Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 810
After Sima Yi had an in-depth conversation with his son Sima Shi, the Taifu Mansion returned to peace.Sima Shi still went out early and returned late, without a trace; Sima Yi still claimed to be seriously ill and stayed behind closed doors.

On that day, Li Sheng, who was about to rush to Youzhou to take up his post, took advantage of the easing weather and went to see Sima Yi at the Taifu's Mansion, hoping to find out how Sima Yi's condition was.

At this time, Sima Yi was sitting in the hall, calmly reading the scrolls.

When Sima Zhao heard that Li Sheng had come to the door, he walked into the hall with his hem up, and said anxiously, "Father, Li Sheng will be the governor of Youzhou, so I come to say goodbye."

Sima Yi snorted softly, closed the bamboo slips, and said with a sneer, "It's not true that Li Sheng came to bid farewell, but it's true that Cao Shuang sent him here to investigate his father's condition."

"quick!!"

Saying that, Sima Yi stood up abruptly, took off the hat on his head and threw it to Sima Zhao, took off his outer robe, quickly climbed onto the couch, and covered him with a quilt.

Holding the hat, Sima Zhao was at a loss and froze on the spot.

Sima Yi, who was sitting on the couch, remembered the bamboo slips he had put on the table and the cup of tea he had just brewed, pointing and saying: "Sir, quickly put away the books on the table and the tea cup."

Sima Zhao came back to his senses, put the bamboo slips on the case on the bookshelf, and hid Sima Yi's hat.After tidying up, I saw that there was no place to put the hot tea, so I had to hold the tea cup and drink it in one gulp.The hot tea was poured down his throat, making him feel a burning pain.

Compared to Sima Zhao's helplessness, Sima Yi had already loosened his hair and was lying on the couch with a haggard face. The maid had already prepared the props and was waiting for Li Sheng to enter.

At this time, Master Sima finally led Li Sheng to the outside of Sima Yi's house. Li Sheng sniffed the stinky smell in the house, and felt his nose unbearable.

"Li Youzhou laughed!" Master Sima said embarrassedly.

"Don't dare!"

"Please!"

Holding his breath, Li Sheng entered the room, bowed to the one who was lying on the sick bed, cupped his hands and said, "I haven't seen the Grand Tutor for a few days, so I'm here to pay a visit."

Sima Yi struggled to get up, coughing continuously, as if wanting to cough out his lungs, the maid behind him beat Sima Yi's back to relieve his breath.

Master Sima took the chair and said: "Li Youzhou, my father is not feeling well, and it is difficult for him to start. He has been negligent. I hope you will forgive me."

Li Sheng sighed, sat on the top chair, and said, "I haven't seen you in several months, why is Tai Tuo's condition so serious?"

Master Sima winked at Sima Zhao, and Sima Zhao understood and left the courtyard.

Sima Yi stopped coughing, his eyes dimmed, and said, "Don't be rude, serve the tea to Mr. He."

"Thank you, Grand Tutor!" Li Sheng took the tea served by the maid, and said with a wry smile, "I'm not He Jun He Yan, but Li Sheng and Li Gongzhao!"

"Li Sheng!" Sima Yi took a closer look, coughed a few times, and said, "Don't blame Mr. Li, a certain old man is dim-sighted, and it is difficult to see things when he is close."

Li Sheng looked up at Master Sima, and Master Sima added, "After my father got sick, he couldn't see well, so he often misidentified Master and his younger brother Sima Zhao."

"This!" Li Sheng hesitated a little, and asked, "How is Taifu's ears?"

Master Sima shook his head and said, "Not only is my father hard to see, but his ears are also hard of hearing."

Li Sheng nodded slightly, and said: "Teacher, today I have an order, and I am ordered to serve as the governor of Youzhou. I am concerned about the health of the Taifu, so I came to see him before leaving. The Taifu still needs to take care of his health, don't let me worry about it." .”

"I'm going to Yuzhou to take up my post!" Sima Yi replied in a daze, "Yuzhou is an important border defense area, and it is close to the western thief Jingzhou, so we need to be on guard from time to time, and we must not slack off."

Li Sheng observed Sima Yi's expression and said, "I'm going to Youzhou, not Yuzhou."

"Oh! So you didn't go to Yuzhou, but came from Yuzhou?" Sima Yi said something, then coughed heavily, and the maid stroked his back repeatedly.

Li Sheng remained patient and said in a loud voice: "Teacher, I will go to Youzhou in the north, not Yuzhou in the south."

"What!" Sima Yi leaned on the pillow, smirked a few times, and said, "Did you come from Youzhou?"

Li Sheng looked puzzled and asked, "Why is Tai Tuo so seriously ill? Can there be a good doctor to treat him?"

Master Sima bowed his waist and replied: "The doctor has an answer. My master's liver is not good. The serious illness has hurt his eyes and ears, and medicine and stones are difficult to heal."

As he spoke, Master Sima burst out a few tears, feeling very sad.

Li Sheng looked at Sima Yi and sighed, "The Grand Tutor galloped on the battlefield and made great achievements, but now he suffers from this kind of disease, what a pity!"

"Please use a pen and paper!"

"promise!"

Li Sheng picked up a pen and wrote a few lines of large characters on the paper, and handed it to Sima Yi.

Sima Yi looked at the content on the paper, smiled awkwardly, and said, "I'm sick and hard of hearing. Youzhou is close to Hubu, and the place is very cold. If you go to Youzhou, take care."

"cough~"

Before he finished speaking, Sima Yi coughed repeatedly. After coughing for a long while, he spat out a mouthful of blood onto the ground.

The maid brought the medicinal soup and served it with a spoon.Sima Yi took it with his mouth, coughing violently and spraying out the medicine soup he swallowed, which wet Sima Yi's beard, which was quite disgusting.

Li Sheng was holding the tea, pretending to sip it lightly, keeping his eyes on Sima Yi for a moment.Seeing this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

Sima Yi leaned on the back pillow, like a dying person, choked up and said: "A certain disease is seriously weakened, and he will die sooner or later. The two of you and the dog are not great, and I hope Li Jun will give you a lot of advice. If you see the general, I hope he can Taking care of the second son, regardless of Sima Zhao's crime of disobeying military orders, this old man has no regrets."

After speaking, Sima Yi coughed again, Master Sima cried and stepped forward to help Sima Yi.

Upon seeing this, Li Sheng clasped his hands and replied, "I will remember the words of the Grand Tutor. I hope the Grand Tutor will take care of you, and I will take my leave."

Li Sheng turned around and left the room, let go of his nose to breathe in the fresh air, which relieved him a little.

As it approached the courtyard, I saw Sima Yi's wife Zhang Chunhua and son Sima Zhao directing the crowd to place the coffin.

Li Sheng asked the attendants beside him, "What is this for?"

"This is for Taifu's funeral." The attendant replied.

Li Sheng stroked his beard, smiled slightly, strode out of the mansion, and then rushed to the general's mansion.

Sima Yi in the house didn't look seriously ill at all. He took a handkerchief from the maid to wipe off the dirt on his body, and said with a sneer, "Li Sheng just needs to report the news to Cao Shuang, and Cao Shuang will no longer doubt his father. Just wait for him to go out of the city." When heading to Gaoping Mausoleum, hum~"

……

"Haha~"

Cao Shuang shook his head with a big belly and said, "Old thief Sima is so sick. Poor! Poor!"

Although Cao Shuang's words were regretful, they were full of jokes.

Li Sheng stepped forward and said with a smile: "Sima Yi drank a mouthful of soup, which made his chest wet, and the smell of filth in the house was so thick that it was hard to smell. And his wife prepared a coffin for him for his funeral."

Huan Fan pondered for a long time, and said: "Sima Yi is treacherous, you need to be prepared!"

"Heh!" Li Sheng smiled sarcastically, and said, "Mr. Huan has never seen Sima Yi's face before. He is extremely embarrassed, living inconveniently, deaf and blind, and he will die sooner or later!"

Sitting on the couch, Cao Shuang sighed and said, "In the blink of an eye, a few years have passed, Sima Yi is already sixty-five years old, and he has lived a long life. His illness is so serious, it should not be faked!"

Li Sheng nodded slightly, and said: "Exactly, Sima Yi also asked the general to take care of his brother Sima Shi and Sima Zhao. I hope the general will not care about Sima Zhao's disobeying the military order. If the general agrees, he will have no regrets. "

Huan Fan, who was stroking his beard, nodded slightly. He also firmly believed in the news that Sima Yi was seriously ill.After all, it is normal for people to plan for their descendants when they are about to die.

Cao Shuang held the wine bottle and said with compassion: "Sima Yi has made great contributions to our great Wei, and Shuang'an should not accept his request. After his death, Shuang appointed his heirs to inherit his title, promoted and reused his two brothers, so as not to Bear my name of Cao Shuang benevolent."

In addition to his poor ability and poor moral character, Cao Shuang's heart is still kind.When Sima Zhao disobeyed him in front of everyone, he didn't blame him too much, but just transferred him to an idle position.As for his henchmen, there was little reproach.It can only be said that Cao Shuang's virtue is nothing more than a small virtue, and it is harmful to the country.

"The general is benevolent!" Li Sheng boasted.

Cao Shuang drank the wine in one gulp, and said with a smile, "If he dies, I have no internal worries, only external troubles and robbers."
