Cao Pi hurried to Sima Yi's mansion and entered without waiting for the servants to inform him that he had entered. I saw Sima Yi in the back hall, took a deep look, and sat down opposite Sima Yi. This Sima Yi, whose name is Zhongda, was born in the Central Plains Wang clan and has unimaginable influence in the Central Plains Shi clan. is now Cao Cao's staff, but he is low-key and rarely appears in Cao Cao's meeting hall. This time, Cao Cao discussed with everyone such an important matter as the system, and Sima Yi did not participate. He seemed to be indifferent to all political affairs.

"Sir, do you know what my father is discussing with the generals and advisors in the main hall today?" Cao Pi asked urgently.

Sima Yi glanced at Cao Pi and said very calmly: "I heard that the lord is discussing the system with everyone, intending to abolish the royal system that has been inherited for hundreds of years, and wants to work with Lu Bu to formulate an unprecedented system!" In this system, the main administrative officials from the central to the local government were elected by the people, the emperor became a symbol, and the central council became the supreme authority! ”

Cao Pi asked, "What does Sir think of such a system?" ”

Sima Yi said lightly: "Heaven and earth have a way, the sun and the moon are orderly, and the world also has its own rules. Prime Minister Cao Cheng and Lu Bu's approach is only afraid that it will cause unpredictable chaos! Under such a system, the country has no owner, and there will naturally be constant disputes, which will inevitably lead to the destruction of life! ”

Cao Pi high-fived and said, "What Mr. said is extremely true! Then he sighed, "But although I tried my best to dissuade him, my father insisted on going his own way!" ”

Sima Yi glanced at Cao Pi, "Since Gongzi is against it, why don't you do something?" ”

Cao Pi spread his hands and said helplessly: "I tried hard to persuade a few strategists, but my father insisted on doing so!" Besides, Guo Jia and the others, as well as all the generals of the army, all support my father's decision, and I have nothing I can do! ”

Sima Yi squinted his eyes and said, "Since the son came to find the old man, he has already made up his mind in his heart, right?" ”

Cao Pi hugged his fists and bowed: "The kid is in turmoil now, please give me advice!" ”

Sima Yi stared at Cao Pi for a moment and said, "The prime minister has made up his mind, I think the prince will not listen to the prime minister no matter how he persuades him." ”

Cao Pi nodded.

Sima Yi squinted his eyes and said, "Childe actually already has an idea, he just wants to hear the old man's construction!" Cao Pi glanced at Sima Yi and asked softly, "Can Mr. guess what I think in my heart?" ”

Sima Yi nodded.

Cao Pi looked at Sima Yi and asked softly, "What does Sir think of my thoughts?" Can it be successful? ”

Sima Yi said: "Anything is risky, and besides, what Gongzi wants to do at the moment!" If you're afraid of risk, don't do anything! ”

Cao Pi pondered for a moment, clenched his fists and bowed: "Thank you Mr. for your advice." He stood up and left. Sima Yi looked at Cao Pi's figure in the darkness in front of the door, and couldn't help muttering: "The mountain rain is coming, the wind is full of buildings!" ”

……

Liu Bei looked at the codex in his hand and was very surprised. This codex was just sent by the guards of Cao Cao's mansion, and the content was that Cao Cao invited Liu Bei to go to the back hall of the prime minister's mansion to discuss important matters. Liu Bei frowned and muttered, "Why did Cao Cao suddenly summon me to meet at night? Zhang Fei said with a grin: "This late midnight is definitely not a good thing!" Don't go! Liu Bei smiled: "How can you not go?" We live in Xuchang, the host summons, but we don't go to see each other, it's unreasonable! Guan Yu frowned and said: "The third brother is right, summoning him so late, I am afraid that it is definitely not goodwill, and the elder brother should think twice!" ”

Liu Bei thought for a while, "The two virtuous brothers are too worried!" This is Cao Cao's territory, if Cao Cao tries to harm us, can we escape? He didn't have to use such a tactic at all! ”

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei felt that what Liu Bei said made sense, but they were still not at ease. Guan Yu said: "Since my brother insists on going, then, my third brother and I will accompany my brother." ”

Liu Bei smiled: "This is not good. ”

Zhang Fei said loudly: "Nothing bad! Don't you scholars often say, 'It is indispensable to guard against others'? For that Cao Cao, you should be on guard! ”

Liu Bei thought for a while and said to Zhang Fei: "The third brother is in a hurry, so he stays here to guard his family." Turning his head to look at Guan Yu, "Second brother will go with me." Zhang Fei pursed his lips in displeasure, and said angrily: "If you don't go, you won't go!" I'm not unfamiliar with Cao Cao! He picked up the wine bowl in front of him and dried it in one gulp.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu and more than a dozen personal soldiers unscrewed the mansion and went straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion. When he came to the door, the officer who greeted him at the door hugged his fists and said, "Please come with me, two of you." The soldiers stayed outside the house, and Liu Bei and Guan Yu followed the officers into the gate. Walking through the courtyards and corridors, the officer led the two to a secluded courtyard. The officer stopped, pointed to the two-story wooden building with lights on opposite the lotus pond and said, "The prime minister is waiting for the two, and the two of them will go by themselves and retire." He clenched his fists at the two and left.

Liu Bei led Guan Yu around the lotus pond and into the hall of the wooden building. I didn't see Cao Cao. Liu Bei clenched his fists and raised his voice: "Liu Bei was summoned to meet him, is the prime minister available?" No one answered.

Liu Bei muttered: "It's weird! The prime minister summoned me, but why didn't he see anyone! ”

Guan Yu saw that there seemed to be a figure behind the blue yarn cabinet on the left, so he pointed to the blue yarn cabinet and said: "There seems to be a person in the back, I think Cao Chengxiang is asleep." ”

Liu Bei didn't think much about it, and walked towards the back of the blue yarn cupboard, followed by Guan Yu. The two turned around the blue gauze cupboard and saw Cao Cao lying in a pool of blood, with a sword in his chest, his eyes wide open, and he looked dead. The two were startled and immediately realized that it was not good, and Liu Bei hurriedly shouted: "It's a trick!" Come on! The two hurriedly came out from behind the blue yarn cupboard, but bumped into Cao Pi and Xu Chudianwei walking in with a smile.

Liu Bei Guan Yu immediately stopped, and his hand couldn't help pressing on the hilt of the sword.

The three of them suddenly saw Liu Bei Guan Yu and couldn't help but be stunned. Cao Pi smiled and hugged his fists and said, "Why did the two of you come to visit at night? Liu Bei Guan Yu didn't know how to deal with it.

Cao Pi looked at the hall and didn't see Cao Cao, so he turned his gaze to the blue gauze cabinet on the left side, and said with a smile: "Father must be in Xiaomei." So he walked behind the blue gauze cupboard. Seeing this, Liu Bei Guan Yu couldn't help but feel nervous. Liu Bei was flustered and at a loss, Guan Yu grabbed Liu Bei and walked out of the hall. Dian Wei and Xu Chu felt a little strange when they saw that the two of them were in such a hurry. At this moment, Cao Pi's exclamation suddenly came from behind the blue yarn cupboard: "Father, you, what's wrong with you?" When Dian Wei and Xu Chu heard the movement, they immediately rushed in, and they saw that Cao Cao had fallen in a pool of blood, and they only felt like five thunderbolts.

Cao Pi came back to his senses and shouted angrily: "It must have been Liu Bei Guan Yu who did it!" Get them back! Dian Wei and Xu Chu thought of Liu Bei and Guan Yu who had just left, and showed great anger, and ran out scolding.
