The next day, the early morning sun shone on Yao Maoyu's face through the window, and he slowly opened his eyes and saw the unfamiliar environment around him, and his heart was full of doubts and uneasiness.

Sima Shi saw Yao Maoyu wake up and walked over with a smile.

"You're finally awake. This is my house, and yesterday you were drunk, and I didn't worry about letting you go back alone, so I brought you back. ”

Yao Maoyu rubbed her eyes, trying to remember what happened last night.

He only remembered that he had drunk with Sima Shi, but after that things became blurred.

"Oh no, did I miss something big?" Yao Maoyu said, "Thank you." ”

Sima Shi handed Yao Maoyu a glass of water.

"Drink your saliva first, it will make you feel better. If you still feel unwell, I can call a doctor to take a look. ”

Yao Maoyu took the water cup, took a few sips, and felt that his throat was moistened.

He looked at Sima Shi and felt a surge of gratitude in his heart.

"Brother Sima, you are really good. I must have caused you trouble yesterday. Yao Maoyu said.

Sima Shi smiled.

"Don't say that, we hit it off at first sight, we're friends. Friends are meant to take care of each other. There's no need to worry about you, I have a friend who knows Cao Pi, and I will arrange for you to meet when the time comes."

Yao Maoyu was suddenly pleasantly surprised.

"Is everything you say true?"

"Of course it's true. Just rest here in peace, your meal has been prepared. ”

Yao Maoyu was very happy.

Soon, a table of food stopped in front of him.

Since Sima Shi wants to stay here to take care of Yao Maoyu, it can be regarded as spying on him.

So the matter of going to the tailor shop can only be done by Sima Zhao alone.

Sima Zhao hurried to the tailor's shop, which was filled with the smell of cloth and needlework.

"Little master, you are here, the things have been made."

The boss handed the wrapped clothes to Sima Zhao, and carefully took out a gorgeous python robe and a delicate hat.

Sima Zhao took the clothes and carefully checked every detail, a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

He asked the boss again seriously: "Have you ever disclosed this matter to anyone?" ”

The boss hurriedly shook his head and replied in a firm tone.

"I promise not, young master. Your affairs are top secret to me, and I will never tell anyone. ”

Sima Zhao nodded slightly, but there was still a trace of doubt in his eyes.

He knew very well that the stakes were too high for him to slip up.

At this time, the atmosphere in the store seems to be a little tense, like a tight string.

Sima Zhao was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "Very good. If anything goes wrong, you know the consequences. ”

The boss sweated on his forehead and nodded repeatedly.

"Please rest assured, I will keep my mouth shut, and nothing will go wrong."

Sima Zhao turned to leave, his steps firm and decisive.

The clothes in his hands seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight, and every step seemed extraordinarily heavy.

Sima Zhao found the gardener.

Sima Yi handed the clothes to the gardener, and said with a firm gaze: "This is Cao Pi's clothes, you must be full of temperament after wearing them, imitating his walking posture." ”

The gardener took the clothes, looking a little nervous.

"I ...... I don't know if I can do it. ”

Sima Zhao encouraged: "You can." Remember, take every step confidently and be as majestic as Cao Pi. ”

Then, Sima Yi taught the gardener in detail how to speak and have the temperament of a king.

He emphasizes the calmness of his tone and the conciseness of his words, which makes the gardener keep practicing.

The birds in the courtyard also seemed attracted by their conversation, stopping at the branches to listen curiously.

Sima Yi looked at the gardener, and a hint of anticipation flashed in his eyes.

"You have to make people believe that you are Cao Pi, and you can't have the slightest flaw. And time is of the essence. ”

The gardener took a deep breath and nodded.

"Little master, I'll do my best."

"It's not about trying, it's about having to do it."

Sima Zhao gave him an hour to do it completely, otherwise he would think about his family.

The gardener behaved well.

An hour passed, and after continuous practice, the gardener finally reached a level that Sima Zhao was more satisfied with.

At this time, Sima Zhao decided to let the gardener wait in the house for a while, and he went to find Sima Shi.

Sima Zhao hurried through the courtyard and walked towards Sima Shi's room.

When Sima Zhao found Sima Shi, there was excitement in his tone.

"Big brother, can you come out and speak"?

Sima Shi nodded, and finally said to Yao Maoyu: "Then I will lose my company first." ”

Yao Maoyu nodded.

The two brothers came to a gazebo outside.

"Big brother, the gardener is ready. Let's see how he goes. ”

Sima Shi nodded slightly, and followed Sima Zhao to the house.

Entering the house, Sima Zhao motioned for the gardener to start the display.

The gardener took a deep breath, then took a confident step, imitating Cao Pi's posture.

His voice was low and magnetic, as if he had truly become the majestic prince.

Sima Zhao and Sima Shi watched quietly, a hint of surprise flashing in their eyes.

They exchanged a satisfied look and were very pleased with the gardener's performance.

Sima Shi smiled, looked at the old gardener with satisfaction, and said, "Well done, I know that I am not looking at the wrong person." You've done a great job! ”

The old gardener listened to Sima Shi's praise and had a pleased smile on his face.

He said modestly: "Thank you for the praise of the young master, this is all the little master's teaching." ”

Sima Shi nodded, and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Now we have to act immediately." I'm going to find a few family members to pretend to be soldiers, so let's go to the side of the mountain and wait. ”

After speaking, Sima Shi turned around and walked out of the room quickly, staring at Yao Maoyu behind him.

Sima Shi said: "Brother Yao, as far as I know, Cao Pi is going to take a few soldiers to the mountain to worship today. Let's take this opportunity to hurry up. ”

When Yao Maoyu heard this, a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he immediately nodded and said, "Okay, let's hurry up." Thank you so much. ”

The men arranged by Sima Shi had quietly taken their places on the side of the mountain, dressed in soldiers' clothes, with serious and vigilant expressions.

Sima Shi and Yao Maoyu walked on the road to the side of the mountain, and Sima Shi deliberately slowed down.

As he walked, he observed his surroundings as if he were thinking about something.

Yao Maoyu asked with some puzzlement: "Brother Sima, why don't we speed up our pace?" ”

Sima Shi smiled and replied: "The scenery around here is so good, why don't we take a slow time and enjoy the scenery?"

Yao Maoyu had no choice but to nod and agree to his request.

On the other side, Xi Yu and others continued to set up camp.

Beside him were rows of soldiers waiting in battle, weapons in hand, quietly waiting for orders.

He said, "Brothers, wait a little and don't attack the city lightly. We have to wait for news from Yao Maoyu, but we must not take it lightly, we must always be vigilant and guard against the enemy's attack! ”

"King, we know." One soldier immediately replied.

But Xi Yu always had a bad premonition.

He sensed that Yao Maoyu might not be able to accomplish this.

Finally, Sima Shi and Yao Maoyu came to the hill, and the breeze blew the corners of their clothes.

The hill is surrounded by a lush garden with blooming flowers and a fragrance permeating the landscape.

Sima Shi pointed to the gardener not far away and whispered to Yao Maoyu, "Look, that's Cao Pi." ”

Yao Maoyu looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a majestic person there, and there were many people who looked like soldiers around.

Yao Maoyu hurriedly came to the fake Cao Pi, holding the letter of persuasion in his hand, his expression nervous and firm.

The fake Cao Pi raised his head and looked at Yao Maoyu.

"You are Gong Cao, I am ordered by King Xiyu to send you a letter."

Yao Maoyu took a deep breath and handed over the letter of persuasion.

"This is for you, I hope you will seriously consider it."

The fake Cao Pi took the letter of persuasion and slowly opened it.

"Oh, you're the one around Xi Yu"?

His expression began to change, revealing an angry look.

With a hint of anger in the fake Cao Pi's voice, he asked, "What does this mean?" Do you think I'm going to surrender easily? ”

His eyes were full of hostility, and he stared at Yao Maoyu tightly.

Yao Maoyu straightened up and responded without flinching.

"This is a chance for you to put aside the feud and avoid more bloodshed and destruction." His voice was firm and steady, trying to convince the fake Cao Pi.

The air around seemed to freeze, and tension pervaded.

Sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, creating dappled light and shadows.

The fake Cao Pi crumpled the letter of persuasion and threw it on the ground: "I will never surrender!" Don't be delusional! ”

His anger was like a burning flame, making people feel an invisible pressure.

A few people pretending to be soldiers next to him pretended to be very angry.

Yao Maoyu looked at the fake Cao Pi quietly, and there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"Your stubbornness will only bring more pain. Don't you want to think about the people? He tried to convince people with reason and arouse the conscience of the false Cao Pi.

The fake Cao Pi sneered.

"The people? I'll do whatever it takes to achieve something bigger! His gaze was firm and resolute, and there seemed to be no possibility of wavering.

Yao Maoyu sighed in his heart, he knew that in the face of such a resolute opponent, the difficulty of persuasion would be greatly increased.

"In that case, then you can do it yourself."

In the end, he left with Sima Shi.

Yao Maoyu originally turned around and planned to leave, but heard Sima Shi say, "Brother Yao, go slowly." Why don't we go to the house and sit down for a while, let's have a few drinks and have a good talk. I hit it off with you, and I can't bear to be separated. Sima Shi's voice was full of sincerity and enthusiasm.

Yao Maoyu stopped and looked back at Sima Shi, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.

After thinking for a moment, he replied with a smile: "Since Brother Sima is so gracious, then I might as well be respectful." ”

Sima Shi led Yao Maoyu into the mansion, and the two had a very happy conversation along the way.

Master Sima ordered people to set up a banquet, and the wine and delicacies were served one after another.

Yao Maoyu and Sima Shi sat opposite each other.

Sima Shi poured a full glass of wine for Yao Maoyu, raised his glass and said, "Brother Yao, this wine is a fine wine that I have treasured for a long time, and it is really a great pleasure to drink it with you today." ”

Yao Maoyu raised his glass and responded, "Brother Sima is polite, it is also my honor to know you." ”

In a cheerful atmosphere, they tasted fine wine while talking about major events in the world and ideals in life.

Sima Shi did this, of course, to buy time for the fake Cao Pi.

Because Yao Maoyu had to be asked to bring a fake letter back.

The fake Cao Pi, that is, the real gardener, is now on the orders of Sima Shi to wait outside for a while.

He will only be able to go back when the matter is completely taken care of.

His own level of education was limited, and writing letters was not an easy task for him.

In the study room in the mansion, Sima Zhao was working hard to write.

In Cao Pi's tone, he wrote a letter full of insults and banter.

The language is staggering.

After writing the letter, Sima Zhao called a subordinate and commanded in a low voice: "You go and tell my brother that it has been written, and he will understand what is going on." ”

At this time, Sima Shi and Yao Maoyu were drinking happily in the banquet hall.

Laughter and laughter came one after another. Just as Sima Shi and Yao Maoyu were having a good conversation, a subordinate quietly walked up to Sima Shi, put his lips close to Sima Shi's ear, and whispered a word.

Sima Shi's face instantly became serious.

He put down his wine glass and said to Yao Maoyu: "I'm sorry, Brother Yao, there is something important for me to deal with." ”

Yao Maoyu nodded understandingly: "Brother Sima, please, I'll wait here." ”

Sima Shi came to Sima Zhao's room.

"Brother, has it already been written"?

Sima Zhao nodded, so he handed over the letter.

After reading the letter, Sima Shi particularly admired his younger brother's literary brilliance.

"My brother's writing, wonderful writing, is amazing. The younger brother's literary brilliance is like a star shining, which is amazing. ”

"My brother is too famous, how can you say it is so good"?

In fact, Sima Zhao is also very confident in his own literary talent.

Sima Shi read the letter, and he could feel the charm of the language on it.

If you change to being Xi Yu, you will definitely have your lungs exploding, so Xi Yu will hate Cao Pi even more.

will definitely come to attack Cao Pi, so that they can avenge their brother.

They must not let Xi Yu let Cao Pi go, so they must stop Cao Pi from surrendering.

"My brother is waiting, and I will send the letter to Yao Maoyu."

Sima Shi went back immediately, of course he couldn't send the letter directly, he had to get Yao Maoyu drunk.

Sima Shi immediately returned to the room and said with a smile: "There was a delay in some things just now, let's continue to drink." ”

Yao Maoyu raised his wine glass and drank cup after glass, with a satisfied smile on his face.

His love for wine is palpable.

Gradually, Yao Maoyu's eyes began to blur, and his body tilted involuntarily. Eventually, he collapsed unconscious on the table, unconscious.

Seeing this, Sima Shi was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said to his subordinates: "Quick, carry him to the room and place him." ”

He sensed that this man was so easy to fool. I can't imagine that I will be fooled like this.

The subordinate obeyed the order, carefully lifted Yao Maoyu up, and sent him to the room.

Sima Shi followed behind, a sly smile on his face.

The next morning, the sun shone through the window on Yao Maoyu's face. He slowly opened his eyes and felt a splitting headache.

And there was a person sitting next to the bed, who was Sima Shi.

"Brother Yao, you were right that you didn't leave yesterday, Cao Pi sent a letter last night."

Yao Maoyu rubbed his forehead, trying to remember what happened last night. He vaguely remembered that he had drunk a lot of alcohol again, and then he fell unconscious.

He frowned and asked suspiciously, "What did you say?" How could there be such a thing? Where is the faith? ”

Cao Pi handed over a letter, and Yao Maoyu took it.

A trace of doubt welled up in his heart, but he didn't think much of it.

Yao Maoyu got up, straightened his clothes, and said, "Okay, I'll go back to my life." ”

He felt that he had done a general trend, and Xi Yu would definitely praise him.

"In that case, then it is inconvenient for me to stay longer."

In this way, Sima Shi sent Yao Maoyu out.

Yao Maoyu left Sima Shi's mansion with the letter, and Sima Shi's plan went smoothly.

Sima Shi walked briskly to Sima Zhao's room, his face filled with a smile of joy.

Seeing this, Sima Zhao asked, "Brother, has the matter been done?" ”

Sima Shi smiled proudly: "The matter has been done, Yao Maoyu, that guy is simply too stupid!" ”

After Sima Zhao heard this, he couldn't help laughing: "Haha, then Yao Maoyu was fooled so easily." ”

In the room, sunlight shines through the windows on the floor, creating patches of light and shadow.

Sima Shi said: "I'm worried that halfway through, he will suspect something. ”

"Don't worry, brother, he only thinks about meritorious service now, and he probably won't react."

Sima Shi thought that what his younger brother said seemed to have some truth.

Next, the faces of the two people were very embarrassed, because they remembered their dead father Sima Yi at the same time.

They thought that Cao Pi was really not sorry to die.

Yao Maoyu felt very happy, this time not only did the thing, but also met Sima Shi, a good brother.

By the way, I only know that people's surname is Sima, but I don't know what it is.

Why are you so stupid, I didn't ask.

Forget it, what's the use of thinking about it now? I'll see you later.

When night falls, the city gates are brightly lit.

Yao Maoyu's figure was in a hurry, and he couldn't wait to rush to the barracks with the important letter in his arms.

Walking into the barracks, the bonfire was blazing, illuminating the surroundings.

Xi Yu stood by the firelight, studying the map intently.

Yao Maoyu stepped forward quickly, his eyes flashing with excitement.

"Your Majesty, the matter has been done." Yao Maoyu couldn't hide his joy and said.

Xi Yu raised his head, and his gaze fell on the letter in Yao Maoyu's hand.

"Very good, show me the letter."

Yao Maoyu handed the letter to Xi Yu, full of anticipation.

Xi Yu took the letter, leaned close to the bonfire, and carefully read every word. His expression grew serious.

He didn't expect that the language on it was particularly bad. It shouldn't be, it's not like Cao Pi's style.

So, he looked at Yao Maoyu.

"Tell me the specifics."

Yao Maoyu said something about it.

"To be specific, who is the Sima Gongzi you are talking about?"

Xi Yu seemed to realize something.

If you didn't guess, that person should be Sima Shi.

"The villain only knows his surname Sima, but he doesn't know what his name is." (End of chapter)
