"The child obeys his father's arrangement." Sima Shi said respectfully.

Sima Yi didn't hide it, originally this conversation with Sima Shi was a heart-to-heart exchange between them, Sima Yi naturally said to him straightforwardly: "Shi'er, among your brothers, Zhao'er is impatient, Gan'er is weak, and the other sons are all mediocre and not as talented as you, but they can assist you, but they are difficult to pick the lead." Only Lun'er, although this son is young, but he is very smart, if he is carefully cultivated, he will become a great weapon in the future, but it is a pity that the father will not see that day. Therefore, there is still a reluctant invitation for the father, you and Lun'er, although they are brothers, but there is a lot of difference in age, the eldest brother is like a father, after the death of the father, I hope you can treat him well, and let him inherit the great cause in the future. ”

Sima Yi has nine sons, the eldest son Sima Shi, the second son Sima Zhao, the third son Sima Gan was born to Mrs. Zhang Chunhua, the fourth son Sima Liang, the fifth son Sima Ling, the sixth son Sima Jing, the seventh son Sima Jun was born to Mrs. Fu, the eighth son Sima Wei was born to Mrs. Zhang, and the ninth son Sima Lun was born to Bai Lingyun. The first eight sons are all adults, but Sima Lun is only nine years old and has not yet reached adulthood.

Among the sons, Sima Yi's most doting is Sima Lun, even if Sima Shi, who is the eldest son, has not received this treatment, Sima Yi has been iron-blooded all his life, cold and thin, keen on power and scheming, and is relatively indifferent to his wife and concubines and heirs, even if his wife Zhang Chunhua, who shares weal and woe with him, is old and decrepit, he is not treated by Sima Yi, and even in front of his subordinates, he calls the old thing, which shows the status of other people in Sima Yi's mind.

However, after having a son Sima Lun in his later years, Sima Yi changed his cold nature and loved this child, one is that Sima Lun is smart and clever, has a very sweet mouth, and is very cute, and the other is that Sima Yi is old and seems to be looking for sustenance emotionally, so he is unusually doting on this child.

Even Sima Yi had the idea of passing on the throne to Sima Lun, but he could only think about it, after all, Sima Lun was still young and had no ability to inherit his great cause, and he had so many brothers, staring at him one by one, Sima Yi was alive, they didn't dare to make any changes, but as soon as Sima Yi died, with their orphans and widows, what would they do to fight with those brothers like tigers and wolves.

Sima Yi knows very well that in the face of power, any family affection is nonsense, because there are countless examples of abolition of the elder and the young, causing power turmoil, and Yuan Shao's fate is very revealing, passing the position to the youngest son is not to love him, but to harm him.

So Sima Yi didn't dare to take risks, even if he loved Sima Lun the most, it was impossible to hand over his position to him at this time, but Sima Yi still had other plans, Sima Shi had no heirs, and he was much older than Sima Lun, and when Sima Lun became an adult, Sima Shi was also old, if Sima Shi was asked to pass the seat to Sima Lun again, it would be completely in line with Sima Yi's expectations.

In this way, Sima Yi does not need to abolish the growth and cause turmoil, and it is completely in line with his heart, if it can be realized, it will be perfect.

However, Sima Yi also knows that in this wealthy house, the brothers may not be able to work with one heart and one mind, because these sons are born to four mothers, between blood, it is inevitable that there will be relatives and alienations, Sima Shi and Sima Zhao are the same mother, the two brothers are the same age, and they are naturally the closest, if nothing else, after Sima Shi dies, he will naturally give priority to Sima Zhao to take his place.

This is obviously not the original intention that Sima Yi wanted, so there was this solemn conversation, Sima Yi clearly told Sima Shi, my position can be given to you, but you can't give this son to others in the future, you can only give it to your younger brother Sima Lun. Don't you have no son, then you will treat Sima Lun as your son, the eldest brother is like a father, and Sima Lun is equivalent to entrusting you with orphans.

What kind of person is Sima Shi, as soon as Sima Yi said this, he was like a mirror, to be honest, Sima Lun is indeed smart, but he does not recruit Sima Shi to be seen, after all, there are often rumors in Sima Yi's mansion, saying that Sima Yi intends to pass on the throne to Sima Lun after a hundred years.

This undoubtedly made Sima Shi have a great resentment, he is the eldest son, originally this position, it is logical for him to inherit it, but out of thin air to kill a dark horse, he will snatch the heir from him, how can this make Sima Shi willing, so Sima Shi has never had a good impression of Sima Lun.

However, now that the dust has settled, it is not unacceptable for Sima Shi to make such an arrangement for Sima Yi, although he is usually closer to Sima Zhao, who is a fellow mother, but his father's order is difficult to disobey, and he dares to have the slightest objection at this time.

"Father's order, the child dare not obey, please rest assured that the child will treat Brother Lun as his own from now on, and there is no second intention." Sima Shi arched his hand.

Sima Yi's eyes were like awe, and he said in a deep voice: "Master, I want you to make a heavy oath and never violate it!" ”

Sima Shi was stunned for a moment, it seems that Sima Yi still can't believe him, but it's no wonder Sima Yi, after all, Sima Yi is alive, he has enough control, but once he dies, all the influence will disappear, whether Sima Shi will keep his promise, Sima Yi can't predict at all, so he will ask Sima Shi to make a heavy oath.

Although the so-called oath binds only a gentleman rather than a villain, Sima Yi still knows Sima Shi's nature very well, and the possibility of him keeping the oath is very high.

Sima Shi hesitated for a moment, but still raised his hand and swore: "The child Sima Shi hereby swears that if his younger brother Sima Lun is a parent, after his death in the future, he will be passed on to him, if he violates this oath, he should be punished by heaven, and his soul will be reduced to hell after death, and he will not be allowed to enter the Sima Clan's temple." ”

Sima Shi's oath is still very particular, he didn't say anything about the five thunders that can't die well, after all, he swore that he would pass on the throne to Sima Lun after death, and it no longer makes sense to die well, but he was not allowed to enter the Sima clan temple after death, which was in line with Sima Yi's wishes.

People in this era regard the belonging of the soul very seriously, and it is much better for the soul to return to the temple after death than to be a lonely ghost and a wild ghost, and it is estimated that this oath is the heaviest oath.

Of course, if Sima Shi is an atheist, then that's a different story.

Sima Yi saw that Sima Shi made such a heavy oath, so he smiled with satisfaction and said: "Master, it's not because your father doesn't trust you, it's really because the situation is forced, Cao Liang is aggressive, only if your brothers are united and work together, can you have the capital to compete with it, so for the great cause of the Sima family, you still need your brothers to help each other and share weal and pain!" ”
