The Legend of Pei Yuanqing of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 292
Sima Yi and his two sons soon came to Cao Cao. As soon as Sima Yi entered the hall, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him.

Sima Shi and Sima Zhao also knelt down and kowtowed at the same time, "I beg my lord to punish you!"

Cao Cao admires Sima Yi very much. Although he has set a deadline of seven days, he will not punish Sima Yi if he solves the case or not. Besides, the seven days have not yet come.

"What's the crime of Aiqing running around? Hurry up and get up!" Cao Cao walked down and gently helped Sima Yi up and said with a smile.

Sima Yi showed gratitude, "Thank you, my lord."

Then he said, "We tried our best to investigate the identity of the thief. Although there was no result, we have sent many generals, and now only a small number of them have not been found out. I believe the truth will be revealed in a few days. I am worried that the Lord will wait for you." I'm so anxious, I'm here to report the progress!"

Cao Cao was slightly surprised, and looked at Sima Yi differently. He thought Sima Yi was at a loss, and wanted to turn down the errand, but he was worried that he had waited for a long time, so he came here to report the news. reuse.

Cao Cao was very happy, and took Sima Yi's hand and said, "Almost missed a talent like Aiqing, God is kind to Cao Mengde, let me meet Aiqing"

Sima Yi was overjoyed in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on the surface, and said, "I have little talent and little learning, I only hope to serve my lord wholeheartedly with my modest strength, and I will have no regrets in this life!"

"Hahaha, okay, I will give you a chance to show off!" Cao Cao laughed.

Glancing at Sima Shi and Sima Zhao, Cao Cao said in admiration, "These must be your two sons. What a tiger father but no sons. They are all heroes. What are their positions now?"

Sima Yi's eyes lit up, and he said hastily, "My lord, they don't have official positions now. They just put on armor and followed to protect the humble officials for fear of my safety. They have learned martial arts from famous teachers since childhood, and their skills are not bad. They have long wanted to join the army." To serve the lord, but seeing them young and worried about their safety, I tried my best not to agree, please forgive me, lord!"

Cao Cao laughed and said, "That's the way it is, but how can such heroes not gallop on the battlefield? I will designate them as partial generals now, will Ai Qing not refuse? Hahaha, don't worry, just let them follow you, okay?"

Surprised and delighted, Sima Yi thanked him, "Thank you, my lord, for your kindness!"

He said to Sima Shi and Sima Zhao, "Why are you two standing still? Why don't you thank the lord!"

Sima Shi and Sima Zhao came to their senses from the shock, and they kowtowed in joy, "Thank you, my lord!"

"Okay, I'm optimistic about you!!" Cao Cao smiled and helped Sima Shi and Sima Zhao up.

Cao Cao said a few words of relief, and was about to return to his throne, but at this moment, following Sima Yi's personal guards, who had been kneeling on the ground since entering, one of them suddenly rushed up, extremely fast, Pulling out the long sword like lightning, the sword shot with a cold light, directly stabbing Cao Cao's back.

Cao Cao was about to be stabbed in the blink of an eye, and everyone had no time to react. They were either far away or still in shock. Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan were so anxious that their throats were almost in their throats. Cao Ren and Cao Hong's eyeballs almost popped out. Everyone His breathing became short of breath, and some civil servants and counselors even fainted on the ground with their eyes darkened.

This is the rhythm of the sky falling!
"don't want!!!!"

"My lord!!!!"

The crowd only had time to shout, but it was too late. Seeing that Cao Cao was about to be assassinated to death, at this critical moment, a figure rushed over, "My lord, go!"

It turned out that Master Sima reacted the fastest, and used his body to block Cao Cao's sword at the critical moment.

Puff, the long sword pierced into Sima Shi's chest, Sima Master let out a scream, and grabbed the assassin's long sword tightly.

This assassin was Lu Ying who sneaked in. Lu Ying became shocked and angry, this damn Master Sima ruined his big event.

"Go to hell", pulled out his long sword forcefully, and kicked Sima Shi away. Lu Ying turned the tide and rushed to Cao Cao again, raising his sword to kill Cao Cao.

But Cao Cao had already reacted, his smile turned into panic, he ran away in a hurry and shouted, "Come on, block him, block him!"

Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun are masters after all, Cao Cao escaped a dangerous blow, and they had plenty of time to deal with the assassin.

The two drew their swords and rushed towards Lu Ying, and the three of them began to fight, and soon Lu Ying was captured, and the weapon was knocked to the ground.

When everyone saw the bodyguard clearly, they were all angry and confused. So, what's going on?How could there be a personal guard assassinating the lord Cao Cao?
Everyone was thinking hard, but they couldn't figure it out. Sima Yi was also thinking, and his mind felt blank.

Soon he felt that something was wrong, what happened, he brought in the bodyguard, and now there are assassins in the bodyguard, and almost assassinated Cao Cao, this crime is really serious, if you don't like him a little bit It can be said that Sima Yi deliberately instigated him.

And how about Master Sima?He was hit by a sword!Not daring to think too much, Sima Yi hurried to Sima Shi to check the situation. Sima Zhao should have torn off his clothes to help Sima Shi stop the bleeding, otherwise it would be even more dangerous.

Cao Cao also found out about Master Sima, because Master Sima blocked him with a sword, Cao Cao was angry with Sima Yi, but he also spent a lot of time, and ordered, "Come and take him down quickly to heal his wounds! He must be cured! "

"Yes!" Soon Sima Shi was helped down.

Sima Zhao also left with him, and Sima Yi stayed because he had to stay and the suspicion was too great.

Cao Cao gave Sima Yi a hard look first, then came down to Lu Ying in person, looked left and right carefully but couldn't see any clues, Cao Cao was even more puzzled, he didn't know this person, why did this person kill him?Was it really instigated by someone?But who will it be?

After pondering for a while, Cao Cao asked coldly, "Say, who are you? Why did you assassinate me?"

Lu Ying sneered, and spat at Cao Cao, "Hey, beast, don't you recognize me so soon? Have you forgotten the Peacock Liannu, the treasure of my ink sect?"

Cao Cao was stunned, looked at Lu Ying several times in disbelief, and exclaimed, "You are Lu Ying? Impossible, not like Lu Ying!"

Lu Ying sneered, "If you are like Lu Ying, can you sneak in? Didn't you disguise yourself when you were running for your life?"

"Hmph! I haven't seen you for a few days, but you've become eloquent. Just because of the peacock's crossbow, you went and came back to kill me?" Cao Cao snorted.

At this time, Cao Cao thought of something, pointed at Lu Ying and suddenly realized, "Could it be that you were the thief who turned forward and broke into the armory? You took away the peacock crossbow and blueprints?"

Lu Ying was waiting for Cao Cao to say this, and immediately admitted, "So what? Anyway, there are no peacocks in the world anymore!"

"What? You,,, you have destroyed those?" Cao Cao was furious, staring at Lu Ying.

"Damn,,, no, since you succeeded, why did you come to assassinate me to die? Are you tired of living?" Cao Cao suddenly calmed down after his anger, and asked Lu Ying.
