Unlike the first time he came to the mansion and lived in Yunshao mansion, this time Sima Yi lived in a hotel in Chengdu, and the conditions were good, but Sima Yi also knew that someone was staring at him outside, and he could not do many things at will, and he could not meet many people at will, but this time he had to meet some people.

At night, it started to rain in Chengdu. The fine and dense rain covered the whole city. The night was dark. In a corner of the back door of the VIP hotel, two black shadows were squatting. They were squeezed under a small eaves and could not shelter from the rain. They had been wet by the rain and were trembling all over. They were both cursing in their hearts.

At this time, a man wearing a straw hat and a straw raincoat, as if he was following, walked out of the back door with a lantern and walked towards the rain curtain. A man who was surveillance was about to get up, but was pulled by another person.

"Idiot, just a servant goes out, can you care?"

The surveillance man thought about it and continued to squat under the eaves. The two of them took out a bottle of wine, drank slowly, and cursed the damn rainy day together.

After the man who came out of the VIP hotel walked half a mile, a carriage drove out from the side. The man quickly got on the carriage. He took off his hat. Under the dim light, this person was Sima Yi.

This carriage belongs to a spy stronghold located in Yizhou in Jingzhou, a long-standing tavern. Sima Yi got on the carriage, and a person in the carriage quickly saluted: "See the military advisor."

The man in the carriage was named Yu Xin. He was originally a military marquis in the Jiangxia army. He was very smart and capable. He was sent to Shu to establish an intelligence point. In just a few years, he provided a lot of intelligence for Jingzhou, which was praised by Liu Jing. He was promoted from military marquis to generals. This year he was Sima of another department. It was his contribution to Sima Yi's relationship with Yun Shao.

Sima Yi is responsible for the local intelligence agencies, so he is Yu Xin's supreme boss. Sima Yi also admires this capable subordinate very much.

He nodded and asked, "Have you contacted the Yun family?"

"Report to the military advisor, we have contacted us, and Yun Shao is waiting for the military advisor."

Sima Yi closed his eyes and said that there were many things that he needed to think first.

Soon, the carriage stopped in front of the Yun Mansion gate. Yun Shao was already waiting on the steps. He directly welcomed Sima Yi into the inner mansion. During this period, Yun Shao was also quite uneasy. When he knew that the Jingzhou army drove Liu Bei's forces out of Jianping County, he realized that the day when the Jingzhou army attacked Bashu was coming.

But what worries him was that there is no clear answer to what Yun Shao could get in Bashu under Liu Jing's control. As the tradition of merchants in his bones, it is very important to clearly mark prices.

And today's Sima Yi's arrival suspected that Yun Shao's heart would feel limited expectations.

Sima Yi went into Yun Shao's inner study room and sat down. He took a sip of hot tea and said with a smile: "The outside of the VIP hotel was monitored very strictly by Liu Zhang, so it is not easy to go out."

"The military advisor misunderstood. Those people were not sent by Liu Zhang, but arranged by Xun Gong."

"Oh," Sima Yi asked curiously: "How could Yun Gong know?"

"I heard Doctor Fei talk about this today." Yun Shao smiled.

Doctor Fei refers to Fei Guan. He is Liu Zhang's son-in-law and the clan of Liu Zhang's mother, the most famous family in Chengdu, a family from Jingzhou, and the Dongzhou scholars were able to settle down in Bashu after being protected by the Fei family.

But the problem is not here. As a nouveau riche like Yun Shao, he can actually get in touch with the Fei family. This is not simple. Sima Yi knew that just last year, the Yun family's nouveau riche was despised by famous families in Yizhou.

Sima Yi looked at him deeply and smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Yun has been very attentive in the past few months."

In fact, Yun Shao himself didn't know why. A few days ago, Fei Guan actually came to visit him and established a friendship with him. He couldn't explain, so he hurriedly bowed and said, "I will do my best to do something for the Lord Chu."

Sima Yi nodded, "You also know that our wife, the daughter of the Tao family, is the daughter of the Tao family, so Chu Hou did not discriminate against merchants and even encouraged merchants to develop trade. When I told Chu Hou that Yun Gong's contribution, he admired him very much. He said something, it was not about his origin, but about his military merits. Yun Gong, do you understand?"

Yun Shao suddenly became excited. Of course he understood what Liu Jing said. Even if he was a businessman, he could still be a high-ranking official. At this time, Sima Yi took out another letter from his arms and handed it to him and smiled: "This is the handwritten letter from Chu Hou to you, please take a look."

Yun Shao was stunned for a moment. He never dreamed that Liu Jing would write a handwritten letter to him. He was extremely excited. He slowly took the letter and read it carefully, his heart full of gratitude.

In the letter, Liu Jing praised him without hesitation, and at the end of the letter, he gave him what he had dreamed of. Liu Jing clearly promised to grant him a marquis in the future and protect his property in Bashu.

Sima Yi has been watching Yun Shao's expression, and Yun Shao will also be a key chess to realize their Bashu plan. To make Yun Shao work for them wholeheartedly, threats, temptations and other means must be used. For this reason, Liu Jing did not hesitate to write a handwritten letter.

"Yun Gong, I don't want to hide some things from you. Attacking Jingnan is just a cover. Eighty thousand elite troops stationed in Jiangling to prepare to attack Bashu. But now we are facing a difficult problem. We are famous for our troops, so we are eager to solve this problem. This is also the main purpose of my visit to Yun Gong tonight."

Yun Shao nodded silently. Of course he understood what Sima Yi meant. This was to entrust this matter to himself. What could he do if he gave such an important task to him.

"Military advisor, please tell me that as long as Yun Shao can do it, I will do my best."

"In fact, only Yun Gong can do this."

Sima Yi lowered his voice and said a few words. Yun Shao's face suddenly changed, and his eyes showed panic, "I'm afraid I can't do this."

Sima Yi's face darkened, "You can do it, only your daughter can do it. The Zhou Mu personally wrote to you, promising you a good title. I even leaked the biggest secret of Jingzhou to you, but you said you couldn't do it. Yungong, it's a pity that you said this."

Yun Shao lowered his head and said nothing for a while. Sima Yi said coldly again: "You should see the situation in front of you. Cao Cao was defeated in Chibi, and Jiangdong was also crippled by us. Now, who can't stop Jingzhou from expanding west? Once Jingzhou takes Bashu and Hanzhong into his pocket, Yun Gong will also become the people of Chu Hou. Should Yun Gong share wealth or become a victim of Jingzhou's expansion west?"

"What does military advisor mean?" Yun Shao raised his head and stared at Sima Yi uneasy.

"It's very simple. Once Liu Zhang knows about the cooperation between Yungong and Jingzhou, what will happen? Zhang Song's past lessons are not far away. Does Yungong want to leave Zhang Song's old man too?"

Yun Shao was so scared that his face was pale and his whole body trembled. After a while, he whispered: "But what should I do with my daughter?"

"Yun Niang is still young and can remarry. As long as Yun Gong becomes a great hero in Jingzhou, he will be awarded a title and promoted, his family has tens of millions of fertile land, and his house is full of supplies and accumulated chunks of money. Are you afraid that no one will marry your daughter?"

Sima Yi's words were already very clear, and the inducement and threats made Yun Shao finally surrender. After a while, he asked, "I'm just worried about whether it will implicate Yun Niang."

Sima Yi took out a small porcelain bottle and placed it on the table, laughed in a low voice, "This is the taste of the queen, and only Yun Niang was not present at the time. No one would think it was her doing it, maybe she thought it was Zhang Lu, either Wei Gong or Xun Gong, what else did Yun Gong worry about?"

Yun Shao stared at the small porcelain bottle, and he finally gritted his teeth, "Okay, I won't let Chu Hou down."

Sima Yi was overjoyed and praised with a thumbs up: "We, Marquis of Chu, are not the ones who have broken bridges across the river. Please rest assured that we will never treat the Yun family unfairly in the future."

It was a fine and dense drizzle in the world, and the sky was dark, and the streets were quiet. There was no pedestrian. Only by chance would a few days of wild dogs chasing each other and fighting each other, making shrill screams, and rushing across the corner of the street like a gust of wind.

But there was a person kneeling in front of the steps in front of the provincial governor's mansion, and his whole body was soaked. It was Wang Lei, who was the military officer. He raised his neck from time to time and shouted: "Prince, please give up Hanzhong, you can't fall into the tricks of Jingzhou."

His voice was very desolate, echoing in the sound of rain, but there was no response. At this time, a gatekeeper couldn't bear it and came out with a straw hat and straw raincoat to put it on him, but he pushed it away.

"I will kneel here all night if I don't agree to me when I go away."

"Prince of the State, please wake up. Jingzhou wants to plot against Bashu, not Hanzhong. They want the state of the State to lead the state astray." Wang Lei shouted again.

In the courtyard inside the gate, several maids held an umbrella for Liu Zhang. Liu Zhang stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes were solemn. Wang Lei's hard persuasion made him feel a little moved. Liu Zhang seemed to want to go out to comfort Wang Lei, but he seemed a little hesitant. He did not want to indulge such persuasion.

"If the governor of the state does not agree, I would rather die." Wang Lei's shouts came again.

Liu Zhang's mouth twitched violently, and Wang Lei actually threatened him with death. The touch that Liu Zhang had just felt in his heart suddenly disappeared.

He snorted heavily, and was extremely annoyed. He turned around and walked towards the inner courtyard. He had his own ideas and difficulties. Wang Lei really thought that Liu Zhang was that stupid. A minister who did not understand his lord's difficulties would also not get his lord's understanding.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Wang Lei, who had been kneeling on the steps for two hours, finally couldn't support him. He became soft and rolled down the steps and fainted in the rain.

.........

Sima Yi returned to the VIP hotel. He changed his clothes and sat at the table to write a letter. His figure was dragged long against the wall under the light. At this time, Sima Yi suddenly heard something. He was stunned, put down his pen, picked up the oil lamp and walked towards the house.

Just as he took a step, there was a loud bang, and the house was knocked open, and a black shadow jumped into the room from outside. The long sword in his hand shone coldly. The moment the rabbit rose and fell, the man in black stabbed Sima Yi with a sword.

The sudden change surprised Sima Yi. He instinctively used the oil lamp in his hand to block it. With a sound, the long sword was swept half a foot away, and the sword stabbed the air. The oil lamp could not be held firmly, and he got out of his hand, and the room suddenly became pitch black.

Sima Yi seized this fleeting opportunity, turned around and ran away, shouting, "Come on, there is an assassin."

But the swordsman is agile. Although he suddenly finds out that he can't see anything in the dark, he knows Sima Yi's location and feels that Sima Yi is about to run out of the door.

The assassin jumped up and rushed towards Sima Yi like a fish that jumped out of the water. The long sword pierced Sima Yi's back heart. With a puff, a sword stabbed Sima Yi's back heart, but the sword bent and did not stab it in.

Just when the attack was not injured, Sima Yi rushed out of the room. Five guards also arrived when they heard the sound. They drew out the battle swords, one of them protected Sima Yi, and the other four rushed into the room...

Sima Yi looked pale and was still in shock. The soldiers who protected him were shocked to see that his clothes had been pierced. He couldn't help but say, "Military advisor, are you injured?"

Sima Yi waved his hand, and he slowly untied his clothes, revealing a thin armor inside. It was Liu Jing who gave him silver silk armor. This time he entered Sichuan.

Sima Yi sighed slightly and said, "When the governor of the state gave it to me, I didn't take it to heart, but I didn't expect it to save my life."

At this moment, Sima Yi suddenly remembered something and hurriedly shouted to the room: "Don't kill him, catch the living."

These guards were selected from the Eagle Strike Army. They were all skilled in martial arts and had rich practical experience. In just a moment, the assassin who broke into the room was stabbed to the ground. Another assassin who was hiding in the tree outside the yard quickly escaped when he saw that the situation was not good.

At this time, a guard came out and shook his head and said, "Military advisor, I'm sorry, the assassin has committed suicide by taking poison."

Sima Yi was stunned. He slowly walked towards his study and saw that the light had been lit in the room, the table was overturned, the box was broken, and blood was everywhere, and the ground was messy.

A black-clothed assassin laying against the wall, he was hit by a knife, but it was not fatal. The mask on his face had been torn off. He was a man about ten years old, with a black face, distorted facial features, and a very ferocious face. It was obvious that he had committed suicide by taking poison.

When the Guancheng heard about the assassin, he was so scared that he ran away. If something happened to Sima Yi, he would lose his head. "Sima Military Advisor, are you okay?" the Guancheng asked in a crying voice.
