Bai Feng squinted his eyes slightly.
Li Cunxiao clenched the Bi Yan Skyscraper in his hand and stared at the troops in front of him.
"Sir, do you want to go?"
There were about a thousand people on horseback. It was very likely that they were going to assassinate Cao Cao!
However, Bai Feng could not say that.
There were only him and Li Cunxiao. It would not be advantageous for them to fight these thousand people in the city.
Moreover, he could not be sure if these thousand people were going to assassinate Cao Cao.
If they really fought, the risk was too great!
Bai Feng shook his head and whispered, "Avoid them.
It's more important to find Young Master Pi. "
Just as Bai Feng was about to enter Cao Pi's residence, he saw Cao Pi leading his family out!
They looked extremely nervous. The maidservants' faces were also extremely ugly.
Most importantly, Sima Yi and the Sima Family members were also among them!
After seeing Bai Feng, Sima Yi showed a surprised expression, but quickly hid it.
Bai Feng frowned slightly. He ignored Sima Yi and bowed to Cao Pi.
"Young Master Pi!"
Cao Pi saw Bai Feng and was slightly surprised.
"Why is Mr. Bai here?"
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes and whispered,
"Young Master, I'm here to discuss something with Young Master Pi. It's something that we need to cooperate on."
Cao Pi was taken aback when he heard that.
"Cooperation?"
Bai Feng nodded noncommittally but did not continue speaking. Instead, she turned her head to look at Sima Yi and the others.
Sima Yi was slightly stunned, then understood. He continued to walk forward with the family behind him, then bowed to Cao Pi and said,
"Young Master Pi, I'll leave you to discuss."
After saying that, Sima Yi turned and left without hesitation.
Bai Feng was slightly surprised.
This Sima Yi was very smart!
He was extremely good at protecting himself.
In this situation, Sima Yi was very clear that he could know what he knew, but he definitely couldn't know what he didn't need to know!
After all, the more he knew, the more danger he would be in.
"Sir, if you have anything to say, please speak frankly."
Cao Pi looked at Sima Yi's departing figure and sighed.
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes and continued.
"Young Master, do you know that Wei Emperor has the intention of suppressing the landowning households?"
Hearing this, Cao Pi was stunned.
After a long silence, Cao Pi slowly nodded.
Bai Feng smiled inwardly.
Although time was tight, he couldn't say it out loud.
Since Cao Pi was going to become the Wei Emperor in the future, it meant that his mind and methods were both brilliant. If he said it out loud, how would he believe that he was not the one who pulled the strings for the assassin?
Bai Feng continued.
"Young Master is indeed a straightforward person, not beating around the bush."
"Since that's the case, this one will speak frankly."
"Yesterday, I discovered something strange in my study. The next day, I investigated and found that Yang Xiu had planted a spy in my residence."
"According to the spy, he stole this one's handwriting and gave it to Yang Xiu."
"I am currently at the core of Wei Emperor's plan to suppress the landowning households. Yang Xiu, who has been trying to win over the landowning households, will definitely try to get rid of me first."
"And the best way to do so is to falsely accuse me of treason."
"With my handwriting, this one is certain that Yang Xiu will use my name to gather those who are plotting treason in the city."
"I'm sure that Young Master already knows about the fire in the supply camp."
"But this is only a pretense. The Prime Minister has no soldiers by his side to put out the fire. He might be in danger."
"I came here in hopes that Young Master Pi can assist me in saving Wei Emperor at the Copper Sparrow Pavilion!"
Seeing that Cao Pi didn't hesitate, he continued.
Bai Feng didn't hide anything and told Cao Pi everything.
Cao Pi's expression turned grave when he heard Bai Feng's words, but he didn't reply.
Bai Feng immediately understood. She moved closer and said,
"After this matter, this one will help Young Master Pi deal with some of your enemies."
At this point, Cao Pi looked at Bai Feng in astonishment.
Deal with my enemies?
Wasn't my only enemy right now Cao Zhi?
Now that Cao Zhi had allied himself with the landowning households, could Bai Feng's words be to deal with the landowning households that opposed him?
Thinking of this, Cao Pi hesitated.
"Time is of the essence, and this matter happened too suddenly. I can understand Young Master Pi's concerns."
"But this isn't a test that Wei Emperor has set up for the heir. This is a true calamity."
"If Young Master Pi isn't willing, then this one won't force you. This one will go alone."
Bai Feng said this to remind Cao Pi.
Cao Pi was extremely cautious, and everything he did was for the sake of the heir position.
Originally, there was no hope for him, but Cao Zhi had foolishly barged into the White Horse Gate at night.
His father would definitely reconsider the two of them for the sake of the heir position.
And Bai Feng was his father's subordinate, so it was hard to say whether this was a test or not.
Thinking of this, Cao Pi narrowed his eyes.
"Okay! I'll go with you! "
When Bai Feng heard this, she didn't hesitate at all and directly grabbed Cao Pi's hand.
"In that case, Young Master Pi, please follow me to the Copper Sparrow Pavilion to rescue Wei Emperor!"
With that, Bai Feng, Cao Pi, and Li Cunxiao disappeared into the night.
At this moment, Sima Yi, who was far away, clearly heard Bai Feng's last sentence.
Looking at the backs of the three people, Sima Yi's expression became extremely solemn. He shook his head helplessly.
"Father …"
Sima Zhao saw that his father's expression was extremely ugly and immediately came forward.
Sima Yi shook his head and sighed.
Sima Yi was such a cautious person. Why did he choose to assist Cao Pi?
Obviously,
Because Cao Pi was the one with great talent!
Compared to the dead Cao Ang and the current Cao Zhi and Cao Pi, Cao Pi's talent was far inferior to the three of them.
However, Cao Pi would endure silently. This was the same as Sima Yi.
Only people who were good at hiding could achieve great things.
Therefore, Sima Yi chose Cao Pi.
This time, when the supply camp caught fire, Sima Yi immediately thought that Cao Cao might be in trouble.
This time, Sima Yi rushed over regardless of the consequences in order to prevent Cao Pi from saving Cao Cao.
Because once he went to save him, it was very likely that he would be suspected!
It was hard to say whether Cao Cao would think that this assassination was planned by Cao Pi to fight for the position of Crown Prince.
Cao Cao was terrifyingly paranoid. Sima Yi was very clear about this.
However, Sima Yi still underestimated the importance of Cao Cao to Cao Pi.
Sima Yi was filled with helplessness as he watched Cao Pi follow Bai Feng to the Copper Sparrow Pavilion without hesitation.
However, at this point, Sima Yi couldn't stop Cao Pi at all. Seeing the three people quickly leave after finding horses, Sima Yi let out a long sigh and led Sima Zhao and the others forward slowly.
