Sima Yi returned to the mansion with a gloomy face, and locked himself in the room without saying a word, not letting anyone in.

"No one is allowed to come in without my permission."

His henchmen all knew that Sima Yi must have encountered something troublesome and needed to be quiet alone.

After a while, Sima Shi came to look for his father, Sima Yi, but was stopped by soldiers at the door.

Sima Shi was puzzled in his heart and asked, "Father is inside?" ”

The soldier nodded: "But grandpa said it, no one is seen." ”

The soldier said he didn't know what was happening.

Sima Shi had no choice but to turn around and ask the other subordinates, wondering why Sima Yi suddenly locked himself up.

But the subordinates couldn't say it clearly, they only knew that Sima Yi had been sullen since he came back, and locked himself in the room to drink alcohol.

Sima Shi's heart became more and more anxious, he was worried that something tricky had happened to his father. So, despite the soldiers' obstruction, he forcibly broke into Sima Yi's room.

"Eldest son, you still don't break in, otherwise, the master will blame you."

"I'm responsible for everything by myself."

When the soldiers saw that he insisted on doing so, they did not dare to stop him.

When Sima Yi saw Sima Shi coming in, he was not angry, but silently poured a glass of wine and handed it to him. Sima Shi took the wine glass and asked with concern, "Father, why are you so troubled?" ”

Sima Yi sighed, but didn't say anything.

"Father, what the hell is going on? Can you say yes quickly"?

Sima Yi reluctantly said that he had an illegitimate daughter in the face of his son's detailed questioning.

Cao Pi took possession of his illegitimate daughter.

Sima Yi knew in his heart that this was a conspiracy designed by others, but he couldn't do anything about it.

When Sima Shi heard the news, he was taken aback.

He knew his father's personality and didn't believe he would have an illegitimate daughter.

"Dad, is everything you said true?"

"Is it necessary for Dad to lie to you"?

Sima Yi never thought that his father would do such a thing, and he also believed his father's words, there must be someone behind this, no wonder his father wanted to drink alcohol.

"It's not a way for you to drink like this, you better think about what to do next."

Sima Yi shook his head, if he knew what to do, he wouldn't be so embarrassed.

Sima Yi looked at his father, his heart full of dissatisfaction.

He couldn't accept his father's attitude towards the girl.

"Father, how can you say that? That girl is your illegitimate daughter, and you don't have to sacrifice so much for her. Sima Shi said, "Dad, in this troubled world, feelings are the least valuable thing. That girl was just born of your impassioned feelings, and she has no value to us. The most important thing for us now is to protect ourselves and not to be involved in these unnecessary things. ”

Sima Yi listened to his words, and his heart became even more angry.

He didn't expect his son to be so ruthless.

"I can't accept your opinion. She's my daughter, and we can't just leave her aside, whether she's alive or dead. Sima Yi said.

"Dad, don't be swayed by feelings." Sima Shi said.

The father and son really argued about this issue, and in the end, Sima Yi still had to stick to his own ideas.

After Sima Yi asked Sima Shi to go out, he drank alone. After a few glasses of wine, his thoughts gradually blurred, and everything in front of him became blurred.

He staggered to his feet and instinctively walked towards the bed. Finally, he collapsed on the bed, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

This sleep was very heavy, and Sima Yi slept until dawn the next day. When he woke up, all he felt was a splitting headache and a dry throat.

He barely stood up, looked around, and found himself in the middle of the bedroom.

On this day, Xi Yu was going to conduct a military exercise. He came to the barracks and called several generals out, and at the same time asked Zhao Yun and Zhou Yu to follow and tell them about the matter.

Several generals didn't understand what a military exercise was, and Zhao Yun and Zhou Yu were also at a loss.

Xi Yu told them about it.

"How? Now do you understand what military exercises are"?

Several generals nodded.

Having learned about the concept of military exercises, the generals began to take an active part in the development of plans.

"Okay, now you have a detailed plan for the exercise. This plan includes the time, place, participants, and content of the exercise, so as to ensure the smooth progress of the exercise. ”

After Xi Yu said this, he came to the barracks and waited for a few generals to make plans.

After a while, let the soldiers call Zhou Yu in.

"King, I don't know what is the most important thing to recruit subordinates?"

"You have to inspect and maintain the equipment to make sure that the weapons and equipment are in good condition."

"Subordinates receive orders."

After a while, several generals wrote down the plan on paper and presented it to Xi Yu to see.

After watching it, Xi Yu felt very satisfied.

Then they asked everyone to gather all the soldiers and give speeches.

"Everyone also knows that we are going to attack Cao Pi in a few days, and the date has been set, and at this time, we must not relax."

"It's a military exercise, but you have to feel like you're really an enemy, like you're really on the battlefield, you know?"

Everyone made it clear in unison.

"In that case, let's hurry up and prepare now."

And the venue has been planned, and now everyone is going to the venue.

After thorough preparations, the exercise officially began. The soldiers, according to the predetermined plan, quickly entered the combat state.

Using the tactics and techniques they have learned, they engage in a fierce confrontation with an imaginary enemy. In the course of the exercise, the soldiers not only had to deal with the enemy's attacks, but also learned to work together to improve their overall combat effectiveness.

Xi Yu watched from the side and shouted loudly: "You must simulate the unexpected situation." ”

In the course of the exercise, unexpected situations can also better train people.

The soldiers, under the command of Xi Yu, quickly organized themselves and fought fiercely. Although they were a little nervous in their hearts, they also understood that this was a rare opportunity to fight, and they had to go all out.

The whole exercise took an hour, and the joke made everyone stop.

"It's good overall, but this time there are some shortcomings."

Xi Yu gave a general account of some of the problems he found.

But overall, everyone is doing well.

On this day, Sima Yi made a big decision.

In order to let his daughter be rescued smoothly, Sima Yi decided to let go.

That is, he wants to assassinate Cao Pi.

He knew that assassinating Cao Pi would be an extremely dangerous task, but he had already considered the consequences and decided to hire an Assassin to carry out the plan.

Sima Yi began to orchestrate the assassination of Cao Pi.

Sima Yi came to a mysterious killer organization, the Dark Pavilion.

This organization is hidden in dark corners and is not known to the world.

The members of the Dark Pavilion are top-notch killers who are proficient in a variety of assassination techniques and are able to complete missions without a word.

Sima Yi contacted the leader of the Dark Pavilion through secret channels and asked to hire a killer.

He was taken to a dimly lit room to meet the leader.

The leader is a mysterious figure wearing a mask, and no one knows his true identity.

Sima Yi explained his request to the chief: "I want you to help me assassinate Cao Pi, I need you to ensure that the mission is completed and no trace can be left." ”

When the other party heard that it was to kill Cao Pi, he was taken aback.

After a moment of silence, the leader replied, "Assassinating Cao Pi is not an easy task, and it requires a high price. You must provide adequate remuneration. ”

Sima Yi took out a bag of gold and put it in front of the leader: "This is my reward, I believe it is enough." ”

The leader nodded: "Very good, I accept your commission." We'll send the best killers on a mission. However, I can't guarantee 100% success because every mission is risky. ”

Sima Yi left the Dark Pavilion, his heart full of anticipation and anxiety.

He knew that this assassination mission would change his fate, but at the same time he feared the consequences of failure.

The killer followed Sima Yi's instructions and began the assassination operation.

On a dark and windy night, the Assassins infiltrated Cao Pi's palace in accordance with Sima Yi's plan.

But what Sima Yi didn't know at all was that Cao Pi had long expected that he might send someone over, and he had already made arrangements in advance.

Because Cao Pi knows his character very well, maybe Sima Yi will do crazy things.

It was at noon that Cao Pi suddenly figured out one thing, why did Sima Yi object to putting Du Yujie here.

When he came to Du Yujie's room again, he found that Du Yujie's appearance was somewhat similar to Sima Yi, no wonder he always felt a little familiar when he saw each other for the first time!

From this, it can be judged that this girl is Sima Yi's illegitimate daughter!

Cao Pi's guards spotted the Assassin's tracks.

"Who dared to break into Cao's Mansion, did he want to find death?"

So, several of the guards fought the masked killer.

And Cao Pi had already arranged it, and the archers were waiting in the bushes, and at this time many arrows were also shot.

In the scuffle, the killer ends up getting an arrow.

But one of the guards shouted, "Keep the mouth alive, don't kill the killer." ”

The killer brought him to Cao Pi.

Although Cao Pi guessed that Sima Yi did it, he still had to interrogate, and he even hoped that his guess was wrong.

"Say, who sent you to assassinate Ben Hou?"

"It's impossible for me to say it, you have what it takes to kill me." The killer is also very stubborn. would rather die than tell who the employer is.

"In that case, then torture."

Cao Pi sneered to see if the torture tool was powerful or his mouth was hard.

In the middle of the night, Cao Pi ordered his soldiers to take the killer to a wasteland. The soldiers tied the killer to a pillar and prepared to torture him.

A soldier armed with a whip whipped the killer in the back.

The killer gritted his teeth and endured the pain, but he never said the answer that Cao Pi wanted to hear.

Another soldier took a soldering iron and walked towards the killer.

He placed the soldering iron on the killer's chest, and the killer let out a scream of pain.

The soldiers continued to torture the killer with all kinds of cruel punishments, and they hoped that in this way they would force the killer to confess.

After a long period of torture, the killer's body has reached its limit. In the end, he couldn't stand the pain and said the answer: "It was Sima Yi who hired us." ”

Cao Pi got the answer he wanted.

Although I had already guessed what was going on, I was still a little angry when I found out.

He also knew that this matter was deliberately done by others, just to provoke the relationship between him and Sima Yi, but now he seems to have lost his mind.

"Come on, go to Sima Yi's mansion immediately to arrest Sima Yi."

When the interrogating soldiers learned that the answer was Sima Yi, they all couldn't believe it, thinking that the killer was messing around and deliberately saying an answer.

However, when they saw Cao Pi's appearance, they knew in their hearts, it turned out that Cao Pi had already guessed it.

So what exactly is the contradiction between the two of them?

These soldiers also believe that more is better than less, and this is not something they can care about.

On this night, Sima Yi was scared, because the killer was going to act tonight, his eyelids were jumping, and he had a premonition that the assassination operation would definitely fail.

But he did not regret his choice, and it was at this moment that a soldier came to the door.

Sima Yi's heart tightened, he knew that what was supposed to come was still here after all.

The soldiers stormed Sima Yi's mansion and surrounded him. Sima Yi watched them quietly without the slightest panic.

"Mr. Sima, we are here to arrest you on the orders of Cao Gong. Someone confessed that you hired a killer to assassinate Cao Gong. The leading soldier said.

Sima Yi's heart sank, he knew that his plan had been revealed.

But he remained calm and asked, "Is there any evidence?" ”

"There is a confession from a killer." The soldier replied.

Sima Yi closed his eyes, he knew that he could not escape.

He was taken away by the soldiers, but he was very calm and did not make any resistance.

At this time, Sima Shi got up at night and came to the courtyard, and when he saw the bustling people here, he felt particularly incredible.

He walked over and saw clearly, it turned out that Sima Yi had been taken away, and he shouted loudly: "Dad, what's going on?" ”

"It's none of your business here, you can go back to your room and rest." Sima Yi said very calmly.

Sima Shi hurriedly asked the leading soldier, what the hell is going on?

The leading soldier recounted the situation.

Sima Shi was taken aback, he suddenly understood, it turned out that his father had already sent a killer to kill Cao Pi behind his back.

Why is my father so confused? didn't listen to his own persuasion at all, and he said that he didn't care about the girl's life or death, why didn't he listen?

But he couldn't watch his father being arrested, so he said coldly to the soldiers: "It's impossible for my father to do such a thing, how could he kill Cao Gong?" Do not wronged him. ”

"Someone has already confessed to him, and he has admitted it, do you have anything else to say"? The leading soldier felt very angry, and he told Sima Shi to hurry back and not hinder them in the performance of their official duties, otherwise he would not be able to bear it.

Sima Yi said again: "Son, there is nothing for you here, I have already told you, you go back quickly." ”

At this moment, Sima Yi didn't know what to say, he could only watch his father being taken away.

In Cao's mansion, Cao Pi couldn't sleep anymore.

The anger in Cao Pi's heart rose instantly. His face turned red, veins on his forehead bulged, and his hands clenched into fists with a creaking sound.

Cao Pi's breathing became rapid, and his chest rose and fell violently. He felt his chest tighten and he couldn't breathe, and his anger seemed to tear his body apart.

Cao Pi began to roar loudly, his voice full of anger and majesty: "Sima Yi, you dare to hire a killer to assassinate me!" You betrayed me, betrayed Great Wei! ”

Cao Pi's anger reached its peak, and his eyes became fierce and crazy. He grabbed an object beside him and slammed it on the ground, venting his frustration.

After a while, Sima Yi was finally brought to Cao Pi's side.

Sima Yi saw a surge of anger erupt in Cao Pi's eyes.

The two men looked at each other, but neither spoke.

After a while, Cao Pi asked the soldiers to leave quickly, but several soldiers were a little uneasy, what if Sima Yi was mad and wanted to kill Cao Pi?

"Let you go, and you can get out of here."

Cao Pi got angry, and the soldiers all walked out.

Cao Pi asked Sima Yi, "Why?" ”

Although it is only these three words, it is very heavy.

"For my daughter". This time Sima Yi finally told the truth, he saw that Cao Pi's reaction was particularly flat, and he understood that Cao Pi had already guessed what was going on.

"You can do whatever you want with me, but I want you to let her go."

"Zhongda, you should understand that this time we have all fallen into the trap of others." Cao Pi said tentatively.

"So what? But I've made a big mistake." Sima Yi's eyes were closed, but he didn't regret his choice.

And he believes that Cao Pi is the same, even if he knows that it is someone else's trap, he will not be able to get rid of anything.

Next, Cao Pi fell silent.

The air in the room has become very oppressive.

After a long time, Cao Pi shouted, "Someone's coming." ”

A few soldiers rushed in.

"Take Sima Yi to prison immediately."

And Sima Yi was also very cooperative, still didn't say anything, and silently followed a few soldiers away.

Many soldiers felt strange that Sima Yi had always been loyal to Cao Pi, how could he suddenly do such a thing in a moment of confusion?

Sima Yi was eventually taken into a prison cell.

He doesn't care about his ending now, he cares about his daughter's ending, but Cao Pi has never given him an answer.

He also understands that he is usually very smart, but in this matter, he has indeed become irrational.

And Cao Pi's room suddenly became quiet.

But he never could sleep. (End of chapter)
