When Xi Zhicai got up, he suddenly fell ill.

After all, he has been standing in front of the window for so long and still has a cold.

In addition, he was very worried, so this disease was mixed with heart disease.

It rained in Luoyang.

Sima Yi stood in the corridor at home, looking at the rain falling from the eaves.

After a while, he felt a shadow coming from behind, and turned around and it turned out to be his son Sima Shi.

"Father, it's raining, why are you not going to the room and making a fool of yourself here?"

Sima Yi sighed and finally walked into the study.

Let Sima Shi come in too.

He said that it was for Bao Wei's future.

Because Xi Yu is busy getting married now, the war will probably start after getting married.

As an important official of Cao Pi, how could he not worry about this?

"I told you that you can't help much." Sima Yi shook his head.

However, Sima Shi said that he really had an idea.

Sima Yi suddenly felt his eyes lit up and asked, "What's your idea? Tell me quickly."

"Dad, if I say it wrong, don't blame me."

"How is it possible? Just say something."

Sima Shi proposed that he could attack Xi Zhicai and then restrain Xi Yu.

Sima Yi immediately understood what he meant.

“Is this appropriate?”

When Sima Shi saw Sima Yi's expression, he knew that his father must have thought about this matter.

"Father, what's wrong with this?"

Sima Shi said that if Cao Pi felt that he would not do this due to face, there was no need to worry.

The incident where Cao Pi had contacted ninjas before has been circulating, so why can't this be done?

Sima Yi said: "Son, you have to be careful of your words. It is because Cao Gong has done this, so he must take into account his reputation."

"Dad, although I don't understand it very much, I also know that people who do big things are not particular about the details. If you are as timid as a woman, how can you achieve big things? Besides, is there any better way besides this?"

Sima Yi also considered the strength of the two families, and may be equal in size, but if he really fought hard, his side might not be Xi Yu's opponent.

Moreover, Xi Yu is using troops like a god. In this case, they must think of a solution.

He did consider this method.

Even if you are scolded by the world, what does it matter?

It will be fine after a long time.

Sima Shi also said: "If you succeed, you will be king, if you lose, you will be enemies. If you really win, people will gradually forget this matter over time. Then people will say that Cao Gong won with wisdom."

"Dad, you have always hoped that they would win, but, so you have to listen to your son."

After a while, Sima Yi finally nodded.

He said that this matter should be discussed with Cao Pi.

"Since that's the case, let's wait until the rain stops."

Sima Yi thought to himself, that's right, and he doesn't remember this time.

By night, the rain finally stopped and the air was particularly fresh.

A soldier came to report to Cao Pi, saying that Xi Zhicai was sick and might not be able to come recently, so he hoped to ask for a leave.

Cao Pi quickly asked what was going on.

The other party said that he felt a cold occasionally, and now he has taken medicine and is being conditioned.

Seeing Sima Yi coming, Cao Pi brought some grapes to share with him.

"Zhongda, what's wrong with you? Let's eat the grapes first."

Sima Yi was unwilling to eat grapes, so he told him his suggestions.

But he did not say his son's name, but said that it was his own idea.

Cao Pi's reaction was the same. Is this a good idea?

I have just been insulted. If I do this again, wouldn’t everyone think that I am a despicable villain?

"Mr. Cao, my subordinates have actually considered this issue, but they do big things without taking care of the details."

Cao Pi quickly asked Sima Yi whether there were such similar examples in history.

If someone does this, then it is reasonable to do it yourself.

"Duke Cao, there was a Duke Zhuang of Zheng in the Spring and Autumn Period. You should understand his affairs?"

Cao Pi nodded. After all, he had read a lot of books.

Speaking of Duke Zhuang of Zheng, he remembered many allusions.

Duke Zhuang of Zheng was a very dark-hearted person, but he also achieved hegemony.

"But Xi Zhicai asked for leave today and said he was sick."

Sima Yi was shocked.

"Did he pretend to be sick? Did he already realize there was something wrong, so he had to do this on purpose?"

"It's impossible. You and I have only discussed this matter with you. How can he know about it?"

But Sima Yi felt that the other party must have had a premonition.

That's why I pretended to be sick. Maybe let Cao Pi test whether he was really sick.

"Mr. Cao, why not accompany you to his mansion tomorrow to see if he is really sick or pretending to be sick?"

Cao Pi thought about it and it was okay. Anyway, his family had already come to ask for leave, so it was natural for him to visit his subordinates as his master.

That night, Xi Yu was resting in Sun Shangxiang's room.

When Sun Shangxiang was about to serve him, she saw that he was a little indifferent.

"Husband, is it because you are about to marry them, so you are a little uncomfortable with an old person like me?"

"You're thinking too much, where is this happening? I was just worried about my brother."

Only then did Sun Shangxiang realize that he had misunderstood.

She knew it, it must be because the next two places were going to fight, so Xi Zhi was caught in the middle, which was a bit ugly.

"But the eldest brother himself is very stubborn, and he is unwilling to defect to his husband."

"It's because of this that I'm a little worried."

Anyway, this is a messy thing.

He had no intention of doing things between men and women tonight, so he just let Sun Shangxiang go to bed with him.

"Husband, otherwise you can go directly to Luoyang to pick up your elder brother."

Xi Yu immediately smiled bitterly. This idea is too naive. Although he is kind-hearted, will the eldest brother come back when he goes there?

"If I could pick it up, wouldn't I have picked it up long ago?"

"Brother is not here at all. After all, he will be in a dilemma in the middle. We will be moved by him and understand him."

Xi Yu shook his head. This was not a solution at all, so he told the other party not to say that anymore.

The next morning, Xi Yu was counting down, but because he was thinking about his brother's affairs, he couldn't get happy.

He quickly returned to the room and asked the secret guard Qin Feng to come out.

"I don't know what the matter is when Xi Gong is looking for his subordinates?"

"I hope you go to Luoyang and then go to my brother's mansion."

"What are you going there to do? I hope Xi Gongming said."

"Go to protect my brother."

Xi Yu just considered that if the two armies were fighting, it would not be just Xi Zhi who was in an embarrassing situation.

Cao Pi may use him as a hostage to threaten himself.

Now from all the signs, Cao Pi was able to do such things, just like working with a ninja, he could do it.

Isn’t this kind of thing a spy for him?

In addition, some strategists around him gave him advice, so he would do such things even more unscrupulously.
