Sima Yi's Three Kingdoms Collection Collection

Chapter 386 Defeating Cao Shuang, Sima Yi monopolizes power (3)
While he was speaking, Sima Yi seemed to be a little afraid of the cold. While listening, he shrank his neck and pointed to the maidservant to cover him with the fox fur soft cover on his waist and legs.While the maidservant was busy, the felt blanket on his body slipped to the ground again.This time, it seemed that he was shivering from the cold, out of breath, and coughing like a heart-piercing lung.In a panic, the servants hurriedly picked up the felt blanket and put it on him, and then gradually stopped his coughing and panting.

Sima Yi gave Li Sheng a wry smile in embarrassment, opened his mouth, showing his broken teeth, pointed his finger at his mouth, and said "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" a few times, signaling to the maid that he was thirsty.

The maidservant on the left brought a bowl of light porridge.Sima Yi seemed unwilling to have them come and feed him in front of the guests, so he tried his best to hold the porridge bowl with both hands, but his fingers were still trembling violently, the bowl couldn't reach his mouth no matter what Finally, his hands softened, the porridge bowl tilted, and the porridge still spilled out, wet a large area of ​​his corset.The maidservants hastily brought towels to wipe him clean, but he lay down slumped, moaning on the bedside, as if he was complaining about his old age and weakness.

Li Sheng saw this situation in his eyes, and couldn't help saying: "Master Tai Tuo! You must cherish it! Now that the Lord is young, and Master Tai Tuo, you are the pillar of the society and the world depends on... I I used to think that you should be well taken care of, Mr. Taifu, but I never expected that your body would decline to this point."

At this moment, Sima Yi raised his head tremblingly, and after listening for a long time with his ears, he said slowly, "My lord? Does your lord miss me very much? Sigh... I am old and sick, thinking that the days to come are numbered." Yes. Your Majesty is assisted by General Cao. I look very good. Oh, by the way, Li Jun, you just said that you are going to serve in Bingzhou? Bingzhou is close to the Xiongnu and Wuhuan. They are chaotic by nature. Be careful!"

Hearing that his words were confused, Li Sheng hastily raised his voice and emphasized: "The place where Li takes office this time is not Bingzhou, but Li's hometown——Jingzhou!"

"What?" Sima Yi didn't seem to hear clearly. He narrowed his eyes and looked at him for a while, then murmured to himself according to his own thoughts: "Oh... so you have just been to Bingzhou? Why, you are right Got a headache there?"

Li Sheng thought to himself, this Sima Yi must be a little deaf, right?Even "Jingzhou" and "Bingzhou" can't understand!So he shouted again: "Li is going to Jingzhou, not Bingzhou!"

He yelled these words so loudly that the two servants were startled.Sima Yi stopped muttering to himself, stared blankly at Li Sheng, turned his dizzy old eyes a few times, and then seemed to suddenly realize it after a long while, and answered in a low voice, embarrassedly saying: "I heard you clearly, I heard you clearly." ——It turns out that you are going to Jingzhou to be a shepherd and guard! Jingzhou...Jingzhou seems to be your hometown? He is very savage, and there are always smoldering police, you must not be careless..." After talking, his thoughts jumped to the "Youzhou" again.Li Sheng heard that his words were full of mistakes, and he didn't bother to correct anything, so he followed his words and responded perfunctorily.

Just as the saying goes: "There are many old roots in a tree, and there are many old sayings in people." Sima Yi took Li Sheng's hand, and chattered indiscriminately from east to west, from east to west, from east to west, from east to west, from east to west, intermittently, and sometimes vaguely. Forgot, guessed randomly for a while, and then suddenly shouted, as if startled.Li Sheng was dizzy and said "ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", it was extremely uncomfortable.

After half an hour finally passed, Li Sheng also lost the last bit of patience, held Sima Yi's hands tightly, and said in tears: "Master Tai Tuo! Your earnest teachings today, Li will always keep in mind. Taifu, you must take good care of yourself and keep quiet. Your health and well-being, Taifu, is not only our sincere hope, but also closely related to the prosperity of our great Wei society! Let’s do this——Li will not bother you anymore I'm taking a break, so I'm leaving!"

Hearing the servant girl next to him explaining with pictures for a while, Sima Yi finally understood the general idea, shook his head and sighed: "Oh! I am deaf and dazzled, and Mr. Li is laughing at all kinds of gaffes! It would be great if my master and Zhaoer could have you, Mr. Li, who is as steady and stable as you! In the future, in case of my death, I hope you, Mr. Li, will not hesitate to support my master and Zhaoer. If this is the case, I will die with peace in my eyes!"

Li Sheng's hand was firmly held by him, so he could only nod his head repeatedly: "What is the Taifu saying? Li will be a gentleman with Ziyuan and Zishang forever! Don't worry too much, Taifu. It's better to have a good rest! Li really can't continue to bother you..."

The sound of Li Sheng's footsteps finally faded away from outside the house.Inside the abode, it returned to the silence like a pool of autumn water.

Sima Yi panted and waved his hands: "You all get back down! I want to be alone for a while."

The servants and servants immediately tidied up everything and retreated out after hearing the words.Sima Yi was half lying in this empty room, lost in deep thought.

"Father..." Brother Sima's low voice seemed to come from far away.Sima Yi suddenly opened his eyes, two sharp sword-like cold lights pierced Sima Master and Sima Zhao couldn't help but shudder!
"Alas... so many years have passed, and my father has never performed as vividly as today!" Sima Yi withdrew his stern gaze and looked at the roof, "Speaking of which, the last time I performed like this was more than 40 years ago. What about before... At that time, even their great ancestor Wu Emperor Cao Cao was blinded by his acting skills as a father, not to mention this stupid Li Sheng today!"

"My lord father! You are really incompetent, you are so honored and precious, and you are humiliated by pretending to be sick and acting foolishly in front of Li Sheng... It is really unfilial for you!" Sima Shi Sima Zhao and Sima Zhao couldn't help kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly.

Sima Yi watched the two of them quietly, with a calm expression on his face, and slowly said: "What? You guys also know that this is a great shame? Shi'er, Zhao'er, in front of my father today In front of all the people in the world, I'm here pretending to be sick and acting stupidly. Do you think it's for what? It's so that one day, everyone in my Sima family can feel proud, hold their heads high, and hold their heads high. You don’t need to play such ugly dramas anymore! When you are slack in building a foundation and expanding your business in the future, remember more about this extremely humiliating performance that your father made in this room today! In this way, maybe You will be able to realize your shame and be brave..."

Brother Sima touched his forehead to the ground, whimpered and did not answer.

"That's all! Don't cry anymore! Hurry up and make arrangements. Within ten days, let Wang Guan, Gao Rou, Sun Zi, Liu Fang, Guo Zhi, He Zeng, Wang Su and others sneak into the I am from Sima's mansion, because my father wants to give them opportunities one by one, and plan ahead for our Sima family's final victory of 'Flying Nine Heavens, Turning the World Around'!" Sima Yi's voice at this moment has become as sonorous and powerful as the sound of gold and iron. .

"Hey! The general said earlier that you were worrying too much, but you still don't believe me!"

After Cao Shuang listened to Li Sheng's detailed report on spying on Sima Yi's condition, he said to Ding Mi and He Yan on the spot: "Listen to Li Jun's report. , can’t lift the bowl when drinking porridge, is too weak to wear clothes, and the time of death is just around the corner! How can you pose a threat to us? You guys are just afraid of this and that, you are really cowardly!”

Ding Mi ignored his sarcasm, and still muttered: "Could it be that Sima Yi is really terminally ill and dying? Ding always feels a little unreliable. Well, when will Ding personally come to spy on him again?" Fan..."

"Ding Jun! What are you talking about? Are you saying that you don't believe that Mr. Li came to the Taifu's mansion this time to spy?" Li Sheng was very unhappy when he heard this, and shouted, "Although Mr. Li is not as good as you Mr. Ding is very resourceful, but his eyes are not blind. Whether he is pretending to be sick or really sick, Li is confident that he can still tell the difference!"

He Yan waved his sleeves and persuaded them both: "Li Jun, Ding Jun didn't mean that. Ding Jun, He also asked Ji Kang to quietly go to Ruan Ji's side to inquire about Sima Yi's condition. Ruan Ji is doing something wrong now. Is it the secretary of the Taifu's mansion? He also said that Sima Yi is now "a dead body, his body and spirit have been separated, and his life is in danger"..."

"Is Ruan Ji's words credible?" Ding Mi asked hesitantly, "Although Ruan Ji has always regarded himself as a 'sage in the bamboo forest', he is now an official in the Sima Mansion, so I'm afraid he may not say anything to Ji Kang and the others. The truth..."

"Hey! You Ding Mi! You doubt Li Jun's words, and you don't believe Ruan Ji's words, so you should go and see for yourself if you have the chance!" Cao Xun said impatiently, "But you Ding family and Sima family There has been a feud since the time of Emperor Wen. Will Master Sima and Sima Zhao welcome you to visit? Forget it! Forget it! As long as you know that Mr. Sima is seriously ill, why do you have to go to other people's house? Let’s bring shame on ourselves? Let’s discuss more about holding the Xiandi’s Ten Years Great Sacrifice Ceremony at Gaoping Mausoleum on the sixth day of the first lunar month!”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Cao Shuang slapped himself on the forehead, and asked Yang Zong, the director of the General's Mansion who was sitting in the side seat, "Master Yang, how are you preparing for this matter?"

"General, under the guidance of Mr. He and Mr. Deng, Yang has rehearsed all the ceremonies and activities of the ten-year grand ceremony of the late Emperor Gaoping Mausoleum." Yang Zong cupped his hands and answered, "The most important thing The important auspicious miracle of "six zhis with the same root, Fengquan emerges", Mr. Guan Ren and Mr. Yu Songjun have also completed the on-site investigation and processing of the mausoleum. According to the arrangement of the ceremony, the general and your five virtuous brothers will be lined up in the hundred Before the official, he offered incense to the late emperor. Then Mr. Guan Ren twisted the mechanism in the dark, and the auspicious miracle of "six zhis with the same root, abundant springs emerge" will suddenly appear. After the accompanying priests witness the auspicious omen of this day, they will I respect you even more, General, you are the minister of the Duke of Zhou who is destined to return."

"Good! Good! Good!" Cao Shuang stroking his beard and laughing endlessly, "My lords here, after I become a minister of the Duke of Zhou, I will never forget all your contributions."

"General, Deng has another matter to present. In order to prevent the ten-year grand ceremony of Gaoping Mausoleum from being opposed by some old-fashioned officials, Deng's opinion is that Taiwei Jiang Ji, Situ Gaorou, and Shang Shuling Sima Fu, former Zhongshu Ling Sun Zi, former Zhongshu Supervisor Liu Fang, Wei Wei Guo Zhi, Taichang Wang Su and others do not need to participate. It will prevent them from making a fuss and making a lot of noise at the ceremony!" Deng Yangjin said Said, "We just need to let His Majesty and most of the courtiers witness the auspicious miracle of 'six mushrooms with the same root, and abundant springs emerge' appearing on the spot..."
