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

"This man deserves to be killed."

Chen Qun said speechlessly.

"Oh?"

"Why?"

Liu Bei asked with some suspicion.

"Sir, Cao Cao and Xuzhou have an irreconcilable feud."

"Last year, Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, and not a blade of grass grew in the cities he passed through."

"If you go to support Cao Cao now, won't that make you an enemy of Xuzhou?"

Chen Qun exposed the trap set by Xi Zhicai in one sentence.

"what!"

“To think it would be like this!”

"What should I do?"

When everyone heard this, they exclaimed in surprise.

"Your Excellency, you cannot go. You absolutely cannot go."

"Once the envoy leaves, all your efforts in Xuzhou will be in vain."

Chen Qun bowed and began to give advice.

"But if I don't go, Cao Cao will declare me ungrateful."

Liu Bei explained with a bitter face.

He doesn't really want to go.

There is no other way.

The general is in checkmate, what can Liu Bei do?

Although Liu Bei had certain strategies, he was still a little behind the top strategists.

"The only thing Cao Cao can use is the letter of retreat that the envoy gave him."

"If Cao Cao spreads this, you can declare Cao Cao the archenemy of Xuzhou. Although this will damage your reputation, your prestige in Xuzhou will also be increased."

Chen Qun's eyes turned, and after a little thought, he gave Liu Bei a solution.

"Wonderful, wonderful."

"It's just my little bit of personal reputation. I'll take the loss as long as I don't disappoint the people of Xuzhou."

The sadness on Liu Bei's face suddenly disappeared, and he immediately said with a smile.

"..."

"Ming Gong truly has the spirit of Emperor Taizu Gao."

The corner of Chen Qun's eye twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but bow and praise.

too dark.

It's so fucking thick-skinned.

He spoke so righteously, worthy of being a member of the Liu family.

"Changwen, please don't address me as Ming Gong from now on. It's too formal."

Sensing Chen Qun's talent, Liu Bei wanted to recruit him.

"I am the deputy governor of Yuzhou, and you are the governor of Yuzhou. I shall serve you."

Hearing this, Chen Qun bowed and replied with a smile.

"Haha... this time it's all thanks to Changwen's plan."

"How about we sleep side by side tonight?"

Having been cruelly rejected, Liu Bei had no choice but to use his best skills.

"This...is not appropriate. I have many government affairs to attend to, so I will go and handle them for you first."

Chen Qun couldn't help but shiver and quickly left with an excuse.

"What a pity, such a talented person."

Liu Bei sighed and looked at Chen Qun leaving helplessly.

"Brother, take your time."

"Anyway, he is your subordinate now."

Guan Yu looked at Liu Bei and comforted him.

As a man who is good at networking, Chen Qun naturally knew Liu Bei's intention to recruit him.

But people like Chen Qun are destined not to make a decision easily.

What does it have to do with him no matter how the world fights?

With the entire Chen family behind him, he could only try his best to exercise due caution.

He didn't dare to bear the cost of entering the game.

The slightest carelessness will lead to the decline of the family.

Instead of doing this, it is better to continue doing your job well.

He will serve whoever controls Yuzhou.

It is impossible to recognize the Lord!

Perhaps, this is also his pride.

To acknowledge one's master means to become someone else's retainer.

But as a subordinate official, he is still an official of the whole country, not a minister of a single family.

No matter who is in charge of Yuzhou in the future, he can continue like this.

This was the case with Dong Yu back then, and it is also the case with Liu Bei now.

What's more, Liu Bei's current achievements are not as good as Dong Yu's.

Since Yanzhou entered the spring plowing season, Lu Bu's 5,000 cavalrymen have come into play.

Although only two thousand of these five thousand cavalry are elite, the rest are newly trained cavalry.

But it can't withstand the huge scale.

With five thousand cavalrymen galloping, not to mention an army of ten thousand, even an army of twenty thousand would have to flee in panic.

After all, Lu Bu would not tell his opponent that more than 3,000 of my cavalry are new recruits, right?

Although Lu Bu is unwilling to use his brain, he is not stupid.

It can be said that Lu Bu's 5,000 cavalry alone turned Cao Cao's Yanzhou upside down.

In just half a month, more than 5,000 corvée laborers and garrison soldiers were killed or injured.
