Chapter 574 Visiting Sima Yi
That's fine, Liu Yang wanted to interview Sima Yi when he came to Wei, after all, Sima Yi was a well-known celebrity in history!
After obtaining Sima Yi's consent, Liu Yang began to set up various photographic equipment for interviews.
"Master Sima, I also told you about the interview. You should know that the content of the following video is aimed at the future world 800 years later, right? At that time, the people of future generations will know about you."
"Haha, the winner is the emperor and the loser is the bandit. Since I am the emperor, I should let the world know about me!"
"Then before we start, Master Sima, please tell us about your past..."
Everyone desires to be famous forever, and Sima Yi is no exception. Besides, he already knows that he will replace the Cao family as the "emperor" in the future, so he is naturally willing to share things about himself so that future generations can be admired by thousands of people .
When talking about the surname Sima, its surname originated from "Zhuanxu", one of the five emperors in ancient times, which is also the name of the grandson of the Yellow Emperor.
At that time, the descendants of Zhuanxu were named "Xiaguan", and later changed their name to "Sima" in the Zhou Dynasty because of the times.
Sima Yi came from an extraordinary background. His grandfather and father were both high-ranking officials in the Han Dynasty. For this reason, he lived a good life since he was a child, and he was able to study classics, grammar, and the art of war.
Before the age of 20, Sima Yi was still unknown. Although he had talent, he had nowhere to display it. For this reason, he was always looking for opportunities to shine.
Soon this opportunity appeared. In the sixth year of Jian'an (201), Sima Yi was recommended by the county guard as the official of the plan.Because of his intelligence, talent, and decisive actions, Sima Yi gradually became famous in the prefectures and counties.
At that time, Cao Cao was already a senior official and served as Sikong. When he heard about Sima Yi's talent and knowledge, he was very appreciative, so he sent someone to invite Sima Yi to do things for him.
However, Sima Yi was a man of integrity when he was young. He knew that the current Eastern Han regime had been controlled by Cao Cao, and his "holding the emperor to make the princes" was displeasing, so Sima Yi refused to agree even if he was invited, and turned to "body Sick" and declined.
Of course Cao Cao didn't believe it, he was a suspicious person, not to mention that he had heard that Sima Yi was in good health, why did something happen when he went to invite him?So Cao Cao sent someone to investigate secretly, and it turned out that Sima Yi was lying in the mansion as if he was sick, shutting the door, like a stone statue.
In this way, Cao Cao will no longer let Sima Yi do things, and the matter can be regarded as nothing.
However, in the past seven years, Cao Cao missed Sima Yi, and always felt that Sima Yi was very talented, and if he could get his help, he would definitely be able to unify the world.What's more, in these years, Cao Cao often heard some rumors, saying that Sima Yi was pretending to be sick!
For this reason, in the 13th year of Jian'an, Cao Cao forced Sima Yi to come and take up the post, and even threatened that if Sima Yi did not come, he would be arrested and sent to the prison.
How could Sima Yi withstand such intimidation, he was just a weak literati, so he had no choice but to agree to come down and become an official.
When working for Cao Cao, although Sima Yi was cautious, he often showed his amazing wisdom, and even put forward many fruitful suggestions, which made Cao Cao reuse him more and more.
However, reuse is reuse, Cao Cao is a generation of heroes, he can see the "big ambition" in Sima Yi's heart, and a person like this will never be inferior to others.
For this reason, Cao Cao often reminded his son Cao Pi to be careful when dealing with Sima Yi, and he must not believe everything.
However, Cao Pi, as the prince at this time, was often taken care of by Sima Yi, and his relationship was very good, so whenever his father Cao Cao reminded him like this, Cao Pi didn't care, and even defended Sima Yi.
Sima Yi is also a smart person, good at observing words and expressions, and soon he also noticed Cao Cao's wariness, so he began to "pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger" to show a loyal and diligent appearance.Over time, even Cao Cao was paralyzed by him, and he believed in Sima Yi.
In the years that followed, Sima Yi followed Cao Cao to fight in the army and fought in all directions. During this process, Sima Yi often made strange strategies, which were very effective, and his military talents were gradually displayed, and he became a "military Sima".
In the process of becoming the Sima of the army, Sima Yi's political achievements were outstanding, and all the people under his jurisdiction surrendered, and the world was peaceful and prosperous.
Later, Sima Yi made predictions many times. For example, in the 24th year of Jian'an, he said that the governor of Jingzhou was cruel by nature, and the prefect of Nanxiang was extravagant. These two people should not be sent to guard the border, otherwise something big will happen.Cao Cao didn't take it seriously and didn't listen to it. As a result, in the same year, there was a natural disaster in the two places. Guan Yu led the army to attack, and the governor and prefect surrendered to Shu.
Of course Cao Cao was furious when he learned of this, and at the same time regretted why he didn't listen to Sima Yi.
After regaining his strength, Cao Cao wanted to bring people back to Jingzhou, but Sima Yi dissuaded him, and offered a plan saying that Liu Bei's possession of Jingzhou would definitely cause Sun Quan's uneasiness. It will definitely make Liu Bei and Sun Quan kill each other.
Cao Cao chose to follow Sima Yi's words this time, and he began to plan. As a result, Sun Quan went to fight Guan Yu and took Jingzhou.For this reason, the alliance relationship between Liu Bei and Sun Quan suffered a serious setback, and the tripartite confrontation was destroyed.
At that time, Sima Yi had already won the trust of Cao Cao, and gradually became the central core of the Wei court.
In the first year of Yankang, Cao Cao died, and Cao Pi ascended the throne. At this time, internal and external troubles happened.
Cao Pi was inexperienced and couldn't handle everything well. Fortunately, Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Cao Zhen and other auxiliary ministers were there to stabilize the huge Wei state.
At this time, Sima Yi has not yet sat on the supreme power of the Wei State, and he still has to fight wits and courage with other powerful officials, which can be described as exhausted.Now, after hearing Liu Yang's "prophecy", Sima Yi was very happy and was thinking about how to act in order to gain Cao Pi's trust and stand out among the ministers to dominate the government.
So when Sima Yi was talking about his life experience, he could repeatedly knock on Liu Yang's side to gain insight into the future.
Liu Yang naturally understood Sima Yi's thoughts, so he shook his head regretfully: "Okay, Lord Sima, in short, I can only tell you that if you can live a long life and sit in high power, your Sima family will definitely become emperor and emperor. I can't tell you about it."
"Since Mr. Liu said so, the old man can only obey."
"Then there is one more thing to entrust to Master Sima...that's why I came here specifically to find you."
