Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 660 This son is amazing! (4000)

"Please, Mr. Wu."

Seeing that Wu Liang agreed, the smile on Sima Lang's face became wider, and he immediately made a gesture of invitation, inviting him to go with the Sima family.

"Please, eldest son."

Wu Liang also made a gesture of invitation, and then walked side by side with Sima Lang.

But the people of the Huan army, Cao Chun and others silently followed behind.

Especially Cao Chun, who was walking close to Wu Liang's side and behind him, with one hand secretly holding his weapon all the time to prevent the Sima family from plotting.

He is indeed worthy of being a qualified guard, at least as diligent as Dian Wei.

However, Wu Liang also knew that he was actually only carrying out Boss Cao's orders. Even if he had a little disagreement with Wu Liang before, he would still insist on completing his task without being affected by personal emotional factors.

In this way, he came to the side of Sima's family.

Wu Liang had noticed early in the crowd the middle-aged man who was standing as the leader, and he knew the identity of this person without guessing. He must be Sima Fang, the current head of the Sima family.

And behind Sima Fang.

Then there are seven young men standing in a situation where the stars are holding the moon. The older one looks similar to Sima Lang who went to invite Wu Liang in person just now, while the younger one should be only about ten years old and can be classified as a child. category.

But even the few seemingly young children, at the moment, looked respectful, not as unrestrained and happy as ordinary children.

This is the tutor of the Sima family.

This matter was also recorded in the history books. Sima Fang's discipline on these heirs was so strict that even after they were weak adults, they still had to do "If you don't order, you dare not enter; if you don't order, you don't dare to sit; if you don't order, you don't dare to sit; To the extent that you don’t dare to speak up when you ask questions”, there is quite a bit of militarized family management.

But at this moment, Wu Liang and others came over.

In addition to the seven young men staring at Wu Liang, Sima Fang's majestic face with deep decree lines also showed a smile on his own initiative to express his welcome.

"I have seen Senior Sima, and when I passed by Wen County, the younger generation was not only impressed by the prestige of the Sima clan, but also often heard about the honesty and integrity of the senior. It is a pity that the younger generation knows that their status is low, so they dare not go to visit and bother them. The younger generation is really flattered to be so favored."

Wu Liang didn't hold back either, just approached some people and took the initiative to give a junior salute to Sima Fang, bowing his eyebrows pleasingly.

"What's the matter? It's a troubled time now, and it's not easy to keep yourself safe. There's no prestige. The Sima family is just not too implicated for the time being. It's not known what it will look like tomorrow. .”

Sima Fang smiled, waved his hands modestly, and then said, "I heard that Mr. Wu came from Leling, Pingyuan, but what happened to the family?"

"Not at all..."

Speaking of this, Wu Liang suddenly showed a look of hesitation, and finally lowered his voice and said, "...Senior, I don't know, because Leling is located at the intersection of Yanzhou and Jizhou, and the nearby At that time, the Chief Yuan of Jizhou and the Inspector Cao of Yanzhou were already at war, and if the two sides started, Leling would be the first to bear the brunt, so the younger generation had no choice but to leave their hometown in order to seek self-protection."

"Well... I have heard about this matter, and I have seen the call to action issued by Leader Yuan a few days ago."

Sima Fang nodded slightly, as if he had accepted Wu Liang's words.

"That's right, there are no eggs under a nest. If League Leader Yuan and Inspector Cao really go to war, the younger generation will definitely be affected if they stay in Leling. The best policy is to walk."

Wu Liang cupped his hands and said.

"Mr. Wu is also a hero who is good at judging the situation."

Sima Fang smiled indifferently, and then said, "This is not a place to talk. If Mr. Wu doesn't dislike it, you can follow me back to the mansion first. I will order people to prepare wine and food to cleanse Mr. Wu and his party. It will not be too late to speak freely."

"Originally, the etiquette that should be given to visit the door is indispensable. Unfortunately, the younger generation is away now, and there is really nothing that can be offered to repay the kindness of the senior. Seniors, please don't take it to heart if you are so rude. The younger generation has been treated by the senior. Hospitality, this kindness will be remembered in my heart, and he will repay it every day."

Wu Liang bowed his hands again and said politely.

"Don't be too polite, please."

Sima Fang also smiled and made a gesture of invitation, and temporarily stopped the conversation.

"Thank you senior..."

So Wu Liang couldn't say anything more.

Originally, he wanted to extract some useful information from Sima Fang here, especially Sima Fang's intention to invite him to his residence this time.

It's a pity that Sima Fang's words were always secretive, and he was not given any chance at all.

In this case, naturally, we can only take one step at a time.

Fortunately, with Cao Chun and Tiger and Leopard riding by to guard, and Yanshi and Boss Cao's army commanding the battle, he had some confidence in his heart and wasn't too worried about what the Sima family might do to him.

In this way, he walked behind the Sima family and his party.

Wu Liang was still watching them secretly, especially the eight sons of Sima Fang.

He wanted to identify "Sima Yi" among the eight sons in advance, but unfortunately, apart from Sima Lang who had spoken to him just now, there were three other people who seemed to be about the same age, and the difference in appearance was not too big. It's really hard to tell the difference.

Also.

People in the Sima family, especially males, also have one characteristic in common, that is - tall.

Sima Fang himself has a stature close to 1.8 meters, which is definitely considered tall in this era, and standing in front of ordinary people has a considerable sense of oppression.

As for his eight sons, apart from the young children, the remaining ones are adults or are close to adults, all of them are tall and tall, and their genes are indeed better than Boss Cao's family.

After all, Boss Cao himself is not tall.

And his eldest son, Cao Ang, is only 1.6 meters [-] now. At this age, he should not grow any longer in the future. He must bow his head in front of the Sima family.

But in fact, this is not short, at least in the late Han Dynasty, this height has actually exceeded the average standard.

at the same time.

Wu Liang also felt the Sima family's rules again.

Among the Sima family's group, apart from "Sima Bada", there were also some accompanying female relatives, and then the guards and servants.

While these people were walking, no one whispered to each other, and they seemed to have to pay attention to their identities and positions every step of the way. From high to low, from big to small, from male to female, no one changed easily Even if someone accidentally walks faster, they will immediately slow down and wait.

On the other hand, the people in the Huan army are much more casual than they are. It can even be said that there are no rules at all, no distinction between high and low, senior and young, and they can walk as they want...

……

So it went all the way to Sima Mansion.

Wu Liang never figured out who Sima Yilai was, but locked him in a range of only three people based on the historical information he knew.

In this way, he entered the mansion.

Wu Liang and others were taken to the living room first, while Sima's family only left Sima Lang to accompany them in the living room, and the rest had their own places to go. It was said that they were all preparing to entertain Wu Liang.

of course.

Not all Wu Liang and his party were brought into the living room together.

That is to say, the backbone of the Tuan army and the guard Cao Chun, who are suspected to be Wu Liang's family, stayed. They, they are not eligible to participate in the upcoming family dinner.

"Mr. Wu, everyone, moisten your throat with some tea first. On the way back just now, I have sent someone back to prepare food and drinks in advance. I'll go and see how the preparations are going. I'll be back later."

After inviting Wu Liang and others to their seats, Sima Lang said to Wu Liang again.

"Okay, please."

Wu Liang wished he could leave, so he returned the courtesy with a smile.

"Then I'll go."

Sima Lang smiled, turned and left.

At this moment, the people in the Huan army were a little more at ease, and then Zhuge Liang stood up and walked to Wu Liang, and whispered with some doubts: "Brother Youcai, although I don't know the purpose of the Sima family inviting us to the mansion. , but they were so polite and hospitable before, which makes me wonder if they have something to ask of you."

"But the members of the Sima family have never met the young master before, and they don't know what the young master is capable of. It's hard to make a request for something, right?"

Yang Wanli asked in a daze.

"Knowing small etiquette does not necessarily mean great righteousness. This old man thinks that when things go wrong, there must be demons. If there is nothing to show courteousness, it is either adultery or robbery."

Yu Ji also expressed his opinion, then turned his head to look at Cao Chun beside him, moved his buttocks to get closer to him, wrinkled his old face and said, "This time Dian Wei is not here, I always feel a little uneasy in my heart." , General Cao, our safety rests entirely on you alone."

"..."

Cao Chun glanced at him, expressionless and silent, not knowing what was going on in his mind.

"Shh!"

Wu Liang also made a silent gesture to prevent everyone from talking too much.

Then he winked at Prince Chamu again.

"..."

Prince Chamu understood and shook his head slightly, meaning that he had never seen anything unusual on the way from meeting with members of the Sima family to entering Sima's mansion.

"Jingjing?"

Wu Liang looked at Bai Jingjing again.

"..."

Bai Jingjing also shook her head, but she didn't hear anything worth noting.

"Mi'er?"

Finally Wu Liang looked at Zhen Mi.

"..."

Zhen Mi also shook her head, saying that there was nothing unusual about the faces of the people recently, at least there was no obvious evil spirit like Dian Wei's before.

Wu Liang fell into silence.

In such a situation where he didn't know what the Sima family's purpose was, Wu Liang was naturally a little uneasy.

If this matter has nothing to do with Lu Bu.

Then he also has reason to suspect that the Sima family's inexplicable invitation to him may have the most direct relationship with their appearance near "Zi Shui" and "Mother Shui". A secret that the Sima family does not want to be known to outsiders.

And in order to keep this secret, the Sima family invited him to the mansion to try it out.

Therefore, Wu Liang had already started to think about how to deal with Sima's temptation in advance.

Is it better to pretend to be stupid the whole time and pretend not to know?

Or use other more ingenious ways to gain the trust of the Sima family, so that instead of worrying about it, they are even willing to use it for themselves, so that they can get some news about Wen County and Lu Bu from them.

After all, the Sima family has lived in Wen County for hundreds of years.

They must have known every plant and tree in Wen County well. If Wen County really had any secrets that could change Lu Bu overnight, the Sima family would be the most likely to explain it clearly.

Previously, Wu Liang taught Yang Wanli to keep a low profile because he didn't want to provoke the Sima family for the time being. After all, they were not easy to provoke.

But now, Wu Liang had inevitably entered the Sima family's sight, so naturally there was nothing to think about, so the approach could be a little more radical.

The worst result is nothing more than a complete rift with the Sima family, and they have to move Boss Cao out to frighten them... Based on Wu Liang's understanding of the Sima family, whether it is Sima, the current head of the family who "raises Zhilu Lane and keeps the door behind him", Fang, or Sima Yi who later laid the foundation for the Sima family to usurp Wei, their temperament will definitely not allow the Sima family to take the risk of angering Boss Cao to their own and Cao Chun's disadvantages.

When thinking about it like this.

"Mr. Wu, everyone, I have taught you to wait for a long time. I am rude and rude."

Sima Fang had already changed into more comfortable casual clothes and walked into the living room. His wife was beside him, and "Sima Bada" who had met before was following behind.

At the same time, some maids and servants came in with some dishes, wine and meat.

"Senior, don't say that again, it's even more impolite for me to come here empty-handed."

Wu Liang hurriedly got up to apologize, and all the people in the Huan army and Cao Chun also stood up and apologized to Sima Fang.

"Take a seat, Mr. Wu and all of you, please take your seats."

Sima Fang smiled and waved his hands, and he and his wife finally arrived at the main seat.

And "Sima Bada" behind him also stopped before their respective cases, but the guests like father Sima Fang and Wu Liang hadn't been seated yet, they just stood and waited obediently.

Also at this time.

The order of "Sima Bada" was finally clarified in front of the order of the cases, and Wu Liang naturally determined which of the eight brothers was Sima Yi based on this detail.

It was a tall young man with a fair complexion, his figure was slightly thin, and the beard around his lips hadn't fully grown yet. Currently, he could only see two pinches of barely visible black marks, and there were still some red spots on his cheeks and forehead. The pimples in the past seem to have the same mental outlook as the high school students in later generations.

then.

"Oh? This young man is amazing!"

Wu Liang made a pre-emptive strike, and suddenly showed surprise, pointing at Sima Yi and shouting.
