Chapter 331: Cao Zhizhi's Wisdom
Sima Yi, who originally bowed his head and was silent, thinking that this matter had nothing to do with him, suddenly heard Cao Zhi asking, raised his head in a hurry, and replied with a trembling body: "The fierce generals under the command of the lord are like clouds, and they can be sent to exterminate them, how can I be afraid of Liu Feng, Sun Quan and others?" ”
After that, he lowered his head deeply again, looked at the ground, and didn't know what he was thinking.
Cao Zhi looked at Sima Yi's demeanor, and couldn't help but snort coldly, raising his previously slightly soft voice a lot and said, "If Mr. Zhongda only has this ability to sing praises and virtues, how can he successfully persuade Brother Zihuan to give up gathering troops and horses to resist me that day?" Now that the Sima family, young and old, is safe and sound, and is holding the money of my Wei State, how can I agree if they can't work like this? ”
As soon as Cao Zhi said this, Sima Yi's originally low head lowered even more, but the civil and military forces on his side looked at him one after another, with different expressions on their faces, when Sima Yi helped Cao Zhi persuade Cao Pi, today is the first time that most of them have heard of it, if it is really like what Cao Zhi said, Sima Yi not only did not help Cao Pi deal with Cao Zhi at the critical moment, but persuaded Cao Pi to give up resistance, this kind of behavior is really more despicable than betraying the master, so that the attitude of these courtiers of Wei towards Sima Yi, Apparently more indifferent than before.
Cao Zhi's words are really a little ruthless to Sima Yi, but the meaning he wants to express is also very clear, that is, since you have taken refuge in me to protect your people, then if you are so perfunctory under my command, I still have the ability to put your people in danger again.
After Sima Yi heard this, although he still lowered his head, he was bitter in his heart, he knew that it was almost impossible for him to lie dormant for a while to make this matter down, Cao Zhi had already discovered his talent, so if he was still here to talk about him, Cao Zhi, who had Cao Cao's ruthless blood, would not really take advantage of his own brothers.
Thinking of this, Sima Yi finally raised his head slowly, although he still looked cowering, but his eyes were much clearer than before, he looked at Cao Zhi, who was looking at him for a long time, and then slightly adjusted his shirt and strode out of the ranks.
After looking at Cao Zhi for a long time, Sima Yi seemed to be thinking about something, and Cao Zhi was also very patient, and did not urge again, finally, Sima Yi seemed to have made up his mind, and replied softly: "If Yi expected it to be good, this matter has long been in the calculation of the lord, and now that the king of Wei has passed away these days, Liu Feng and Sun Quan, Zhuge Liang and other forces have only taken action, it is really not like their previous style, I am afraid that the lord has controlled the speed of this news this time, and during this time, I'm afraid that the lords of all the critical passes connected to my territory have already been arranged, and if they really have the courage to attack, they will never be able to get half of the benefits. ”
After saying this, when Sima Yi looked at Cao Zhi again, he already had a confident expression, as if what he said before must be true.
The ministers in the court listened to what Sima Yi said, and also looked at Cao Zhi with a surprised face, Cao Zhi has been committed to Cao Cao's future affairs these days, and rarely leaves everyone's sight, if what Sima Yi said is true, then Cao Zhi's foresight is really not to be underestimated.
At this time, some careful people have found that the original number of generals who should stand above this court have not arrived, coupled with Sima Yi's remarks, many people have believed it to be true, for Cao Zhi's hand, more people are full of joy in their hearts, originally many people thought that Cao Zhi was just a very good woman and a drunken swinger, if it is really as Sima Yi said, it means that Wei is still very promising in the hands of Cao Zhi, after all, Cao Cao's big hobby when he was young was to hook up with married women, At this point, it is not harmful for the son to inherit the father's business......
"Mr. Zhong Da is really careful, but I asked before, not to let Mr. Zhong Da speculate on my intentions, since what I did is no longer a secret in Mr. Zhong Da's heart, then my previous question is naturally not to let Mr. Zhong Da guess what I did, but to arrange it like this, whether I can really save my Wei Kingdom through the time of my father's new death."
Seeing that Cao Zhi was not shocked on his face, he was obviously not surprised at all that Sima Yi was able to guess his thoughts, but took the opportunity to take the test for Sima Yi again.
Sima Yi sighed again in his heart when he heard this, he knew that Cao Zhi was pressing step by step, just to let his talent be completely revealed in front of the ministers of Wei, but if the edge was too revealing at this time, it would never be a good thing for Sima Yi, he had just switched to Cao Zhi from Cao Pi, so he would inevitably attract a lot of infamy, and he would not have any good reputation in the court of Wei for a long time in the future.
But Sima Yi also knew in his heart that that was exactly what Cao Zhi wanted, Cao Zhi wanted to reuse him, but he was also afraid of a person like him who regarded his family as more important than his lord, so this was Cao Zhi's way of controlling him, and as a courtier, he could only choose to accept it at this time, at this moment, Sima Yi faintly felt that the reason why Cao Zhi was able to crush Cao Pi in the last period of time and successfully inherit the rule of Wei was not just because of Cao Cao's love.
Finally, Sima Yi, who was helpless, opened his mouth again and said slowly: "Lu Xun sent by Sun Quan will most likely attack Hefei, Jiangdong has been plotting Hefei for a long time, and Zhuge Liang has no trace, in my opinion, most of them want to reap the benefits, the lord can be a little vigilant, and since Liu Feng has sent the vanguard and there is no Yangping Pass, I think it will be a vicious battle, and the lord should not take it lightly." ”
These few short sentences have already made Sima Yi's judgment and discernment, Cao Zhi listened, then waved his hand slightly, signaling Sima Yi to retreat, and then only made a decision, that is, to send Zhang Liao to lead an army of 30,000 to immediately reinforce Hefei, if there is no trace of Zhuge Liang, there is no need to appear, if it is really as Sima Yi said, and then come forward to ensure that Hefei is not lost.
After holding everyone back, Cao Zhi looked at the three words Yangping Pass, which he knew very well on the map, and muttered: "Liu Feng, this time, I disappointed you, that letter really didn't deceive you, outside Yangping Pass, I'm afraid you won't be able to break through." ”
