Cao Liang can't expect Bai Lingyun to know Sima Yi's latest movements, after all, even if Bai Lingyun is Sima Yi's favorite concubine, it is impossible to reach the point of being at ease with Sima Yi.

So what Cao Liang needs Bai Lingyun to provide, is some abnormal behavior of Sima Yi and Sima Mansion's unusual behavior, after all, Bai Lingyun lives in Sima Mansion, she can learn about the latest trends in Sima Mansion, if Bai Lingyun can faithfully provide information, it is equivalent to Cao Liang has an extra pair of eyes in Sima Mansion.

"The Sima family has a lot of dead soldiers, how much do you know about this situation? Where are these dead men hiding? "Three thousand dead soldiers are the capital of Sima Yi's uprising, but unfortunately Cao Liang has been watching for many years, and he can't find out where these dead soldiers are hiding, if he can eliminate this team, it is equivalent to breaking off Sima Yi's wings, he can only flutter on the ground, and has no chance to fly again.

Bai Lingyun said: "The affairs of the dead man have always been handled by Sima Shi, and no one else in Sima Mansion has a chance to interfere. But if you want to ask how many of these dead soldiers are and where they are hiding, I really don't know this, Sima Shi's tone is very tight, and others have no way of knowing. The reason why Xiahou Hui was poisoned by Sima Shi back then was because Xiahou Hui had the secret of Sima Jia's raising dead soldiers, and was ready to tell Xiahou Xuan, so Sima Shi would kill the killer. In Sima's Mansion, the matter of the dead is absolutely taboo, and no one, whether in public or private, is not allowed to mention it, and if it is violated, there will be no forgiveness. ”

Cao Liang nodded, what Bai Lingyun said was indeed the truth, the matter of the dead man is a major matter related to the fate of the Sima family, once it is leaked, no matter whether the Sima family has rebelled or not, it is also a major crime of rebellion, so Sima Yi handed over the training of the dead soldier to his most trusted Sima Shi to manage, which is also completely in line with Sima Yi's consistent cautious character, not to mention a concubine like Bai Lingyun, even if it is Sima Yi's original wife Zhang Chunhua and Sima Zhao and other sons, they may not know.

"For so many years, you have been in charge of the Sima family's finances, haven't you seen any dead soldiers?"

Bai Lingyun smiled and said, "Of course I have seen it, not only I have seen it, but you have also seen it." ”

Cao Liang raised his eyebrows and said, "How do you say this?" ”

"You forgot, back then, in the Dragon Garden, there were a few assassins who assassinated you, that is, the dead soldiers sent by Sima Shi, I guess you won't forget this." Bai Lingyun said.

Of course, Cao Liang will not forget that the assassination attack can be said to be the most dangerous moment in his life, and if it were not for the help of a mysterious person, Cao Liang felt that he would not be spared.

As for the mysterious person, since that assassination, he has disappeared and has never appeared again, even if Cao Liang tried his best to find it, there was no news.

Maybe this mysterious person has always been by his side to protect him, but because Cao Liang has never encountered danger, he has not shown up.

No matter what the origin of this mysterious man is, why he wants to protect himself, and what his purpose is, Cao Liang is grateful to him, he is like a protective god, silently guarding his own safety, only paying, no return.

As for those assassins, they also left a deep impression on Cao Liang, their skills are indeed extraordinary, Cao Liang speculated that these assassins should be from the dead soldiers raised by the Sima family, of course, these assassins are at least the elite among the dead soldiers, and their strength is at least higher than that of ordinary dead soldiers.

But this is enough to prove that the strength of the Sima family's dead soldiers is terrifying, far beyond the ordinary army, and it is no wonder that it can become Sima Yi's biggest reliance on the world, with three thousand dead soldiers to break through Luoyang, Sima Yi finally completed a reversal that seems to be incredible.

Cao Liang pondered for a moment and said, "Then where do you think Master Sima will hide these dead soldiers?" ”

Bai Lingyun said without thinking: "Thousands of dead soldiers usually have to be trained, so they will definitely not hide in Luoyang City, and the east and south of Luoyang are densely populated, and the household registration control is strict, and it is impossible for thousands of people to gather, so only the mountain in the north is the only possible foothold." ”

Cao nodded and said: "Yes, if the dead soldiers of the Sima family want to hide, they can only hide in Beibi Mountain, but unfortunately Beibi Mountain is hundreds of miles away, and it is even more difficult to find these thousands of people than to find a needle in a haystack." ”

Regarding the hiding place of the dead soldiers, Cao Liang was deliberately testing Bai Lingyun, with Bai Lingyun's intelligence, it was expected that it would not be difficult for Sima Shi to hide these dead soldiers in Beibi Mountain, if she was sincere to make an inside line for herself, she would definitely tell this guess, if her heart was still towards the Sima family, she would probably not reveal the truth.

Now it seems that Bai Lingyun is very honest and frank, at least in this matter, he did not deliberately hide anything.

Cao Liang temporarily gave up the idea of chasing the dead, after all, this is the Sima family's biggest capital, if it can really be dug up easily, then Sima Yi is not called Sima Yi, he is scheming, risking being wiped out, cultivating such a dead soldier, just to seek to seize Cao Wei's country, and how can he easily stumble.

It takes a huge amount of money to cultivate dead soldiers, and in the past, Yipinju's huge profits every year flowed here, but since the defeat of Yipinju in the Wushisan market, the economy of the Sima family has fallen into a relative predicament, and when Cao Liang was in Hedong, he also cut off Yipinju's business of selling illicit salt, which can be regarded as an even worse blow to the Sima family's economy.

Bai Lingyun had been serving as the chief steward of Yipinju before, but due to the failure of Wushisan, she also lost Sima Yi's trust, and changed to a person named Hou Cheng to be the chief steward, and I don't know if the Sima family was replaced after the private salt case?

After the Hedong smuggling salt case, Cao Liang went north to merge with the state, and has been busy quelling the rebellion and defending against the enemy, and no longer cares about the operation of the Sima family, I don't know if the Sima family's economy has improved in the past few years, after all, if you want to maintain the operation of such a huge system, you can't do it without money.
