On that day, Yao Maoyu rode on the bustling streets, enjoying the scenery along the way. Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by a newly opened restaurant.

The restaurant entrance was crowded with people, very lively and looked particularly hot.

Yao Maoyu touched her gushing stomach and thought to herself, I happened to be hungry, so go see what's special about this restaurant.

He quickly walked towards the restaurant and joined the queue.

While waiting, Yao Maoyu observed the surroundings. He found that the people in line were dressed in different clothes, some were wearing gorgeous clothes, and their every move showed elegance.

Some people dress simply, but their faces are filled with a simple smile.

People's words and deeds are also different. Some people look anxiously from time to time and mutter to themselves.

Some people are content and chat and laugh with the people around them, and make hearty laughs from time to time.

Finally, it was Yao Maoyu's turn.

He stepped into the restaurant and was immediately attracted by the spacious and bright space and antique decoration inside.

The waiter came up enthusiastically and asked, "Customer, how many of you are?"

Yao Maoyu replied with a smile: "One."

The waiter led Yao Maoyu to a window seat. It happened to be his visit because he was leaving with the customer at the window seat.

Outside the window is a bustling street view, with traffic and bustling, and it is very lively.

Yao Maoyu sat down and ordered the dishes, and began to look at the surrounding environment.

Sima Shi has been in a very heavy mood these days and is immersed in the grief of his father's death.

The housekeeper couldn't bear to see him so depressed, so he advised: "Young Master, go out for a walk, maybe it can relieve your mood." Sima Master hesitated for a moment, and finally followed the housekeeper's advice.

He rode his horse and wandered aimlessly for a long time.

Before I knew it, I had arrived very far away.

A newly opened restaurant in the world attracted his attention. The restaurant was full of people and was very lively.

Sima Shi thought to himself that maybe he could find some comfort here.

However, when he walked into the restaurant, he found that it was full of seats.

He looked around and happened to see that the location opposite Yao Maoyu was empty, so he walked over and asked politely: "Brother, can you sit with you?"

Yao Maoyu raised his head, looked at Sima Shi, and nodded with a smile: "Please sit down."

After Sima Shi sat down, the waiter warmly greeted him: "Customer, what do you want to order?"

Sima Shi replied absent-mindedly: "Come whatever you want."

Seeing this, Yao Maoyu whispered: "The braised carp and steamed pork ribs in this restaurant are both good and delicious."

Sima Shi nodded slightly: "Then let's have these two dishes."

While waiting for the food and drinks, Sima Shi and Yao Maoyu started chatting.

Yao Maoyu smiled and said, "Looking at my brother's expression, I seem to be a little upset?"

Sima Shi sighed lightly: "My father just passed away, and I can't help but feel bored."

Yao Maoyu comforted: "Life and death are destined to be successful, brother should not be too sad. It is better to cherish the present and live a good life."

Sima Shi glanced at him gratefully: "Thank you, brother, for your guidance."

At this time, the wine and food were served. Sima Shi looked at the delicious food on the table and his mood improved a little.

He raised his glass of wine and said to Yao Maoyu: "Brother, thank you for your company today. I will toast you this glass of wine."

Yao Maoyu raised his wine glass and drank it all with Sima Shi.

Sima Shi and Yao Maoyu seemed to have fallen into the past and had a great time talking. After a while, the wine and food were served, and the two of them ate and chatted.

Sima picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, savoring it carefully: "This fish is delicious, it's really good."

Yao Maoyu nodded in agreement: "Indeed, the cooking skills of this restaurant are quite exquisite."

At this time, the sunlight outside the window was just right, sprinkling on the table, with light and shadow intertwined.

Sima Master looked out the window and sighed: "How great would it be if such a good weather could be put aside its worries and indulge in the mountains and rivers."

Sima Shi couldn't help but be curious and asked, "I don't know who Brother Yao is? Where are you going?"

His eyes were sincere, and he was looking forward to Yao Maoyu's answer.

Yao Maoyu's eyes dodged a little and hesitated, "I'm just a wandering person, and there is no fixed place to go."

His tone seemed very vague, which made Sima Shi a little uncomfortable.

Sima Shi couldn't help but feel a little puzzled in his heart. He felt that Yao Maoyu's answer was a bit strange.

He looked at Yao Maoyu and thought to himself: "Why is this person so vague? Is there any hidden secrets that are difficult to describe?"

At this time, the sunlight outside the window seemed to become a little dazzling, shining on Sima Shi's face, making his expression look even more solemn.

Sima Shi was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Brother Yao, if there is anything inconvenient to say, you don't have to force it. But I think that people should be more sincere."

Yao Maoyu frowned slightly, and a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

He sighed softly and said, "Brother Sima, there are some things that I don't want to say, but..." He wanted to speak but stopped, making Sima even more curious.

Forget it, since they don’t say it, then don’t ask anymore.

After a while, Yao Maoyu's drunkenness became stronger and stronger, his head gradually lowered, and his eyes became blurred.

At this time, Sima Shi noticed Yao Maoyu's changes, and his curiosity was completely aroused.

Sima Shi stared at Yao Maoyu tightly, with a curious light flashing in his eyes.

He asked softly, "Brother Yao, who are you? What's the point of coming here?" His voice was filled with a hint of eagerness, as if he wanted to break the fog.

Yao Maoyu raised his head and looked at Sima Shi with confusion. His lips moved slightly, but made an ambiguous voice: "I...I am a soldier in Xi Yu... Come... to send Cao Pi... a letter of persuasion to surrender..."

Then he became weak.

After hearing this, Sima Shi was shocked and showed a look of surprise on his face. His eyes were wide open, as if he couldn't believe what he heard.

He subconsciously took a step back and thought to himself: "Send Cao Pi a letter of persuasion to surrender? What's going on? Seeing Xi Yu, he would persuade Cao Pi to surrender?"

"You said you were in the army at Xi Yu? You came to send Cao Pi a letter of persuasion to surrender? What's going on?" Sima Shi's voice was filled with a hint of eagerness.

Yao Maoyu raised his head, looked at Sima Shi with confusion, and murmured: "Brother Sima, this matter is a long story... I was originally a general under Xi Yu. This time I came here, I was indeed a mission to persuade Cao Pi to surrender..."

Sima Shi frowned tightly. He lowered his head to ponder for a moment, then looked up at Yao Maoyu again, and decided to continue asking.

"What is this book of surrender...? Why should I give it to Cao Pi?"

However, Yao Maoyu was already drunk and unconscious, and his head was hanging heavily on the table and no longer answered Sima Shi's questions.

A strong sense of uneasiness surged in Sima Shi's heart. He knew that this matter was definitely not simple.

Sima Shi said to the waiter with firm eyes: "Don't find me a carriage, hurry up."

The waiter quickly replied, "Okay, please wait and come soon."

After a while, a carriage slowly drove in.

After Sima Shi paid the money, he gently helped Yao Maoyu up and sent him onto the carriage.

He looked at Yao Maoyu's drunkenness and unconsciousness, and he thought secretly.

Sima Shi carefully helped Yao Maoyu onto the carriage, and then instructed the driver: "Be sure to send him to my house safely. I will follow him on a horse."

The coachman nodded and replied, "Don't worry, guest officer."

Sima Shi watched the carriage walking, and he turned over the horse, waved the whip and continued to move forward.

At this time, the streets were crowded with people, hawking and shouting, and Sima Shi's thoughts churning like a tide.

A plan was brewing in his mind.

When he returned home, Sima Shi placed Yao Maoyu in the guest room.

Looking at Yao Maoyu who was sleeping, a mysterious smile appeared on Sima Shi's face.

Sima Zhao hurriedly walked into Sima Shi's room. When he saw a strange guest lying on the bed, his face showed a look of surprise.

"Brother, who is this? Why are you drunk?"

At this time, Sima Shi smiled and introduced to Sima Zhao: "This is the person I met in the restaurant, named Yao Maoyu."

Sima Zhao's eyes quickly swept across Yao Maoyu, and a trace of curiosity flashed in his eyes.

"Then who is this?"

Sima Zhao sat quietly aside and listened to Sima Master telling about his experience in the restaurant.

Sima Shi's voice revealed a hint of excitement, as if he was full of expectations for what was about to happen.

Sima Zhao frowned, as if thinking about something.

Sima Shi raised his lips slightly and said softly: "I have a plan. We can find someone to pretend to be Cao Pi, write a fake letter to Yao Maoyu, and ask him to take it back."

Sima Zhao's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Good idea! In this way, we can disrupt their plans and never let Cao Pi surrender. Brother, there is indeed a lot of fun to watch. However, we need to act cautiously."
