Three Kingdoms: The rebellion was eavesdropped by Cao Cao

Chapter 814

Sima Yi looked at Cao Pi's flustered appearance. He was practicing calligraphy without even raising his eyelids, and said calmly:
"My lord shouldn't have come to see me at this time!"

Cao Pi, on the other hand, seemed particularly anxious. He stepped forward with big strides and said excitedly:

"Sir, my uncle is so unscrupulous, he almost drove all the gentry to death, even me... I was affected, and so was my father, he actually exchanged all his property into Ruanmeibi, isn't this clearly supporting Cao Su?"

Sima Yi put down his pen, looked at him silently, then bowed respectfully and said:

"Young master, you shouldn't be disrespectful to your elders. If the prime minister finds out, I will also be punished together with you!"

However, Cao Pi completely ignored these things, waved his hand and said:
"Oh, there are no outsiders here, how can we not call his full name? As a junior, I have long been displeased with some of his behavior and style, and now it has affected the pattern of people in the world. Doesn't he know that now my father wants to Is stability the most important thing? He still made such a moth, if we go to war with Liu Bei in the spring of next year, how should we deal with the enemy?"

Sima Yi listened to his complaints, his expression remained calm from the beginning to the end, his hands were still clasped in front of his chest, and he said calmly:

"Liu Bei and Sun Quan also have a lot of gentry, and their influence is more serious than the prime minister, but this time, it can reflect a problem!"

Cao Pi was stunned, "What's the problem?"

Sima Yi said:

"The Prime Minister and Second Master Cao should be communicating in secret. I'm afraid they have already negotiated this plan in secret. The Prime Minister is deliberately following the hand of Second Master Cao to put pressure on the gentry!"

Cao Pi was puzzled immediately after hearing this, and said angrily:
"How could father do this? Doesn't he know that without the support of these gentry before, how could he have been able to sit on an equal footing with the princes of the eighteen towns, how could he have been able to sit in this position of prime minister? He is repaying his revenge!"

But as soon as these words came out, Sima Yi shot him a sharp look, "Stop talking nonsense!"

Cao Pi was dumbfounded by his scolding!

No, I was talking for you, why did you scold me for coming?
Sima Yi ignored Cao Pi's bewilderment, and continued to say seriously:
"The prime minister is doing things, how can I speak recklessly? He must have his reasons for doing so. The gentry have acted recklessly over the years, and should have been beaten long ago. The prime minister's behavior should be in accordance with the law of heaven!"

Hearing this, Cao Pi's face became even more confused, he stared blankly at Sima Yi and murmured:

"Sir, you are also a noble..."

"Of course I know!"

Sima Yi sonorously said: "Because my Sima family is also a gentry, so I know that the things that the gentry have done over the years have caused many people to share their anger. The prime minister can make such a decision, it is really a wise king!"

Cao Pi: ...

Listening to Sima Yi's self-harm, Cao Pi felt a little speechless!
But for some reason, listening to Sima Yi's words, he felt inexplicably at ease!
After all, as a son of the gentry, now he turns to criticize the deeds of the gentry angrily. In the eyes of someone like Cao Pi who will inherit the big position in the future, it is an expression of absolute loyalty!

And Sima Yi just dispelled the last doubt he had about the Sima family in his heart, and then asked:

"Then sir... dare to ask me what should I do now? Please teach me, sir!"

When Sima Yi saw that Cao Pi no longer spoke ill of Cao Cao's back, the expression on his face eased a lot, and then he pondered for a long time before saying:

"Young Master, what you have to do now is to fully support what the Prime Minister is going to do. Don't let him notice that you have the slightest dissatisfaction with his decision, otherwise, all the previous efforts will be wasted!"

Cao Pi nodded after hearing this, "I understand sir, but... sir, I still want to ask you to come out to help me and be my staff. It's too conspicuous to come to you every now and then, especially now that you are so sensitive. period..."

Before finishing speaking, Sima Yi interrupted:
"If you go to the son's house at this time, it will be called conspicuous, son, some things are not as simple as you see. The reason why the prime minister turned a blind eye to your visit to me is to make him feel at ease. I also want to use you to test whether I have the heart to become an official, so let's not mention the matter of leaving the mountain!"

Cao Pi was puzzled and asked:

"Why not? Now my father is lacking patience, and my husband has great talent, so why can't I come to work for my father? Besides, my father has expressed his attitude long ago, and wants to let my husband teach me?"

Hearing this, Sima Yi just smiled lightly, "Although the prime minister wanted me to teach you, young master, at that time it was because the second master Cao and the eldest son were still there, and he just wanted to use it as a trade-off, but now the second master Cao You and Eldest Young Master have not left, if I continue to follow you, Young Master, I will be courting death!"

Cao Pi frowned, "Cao Su and my eldest brother have left, shouldn't my father focus more on me? Could it be that he is still thinking about my eldest brother?"

Sima Yi shook his head, then turned his gaze to the lake, and said indifferently:

"The king... will never let any of his subordinates dominate the family, even his own heirs. When the eldest son was still around, the prime minister could use him to check and balance you, but now that he has left, he can't say no It sounds nice, even you are the one he fears, he won't make you strong so easily, after all...the prime minister still has several sons!"

Hearing this, Cao Pi finally knew what was going on, and felt extremely depressed in his heart!

That was his biological father, who was so wary of him!

When his uncle Cao Su was in Xuchang, he didn't see that Cao Cao had too much defense against him!
Even being called Cao Su as the second lord, his father turned a blind eye!
You know, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers!
His father Cao Cao is notoriously suspicious in the world, but he is the only one who is not suspicious of Cao Su!

On the other hand, looking at him, he is still Cao Cao's own son, and he is so guarded against him, which makes him feel extremely unbalanced!

Why?
He, Cao Pi, is now the second eldest son of the Cao family. Although he is not as good as his younger brothers in terms of Wen Tao and Wu Lue, but...

He is good!
And for so many years, he has not made any principled mistakes, and has always been obedient to Cao Cao!
Why did my father treat me like this?
Thinking of this, Cao Pi's eyes turned slightly red, showing unprecedented unwillingness!
Maybe he didn't even notice it himself, but Sima Yi beside him sensed it. In his heart, there was a bewilderment that was quietly sprouting!
Inadvertently, the corner of Sima Yi's mouth raised an undetectable arc...
