Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

Chapter 129: People Thousands of Years Later, the Future of the Sima Family

"Happy birthday~"

Sima Yi looked at the box in front of him and his heart moved slightly. He knew that today was the one-year anniversary of their acquaintance, but he just regarded it as a time to gain points. He didn't expect that Shisui would regard it as his birthday and even prepared a gift.

Shisui's dark pupils turned as he looked at Sima Yi expectantly, and said, "Grandpa, open it and see if you like it. I spent a long time choosing it."

Sima Yi smiled, took the box and opened it in front of Shisui.

In the box lay a golden rabbit-hair brush with rosewood pattern, an exquisite paperweight and an inkstone.

Sima Yi stroked the pen gently, smiled, and nodded, "That's thoughtful. Grandpa likes it very much."

Seeing Sima Yi smiling, Shisui breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "This was custom-made in Kyoto. I hope Grandpa likes it."

Upon hearing this, Sima Yi closed the box and carefully put it aside. He never cared about such things, but he was still deeply touched by Shisui's care.

"Unconsciously, I have been here for a year. I get along very well with you and have never been separated from you for a long time. But this time, it seems that we will be separated for a while."

Shisui's smile disappeared immediately, and he asked immediately, "Grandpa, are you still going to the North?"

"That's right. Throughout my life, I have never cared about honor or disgrace. I just remember that fighting or enduring are both means, and the goal is the only thing that remains unchanged.

Our goal is the position of Hokage, so we must not tolerate it again this time. Some people are portraying this failure as the biggest defeat Konoha has experienced in fifty years. If we can lead the troops to victory, we will surely reap huge rewards.

The health of the Third Generation is getting weaker and weaker, and he may not live for many more years. This war is an excellent opportunity to gain military merit and military power. One of you and I must go. I decided to let Hui go to the north with me. Jiraiya will not care about it, and Nara Suzaku's reputation will be damaged.

With such a good opportunity, I will seek to seize military power. If successful, I will return with great prestige. If not, I will keep the enemy at bay and protect myself.”

Shisui opened his mouth, since the two of them agreed, he always listened to him, and although Sima Yi would not force them when they disagreed, Sima Yi was usually right and he could not give a reason to deny it.

"Then use these points to strengthen Grandpa!"

"No need. I am more worried about you than my safety."

"I?"

Shisui wondered, there were two pairs of Mangekyō in the clan's territory, who could do anything to him.

Sima Yi shook his head and said, "I don't know when I can come back, and you have been in Konoha for a long time, and the situation in Konoha is changing faster and faster. You can't say for sure that the Third Generation will have an accident one day.

If you fail to seize the opportunity in time and allow the top management to bring in a young and strong younger person to take the position, then our means of getting promoted will have to be even more ruthless, which will leave some troubles.

So call on someone, preferably a colleague who has a flamboyant personality but is also familiar with human nature.

As for the strengthening effect, I'd better wait until the situation stabilizes before trying it. I can still afford to wait for this little while."

Shisui was in a bad mood and asked, "If someone who knows military tactics and can fight comes, can we let him go to the north instead of grandpa?"

Sima Yi shook his head and explained, "Your people are not so easy to control. I have been with them for a long time and they know me well. That is why they are willing to obey my orders. If someone else were to do it, it would be bad."

Sima Yi had experience in this regard. After training, the newcomer would probably still be a single-magatama Genin. With this kind of strength, it would take more effort to subdue the Uchiha clan members.

However, they had to wait for the funding from the daimyo to arrive before they could set off, so they no longer had time.

“In the coming period, Konoha’s military strength will be low, and the external situation will be more dangerous than before. They will have to rely on the power of the Uchiha clan and relax their suppression of the clan.

So you have to take this opportunity to increase your influence, win people's hearts, and expand the police department. This requires a strong strategist who has clear interests and is good at seeing people's hearts to help you."

Shisui was deeply moved and did not refute, but his eyes were red and he nodded repeatedly.

"I understand, Grandpa. I will keep this in mind."

"Haha, why are you crying? I haven't left yet. Before I leave, I want to get to know the next colleague I meet. Maybe he is someone I know." Sima Yi sighed, feeling quite expectant.

Upon hearing this, Shisui's face turned red, and he quickly wiped away his tears, calmed down his emotions, and then called out to the panel in his heart.

Score: 1
Military Advisor: Sima Yi (Number of Enhancements: 0)

"Grandpa, it's time."

"let's start."

Shisui's mind moved, points were consumed, and the moonlight by the window gradually turned into a figure under the influence of a mysterious force.

Sima Yi's pupils shrank. This power of creating people out of thin air was too terrifying. Shisui was unaware of it and just tilted his head to look forward.

The man was not as tall as Sima Yi and was a little fat, but his red robe was particularly eye-catching.

After he appeared, he looked around blankly. After a moment, he reacted and touched his neck. Then he held his forehead and covered his eyes. After he digested the extra memories in his brain, he suddenly laughed wildly.

"Uchiha Shisui, the ninja world?
Hahaha, I never thought that Your Majesty's years of cultivation would lead to me having an adventure. How ridiculous."

After saying this, his expression was still somewhat indignant, but he quickly calmed down and turned to look at the two of them.

Only then did Shisui see the other person's face clearly. He looked to be about 40 years old, with a righteous expression. His first impression was much better than Sima Yi's at the beginning.

Besides being upright, his manners are also quite dignified and his aura is very strong. He should be in a high position. However, he seems to have a feeling of being overbearing and unruly.

While observing, Shisui stepped forward and bowed, "Sir, I am Uchiha Shisui. May I know your name?"

The red-robed man looked Shisui up and down and nodded, knowing that the other party was the one he would teach in the future. He did not act rudely and immediately bowed and said with a smile: "Hahaha, my name is Yan Shifan, and my courtesy name is Deqiu. If you wish, you can call me teacher."

After saying that, he glanced at Sima Yi again. There was a clear difference in the way Shisui dressed compared to him. Sima Yi, who was wearing a long robe, was more similar to him.

A thought flashed through his mind: there was actually an outsider in such an occasion, he must be a trusted and important person.

He had some guesses in his mind, and he did not hide them, so he asked immediately: "Who is this person?"

Yan Shifan?

Tianshui strict style?

A two-character name, probably came from a commoner or a Hu person.

Hearing this name, many thoughts flashed through Sima Yi's mind. After realizing that the other party noticed him, he immediately bowed and smiled, "I am Sima Yi, with the courtesy name Zhongda."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Yan Shifan's expression suddenly changed. He stared at Sima Yi with wide eyes and took two steps back without making a sound. He seemed to be quite suspicious, "Could it be that Emperor Xuan is here in person?"

Emperor Xuan?

Shisui was shocked, the Emperor was more powerful than Daimyo in the knowledge Sima Yi taught him, he didn't expect that his grandfather had been an emperor.

Sima Yi had anticipated this and didn't care. After all, this path had already been walked by others, and the younger generation just had to follow it and the chances of success were very high.

What he cared about was Yan Shifan's attitude. The other party retreated immediately after hearing his name, which made it obvious that he was not in the same camp as him.

Moreover, it would take at least several decades to usurp the throne and become emperor. Judging from the other party's appearance, the other party was probably not even born when he died. The fact that there are still hostile camps after so many years shows that the country has still not been unified.

Thinking of this, Sima Yi frowned slightly.

But before he opened his mouth, Yan Shifan realized the problem and changed his words: "I think it must be the Grand Tutor in person. I have heard of your great name for a long time."

Sima Yi nodded and said, "That's right, old man. I don't know when you were born, but you know about my future. Can you tell me something?"

Your funeral? After confirming the other party's identity, Yan Shifan was shocked by the mysterious power, looked at Sima Yi with a smile, and nodded: "I was born in the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty, a thousand years ago from the chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty."

"It's been a thousand years!"

Sima Yi was shocked that this mysterious power could allow two people who were separated by a thousand years to meet here. He looked at Yan Shifan and wanted to know whether his family would finally unify the country.

"Yes, I didn't expect to see the Master. As for what happened after the Master, hahaha~"

In front of Sima Yi, Yan Shifan no longer called himself "old man", but he suddenly laughed out loud while speaking, which made Sima Yi feel depressed, but he remained calm.

"After the Grand Tutor, Sima Shi also died. Sima Zhao became the Duke of Jin and murdered the emperor in the street. This act will be remembered for all eternity."

What? ! !
Killing the emperor in the street and making it known to the world, leaving your name in history, how can this have a good ending?

Sima Yi's eyelids twitched. He knew very well that such things could only be done in the imperial palace. If they were exposed to the eyes of the people of the world, it would be fine when the Sima family was strong, but once they became weak, how could the successors let them go?

But even a powerful dynasty like the Han Dynasty was destroyed. How could there be an immortal dynasty in the world? As Yan Shifan mentioned, a thousand years later, the Ming Dynasty ruled the world.

Na Sima's
"After Cao Mao's death, Sima Zhao conquered Shu Han. After Sima Zhao's death, Sima Yan ascended the throne and then conquered Eastern Wu, unified the country, and established the Jin Dynasty.

However, the consequences of Luoshui's breach of contract and the murder of the emperor in the street must have been clear to the Grand Tutor. After Sima Yan, power fell into the hands of others, and there were endless wars both inside and outside the country. In the end, Liu Yu broke the dynasty and the whole clan was wiped out. "

Yan Shifan couldn't stop smiling and spoke very happily. Zhishui was listening at the side, his mouth twitching and his eyes moving back and forth, not knowing what to say.

Even with Sima Yi's shrewdness, he still found it difficult to calm down when he heard that his family had met such an end.

He knew that Luoshui's breach of contract would have a great impact, but he did not care because it had come to the last step. As long as future generations followed Wang Mang's steps, they could successfully usurp the throne.

Anyway, Cao Pi has already done it, and there won't be much opposition in the world. After the Sima family comes to power, they can slowly cleanse the place up.

But he really didn't expect that Sima Zhao could actually let the emperor break out of the palace, and that the Cao family actually produced another powerful man. It was really that God did not help the Sima family. It was a pity that Shi'er died so quickly. If he were still alive, he would not be so reckless.

Sima Yi sighed for a moment and finally calmed down. No matter what, he was already dead in that world, so let him take care of what happened after his death.

Seeing Sima Yi's determination, Yan Shifan added, "Because of Sima Zhao's actions, two sayings appeared in later generations and became widely circulated.

One sentence is 'Sima Zhao's intention is known to everyone.'

Another sentence is "The emperor should have strong soldiers and horses." Your Sima family's actions have caused endless disputes in the world, and constant wars both inside and outside the country, which led to the Five Barbarians' invasion of China, the fall of the Central Plains, and the forced migration of the Han people to the south. The north was almost assimilated to the barbarians, and the Han people were almost exterminated. This is the cycle of justice, and it is what it should be."

Yan Shifan sneered. In his opinion, everyone should despise the stupid things done by the Sima family. However, he thought of himself after just a few sneers.

He had done so many evil things that he ended up like this.

No, the Ming Dynasty was on his shoulders. There were so many corrupt officials in the world. Was it only his Yan family that was like this?
Why bother pursuing that little thing of his?
The old guy in the Xu family is much more cruel than him. He was about to be granted a title of nobility, but Your Majesty has not punished him. The little Jiajing deserves that he will not get the chance to become an immortal.

Thinking of this, Yan Shifan felt much more comfortable.

Sima Yi did not refute, but stroked his beard in silence, wondering what he was thinking.

But Shisui's expression was very unpleasant, and he said directly: "Don't you dare say that about Grandpa!"

Ok?
The two of them paused and looked at him. Shisui's face turned red, but he didn't know how to explain himself. After all, even he found it hard to accept those things in his heart.

grandfather?

Yan Shifan looked at the relationship between the two and felt a pang in his heart, thinking that something was not good.

Sima Yi waved his hand and chuckled, "It doesn't matter. What happens after death has nothing to do with me. Let him be."

"You are worthy of being the Grand Tutor. Your mind is far more open-minded than most people can. I admire you." Yan Shifan bowed and stopped provoking the two men.

Seeing this, Shisui gave up, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly walked to the side to bring chairs for the two of them.

"Shisui's words slipped, I hope you won't blame me, Grandpa, please sit down and talk."

"No problem. Sincerity is the most precious thing. Please, Master."

The three of them sat down. Yan Shifan had a limited understanding of this world and felt uneasy, so he tried his best to control his emotions.

Sima Yi and Shisui did not ask him about the other world anymore, but tried their best to tell him about the background of the ninja world, what happened in the past year, and the current situation of the Uchiha.

With the experience of talking with Sima Yi, Shisui added a lot of information that had been overlooked at the beginning.

The three chatted for a long time, most of the time it was Sima Yi and Yan Shifan talking, and Zhishui listened attentively on the side.

Yan Shifan was knowledgeable, had a good memory, was familiar with the rules and regulations, had read history books thoroughly and was eloquent. The two chatted for a long time, and Sima Yi had a preliminary understanding of him.

At this time, Shisui seemed to still be unwilling to give up and asked, "Sir, do you know military strategy?"

Yan Shifan's eyes flickered slightly, and he explained with a smile: "I have flipped through a few pages of military books, but I have never had the opportunity to lead troops into battle."

"I see."

Shisui was a little disappointed. In this case, Sima Yi could only go to the north. He had no choice but to continue asking, "Sir, what do you think Uchiha should do next?"

Yan Shifan raised his hand and stroked his beard. He knew that this was Shishui's test.

However, in his opinion, the Uchiha situation was very good and there was no difficulty.

"Once the war breaks out in the north, the Uchiha will be the pillar of Konoha, and their status will continue to rise. As long as the north is unstable, Konoha will be unable to do anything to you. So in the next period of time, just identify the enemy, eliminate dissidents, expand your power, and develop at will."

Shisui's heart was slightly moved. The other party's opinion was not much different from Sima Yi's. He immediately realized that the other party was also talented and knowledgeable. He immediately felt respect for him and stood up and bowed, saying: "Teacher, your strategy is amazing, and your ideas are exactly the same as mine. I hope you can give me more guidance in the future."

Gone?

Yan Shifan raised his eyebrows and looked at Sima Yi, suddenly feeling bored. It would be a waste of their talents to let the two of them handle such a small matter. It would be better to let that stupid boy Gao Hanwen come to practice.

However, he still smiled and chatted with Shisui for a few words, then felt sleepy, so Shisui immediately left to get the food he had prepared in advance.

The midnight snack was not luxurious, but Yan Shifan had lived through a lot of hard times, so he did not complain. After the meal, he went to sleep in the room prepared by Zhishui.

After Zhishui arranged for Yan Shifan, he returned to the study, only to see Sima Yi staring at the roster.

I saw that there was an extra person on the list out of nowhere, with some information attached.

"To tamper with consciousness, create humans out of thin air, connect the two worlds, and communicate between the past and the present, what a great power!"

Sima Yi sighed softly, feeling a desire in his heart.

Shisui watched from the side without saying anything. After a while, when Sima Yi put away the list, he said, "Grandpa, what do you think of this teacher?"

Sima Yi commented: "I think Deqiu is familiar with government affairs, has a good understanding of economic affairs, and has a deep understanding of people's interests. He is also an important official of the country, and his personality is quite outspoken. He is very suitable for Uchiha. After I go north, he can be relied on by the family. When I am in doubt, I will ask him more questions."

After hearing what he said, Shisui nodded repeatedly. He naturally believed in Sima Yi's judgment and just sighed: "It's a pity that he doesn't understand military strategy."

Sima Yi knew what he was thinking, smiled and comforted him: "No one is perfect, don't force it. It's late tonight, go back and rest. I will hand over the affairs of the clan to him in the next few days."

"Okay, Grandpa."
