It was also late at night in the Sima Residence.
"Zhao 'er, Shi' er."
Sima Yi sat upright on the chair, stroking his beard as he spoke to his two sons.
"Do you know what the Prime Minister's words mean today?"
Sima Shi rubbed his chin and cupped his hands.
"Right now, Bai Feng is the military advisor and has a high position. Moreover, Cao Chun is on good terms with him, and the Ferocious Cavalry's Golden Seal Tiger Tally is in his hands."
"This Bai Feng has reached the highest position in both civil and military affairs!"
"Father, should we …"
Sima Yi waved his hand and said.
"Absolutely not!"
"The two of you must remember to tell everyone in the Sima clan not to have any dealings with this person!"
"But you must not become enemies with this Bai Feng!"
Sima Shi and Sima Zhao were stunned.
No one had ever been so important to their father!
But right now, Bai Feng held a high position and power. It was certain that they would not become enemies with him. Clearly, it was best to be on good terms with him.
Why would their father say that?
But since their father said so, the two of them did not dare to disobey and hurriedly nodded.
"Young Master should not be asleep yet. The two of you take my message and go find him."
Then, Sima Yi stood up.
… …
Right now, in Cao Zhi's residence.
After Xu Changcheng was rescued, Cao Zhi hurriedly rushed back to Xu Chang.
If he did not reach Xu Chang before his father came, it would be really troublesome.
With his father's personality, even if he did not blame him, he would still feel disgust.
"We lost this time!"
Thinking about how his father praised his second brother during the day, but did not even look at him, Cao Zhi's face became serious.
Yang Xiu stood up and said.
"The one who is depressed right now should not be Young Master Pi, right?"
Hearing this, Cao Zhi immediately sat up straight and narrowed his eyes.
"Oh? What does Ancestor De mean? "
Yang Xiu narrowed his eyes, stroked his small beard, and continued.
"Although the prime minister praised Young Master Pi for his meritorious service this time."
"But in the prime minister's eyes, Young Master is the prime minister's favorite. The prime minister also thinks that Young Master is more similar to him."
"So there's no need to worry about this."
"Because Young Master, we have more things to think about."
Cao Zhi laughed heartily.
"As expected of Ancestor De. I agree with your words!"
"That's right. What I'm more worried about right now is whether I should have any contact with Bai Feng."
"Bai Feng is now in an important position. Cao Chun, the commander of the Ferocious Cavalry, is also very good to him.
"In other words, Bai Feng's position in the literary and martial world is almost the highest."
"Wouldn't it be better to be on good terms with him?"
Yang Xiu shook his head.
"Young Master, although this Bai Feng is very powerful now, it's very dangerous!"
"Do you know why the Prime Minister wants to put Bai Feng in an important position?"
Cao Zhi narrowed his eyes.
"Wasn't he the one who defended Xuchang and provided amazing strategies in Xinye and Red Cliff? Father admired him?"
Yang Xiu chuckled.
"That's not it. Although these are indeed some factors."
"But Young Master neglected the most important factor."
"Because Bai Feng dared to kill Chen Deng and stand against the landowning households!"
"What do you mean?"
Cao Zhi was somewhat puzzled.
Wasn't it a bad thing to stand against the landowning households?
Bai Feng had almost lost his head because of this. If not for the fact that his father valued his talent, he would have been punished today.
How did he become an important factor for his father to put him in an important position?
Yang Xiu continued.
"Right now, the landowning households are like the sun in the sky. The power in their hands is not low. The Prime Minister has long wanted to suppress them, but he has never had the time or the person to use."
"But at this time, Bai Feng stood up and stood against the landowning households. Therefore, he is the best candidate that the Prime Minister can use now."
"So that's how it is …"
Cao Zhi nodded his head thoughtfully and continued to ask,
"Then should we be on good terms with him?" “
Yang Xiu waved his hand.
"Absolutely not!"
"Young Master is now fighting for the position of heir, but he killed Chen Deng."
"If he killed Chen Deng, it means that Young Master has made his stance clear. He wants to become enemies with the landowning households."
"The landowning households are not weak at the moment. The Prime Minister only wants to make a move, but he hasn't carried it out yet."
"If Young Master becomes enemies with the landowning households, it will do no good to the position of heir."
"Without the support of the landowning households, it will be very difficult for Young Master to compete with Young Master Pi."
"Why don't we wait for the Prime Minister to make a move against the landowning households? Once the landowning households decline, it won't be too late for us to immediately become friends with Bai Feng."
Hearing this, Cao Zhi came to a sudden realization. He immediately laughed and said:
"Ancestor De is truly thoughtful! Let's do as Ancestor De says! "
"Come, let's continue drinking!"
After saying that, Cao Zhi drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.
… …
At this moment, in Cao Ren's camp …
Bai Feng saw that Lv Lingqi had run away and didn't want to chase after her. He could only return to the camp.
As soon as Bai Feng arrived at the camp, he blinked his eyes at the smell of alcohol that filled the air.
Cao Chun and Cao Ren were hugging each other and snoring as they slept. The table in the tent was also in a mess, and the cups and wine jars were almost all broken.
Li Yuanba, on the other hand, was holding the two giant hammers and sleeping soundly on the ground.
Looking at the hammer marks on the table, it was obvious that Li Yuanba had drunk too much.
Fortunately, he had prepared the pills in advance. Otherwise, with Li Yuanba's brute force, it was hard to say whether or not he wouldn't cause havoc in the camp.
Bai Feng couldn't bear to see this debauched scene. He didn't walk in, turned around, walked out of the tent, and sat down on the training ground.
"System, open the shop!"
Bai Feng's mind moved, and the shop's page appeared in front of him.
At the bottom of the page, there were 20,000 reputation points.
After such a long time, he had finally completed the difficult task given by the system.
However, with these 20,000 reputation points, he was finally able to buy some good things in the shop.
Bai Feng looked at the dazzling array of weapons in the shop, but he wasn't interested.
In terms of weapons, he already had the Verdant Sword. If he had a better weapon, it would just be icing on the cake.
Moreover, if the new weapon was seen by Cao Cao, it would be hard to explain.
As for defensive equipment, what he had on him was enough.
Let's not talk about the fact that his agility was full, no one could hurt him.
Even if they could hurt him, with their current weapons, they wouldn't be able to pierce through his armor.
While looking through, Bai Feng saw an extremely interesting item.
"Eye of the White Swamp."
This item looked like a pearl. Although it didn't look too flashy, the attributes made Bai Feng quite interested.
"Eye of the White Swamp.
