It would be better to ask this question: Did Sima Yi's monarch ever doubt Sima Yi at the turn of Chu and Wei?

Apparently he had doubts.

But this suspicion was resolved by Sima Yi in a very clever way.

He also claimed to be ill and refused to go to court. He also acted like he was old and seemed to be returning to the West in the next second. He also represented a huge interest group, and there were many important officials in the court who had a sworn relationship with him.

In fact, a careful analysis of Sima Yi's situation at that time will reveal that although he was an important minister, his power was still far inferior to that of the emperor.

However, he succeeded in seizing the position by relying on an incomprehensible trick.

Although there was certainly a reason why the emperor was politically stupid and naive while Sima Yi was cunning and shameless, but in terms of results, he was successful.

Does Sheng Taizu dare to bet that after his death, his imperial grandson will still be able to secure the throne like himself?

Do you dare to bet that once the throne is usurped, it will not usher in an unprecedented chaotic era of alien invasion like the turn of Chu and Wei?

Obviously, he didn't dare to gamble.

If we analyze it from the perspective of hindsight, assuming that the emperor Sima Yi, or the two emperors before him, had already made up their mind to find a reason to kill Sima Yi, then there would be no subsequent series of events.

Or there is no need for the emperor to take action, as long as Sima Yi can die a few years earlier, then his image in the history books should be: governing the people with talents, being both civil and military, supporting two dynasties, and loyal ministers for three generations.

But it was only when he was in his seventies and in the last two years of his life that he showed his true self to everyone.

So back to the original question: Is there anything wrong with Sima Yan?

Chu Ge could only say: I don’t know.

Because there is no way to verify all of this, even if we can go through the history of that time again, even from the perspective of a person in the game, there is no way to verify the possibility that it did not happen.

In his heart, Chu Ge was more inclined to believe that Sima Yan did not have any thoughts of rebellion at that time, and he was also willing to believe that this was just an unjust killing, but from the perspective of the emperor, he really could not afford to take this risk.

Thinking of this, Chu Ge sighed softly and finally determined the cause of Sima Yan's death.

If Sima is not dead, the two rivers will not stop.

At that time, officials from Lianghuai had an absolute advantage in the court. From Sima Yan to Zhou Ping, they continued to cultivate party members. The reason why Sima Yan was able to resign so simply was probably because he chose Zhou Ping.

This heir knew that Zhou Ping could protect his own interests well.

Sheng Taizu also wanted to support other forces to fight against the Lianghuai Group, but after all, the foundation of the Lianghuai Group was too deep and difficult to shake.

Then, let's just let Zhou Ping's power continue to expand and start another one.

As for Sima Yan, who was originally the true spokesperson of the Lianghuai Group, the outcome was naturally doomed.

Although Sheng Taizu was quite alive, he could not predict the future and had little confidence in this lifespan competition.

More importantly, there is no need for him to compare his lifespan with Sima Yan. After all, he is the emperor.

"Someone is coming.

"I want to personally interrogate Zhou Ping's relative, Li You."

Chu Ge knew that this interrogation would yield a very important piece of information. Li You would admit that before Zhou Ping rebelled, he had gone to Sima Yan, and Sima Yan's answer to him was: I am old. After I die, you can take care of yourself.

.

And this sentence will become the trigger for Sheng Taizu to make up his mind to kill Sima Yan.

As for this matter, who is wrong?

In fact, no one is right.

From the perspective of the emperor, it is the emperor's right; from the perspective of the ministers, it is the ministers' injustice; from the perspective of the common people, it does not matter who of you kills whom, as long as the country is stable, there should be no fierce political struggle.

, don’t let the people be displaced again, that’s enough.

If I must be wrong, I can only blame Sima Yi hundreds of years ago for letting future generations lie down and get shot!

…

At the same time, Huo Yunying acted as a "rebel" and once again gathered a team of six to seven hundred people.

But the bad news is that he still hasn't found General Gu Yuan who can let him hug his thigh.

Huo Yunying suspected that this might be because the game "Dark Sand" deliberately plugged this loophole.

If the real situation in history is followed, then as long as the player finds General Gu Yuan and obeys his instructions in everything, it is possible to pass the level lying down.

Obviously it fails to serve the purpose of testing players.

Therefore, Huo Yunying stopped worrying and prepared to propose to Marshal Peng to establish his own business in accordance with the established plan.

In the meeting hall, Marshal Peng smiled kindly: "Why do you come to see me?"

Huo Yunying knew very well that although Marshal Peng seemed to treat him well on the surface, he actually had a grudge against him.

The reason is very simple, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain.

When Sheng Taizu first showed his outstanding talents, Marshal Peng was obviously very happy, thinking that he had found a general and a talent that could be made.

But soon, Marshal Peng realized that Sheng Taizu's abilities were more than just a general.

In other words, Sheng Taizu's ability was superior to his.

Marshal Peng certainly hopes that his son can take over, so he will naturally distance himself and be wary of this outsider.

In troubled times, heroes who truly have the ability to unify are rare. When rebels from different forces fight against each other, only the strongest can win.

And this kind of battle is not necessarily an aboveboard military struggle, but may occur in any form.

Huo Yunying knew that if he wanted to pass the "rebel" status, he would probably have to break away from Marshal Peng and establish his own business, so he didn't hide it and directly explained his purpose.

"Peng Shuai, we now occupy the city of Chuzhou. Although heroes from all walks of life have come to join us and are developing rapidly, the world is in chaos at this time and heroes are rising together. There are countless opportunities outside of Chuzhou.

"Peng Shuai, it is certainly the best strategy for you to run Chuzhou and use it as a foundation for development. But we should also seize the opportunities from the outside appropriately.

"So, I hope you can allow me to take people out to explore."

Marshal Peng's expression was startled for a moment, then a hint of joy flashed across his face.

Obviously, he has long felt that this young man is not a creature of the pond, and staying with him is likely to be a disaster. Now that the other party has taken the initiative to leave Chuzhou, it is of course a good thing.

However, Marshal Peng did not show it too obviously, but pretended to think about it and then said: "Of course it is good for you to be enterprising.

"It's just...how many people do you plan to bring?"

Huo Yunying was stunned for a moment, but without thinking much, she replied: "Just take away the 700 people I am leading now."

Marshal Peng smiled helplessly, then shook his head: "I'm afraid there's something wrong with this.

"Although the opportunities outside are good, Chuzhou City is not yet stable at this time.

"The Northern Barbarian bandit general Dong Chengyun has always been eyeing Chuzhou City and may attack at any time. At this time, if you take away these soldiers, although they are not many in number, it will ultimately weaken our strength.

"If other generals see it, I'm afraid it will have some bad effects..."

Huo Yunying was stunned for a moment: "But the commander-in-chief..."

Marshal Peng waved his hand: "We will discuss this matter later."

After saying that, he sent Huo Yunying away.

…

After leaving the meeting hall, Huo Yunying returned to her room, full of doubts.

"Strange, what does Marshal Peng think?

"Since he has always been wary of me, he should be even happier now that I am leaving. Moreover, when I asked to leave, a trace of joy clearly flashed across his face.

"But why didn't you agree later?

"They also said that Chuzhou City is not stable and it will have a bad impact on other generals if they see it... These are obviously excuses.

"Could it be that... Marshal Peng means that people can leave, but his soldiers have to stay?"

Huo Yunying suddenly wanted to break through this layer, and couldn't help but suddenly realized.

From Marshal Peng's perspective, he didn't want Sheng Taizu to stay by his side, because Sheng Taizu was too capable, stronger than him, not to mention his sons.

But he didn't want Sheng Taizu to take away too many people.

On the one hand, these soldiers were all recruited under the banner of the rebel army. Strictly speaking, they were all soldiers under Marshal Peng. Let Marshal Peng send these 700 men to make wedding clothes for Taizu Sheng? Then he would definitely not be willing to do so.

Moreover, what Marshal Peng said does make some sense.

If Sheng Taizu took these people under him and left directly, saying that he was going to explore outside, but in fact everyone else could see that this was a separation.

So how can we lead this team?

What if other people make the same request?

Huo Yunying finally figured it out.

"In other words... I can leave, but I can't take all of my people with me.

"I can only take away a very, very small number of people, for example, select twenty or thirty from the middle...
