1. Treating superiors
First of all, Sima Yi’s father is Sima Fang, who once brought Cao Cao to him. Cao Cao wanted to recruit Sima Yi to the court to serve as an official in order to repay his former favor. However, Sima Yi rejected Cao Cao’s offer on the grounds of "leg problems". Many people would have questions. Why did Sima Yi reject Cao Cao, 于 What are his benefits? ?
In fact, this question can be considered from several points. The first is the political aspect. At that time, it happened to be the sixth year of Jian'an, and Cao Cao had not truly unified the north. In addition, Sima Yi was only 22 years old, life experience and experience Not enough .
In addition, Sima Yi has been deeply influenced by Confucianism since he was a child, and his father's education is very strict, which makes him always behave and do everything with proper consideration and consideration. "Three Kingdoms" once recorded that Sima Yi and Hu Zhao had a deep friendship. It is said that they were friends who knew each other in their youth, so that Sima Yi later ascended the throne of God and still treated him with respect.

And Hu Zhao was a famous hermit in the Three Kingdoms period, so Sima Yi is more likely to advocate Confucianism when he was young. But the good times didn't last long. After a few years, Cao Hong discovered that Sima Yi pretended to be ill and deceived Cao Cao, and finally the Dongchuang incident happened.
Cao Cao was very angry when he learned of this, and once again sent someone to conscript Sima Yi, and at the same time kept his hand, if Sima Yi refused, he would immediately kill him. Unexpectedly, this time Sima Yi got the gossip, and instead of waiting for the envoy to summon him, he took the initiative to see Cao Cao.

2. Treating colleagues and subordinates
Since Cao's clan Cao Shuang came to power, he began to control the military power and vigorously modify the court The system makes Sima Yi very dissatisfied with it. Immediately afterwards, Sima Yi pretended to be sick and hid at home , but in fact secretly planned to seize power.
Cao Shuang and others realized that Sima Yi was impure, so they sent his subordinate Li Sheng to visit Sima Yi to see if he was really sick. Li Sheng came to Sima Yi's home and saw that Sima Yi was really weak and sick, so he said to him that he was going to take office in Jingzhou soon, and he came to visit him.
However, Sima Yi pretended to be confused several times and mistaken Jingzhou for Bingzhou. made Li Sheng believe that Sima Yi was really gone.After being dying of illness, he couldn't even understand the words. When it was approaching, Sima Yi also planned for his two sons, saying that he would ask Li Shengduo for help.
In this way, Li Sheng was completely caught in the trap set up by Sima Yi, thinking that Sima Yi was alive soon, and notified Cao Shuang of the news. Cao Shuang was finally convinced that Sima Yi no longer poses any threat to him, so he no longer has any defenses against Sima Yi.
Unexpectedly, this negligence caused Cao Shuang to be killed by Sima Yi in a subsequent coup and his military power was taken away. The entire Cao Wei power became the Sima family's power.

3. Treating friends
Sima Yi and Sagong Wang Ling are very good iron buddies, Sagon Wang Ling has always been They all treated Sima Yi as a brother, but he didn't expect to be ruined in his hands.
After Cao Shuang was killed by Sima Yi, Wang Ling was extremely dissatisfied with this, and asked to send troops to defeat Sima Yi. Sima Yi personally led the army to defeat Wang Ling. In order to make the other party unsuspicious, he repeated his tricks. not only pardoned Wang Ling's crime, but also wrote a letter to comfort him .
Not long after, the army suddenly came. Wang Ling wanted to ask Sima Yi to let him go. He wanted to try Sima Yi if he wanted to kill him, so he asked Sima Yi for two nails on the coffin. He didn't expect Sima Yi to be true. He was sent to him, Wang Ling desperate had to commit suicide .

However, Why did Sima Yi kill Wang Ling ? From Sima Yi's personal point of view, there may be the following reasons. Although Wang Ling is seven years older than Sima Yi, his physical condition has always been very good. Even when the coup was launched, Sima Yi felt that he would not live long, but Wang Ling was still alive and healthy.
Furthermore, Wang Ling is a minister of the imperial court, Sima Yi is particularly afraid that his son Sima Shi will not be able to fight with Wang Ling in a hundred years, so he must take advantage of his breath to give Wang Ling Dealt with.
In any case, Sima Yi is free to deceive and fool his superiors, colleagues, subordinates or friends for the sake of power and status, and he does not even care about their lives. He is really not a gentleman.
People like him, even if they have supreme power later, still cannot get rid of the hypocritical and insidious label.

1. Treating colleagues
As long as the political opponents are down, Sima Yi will kill them and even their homes People don't let it go, everyone has to become the souls of the sword, which is really shocking.

2. Treating the next person
If you want to know whether a person is kind, you can judge by his attitude towards the next person. When Sima Yi first claimed that he was sick and deceived Cao Cao, one day when he was drying books at home, it suddenly rained heavily. Sima Yi went to collect the books unconsciously. This was seen by a servant girl in the house.
Sima Yi’s wife Zhang Chunhua was afraid that the maid would be publicized, so she personally learned about the maid , and after the incident, she pretended that nothing happened. However, instead of scolding Zhang Chunhua, Sima Yi paid more attention to the wife, because even if she didn't do anything, she would find a chance to kill the maid.
In Sima Yi's eyes, the life of a man is like a livestock, if he wants to kill him, he will never let a handmaid ruin his own future.

3. Treating the wife
Although Zhang Chunhua was cruel, but she gave birth to Sima Yi for the sake of Sima Yi. , But because of his old age, he was less and less liked by Sima Yi. When Sima Yi was in bed, Zhang Chunhua was particularly worried, so he came to visit, did not expect that he was inexplicably cursed by Sima Yi. He is an old stuff .
In this way, Zhang Chunhua is ashamed, resentful and angry, and even has a desire to die. Fortunately, the child is still on her side and accompanies her on a hunger strike. After Sima Yi knew about it, he quickly apologized to his wife, which calmed the whole thing down. did not expect that Sima Yi would say to outsiders , his wife is not worthy 可忧 , But suffered a few sons.

As a husband, he has no laws to persuade his wife to be good, but he falls into trouble after his wife has done all the bad things for him; as a father, he has not been a role model for his son , But let them do whatever they want, lawless.
Sima Yi is a selfish, vicious and cunning person , he is not a good man, a good courtier, nor a good husband and father, even his descendants, Sima Zhao, think he is very shameful.
According to historical records, the Emperor Ming Emperor of Jin Dynasty once asked the director Wang about the whole process of Sima’s gaining the world. After hearing this, he was ashamed and embarrassed. He buried his face directly on the bed and did not want to lift it up. It can be seen that Sima Yi is really unpopular, saying that he is vicious, it is not wrong at all.
