Three Caos fighting for a bride? Zhen Ji, I, Cao Zhi, will take her!

Silence, long silence.

Under the gaze of everyone present.

In the end, Sima Fang did not reach out to take the hilt of the sword.

After seeing Sima Fang's actions.

Everyone present couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

They knew that Cao Zhi had passed this hurdle.

There were also many people who saw that Cao Zhi was so frank.

They couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Cao Zhi really wasn't the murderer?

……

"pity!"

Seeing that Sima Fang did not take action in the end.

Cao Zhi couldn't help feeling regretful.

That’s right, Cao Zhi’s magnanimity just now was fake.

His purpose was to lure Sima Fang into attacking him.

Once Sima Fang attacks him.

Then I have a reason to deal with the Sima family!

Anyway, Sima Yi didn't kill him himself.

If you take action first, then you are wrong!

What, you don't believe it?

Then go ask Cui Yan, Shen Rong, Tian Huo, King Zhao, and all the other Xinxue disciples...

They were all happy to testify on their own behalf.

……

I realized that I had been thinking about something all night but still couldn’t figure it out.

This was resolved by Cao Zhi.

Cao Cao was naturally very happy at this time.

So I struck while the iron was hot:

"Please rest assured, Sima Gong. Zhongda is your son and my nephew as well. I will never let the murderer go unpunished!"

"Also, the Sima family has made great contributions to the court. I will petition the Emperor to confer the title of Marquis of Guannei on Zhongda and bury him with the rites worthy of a duke. His title will be inherited by someone from your Sima family!"

"In addition, I will personally give the Sima family 10,000 taels of gold and 50,000 pieces of silk as a reward for Zhongda's diligent work during my time as a literary official!"

Although, Sima Yi had only been the literary official in the Sikong Mansion for a few days.

But since Cao Cao said so, others would naturally not be stupid enough to object.

Sima Fang also knew that Cao Cao did this.

It's nothing more than shutting up yourself.

"Si Ma Fang is deeply grateful for Si Kong's kindness to my child. However, since my child has passed away suddenly, I ask Si Kong to forgive the Sima family for their rudeness!"

After saying this.

Sima Fang and the Sima family and others slowly left with Sima Yi's coffin.

As for Cao Cao, after hearing Sima Fang's words.

He knew that Cao Zhi had killed Sima Yi.

It has now been officially resolved.

That is, Sima Yi was killed by an unknown murderer!

……

Sima Fang and his family left.

It is not a good time for Cui Yan and others to stay here.

So after saying hello to Cao Cao, they left one after another.

in a blink.

The entrance of Sikong Mansion was originally crowded with hundreds of people.

At this time, only Cao Cao and his son, Guo Jia, Xu Chu and others were left.

"Damn it, damn it!"

In the shadows, after seeing Sima Yi's death being officially concluded by Cao Cao.

Cao Pi knew that it was impossible for him to make a fuss about this!

As for those hidden in the corners.

The spies from other forces also left quickly at this time.

They must tell their master the news here as soon as possible.

……

Sikong Mansion.

In the study room.

In the room at this time.

There are only Cao Zhi and Cao Cao.

As soon as he entered the room, Cao Cao's expression changed rapidly and he said angrily:

"Rebellious son, tell me, why did you want to kill Sima Yi?"

Cao Zhi glanced at Cao Cao and said in a deep voice:

"Since I killed him, I must have a reason!"

"Why don't you tell me the reason?"

Cao Cao roared.

Originally according to the plan of Cao Cao and Guo Jia.

It was to let Cao Zhi face Sima Fang and Cao Pi alone.

But because Sima Fang did not play by the rules, he was forced to leave.

In addition, Cao Zhi was not at the gate of Sikong Mansion at that time.

Therefore, Cao Cao was forced to step down and clean up Cao Zhi's mess.

Although, the problem has indeed been solved now.

But Cao Cao’s previous performance.

It will definitely be known to everyone.

Cao Cao could think of it.

Those who are against themselves.

At this moment, he must be gossiping in the dark, saying that he is ungrateful.

When I think about the personality I have maintained for so long.

Cao Cao was furious because Cao Zhi was ruined.

You know, for the sake of character.

Cao Cao was generous and forgave Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu.

As for Cao Zhi, after seeing Cao Cao's face flushed and his hair standing on end with anger.

He didn't understand why Cao Cao was so angry?

However, none of this matters!

Because what he was about to say next would definitely make Cao Cao support him!

……

"It is precisely because I cannot tell you this reason that I am troubled!"

Cao Zhi spread his hands and said helplessly.

"Is there any reason not to tell?"

Cao Cao said angrily.

But he stopped talking halfway.

Cao Cao was suddenly stunned, then whispered tentatively:

"But what secret did the old man with white beard reveal?"

"Not bad!"

Seeing Cao Cao being so sensible, Cao Zhi nodded with satisfaction.

"I wonder if Dad has ever heard of the 'Three Horses Trough'!"

Cao Zhi said.

boom!

When Cao Zhi said this, Cao Cao was stunned.

The look he gave Cao Zhi was full of disbelief.

If before, Cao Cao still had some doubts about what the white-bearded old man said.

Now, Cao Cao has complete faith in the white-bearded old man.

There is no other reason.

Because the saying of "three horses feeding in a trough" comes from a dream of Cao Cao.

Cao Cao never told anyone about this dream.

At this moment, Cao Cao told his dream immediately.

How could Cao Zhi not be shocked and believe it?

"Zijian, what do the gods say about the 'Three Horses Feeding Trough' incident?"

Cao Cao said anxiously.

Shocked, Cao Cao directly called the white-bearded old man a god.

"Father, Master Whitebeard said that the 'Three Horses' refer to three individuals who grew up dependent on our Cao family and would eventually replace it. These three individuals are not Ma Teng and his son from Xiliang!"

"Is Sima Yi one of them?"

Cao Cao said in a deep voice.

"Yes, besides Sima Yi, the other two are Sima Yi's two sons, Sima Shi and Sima Zhao!"

"However, since Sima Yi has not yet had a child, after I kill him, the 'Three Horses Feeding Trough' will no longer hold true!"

Cao Zhi laughed.

"Good, very good, very good!"

"Zijian, you did a great job!"

Cao Cao patted Cao Zhi on the shoulder and laughed.

If you say before.

Cao Cao was also angry because Cao Zhi killed Sima Yi.

Now, Cao Cao would only applaud and say that Cao Zhi killed the man well and brilliantly.

"Father, even though Sima Fang was silenced today, I believe he must be holding a grudge. We must respond as soon as possible!"

Cao Zhi stroked his neck with his fingers, and the meaning was obvious.

Of course, Cao Zhi did this not because he was cruel.

It was because Cao Zhi was worried that after he killed Sima Yi, another Sima Yi would appear in history.

Eventually, he overthrew the Cao family's kingdom and took its place.

After all, during Wang Mang's reign, Liu Xiu was killed all over the country.

But the real Liu Xiu was unharmed.

In the end, Liu Xiu overthrew Wang Mang's Xinmang regime.

Therefore, in order to prevent another Sima Yi from emerging in the Sima family, Cao Zhi was so cautious.

Anyway, in the original history, all members of the Sima family were rebels, so Cao Zhi was not worried about killing them by mistake.

Including Sima Fu, who played the good guy.

"Zijian, you just said, 'Three Horses Feeding Troughs' refers to Sima Yi and his sons?"

Cao Cao said.

"That's right!" Cao Zhi nodded.

"In that case, the Sima family cannot be moved for the time being!"

Cao Cao said in a deep voice.

“???” Cao Zhi.

……

Just as the father and son were about to continue their conversation.

Suddenly, Guo Jia hurriedly walked in from outside.

"Sikong, something happened in Bingzhou!"

As Guo Jia said this, he handed a small note to Cao Cao.
