Chapter 53 Nine, plan to earn Jia Xu

Although Jia Xu claimed that he could not afford to be sick and refused customers behind closed doors, Sima Yi's request to see him again made him unable to refuse.To reject Sima Yi is to reject Cao Pi, the handsome man behind Sima Yi, but the serious consequences of offending Cao Pi, who has always been narrow-minded, really make Jia Xu dare not make mistakes.Therefore, Jia Xu had no choice but to let his family take Sima Yi into the dormitory where he was bedridden.I could only hear the sound of steady and powerful footsteps gradually approaching outside the dormitory. With a "squeak", the door opened and Sima Yi walked in slowly.Jia Xu was half lying on the bed, quietly looking at his face and temperament.This is one of the few times in Jia Xu's life when he observes someone so intently like today.Generally speaking, such a person will be someone who has had an important impact on his life, such as Prime Minister Cao, Dong Zhuo, etc.

Although Sima Yisu claimed to be of Confucian origin, Jia Xu could not see in him a trace of the pedantic air that literati and Confucian scholars usually have.On the contrary, when he raises his hands, turns his eyes and looks around, sometimes he exudes a kind of vigor and vigor, as aggressive as a tiger or a leopard.However, most of the time, Sima Yi seems to be deliberately restraining his vigor, pretending to be obedient, unassuming, and extremely low-key, so that many courtiers think that he is just a submissive, cautious and fearful, relying on In the shadow of his father and brother, he is a middle-of-the-road talent who has risen steadily.But Jia Xu didn't see it that way.Sima Yi's real face, he is one of the few people in the world who knows deeply.

Jia Xu understands that sometimes a person's words and deeds at a critical moment may be the truest side of the person.The founding father of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wu Han, was thick and seldom written. He seemed to be dull and reticent, and he was not liked by civil servants. Battle exploits - it is really "a person cannot be judged by his appearance, and the sea cannot be measured".Sima Yi is naturally this "incomparable" expert.Moreover, in the process of promoting Cao Pi's succession to the throne, there are quite remarkable things, which is amazing. When Jia Xu was thinking to himself, Sima Yi had already walked in front of him.He leaned over with a very concerned expression, bowed deeply to Jia Xu, and said, "Mr. Jia, I am bothering you! Is your illness better?" Jia Xu pretended to be trembling and half sat up, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Sima .The old man is getting old, and he gets sick like this when he catches a cold occasionally. The older he gets, the more useless he becomes."

Sima Yi said indifferently: "Dr. Jia is a pillar of the court. Many important events are waiting for Dr. Jia to come out and preside over the overall situation after he recovers! Dr. Jia must not say such depressing words anymore. Moreover, the general of the five senses is also concerned about Dr. Jia's illness. Really, in the past few days, I have visited many master doctors, and finally found two prescriptions for Dr. Jia, so I specially asked Xiaosheng to deliver them to my door on his behalf, hoping to cure Dr. Jia's illness in time." When Jia Xu heard this, she suddenly raised her head and looked straight at Sima Yi, her gaze suddenly became as sharp as a knife's edge, as if she wanted to pierce into the depths of Sima Yi's heart.He smiled slightly, and said slowly: "That's really troublesome for the general of the five senses! I don't know what kind of two doses of medicine he sent? I hope Mr. Sima will tell you in detail."

"Tuo Xiaosheng, the doctor of the Five Senses, sent two prescriptions, one for cold and one for heat. Those famous doctors have said that the properties of these two prescriptions are opposite and complement each other. They can benefit both water and fire, and there are no diseases in the world. Cure." Sima Yi straightened his face, and said solemnly, "It's just that this prescription is too rare. If others hear it, it may be spread to the outside world. Instead, it has the good intentions of being a gentleman with five senses." After hearing this, Jia Xu's face sank like water, and he didn't say much. With a light wave of his hand, all the family members and concubines in the dormitory retreated, leaving only him and Sima Yi.

However, the room was still as silent as a deep water.Sima Yi just looked at Jia Xu quietly, without opening his mouth.After a long time, Jia Xu coughed and said slowly: "Now these two prescriptions, only God knows, Earth knows, you know, I know, the five senses will know, you can say it, no one will leak it. " Sima Yi said leisurely: "Since General Zhang Xiu took refuge with Prime Minister Cao four years ago, Dr. Jia has always been worried, kept his family behind him, retreated without personal acquaintances, married his children without marrying high families, and settled in poverty. It is completely self-protection. The door, Niannian has no conflict with the world. Scholars live in this troubled world, just like what Dr. Jia did, they must be called wise. However, the officialdom is dangerous, and safety and danger are unpredictable. And feel sad for it. Dr. Jia has retreated to such a situation, shouldn’t it lead to unwarranted disasters?”

Jia Xu didn't say a word, her face was solemn, she just quietly listened to Sima Yi's slow talk.At this moment, Sima Yi's tone was paused, and after a while, he said with emotion: "It's just sad that Dr. Jia has worked so hard to protect himself and avoid disasters, but he never expected that although I have no intention of seeking others, others are Harmful to me. Dr. Jia was cautious all his life and only wanted to avoid disasters, but now disasters are falling from the sky, and there is no way to avoid them!" These words were like a thunderbolt out of thin air, shaking Jia Xu's heart.Rao is very deep in his city, his emotions and anger are invisible, and his face can't help but change slightly.The room was silent for a moment like a deep pool.Sima Yi stared at Jia Xu, but saw him smile slowly, and said slowly, "Mr. Sima's alarmist words almost frightened the old man. I have never complained to anyone in my life, and I have made great contributions to the country. Where does the trouble come from?"

Jia Xu deserves to be Jia Xu!Sima Yi secretly sighed in his heart, this man is not surprised when he changes unexpectedly, he is not disturbed when he scratches suddenly, he is used to the big wind and the big waves, and he is also used to the big wind and the big waves, he really is a master in troubled times who has been tempered through hard work!This calmness is enough for me to learn it after several years of experience.Sima Yi immediately settled down and brought his thoughts back to the main topic.After pondering for a while, he slowly took out a roll of silk from his sleeve, put it on his palm, and said slowly: "This is the first prescription that the doctor of five senses will find for Doctor Jia. The medicinal properties of this prescription are It is cold."

Jia Xu hesitated for a moment, then slowly reached out and took the roll of silk, held it in her hand, opened it gently, and began to read it carefully.Sima Yi was sitting in front of his sick bed, carefully and interestingly observing his reaction and expression when he saw the scroll of silk.He is verifying his various predictions about Jia Xu based on the performance of the peerless counselor Jia Xu at this moment, and using this to judge what level his predictive analysis ability has reached. However, after Jia Xu read the volume of silk from beginning to end, his expression and demeanor seemed calm as usual, without any extremes.He seemed to have expected everything written on the silk, without any surprise, anger or words.For the first time, Sima Yi felt the failure of his ability to predict, and couldn't help feeling a little sad.Could it be that this carefully concocted prescription has no effect?Didn't produce the slightest stimulation and touch to Jia Xu himself?He was a little inexplicably surprised.It shouldn't be like this!

Jia Xu slowly rolled up the silk, slowly closed her eyes and sat quietly for a long, long time, like an old monk in meditation, not saying a word or moving.Finally, without opening his eyes, he said slowly: "Thank you General Five Senses for sending this prescription. After using this old man, I really feel refreshed and my condition has really improved a lot." As soon as these words came out, Sima Yi suddenly felt relieved, and the prescription finally took effect.It seems that no matter how tortuous, complicated, and invisible the "medication" process is, Jia Xu finally felt the efficacy of this prescription.His personal admission is tantamount to accepting the conditions that Cao Pi prescribed for him in this prescription.In fact, this prescription is a copy of a secret memorandum written by Han Taiwei Yang Biao to His Majesty the Son of Heaven. He abdicated due to illness and returned to his hometown when he was old, "so that the remnants of Dong Zhuo will not be able to return to the court and humiliate the Han Dynasty."Moreover, on the silk, there are a few words written by the general of the five senses to Jia Xu.He told Jia Xu that he would definitely persuade His Majesty and the Prime Minister to suppress the performance and not approve it.And there is another meaning hidden in these few words, that is, as a general with five sense organs, since he has the ability to suppress Yang Biao's performance, he naturally also has the ability to get His Majesty and the Prime Minister to approve Yang Biao's performance.And all of this is in Jia Xu's thought.

What a smart person Jia Xu is, how could he not know the hatred and hostility towards him from those loyal officials of the Han Dynasty!Since he is regarded by them as the "remnant of Dong Zhuo" who disturbed the Han Dynasty, he cannot avoid being plotted against from time to time like today's Yang Biao secret memorial.Usually, the reason why these people dare not jump out and blatantly attack themselves is because behind them stands a powerful minister who is also intolerable by the Han Dynasty—Prime Minister Cao.And once an accident happened to Prime Minister Cao, who could take care of him between the government and the opposition?There is no way, his fate has been closely linked with the Cao family.Among the sons of the Cao family, Marquis Pingyuan has always adhered to etiquette and loyalty to the Han Dynasty. If the times change, he will definitely not stand on his own feet like his father, Prime Minister Cao, and do his own will, let alone protect himself. .Perhaps only this ulterior-minded general with five senses can be the heir who will truly inherit Prime Minister Cao's great ambitions in the future. With this in mind, Jia Xu stopped thinking about it.He was silent for a moment, still expressionless, and said slowly: "Please ask Mr. Sima to bring out another prescription!" Sima Yi's face was like still water, unfathomable.He slowly took out a silk paper letter from his sleeve, held it up in both hands, and respectfully presented it to Jia Xu like holding up an imperial decree that could be handed down for generations to come. Jia Xu also carefully took the silk paper letter with a solemn expression, held it in his hand, and slowly opened it.The five senses Zhonglang immediately caught Cao Pi's familiar handwriting in his eyes: If Cao Pi is established as Wei's son, the Jia family will be honored with the Cao family from generation to generation, and he will also present the title of Yang Biao Taiwei to Jia Gong. Although there were only thirty-four characters, Jia Xu quietly read it for half an hour.During this half an hour, he smelled the faint arrogance that Cao Pi left in the ink.This is just like Liu Bangkong, the penniless ancestor of the Han Dynasty, made a promise of ten thousand gold and asked for Lu Gong's daughter. Without great generosity and boldness, how could there be great careers and great achievements later!Looking at this letter, Jia Xu almost doubted whether it was written by Cao Pi, a general with five senses who always seemed narrow-minded and mediocre!However, this familiar handwriting proves that it is true. In fact, this letter was copied by Cao Pi after Sima Yi drafted it on his behalf.At that time, Cao Pi still complained that Sima Yi offered too generous conditions for Jia Xu.Sima Yi advised Cao Pi, "If respect is respected, the wise man will come, and if the salary is high, the righteous man will die lightly." If there is no big investment today, how can there be a big return tomorrow?What's more, Jia Xu really has the wisdom of Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, if he comes forward to lobby Prime Minister Cao, he will succeed.After much persuasion from Sima Yi, Cao Pi made up his mind, wrote this letter, and let Sima Yi come to negotiate with Jia Xu.Naturally, Jia Xu would never be able to read all the inside information from this letter alone.If he really knew the inside story, he might not be shocked by Cao Pi's generosity and grandeur, but would be dumbfounded by Sima Yi, a small army Sima, with such grandeur. At this moment Sima Yi was anxiously waiting secretly for Jia Xu's final reply.Although he seemed to be indifferent, his palms were already in a lot of cold sweat.Until the last moment, who would dare to talk about success or failure? Finally, Jia Xu slowly got up and got out of bed, and stood in the bedroom with her hands behind her back, but her expression gradually became more relaxed.He turned his head, looked at Sima Yi with a smile, and said, "Master of Five Senses, I don't know who invited a famous doctor to make this two prescriptions for cold and heat. It's really amazing! Mr. Sima, look Hasn’t the old man’s condition been cured already? I’m so grateful to the General of the Five Senses! Please go back and tell the General of the Five Senses, Mr. Sima, and say that Jia Xu is really grateful for his gift of medicine and will definitely repay it in the future!” It wasn't until this time that Sima Yi's visit to Jia's mansion was a complete success.He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, nodded again and again in agreement, then stood up knowingly, ready to leave.
