The four hundred and ninety-seventh round
(Yesterday's National Day, the bottle took a break, everyone can understand it!) )
――――――――――――――――――――
In the meeting hall of the Mangjia Mansion, Lu Ren and Sima Yi were routinely practicing the rules and politeness of officialdom, and after these due etiquette and polite words, Lu Ren and Sima Yi and others naturally sat down. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lu Ren has the appearance of carefully drying Sima Yi. And in this regard, Lu Ren was a little surprised, that is, Sima Yi's actual appearance was not as different as the historical materials said. On the contrary, Sima Yi's appearance should be said to be relatively ordinary, handsome is indeed a little handsome, but to say that Sima Yi is so handsome that it is eye-catching, Sima Yi is obviously not qualified. Or it can be said that Sima Yi's appearance is relatively upright, but there is nothing too special. If it is really thrown on a certain street, there will be no turning back.
If Lu Ren is not a time-traveler in later generations, he will not care much about Sima Yi because he is not outstanding, and he is only in his thirties. However, it is not a coincidence for Sima Yi, Lu Ren's heart knows very well how capable Sima Yi is.
Therefore, the more ordinary and respectful Sima Yi behaves at this moment, the more Lu Ren will be interested in Sima Yi, because a person like Sima Yi has a strong ability to forbear, and if he is confused by his ordinary appearance, I am afraid that he will die quite ugly next.
After a few words, Sima Yi said politely, respectfully, and with a little flattery: "Yi came here on the order of Duke Cao, and he should have put public before private, but he ...... Lu Yizhou and Yi said bluntly, Yibei people are also not good at boating, and the ship in the near moon has traveled so far, the body has long been tired, and the sanity is also poor, so I am afraid of losing the good intentions of the prime minister. Therefore, Yi dared to ask Lu Yizhou to resign, and Rong Yi was clear and wise after resting for a few days, and it would not be lost to pass on the prime minister's intentions in time, I don't know what Lu Yizhou wanted? ”
"Well...... this"
Lu Ren frowned, looked at Sima Yi carefully for a while, and then nodded to Sima Yi with a smile and said, "Zhongda, since you are tired of boats, you should rest well for a few days and after you have raised your spirit and spirit, you will not be wrong when you speak, Cao Cheng wants to have the original intention in his chest." Well...... Come on, lead Mr. Zhongda to the pavilion to rest. Good student hospitality, no mistakes! ”
"Thank you Lu Yizhou!"
There was no nonsense, Sima Yi was taken to the pavilion to rest. And after Sima Yi left, Lu Ren looked at Shirley first and then at Liu Ye, and then raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you see anything?" ”
Shirley shook her head, this aspect of things is not what she is good at, and Liu Ye nodded to Lu Ren and said, "Sima Zhongda's words and deeds are very wrong. It stands to reason that Sima Yi, as Cao Cao's envoy, no matter how tired he is when he comes here, he should first explain Cao Gong's intentions to the general, how can there be a reason like him to go to rest without even saying a few words?
"As for Cao Gong's intentions, we have long expected that the general must want to attack Sun Quan's coastal areas, making it difficult for Sun Quan to take care of each other. And the fighter plane must not be lost, since he has the intention of asking for help, he should directly explain his intention as soon as he arrives here, and no matter what, there should be no delay. Even if it's a tiring journey, it's not too late to rest after a few words of clarity. But he ......"
Lu Ren nodded to Liu Ye and opened his mouth to speak, but after thinking about it, he stopped. After thinking about it carefully, Lu Renfu asked Liu Ye again: "Ziyang, what do you think of Sima Yi?" ”
Liu Ye said: "I don't know much about this Sima Zhongda, how does the general think of him?" ”
Lu Ren said: "Don't underestimate him. If you want me to say, this Sima Zhongda is a generation of geniuses, talented, and extremely ambitious, but very good at forbearance. Especially his ability to forbear......"
Saying that, Lu Ren stopped his mouth in time, but still muttered secretly in his heart: "With his ability to forbear, it is not an accident that Zhuge Liang will be dragged to death by him." ”
Speaking of which, after all, due to the particularity of Liu Ye's identity, he originally belonged to an inactive category of people when he was under Lao Cao, and he would only come out to give advice on some suitable occasions, so Liu Ye's range of acquaintances was relatively limited, and he was naturally not very clear about Sima Yi, who joined Cao Cao after the Battle of Guandu. And at this time, after listening to Lu Ren's words, Liu Ye pondered for a long time before asking Lu Ren, "Did the general think of something?" ”
Lu Ren nodded and said, "When I saw him say that, I was thinking, how could he, as an envoy, say such nonsense. But when it came to his hidden ambitions, I suddenly understood. ”
"How?"
Lu Ren said: "Ziyang, you still don't know what kind of person Sima Yi is. If Sima Yi really wants to persuade us to raise troops to attack Wu with his eloquence, then he will definitely be able to speak in front of you and me at this time, and I am even thinking that if I am really opened by him, I may be moved by his words, and the principles I originally adhered to will change.
But Sima Yi didn't do this, but deliberately delayed time, and even used his own ungood boats and unwell after getting off the ship as an excuse, which is obviously not what an envoy with a mission and to grasp the fighter plane should do. Under normal circumstances, it will be confusing, but if it is linked to Sima Yi's hidden ambitions, hum ......"
Liu Ye also understood something more or less, and said in surprise: "What the general means is that if Sima Yi persuades us to send troops, and then helps Lao Cao successfully take Jiangdong, Liu Bei will not be able to withstand it for long, and the world will basically fall into the hands of Cao Gong." In this case, Sima Yi, a person with hidden ambitions, has no use, and their Sima clan's people will not have any chance to make a difference? ”
Lu Ren nodded vigorously: "If it was someone else, I wouldn't think so, but it was him Sima Yi who came, and if he dragged the mud and water like this, I would naturally think of this aspect." ”
Lu Ren would think of this, in fact, this is also corroborated. For example, when Ma Ji carelessly lost the street pavilion, Zhuge Liang used the empty city strategy to scare Sima Yi away. But if you think about it carefully, with Sima Yi's ability, he shouldn't have made such a low-level mistake at all, so there is only one explanation when he thinks about it, that is, Sima Yi at that time just wanted to repel Zhuge Liang, but he didn't think about Zhuge Liang's life. On the other hand, Zhuge Liang was also very aware of this, so he laughed and played a song on the city gate tower and passed this message to Sima Yi with music.
Let's put it this way, during the Northern Expedition when Ma Ji lost the Street Pavilion, if Sima Yi killed Zhuge Liang at that time, he would have to finish the game immediately after returning to the military power or something, so Sima Yi needed to keep Zhuge Liang as the enemy, because Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition could help Sima Yi gradually take power, especially the most critical military power...... Again, this is a classic power struggle.
(PS: There is no such thing as an empty city plan in history, but the story is wonderful, so the bottle is still used this way.) )
Let's go back to Lu Ren. If Lu Ren helps Lao Cao get rid of Sun Quan, with Lao Cao's own talents, he doesn't need Sima Yi to make a move at all, Sima Yi has no chance to show his talents and make merits, and then gradually take power, which is equivalent to directly destroying the ambition in Sima Yi's heart, which is definitely unacceptable to a careerist like Sima Yi.
So what Lu Ren thought of was that Sima Yi came to Yizhou this time, ostensibly to be Lao Cao's envoy and persuade him Lu Ren to raise troops to attack Wu, but in fact, he would definitely try his best to prevent Lu Ren from sending troops, so as to leave a strong opponent for Lao Cao, because this was paving the way for his own ambitions hidden deep in his heart.
As for Sima Yi's mission not being completed, will he be clicked off by Lao Cao after he goes back...... Lu Renhui said that there was nothing to worry about at all about this kind of thing. With Sima Yi's talent, it is not a pediatric matter to say a few words to Lao Cao and then save his life? And in Lu Ren's opinion, Sima Yi dragged on for a little time and then played a little tricks, and if he turned around in front of Lao Cao, he would pass the fault on Lu Ren's head, and then Sima Yi would have nothing to do, and it would be Lu Ren who was hated by Lao Cao.
Think about it further, Sima Yi's ambition is successful, where will he care whether others live or die? But then again, Lu Ren himself planned to make peace with Sun Quan, and no matter how this was, it would offend Lao Cao, so the impact on Lu Ren was not very great. Besides, Lu Ren and Lao Cao's territory are so far apart, can Lao Cao still cross the sea and come directly to fight Lu Ren's Yizhou?
The only thing that can get more troublesome is the maritime trade routes in the northern region. However, if he succeeds in making peace with Sun Quan, the shipping lanes in the coastal areas will return to normal, and Lu Ren's business can still continue with Sun Quan. At this time, it depends on what Lao Cao thinks, it is good for Lao Cao to continue to maintain trade with Lu Ren, if he cuts off business exchanges, he will not lose much on the surface, but in fact, according to Lu Ren's plan, Lao Cao will not be such a visionless person.
Of course, these are still just speculations, and the specific situation will have to be seen when Sima Yiken speaks.
With these things in his heart, Lu Ren picked something that he could say to Liu Ye, and Liu Ye couldn't help nodding after hearing it. And after thinking about it for a while, Liu Ye frowned slightly and said: "Sun Quan's side has not made any peace at all so far, and although the general analyzes that Sima Yi is delaying time, it's not good to drag on like this, right?" ”
Lu Ren looked at Shirley, Shirley nodded knowingly, and then said to Liu Ye: "Please rest assured, Mr. Ziyang, I have already sent Xizuo to Jiangdong, and there should be news back in the next two days." In addition, just last night, news came ......" (To be continued.) )
