System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

Liu Bei bowed, showing his strength while tying himself to Tao Qian's side.

This touched Tao Qian's heart.

After all, when Liu Bei said this, it was obviously for Tao Qian's sake.

"Well, in that case, let's follow Xuande's advice and join forces with Yuan Shu to fight Cao Cao together."

Tao Qian sighed and nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Tao Qian really adopted his suggestion, Liu Bei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Steady!

I finally have the chance to own a place of my own.

Although he had previously served as an official at the level of Pingyuan Xiang, a county governor, Liu Bei was always under pressure from above.

If it is consistent with his own ideas, he might be happier.

However, Gongsun Zan was not someone who could support the Han Dynasty, so Liu Bei naturally did not want to follow him.

So when Tao Qian asked for help, Liu Bei came without hesitation.

However, man proposes, God disposes.

Even though Brother Liu had a good plan, he was still unlucky.

Yanzhou·Chenliu

Chen Gong, Bian Rang, Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao, Xu Si, Wang Kai and other local nobles and officials of Yanzhou gathered together.

"Everyone, what do you say?"

Zhang Miao looked at everyone and tapped his fingers on the table.

"Everyone, don't you think Cao Cao is getting a little carried away?"

Zhang Chao looked around and asked everyone.

"Cao Cao has indeed gone too far."

"Back then, we worshipped him as our lord and let him rule Yanzhou. We believed he was a powerful ruler with great ambitions."

"Now it seems that I was a little shortsighted back then."

Chen Gong nodded with a complicated expression and spoke in a low voice.

"Chen Gongtai, we're all family. There's no need to be so pompous. Doesn't it make you sick to your stomach?"

Zhang Chao smacked his lips and rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction.

"Cough cough."

Chen Gong coughed twice awkwardly.

"All right."

"Everyone is understanding."

"Although Cao Cao lost that battle, he also won."

"Yanzhou was already crowded with people from Qiao County, and now a group of people from Nanyang and Yingchuan have arrived."

"I think Cao Mengde has forgotten how he came to Yanzhou."

Zhang Miao said with a sullen face and some annoyance.

If Yuan Shao's internal conflict was the uneven distribution of interests between Jizhou, Yingchuan and Nanyang, then Cao Cao's side was too chaotic.

Originally, there were only two factions in Yanzhou sharing the cake.

The local nobles and powerful people in Yanzhou could still tolerate it. After all, Cao Cao himself was from Qiao County. If one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit. This is not uncommon.

But what about Yingchuan and Nanyang?

Come and share the cake with us?

Yanzhou is such a small place. If all of it is divided up, what will happen to Yanzhou’s interests?

Originally, Bian Rang was the fuse in history, but now, even if Cao Cao did not kill Bian Rang and his group of celebrities in order to maintain a delicate balance, the internal conflicts in Yanzhou would be difficult to balance.

In general, the same thing applies.

Cao Cao's talents developed too quickly, but his territory was not evenly distributed.

Although Dong Yu also has various factions, there are enough interests to distribute.

"I have no opinion."

"But the problem now is that it might be difficult for us to accomplish anything just by ourselves."

Xu Si said with a gloomy face and a worried look on his face.

"That's true."

Zhang Miao stroked his beard, frowned and nodded.

"Liu Biao, Yuan Shu, and... the thief Dong?"

"Apart from them, I can't think of anyone else who could have such ambition."

Wang Kai looked at everyone and muttered a few names.

The people of Yanzhou just hope to find someone who will not take a share of their cake.

If we divide it up, they can accept a smaller amount.

But they could not accept Cao Cao's blood-sucking exploitative method.

At least everyone here has more experience than Cao Cao.

When they were prefects, Cao Cao was still serving as a younger brother of Yuan Shao.

Now they are shitting on their heads. In a few years, won’t they be eliminated by Cao Cao?

"The high official from Chenliu is Yuan Shao's nephew."

"There was a man named Gao Shun from the Chenliu Gao family who served under Dong Yu."

"Chenliu leads to Jizhou, just across a river, and the journey takes only a few days."

"Why don't we send someone to Jizhou to test the waters?"

"Isn't it beautiful?"

Bian Rang looked at everyone and expressed his thoughts.

"Beautiful."

"Dong the thief...Dong Yu, the son of Zhuo, has now taken over Jizhou. His power is growing ever larger. Sooner or later, he will want to march south to the Central Plains."

"If we offer our loyalty now, perhaps we can establish ourselves."

Zhang Miao's eyes lit up and he nodded immediately.

Although they had fought against the thief Dong before, there is no absolute enemy in the world.

When there is benefit, they gather; when there is no benefit, they disperse.

If the Dong family doesn't even have this much magnanimity, how can they talk about conquering the world?

"Since everyone agrees, I'll take the trip."

Seeing that everyone nodded in agreement, Chen Gong volunteered.

"If the public official goes there, this matter will be accomplished."

"Excellent!"

Zhang Miao, Bian Rang, Zhang Chao and others nodded happily.

"Okay, everyone, just wait here for my good news."

Chen Gong stood up, bowed, and then left quickly.
