Chapter 491 The Death of Sima Shi
At this moment, all that remained in the ears of the Cao family was that their Cao Wei dynasty was about to change its name and surname!
Half a lifetime of entrepreneurship, and back home still working for someone else?
Moreover, Sima Yi was far too shrewd and cunning. Now, by the time of Cao Mao, the Cao Wei dynasty had only gone through a few generations, yet it was already facing such a predicament!
Here's a corny joke: Cao Wei, the most powerful of the Three Kingdoms, was actually the first to run into trouble...
Damn it, is it just their fault for being too young, or is it that Luoyang's feng shui is really bad?!
However, as they thought about this, they were unaware that even greater bad news awaited them ahead!
……
“What the Sima family did naturally displeased some people. At that time, Wuqiu Jian rebelled and attacked Sima Shi.”
"However, as Sima Yi's eldest son, Sima Shi inherited his father's true skills. In terms of forbearance alone, he was no less than his father. During the standoff between the two armies, Sima Shi developed a tumor on his eye and had just undergone surgery."
"At this time, the rebels launched a surprise attack at night. Sima Shi, who was in a state of panic, was said to have been greatly shocked. This is not an exaggeration. If nothing unexpected happened, the victory was already decided."
"But who was Sima Shi? He was the founder of the Western Jin Dynasty. He immediately covered himself with the quilt and bit down hard on it. Even though the pain was intense, he did not utter a sound."
"This guy is ruthless! None of his attendants noticed anything amiss, which kept the army's morale high and allowed them to withstand the rebels' attack. If it had been a night raid, how many of his generals would have been routed and defeated?!"
Others who were shot at at night: No praising one while criticizing another…
"After the situation stabilized, Sima Shi immediately issued the order to pursue, but the generals were shocked when they saw their leader's true face. How come their leader had become one-eyed?!"
Generals: Boss, how about we bandage it up first?
Sima Shi: Bandaging my ass! Let's chase them first!
"Although the rebels were not a significant force at the time, they did take Sima Shi with them. Due to an eye problem, given the circumstances, we estimate that he was probably infected."
"Perhaps Sima Yi never imagined that his eldest son, on whom he had placed such high hopes, would come down to meet him in just a few years. After all, the Sima family had a longevity gene."
"Since Sima Shi had no sons, not because he was incapable of having children, but because all his children were daughters, and the adopted children were only about eight years old, power fell into the hands of Sima Zhao."
"And this one used even more despicable methods than Sima Shi, and can be said to be infamous. But in the martial arts world, one should always leave room for maneuver in one's dealings, so that one may meet again in the future."
"But if you've gone too far, you have to bear the consequences!!!"
Luoshui: I, Luoshui, will just quietly watch your Sima family...
"Therefore, Sima Zhao, who held all the power, was eyeing the situation covetously. Many people at the time understood that it was only a matter of time before things were going to repeat themselves. Later, there was a saying: 'Sima Zhao's intentions are obvious to everyone.'"
"This statement fully illustrates that at this point, the Sima family was just one step away from securing the final position."
The comments section at this moment:
Cao Cao (his anger soaring!): Sima Yi! I'm going to wipe out your entire Sima family!
Big Han Liu Zhuzhu: Hmph! What goes around comes around…
Li Erfeng of the Tang Dynasty: Alas... the last struggle of the Great Wei...
A bystander in the Ming Dynasty commented: "What goes around comes around. It's also a question of whether the Cao family's descendants will live long. But don't laugh at the two emperors, brother; the Sima family was even worse off than the Cao family..."
A spoiled young man from the Song Dynasty: Sima Shi is a ruthless man. How much can he endure...? That must be incredibly painful!
