Chapter 24: The mound tiger sinks, and the sleeping dragon comes out

"I didn't expect that the eighth son of the Sima family in Dangdang would have such courage, and he was not afraid at all in the face of death." Lu Rui entered Sima Min's cell with two pots of wine, Sima Min's performance was beyond Lu Rui's imagination, and he could see through life and death at a young age.

"It turned out to be the little Hou Ye, Min has heard of the intelligence of the Hou Ye since he was a child, and today he lost under the hands of the Hou Ye, and it is not in vain to lose this life, losing is losing, and the people of my Sima family are never afraid of life and death." Sima Min smiled, continued to sit in the corner of the cell, picked up the straw and continued to weave a grass horse.

"The eighth prince is not afraid of danger, and he admires it, but if the eighth prince and our army plot against each other and lose, it is worth it. However, if the eighth prince is being used by others and is just a scapegoat for others, then it is not worth it. Lu Rui smiled, sat down on the straw next to him, and looked at Sima Min.

"Oh?" Sima Min heard Lu Rui's words, was stunned for a moment, and turned his face around.

"Doesn't the eighth prince feel that he is being taken advantage of? And the people who use you, it may be. ”

"Hahahaha, little marquis, do you want to say that the person who harmed me is my second brother Sima Yi, right? It's a pity, I, Sima Min, won't be fooled, Cao Cao wants to use my matter to hit the Sima family, this matter has nothing to do with my second brother, and it has nothing to do with anyone in the Sima family, Master Hou, don't bother to talk too much. Sima Minwang didn't look at Lu Rui either, still weaving his own grass horse on the side.

Sima Min is really not simple, at this time, he is still on guard against himself, but unfortunately there is a saying that he is smart but is mistaken by cleverness!

"Eighth prince, you and I are both smart people, and bright people don't say dark words. Rui just wants to understand. Even if the eighth prince now speaks out about his accomplice. The Prime Minister and I have no way to get substantial evidence to deal with the Sima family. Lu Rui shook his head, Sima Min was cautious, but he forgot one thing, that is, the evidence, now all the evidence must have been destroyed, even if there is evidence, it can't deal with the Sima family.

When Sima Min heard this, his heart chuckled. began to think back to the planning process between himself and the second brother, the second brother really didn't seem to have anything left, and everything that could be exposed was not carried out by the second brother, but operated by himself behind the scenes.

Lu Rui's words are very reasonable, even if Sima Yi is acquiesced now, Cao Cao can't do anything, because all the evidence must have been destroyed, except for the evidence that fell into Cao Cao's hands to point out his own.

Second brother? Second brother, will you really betray yourself? Although his second brother is silent, he is really concerned about himself. Since childhood, he has loved and even surpassed his father. Sima Fang!

"Eighth Prince, can you think clearly? If the eighth prince is willing to say, he will tell Rui, and Rui is grateful. ”

"Okay, you Lu Rui! Ben Gongzi almost fell into the scheme. Lu Rui, you are very powerful, you actually thought of this strategy to disintegrate my brotherhood, but unfortunately, let me tell you, our Sima Bada is a deep brotherhood, and it will not be so easy to be separated by you! "Even if Lu Rui can't pursue Sima Yi, if he reveals it all, it will definitely have an impact on the Sima family in the future, especially the Sima family's hidden chess in various places.

Self-righteous and stubborn!

"Eighth Prince, Rui only asks for the name of one person, and Rui is not interested in the rest. The eighth prince is so wary of Rui, he used it in the wrong place. "Lu Rui doesn't expect Sima Min to betray the interests of the family at all, Lu Rui just wants to determine whether the person who conspired with Sima Min is Sima Yi, because history books are sometimes unreliable, Sima Bada's information is too little, if other Sima disciples also have Sima Min's resourcefulness, then you have to be on guard in advance.

"Oh?" Sima Min listened to Lu Rui's words, his face changed slightly, according to Sima Min's thinking, Lu Rui must have been sent by Cao Cao, to find out the situation of the Sima family, but Lu Rui just said something that made Sima Min a little overwhelmed, just to ask for an understanding?

Sima Min's heart was also up and down at this time, Lu Rui's words affected Sima Min, if it was really his second brother who betrayed him, then he would definitely be unwilling, he did not die in the hands of the enemy, but died in the frame of his own people, and anyone would be unwilling.

"Has the eighth prince ever known this wine?" Seeing that Sima Min was shaken, Lu Rui took out a pot of wine from his waist and handed it to Sima Min.

Sima Min took the wine jug, opened the stopper, and a burst of wine aroma came to his nose, this is Sima Min's wine collection in Xudu, which is a good wine that has been aged for 50 years.

"It turns out that Hou Ye is also a wine lover, and Min's wine in Xu Du was given to Hou Ye." Sima Min shook his hand, lifted the gourd, and was about to take a sip.

"Eighth son, this wine is highly poisonous, it's better to be cautious."

"What?" When Sima Min heard this, the wine jug in his hand fell, slipped and fell to the ground, and the gourd turned around along the ground a few times.

"Master Hou?"

"Eighth prince, don't look at me with such eyes, Ben Hou wants to deal with you, and you don't need to use such means. These are what your conspirators have prepared for you. Lu Rui smiled slightly, opened another wine jug, took a sip, and then handed it to Sima Min.

"Accomplice?"

"Eighth Prince, these wines were found in your mansion, and you know the situation in the wine cellar better than Benhou. Master Ben can tell you that the drinks in your house have been poisoned. ”

"Poisoned?" Sima Min's body shook slightly, and all the drinks were poisoned?

"Eighth Prince, I originally thought that you poisoned the wine in order to kill Wang Er in order to extinguish your mouth, but if you think about it carefully, you wasted so much wine for a second prince, and the Eighth Prince's resourcefulness is too clumsy, if these wines are not prepared for Wang Er, they are prepared for Eighth Prince." Lu Rui told Sima Min about his analysis, he was a smart person and would soon figure out the ins and outs.

All the drinks are poisoned? Sima Min listened to Lu Rui's words and was taken aback, this person wanted to put himself to death, and he actually poisoned all the wine, it was too vicious!

No, if the wine is poisoned, then it is very likely that the person who did it is his own brother?

"Humph! Hou Ye is really smart, he can't make a plan and come up with another plan, and all the wine is poisoned? If I were a schemer. I wouldn't have come up with such a stupid scheme. Did Master Hou ever know the amount of wine stored in my Xudu Mansion? Sima Min reacted suddenly. This may be Lu Rui's suspicious plan, he has a lot of spirits hidden in Xudu, several nearby houses have been opened by himself, and he has set up a secret pass, if the person who started it wants to poison all of them, it is basically impossible.

"Alas! Sima Min, do you think this marquis is deceiving you again? This marquis is not in the mood to play hide and seek with you. Since you are stubborn, Rui has no choice. Think about it, who can arrange all this? If you think you can tell Benhou, you can tell again! Lu Rui left the non-toxic wine to Sima Min, and he left the cell without looking at Sima Min.

"This?" Lu Rui's actions made Sima Min confused about the situation, and looked at Lu Rui's back blankly.

While LΓΌ Rui was questioning Sima Min in prison, a young literati in Cao Cao's prime minister's mansion was discussing how to govern the country in Cao Cao's study.

"Zhongda really deserves its reputation, Ji Jue once said that Zhongda's ability is far above Boda, it seems that this is true!" Cao Cao listened to Sima Yi's theory of governing the country. I appreciate it very much, Sima Zhongda was really a genius at that time. You can govern the army immediately, and you can govern the country under the horse.

"The Prime Minister has an overreputation, and he is ashamed."

"Since Zhong Da has such a talent, why did he deliberately call himself sick and refuse to serve the imperial court?" Cao Cao had just finished praising Sima Yi, when his tone suddenly changed and he began to question Sima Yi.

"Lord Prime Minister, Yi has been frail and sickly since he was a child, in recent years." Sima Yi hurriedly explained to Cao Cao that he was really frail and sickly, he had been weak since he was a child, and he had an unknown disease in the past few years, so he was not unwilling to serve the imperial court.

"What Zhongda said is the truth?" Cao Cao didn't look at Sima Yi, but quietly put his right hand on the long sword at his waist.

"Zhongda, Prime Minister Ben doesn't like people who lie." Cao Cao said in a low voice, and the long sword at his waist was already unsheathed.

"The Prime Minister's forgiveness, I, I, and I are because I look down on the Prime Minister's background and don't want to work for the Prime Minister, please forgive the Prime Minister!" Sima Yi knelt in front of Cao Cao with a puff.

"Hmm!" Cao Cao put his sword back into its sheath, glanced at Sima Yi, and was finally willing to tell the truth.

"Zhongda, if you don't care about your background, what is your true talent?" Cao Cao motioned for Sima Yi to get up and reply.

"The Prime Minister is eloquent and strategic, he is a good talent for governing the country, Chen Ping and Xiao He are not as good as adults in this dynasty, I am afraid that only Emperor Guangwu can slightly beat adults." Sima Yi arched his hand and returned to Cao Cao.

"Zhong Da told the truth." Cao Cao was not modest in his evaluation of Sima Yi, and smiled slightly, it seemed that Sima Yi's answer made Cao Cao very satisfied.

"In front of the Prime Minister, I don't dare to lie."

"So now, Zhong Da is willing to work for Benxiang?" Cao Cao stared at Sima Yi, and a murderous aura approached Sima Yi.

"Yi is willing to work for the Prime Minister!" Sima Yi bowed to Cao Cao and expressed his willingness to submit to Cao Cao.

"Okay, since that's the case, I'll temporarily wronged Zhongda to be a famous swordsman in my Prime Minister's Mansion, I don't know what Zhongda thinks?"

"Yi Ling!"

"Well, Zhongda will step back first!"

"No!" Sima Yi arched his hand and said goodbye to Cao Cao.

"Zhongda?" Sima Yi was just about to step out of the house when Cao Cao suddenly shouted.

"Prime Minister?" Sima Yi subconsciously turned his head back, one hundred and eighty degrees! Sima Yi can actually turn his head one hundred and eighty degrees, the wolf looks good, and there is really a wolf look!

"It's okay, Zhongda go down!"

"No!"

Sima Zhongda, the appearance of the wolf? Amazing talent? I Cao Cao can control it!

From then on, Sima Yi became a diligent sword and pen official in the Prime Minister's Mansion and began his road to the Tomb Tiger.

To the south, in Wollongong, Xinye, Jingzhou, a young scribe was reading in his room the Jiupin Zhongzheng system that the imperial court had just promulgated. Now the world is still the world of the Han Dynasty, and the edicts of the imperial court will still be conveyed to every corner of the Han Dynasty.

"Cao Cao, Cao Cao, it seems that you can't avoid compromising with the family, now that the Han Dynasty is divided, it seems that I am going to find another master!"

"Liu Bei, I hope you are a person who will not disappoint me!" (To be continued......)
