Chapter 199
"What?" As if a thunderbolt hit him from the clear sky, Sima Yi, who had always been deep and steady, couldn't help shaking his whole body, and his complexion changed drastically.He finally understood why Ding Yi rushed back home in such a hurry.

But just at this moment, he immediately settled down, regained his usual composure, and said to Sima Yin: "Quickly go to the third master and go back to the mansion, just tell me that I have an emergency."

Qing Fu was caught
On this side, Ding Yi followed Ding Ming almost non-stop, and ran all the way back home.After entering the mansion, Ding Yi saw no one around, so she asked in a low voice: "Did you find anything?"

Ding Ming also lowered his voice and replied: "In the past few months, we have been guarding around the prime minister's mansion day and night according to the orders of the adults to observe the abnormal movements of abnormal people. We found that the personal servant of the wife of the prime minister's mansion, Qing Fu went out most frequently during this time.

"This morning, this young woman sneaked out of the mansion again. We brothers followed up quietly, and followed her to a hidden corner of Caiban Hutong, and saw her having an appointment with a young man. Seeing this, my subordinates, He made a decisive decision and ordered all the brothers to go forward to capture Qingfu and the two of them alive. Unexpectedly, when the young man saw us rushing forward, he knew that he could not get away, cut his face with a dagger, and swallowed the poison hidden in his body. Maru committed suicide. The young man's face was disfigured and his life was dead. We couldn't find out his origin. But the maidservant panicked for a moment and couldn't react. We captured him alive and took him to the woodshed in the backyard of the mansion. Lock it up, and ask the eldest son to interrogate himself!"

Ding Ming reported what happened in one breath, but Ding Yi did not hear any words.He raised his eyes and saw that the expression on Ding Yi's face at the moment was as complicated as it could be, but the most important component was an indescribable ecstasy.He seemed to have lost his mind for a moment because of being too surprised, and just stood there in a daze.After a while, he said "Ouch" before jumping back to reality, clapping his palms together: "Very good, very good, you have done a good job." Ding Ming was modestly declining, "Pa" Suddenly, Ding Yi slapped him heavily on the right cheek!

He covered his right cheek, looked bitterly, and looked at Ding Yi full of grievances.Ding Yi's face was livid, and she said coldly: "But, you are not doing well enough! You should immediately divide the brothers into two groups, one group will continue to follow the maidservant, and the other group will follow the young man. Track it down to his master. You rushed up and arrested him today, which caused the young man to commit suicide and cut off the clues. His master must have taken precautions. You ruined my big business."

"Subordinate... This subordinate was so anxious at the time... that I didn't care about so much..." Ding Ming hesitated to argue.A quarter of an hour ago, he felt good about himself and felt that he was a hero.A quarter of an hour later, Ding Yi's words and this slap hit him like he was falling into an abyss, completely losing his confidence.

Ding Yi's face darkened, and she said coldly: "Now, we can only start with this maid. You immediately send someone to find out her details, and arrest as many people who are related to her as you can. Uh...she is a maidservant, she should have a good friend in the prime minister's mansion, and she will be arrested immediately. Act quickly, and never fall behind others. In addition, find some smart and capable people to keep her under strict supervision. I can't let her commit suicide like that young man again. It doesn't matter if her hands and feet are tied, what should I do if she bites her tongue and kills herself? Put a coarse cloth around her mouth!" His arrangement can be described as thorough and clear, and Ding Ming nodded again and again. Yes, follow orders.

Ding Yi stood in the middle of the courtyard dam, with his hands behind his back, walked around quickly thinking deeply, then called a servant in the mansion, and ordered: "Hurry up and invite Master Yang Xiuyang and Master Sima Sima to come to my mansion tonight." Once we get together, tell me that I have something important to discuss."

Tensions
This is the case with many things. Until the last moment, no one is sure who the real winner is.Originally, Marquis Pingyuan was already at a disadvantage in this matter of establishing an heir, but it was at this precarious last moment that God sent a glimmer of opportunity.It's just a stroke of luck.Ding Yi waited quietly for the arrival of Yang Xiu and Sima Fu in the secret room of the mansion, while thinking deeply.Yes, now Qing Fu has fallen into our hands, so many sinful secrets hidden behind this heir-making struggle will be revealed to the world.There is an old saying: "Good avoids yang, and evil avoids yin." The most feared thing in doing good is excessive publicity, and the most feared thing in doing evil is excessive darkness.No matter how dark and dark the evil deeds are, once they are made public, they will disappear like snow and ice.

However, if we continue to trace Qingfu's clue, what kind of things and people will be found out?She is Mrs. Wang's personal maid, if she misses, the consequences will be disastrous.When Ding Yi thought of this, her heart shivered.For the first time, he felt his isolation and helplessness when he confronted the mysterious force that opposed and blocked Pingyuan Hou Lisi.However, Ding Yi, who has grown up fighting discrimination, external resistance, physical disabilities and other disasters since she was a child, has long understood deeply that the more isolated and helpless a person is, the more difficult he will be. The more tenacious and persistent, and the more cautious and cautious, the more complete success can be achieved.Thinking of this, a sharp light flashed in the depths of Ding Yi's right eye, which was bloodshot, sore and sore due to staying up all night thinking hard, no matter who might be involved behind this handmaid, he must investigate , Grab the "behind-the-scenes hand".

"Brother, Master Yang and Young Master Sima are here." Ding Zhen pushed open the door, followed by Yang Xiu and Sima Fu.Ding Yi didn't get up to greet them, but bowed politely on the chair, beckoning them to sit beside her.At the same time, the deep tiredness on his face was swept away, revealing a relaxed expression.

Ding Yi first looked at Yang Xiu's expression.Recently, Yang Xiu was very sad because his father Yang Biao was killed one by one, so his face was quite ugly.To be honest, it was his father's sudden expulsion that made him deeply feel the ups and downs of the officialdom.My father adhered to the righteous way all his life, never said anything wrong with etiquette, never moved anything wrong with it, was loyal to the Han family, loyal to the emperor, and was respected by everyone.However, in his later years, he was ruthlessly abandoned by the Han Dynasty and the emperor whom he was loyal to for the sake of self-protection!The world is hot and cold, human feelings are cold and warm, and the officialdom is sinister, which can be seen.Qu Yuan was right: "The water in the Canglang is clear and can wash my tassels; the water in the Canglang is turbid and can wash my feet." He couldn't help thinking of retreating bravely in the rapid current.However, when he thought that Marquis Pingyuan's matter of establishing an heir was not yet over, he couldn't bear to let it go.The Marquis of Pingyuan treats him with the courtesy of a national scholar, and he can only do his best to help Marquis Pingyuan achieve "a good start and a good end".He made up his mind that as soon as Ping Yuanhou was promoted to the position of son, he would immediately resign from office and never get involved in politics again.

Sima Fu, who was sitting on the other side, seemed worried for some reason.From time to time, a faint melancholy cloud passed between his brows and eyes.There is a saying in China: "Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite." The common feature of the scriptures of every family is "difficult to recite", but as to how difficult to recite, they are different.Ding Yi was "difficult to read" because Cao Zhi, Marquis of Pingyuan, could not be established as the son of the prince, Yang Xiu was "difficult to read" because he was detained in Cao Ying as a descendant of the Han Dynasty, and Sima Fu was "difficult to read" because of the constraints of family relations.When he suddenly received an urgent meeting with his second brother Sima Yi in the morning, and after hearing what his second brother said to him, he knew that today he had really reached the "crossroads" of his life choices.A person has to walk a thousand or ten thousand steps in his life, but the key is only two or three steps; a person has to speak a thousand or ten thousand sentences in his life, but the key is only two or three sentences; Do thousands or tens of thousands of things, but the key is only two or three things.If you choose the right way to take these two or three steps, say these two or three sentences correctly, and do these two or three things right, your life will jump to a higher level to achieve yourself; if you choose the wrong way, take these two or three steps. Bulu, if you say these two or three wrong words, or do these two or three things wrong, you may be thrown into the [-]th level of hell, and you will never be able to stand up again, and even your family and relatives will be affected.

Everyone doesn't live in a supernatural vacuum, and they can't really be unencumbered and free to do whatever they want.He must live in a complex social relationship, and he also lives on behalf of the huge social network behind him.No one is an exception, and so is Sima Fu.The big family headed by the second elder brother Sima Yi bet on the revival of the family style on the handsome general with five senses, only Sima Fu is still hesitant.In his opinion, Pingyuan Hou Cao Zhi is indeed a candidate for the heir with both ability and political integrity, and Pingyuan Hou has always treated Sima Fu with deep affection and friendship, as close as a brother, how can Sima Fu bear him?
However, when the second brother met him in the morning, his shocking words and deafening words finally shattered the last trace of hesitation in his heart.The second brother was right, Ding Yi grabbed that maidservant Qingfu, it was equivalent to strangling Mrs. Wang, the general with five sense organs, the second brother and others by the throats!They must not sit still and wait for death. They have already made comprehensive preparations and are ready to go.As long as Ding Yi does something unusual, a bloody and tragic Wei family massacre will kick off... At that time, the second brother Sima Yi pointed at the three thousand dead soldiers who were waiting for the battle in the mansion training ground in an instant. He said: "If Ding Yi dares to use that maidservant to blackmail us, we will let these dead soldiers change into the clothes of the guards of the Han Palace, and enter the Prime Minister's Mansion and Pingyuan Marquis Mansion in one fell swoop, claiming that His Majesty sent him to assassinate Prime Minister Cao and Prime Minister Cao." Marquis of Pingyuan. They have our internal support in their mansion, and they will definitely succeed! After killing Prime Minister Cao and Pingyuanhou, the five-featured general will immediately take charge of the overall situation in the name of 'revenge for his father', dispatch troops and generals, and pursue the victory , taking advantage of the trend to slaughter the monarchs and ministers of the Han Dynasty, and then ascend the throne and proclaim the emperor. ——Although we don’t want to do this, but the situation has come to this point, I’m afraid this tragedy is really inevitable.”

Sima Fu shook his head and was speechless. He knew that what the second brother said was true, and he also knew that there were too many people involved on Cao Pi's side. Their counterattacks and plots were definitely not mere literati like Ding Yi, Yang Xiu and himself. Confucian scholars can handle it.Maybe only by doing as the second brother said, can this tragedy of burning jade and stone be resolved.He was right: "We have no other choice. We can only put the quelling of Wei's internal chaos as the top priority, and let the situation return to a situation where everything seems to have never happened before." Qing Fu, his "trump card", he would not be able to make waves, nor would he be able to make waves.Only in this way can the Wei family be at peace.
