In the main hall, Cao Cao was correcting the memorial.
Sima Yi reported at the foot of the steps:
"My lord, something happened in Jingzhou."
Cao Cao put down what he was doing, raised his head, and said, "Isn't Sun Ce still not satisfied? A king of Changsha still can't impress him and say, what does he want?"
As long as Cao Cao is satisfied, he will not refuse.
This time, Cao Cao faced a very serious situation.
Only by breaking the cauldron can we have a chance to win.
Sun Ce is a big helper. Of course Cao Cao wants to win over him, and he is also prepared to be blackmailed.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he was the King of Changsha!
These are still the initial conditions, Cao Cao can add more chips.
"Sun Ce did not refuse or put forward more conditions, but Yangzhou sent an envoy." Sima Yi said.
Um?
Cao Cao was shocked, but he quickly adjusted.
"Sun Bofu has his ambitions in the world and will not be so short-sighted."
"The envoy is Changshan Zhao Zilong."
"How could it be him?"
Cao Cao was shocked again, Liu Dingfang, are you too good at opportunism?
¡°You didn¡¯t send a civilian envoy, but instead sent a military commander!
Cao Cao knows what kind of character Sun Ce is. Cao Cao also knows that Sun Ce has some friendship with Zhao Yun.
So he is a little panicked now.
"My lord, I plan to go to Jingzhou." Sima Yi requested.
"If we don't save it now and let Sun Ce fall to Yangzhou, Cao Cao will be doomed."
It¡¯s completely over.
One King of Dongyang is enough, but if Sun Ce is added to the equation, reform will be useless.
Cao Cao couldn't breathe at the thought of twice as many troops coming over him.
"Alas, it's just that after you left, Zhongda, I have fewer people to rely on."
Cao Cao is a man of foresight, so he has no objection to Sima Yi leaving.
But if this happens, what will happen to the four states under our rule?
Because of the reform, chaos arose, and Cao Cao could not control it alone.
No matter how diligent he is, he still has more than enough ambition but not enough energy.
Hearing Cao Cao's sigh, Sima Yi's heart moved. He thought of his younger brother Sima Fu who was doing nothing at home.
Sima Fu is one of the Sima Bada, but with Sima Lang and Sima Yi serving as officials in the court, the family does not need him to support their appearance.
¡° He even thought about taking refuge in Yangzhou.
Sima Yi thought for a while and recommended his younger brother to Cao Cao.
"My lord, I have a younger brother who is extremely talented and not inferior to me."
"real?"
Cao Cao's tone was a little excited.
Cao Cao has already learned about Sima Yi's ability, which is unfathomable.
This reform is also due to Sima Yi. It was also because of the reforms that Cao Cao had a glimmer of hope of defeating Yangzhou.
If there is another talented person like Sima Yi, then this one thread will become two threads.
Cao Cao suffered a lot from Liu Ke and knew the importance of talents.
With talents, everything will be much easier.
Now when he heard that Sima Yi actually had a younger brother with similar talents to him, Cao Cao became excited.
At the same time, he also deeply blamed himself.
There are such talents in his territory, and he only knows about it now!
This is also the fault of the Sima family. Sima Lang and Sima Yi have already been born, but they actually have a younger brother!
No, according to the arrangement of the family, there might be more than one younger brother.
"In that case, Zhongda, before you leave, ask your brother to come to Chang'an to see me."
Chang'an is where the Prince of Wei's palace is located, and it is also far away from Yangzhou, so it will not be exposed as soon as the war starts.
¡°Yes!¡± Sima Yi agreed.
However, when Sima Yi returned home and told Sima Fu about the incident, the latter found it difficult to accept it.
"Brother, youhow can you make your own decisions?"
After hearing this, Sima Fu was anxious and angry, and said, "I have my own opinion, brother, don't worry about me."
Sima Fu was a wonderful man. Historically, although he participated in the conspiracy to seize Zuo of the great Wei Dynasty, he regarded himself as a Wei minister until his death.
He lived longer than Sima Yi and died at the age of ninety-three.
The Sima family seems to have an unknown longevity gene.
"Brother, I know that you are very intelligent. Do you want to do nothing at home?" Sima Yi asked strangely.
"Brother, please listen to me. The fortunes of the imperial court and the country have declined, and Cao Cao is unable to make a comeback. If I, like my two brothers, defect to Cao Cao, what will our Sima family do once King Dongyang takes over the world?"
Sima Fu became anxious and called Cao Cao by his name. This was disrespectful.
But neither of them paid attention.
"If the imperial court is destroyed, Cao Cao, as the king of Wei and a great hero, will be beheaded. If I follow him, won't I be buried with him? The entire Sima family will be buried with him."
Sima Fu thought about his family, which touched Sima Yi.
"What should we do?"
Sima Yi did not force his brother, he said: "My lord knows that you are wise and wants to see you by name."
"Brother, this is simple. At worst, I will just pretend to be sick."
Sima Fu waved his hand and said: "Go and reply to Cao Cao, saying that I am seriously ill and will not recover in three to five years. I will take up an official position depending on the opportunity. With my brother's kindness, I believe Cao Cao will not embarrass me."
¡°That¡¯s all we can do for now.¡± Sima Yi nodded.
The next day, he used this excuse to reply to Cao Cao.
But who is Cao Cao?
Suspiciousness doesn¡¯t last for a day or two anymore.
Sima Yi was recommending his good brother the day before, but the next day he said that his brother was seriously ill.
¡°Could it be that Sima Yi, the elder brother, doesn¡¯t know at all that his younger brother is sick?
¡°Isn¡¯t this treating Cao Mengde as a fool?
"Is this really true?" Cao Cao sneered and stared at Sima Yi.
Now is a sensitive period, and Cao Cao cannot tolerate his subordinates deceiving him.
What¡¯s more, it¡¯s Sima Yi, a minister with great power!
"Yes, indeed."
Sima Yi had to bite the bullet and answer. To back down at this point would be to deceive the emperor.
"Okay." Cao Cao's tone softened, and just when Sima Yi thought it was okay, Cao Cao said one more sentence.
"Since your brother is seriously ill, you might as well send some imperial doctors to visit him."
Sima Yi felt depressed, why could Cao Cao be so serious and not show any affection?
What about trust between people?
Sima Fu now has good food and drink at home, is lively, can read loudly, and practices calligraphy all day long.
If Cao Cao sends an imperial doctor to see Sima Fu and it turns out that he is not sick, then the Sima family will be in trouble.
Sima Yi¡¯s hard-earned achievements will be lost.
Although Cao Cao will continue to appoint him, he will definitely be on guard.
Sima Yi is now free, wandering around, happy and happy, and can perform various meritorious deeds. Life is so good, but it cannot be ruined by this.
This time he was tricked by his younger brother!
It was obviously a good thing, why didn¡¯t Sima Fu accept it?
Another point is that Sima Yi overestimated his status in Cao Cao's mind.
I thought I could convince Cao Cao with just one sentence, but now it¡¯s over.
Therefore, Sima Yi was absent-minded and spent the whole day in a trance.
The trip to Jingzhou has been postponed.
He had already sent someone back to the mansion in advance to inform Sima Fu that the imperial doctor was coming.
After hearing this, Sima Fu felt very calm.
"Cao Cao sent someone here, can't I pretend to be sick? There are many allusions to ancient people pretending to be sick. Today it's my turn, Sima Fu."
