Chapter 406: The Mystery of Yingchuan
After sending Sima Fu away, Sima Yi sat alone in front of his case and sighed slightly, as the person in charge of the Sima family now, Sima Yi's first thing to protect is undoubtedly his own family, but the relationship between the Geng family and the Sima family accumulated for decades, Sima Yi naturally can't really ignore the Geng family as he and Sima Fu said, even if there is a slight possibility of preserving the Geng family, Sima Yi will not let it go.
He sat straight at this desk for nearly an hour, one by one may have flashed in his mind, the more he thought about it, the more strange Cao Zhi was investigating the Geng family at this moment, Sima Yi only felt that an invisible net was coming towards him, he knew that if the relationship with the Geng family was not handled well this time, not only would the Geng family not be able to preserve, but the Sima family would also fall into an unprecedented crisis.
Just as Sima Yi was sitting in the hall and thinking carefully about what to do, his wife Zhang Chunhua saw Sima Yi sitting in the hall, so she couldn't help but walk up to Sima Yi and asked in a low voice, "Why is Zhongda so worried?" ”
Seeing Zhang Chunhua's playful and resolute face, Sima Yi's thoughts returned to him a little, but when he came back to his senses and saw his wife, Sima Yi's heart suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and a thought appeared in his heart.
Zhang Chunhua is ten years younger than Sima Yi, and before marrying Sima Yi, Zhang Chunhua is a well-known woman with a stubborn temperament, often accompanied by swords, and Sun Shangxiang is quite similar, when he just married Sima Yi, once because he was afraid that Sima Yi secretly pretended to be sick and Cao Cao learned about it, he did not hesitate to personally kill a Sima Yi's maid, and then personally cooked for Sima Yi and took care of his daily life, which can be seen in his tenacity and determination.
At this time, when Sima Yi saw Zhang Chunhua, what came to mind was her perseverance and determination and mastery of swords.
"I'm afraid that my Sima family has had a lot of trouble, and the success or failure of this matter is mostly due to Madame."
Zhang Chunhua saw that Sima Yi was a lot more relaxed when he saw the expression on his face, and he was also very relieved in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "Why did Zhong Da say this, the rise and fall of the Sima family, the glory and disgrace, is naturally closely related to me, what is the matter, Zhong Da said it is okay." ”
Zhang Chunhua's body has many characteristics that women in this era do not have, she is a very responsible person, not only for her own family, but also for everything that can have a beneficial impact on her family, she is willing to do.
His wife's temperament, Sima Yi naturally knows everything in his heart, and for Zhang Chunhua, Sima Yi has never hidden anything, at this time, he has not fully won Cao Zhi's trust, nor has he controlled the military power of Wei, and there is only one woman in his own mansion, Zhang Chunhua, who has made Zhang Chunhua lose his status, has not yet appeared.
So, Sima Yi told Zhang Chunhua about Cao Zhi's investigation of the Geng family, which was quite closely related to the Sima family, Zhang Chunhua listened to it, and also showed a thoughtful look, the reason why Sima Yi was unwilling to serve in front of Cao Cao at that time was precisely because of Cao Cao's suspicious temperament, and in the end, he was completely forced to choose Cao Pi, who he thought was more likely to obtain the future ruling position of Wei, as the lord, and whether it was Cao Pi before or Cao Zhi now, since he was born to Cao Cao, Then with the growth of power, their suspicious temperament will definitely be revealed, and now, such speculation is obviously revealed in Cao Zhi's body.
"What Zhong Da means, is it for me to put on some makeup and go to meet the Geng family?" The quick-witted Zhang Chunhua guessed Sima Yi's intentions at once, the people of the Sima family must be under Cao Zhi's close surveillance at this time, but Zhang Chunhua is a woman, except for Sima Yi, few people in Wei know her details, as long as she goes to Yingchuan in disguise, almost no one will be able to connect her with the Sima family, so that the news of the Sima family can be quietly transmitted to the Geng clan in Yingchuan, so that with the cooperation of the Geng family and the Sima family, it is possible to ensure the safety of the two families by responding to Cao Zhi's investigation, If you just sit here and wait for death, most of the Geng family will not be guaranteed, and once someone in the Geng family tells Cao Zhi about the relationship between their family and the Sima family, the fate of the Sima family can only wait for Cao Zhi's trial.
"Exactly, most of the people under Cao Zhi's command don't know Madame, Madame carries my letter to Yingchuan, and according to the way agreed between my Sima family and the Geng clan to deliver the letter, you can send the letter to the Geng clan after seeing it, and you don't have to stay in Yingchuan for more!"
This matter is naturally not difficult, but it is necessary to ensure that Zhang Chunhua is not seen by the people sent by Cao Zhi that he is from the Sima family, otherwise this will only cause the result of wanting to cover up, and make Cao Zhi more suspicious of the Sima family, so the burden on Zhang Chunhua's shoulders is really not small.
"Where is the epistle now? When do I depart for Yingchuan? ”
Although he was well aware of his burden, Zhang Chunhua had no fear, and was ready to go to Yingchuan alone.
"Madame, don't be anxious, I haven't written the letter yet, I'll teach Shuda to observe the situation in this city today, if there is nothing abnormal, Madame can set off early tomorrow morning!"
Seeing that Zhang Chunhua was not very afraid, Sima Yi immediately decided to send some of his ideas and suggestions into the hands of the people of the Geng clan in Yingchuan tomorrow, Sima Yi had already decided in his heart at this time, even if the Geng clan could not be saved, then they must be allowed to muddy the water in the land of Yingchuan as much as possible, in addition to the Geng clan in Yingchuan, there are many forces that do not violate the river water with the well water of the Geng clan, these forces have a protective umbrella in the court of the Wei State, and the meritorious veterans of the Cao clan who followed Cao Cao to fight the world are also involved in it. In Sima Yi's mind, since Cao Zhi wanted to investigate the Geng clan thoroughly, then he put these forces under Cao Zhi's nose, so that Cao Zhi fell into a dilemma, and saw what decisions he could make at that time.
And exposing other forces hiding in the shadows to Cao Zhi's eyes must be done by the Geng clan, since it is obvious that the Geng clan is the target of the public, then if they want to direct Cao Zhi's attention to another force, it is obviously an easy matter.
After a night without words, in the early morning of the second day, Zhang Chunhua still went out to buy food for this day as before, but no one thought that Zhang Chunhua, who returned to Sima Yi's mansion, had completely changed people.
