Three Kingdoms: The blind box draws Da Qiao at the beginning

Chapter 340 Sima Yi and Zhang Chunhua

It's Chunyu Qiong.

Chunyu Qiong was one of the first few meritorious officials who followed Yuan Shao.

This person loves to drink and often gets very drunk.

However, because he was a minister of Conglong and firmly stood with Shen Pei and other ministers of civil and military affairs to support Yuan Shang as the new King of Zhao, he was still highly valued by Yuan Shang.

Yuan Shang and Shen Pei looked at each other and looked at Chunyu Qiong with some doubts.

Yuan Shang asked: "What rumors?"

Chunyu Qiong stopped in front of the two of them and said anxiously: "I don't know who released the rumor. It's just that the eldest son already knew that all the civil and military officials supported you to inherit the throne of King Zhao, so he swallowed his anger and was willing to reach a reconciliation." , went to Yanzhou to take up a job."

"But, in fact, he already had other plans."

"He killed Feng Ji, whom you sent to monitor the young master, and then prepared to take Yanzhou to join the Kingdom of Wu!"

"The eldest son wants to get the support of Wu State, and then defeat you, the eldest son, to seize the throne of King Zhao!"

Chunyu Qiong's words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake.

Yuan Shang stood up and looked at Shen Pei in horror: "Mr. Shen, what should we do?"

Shen Pei was also shocked by Chunyu Qiong's words.

If this is the case, then Zhao State will definitely be doomed!

They just got the news that Wu State had taken over Bingzhou and had asked Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Zhang He and others to take over Bingzhou.

Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Zhang He and others?

Lu Bu and Zhang Liao were both strong generals from Bingzhou.

In Bingzhou, they all have a high reputation.

Zhang He was one of the Four Court Pillars of Hebei Province.

With these people occupying Bingzhou, it is conceivable that Bingzhou will soon be stabilized.

Previously, Shen Pei was still discussing with Yuan Shang to maintain the current balance of the Zhao Kingdom, temporarily put aside the succession to the throne of King Zhao, and united with the second son Yuan Xi and the eldest son Yuan Tan to send troops together, taking advantage of the fact that Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Zhang He and others had not yet stationed themselves in Bingzhou. When he was able to gain a foothold, he sent troops to attack Bingzhou and regain the territory of Bingzhou.

But who would have known that there were such rumors!

However, although he was shocked, Shen Pei quickly calmed down and said to Yuan Shang: "Master, although this matter is urgent, you cannot believe it completely, let alone panic."

"Otherwise, if the eldest son had not done this, any disturbance on our part would have frightened the eldest son and pushed him to the state of Wu."

"I understand that the country of Zhao is now divided into three, and we need to work together to survive the danger safely."

"Otherwise, we're screwed."

"Moreover, this rumor may also be Wu Guo's plan to alienate people."

"The state of Wu also hopes that the young master will treat the three brothers like this."

Yuan Shang swallowed his saliva, slowly sat down on his knees, looked at Shen Pei and said, "What should we do in the current situation?"

The judge said with a cold look in his eyes: "Find the source of the rumors first. It doesn't matter if you can't find them. Find the places where these rumors first spread and kill all the suspicious people."

"At the same time, an envoy was sent to Puyang, Yanzhou immediately, to tell the eldest son again that he should be aware of the situation with emotion and move with reason, and tell him that it is important for the three brothers to unite."

"If you want to rely on the power of Wu, you can only drink poison to quench your thirst."

"The Wu Kingdom now occupies more than half of the country, and it will never be willing to give up any territory."

Yuan Shang said hurriedly: "Then do as you say, Duke Shen."

Shen Pei left immediately, summoned the defense forces in Yecheng, and went from house to house to inquire about the rumors to explore the source of the rumors.

Anyone who reveals that they heard the rumors will be released without charge.

You will even be rewarded.

Yuan Shang wrote a letter to Yuan Tan personally, and then sent an envoy to deliver the letter to Puyang, Yanzhou, and delivered it to Yuan Tan.

Inside the city of Yecheng.

Sima Yi was sitting in the dark hall, listening to figures reporting on the situation in the city.

"The people in the garment shop in the east of the city were discovered. Several people fought with the officers and soldiers, and eventually they all died in the battle."

"The shopkeeper of the restaurant in the east of the city has arranged for his family to leave Yecheng. The officials have already investigated him. Although he has been fooled for the time being, the shopkeeper feels that they will come back. He asked you for permission, young master."

"."

“All eight members of a family in the medical shop in the south of the city were chopped to death by officers and soldiers.”

"The news came from the refugee number A at the south gate of the city. A messenger was leaving from the south gate of the city. In a hurry, there were dozens of people accompanying him."

Sima Yi remained silent as he listened to these figures reporting one by one.

It was not until he heard the report from "A" that Sima Yi said: "Let people disperse and evacuate Yecheng. There is no need for us to stay any longer."

"Then organize thirty first-class assassins and immediately gather in the mangroves south of the city within an hour."

"Brothers who really can't leave, tell them that their friendship with my Sima family is over. From now on, no one owes anyone, and let them live a good life."

All the figures responded in unison and quickly disappeared.

Sima Yi then stood up and walked into the bedroom.

In the bedroom, a girl of twelve or thirteen years old, who was obviously quite well-behaved and cute, but had a face as cold as ice and a layer of poise that was completely inconsistent with her age, came up to her.

The girl's name is Zhang Chunhua, the eldest daughter of Zhang Wang, the magistrate of Suyi City, Hanoi County.

Because she was very smart since she was a child, she was favored by Sima Yi's father Sima Fang, so she asked Zhang Wang to give her to his second son Sima Yi as his wife.

Sima Yi had talked with her several times and felt that this woman had wisdom and stability that were different from ordinary people, so he kept him by his side to train her. At this moment, seeing Sima Yi coming back, Zhang Chunhua said: "Are we leaving here?"

Sima Yi took off his coat, put on ordinary clothes, sat in front of the dressing mirror and said, "Help me dress up like an old man in his forties or fifties. We are going to assassinate a group of people later. We can't make any mistakes."

Zhang Chunhua took various tools from the dressing mirror and kept working on Sima Yi's face, while saying: "I have never seen you so serious before."

Sima Yi laughed and said, "This is the last chance."

"Wu is too powerful."

"Zhao Guo is no opponent."

"If we don't seize the opportunity now, we won't have the opportunity in the future."

"Moreover, King Wu seems to be very dissatisfied with me and hinted at me several times in front of my father."

"If I didn't do something, he would kill me."

Zhang Chunhua frowned and said, "Do you have any grudge against King Wu?"

Sima Yi also looked sad and said: "How is that possible? I have always been in Hanoi County. Although I have offended many people before, I have never left here. And King Wu and his forces only came here recently."

"You can't hit it with eight poles."

Zhang Chunhua clicked his tongue and said, "This King Wu is not a good person either!"

Sima Yi said quietly: "We don't know if it's a good thing or not, but it is indeed a difficult master."

"You know, in just nine years, he has gone from being a member of a branch of the Lu family to this!"

"It's almost comparable to Emperor Gaozu."

"The problem is that compared to Emperor Gaozu, he put more emphasis on young people."

"The Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Lu Xun who stayed in our house before are the young people who have not yet made their mark."

"But he is so smart."

"I heard that there was another Deng Zhi in the Wu Kingdom. With his sharp tongue, he forced Ma Chao of Xiliang to drag Cao Eunuch down for three years. He exhausted Cao Eunuch's energy and energy, and gave Wu Guo a chance to win. take."

"There was also Zhang Ji, who also relied on his sharp tongue to get Ma Teng to give up his family business and take his family members except Ma Chao to work in Xudu."

"It is said that there is another Zhou Buyi, who is currently in Wu County."

"This person is young and has a photographic memory. He can repeat even military commands verbatim."

Sima Yi sighed: "Originally, I thought that I, Sima Yi, must be a hero in the world, no one can match me."

"Now I realize that the world is so big and I still need to travel everywhere."

Zhang Chunhua said worriedly: "But King Wu is targeting you, what if he targets you -"

Sima Yi smiled and said, "Don't worry about this for now. Although I don't understand why King Wu is targeting me, King Wu is not a murderous person."

"I feel more like I did something wrong and if I let him know about it, he would knock the mountain and shake the tiger."

"Besides, he put Zhuge Liang on top of me."

"Zhuge Liang is his second brother-in-law."

"If I act more loyal in front of Zhuge Liang, I'll be fine."

"As for Zhuge Liang, he is indeed somewhat smart, but for now, that's all!"

"Although King Wu has a good sense of people, he cannot escape the situation of reusing his relatives."

"It is said that the King of Wu once told Zhao Yun, the captain of Xuzhou, that if a person is a high-ranking official and well-paid, but cannot be nepotistic, then this person is an unqualified person and he will despise him. Because the reason why a person wants to make achievements is for Let your loved ones live a good life, and let the chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.”

Zhang Chunhua's cold face suddenly burst into laughter and said: "Is this really what King Wu can say?"

Sima Yi smiled and said: "I don't know, it doesn't feel like it. But, it is somewhat similar. In short, I think this King of Wu may be different from the previous kings, so I am not worried that he will kill me. .”

Zhang Chunhua transformed Sima Yi into a middle-aged man in his early forties, and then said: "Okay."

Sima Yi stood up and said, "You should also change into ordinary clothes. We will treat each other as ancestors and grandchildren."

Zhang Chunhua hummed and left the bedroom.

When Sima Yi looked at the dressing mirror and was about to leave, Zhang Chunhua had already put on a dirty long dress.

Zhang Chunhua helped Sima Yi leave.

The two of them left the dilapidated ancestral hall and blended in with the crowd. Finally, they left the south gate of the city and came to a woods five miles away.

Thirty figures from all walks of life led horses and quickly surrounded them.

Sima Yi and Zhang Chunhua each led a horse, got on their horses, and galloped out.

Thirty figures followed closely behind.

dusk.

Neihuang County.

The team of envoys sent by Yuan Shang rushed to the city gate, and one of them showed his identity token to the gate guard.

The city gate guards rushed into the city.

The envoy team then entered the city while looking around the city vigilantly.

The people in the city were all busy, and there was no one in particular.

The messenger team breathed a sigh of relief.
