Because Cao Pi knew his personality very well, maybe Sima Yi would do crazy things.

It was at noon, and Cao Pi suddenly understood something, why Sima Yi opposed himself placing Du Yujie here.

When he came to Du Yujie's room again, he realized that Du Yujie's appearance was actually somewhat similar to Sima Yi. No wonder he always felt a little familiar when he saw him the first time!

From this we can judge that this girl is Sima Yi's illegitimate daughter!

The guards around Cao Pi found traces of the assassin.

"Who dared to break into Cao's mansion? Are you looking for death?"

So several guards started fighting the masked killer.

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

In the melee, the killer was finally shot.

But another guard shouted: "Stay alive and don't kill the killer."

The killer was brought to Cao Pi.

Although Cao Pi guessed that it was Sima Yi, he still had to interrogate him. He even hoped that what he guessed was wrong.

"Say, who sent you to assassinate this marquis?"

"I can't say it. You have the ability to kill me." The killer was also very stubborn. He would rather die than surrender than say who the employer was.

"Since that's the case, then torture it."

Cao Pi sneered, seeing whether it was because of the torture instrument or his stubbornness.

Late at night, Cao Pi ordered the soldiers to take the killer to a wasteland. The soldiers tied the killer to a pillar and prepared to torture him.

A soldier held a whip and whipped the killer hard on the back.

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

Another soldier walked towards the killer with a soldering iron.

He placed the soldering iron on the killer's chest, and the killer screamed in pain.

The soldiers continued to torture the killer with all kinds of cruel punishments, hoping to force the killer to confess in this way.

After a long period of torture, the killer's body had reached its limit. He could not bear the pain in the end and said the answer: "It was Sima Yi who hired us."

Cao Pi got the answer he wanted.

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

He also knew that this was done intentionally by others, just to provoke his relationship with Sima Yi, but now he seems to be irrational.

"Come here, go to Sima Yi's mansion immediately to capture Sima Yi."

When the soldiers interrogated learned that the answer was Sima Yi, they couldn't believe it. They thought the killer was unreasonable and deliberately said an answer.

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

So what are the contradictions between the two of them?

These soldiers also believed that it was better to have less than more things, and this was not something they could care about.

That night, Sima Yi was worried because the killer was going to act tonight, and his eyelids were twitching. He had a premonition that the assassination would definitely fail.

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

Sima Yi felt nervous. He knew that what should come was coming.

The soldiers rushed into Sima Yi's mansion and surrounded him. Sima Yi looked at them quietly without any panic.

"Mr. Sima, we come to capture you on the order of Mr. Cao. Someone confessed that you hired a killer to assassinate Mr. Cao." said the leading soldier.

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

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, knowing that he could no longer escape.

He was taken away by the soldiers, and he was very calm and did not resist at all.

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

He came over and saw clearly. It turned out that Sima Yi was taken away. He shouted loudly, "Dad, what's going on?"

"There is no business for you here, so hurry up and go back to your room to rest." Sima Yi said very calmly.

Sima Shi quickly asked the leading soldiers, what was going on?

The leading soldier told the relevant situation.

Sima Shi was shocked and he immediately understood that his father had sent a killer to kill Cao Pi behind his back.

Why is my father so confused? He doesn't listen to his advice at all. He also said not to care about the girl's life or death. Why doesn't he just listen?

But he couldn't watch his father being arrested, so he said to the soldiers coldly: "My father could not do such a thing. How could he kill Cao Gong? Don't be wronged."

"Someone has confessed him and admitted it himself. Do you have anything else to say?" The leading soldier felt very angry. He told Sima Shi to ask him to retreat quickly and not to hinder their official duties, otherwise he would not be able to bear it.

Sima Yi said again: "Son, there is nothing to do with you here. I have already told you, so you can go back quickly."

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

And in Cao's mansion, Cao Pi was so angry that he couldn't sleep anymore.

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

Cao Pi's breathing became rapid and his chest was fluctuating violently. He felt his chest tightness was almost unable to 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, how dare you hire a killer to assassinate me! You betrayed me and betrayed the Great Wei!"

Cao Pi's anger reached its peak, and his eyes became fierce and crazy. He grabbed an item beside him and threw it to the ground, venting his dissatisfaction.

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

Sima Yi spitted out anger when he saw Cao Pi's eyes.

The two looked at each other, and no one spoke.

After a while, Cao Pi asked the soldiers to leave quickly, but the soldiers were a little worried. What if Sima Yi was crazy and wanted to kill Cao Pi?

"Let you leave, you can leave quickly."

Cao Pi got angry, and these soldiers went out.

Cao Pi asked Sima Yi: "Why?"

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

"For my daughter." Sima Yi finally told the truth. Seeing that Cao Pi's reaction was particularly plain, he understood what was going on.

"You can deal with me at will, but I hope you can let her go."

"Zhongda, you should understand that this time we all fell into someone else's trap," Cao Pi said tentatively.

"So what? But I have made a big mistake." Sima Yi closed his eyes, but he did not regret his choice.

And he believed that Cao Pi was the same. Even though he knew it was someone else's trap, he would not be able to get rid of anything.

Next, Cao Pi fell into silence.

The air in the entire room also became very depressing.

After a long time, Cao Pi shouted loudly: "Come here."

A few soldiers rushed in quickly.

"Take Sima Yi into prison immediately."

Sima Yi cooperated very much, and still said nothing, silently following the soldiers.

Many soldiers found it strange that Sima Yi was always loyal to Cao Pi. How could he suddenly do such a thing in a daze?

Sima Yi was eventually taken into the cell.

He doesn't care about his ending now, he just cares about his daughter's ending, but Cao Pi never answered him.

He also knew that he was usually very smart, but in this matter, he really became unreasonable.

And Cao Pi's room suddenly became quiet.
