Chapter 1123 La Sima Yi on the Road
On July 29th of the fifth year of Xingping, Yang Xiu went straight into the room where Wei Kai was being held, and closed the door heavily.On the same day, Xi Zhicai lifted the curtain of Cao Cao's camp that seemed to block the world, and walked out leisurely with a hesitant smile on his face.

The sun outside the curtain is very bright, and the warm golden light of the sun shines on Nanpi City, the entire Jizhou, and the land of Youzhou without any bias—that place is the treasure land where the Ma family finally laid the cornerstone of victory.

However, in the next few days, Ma Chao, who had already walked to Lecheng County, Hejian County, did not feel how bright the sunshine he felt at this time.The sun was very hot that day, and what Ma Chao was completely thinking about was that the golden autumn and August were coming in a blink of an eye, and the season of corn harvest was coming soon.

All the wheat in June has been harvested. After Li Yan, Meng Da, Li Zihao and many Ma family officials contributed all their wisdom and hard work, the wheat was all sent to the frontline battlefield in Jizhou, which relieved the Ma family a little. To come close to profligate war gluttonous pressure.However, even if this season's corn can be harvested smoothly, Ma Chao knows that the Ma family is already struggling with overload.

After the White Wolf Mountain alliance, no matter how the war situation changed, Ma Chao would give an order to withdraw his troops.What is undisputed is that if the White Wolf Mountain League is successfully completed, then the Ma family will have achieved the expected victory on the Jizhou battlefield.All the squandering and paying are worth it.

As a result, Ma Chao didn't want any further changes in the White Wolf Mountain League, and any unstable factors must be tightly controlled in his own hands.Because of this, Ma Chao stopped in front of the Lecheng county government at this time, and even ordered Sima Yi and Brother Chou to follow him into the White Wolf Mountain to conclude an alliance. In Ma Chao's heart, Sima Yi was undoubtedly The most unsettling factor during this important alliance.

Of course, if Hedong Yangxiu progressed more smoothly, it would be more perfect.But Yang Xiu lost after all. Although Ma Chao did not expect to lose to Xi Zhicai, if it is inferred according to common sense, it is inevitable for Yang Xiu, who is training for the first time, to meet a veteran like Xi Zhicai.As a remedial measure, Ma Chao had to bring Sima Yi with him-although at this time, Ma Chao did not know whether Sima Yi had any connection with the Hedong conspiracy.

But when Sima Yi came out, there was a faint anger on his face that was not concealed at all. After meeting Ma Chao, he didn't even salute, and said directly: "My lord, why did you hand over the command of the Shadow of the River East to Ma Chao?" Yang Xiu?!"

Ma Chao never expected that Sima Yi would have a menacing expression when he saw this side of himself.Although he didn't care about Sima Yi's questioning at all, there was really no good reason for calling him to visit White Wolf Mountain for no reason this time.To put it bluntly, surveillance and control meant more. With this factor, Ma Chao couldn't help but paused for a moment in response to Sima Yi's hidden anger.

"My lord, do you know that my game is a series of comprehensive designs, and all the shadows have orders. Especially in the east side, I can definitely tell the lord that there are definitely big fish from the Cao family lurking in it! " Sima Yi saw that Ma Chao, who was dressed in soft brocade and looked like a jade man in the palace of heaven, didn't pay attention to him. Under his youthful vigor, he spoke even more aggressively.

"Little ant, have you forgotten who is in front of you?" A muffled voice came from behind, and then a big hand patted his shoulder lightly: "It seems that the master has not learned his lesson these days." You, your temper is growing."

Although what Brother Chou said was serious, his demeanor was not threatening.Rather than scolding Sima Yi, it was more like reminding Sima Yi.However, it seems that Sima Yi's resentment is really serious this time. He then angrily slapped the big hand on his shoulder from Brother Chou, and said in an angry way: "My lord is the master of the Ma family, and what you say is naturally as strong as gold and stone." , Caves run through mountains and rivers, but at the time of Hedong, the order was changed from day to day, such a trifling matter about power and responsibility, how could I be convinced, let alone there..."

"Xi Zhicai from Hedong may have already returned to Cao Ying by this time." Ma Chao, who was sitting on the elephant dragon horse, suddenly leaned over and stared at Sima Yi with burning eyes, those eyes were like two sharp knives, directly Pierce Sima Yi's fierce and introverted nature.Seeing that Sima Yi really felt guilty, Ma Chao sneered without a trace: "Besides, I have a hunch that the plan there is slowly starting bit by bit, and the evil results you directed have finally attracted Cao Cao's attention." Fight back."

Ma Chao never looked at Brother Chou from the beginning to the end, he knew that there was absolutely no doubt about Brother Chou's loyalty.Moreover, today's performance also let Ma Chao see that Brother Chou and Sima Yi have a pretty good relationship now-this is the highest level of Shadow Embankment's surveillance of the enemy. After the dagger in his hand, he understood Ma Chao's intentions in a short period of time, so he concealed and monitored him skillfully.

And Ma Chao deliberately did not make eye contact with Brother Chou, because he was worried that there would be unnatural and tacit feedback between the eyes of the two.Such revealing may be a dangerous signal to Sima Yi, a fine man—and the two of them obviously don't want to reveal such a signal now.

Fortunately, facing Ma Chao's sudden and strange stare, Sima Yi's defense suddenly loosened a bit, and he didn't notice the mysterious aura slowly flowing around him at all.What's more, he didn't expect that Ma Chao not only knew the identity of Cao's big fish lurking in Hedong, but also smelled the conspiracy in Hedong, which caught him off guard: "Master, lord, you already know this? ...Even if I hadn't acted first, Cao Cao would never have given up on the Ma family!"

What Sima Yi said in the first half of the sentence seemed a bit unreasonable, but he quickly realized that Ma Chao's sudden gaze was strange, and gradually increased his volume to counter Ma Chao's sudden temptation.And after that, he even smiled cleverly, with a bit of teasing, and asked again: "My lord's mood seems a little abnormal today..."

This light sentence, like a gust of damp cold wind, rose from Ma Chao's ankle.Ma Chao realized that he was still too strong and exposed his distrust of Sima Yi too early.At this time, Sima Yi's seemingly casual but secretly guessing figure was like a sharp blade of speech that was stabbed lightly and without track, so Ma Chao had to respond quickly and accurately.

After all, it has been so long since time travel, and he has been in charge of the huge family for several years.At this moment, Ma Chao's state of mind and reaction are no longer the same as the agricultural base station technician who would reveal his heart when encountering a one-star problem. He faced Sima Yi and suddenly laughed—even though he didn't know what he was laughing at at this time. , but he knew that this kind of inexplicable laughter would easily disrupt the enemy's aura.

"Little ant, I think you are a little aggressive today." After a smile, Ma Chao quickly mastered the countermeasures in just a few seconds.Indeed, his sudden transformation turned his previous intentional gaze into a joke for the superior to tease his subordinates.

It was like Sima Yi thrusting a sword, Ma Chao didn't block it at all, instead he avoided the blade and attacked suddenly.At this time, Sima Yi naturally did not have time to consider the authenticity of Ma Chao's probing. He had to find the most abnormal reason for his most normal reaction.

"Of course I'm afraid that the lord will blame me for sacrificing the shadows of the three elites of the Ma family, so..."

"So, just like you did with Cao Cao, you gave me a preemptive strike?"

Sima Yi nodded, then smiled.And Ma Chao also smiled slightly.In the end, even the ugly brother behind the two of them smiled for some reason—it seems that this meeting turmoil is over like this?
"Get on the horse, let's go. I will settle this messy account for you when I return to Chang'an." Sure enough, Ma Chao rode his horse and started the process of continuing the White Wolf Mountain. Then get on the horse.This important seat, which was once a strategic stronghold of Ma Cao, is no longer fortified.Under the venomous sunshine, only the less prominent county government office still showed a somewhat majestic and mighty aura.

But Sima Yi, who was walking between Ma Chao and Brother Chou, couldn't help but roll his eyes a few times—Ma Chao and Brother Chou moved their positions unintentionally, as if they wanted to spy on him... Could it be that Ma Chao has already smelled himself? Unusual smell?
