"It's so nice to have a family......." Sima Yi leisurely watched the ugly brother eat the delicate and fragrant stir-fry in front of him, and couldn't help but lose his appetite for the equally exquisite but always lacked a trace of flavor in front of him. He stretched out a bamboo chopstick, took a bite of ugly brother's food, put it in his mouth and chewed it, as if he was enjoying it.

The ugly brother is still the same, eating the loving lunch made for him by his beloved wife, and deliberately drinking a sip of rice wine, showing off at a glance.

"However, you guy is very strange today, guarding the family's wife and concubine, and you want to ask me for a drink. I'm a scholar, you are a dignified general of the Ma family, what is there to drink? Sima Yi grabbed another chopstick and the food in front of the ugly brother, but was blocked back by the ugly brother's chopsticks. And this action caused a trace of slyness to flash in Sima Yi's eyes: "Besides, I've never seen it, looking for someone to drink, and you have to bring your own food......

Sima Yi's words already had obvious spiding implications, but for the ugly brother of the Shadow Elder, it was too easy to dissolve. At the moment, he didn't even stop using chopsticks, muttering with a mouth full of food: "Do you envy those who have a family?" If you kid really don't understand why I hid from you, you go to a wine shop in Chang'an City and walk around, and you can just pull back a woman to live and know the pain of having a family. ”

Sima Yi looked at the ugly brother suspiciously, although he was too aware of the sticky and greasy relationship between men and women, but since he was a child, he saw that all his uncles and eldest brothers had a respectful attitude towards his beloved wife, and he knew that the reason for the ugly brother was reasonable. It's just that this time the question is back to the original point: "Why did General Huang find me?" ”

"No, why, because you haven't married yet." In the words of the ugly brother, Sima Yi had nothing to say. Seeing that Sima Yi still wanted to explore, the ugly brother smiled slightly, and changed the topic very treacherously: "Lord Sima, be brave, marrying a daughter-in-law is not completely without benefits, at least, this meal will be very delicious......."

"Forget it, those young ladies from big families...... I'd rather be like you say, and find a bearded girl before going to the wine shop. Seeing that he couldn't get half of the information from the ugly brother's mouth, Sima Yi was a little interested.

"Tsk, the taste is still very heavy. But it's no different, it's the same when you blow the lamp. ”

Sima Yi glared at the ugly brother and closed his mouth stupidly, he would never be the opponent of the ugly brother on this topic. I was trying to find a reason to get rid of the ugly brother, but an even more scoundrel voice came from outside the door: "Don't listen to the ugly brother's nonsense, marrying a daughter-in-law is not for any delicious meal, Lord Sima, at your age, you should also taste the joy of fish and water......."

The ugly brother almost squirted out a mouthful of rice in his mouth, he couldn't have imagined that his lord would teach his advisers like this. And Sima Yi was not surprised when he saw Ma Chaoda stepping inside, but a look of 'long overdue coming' flashed in his eyes.

Ma oversized and sat down, very casually exempting the two of them from saluting. Then he put his hand on his chin and stared at Sima Yi carefully. It looked quite interested, as if a flower had suddenly grown on Sima Yi's face.

Sima Yi was stared at by Ma Chao, but he knew in his heart what Ma Chao was looking for him. He frequently glanced at the ugly brother, hoping that the ugly brother could retreat. But the ugly brother just didn't leave, and it wasn't until Ma Chao seemed to think for a while and waved his hand that the ugly brother got up and left.

"Lord, I came here today, I guess it's going to be a showdown, right?" Sima Yi is very simple, he thinks that among smart people, it should be more straightforward.

"No, what's the showdown?" Ma Chao spread his hands: "I just came to see you." ”

Sima Yi was very deflated when he heard this, he looked as if he had given up, and said boredly: "Okay, the ugly brother hides from his daughter-in-law, and the lord also hides." From this point of view, women are really tigers, and I have become a feng shui treasure for refuge in disasters....... I just don't know when he will come to me to hide today. ”

"There's no way he's here, that guy doesn't deal with women, it's different from us good men." Ma Chao still smiled on his face, but his words already had a hint of coldness: "Such a guy who knows the heart of a woman is afraid that he is just using Cao Cao's daughter." ”

Sima Yi's eyes lit up, and from Ma Chao's words, he heard a very unusual taste: "The lord is saying that you and today's son have known each other for a long time?" ”

"Naturally, when I entered Chang'an, I conspired with him to kill Dong Zhuo." Ma Chao is still not leaking.

"Well, then I can tell the lord, you guessed right, I do have something to do with Your Majesty. The fake Shadow Tokens and Su Tie Blades used to assassinate Cao Cao were obtained from him. Moreover, the arrangement of infiltrating Cao Ying also had his participation. Seeing that Ma Chao looked like he was holding a pearl of wisdom, Sima Yi skipped the link of playing dumb riddles with Ma Chao and went straight to the point.

"Oh?" Ma Chao's expression gradually became solemn, he knocked lightly on the desk a few times, and then said: "In this way, Liu Xie's heart for completely holding power has never been extinguished?" ”

"This Weichen is not clear, but judging from the whole incident. My cooperation with him was beneficial to Liu Xie. Whether Cao Cao dies or not, he can hide behind the scenes and deal with it calmly. ”

"It's a pity that he underestimated Cao Cao, and he also underestimated you." Ma Chao interrupted Sima Yi's explanation, his handsome face revealed the seriousness and prudence that can only be found when he thinks wholeheartedly, and after carefully recalling the incident, he said guessfully: "Since you have never betrayed me, you must have left a lot of clues in this plan." If my guess is correct, your ultimate goal is to tear apart the solid alliance between Cao Cao and Liu Xie, so as to win the most favorable situation for the Ma family, right? ”

"Yes, that's what I planned." Sima Yi sighed, although the tacit understanding between the two broke the previous barrier as soon as they came up, but at the same time it brought another question to Sima Yi, a question that he had hidden in his heart for a long time and seemed to have the opportunity to tell at this time: "When I mixed into Cao Ying, I did everything possible to get involved with Gao Lan's Red Eagle Rider, as long as Cao Cao found this clue and followed the map, he could always find the shadow of Liu Xie behind the scenes." ”

Speaking of this, Sima Yi seemed to finally couldn't help it, and decisively stepped forward and asked, "It's just that I can't figure it out, why do you and Your Majesty value me so much?" And that phoenix pangtong - you asked the ugly brother to spy on me, but I accidentally learned from him that you put this person on the shadow watch list two years ago. ”

"In this way, you deliberately dragged the Red Eagle Rider, in fact, there is another purpose. It was to let Cao Cao Shunteng find out Pang Tong who was still lurking in Yuan Shao's camp at that time. From this, through the power of the shadows, I know why Liu Xie and I attach so much importance to the two of you? ”

"That's true, you must know that before I was conquered by Yuan Shao, Liu Xie had already secretly contacted me; When I came to visit Ma's house, I was only a fifteen-year-old boy, and I was still a deputy under Han Yan, a famous scholar in Jizhou, but you did everything possible to leave me behind. After saying this, Sima Yi stared at Ma Chao's eyes and said word by word: "Don't tell me, you both have the skill of face-to-face, and you can see at a glance that I will be the master of the world in the future?" ”

"Well, that's probably why." Ma Chao pursed his lips, and he didn't care about Sima Yi's little question: "Although you look so-so, you look at the wolf and look at the wolf, and your life is even more of a pegasus." Your Majesty and I just look at your talent, so we are chasing after you......"

"What about Pang Tong?" Sima Yi was so angry that he said angrily: "That guy's appearance can't be said to be the appearance of the emperor, right?" ”

"Oh, that may be that Your Majesty and I both want to see how ugly the ugliest person in the world can be......." Ma Chao was still a scoundrel, but obviously didn't want to continue the topic anymore: "Young man, there are some things, when you should know, you will naturally know, you haven't seen so many foxes in the Ma family, and no one has ever explored this issue?" ”

"But I always feel that the strangeness between you and Your Majesty today is the key to pacifying the whole world!" Sima Yi made a judgment in one sentence.

But Ma Chao sighed in his heart: This, you kid may really be right.......
