[Three Kingdoms] Carnival

"Otherwise what?" Sima Yi held the letter in his hand, casually raised his eyes and glanced at Cao Pi who could be said to be furious, "If Yi moves his hand, the second son will kill Yi?"

Sima Yi's casual look further angered Cao Pi.He strode forward, grabbed the bamboo slip in Sima Yi's hand, and threw it aside.The bamboo slip hit the wall and made a loud noise: "Sima Yi, did you really hurt Brother Chong?!"

"So what if it is, so what if it's not?" Sima Yi raised his head and replied with a sneer, "Cao Cao's preference for Cao Chong, Xu Du Yecheng, who doesn't know it well? All those who have different intentions and are not very bold will play Cao Chong's thoughts .”

"So" Cao Pi's eyes darkened, darker than that of a moonless night, "You can also be a member of the group of people who disturbed my brother's mind?"

Cao Pi's words became more and more unpleasant.Sima Yi's expression finally darkened, and he frowned and said, "What the hell are you doing here today?"

"Who is going crazy?" Cao Pi's voice seemed to be frozen, "You know that among the many brothers, father loves brother Chong the most, and you also know that his whereabouts are unknown, so I will handle Xudu's affairs. Now that something happened to brother Chong, I He became the most suspicious person! Are you trying to kill me by doing it now?!"

"You are really crazy." Sima Yi also said every word like ice, "Since you know that this matter is not good for you. Yi is your aide, why do you want to help other people to harm you?"

"It's not anyone else." Cao Pi suddenly calmed down, staring at Sima Yi with a strange smile on his lips, "The businessman is ruthless, you will always help only yourself.

Let Pi be suspected of murdering his younger brother, and his reputation was damaged, and he deliberately used a stupid person like Dr. Qi so that Pi would not be trapped to death.Only in this way, Pi will continue to rely on you, trust you, and you can play with Pi in the palm of your hand! "

With a "snap", Sima Yi jumped up against the case, his face full of anger: "Okay! Since the second son is sure that it was Yi who did it, then tie Yi directly, so that he can explain to Prime Minister Cao in the future!"

"Sure enough, you still admitted it." Cao Pi sneered, "You are my aide, and if I hand you over, everyone will think that I ordered you. Those obvious flaws were all deliberately left by me to cover up people's eyes and ears. You know I know... No matter what, Pi has to protect you."

"Since that's the case," the anger on Sima Yi's face had suddenly faded when Cao Pi spoke, and he slowly sat back to his original place, returning to the relaxed look he had when Cao Pi first came in. "Then why does the second son criticize Yi again?"

"Don't push yourself any further! Sooner or later"

"Ok?"

The four eyes met, Cao Pi glared at Sima Yi, his lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something but held back.After a moment of stalemate, Cao Pi flicked his sleeves angrily, turned and left.

"Second Young Master, it's better not to see him off."

"Sima Yi and Cao Pi had a quarrel?" After hearing the report from the servant who was installed in Cao Pi's yard, Yang Xiu was amused, "Xiu always thought that Sima Yi was a cold and weird person, but he became so angry after being accused by Cao Pi that he even forgot to explain. Yes. It’s really God’s help to the Fourth Young Master.”

Ding Yi, who happened to be looking for Cao Zhi at this time, heard Yang Xiu's words, frowned and asked, "Didn't Doctor Qi be arranged by Sima Yi?"

"Of course not." Yang Xiu said while waving his servants to retreat, "No matter how bad Sima Yi and Cao Pi are at odds, it is impossible to use a fool like Dr. A scheming man, Cao Chong has nothing to worry about in the struggle for an heir."

"Then...that's weird." Ding Yi folded his hands and propped his chin while thinking, "Besides Sima Yi, who else could have bribed Dr. Qi?"

"Who else could it be? It's far away in the sky, but close in front of us."

"What?!" Ding Yi looked at Yang Xiu in surprise, "That's Cao Chong's colic."

"That has nothing to do with Xiu Ke." Yang Xiu laughed.On his handsome face, the long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and the slight curvature of the corners of his lips revealed a confident confidence, "No, there is actually something to do with it. Xiu knew that someone was going to murder Cao Chong, but Xiu didn't stop him, but let Doctor Qi Added fuel to the flames. It's a pity, a pity, Cao Pi's luck was beyond Xiu's expectations, and he actually met Hua Tuo and saved Cao Chong, but his suspicion became smaller in the end."

However, if the relationship between Sima Yi and Cao Pi can be divorced over this matter, it will be worthwhile to lose a Doctor Qi.

Ding Yi looked deeply at Yang Xiu.The same person who loves Cao Zhi, he never liked Yang Xiu's self-important appearance, as if everyone was not as smart as him.But thinking that Yang Xiu knew in advance that someone was going to murder Cao Chong, and that Dr. Qi would rather commit suicide than betray him, he couldn't help but feel that Yang Xiu was also unfathomable under his arrogant appearance.Disgusted and vigilant at the same time, Ding Yi was full of fear towards Yang Xiu, and even the tone of his words was mixed with indescribable emotions:

"Then... who is going to attack Cao Chong?"

"You can't say this, you can't say it." Yang Xiu smiled inscrutablely, but it was obvious that he already knew the answer, "They are just people who are dying, and it is not worth your trouble. What we have to do now is to take advantage of it." When Prime Minister Cao is not around, give fourth son a push."

Ding Yi recalled what Cao Zhi had said solemnly to them before, and shook her head: "I'm afraid the fourth son is unwilling."

"The fourth son is young, whether you want to or not depends on your ability." As soon as Yang Xiu finished speaking, he saw Cao Zhi approaching from a distance.He raised his lips and smiled, and bowed to Cao Zhi together with Ding Yi.

"What the servant came to report just now, don't talk about it with the Fourth Young Master."

When the matter is settled, the fourth son is unwilling, but for the sake of the overall situation, he must also be willing.

However, the servant who got the news and rushed to report didn't know that after Cao Pi walked away angrily, he didn't leave, but waited at the corner of the courtyard for a while, and then turned back.

"The second son is here to fight for the young master again?" Sima Yi said without raising his head when he heard the door knock and picked up a scroll of bamboo slips again.

Cao Pi sat down on the mat next to Sima Yi, his face still gritted his teeth and was full of anger.Leaning against Sima Yi, he asked with a smile, "How does Zhong Da feel about Pi Fang's acting skills?"

"So-so, there are enough people to deceive Yang Xiu." Sima Yi replied, "But there are dragons and snakes in your yard, so it's time to find a chance to clean it up."

"Wait until father comes back. Now, just let them make a fuss."

"If you want to take something, you must give it first; if you want to take it away, you must give it firmly?"

"Thanks to Mr. Zhongda's good teaching, Pi understands this truth."

"You trust Yi so much, so you're not afraid." Sima Yi put the last word on Jian's eyes down, and looked at Cao Pi probing, "Did Yi really do this?"

"Don't be afraid." Cao Pi smiled lightly, "From the moment Zhongda became an official, he and Pi will share weal and woe and share life and death together. Doesn't Pi doubt you, is he doubt himself?"

I don't know when, when Cao Pi, who was mature and calm in front of outsiders, faced Sima Yi alone in private, he seemed to let go of his guard and alienation. The appearance of the teenagers overlaps.

Sima Yi lowered his eyes uncomfortably.

Between the monarch and his ministers, each takes what he needs is the long-term way.As for the emperor abandoning his ministers, and his ministers killing the emperor, they have never been less than in the history books.What's more, the reason why he and Cao Pi got acquainted was precisely because of the clear exchange of interests.There was never a grain of truth in this transaction.

He knows that Cao Pi, who was born in a whirlpool of power since he was a child, now shows these unguarded and close actions towards him, just to further subdue his loyalty, make him as stupid as Guo Jia, and exhaust his heart and brains for Cao's world. the rest of my life.

But just now, when Cao Pi looked at him like that, his heart skipped a beat.

He actually, at that moment, believed some of Cao Pi's words.

As cautious as Sima Yi, even if his heart is touched, he will carefully hide it, so that Cao Pi will not notice the abnormality. When he raises his eyes again, there is no abnormality in his eyes.He bluntly brought the topic back to business: "Since that's the case, have you found out who was going to kill the young master? Doctor Qi was guided by Yang Xiu, but he must not have the guts to murder Cao Chong."

"Young Master Sima is right." A voice suddenly sounded from the door of the house.A young man who looked three or four years younger than Cao Pi bowed his hands, as a salute to Cao Pi and Sima Yi.While he was saluting, an eighteen or nine-year-old boy walked in behind him.The boy's waist-length hair was tied up with a cloth belt, but it was unknown whether it was intentional or unintentional. A strand of hair was left outside. As for the blue clothes, they were also loosely dressed, and it was obvious that they hadn't been tidied up properly.

Although he is still young, Cao Pi and Sima Yi feel a little familiar with his disregard for image and his familiar eyebrows.

"Young Master Zhou, please sit down." Cao Pi nodded to Zhou Buyi.He has always had a good impression of this smart man who is very friendly with Brother Chong.However, Zhou Buyi devoted himself to assisting Brother Chong. He fought for several times but failed, so he had to give up.

But I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse. This time, what happened to Cao Chong made Zhou Buyi take the initiative to find Cao Pi, and they became more acquainted with each other.However, at this time Cao Pi had completely let go of his desire to recruit Zhou Buyi.Zhou Buyi is a smart person, and he has no intention of being interested in Cao Pi. If he insists on it, it will only backfire. It is better to just get close to Shi En, leave enough goodwill in Zhou Buyi's heart, and wait for the future use.

As for the other boy

"A Yi, have you finished your homework? Why are you here with Mr. Zhou?" Cao Pi smiled and beckoned Guo Yi to sit beside him.

"Yi was going to look for Brother Pi, but happened to meet Brother Buyi. Hearing that Brother Pi was with Mr. Sima, we came in together."

"Send someone to tell you before you come next time, prepare some food you like to eat." After Guo Yi sat down, Cao Pi looked at Zhou Buyi with a humble expression, "I'm stupid, I don't know what Young Master Zhou said just now What do you mean?"

Zhou Buyi nodded slightly, and continued the previous words: "As Mr. Sima said, Yang Xiu would not dare to murder the young master. As for the Ding brothers, they have no such courage. But if so, why did the young master suddenly suffer from colic? What about such an emergency?"

"No doubt you already know the reason?" Cao Pi changed his address calmly.

"It's not Yang Xiu Dingyi, and the other people in the mansion have no reason or opportunity. Then, who else wants to see the prime minister's mansion fight with each other? I believe that the second son and Mr. Sima should have thought of it a long time ago."

Cao Pi and Sima Yi looked at each other, and found the same answer in each other's eyes.

After a pause, Cao Pi continued to speak slowly: "But, they have no chance."

Although this is Xudu, and although Cao Cao's whereabouts are unknown, people are panicking, but it is still absolutely impossible for people outside the mansion to make such a big move in the mansion.

"If it's one of them, there's no chance. But what if...the people in the mansion acted as an accomplice without knowing it?"

"doubt means"

"Brother Chong not only ate the fruit sent by Brother Pi that day, but also drank tea," Guo Yi interrupted suddenly, the immature voice was in stark contrast to the deep meaning in the words,

"The tea was sent back to the mansion by Sister Jie."

The "sister Jie" in Guo Yi's mouth is Cao Cao's daughter, Cao Jie.

Although Cao Jie was born in the Cao family, he has always had a good personal relationship with Fu Hou, and Fu Hou often invited her to live in the palace.This tea was brought back by Cao Jie's personal maid who accompanied her into the palace. She said that it was clear but not astringent, extremely refreshing, and it was a rare thing, so she specially sent it back for everyone to taste.

"Just ask Ms. Cao where the tea comes from, and the truth will be revealed, so that people with ulterior motives will have nowhere to hide. Second son, I only have one request," Zhou Buyi looked at the thoughtful Cao Pi's smile narrowed, and there was a murderous look in his eyes, "No matter who it is, Second Young Master, please don't let anyone who dares to harm Ah Chong go. As long as Second Young Master can do this, from now on, if you have a mission, you will be the first to dismount." It's a saddle, and I will never refuse."

In the end, everyone agreed that Cao Pi would invite Cao Cao's eldest daughter, who was already married to Xiahou Mou Yuanh, on the grounds that she missed her younger sister, to meet Cao Jie in the palace and ask the ins and outs before deciding what to do next.

"Mr. Guo, please stay."

"Mr. Sima, what else is there?" Guo Yi, who was about to leave with Zhou Buyi, was suddenly stopped and asked curiously.

It was not the first time that Sima Yi couldn't help but dim his eyes when he heard that voice that was immature but still resembling an old friend uttered the polite title of "Mr. Sima" again.

Guo Yi is very similar to his father, from the facial features, the tone of the voice, to the interests of the character, even the curves evoked by every frown and smile, they all seem to be carved out of the same mold as his father.But in the final analysis, they are not the same person after all.Guo Yi, who grew up under almost all aspects of Cao Cao's protection, compared with his father, in his cleverness and cunning, he has much more innocence that only a person who is loved by thousands of people can raise.

"Your father..." Sima Yi paused when the words came to his lips.He didn't know how to express the strange emotions in his heart, not to mention that Cao Pi and Zhou Buyi were still here, so the situation was inappropriate.

"Yi actually knows what Mr. Sima is going to say." Guo Yi said, "Sir, when I saw Yi several times, he hesitated to speak, but he just wanted to ask why Yi has never been sad for a moment since his father passed away.

The reason is simple, because”

His smiling eyes still resembled his father very much.

"Father didn't die at all, so why should Yi be sad?"
