Three Kingdoms: I rely on system loopholes to survive

Chapter 161
"Boheng met Hao Meng's soldiers, near Tu County?"

Cao Cao held a horsewhip in his hand, pointing at the faintly outlined county town.

The horse under him is snow-white in fur, with a fluttering mane, four hooves inlaid with a circle of yellow, and its steps are vigorous and vigorous.

"Exactly."

Zhongping turned his head and noticed that apart from the red rabbit, there was no abnormal horse in front of him, so he couldn't help but take a closer look.

The horse's eyes were sharp and its eyes shone brightly. On its neck stood a clump of tall mane, like a banner in the army, standing proudly on the ground.

The chest and abdomen are broad, the muscles are solid, and every step brings a heavy and powerful tapping sound, just like the sound of drums.

Cao Cao held the whip in his hand, and gently stroked the neck of the steed. The horse responded instantly, and the strong body trembled slightly with its bones.

"Mr. Cao's horse is extraordinary."

Zhong Ping praised with a smile, approaching Xudu, Yanzhou is still calm and calm, thinking about the recent situation of his relatives and friends, he feels more relaxed.

"Hahaha, the name of this horse is 'Yellow Claw Feidian', which means that its yellow hooves are fast, and it gallops like lightning."

Cao Cao was also extremely satisfied with the fine horse under him. He stroked his beard, narrowed his eyes slightly, and while patting the horse's neck, he also took a few more glances at the flat horse.

"...The horse that Bo Heng rides is a rare one. I have also obtained many good horses, but I have never seen a horse with such a majestic appearance."

He has also been curious about the horse that Zhongping rides for a long time. After all, such a horse with extraordinary appearance, hair like dragon scales, and galloping like clouds should not be an unknown horse.

It's just that Zhong Ping seems to love this horse very much. Whenever he travels for a ride, he only makes this choice. Even if he is free, Zhong Ping often goes to the stable to accompany this horse, and rarely gives others the opportunity to get in touch with it.

Therefore, although Cao Cao wanted to inquire several times, he couldn't find a good time.

Today it is rare that Zhong Ping is not accompanying in the army, and he takes the initiative to ride with him. Naturally, Cao Cao is also happy to use the name of praising Huang Feidian, his paw, to ask about Zhong Ping's horse.

The horse's eyes are like lightning, its sharpness is menacing, and it is invincible.

Cao Cao once heard that the sergeant who followed Zhongping to Chang'an praised the horse when it galloped wildly, and the shadow of the horse flew like a lightning bolt.

Although I have never seen the appearance of this horse galloping with my own eyes, just listening to this description, combined with the strong muscles of the horse in front of me, makes people fascinated.

Zhong Ping was a little embarrassed.

He can't tell Cao Cao that this is the red rabbit horse he prostituted from Lv Bu for nothing...

Since Zhong Ping rode a Chitu horse into Dongjun, he knew in his heart that Chitu was a hot potato for him.

After all, if one day I really run into Lu Bu, the two of them will meet each other on the battlefield:
Hey, your horse is fine, now it's mine.

Surprise, not unexpected?
Somewhat, a subtle, face-to-face ntr feeling...

Zhong Ping also thought about giving away Chitu, but when it came to him, most horses would feel a little bit guilty when they met him, so he could only rely on him to show his subjective initiative and give him a shake from time to time on the road. Can't live.

Both, given his conditions, he really couldn't find a better horse than the Chitu, especially the last few runs he made were all carried by the Chitu horse, and ordinary horses really couldn't stand that intensity.

For example, when he ran back to Xuzhou first and then rushed to Yanzhou, even if it was a Chitu horse, he couldn't stop all the way. Zhongping was forced to change a horse halfway, so that Chitu could rest.

However, after changing horses that time, causing the opponent to die directly from exhaustion, or maybe after falling to his death at the gate of Xudu City, Zhongping seemed to have gained some debuff.

Even if they were forced to ride, ordinary horses would crazily resist, completely eliminating the possibility of him sending Chitu away.

"This horse..."

Zhong Ping didn't know how to tell the truth for a while, so he still tried to make up an excuse.

"To tell you the truth, Mr. Cao, this is Lu Bu's horse, Chitu."

After thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was better not to lie to Cao Cao.

"...Is this the red rabbit?"

A trace of extremely complicated emotions briefly flashed across Cao Cao's face.

"yes……"

Zhong Ping looked away, lowered his eyes guiltyly, and silently rubbed the short and thorny mane on Chitu's neck.

There is no way, because of the limited height, as long as Zhong Ping runs wildly on the red rabbit, his face will be blurred by its flying and flowing mane, which will affect the sight too much...

It has to be said that the red rabbit whose mane has been cut short by most of it by Zhongping looks quite different from its former image.

That is to say, Chitu's appearance is indeed high enough, otherwise...

After entering Tu County, the two were relieved from the weird silence of looking at each other.

Although Zhong Ping had fought Hao Meng around Tu County before, he had never entered the county town, so Zhong Ping was still unfamiliar with Tu County.

Ever since he was in Beihai, after Kong Rong's "destruction", Zhong Ping has always kept a respectful distance from banquets and other communication.

As soon as he saw the county magistrate of Tu County standing respectfully outside to welcome Cao Cao's army all the way away, he felt something was wrong in his heart.

When the other party's words revealed the meaning of having prepared meals for each other, Zhong Ping immediately put oil on the soles of his feet, and only said that he had to deal with official documents, showing some resistance in his eyes.

Cao Cao glanced at Zhong Ping, seeing it through but not saying it. It was rare for him to see Zhong Ping deflated. He pretended to ponder and admired it a few more times. He really felt that Zhong Ping was unwilling from the bottom of his heart, so he smiled and waved and let Zhong Ping go to rest first. .

The county magistrate of Tu County saw that Cao Cao treated Zhong Ping very kindly, and Zhong Ping was young, so he speculated that Zhong Ping might be a member of Cao Cao's family, so he did not dare to neglect, so he sent the county magistrate alone to lead Zhong Ping into the side room of the biography .

Zhong Ping thought about the news from Cao Hong all the way, saying that he had passed Mount Tai, but he encountered some bandits on the way, but Lu Bu seemed to have completely disappeared in Yanzhou, and no news came out.

The letter sent to Xuzhou has not yet been answered, and Zhong Ping does not think it is different considering the journey, but if there is no news when he arrives in Xuzhou, he will have to trouble Cao Cao to come forward.

Zhong Ping tried his best to think about it. His social circle is not big, and it can't be considered small, but with Zang Hong in Qingzhou, the intersection is really not that much.

If there is still no reply tomorrow, then Mr. Kang Cheng will be the only one to bother...

Hey, that’s not right, now the emperor’s uncle seems to be Ping Yuan’s order, not Ping Yuan’s prime minister, so why do I have to write to Zang Hong?
Zhong Ping patted his head, feeling that he was so stupid and confused that he had been on the edge of a corner for so long.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, it is better not to bother Mr. Kang Cheng, it is better to ask who the current Prime Minister Ping Yuan is before making any plans.

Zhong Ping thought to himself, even though Zang Hong had broken the siege of the Yellow Turbans, these days would definitely not be enough if he really wanted to exterminate the Yellow Turbans roaming around Qingzhou.

If it doesn't work, he can also use Guan Hai's "connections" to send a letter to Qingzhou to explain the situation.

No matter how he is in the world, he still has a certain reputation, and he also occupies the vacant position of Jiuqing. Sending a handwritten letter, explaining the transfer of a county magistrate from the same county, is still enough.

Zhong Ping thought for a while, rolled up his sleeves and picked out the lamp grass, the flame flickered, and it became much brighter in an instant.

Originally, the county magistrate wanted to arrange some servants for him, but after thinking about it, Zhong Ping felt that he might not need it, so he waved his hand and declined.

This move confused the county magistrate a little bit, he had only seen the children of aristocratic families dislike the lack of servants, but he had never seen anyone who took the initiative not to be served by anyone.

But if it is said that Zhong Ping is from a humble family, this general demeanor is not like it. He can only guess that this is a quirk of Zhong Ping.

"It's almost Xu time, the banquet should be over, right?"

Zhong Ping muttered, put on his cloak, and prepared to go out to visit Liu Bei.

"Tuk Tuk."

There was a knock on the door, the sound was not loud, it seemed that the knocker deliberately restrained himself.

"Who?"

Chong said calmly: Could it be that the emperor came to see me first?
He picked up the small candlestick on the table, turned around and opened the door.

As soon as he opened the door, a gust of cold wind came into his arms, and Zhong Ping sniffled involuntarily. He thought it was past eight o'clock in the evening, and the outside should be pitch black.

I really stood at the door, but I saw under the dark sky, there were many stars, and the stars were hanging down, shining and crystal clear.Although there is no moonlight, the stars are bright enough to see the outline of everything in the world.

"...Lang Jun, do you see?"

The person who knocked on the door at night was not Liu Bei as Zhongping thought, but a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old.

Her hair is like a cloud, combed into cicada wings, tied with only a red cloth.The tips of the eyebrows are green, like willow leaves whirling, and there is a touch of dark color hidden in the thin curves, and the eyes are crystal clear and shimmering.

The girl held the lamp in her hand, revealing a section of her wrist, which was as full as suet jade.

Standing beside her was the county magistrate who led the way for Zhongping.

Zhong Ping made a decisive decision, pulled the county magistrate into the room, and then closed the door with a "snap".

"I don't need a maid either!"

He glared at Xian Cheng, feeling his head was getting bigger.

The county magistrate smiled obsequiously, and his heart was full of puzzlement. How could such a beauty look down on this young man?
Could it be that General Cao's family tradition is in the same line, and they are all good mistresses?

He glanced at Zhong Ping's small body strangely, and something strange appeared in his mind.

Zhong Ping was stared at for a while with chills, and now he has come back to it. He took two steps angrily, and was annoyed for the first time. He used an orderly tone and said every word: "Send this girl back to her place." I don't need it in my parents' house!"

"No, no."

The county magistrate wiped the sweat from his forehead, he felt a little guilty when he heard that Zhong Ping wanted him to send him home, and he couldn't help showing a little panic in his behavior.

He glanced at Zhongping's expression slightly again, confirming that Zhongping didn't seem to know anything, he relaxed for a while, saluted again and again, and led the girl back out.

Zhong Ping sat alone for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.

He stood up and thought about it for a while, and felt that he still needed to send someone to confirm whether the county magistrate really followed his words and sent the girl back home.

Just as Zhong Ping pressed his hand on the door, there was another knock on the door.

He said in his heart that tonight is really lively, and they all get together and run to him, right?

Zhongping didn't ask any more questions, and directly opened the door.

Outside the door is still the familiar flattering smile of the county magistrate, but the one beside him is no longer a beautiful girl, but...a beautiful boy.

Zhong Ping laughed angrily, looked at the county magistrate, and was speechless for a long time.

However, the county magistrate misunderstood what Zhong Ping meant, thinking that at this moment, he was finally following his own preferences and flattering him.

He smiled and pushed the young boy towards Zhongping, and before Zhongping was about to curse, he took out a piece of jade wall from his bosom, which was very valuable at first sight.

Zhongping fell silent.

After being an official for so long, this was the first time he encountered someone offering bribes.

"I hope Lang Jun will accept it with a smile."

Seeing that Zhong Ping hadn't moved, the county magistrate boldly took two steps inside the door, and respectfully placed the jade wall on the wooden table in the house.

Zhong Ping wanted to scold subconsciously, but after thinking about it, he changed his mind.

"Well, I see, you go down, don't bother me again."

The county magistrate showed a "I understand, I understand", a self-righteous and tacit smile.

Zhong Ping waited for his figure to disappear before taking the young boy into the room.

He lingered on the jade wall for a moment, then turned his head and looked cold.

"Put on your clothes, tell me clearly about your origins, otherwise, I can't guarantee whether you can walk out here in good condition tomorrow."
