyang really has God's help?"

    Cao Cao couldn't help but wonder, other than that, what other reasons could explain it.

    The epidemic in Jizhou suddenly disappeared?  !

    ¡°My lord, we have all been deceived by King Dongyang!¡± Sima Yi said suddenly.

    Cao Cao is worried that he has no thoughts.

    "Tell me."

    "In fact, Hua Tuo had already studied the solution to the plague from the "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases". King Dongyang's sacrifice to the sky was just superfluous. The reason why he did this was to gain greater prestige and further weaken the imperial power.  "Sima Yi analyzed.

    The work of offering sacrifices to heaven has always been done by the emperor.

    But King Dongyang actually intervened!

    "If it were before, the court would definitely criticize him with words and writings.

    But Cao Cao knows best what is going on in the court now, and he simply doesn¡¯t have the energy to take care of it.

    It would be okay if King Dongyang fails, Cao Cao doesn't mind adding insult to injury.

    However, King Dongyang succeeded and performed a miracle in front of tens of thousands of people.

    This is very unacceptable.

    "The reason why my subordinates concluded this is because Zhang Zhongjing effectively controlled the epidemic after arriving in Bingzhou."

    Cao Cao nodded helplessly, and at the same time looked at the documents written by Liang Xi, the governor of Bingzhou, and felt very uncomfortable.

    The prescription is available, but Bingzhou is short of medicine!

    There are many patients in Bingzhou, more than 50,000 people!

    Even if he emptied his treasury, Cao Cao would not be able to produce so many medicinal materials.

    We can only ask Dongyang Hou for help!

    Therefore, at this juncture, Cao Cao was even more afraid to cause trouble.

    "Zhongda, who is more appropriate to send as an envoy?"

    Sima Yi was stunned for a moment, he really didn¡¯t have a suitable candidate in mind.

    His assassination plan in Yecheng failed as expected.

    In this case, it is definitely dangerous to act as a messenger.

    ??Maybe the envoy will be gone as soon as Dongyang Hou gets angry.

    "Hua Xin and Zhong Yao are both ministers of the humerus, and their qualifications are sufficient." Sima Yi suggested.

    But Cao Cao frowned. Hua Xin and Zhong Yao are indeed good, but what if they can't come back?

    "I am willing to go!"

    While Cao Cao was thinking, Sima Lang suddenly stood up.

    Cao Cao gave Sima Lang a meaningful look and said, "Be careful on the road."

    As for arriving at the destinationit's no use being careful.

    Sima Yi kept winking at his brother, but the latter seemed not to notice.

    After saying goodbye to Cao Cao and returning home, Sima Yi said: "Brother, why did you go to such a dangerous thing?"

    Sima Lang was stunned and said, "What's so dangerous?"

    Sima Yi had no choice but to tell Sima Lang about his failed assassination attempt.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    Sima Lang was already thinking about scolding others. The reason why he took the initiative to ask for help was to prevent being marginalized.

    I finally completed a mission, but it turned out that I lost my life!

    Sima Lang is so aggrieved!

    "Zhongda, why didn't you tell me about such an important thing earlier?"

    Sima Yi was also very aggrieved. How could such an assassination be publicized everywhere?

    "But brother, you don't have to worry too much. They may not know that I am responsible for contacting them."

    "Alas!" Sima Lang sighed, "The king's order cannot be violated. For the sake of the family, I can only take one trip. If something happens to me, the Sima family will ask you, Zhongda!"

    "Don't worry, brother, if King Dongyang wants to kill you, he must ask for mercy! King Dongyang is soft-hearted, maybe he will let brother go." Sima Yi said.

    Begging for mercy?

    Sima Lang did not expect that his younger brother would actually say such a thing.

    However, in order to reassure his brother, he pretended to agree.

    A scholar cannot be killed but cannot be humiliated. If that is the case then, it would be better to die vigorously!

    So, Sima Lang set off boldly.

    Along the way, he was very honest.

      Jizhou has gradually returned to its original appearance, calm and peaceful.

    Soon, when the ice and snow melt, it will be spring.

    Sima Lang felt the burden on his shoulders was heavy!

    ¡­¡­

    "What, Sima Lang is coming?"

    During this period, Liu Ke had nothing to do and kept hanging out with girl Xiangxiang.

    The epidemic has been brought under control!

    As long as we wait until spring, if nothing unexpected happens, the plague will truly be over.

    "I'm afraid I came here to ask for medicine." Zhuge Liang said clearly.

    "How do you know?" Chen Dao was a little unconvinced.

    "Compared to Jizhou, Bingzhou is the hardest hit area. Even if Cao Cao has a prescription, where will he go to collect the medicine?" Zhuge Liang asked.

    With that said, Chen Dao understood.

    "My lord, according to people from the Wei family, the person who has corresponded with the Wei family may be Sima Yi!"

    "Then his brother still dares to come? This is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den!" Liu Xiaoxiao said.

    "No matter what, please order the arrest of Sima Lang, my lord." Chen Dao said with murderous intent.

    Zhuge Liang held an opposing opinion and said:

    "Things are not that simple. Sima Lang is coming as a messenger and cannot be killed."

    "What happened to the envoy?" Chen Dao was a little disdainful.

    "It's not like my lord has never done this before!"

    Liu Ke pouted, indicating that he would not take the blame.

    "Secondly, Sima Lang came to replace the 100,000 disaster victims in Bingzhou. If we attack him, it will damage the lord's prestige." Zhuge Liang said.

    The meaning is already very clear. Sima Lang is very hot and confident.

    Unlike ordinary people, the Sima family is very powerful, especially Sima Yi and Sima Lang, who are highly valued by Cao Cao.

    Killing him rashly will have serious consequences.

    "Since we can't kill him, we can imprison him," Chen said.

    "The people of Bingzhou are waiting for medicinal materials to save their lives. It is very inappropriate to imprison Sima Lang." Zhuge Liang said.

    "This won't work, that won't work either, how can you vent your anger?" Chen Dao said impatiently.

    He is a relatively mature and steady person, but he also has a bottom line.

    Liu Ke is his bottom line.

    It is Chen Dao¡¯s responsibility to protect Liu Ke.

    ¡°Now someone hires a murderer to assassinate Liu Ke, but the person behind the scenes is at large, which is unacceptable to Chen Dao.

    ¡°Can¡¯t we just wait until the matter is over and then deal with him?¡± Liu Kedao said.

    Chen Dao¡¯s eyes lit up!

    Zhuge Liang was a little worried and said: "My lord, our medicinal materials are not brought by strong winds. Who knows whether a larger-scale plague will break out in the spring, so we can't give them any advantage."

    "You're right! You must make a big deal!" Chen Dao agreed.

    Of course Liu Ke thought about it too, but how could Cao Cao, a poor man, have the money to buy medicines?

    During the discussion, Sima Lang had entered Yecheng and asked to see Liu Ke.

    Liu Ke was not polite and told Sima Lang clearly:

    "What price is Cao Cao prepared to pay?"

    It is said that the Marquis of Dongyang loves his people like a son, but this is not true!

    Sima Lang, who had seen through everything, was very disdainful.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
