Sima Yi immediately took a step forward and said loudly,""Sikong Cao has risked his life for the Great Han Dynasty, going through fire and water. My Sima Clan is not talented, so we can't drag Sikong Cao down!”
"I would rather everyone in my Sima Clan only eat one meal than to sponsor Cao Sikong to suppress the traitor!”
"My Sima Clan will donate another ten thousand dan of grain!”
……
Sima Yi's words were sonorous and forceful, instantly winning the hearts of the people in the hall.
Cao Cao turned his head to look at Sima Yi, his eyes slightly narrowed, revealing a hint of arrogance.
Hmph, hmph, you want to ruin my place, but you've been slapped in the face by me, haven't you?
Wouldn't they still have to obediently hand over the food?
"Everyone…"
However, Sima Yi suddenly smiled and said to his surroundings,""Sikong Cao is a loyal minister of the Great Han Dynasty. How does everyone think Sikong Cao is compared to the ancient Duke of Zhou?”
……
"Sikong Cao is the current Duke of Zhou!”
"That's right. Sikong Cao's actions are just like the Duke of Zhou!”
……
Everyone agreed.
The Duke of Zhou, named Ji Dan, was the younger brother of King Wu of Zhou. After King Wu died, King Cheng was young and the Duke of Zhou acted as regent.
At that time, many people saw that the Duke of Zhou was taking care of everything and thought that he would rebel sooner or later.
However, in the end, not only did the Duke of Zhou manage the world in an orderly manner, but when King Cheng grew up, he even returned the throne to King Cheng.
Later generations praised the Duke of Zhou as the most virtuous minister.
When Cao Cao heard Sima Yi mention the Duke of Zhou, his expression immediately changed. He knew that Sima Yi did not have good intentions.
As expected, Sima Yi said,"This time, Cao Sikong is going on an expedition against Yuan Shu. There is no one to handle the government affairs in the court!"”
"Now that Your Majesty is already old, why don't Sikong Cao imitate the Duke of Zhou and return the power to Your Majesty!”
"The world should praise him!"
……
Sima Yi's words immediately made Cao Cao roast over the fire.
Didn't you call yourself a loyal minister of the Great Han Dynasty?
Since that's the case, return the power to the emperor!
If Cao Cao returned, then Liu Xie would gradually take control of Xuchang. At that time, Cao Cao would definitely end up in a miserable state.
If Cao Cao doesn't return it, then, hmph hmph…you still dare to call yourself a loyal subject?
You are a treacherous official!
The name of the Han thief was confirmed.
Cao Cao's face instantly darkened. This Sima Yi was actually so vicious!
Now, everyone was looking at Cao Cao!
He was waiting for Cao Cao's response.
Just now, they were all moved to tears by Cao Cao. Now, if Cao Cao refused to return the political power to Liu Xie, then these people would be extremely disappointed in him.
Cao Cao's reputation would also drop greatly.
"Young Master Sima is right!”
At this moment, Cao Miao said,""My father often said that he used the Duke of Zhou as an example and wanted to be the number one virtuous official of Great Han!”
……
"Oh?"
When Sima Yi heard this, he revealed a bright smile." Then Young Master Cao, do you know that the Duke of Zhou is regent? After he manages the world, he will return the power to King Cheng!”
"Since Sikong Cao regards the Duke of Zhou as an example, shouldn't he return the throne to His Majesty?”
……
"Of course!"
"My father said that when the world is settled, he will immediately return the government to His Majesty and then take me back to my hometown!”
……
"Wait until the world is peaceful?"
Sima Yi's eyes narrowed." When will that be?”
……
"Very soon!"
Cao Miao said," Duke of Zhou will take seven years to pacify the world. Even if my father can't compare to Duke of Zhou, ten years should be no problem!”
"Back then, the Duke of Zhou only returned the throne to King Cheng after pacifying the world!”
"He must have thought it through and thought that this was the best!”
"Even if some people think that he is up to no good, he will bear the humiliation and refuse to return to power!”
"If my father returns the throne to His Majesty now, wouldn't he be slacking off and eating nothing?”
"If that's the case, how can we imitate the Duke of Zhou and face the ancestors of the Great Han?”
"If my father was that kind of person, even I, as his son, would look down on him!”
……
"You…"
Sima Yi was rendered speechless by Cao Miao's words.
Back then, the Duke of Zhou was indeed asked to return to power, but the Duke of Zhou ignored it and would rather bear the infamy.
Now, this had become the perfect excuse for Cao Cao.
"Haha…"
Cao Cao suddenly burst into laughter." My son is right!”
"If I, Cao Cao, begin to slack off now, how can I be worthy of the emperor's kindness?”
"As long as I live, I will do my best for the Great Han until I die!”
……
Cao Cao secretly gave Cao Miao a thumbs up. This son of his was really amazing.
"Young Master Sima!"
At this moment, Cao Miao smiled at Sima Yi and said,""I heard that you've been smart and resourceful since you were young. I want to play a game with you, do you dare?”
……
Sima Yi hated Cao Miao to the bone.
Not only did this kid ruin his plan today, but he also made him lose face.
Hearing Cao Miao's words, Sima Yi said coldly,""What game do you want to play?"
……
"Very simple!"
Cao Miao said," Let's compete in mathematics. I'll come up with a question, and you'll answer it. Then, you come up with a question, and I'll answer it!"”
……
"Young Master Cao is very confident in your mathematics?”
When Sima Yi heard this, he laughed coldly. A five-year-old child dared to compete with him in mathematics?
Who was Sima Yi?
In the field of mathematics, he was confident that there were not many people in the world who could compare to him.
"I'm alright, so I want to ask Young Master Sima for advice!”
"I'll just take it as a way to relieve everyone's boredom!" Cao Miao said with a smile.”
……
"Alright, then Young Master Cao, please set the questions!”
Sima Yi said.
"It's meaningless to just come up with questions like this!"
"Why don't we add a bet to our game?" Cao Miao asked.”
……
"Bet? What bet?"
Sima Yi asked.
"Very simple!"
"Whoever can't answer the question will be slapped by the other party. How about that?" Cao Miao said.”
