Chapter 144 Ginger is still old and spicy
Cao Shuang and his advisers had considered the situation of the Sima family resisting arrest in advance. According to Ding Mi's suggestion, if the Sima family dared to resist arrest, it would be exactly what they wanted. Cao Shuang could use this reason to bloodbath the Sima mansion and deal with Sima once and for all.
This hidden danger in your home.
So when Cao Shuang saw Sima Zhao and his men rushing up, he was not angry but happy. Now what Cao Shuang needed was an excuse. He gave an order and the Imperial Army ambushing outside Sima's Mansion swarmed in and surrounded the courtyard of Sima's house.
Surrounded.
Bai Lingjun's face changed drastically. It was obvious that what happened today was a premeditated action by Cao Shuang. Each link was connected with the next, and it was so intricate that it did not give the Sima family any chance to breathe. If the Sima family still insists on taking action now,
If he protects Sima Shi, then Cao Shuang is very likely to kill him and bloodbath Sima's mansion.
Sima Zhao's hand holding the hilt of the sword was also trembling slightly. The opponent had mobilized so many troops, and they were obviously prepared. But if he retreated now, there would be no one to protect Sima Division.
Sima Zhao and Master Sima had a deep love for each other, and Sima Zhao absolutely could not watch Master Sima Langdang go to jail and then be killed. Therefore, facing the Forbidden Army full of swords and guns, Sima Zhao was in a dilemma and could not make a decision for a while.
A proud smile appeared on Cao Shuang's face. The people of the Sima Mansion dared to openly resist arrest. This was a golden opportunity. A look of cruelty flashed across his eyes, and he waved his hand and ordered: "Kill without mercy!"
As soon as Cao Shuang finished speaking, he heard a deep and powerful voice coming from the middle hall: "Wait a minute!"
Although the sound was not very loud, it was so majestic and intimidating that everyone stopped and looked towards the door of the nave.
At this time, Sima Yi slowly walked out of the central hall. His thin and slender face showed no expression at all. His gray beard and hair made him look a little old, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle as usual.
Shocking.
The appearance of Sima Yi made everyone in Sima Mansion secretly relieved. Sima Yi was the Dinghai Shenzhen. No matter how big the storm was, as long as he was there, he could calm it down.
Everyone was silent and silently made way for Sima Yi.
Cao Liang put down his wine glass and narrowed his eyes. Sima Yi, the old fox, finally appeared, and he appeared at the right time, just when the situation was getting out of hand.
Sure enough, the old ginger is still hot. Sima Yi just appeared on the scene and shocked the chaotic scene. A good person is a good person!
Sima Yi slowly walked up to Cao Shuang, bowed slightly and said, "General, can you show me your kindness and refrain from using weapons rashly?"
Cao Shuang laughed dryly and said: "Master Sima is highly respected by everyone, how dare I deny him this little face. It's just that my son, Master Sima, was involved in a murder case. Now the victim is pursuing the case, and there is irrefutable evidence. I can't ignore it. I also hope that Master Sima will be pursued."
I can ask your son to go to Tingwei's mansion to help investigate the case."
Sima Yi said solemnly: "There are state laws and family rules. Since Quan Zi is involved in the murder case, he should assist in the investigation. Zi Yuan, please follow Li Tingwei to Tingwei Mansion to assist in the investigation."
"Wei!" Master Sima did not protest, bowed his hands in salute, and followed the order, looking extremely lonely.
Sima Zhao became a little anxious and said: "Father..."
Sima Yi lightly waved his hand and said calmly: "The prince broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people, not to mention your brother? Don't worry, if your brother really committed a crime and killed someone, then it is only natural and right to kill someone to pay for it. But if someone frames it and confuses right and wrong,
Even if I risk my life as a father, I will never let the traitor succeed!"
Sima Zhao stopped talking and had to retreat.
Seeing an earth-shattering turmoil turn calm and calm with Sima Yi's appearance, it vanished into nothing in an instant.
But for Cao Shuang, it was not all without gain. This time they mobilized troops with the purpose of capturing Sima Shi. Sima Yi was willing to promise to let Sima Shi go to Tingwei Mansion. Cao Shuang's goal was achieved.
As for the bloodbath of the Sima Mansion, it was only an extreme measure taken when the Sima family refused to cooperate. Young men like Sima Zhao may still make such mistakes, but how could an old fox like Sima Yi fall into this trap?
.
So Cao Shuang accepted the offer and ordered Li Sheng to take Sima Shi into custody. He then exchanged a few pleasantries with Sima Yi and left.
Xiahou Xuan's goal was achieved and he stopped making trouble. He ordered his servants to close the lid of the golden nanmu coffin and carry the coffin away.
This was evidence to punish Master Sima to death. Xia Houxuan did not need to carry it back to his own house this time but carried it directly to Tingwei's house.
As soon as Cao Shuang left, the Imperial Army withdrew immediately. The Sima Courtyard, which had been crowded just now, became empty in an instant, leaving only tables full of leftovers and many guests with astonished faces.
A mess.
It's a shame that a really grand wedding has turned into this.
Sima Yi cupped his fists and saluted the guests and said: "Everyone, I'm really sorry. Unfortunately for our family today, something like this happened. You came here to take advantage of the excitement and left when you were disappointed. You can go on your own today. I will prepare the wine for you another day.
, I apologize to everyone."
There had been such a big fuss in the family, and the wedding would definitely not be able to go ahead. Naturally, these guests couldn't stay here any longer. After listening to Sima Yi's words, they all left one after another.
In this sigh, the song finally came to an end.
Sima Yi said to Bai Lingjun: "Now that the bride has entered the house, she is already a member of my Sima family. I will tell you to go down and place the bride in the back hall and send someone to take care of her."
"Wei." Bai Lingjun obeyed the leader's order and ordered his subordinates to settle Yang Huiyu.
However, the servants searched the entire Sima Mansion but could not find Yang Huiyu.
"Oops!" Bai Lingjun frowned and screamed inwardly. The scene in the mansion just now was so chaotic. Everyone's eyes were focused on Master Sima, and no one noticed the sheep at all.
The existence of Huiyu.
Now that I have some free time, I suddenly realize that Yang Huiyu has disappeared.
The groom is imprisoned and the bride is missing. There is no doubt that this wedding of the Sima family will be completely reduced to a joke among people all over the world. The reputation of the Sima family will also suffer great damage.
Bai Lingjun turned his attention to the seat where Cao Liang had been sitting before. At this moment, there was no one there. The two maids who had been watching Cao Liang were also knocked unconscious.
"Cao Liang!"
