"Oh, you really guessed it right, you old bastard."

Zhu Houzhao was joking on the sidelines.

At this moment, there were hurried footsteps, and an old man with white hair walked in with his back hunched.

…………(beginning)…………

"Zhongda, you are here."

Cao Pi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and waved to Sima Yi who entered the palace.

Seeing Cao Pi vomiting blood, Sima Yi looked horrified. He ran and crawled to the couch, knelt down to support Cao Pi who was leaning on the couch, and looked at the blood in the iron bowl with a horrified expression.

"See it."

"I contracted a lung disease when I was seventeen years old, and it has not been cured for a long time. Now there is no cure."

Cao Pi wiped the remaining blood from the corner of his mouth with silk silk.

Sima Yi took a deep breath.

"I don't know anything about this."

He really doesn’t know.

Cao Pi glanced at Sima Yi and chuckled.

"Even the late emperor didn't know, how could you possibly know."

"If the late emperor had known that my life would not last long, he would never have allowed me to succeed to the throne."

"Zhongda, do you understand now why I am so eager to defeat Wu?"

Sima Yi lowered his head and drooped his lantern eyes.

"I understand, Your Majesty wants to achieve great fame and great achievements in his lifetime."

Cao Pi put down the silk handkerchief and took a long breath.

"Zhongda, if I had listened to you earlier, maybe I wouldn't have lost this battle. Now in my life, I will only be a king of inaction."

Sima Yi paused.

"Your Majesty is attacking Wu, why don't you let me go?"

"I have always dreamed of being able to make contributions to His Majesty's battlefield."

After hearing this, Cao Pi leaned on the couch and stared at Sima Yi deeply. Then he sat up straight and gradually approached Sima Yi, his eyes just a stone's throw away.

"Zhongda, I'm here to ask you."

"If you control the army, who will control you?"

One word.

Sima Yi's body felt like a lightning strike, and he quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

"My minister, Sima Yi, swears that I will never take charge of an army in this life!"

Looking at Sima Yi like this, Cao Pi stared at him for a long time.

Finally.

"Here comes someone,"

Cao Pi shouted sharply.

Suddenly, a person entered from outside the hall, holding an imperial edict in his hand. This imperial edict had obviously been prepared long ago.

Cao Pi glanced at the person coming and raised his hand.

"Declaration."

Before Sima Yi could react, the decree was already in force.

"Sima Yi, who has been loyal to the royal family for twenty-five years, assisted the government diligently, was intelligent and courageous, worked hard and endured no complaints, and was persevering. That is to say, he was awarded the post of General of Hussars, and together with General Cao Zhen and Grand Sima Cao Xiu, he jointly assisted the state affairs. I admire this...

!"

The moment the imperial edict was read out.

Cao Pi suddenly pressed Sima Yi's shoulders and coughed violently. Blood spurted out all over Sima Yi's old face, especially the pair of drooping lantern eyes, which were bleeding.

"Zhongda, Zhongda, Zhongda..."

"Oh my God, cough..."

"My son, my son...

…………(stop)…………

As the scene came to an abrupt end, all the emperor's ministers who were watching above were stunned.

‘What’s behind my son?’

‘Why don’t you let it go?!’

‘It’s the critical moment!’

Ji Boying raised his ruler, and the holographic projection was completely shut down.

"Everyone go back to their places."

One word fell.

No matter how reluctant they are, no matter how willing they are, these emperor's ministers can only return to their respective positions.

"Now, answer me a question."

"Whether what Chai Rong and Cao Pi did is right or wrong."

Ji Boying glanced at the emperor's ministers who had finished sitting down.

In many later versions, it was said that because the Sima family usurped the old Cao family's state, Sima Yi had long been suspected, starting from Cao Cao.

But in fact, at that time, Cao Cao, with Sima Yi's identity and status, was not qualified to be suspected by Boss Cao.

In the eyes of Boss Cao, Sima Yi was at most a talent and could be kept. In the end, Boss Cao closed his eyes and Sima Yi was never reused.

But by the time of Cao Pi, Sima Yi began to completely turn around and became prosperous. Cao Pi had great trust in Sima Yi and treated him completely as a loyal minister.

As soon as he said this, all the emperor and ministers fell silent.

The entire classroom was silent for a moment, and even the sound of mosquitoes flying by the wind could be heard.

"No one answered?"

Ji Boying frowned.

"Since no one answered, I will just name them."

In an instant, the emperors' pupils shrank and they all lowered their heads.

Eyes wandering, you look at me, I look at you.

I wonder why you are not here, Brother Biao. If Brother Biao were here, there wouldn’t be so much trouble.

"Well, it's just you."

"Don't look at other people, stand up and answer."

"Zhu Houcong."

Immortal Jiajing on the seat was stunned: I am here to cultivate immortality, I don’t know how to answer questions...!
