In addition to Jiang Ji, Sikong Gaorou, Shizhong Xu Yun, Shangshu Chen Tai, Qidu Wei Xun Yi and others also came to Sima Mansion.

This time, Sima Yi didn't pretend to be sick again, but called a few of them into the study and talked for an afternoon, until the time when the lamp was in hand, Jiang Ji and the others said goodbye and left.

As for the content of their conversation, others have no way of knowing, because Sima Shi led a team of family soldiers to guard the outside of the study, even if it was someone in Sima Mansion, they were not allowed to approach, even Sima Zhao came back, saw Sima Shi's heavily guarded appearance and was very curious, and came forward to take a look, but he was also blocked by Sima Shi outside, and he was not allowed to approach the study.

Sima Zhao couldn't help but wonder very much, you must know that Jiang Ji Gaorou and others are also frequent visitors to Sima Mansion, and they have often been in and out of the mansion before, but they have never been as close to the enemy as today, Sima Zhao was very strange, so he asked Sima Shi: "Big brother, what is the situation?" ”

Sima Shi said calmly: "Father has something to discuss with Jiang Taiwei and them, so don't disturb them for the time being." ”

Sima Zhao had to retreat obediently, don't look at Sima Shi's calm face, but in the calm, there was a murderous aura, which made people stunned.

At the time of the lantern, Jiang Ji and the others came out, and Sima Shi smiled and bowed their hands, it could be seen that several of them were in a good mood, and Sima Shi sent them outside the mansion, and then returned.

At this time, Sima Yi suddenly summoned Sima Shi and Sima Zhao to enter, Sima Shi's heart was like a mirror, and he entered calmly, but Sima Zhao was confused and didn't know what to do.

In fact, it is no wonder that Sima Zhao is not guilty, because all the preparatory work in the early stage was handled by Sima Shi, and no one else in Sima Mansion knew about it, and Sima Zhao has been kept in the dark.

The two brothers entered the study, Sima Yi was standing long at the moment, his waist was straight, from his body, instead of seeing a little old and sick, he was in good spirits, his face was radiant, and his eyes were as sharp as eagles, so bright that people didn't dare to force them to look.

Sima Yi was famous for his eagle eye on the wolf, and he was even suspicious of Cao Cao for this, thinking that he was not a human minister, so Cao Pi deliberately beware of him.

"Father!" Sima Shi and Sima Zhao both arched their hands.

Sima Yi looked at them with a soft gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Cao Shuang drove out of the city with the Son of Heaven, it is our best chance to get into trouble, the rise and fall of the Sima clan is tonight, so we can only succeed, not fail!" My father has already negotiated with Jiang Zitong and Gao Wenhui, and the major families in Luoyang City will fully support us, but the success or failure of this matter still depends on us. Shi'er, you lead the troops to guard the Luoshui pontoon bridge outside the Xuanyang Gate, cut off the return route of Cao Shuang and others, Zhao'er, you lead the troops to guard the palace, beware of someone taking advantage of the chaos to sneak attack the palace, go to the arsenal for the father's meeting, take the ordnance, and act on the fifth watch, without delay! ”

"The child obeys." Sima Shi bowed down to receive the order.

Sima Zhao was dumbfounded and at a loss, if he heard it correctly, what Sima Yi said just now was that he was about to launch a mutiny, but this matter came too suddenly, Sima Zhao was completely unaware of it in advance, and now he suddenly told him this, which inevitably made him feel a little confused.

Sima Yi was not surprised by Sima Zhao's expression, indeed, such a major matter, it is impossible to deal with it calmly on anyone's head, he looked at Sima Zhao with soft eyes, and said: "Zhao'er, because it is a confidential matter, I didn't disclose it to you in advance, in fact, this matter has been prepared by my father for a long time." I have endured a lifetime for my father, constantly retreating, just seeking to calm people, but the Cao family is still pressing step by step, not forgiving, our Sima family has done their best for his Cao family, but they are facing the danger of dying and annihilating, so we have no way to retreat, success or failure is blunt, in this move, so my father wants you to do your best to fight for the glory and disgrace of the Sima family! ”

Sima Zhao finally understood, in fact, he had long been dissatisfied with Sima Yi being excluded and attacked, and had been hoping that he could fight back and recover power.

Sima Yi turned his head to Sima Shi and said, "Master, immediately send someone to summon Hu Fen and ask him to immediately block all the ferries of the Yellow River, and not a single piece of wood can be entered into the water." ”

"Yui." Sima Shi respectfully received the order.

The blockade of the Yellow River crossing was originally part of their plan, and the time to launch the mutiny was at five o'clock in the morning tomorrow, and at this time, it was the right time to convey the order to block the Yellow River crossing to Hanoi Taishou Hu Fen, so that the news from Luoyang could not reach the north of the Yellow River in any case.

Sima Yi has always been deeply jealous of the Bingzhou army, but once the order to close the river, and the news of Luoyang on the Bingzhou side will be at least many days later, so that Sima Yi will have enough time to deal with everything in Luoyang.

"Go down and rest, recharge your batteries, and prepare for tomorrow." Sima Yi commanded lightly.

Sima Shi and Sima Zhao retreated, Sima Shi was naturally calm because of his single-handedness, as if the mutiny was like a commonplace, and it would not move him at all, at dinner, how to eat or how to eat, after eating, he fell asleep, and even Sima Zhao could hear his clear snoring.

Of course, Sima Zhao does not have the open-minded state of mind of Sima Shi, the whole dinner, he is unpleasant, like chewing wax, after the meal he and Sima Shi live in the same room, Sima Shi snores like thunder, and sleeps very soundly, but Sima Zhao is tossing and turning, sleepless all night.

On the fourth watch, Sima Shi woke up, and he jumped up with a look like a dignified gaze.

Sima Zhao's spiritual head is too far behind Sima Shi, he has not slept all night, his eyes are full of red bloodshots, and his spirit has shrunk a lot.

Sima Shi said with concern: "Second brother, how is it, I see that you are a little sluggish?" ”

Sima Zhao hurriedly said: "Big brother, it doesn't matter, I can hold on and guarantee to complete the task." ”

Sima Shi smiled and said no more, in fact, Sima Zhao's nervousness, he can also understand, only because he has been handling this matter, so he will not feel nervous, and Sima Zhao just heard about the mutiny, and immediately ordered to guard the palace, this also has to be psychologically bearable, otherwise, he will be scared to death.

Although the sky is dark at the moment, but the east still barely shows a trace of fish belly white, this night, finally to pass, for the Sima family, it will also be the moment when the darkness passes away and the light returns, Sima Shi is in good spirits and strides out of Sima Mansion.
