Chapter 85: This is the ultimate insult to the Sima family!

The Sima family guards outside the door were stunned.

Besides the guards, only Sima Yan and Cao Huan remained in the room. This was clearly not Sima Yan's voice, but someone else's. Wasn't it obvious that Cao Huan wanted to acknowledge Sima Yan as his adoptive father?

At that moment, even the guards were amused. Before his death, Cao Mao uttered a famous saying that has been passed down through the ages: "Sima Zhao's intentions are obvious to everyone." This saying is still being sung two thousand years later.

The guards themselves knew that the Sima family wanted to emulate the Cao Wei dynasty's replacement of the Han dynasty by replacing the Wei dynasty with the Jin dynasty. Therefore, today's meeting was an opportunity for Sima Yan to further weaken Cao Huan.

However, at this moment, the voice of the adoptive father could be heard from inside, saying things like, "The Cao family has been wandering for half their lives, and only regrets that they have not met a wise father. If you do not abandon me, I am willing to become your adoptive father." This amused the guard.

However, he then heard Sima Yan's voice. Despite coughing, Sima Yan said, "My son, please rise!"

The guards immediately stopped acting on their own and silently retreated, guessing that the disturbance had been caused by their adoptive father.

At the same time, he was also thinking that since the emperor had already recognized his son, Prince Jin, as his adoptive father, wouldn't it be only right for him to abdicate? Perhaps he could also become a minister who supported the emperor's rise to power.

Meanwhile, inside the Taiji Hall, Cao Huan was utterly horrified. Sima Yan, who had been terrified, suddenly stopped struggling after hearing Li Ge call him "godfather," as if possessed.

Sima Yan seemed to have forgotten that his personal guard's body was still warm, and immediately said, "My son, please rise!"

After hearing Li Ge's string of words about how he had been wandering for half his life and had become her godfather, he couldn't stop laughing. He quickly stepped forward to help Li Ge up, completely ignoring the fact that the blood of the guards at his feet had flowed all over the ground.

Just like how Sima Yan was bewitched by the sorcery of a sorcerer!

At that moment, Cao Huan felt an indescribable fear, followed by overwhelming joy.

Yes, he was ecstatic. He wasn't afraid that Li Ge had sorcery. Even if he used sorcery on himself, the foundation of Cao Wei would still rot in the hands of the Cao family, instead of being handed over to the Sima family.

In this era, there were many records of sorcery and evil arts, but most of them were tricks used by charlatans. They even instigated the Yellow Turban Rebellion that swept through the Han Dynasty and the Taoist Yu Ji of Eastern Wu, making sorcery and similar things not so rare in aristocratic circles.

But how come my younger brother's sorcery seems to have been learned from Lü Wenhou? And that phrase about "wandering half a lifetime" is also Lü Wenhou's original words, isn't it?

"Ahem, cousin, what's this?" Cao Huan asked immediately, then turned to see that the prodigy Sima Yan, known as the Tiger of the Sima family, was now patting his cousin happily as if under a spell, repeatedly calling him "my son."

Despite the bizarre scene, Cao Huan felt as comfortable as if he were wearing new undergarments for the New Year.

"Brother, this is my adoptive father. I have been wandering for half my life, and I only regret that I have not met a wise ruler. My adoptive father treats me like his own son. Soon I will be able to change my surname to Sima and inherit my adoptive father's throne." Li Ge kept giving Cao Huan meaningful glances, and Cao Huan immediately understood.

Although it was their first meeting, they had already put on a perfect team effort.

Cao Huan also performed exceptionally well, and he immediately started chatting with Sima Yan.

"Godfather, look into my eyes, and I will analyze the general trend of the world for you!" The next moment, Li Ge lit up his golden eyes.

In that instant, those flashlight-like eyes shocked Cao Huan once again, followed by an indescribable surge of joy.

Haha, my cousin has a natural talent; his eyes are like thunder from the heavens, he has the bearing of an emperor!

Cao Wei is saved! Cao Wei is saved!

For some reason, Cao Huan even felt a surge of emotion, as if she wanted to cry.

Li Ge temporarily ignored Cao Huan, as he wanted to control Sima Yan as much as possible.

His second permanent ability is the hypnotic eye.

For some reason, even though recognizing a thief as one's father is completely unaffected by the school's magic ban, the Lion's Eye and Hypnotic Eye have been basically reduced to nothing by the magic ban.

The Lion's Eye only has this high beam effect, while the Hypnotic Eye requires a significantly increased time to induce hypnosis, and may even belong to Schrödinger's hypnosis.

When Li Ge arrived at this magical book catalog, she calculated that if she were to be completely controlled by the current hypnotic eyes, she would have to stare at another person for a full hour without stopping!

Who's crazy enough to stare at another person for a whole hour?!

Aren't your eyes dry?

However, there are no useless treasures, only useless people. Li Ge has actually figured out how to use this thing now.

Recognizing a thief as one's father, one can become the godfather of another and receive the godfather's unreasonable favor.

Of course, recognizing a thief as one's father is merely a form of affection, and it cannot achieve complete control. However, Li Ge used the pretext of analyzing the general situation of the world to create a time when he could stare at Sima Yan for more than an hour!

"It is said that the world, after a long period of division, tends to unite, and after a long period of unity, tends to divide. The mighty Yangtze River flows eastward, its waves washing away the heroes of the past..." Li Ge immediately began to tell Sima Yan a story. Sima Yan, who had been tricked into recognizing a thief as his father, did not care at all. He looked at his adopted son and talked about the state of the world together.

Cao Huan was thoroughly amused by what he saw. He didn't disturb Li Ge, but remained a silent bystander.

Two hours later, until midnight, a full two hours had passed. Even the guards outside the Taiji Hall were getting impatient. This time, Li Ge didn't suppress her voice and continued to tell her story.

Inside the Taiji Hall, the passionate narration of Li Ge could be heard intermittently, and Sima Yan's clapping and laughter could be heard at other times. The guards outside the door listened intently, thinking that the Prince of Jin was discussing history with His Majesty. No one expected that blood had already flowed like a river inside the hall.

[Hypnotic Eyes, complete hypnosis achieved. Current subject: Sima Yan!]

Become!

Li Ge's lips immediately curled up. Everything was for this moment. Although there were many coincidences, the original plan was to burn down the palace and exterminate the Sima clan. However, after meeting Cao Huan, Cao Huan became the scapegoat for the Sima clan's extermination.

When he discovered that it was Sima Yan who had arrived, he immediately had an even better idea.

If so, wouldn't Sima Yan's extermination of the Sima family be considered the ultimate insult to the Sima family?

Whether it was to see this ultimate insult to the Sima family, or because Li Ge felt that Sima Yan's army and power were also very strong, he finally decided to spend so much effort to control Sima Yan.

And now, it's all done!

"Brother, let's go! Tonight, we'll burn the Jin mansion to ashes!" Li Ge reached out his hand to Cao Huan. He remembered the scene where his good-for-nothing brother had desperately blocked Sima Yan.

He acknowledged this brother, and even after he was gone, Li Ge was determined to give this imperial brother a good ending.

……

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Luoyang, Xiao Ye transformed into a shadow and silently glided past the guards' feet. These guards, who were monitoring Liu Shan, had no idea that something had just passed by.

In fact, she had met Liu Shan during the day. When she revealed that she was Jiang Wei's man, Liu Shan cried and cried and cried. The fat old man cried like a child.

While crying, she recited incomprehensible phrases such as "The late emperor passed away before completing his great undertaking," "I was originally a commoner," and "He thrice visited me in my thatched hut."

Because of this, Xiaoye had a very bad impression of Liu Shan, thinking that he was a useless emperor and that the entire Shu Han was only supported by that old general.

But now, she still wants to rescue this good-for-nothing, and that's why she's come here.

At this moment, under the oil lamp, Liu Shan held a letter in his hand, still stained with tears. It read: "Your Majesty has endured several days of humiliation. I wish to restore the state from peril to peace, and to restore the sun and moon from darkness to light."
