Tian Yan

Chapter 9 Survival

The mourning hall was still plain white, the residual incense was still burning unhurriedly, pens, ink, paper and inkstones fell on the ground, and there was also a broken Ruyi.

Cao Pi's face darkened, he didn't want to look at the mess, but just took steps, and came to Cao Chong's coffin.

That was his biological younger brother, who had just celebrated his 12th birthday.

12 years old, the year of birth, offending Tai Sui.

Cao Pi will not be so stupid as to talk to himself in front of the coffin, too many words will be lost, and walls have ears.

Cao Chong is dead, he has nothing to do with it, and Sima Yi probably won't live long.According to Cao Cao's temperament, this is just to make the best use of everything, and throw it away when it is worn out.

What did Sima Yi just say?Want to help him become emperor?joke!

You are so willing to be ruined and die in the crotch of others, but you also want to live like this?

It was his stuff, he could smash it to pieces, but he couldn't bear to watch others use it to pickle things.

Cao Pi wanted to laugh but couldn't. After holding back, there was a sour feeling on his cheeks, and his heart throbbed for a while.

This is not what he wants to see!He could only sacrifice Sima Yi in order to clear himself up, but he didn't want him to humiliate Cheng Huan under his father!

But how can he control Sima Yi now.

Regardless of his identity or morality, he has no right to ask about Sima Yi's affairs, let alone life or death!

Cao Pi was powerless for a while, hurriedly went to Cao Chongling, put on a stick of incense, turned his head and was about to leave.

"Second brother, since you're here, how about leaving later?"

Cao Pi turned his head and saw Cao Zhi stepping in the door, smiled at him politely, and bowed three times before the coffin.

"Although this younger brother was not born to our mother, he grew up watching him. It's a pity that he was envied by heaven at such a young age."

After Cao Zhi's ceremony, he turned to face Cao Pi, his handsome face could not hide the coquettish demeanor.

Cao Pi knew that Cao Zhi was wild and unruly by nature, and his talent was overwhelming, but he didn't have the talent to stabilize the country, so it was nothing to worry about.

So he didn't have any grudges against this younger brother.

"Life is impermanent, brother Zhi doesn't need to be too sad."

Cao Pi nodded and raised his foot to leave, but his arm was held by Cao Zhi.

"..."

"Second brother, sometimes I really feel that you are very similar to your father, really similar."

Cao Pi frowned: "What do you want to say?"

"They all have a country but no home."

As soon as these words came out, Cao Pi's face suddenly turned frosty, and he raised his hand to give him a slap.

Cao Zhi looked at Cao Pi without fear, but his eyelids narrowed a little for the coming impact.

After all, Cao Pi's hand didn't fall, he just sighed and patted him on the shoulder.

"What nonsense."

Cao Zhi bowed his head, not looking at the back of Cao Pi leaving.

Second brother, you will also be angry, and you will also be poked in the pain?

But this sore point is definitely not Cao Chong's death, nor the massacre of his mother's family six years ago.

Second brother, you will also have a heart...

Cao Zhi laughed out loud, but it still hurts, my second brother?

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Cao Cao put down the scroll, only to see the servant trot in, with a troubled expression on his face.

"Then Sima Yi, who was injured in that kind of place, didn't shy away from it at all, and just asked the imperial doctor to look at it!"

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and regained his energy for a moment.

"Although the imperial doctor is tight-lipped, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. When the time comes, his face will be worthless, and His Majesty's reputation will be..."

Cao Cao laughed, and put the book on the desk with a "snap".

"Then, kill it."

"Yes..." The servant took the order, bent down and retreated.

"Hey, wait a minute." Cao Cao called to stop him, "Find some good medicine and leave a whole body."

"Yes……"

It took three taels of silver to invite the imperial doctor, not counting the money for the medicine.

Sima Yi didn't bring his previous savings into the palace. The money was his salary when he was Mr. Cao Chong, and now there is nothing left.

There is really nothing left, except for this injury, he has nothing left.

Cao Cao didn't throw him in jail, and he didn't ask someone to kill him. Cao Chong's case was claimed to be poisoned by snakes, so he still has an identity now.

It's just that he doesn't know how long Cao Cao will keep him.

But now he doesn't want to die, he wants to live, to uncover today's humiliation little by little, and let them bask in the sun majestically.

Just as he was thinking, the door of the room was pushed open, someone was backlit and couldn't see his face clearly.

"Mr. Sima."

Sima Yi propped himself up and sat up, only to see Cao Zhi leaning against the door with a half-smile, stepping in step by step.

"This place is too simple." Cao Zhi looked around the room, and his eyes fell on his pen and inkstone, "Duan inkstone inkstone, sir, the life before was not so miserable."

Sima Yi didn't know what Cao Zhi wanted, so he had no choice but to agree: "Your Highness has good eyesight."

"That's why, sir, you want to get out of here, right?"

Sima Yi's eyebrows twitched, and he realized that this was Cao Chong's fourth brother, who came here to ask for a crime.

It's just that he has already taken this basin of dirty water, so it's useless to say anything more.

Seeing his acquiescence, Cao Zhi sneered secretly in his heart: "If you killed brother Chong, you should die ten times."

Before Sima Yi had time to say anything, he saw Cao Zhi's long sword unsheathed from his waist, reaching straight to his throat.

"Your Highness cannot kill me!"

Cao Zhi narrowed his eyes: "Then who can kill you? Father, or the second brother?"

"Your Majesty didn't say you wanted to kill me. Your Majesty's doing so violated the criminal law!"

Cao Zhi seemed to have heard something funny, and sent the sword back again, until Sima Yi stiffly leaned back.

"You don't want to die? Why don't you want to die?"

"Ants still steal their lives!"

"But I miss you dead. I don't know what kind of expression the second brother will have when you die?"

Sima Yi's whole body tensed up, his eyes fixed on the sharp blade, for fear that he might accidentally pierce his throat.

Cao Zhi didn't strike immediately, the point of the sword moved down and rested on his shoulder.

"By the way, the second brother has never been afraid of seeing people die. What he is afraid of is always seeing that your life is worse than death."

The sword edge cut his shoulder, and after the tingling sensation, hot and humid liquid flowed out.

"If you cut off your meat piece by piece, put it back together, and show it to the second brother, he will be very happy."

Sima Yi shook his head, but when he raised his eyes, he met Cao Zhi's contemptuous gaze.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm not Cao Pi!"

Sima Yi saw that the sword was straight, and the next moment it was going to cut his neck.

"Step aside!"

Cao Zhi was staggered by his push, and Sima Yi stumbled to his feet, about to rush out the door.

"you!"

Just as Cao Zhi was about to catch up, he saw Sima Yi running into someone, who was Cao Cao's valet in front of him.

"Mr. Sima, His Majesty knew that you were injured, so he specially stewed a bowl of tonic, drink it quickly."

Sima Yi stood there dumbfounded as if struck by lightning.

"Haha, it seems that Emperor Father can't keep you anymore, Mr. Sima."

Sima Yi's Adam's apple twitched, raised his hand and smashed the medicine bowl held by the waiter, with the strength he didn't know where, he threw away all the palace people and went straight to Cao Cao's bedroom.
