The Three Kingdoms of the Widow

The heavy city gates seemed to have no end, one by one opened in front of the eyes, and one by one closed behind.

But Sima Yi no longer had these gates in his eyes, nor could he hear the crisp sound of horseshoes stepping on the stone road in his ears. Cao Rui's terrifying face and the ominous "see me" like a spell kept circling in his mind. noodle".

Sima Yi resented herself, it was because she was careless, she should have known all this, and she should have taken precautions before going out, but she didn't, maybe it was because of selfishness that she didn't want to believe, she shouldn't take chances, thinking that before leaving Cao Rui’s energy is a sign of health, thinking that Cao Rui will definitely survive this year safely, thinking that all changes will be in time after he returns... Many parents are like this, there is a kind of "Anyway, I will be bound soon, Just let him do as he pleases for a few more minutes" comforting psychology, what is this?Spoiling in disguise?

I'm afraid Sima Yi himself will never admit that he still has "doting" feelings for Cao Rui.

In the dead of night, Sima Yi would also review his behavior a little bit, and several times made up his mind to tell himself that Sima Shi and Sima Zhao were his sons, but he hesitated when he saw Cao Rui.Doing so will not only hurt Cao Rui, but Sima Shi as well.

But now Sima Yi didn't have time to think about it, all she could think about was going back to the palace to see Cao Rui.Now she finally doesn't have any chances, it's not because of that ominous dream, the dream is illusory after all, what makes her confused, is that she received Cao Rui's five edicts on the road for three consecutive days, and the edicts contradict themselves:

"When I look at it from the side, I will go straight into the pavilion and look at my face."

"Use Zi, Fang, King Yan and the general to assist King Qi."

"The king of Yan resigns, the general assists my son, and Sima returns quickly."

"You must not mislead me."

"Zhongda is fast!"

Sima Shi caught up with his father, and he also read the edict. He was very worried about Cao Rui, thinking that there might be fraud: "There must be changes in Luoyang, but the true or false of your majesty's illness is unknown. I have always been jealous of my family, so we must guard against it!"

Sima Yi pretended not to hear, beat Ma Yangchen and left Master Sima behind.

Entering Luoyang, someone had already followed him. Sima Shi raised his vigilance to guard against coup d'étatists rushing out of the streets at any time, but Sima Yi seemed to have suddenly paralyzed his political nerves, and his heart was only on Cao Rui.

"The old slave leads the way for the Taiwei..." Before the waiter could finish his sentence, Sima Yi pushed him away: "No need, I will go to Jiafu Hall by myself!"

The servant was stunned. Before he said anything, how did Sima Yi know that Cao Rui was in Jiafu Hall?

Sima Yi ran straight to the inner hall, and accidentally bumped into a person at the door.

"The Taiwei came back so soon? Is it true that he traveled more than [-] miles day and night?"

Sima Yi recognized that it was Cao Shuang, but before he could say a word, he walked into the hall.

"It's so rude to ignore the general." Cao Zhao said dissatisfiedly from behind.

"Shut up!" Cao Shuang scolded impatiently.

Sima Yi rushed to the bed, all manners and dogmas were thrown out of the blue.

"Ruier!"

Cao Rui, who was so thin that he was out of shape, was originally in a coma, but was suddenly awakened by this call, and he slowly opened his eyes: "Who?"

Sima Yi's tears kept falling and wet the side of the couch, she was choked up and unable to speak.

Cao Rui had already recognized her, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he stretched out his arm like dry wood from under the quilt: "You are back..."

"Rui'er...I'm back...I should have come back earlier, it's all my fault..." Sima Yi broke down in tears.

"I am dying, and I want to entrust my funeral to you...Jun and Shuang assist the King of Qi. Today...I can see you face to face, and I can tell you my heartfelt... words. I have nothing...no regrets..."

Sima Yi held Cao Rui's hand tightly, tears streaming down his face: "Rui'er...it will be fine, there are famous doctors in Liaodong, let them treat...it will be fine..."

Cao Rui smiled wryly, and rolled his eyes to look at the kneeling and crying child, who was only eight or nine years old: "Fang'er..."

When Qi Wang Cao Fang heard Cao Rui calling her, she got up crying and walked forward.

Cao Rui hardly had the strength to move his limbs anymore, he just tried his best to signal with his eyes, looked at Cao Fang, and then his eyes fell on Sima Yi: "Go..."

Cao Fang was very obedient, and seemed to be familiar with the rehearsal. She walked up to Sima Yi, sobbing, and put her arms around Sima Yi's neck: "Taiwei..."

Sima Yi's eyes widened suddenly.

"This is my son... Don't mistake me!"

Cao Fang let go, Sima Yi looked at him in surprise: "...Prince?"

After not being here for a year, Cao Fang unexpectedly appeared out of thin air. Looking carefully, there is actually a few traces of Cao Rui, but... Cao Rui has never had children?A few years ago, a son finally died, why did such a big son suddenly appear!

Cao Rui looked at Cao Fang, took a few breaths, and said with all his strength: "Death... is more tolerable, I will endure death for you...Jun Qi and Shuang Fu..."

A sentence of "endurance to death" made Sima Yi almost lose control: "No! Ruier, you can't do it! What's wrong with this... The first emperor is like this, and Ruier is like this! I am much older than you! Why not me! I've had enough!"

"I'd rather go for you..." Sima Yi's face was pressed against Cao Rui's hand, tears were like an endless spring.

Cao Rui struggled to say his last sentence, and he must say it: "You...you are mine..."

Sima Yi looked at Cao Rui, who was losing his vitality at a visible speed, and his heart was pounding. Even he couldn't believe that his son, who had been awkward for more than 30 years, was finally going to end this last regret at the last moment. ...

Cao Rui also looked at her, his eyes began to lose sight: "My..."

Although it is just a title, it is a title that has been hidden in Cao Rui's heart for more than 30 years, and it is also the title that Sima Yi has been waiting for for more than 30 years, and he almost can't wait in despair...

"……of……"

"Rui'er! Say what you want! I'm here! I'm listening!"

"Your Excellency..."

On the Dinghai day of the first lunar month in the third year of Jingchu, Cao Rui died in Jiafu Hall in Luoyang.On the Kuichou day of this month, he was buried in Gaoping Mausoleum.

After Cao Rui's death, Sima Yi was not as distraught as when Cao Pi died. When Cao Shuang and others entered the Jiafu Hall, they saw her holding the dead Cao Rui's body in a daze, without saying a word.

Cao Zhao wanted to make trouble, but Cao Shuang glared at him.

Immediately after, Sima Shi also came.

"What's a casual cavalry servant here for?" Cao Zhao still remembered that Master Sima almost killed him back then, so he hated it.

Master Sima didn't bother to talk to him at all, and walked up to Sima Yi directly: "Father, we have to go back, we can't stay in the palace for long."

"..."

Sima Yi didn't respond, Cao Fang who was standing next to him seemed to be afraid of Master Sima, and tugged at Sima Yi's sleeve: "Taiwei..."

Master Sima glanced at Cao Fang, grabbed his front and dragged him to the front, "King Qi? Your Majesty's adopted son? But now you have to be the late emperor's adopted son. What are you doing here?"

Cao Fang was so frightened that she wanted to cry, Sima Yi seemed to wake up suddenly: "Master, stop! That's Rui'er's son! Don't be rude!"

Master Sima snorted coldly and pushed Cao Fang back to his seat, and came up to help Sima Yi: "Father, let's go, Your Majesty is doing well, the officials who administer rituals are waiting outside, we can't delay."

In this way, Sima Yi left Jiafu Hall with the "help" of his son. Master Sima's behavior angered some people around him, but Cao Shuang, who was the same Minister of Tuogu as Sima Yi, didn't say a word, and others dared not speak out. .

Master Sima supported Sima Yi to go out: "Father, you are still the best. I saw the three edicts every five days, and I can only think that there are changes in the palace, which may be detrimental to the Sima family. The best way is to stop and wait for the situation to stabilize. Father But you returned quickly without any hesitation, and you were indeed entrusted with a heavy responsibility. You can see far, who would have thought that His Majesty would change his mind when he saw you, and completely abolished Cao Yu, the King of Yan, removed Cao Zhao, and even Sun Zi No close ministers like Liu Fang are needed, only you and Cao Shuang are used. But—what did you base your judgment on in the first place?"

Sima Yi's footsteps stopped suddenly: "I said I didn't judge, do you believe me?"

Sima Shi also stopped.

"I didn't have time to think so much at the time, I just wanted to hurry back to Luoyang... Maybe what you said made sense, Luoyang has changed—it's not impossible. So you just think I took a risk, and luckily nothing happened. "

"...Actually, dad, you don't have to worry. I made an agreement with Guo Zhaoyi—now Queen Mother Guo—a year ago to marry the eldest daughter to his younger brother. With such internal support, if Luoyang wants to If something goes wrong, we should have gotten wind of it in advance.”

"Hui'er's child..." Sima Yi suddenly remembered that he has five granddaughters, "Is she willing to do this?"

"Who? Queen Mother Guo? She is willing to..."

"I'm asking about my granddaughter."

Sima Shi was silent for a few seconds: "I haven't asked. If Dad wants to know the answer, I can go back and ask."

Alas - Sima Yi let out a long sigh. This son is good at everything, but he is surprisingly cold: "I know you don't like Hui'er, but my daughter is still your daughter! How can a father be so indifferent! Isn't he here? In your heart, you don't care about anyone except yourself! Including Fang'er today, you—"

"So that's how it is," Sima Shi said, "Fang'er...that's why my father stopped me. It seems that you really believe that Cao Fang of unknown origin is Cao Rui's son..."

"Presumptuous!" Sima Yi was furious, and slapped his son, "Whether he is a parent or not, he is the heir of the late emperor, the current crown prince, and the emperor who will ascend the throne soon!"

"So what? He's not the grandson of Emperor Wen..."

The word "Emperor Wen" made Sima Yi's raised hand fall down weakly. Master Sima was right. Whether he is Cao Rui's own son may not matter to ministers, but to Sima Yi, it is completely different. .

"Ziyuan, if...Fang...Cao Fang is really the late emperor's son, wouldn't you treat him like this?"

"Yes, father."

Only hate him more.

"Father, do you want to know if he is the late emperor's biological son?"

"It's useless to think about it."

"No, you can do a 'blood test'."

Sima Yi almost didn't know what to say about this child: "Can the emperor's blood be tested casually? What will the minister say if he knows? Besides, the late emperor has passed away, how do you test it?"

"You don't need to use the late emperor, and the ministers won't know about it. It's easy to test it in private." Sima Shi urged his father, "Your blood is enough."

Cao Rui's death can't be said to have no effect, but compared to Cao Pi's time, Wei's foreign aggression pressure is much less now, Sun Quan is also old, and has little desire to expand. Although Jiang Wei of Western Shu is more persistent than his teacher Zhuge Liang in the Northern Expedition, The lack of ability is also a fact.

Sima Shi's official position was gradually promoted.

On March [-]rd, it is the Shangsi Festival again. People and women are all dressed up in the streets and come out for an outing. Master Sima rides a horse and slowly walks against the flow of people in the street.

There was a sudden laugh, and Master Sima casually turned his head to look, but was taken aback.

Whose woman wears the same clothes as the person deep in my memory, wears the same bun, wears the same makeup, has the same curved willow eyebrows, full almond eyes, similar lips with mandarin duck prints, and similar profile, Similar slender neck.

It just passed by.

Sima Shi frowned and thought about it, the person next to her seemed to be a sheep.

After entering the Sima mansion and bypassing the backyard, Master Sima originally wanted to go back to rest, but he heard the sound of arguing in Sima Zhao's room. After a while, he saw the pregnant Wang Yuanji dragging Sima Zhao to the front hall.

Sima Zhao expressed reluctance: "I won't go..."

"Go! Go see your parents!"

"I do not want to go……"

"It's a good thing! We already have a son, and my uncle doesn't have one until now. If it's a boy, I'll adopt him to my uncle after birth. How wonderful!"

Sima Shi felt a little unhappy. He dragged on for a few years and hadn't formally married the Wu family. Wu Zhi had already passed away, and his desire to get married became even weaker. But if he didn't get married, he would have no sons. Daughter, I don't know if the luck of having a son has been transferred to the younger brother. Sima Zhao and Wang Yuanji seem to be mad at the elder brother and have sons one after another. Sima Yan was born a few years ago. As the eldest grandson of the family, he is quite Loved by Sima Yi, now that Wang Yuanji's belly is growing again, it is said that she may still be her son.

So not having a son is the most painful thing in Master Sima's heart, especially when he hears his brother's family say it, it makes people feel even more uncomfortable.

"Yuan Ji, don't make noise here. Chunhua just took medicine and fell asleep. If you have something to do, tell me." Sima Yi came out from the bedroom and told Bai Shi outside to close the door, "You guys go down first."

The Bai family obediently led people to retire, and no matter how favored she was, she was still a concubine, and she was not qualified to listen to other people's family affairs.As soon as Zhang Chunhua fell ill, although Sima Yi handed over the management of the inner house to Mrs. Bai, he didn't mean to look at him differently. In order to prevent Zhang Chunhua from seeing Mrs. Bai making trouble, when Sima Yi visited his wife, he always left Mrs. Bai on the porch to blow the air. A few days later, the doctor hired with a lot of money said that Zhang Chunhua's illness was not curable. Sima Yi pointed directly at Mrs. Bai and said to the doctor, "Heal my wife, and I would like to donate it with a thousand gold, and I will give this woman to you."

Bai Shi didn't respond, it was fate.

Seeing Bai and the others retreat, Wang Yuanji and Sima Zhao knelt in front of Sima Yi, not daring to say the matter loudly. Of course, it was mainly Wang Yuanji who said it. Sima Zhao hung his head and did not speak. Only Wang Yuanji stabbed him to make him express his opinion. Only when it is time to make some vague words such as "um".

"Needless to say the high-sounding words, Yuan Ji, are you going to adopt this child to Shi'er?"

"Yes, father."

Sima Yi closed his eyes and paused for two seconds: "Yuan Ji, don't be clever."

"It's... eh?!"

"Don't explain. There are not many smart people in this family, but none of them are stupid. Dad can see your little thoughts. You think Shi'er will be my heir in the future and inherit everything from me. You It's a pity that Zhao'er can't get a share of the pie, right? Shi'er has no son now, you adopt your own son to him, and if Shi'er passes away in the future, this child has the right to inherit everything from Shi'er. Is it your son? Master’s, isn’t it still yours?”

Wang Yuanji was tongue-tied.

Sima Yi sighed: "Yuan Ji, why did I take the risk of offending Wu Jizhong and agree to your marriage with Zhao'er? Because there are too many scheming people in this family. It is rare to have someone as straightforward as you. The ability to protect myself, I value your strengths very much. Who knows that you are also starting now... There is no shortage of people with skill and brains in this family, and the strategy of harming others has only one consequence-it is not good for yourself. Do you admit it?"

Wang Yuanji took a deep breath: "Father, this concubine really has good intentions, as my father said, I never thought about it."

"Okay then," Sima Yi said with a blank expression, "Then let me make a condition. If you insist on your own opinion after listening to it, I will admit that I think too much. Since you want to adopt your son to Shi'er, it's fine, but after the adoption, He is Shi'er's son, no matter what he does in the future, it has nothing to do with you and Zhao'er whether he is Shi'er's heir or not. He has only one father, and that is Shi'er! He also has only one mother, who is Shi'er's official wife ! Do you agree?"

Wang Yuanji didn't answer right away, Sima Zhao panicked: "Father... Father... this..."

"I'm asking Yuan Ji, you shut up!" Sima Yi looked at Wang Yuanji, waiting for Wang Yuanji's answer.

Wang Yuanji gritted her teeth and clenched her fists: "Okay! Words must be practiced. What my father said, I will obey everything! Just follow my father's words! If this child is a son, he will be adopted by the uncle, and the concubine and the son will be together. Nothing to do with it!"

Sima Yi nodded in satisfaction, but Sima Zhao was greatly shocked. Before he could speak, he was dragged away by Wang Yuanji just like when he came. From the beginning to the end, he had no right to decide this matter.

Master Sima looked at the backs of his younger brother and sister-in-law, smiled, and turned from behind the pillars in the porch: "Father."

Sima Yi looked at the eldest son who was getting deeper and deeper in the city: "Did you hear that?"

"I heard."

"how to think?"

"Listen to dad."

"If you marry Mrs. Wu in the future, you will have children of your own." Sima Yi comforted Master Sima. On this issue, history and what not, Sima Yi thinks my son is not physically problematic. I don't believe I can't have a grandson without me!

"Speaking of Wu, I have something to discuss with my father."

"kindness?"

"I want to regret the marriage."

Master Sima spoke very calmly.

"reason."

"Wu Jizhong has passed away, we don't need his support anymore, Wu's family reputation is not good, his daughter also has a marriage contract, and Wu himself seems to be very disgusted with this marriage..."

Sima Yi felt that this kind of statement was too tiring: "Just tell me who you have your eyes on again."

What kind of tricks are you playing in front of the old man? This kind of excuse is overused.

Sima Yi smiled, and sure enough, he couldn't hide it from Sima Yi: "Father is wise, he should be Yang Hu's sister."

"Should? You're going to talk about marriage, even if you're not sure who the other party is?"

"I saw it by chance, I haven't had time..."

"Well...Yang Hu's sister, is it Yang Yu? My grandfather is the prefect of Nanyang, my father is the prefect of Shangdang, my grandfather is Cai Yong and Cai Bojie, and my aunt is Xin Xianying, the daughter of King Xin Pixin... Yes, this family is good. , you go and have a look, if you are gentle and polite, then settle down. Get married early, your mother may be happy if she knows about this, and your health will be fine."

"Yes, father."

On the day of Sima Shi and Yang Yu's wedding, Zhang Chunhua was too sick to get up to receive the ceremony. Only Sima Yi was there, and when he helped Yang Yu to salute, Sima Yi saw the outline of the daughter-in-law, and couldn't help sighing: "So you look like her, no wonder. "

When Yang Yu heard Sima Yi's words, she remembered that before she got married, she asked her aunt, Xin Xianying, who was known for her wisdom, what she should do after marrying Sima Shi.After all, Xia Houhui's lessons learned from the past are there.

Xin Xianying replied solemnly: "Keep your duty as a wife, don't disobey him no matter what he does, tell the truth when encountering things, don't try to deceive him, put yourself in a very humble position, let him feel that you are It was really hard work and sincerity to please him."

So Yang Yu immediately went to visit Sima Yi's two concubines - Fu Shi and Zhang Shi, and asked them who he was like. They watched him grow up, so they naturally knew about Master Sima.

Fu Shi and Zhang Shi thought again and again: "Young Madam is unparalleled in beauty, and there are almost no people in our memory who can resemble Madam."

"Madame, please think again."

"Uh..." Fu said hesitantly, "If you really want to say, the profile of the madam looks a bit like Empress Xian Wenzhao, but it was many years ago, and we only saw it once or twice, so I don't remember it so clearly. But Empress Wenzhao is much older than the Eldest Young Master, and the Eldest Young Master has never heard of her... I'm afraid it doesn't matter."

"Maybe it's Mrs. Xiahou?" Mrs. Zhang added next to her, "Madam, please don't blame me, she is the eldest son's first wife. Mrs. Xiahou belongs to the clan, and she often saw Empress Wenzhao when she was young. It is inevitable that there are similarities in her dress and behavior. Since Mrs. Empress Wen Zhao is similar, and probably also similar to Mrs. Xiahou. Moreover, Mrs. Xiahou and the eldest son are very affectionate, and they have five daughters in five years. If it weren't for the plague... Sigh!"

Yang Yu thanked the two old ladies, and then thought about it for a day. When Master Sima came back at night, she made up her mind and said to Master Sima, "General, I want to change my name."

"What's the name?"

"Although my concubine is the general's wife, I have never seen the general show off her joyful face. I feel very uneasy. I asked the people in the mansion today, and they said that the general has someone in his heart. Seeing that my concubine has similarities with her, I married her. It is a great fortune to be favored by the general, and I have nothing else to ask for. The person in the general's heart must not be forgotten. I ask myself to change my name and add characters to take his name. I will always remember it and accompany the general to comfort the general. .”

Yang Yu's words were humble, Sima Shi was stunned at first, and then felt relieved, this wife seemed to be married to the right one, she worked so hard to please herself so as not to cause trouble for herself, she was willing to be a substitute, although the method was a little clumsy, but the starting point was OK

It is better to commemorate alone than two people, Master Sima thought so, and nodded: "Okay, then you will change your name to Yang Jin..."

"Yang Huiyu! What does the general think?" Yang Yu's sincere eyes sparkled.

Master Sima was surprised: "Why?"

Yang Huiyu was also taken aback: "Why...the person in the general's heart...isn't the original wife Xiahou? Could it be someone else?"

"...Yes, it's her, you're right. Yang Huiyu, it's a good name, so let's leave it at that." In the end, Master Sima compromised, and commemoration and so on could only be the hard work of one person.

The whole thing was nothing but a misunderstanding.

Yang Huiyu breathed a sigh of relief, and held Sima Shi shyly: "General..."

Just as Sima Shi was about to say something, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door: "Young master! Ma'am... I'm afraid Ma'am is in trouble!"

Outside Zhang Chunhua's bedroom, a large group of people knelt down, men and women, Sima Master Sima Zhao was at the front, and Sima Yi accompanied his wife in the room, never leaving.

Zhang Chunhua has been sick for a long time, his appetite has gradually decreased, and he has not had water or rice for two days. Sima Yi stayed by the couch, remembering who said: No matter how serious the illness is, if you can eat, you will be fine; People really can't do it.

Therefore, Zhang Chunhua is really dying.

Sima Yi looked at Zhang Chunhua and remembered the past. From the time they met to now, basically Zhang Chunhua was playing the role of her wife when she was by her side.They have countless conflicts, but they have stumbled to this day. If there is a next life, maybe they will continue because of habit?Sima Yi didn't like Zhang Chunhua, she didn't like it from the beginning to the end, but she never thought that one day she would live a life without Zhang Chunhua by her side.They are gangsters, since they are accomplices, they should always maintain this balance, right?How could anyone quit first?Sima Yi is willing to give up all her family property, as long as Zhang Chunhua's life can be exchanged. In this time and space, Zhang Chunhua, who has been with her all the way to the present, is her last straw. She is unwilling to let go no matter what. Of course, this is not love, but What is it if it is not love?

What a contradictory and strange creature man is.

"Zhongda..."

Sima Yi held Zhang Chunhua's outstretched hand, listening to Zhang Chunhua's near-death gasp: "I can't do it..."

"No," Sima Yi clasped Zhang Chunhua's hand tightly with both hands, bent down, and whispered in Zhang Chunhua's ear, "You can't die, and the disaster will live for a thousand years."

Zhang Chunhua shook his head slightly: "Really..."

"I hate it when you say that, you should lie to me, just like what you did before: lie to me that Cao Pi is gone, lie to me to kill my mother, lie to me to kill the female family members, lie to me and hook up with Sima Fu, Lied to me that you were sick... You lied to me all your life, now you want to be an honest person? Don't you think it's too hasty? "

"I'm sorry..." Zhang Chunhua confessed.

Sima Yi couldn't adapt at all: "Why do you apologize? You actually apologize! You are sorry to me, of course you are sorry to me! Not only you, many people are sorry to me! What about the promised life? No one keeps promises! Sister Guo leaves Now, Cao Mengde followed, and now I don’t know where these two are so heartless and happy underground; Cao Pi and Cao Zihuan are the most hateful, he left first, Rui’er learned exactly the same as him! Leave it to me, their father and son will leave quickly!"

Sima Yi looked up again: "Zhao Xiaoyun also left, and then Zhuge... all left me here alone... Now, now, even you are going to leave me and go first! You are not going to be a queen Is it? You haven’t become a queen yet! You are going to leave without becoming a queen? Are you willing?!”

Zhang Chunhua just watched Sima Yi's outburst quietly, or maybe she didn't watch at all. After Sima Yi calmed down, she continued: "There is only one thing... I... Ganer..."

"Don't worry." After venting, everything will be back on track, Sima Yi promised Zhang Chunhua, "Gan'er is my son, my own son."

"That's good..." Zhang Chunhua felt relieved, "And...Qinghe...I actually regret it..."

"What's the use of regretting now?" Sima Yi held back his tears.

"Arrange a door for Yan'er... so dear..."

"Don't talk about them. If they are alive, I will arrange them carefully. Don't worry about them."

"En... Zhongda, help me up..."

"What are you going to do?" Sima Yi asked, but his subordinates did not dare to neglect, and slowly helped Zhang Chunhua to lean on his back.

"Sing "Song of Flower Time" to me again...I liked it very much the first time I heard it...I will remember the first time I met you..." Zhang Chunhua whispered in Sima Yi's ear.

This may be Zhang Chunhua's last request.

"Okay." Sima Yi calmed down:

See Narcissus in January

After the narcissus blooms, the plum blossom...

"No...it's not this...it's not 'Yi Xian'...Yi Xian rhyme, it's 'Er Xiao'..." Zhang Chunhua interrupted Sima Yi.

"Oh, good." Sima Yi knew that Huashige had many rhymes, but the rhyme 'Yixian' was used the most.She thought about the lyrics and hummed again:

January January Narcissus Jiao

Daffodils and plum blossoms

Forsythia blooms after plum blossoms

The mountain peach cuckoo is also smiling

……

Sima Yi suddenly thought of something.

"Chunhua, how do you know Er Xiao Yun! I've only sung the first rhyme here, how did you know there are other rhymes in Huashi's song?"

Zhang Chunhua's hand hangs down feebly.

"..."

"Chunhua?"

silence.

"Chunhua! Chunhua!"

No response.

"Chunhua—"

The author has something to say:

The foreshadowing of Cao Shuang here will be explained in the next chapter. In fact, there is no need to explain it. It is obvious after reading Chapter 30.

If Master Sima really treated Cao Fang like that, he would definitely be courting death. Don't take the words of the novel seriously.

Sima Yi was actually quite loyal in history, at least the Wei State officials tried their best to mold him into the state of Zhuge Liang, the fault was not Sima Yi, it was his son's problem...

The blood test did not happen in Gongdou drama and reasoning drama. The author himself thinks it is unscientific... But the author does not know whether Cao Fang is Cao Rui's son. There are various theories, but it should be ... No, anyway, Cao Rui has a hobby of adopting a son, so there is no need to lie about his son, Cao Fang's background should be relatively clear.

Zhang Chunhua's death should have been a huge blow to Sima Yi, so...you can go and find out that Sima Yi lived a few more years.

The time span of this chapter is actually very large: Sima Yan was born in 236 years (so according to the plot of this story, the child Wang Yuanji conceived for the first time was not Sima Yan, and the author does not know who it is, or it may not be pregnant at all. In short, don’t ask the author) Cao Rui’s death should be in 239 (some say 238, who knows if I checked the perpetual calendar on the Internet at this time), Zhang Chunhua died in 247, and Sima You was born in 248. These two time periods should be close to each other, because According to the customs of the ancients, Sima Zhao should observe filial piety for three years after Zhang Chunhua's death, and there is nothing to do with sex.

Speaking of which, Sima Yi determined that Sima You was the son of Sima Shi, of course it meant to change history (Sima Shi also died early and had no heirs, so his lineage died out. Sima Yi valued this son the most and wanted him to be like this. pulse continues), but also because of this, in history, Sima Yan would never spare Sima You, and this brother of mine is more rooted than himself... The Sima family once again staged the scene of brothers fighting against each other... Well, also It can be said that what I learned from predecessors like Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, from the point of view of this article, is the power of inheritance...
