Three Kingdoms: I rely on system loopholes to survive

Chapter 147
"Boheng!"

Zhong Fang raised his head, and the first thing he saw was Cao Cao sitting cross-legged in the first place, wearing a black headband and an indigo short brown dress.

"Come on, come on."

Cao Cao smiled and waved to Zhongping, as if he was not surprised that he would enter Xuzhou alone.

Zhong Ping was in a daze for a while, as if he had returned to the time when he met Cao Cao for the first time, but this was not Xun Yu's official office, and his state of mind was far from the panic at that time.

"... Duke Cao."

Zhong Ping lowered his eyebrows, saluted respectfully, lifted the corner of his robe, and sat down.

He chose etic.

It is not far from Cao Cao, but it seems to be very different.

Cao Cao's raised hand paused for a moment in mid-air, and then retracted without realizing it. He rubbed the corner of his sleeve lightly, but was slightly distracted, regretting that he hadn't put on a robe today, so he could put his fingers in the wide sleeve.

"Boheng, haven't you seen your old friend?"

He held up the glass of wine and slightly faced Liu Bei who was sitting at the same guest table.

He knew early on that he and Zhongping would inevitably part ways.

It's just that I still want to delay that time point in my heart.

It is difficult for Cao Cao to express clearly what kind of emotion he has for Zhongping.

At the beginning, perhaps he was just surprised by Zhong Ping's assertion about Dong Zhuo, and he kept this name in his heart.

Afterwards, I heard that the opponent had won several battles with less.

A young talent with a high reputation and almost no black spots is indeed enough to arouse the interest of many princes.

In particular, this person still has an aura of "big Confucian biography" and "Han Dynasty loyalist" on his head. Even if he is accepted as a signboard under his command, it is attractive enough.

But even Cao Cao never thought that he would be able to get close to Zhongping so quickly, and he was still in such a little-known place in Dongjun.

It is simply God who does not take, and instead suffers.

It's a pity that he only had a few words with Zhongping before he realized that this person was destined not to join him.

Cao Cao has always judged people accurately, and this time is no exception.

He just felt sorry, as if Wei Zhong wanted to carve the rough jade of Zhongping according to his own ideas.

Cao Cao also felt at first, or most people felt, that the teenager Zhong Ping should be easily influenced, sculpted, and shaped.

He sees that Zhong Ping is a soft-tempered person, and he also tries to use the subtle influence of family affection to build a bond with the other party.

Facts have proved that this tactic has precisely grasped Zhongping's blind spot. Zhongping is completely unable to refuse the kindness of others, no matter whether there are ulterior motives behind those concerns.

Cao Cao almost succeeded, if Zhong Ping was a teenager.

Zhong Ping was really only one step away from serving him, just like today when he is sitting down, as long as he stands up and takes a few steps forward, he can sit next to Cao Cao again.

"Liu Fujun, don't come here unharmed."

Zhong Ping didn't know why he suddenly felt sore in his chest. When facing Liu Bei, he always easily put himself in the child's position, as if the person sitting opposite was not Liu Bei, but Zhong Ji.

He toasted Liu Bei earnestly. As soon as he stood up, he saw Zhang Fei staring at the wine glass in his hand. He looked like he wanted to drink, but he was trying to restrain his inner desire because of Liu Bei's warning.

The feeling of congestion in his flat chest dissipated a lot immediately, and a smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Shaofu... lost a lot of weight."

Liu Bei stared at Zhong Ping with bright eyes, with real concern on his face, Zhong Ping saw his own reflection in his eyes, and just realized why the potters always looked at him along the way, hesitating to speak.

In the past few days, he has indeed become a little too thin. If it were in the past, he would have to say a few words like "The belt is getting wider and wider, and I will not regret it, because Yi Xiao makes people haggard".

But now he was not in that mood, he was stunned for a moment, then changed the topic and asked: "How did the Fu Jun enter Xuzhou?"

"This... I'm ashamed to say it."

Liu Bei put down his glass of wine and recalled: "Young Mansion, do you still remember the Yellow Turban Guanhai? Beihai and General Li Feng went out to Beihai with the intention of contacting the Qingzhou Yellow Turban through Guan Hai's old department to inquire about the situation."

"Guan Hai made it clear that he and the Yellow Turbans all obeyed the orders of the virtuous master. The reason why he easily surrendered to the Shaofu was because he had lost contact with the virtuous master, he was hesitant and he had no leader."

"It can be deduced from this that the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans have surrounded Linzi for a long time. There are no good teachers and commanders outside, and it is difficult to unify internally. Even if they don't send people to inquire, they know that Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are unsustainable... If they capture Beihai and join Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, then Linzi will be in danger."

"In just a few days, news of the Yellow Turban's pacification really came from Linzi."

When Liu Bei said this, he also sighed a little.

"Bei wanted to withdraw his troops back to the plains, but he received a letter from Kong Beihai saying that Xuzhou..."

Liu Bei stopped talking and frowned tightly.

Zhongping is also speechless.

He insisted on asking Cao Hong and Liu Bei to go to Qingzhou, more or less with some hopes that Liu Bei would not want to enter the muddy Xuzhou.

After all, things are against others, but it is undeniable.

The moment he saw Cao Hong and guessed that Liu Bei was coming to Xuzhou, his mood was no different from that of Zheng Xuan.

It seems that there is no need to say more about everything, and it seems that he is relieved when the dust has settled. Zhong Ping knows that he has found a wise master who is willing to assist.

He wasn't sure whether the moment his heart moved would be caught by Cao Cao from his words and deeds.

Zhong Ping still has a certain degree of control over the changes in his expression, but when he thinks that he is facing Cao Cao, he will still have a lot of hesitation in his heart.

What's more... the other party was too quiet, and it was almost like asking him to turn against the customer.

"Fuck, I didn't know that Bo Heng would have such a speculative agreement with Mr. Liu Fu."

Cao Cao drank the wine in his glass, seemingly casually sighing.

Zhong Ping silently took a sip of the wine, wondering if it was due to unfermented wine, this wine was far inferior to Xi Zhicai's homemade good wine, with a hint of sour and bitter taste.

"If Zhicai finds out, I'm afraid there will be a lot of dissatisfaction, what does Boheng think?"

Cao Cao teased Xi Zhicai who was far away in Xudu, but his eyes shifted to the map of Xuzhou nailed on the wall behind his back.

"Zhicai should have no time to take care of such insignificant things."

Looking up in a calm voice, he also noticed the map.

With Cao Cao's current state of power, Xuzhou is already in his hands and can be enjoyed at will.

Liu Bei wanted to speak subconsciously. Before getting up, he tilted his head to look at Zhong Ping, then relaxed his muscles, and changed to drink by himself.

Zhong Ping then stood up and told Cao Cao word by word: "Mr. Cao, Lu Bu joined forces with Zhang Miao and Chen Gong to rebel. Yanzhou is in danger. I hope Mr. Cao will make a decision soon."

The camp fell into a deathly silence for a moment.

Obviously, this news is a blockbuster to everyone present.

Rao Cao Cao, the first reaction when he heard this was to wonder if this was a lie made up by Zhong Ping to make him retreat.

Zhang Miao!Chen Gong!
These two names were so important to Cao Cao that he subconsciously wanted to excuse them.

The complex emotions of disbelief, anger, suspicion, and resentment only briefly appeared in Cao Cao's eyes, and passed by in a flash.

He "calmed down" quickly, leaning on the desk, and lowered his voice: "...when?"

Zhong Ping was a little at a loss by Cao Cao's reaction, he thought that Cao Cao would definitely question him...

Believe him so easily?

Zhong Ping didn't know whether it was because Cao Cao still maintained his previous trust in him, or the situation had changed, and Cao Cao was now mentally prepared for Zhang Miao and Chen Gong's rebellion?
"It's supposed to be... Mr. Cao entered Xuzhou not long ago."

After Zhong Ping finished speaking, he was taken aback for a moment.

He realized that when Cao Cao asked this question, others would probably think he was asking when Zhang Miao and other rebels attacked Yanzhou.

But he replied that it was the time when Zhang Miao and Chen Gong colluded with Lu Bu.

Zhong Ping met Cao Cao's eyes.
