Shi Xie's face was a little unpleasant.

What did Sima Yi say...... It's clear that there is something in the words.

Is this a satire of his own ineffective discipline of the family?

Zhuge Liang had great eyesight, he saw that Shi Xie's face was a little wrong, and hurriedly said: "Fu Junxiu wants to misunderstand, our senior brother speaks a little straight, don't go to your heart......"

Shi Xie snorted in his heart.

Is this also called talking straight?

What a twist and turn!

Zhuge Liang continued: "Actually, the teacher must believe in Fujun, otherwise the two of us would not have made a special trip to Jiaozhou, and the two of us are also kind, after all, there are some things that we are fans of the authorities, and it is not harmful to think about it more." ”

Shi Xie's eyes were half closed, and he slowly stroked his beard.

After a long time, I saw him sigh with emotion: "The meaning of Zhuge Xiaoyou's words, the old man understands, don't worry, the old man knows this matter in his heart...... Come, let's eat first! Talk about that again. ”

Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi are both people who have been through the storm for a long time, and they are not idle people, they naturally understand the truth that the point is to the end.

At that moment, I saw the three of them pushing the cup and changing the lamp, saying something inconsequential.

After eating, Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, led by the waiter, went to the pavilion to rest.

They don't have much to worry about.

Everything that should be said has been said, and there is basically nothing to do with them in the next step, as long as Shi Xie is not a fool, he will definitely investigate.

Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi were smart people, and they could see that Shi Xie had to wait for idle people, and if he wanted to investigate this matter carefully, he would definitely succeed.

Shi Xie has been running Jiaozhou for many years, and his energy here is not comparable to ordinary people.

When the tiger naps, it is not terrible, but once it wakes up, it is the power of the tiger roaring in the mountains and forests.

After Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi left, Shi Xie took a deep breath, calmed down, and began to carefully sort out the recent events in his mind.

When he is old, he is very stable in doing things, he is not in a hurry to start checking immediately, a large-scale investigation will only startle the snake, Shixie is used to smoothing out his own ideas first, and looking for a breakthrough in following the ideas he has found.

Shi Xie was very patient, he just pondered quietly, and he thought about it for two whole hours.

Two hours later, Shi Xie ordered his guards to secretly find his brother Shi Yi.

The four brothers of the Shi family, who ruled the four counties of Jiaozhou, only at this time of the year, returned to Jiaozhi to worship their ancestors and worship the heavens, and reported the work of each county by the way.

This is a long-standing custom in Lingnan, and it has been handed down since Da Shixie ruled Jiaozhou.

And this year's memorial, counting the time, is almost a few days away.

In the past, all the arrangements for the memorial were handed over to Shi Xie's brother, Shi Yi to do.

But this year, Shi Xie felt that he was getting older, and the foundation of Jiaozhou would have to be handed over to his son sooner or later, and it was time for his son to start handling some things, after all, he was the future master of Jiaozhou.

So, in the matter of sacrificing to the sky, Shi Xie handed him over to his heir emblem.

After thinking about it for two hours, Shi Xie instinctively felt that there might be something wrong with him in this matter.

"Brother, this year's ancestor worship is handed over to Hui'er to preside, how are the preparations going?"

Shi Yi hurriedly said: "Hui'er is still very diligent, and everything is implemented in an orderly manner, which is better than what the younger brother has done in previous years." ”

Shi Xie let out an 'oh' sound, and said: "The old man has been busy with official business recently, so he didn't have time to ask more details, Hui'er organized the memorial service, what is the difference between you and previous years." ”

Shi Yi hurriedly said: "The younger brother also knows that the eldest brother is busy with official business, so he didn't bother the elder brother with these things, this year's memorial, Hui'er has made a lot of changes, first of all, this place of sacrifice to the sky, it was changed to Nanshan." ”

"Nanshan?" Shi Xie's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "Why did you suddenly change places?" ”

"It is said that Hui'er found a monk from the original Yuan, divined the hexagram on the sky, investigated feng shui, and saw that Nanshan outside our Jiaozhi City is a treasure land of feng shui, and the time is lucky, so he casts an earthen platform in Nanshan!"

Shi Xie frowned and said, "Just based on the words of the warlock of the traveling party, it is a bit too childish to change the place of sacrifice." ”

Shi Yi said arrogantly: "If the child wants to do it, let him do it!" It's not a big deal. ”

Shi Xie didn't have much to do with Shi Yi, and said, "The problem is in Nanshan Sacrifice to the Heavens...... Is it safe? ”

Shi Yi nodded very confidently and said: "I have also thought of this, Hui'er has been completely prepared, all the main roads near Nanshan, Hui'er has arranged soldiers to guard them, and he also transferred his soldiers and horses in Song Ping to Nanshan in case of accidents!" ”

"What?" Shi Xie's face finally changed: "You said that he transferred all his soldiers and horses in Song Ping to Nanshan?" ”

Shi Yi looked at him puzzled, and said, "Yes, on the day of the sacrifice, isn't it normal to place soldiers and horses in order to prevent accidents?" Big brother, what are you flustered about? ”

Shi Xie slapped the table case heavily, and said angrily: "There are ready-made soldiers and horses in Jiaozhi, why did he deliberately go to Song Ping to transfer troops?" Could it be that Song Ping's soldiers are more elite than Jiaozhi's? Wouldn't this back-and-forth deployment of troops and horses cost money and food? ”

"This ......" Shi Yi suddenly stopped: "Brother, my brother didn't think about it so much, and Hui'er probably didn't think about it so much." ”

"You don't think much, but he doesn't necessarily think less!"

Shi Xie suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "Pass on my military order, don't act rashly for the time being, everything is as usual, you send someone to hold my talisman and go to Jiuzhen County to dispatch soldiers and horses here, the old man wants to see what kind of tricks my son is playing with me." ”

"No."

"Don't reveal a word to me about today's events."

"Don't worry, brother, don't dare."

……

A few days later, officials at all levels in Jiaozhi went to Nanshan with Shixie to pay respects.

Before leaving, Shi Xie sent someone to send a message to Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, asking them to wait quietly, and after the sacrifice to the sky, everything will naturally fall into place.

……

Inside the pavilion.

"It seems that the old fox of Shixie smelled something." Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and smiled.

Sima Yi yawned lazily: "When I started to worship the sky, it seems that the person who acted was quite calculating, but since Shi Xie was already suspicious, it was basically not difficult to quell the chaos." ”

Zhuge Liang nodded in agreement: "Then let's wait for good news, I heard that the person who presided over the arrangement of Jiaozhi Nanshan to worship the heavens this time is Shixie's son Shihui...... If nothing else, the person Zhou Yu contacted in the Shi family was undoubtedly him. ”

Sima Yi said: "No matter who Zhou Yu is contacting, since it has been concluded that this matter is inseparable from the Shi family, then what to say in the future, I have to let Shi Xie Lao'er show some sincerity." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Let him send troops, but not to help Zhou Yu attack Nanchang City, but to attack Zhou Yu with the soldiers of Nanchang City."

Zhuge Liang smiled when he heard this, and secretly said that his senior brother is really a master who does not suffer.

……

A day later, the army of Nanshan returned to Jiaozhi, and Shi Xie personally came to the post house to see Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi.

This old man may know that he can't hide it, so he simply tells the truth when he meets him.

"Thank you to the two little friends on behalf of the prime minister to remind the old man, I didn't expect that the rebel son actually colluded with Zhou Yu, intending to take advantage of the Nanshan sacrifice to the sky, put the old man and several younger brothers under house arrest, and take the ...... It's ridiculous that the old man also laughed at Sun Wentai for giving birth to a child, alas, shame, shame. ”
