Xin Xuhui: Say goodbye to brother and leave brother sadly
In the middle of the night, a cold wind blowing from Sima Yi who was sleeping soundly in bed woke up. He got up and closed the window and lay on the bed again, but he could no longer fall asleep. For him, there were too many things that happened recently. The moment of peace he enjoyed after arriving at home allowed him to have time to carefully recall the past, but the more he thought about it, the more he became more and more confused.
He sat up and lifted the quilt and walked out the door. At this time, he saw that there was a light in Sima Lang's room and gently paced the door to him to chat with him. When he walked through the window, Sima Yi saw Sima Lang sitting under the lonely lamp holding a few children's clothes. For some reason, he was sad and burst into tears.
Sima Yi recognized that these clothes were worn by Zhang Chunhua before.
Previously, out of guilt for Zhang Wang's family, Sima Lang adopted the orphan Zhang Chunhua and wanted to redeem his sins by raising her well, but luck made people lose sight of Zhang Chunhua, and his life and death were uncertain.
Sima Lang's only wish has no chance to achieve it again.
Looking at the clothes, Sima Yi's inner pain and regret were far better than Sima Lang. After all, Zhang Chunhua fell down in front of him. If his hands were stronger at that time, he could pull her up.
Thinking of this, Sima Yi's hands couldn't help but clenched into a fist, and his face looked very ugly. He wanted to push the door and turn around and walk back. He felt that he had no face to talk to Sima Lang about Zhang Chunhua's problems and was not qualified.
Just a few steps away, Sima Yi heard the sound of the door being pushed open. He looked in the sound and saw Sima Fu pushing the door open and walking in. He happened to meet Sima Yi head-on. Both of them were a little surprised.
"It's so late, why haven't you sleep yet?"
The question that spoke in unison immediately turned into a reply that spoke in unison:
"I can't sleep, come out for a walk."
As soon as they finished speaking, they couldn't help laughing. Sima Yi was very worried about his body:
"Your typhoid fever has not recovered for a while, and the wind is cool at night. Be careful of getting sick again."
Sima Fu smiled honestly: "I understand, you are also the second brother."
During the two days of his stay at home, Sima Yi received letters from Guo Jia. When he learned that Cao Cao, who had lost his son and lost his general, was furious and fought against Zhang Xiu three times and returned in vain. Finally, he accepted Guo Jia's proposal not to launch an offensive against Zhang Xiu for the time being.
Sima Yi also wrote back to him, saying that it seemed that there was a very powerful strategist in Zhang Xiu's army, and he did not forget to take the opportunity to ridicule him by Guo Jia, who was not the opponent of that person.
In fact, except for the first time Guo Jia went to the army, Guo Jia did not agree to launch a revenge army two later, but Cao Cao did not adopt his suggestion. In order to stabilize the situation in Xu County, he left Guo Jia to assist Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, without any counselors, leading Xu Chu and other generals to Wancheng, but he was unable to succeed.
On that day, the pigeon stopped by Sima Yi's window again, but it was no longer the fixed pigeon that Sima Yi and Guo Jia contacted, but another one. What surprised him was that Sima Yi had never seen this pigeon.
After releasing the pigeon, Sima Yi opened the letter in the small bamboo tube, which shocked him very much...
Just then, the door of his room was pushed open, and Sima Fu took the washed clothes in. Seeing this, Sima Yi quickly carried the hand holding the letter behind him naturally, and greeted him as usual:
"I'm so sorry, I'd like to ask you to bring my clothes over, I'll do it myself."
Sima Fu was quite surprised at Sima Yi's polite tone: "It's nothing, it's a trivial matter."
After saying that, he left the house. Before leaving, he caught a glimpse of Sima Yi's hand that had been behind him, but he pretended not to see it and quietly turned around and left.
The reason why Sima Yi concealed something from his younger brother is that the first sentence at the beginning of this letter is:
Don't let anyone know about the existence of this letter, otherwise you will suffer a disaster...
Continue reading Sima Yi's expression became more and more serious. There were not many words in the letter, and only one sentence was explained:
Leave Wen County immediately after receiving this letter. Do not tell anyone before leaving, let alone tell anyone where they are. The longer you stay in Wen County, the more dangerous it is for you, and it may even involve your family.
Only these few words did not explain the reasons for leaving Wen County or the so-called danger.
Not only that, I was not familiar with the handwriting in the letter.
If ordinary people are subjected to such behavior, they will definitely find it very absurd, but Sima Yi, who has been encountering unusual things all the time, vaguely feels that the advice he advised him in his letter is not alarmist.
When I was back home, I encountered at least two groups of ambush on the boat.
It seems that it is very likely that someone really knows that they have returned to Wen County and are about to attack them.
If it was just for him, Sima Yi wouldn't have wanted to escape. On the contrary, he was just trying to meet these people head-on. But after calming down, he didn't want to implicate his brothers and the Sima family.
Without time to think about it, Sima Yi subconsciously prepared to pack his luggage as warned in the letter. Coincidentally, Sima Fu happened to wash his clothes and put them neatly over. Sima Yi took the opportunity to wrap the clothes directly and waited for the moonlight to come, and he did not leak any news to his family.
The sky was getting darker and the night sky was full of stars.
Sima's family was surprisingly quiet, and everyone fell asleep early. Sima Yi carried the bag on his body and gently pushed the door open and walked out. All the candlelight in the room had gone out, and even Sima Lang, who usually did not go to bed early, could not see a trace of light.
Everything seemed to be deliberately cooperating with Sima Yi to leave quietly. Sima Yi tiptoed out of the gate and looked west
And when he went, the ambush he had encountered in the Yellow River had learned his lesson.
This time he can take a boat from Mengjin Port to cross the Yellow River south in the opposite direction.
In addition, he didn't say anything to him before leaving, and he thought he could avoid those people's eyes and ears.
After walking two or three miles away, Sima Yi saw someone standing not far ahead waiting for him. He thought that his whereabouts had been grasped again, so he remained wary and prepared to use a bloodless meteor to deal with a crisis situation below.
However, as he got closer and closer, he was surprised to find that the person standing in front of him was not someone else, but his brother:
Sima Lang.
"Brother...why are you?" Sima Yi almost didn't believe the scene in front of him, and seemed very surprised.
Sima Lang, who was always carrying his hands behind his back, slowly walked forward. The distance he approached step by step made Sima Yi not know what he should do next, and he looked very confused when standing there.
When he walked to Sima Yi, Sima Lang put his hands behind him in front of him, holding a black bag in one of his hands and handed them to Sima Yi: "How can you do it without money and dry food when you are in a hurry?"
Sima Yi took the bag dullly and didn't know what to say. Just as he was about to wait for Sima Lang to ask himself, Sima Lang said nothing and walked over directly beside him.
"Don't you ask me why I didn't say goodbye?" Sima Yi lowered his head, like a child who made a mistake.
"You have never done anything since you were a child. There must be your reason for leaving without saying goodbye, so you don't have to force yourself to explain something to me. Just do what you think is right."
While answering Sima Yi, Sima Lang's footsteps continued to move forward until they completely disappeared from Sima Yi's vision. At the dark Wenxian Street intersection, Sima Yi was left alone standing there.
