Chapter 414: Continuing to flicker

readx;

It was getting late, and Sima Yi was about to fall asleep, when suddenly, a noisy sound from outside the house dispelled his sleepiness. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Since the siege of the city by the Han army, Yecheng has been under the cover of noise most of the time due to the bombardment of the city at night with Shenwei cannons, but because Sima Yi's mansion is far away from the outer city, it is generally rarely affected.

Therefore, the sudden noise at night made Sima Yi feel a bad feeling in his heart.

When he came to the gate, there were already more than a dozen awakened family members gathered in the courtyard, all with sharp knives in their hands. These people seem to be family members, but in fact, they are all warriors with martial arts, like Sima Yi, a high-ranking official and powerful person, who has not raised such a group of people in the family.

"Open the door, open the door quickly, if we don't open it, we'll smash the door!" Through a vermilion gate, I clearly heard someone shouting like this, and the tone of his voice was quite presumptuous.

"Who dares to be presumptuous outside the Cheng Mansion in Benzhong!" Sima Yi shouted loudly.

"We are the Imperial Forest Army, we are here to arrest Sima Yi on the order of General Wei, open the door quickly!"

Sima Yi was taken aback by this answer, and the surrounding family members were also shocked, and they couldn't understand why the guard general Xiahou Shang came to arrest their master.

Eagle eyebrows frowned, Sima Yi had vaguely guessed a few points, he tried his best to maintain a calm look, waved his hand and shouted, "Open the door." ”

A moment later, the door creaked open, and when there was only a crack in it, the people outside couldn't wait to push the door violently, and rushed out of thirty or forty heavily armed armor soldiers, the leader of which was Xu Yi.

Facing the murderous Imperial Forest Army, Sima Yi sneered: "General Xu, on this big night, you brought so many sergeants to my mansion to make a big noise, I don't know what the so-called thing is?" ”

Xu Yi pointed at his nose and reprimanded: "Sima Yi, you don't have to pretend anymore, your betrayal of the country and surrender to the enemy has already been revealed, and you will be arrested before you can tie your hands, and honestly follow me to the prison to wait for the fate." ”

Sima Yi's face was still pale, and he said lightly: "I, Sima Yi, have always been loyal to the country, and the moon can be revealed, General Xu, why do you say this, could it be that someone has framed me?" ”

"If you want to avenge your grievances, go and tell General Xiahou, Xu is just acting on orders, I hope you know each other a little bit and don't do useless struggles."

Xu Yi had to talk to him a lot, and with a wave of his hand, a dry armor was convenient. The family members in the courtyard reacted quickly, and more than a dozen people surrounded Sima Yi in the center, seeing that a fight was about to begin.

Xu Yi snorted coldly: "Sima Yi, if you really want to resist stubbornly, then don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless." General Xiahou has confessed, but if there are resistors, it is not to mention killing. ”

There are as many as thirty or fifty people in the Royal Forest Army this time, and there are only ten people under him, if you really start fighting, most of them are not opponents, even if they barely beat the other party away, but then they will only attract more Royal Forest Army, and the soldiers of Yecheng will listen to Xiahou Shang's mobilization, how long can they resist.

After calmly weighing it, Sima Yi immediately responded, and he laughed: "I'll just go with you, anyway, I, Sima Yi, have a clear conscience, what is there to be afraid of." ”

As he spoke, he walked out of the crowd around him, and Xu Yi immediately ordered him to be tied up and escorted to the prisoner car that had been prepared long ago, and went straight to the prison.

When Sima Yi was sent to the Heavenly Prison, he was surprised to find that Chen Qun and many other Chinese courtiers had been arrested. Sima Yi was keenly aware that there must be something suspicious in this.

As representatives of the Chinese courtiers, Sima Yi and Chen Qun still received a little special care, and they were put in a separate cell, not crowded with others.

The cell door closed and the jailer retreated, and Sima Yi asked anxiously, "Changwen, what the hell is going on?" ”

Chen Qun said with a calm face: "It's probably that the thing we conspired leaked. ”

"Didn't you say that the messenger sent out of the city without any problems? Moreover, you also said that the people used are absolutely reliable, and even if they are caught, they will never betray us, so how can Xiahou Shang see through our plot? Sima Yi didn't believe it anyway.

Chen Qun said blankly: "This is also what I am puzzled about, but in addition, what other reason can Xiahou Shang risk offending the Manchu Dynasty Wenchen and arrest us and others." ”

Chen Qun's words reminded Sima Yi, he looked around and asked, "Even if the conspiracy is leaked, at most it will only involve you and me, but why did Xiahou Shang arrest so many people?" No, there must be something strange about this. ”

Of course, Sima Yi couldn't have imagined that it would be Fang Shao who revealed the secret, and even if he knew, he wouldn't understand why Fang Shao did this.

Of course, except for Fang Shao himself, no one in this world could know the reason why he targeted the Shi family.

When the two of them were puzzled, the sound of the impact of the armor leaf sounded outside the prison, and with the sound of heavy footsteps, a group of sergeants walked into the prison, and the first person was the Wei general Xiahou Shang.

As soon as they saw Xiahou Shang coming in person, the prison immediately boiled, and the ministers crowded around the prison one by one, angrily asking Xiahou Shang the reason for arresting them, and shouting for him to release them immediately, otherwise he would report his complaint to His Majesty.

"General Xiahou, at this time, it is the current situation of foreign enemies, you don't resist the enemy, but you treat your family like this, I really don't know what your intentions are General Xiahou?" Chen Qun overpowered all the voices with his loud voice that was an octave higher, and everyone's eyes were drawn to it.

Xiahou Shang walked over with his sword and stared coldly at Chen Qun on the side of the cage, his eyes gradually revealing disdain and resentment.

The cold eyes seemed to have a rolling heat wave, scorching Chen Qun, making him dare not face it.

After a while, Xiahou Shang slowly took out the secret letter from his arms, raised it in front of Chen Qun, and snorted coldly: "Chen Qun, until now, you still dare to pretend, your face is really thick enough, you won't not know this letter." ”

The moment he saw the letter, Chen Qun's heart felt like he had been stabbed hard, and now he felt ashamed of himself for a while, as if he had been stripped naked.

Sima Yi behind him quietly poked Chen Qun's chrysanthemum with his fingers, which made Chen Qun wake up from his shame, and in an instant, his face was once again occupied by confidence and calmness.

"Xiahou Shangjun, I don't know what you're talking about?"

At this point, he still denied it and did not admit it, and Xiahou Shang was even more disdainful, so he took out the letter and shook it vigorously in front of him, and sneered: "Don't you tell me, don't you know your own words?" ”

Chen Qun pretended to look at the letter in front of him for a while, and said disapprenously: "I see." General Xiahou, you have fallen for the Han army's divisive scheme, and the handwriting of this letter is obviously written by someone else imitating me. ”

"Don't argue anymore, I have already asked someone to check this letter, and it is clearly your handwriting."

Chen Qun smiled: "There are many masters in the world who are good at copying other people's handwriting, and this person's technique is just extremely clever, if it weren't for me, how could ordinary people see it." ”

After all, a literati is a literati, and as long as the tongue is still there, it can be said that he is alive when he dies. In a few words, Chen Qun found himself a defense that seemed far-fetched, but it was not impossible.

Xiahou Shang's political ability is obviously far inferior to his military talent, and when Chen Qun is fooled like this, he is immediately a little speechless, and he ponders in his mind, as if what people say is also a little reasonable.

'Could it be that I really fell for the Han army's annihilation plan and caught the wrong person? ’

Xiahou Shang asked himself in his heart, his face had already begun to show a hesitant look, and Xu Yi next to him was a little anxious when he saw this.

You must know that most of these ministers in the prison were arrested by him Xu Yi himself, and in the process of arresting, he was even more rude to them. If he caught the wrong person, wouldn't he have offended the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and where would he have a foothold in the officialdom in the future.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi's heart was furious, so he rolled his eyes, hurried close to Xiahou Shang, and whispered in his ear: "General, these Wenchen have always been good at arguing, at this critical juncture, the slightest carelessness will lead to a big mistake. ”

gave Xu Yi such a "fool", Xiahou Shang's hesitant heart turned a little back, his eyebrows froze, and he said loudly: "After all, I have this ironclad evidence in my hand, how can I believe it with your words." If you are really innocent, wait until you repel the enemy and then redress your grievances. ”

After that, Xiahou Shang brushed his sleeves away.

"General, General!" Chen Qun was lying on the edge of the fence and yelling, but he still couldn't keep Xiahou Shang.

A moment later, with a bang, the big iron door of the prison was slammed shut, and there was a dead silence in the prison for a moment, followed by sighs one after another.

Sima Yi glanced at the helpless Chen Qun and said coldly: "Changwen, things have come to such a point, it seems that we have to take the lead." ”

Chen Qun's expression was stunned, and soon, there was a murderous aura in his eyes, and after being silent for a long time, he nodded fiercely.

………… Shangyong, Shu Wangfu.

Liu Feng held the letter in his hand that was aggressive and full of command, and there was a look of annoyance in his eyebrows, but also a bit of schadenfreude.

A few days ago, the Wu army raided Jingzhou, and destroyed the naval warships of Xiangyang with lightning speed, and now, the 70,000 troops led by Guan Yu have arrived in Fancheng, but they can only look at the river and sigh, and watch the Wu army on the south bank besiege Xiangyang.

When crossing the river to no avail, Guan Yu thought of Liu Feng and ordered him to lead his troops south to relieve the siege of Xiangyang.

Closing the letter, the corners of Liu Feng's mouth slanted, and he sneered: "Guan Yu, Guan Yu, you also have a time to beg me Liu Feng, hehe-"
