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

After all, Cao Cao had been fighting for more than three years in a row, and his soldiers were very war-weary.

The reason why there has not been a complete rebound yet is because Cao Cao has been winning battles repeatedly during this period and the contradictions have not been fully activated.

But now the key issue is how to defeat Cao Cao.

"Is there no other solution?"

Tao Qian looked troubled and paced back and forth with a worried look.

As another old man who must die once for every time traveler, Tao Qian expressed his desire to struggle.

It is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. Who wants to die when they can live?

"This... the solution that the lord wants, is it to protect Xuzhou or to protect the lord?"

Chen Gui frowned and asked in a low voice.

"..."

Tao Qian suddenly stopped and looked at Chen Gui in a daze.

What's the difference?

Hiss, there seems to be some difference!

The world is so big, it should be easy for Tao Qian to save his life, right?

"Han Yu."

"I am already old and no longer capable of handling the military and political affairs of the state."

"In order to enable the people to live a good life..."

Tao Qian's eyes lit up, and he immediately held Chen Gui's hand and spoke earnestly.

"Wait a minute!"

Before Tao Qian finished speaking, Chen Gui had a bad feeling and quickly interrupted Tao Qian.

He doesn't want to give Xuzhou to me, does he?

That won’t work. If you give it to me, I’ll die.

I would rather die than let my friend die. You can't let me die for you just to live a cowardly life.

We're not that close yet.

You don't really believe that I'm willing to sacrifice my life for you, do you?

"Yuan...Yuan Yu, are you done with the slow pace?"

"I'll continue talking when I'm done."

Tao Qian said to Chen Gui with a smile on his face.

"My Lord, I am already old... I am truly unable to shoulder such a heavy responsibility."

"Why don't you ask..."

Chen Gui's eyes twitched slightly, and he quickly changed the topic to someone else.

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard a commotion in the hall.

Swah——

"Sir, my sow gave birth today."

"Lord, it's going to rain outside, and my clothes haven't been collected yet."

...

Several seemingly unreliable statements were heard one after another, accompanied by a series of hurried footsteps.

In the blink of an eye, Tao Qian and Chen Gui were the only ones left in the main hall of the governor's mansion.

"Hehe... Shit!"

Chen Gui was so upset that he wanted to cry, he didn't expect his colleagues to run away so quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the building was deserted.

Xuzhou has the most temples and should have more Buddhist believers, but these officials are all a group of Taoist old men.

There is no mention of who will go to hell if not me. Instead, it is that I would rather die than my friends.

“Yuan Yu, if you don’t want to answer, and they don’t want to answer either, then you can’t just let me die, right?”

"Although Xuzhou has tens of thousands of soldiers and armor, we are no match for Cao Cao."

"Yuanyu, you have to save me."

Tao Qian hugged Chen Gui's arm and said with a sad face.

When people get old, they no longer have the drive they had when they were young.

Even Tao Qian, who was very ambitious when he was young, was now like other old men who were afraid of death.

"This... none of my colleagues are willing to do this... Yes, that's right, Liu Bei."

"Sir, Liu Bei enjoys great prestige in Xuzhou, and the common people often praise his bravery and benevolence."

"It would be better to bring him here and give Xuzhou to him."

Chen Gui thought quickly and immediately thought of Liu Bei who was temporarily staying in Xiaopei.

"Liu Bei is not stupid. How could he possibly take over this mess at this time?"

Tao Qian frowned secretly and said worriedly.

"Liu Bei is kind and benevolent."

"Since he promotes the reputation of kindness, he must be burdened by kindness."

"Your Excellency could have feigned illness, spoken sincerely, and then claimed the righteousness of the world. If Liu Bei did not accept it, he would have been unkind."

Chen Gui smiled and quickly began to explain.

"Well... well, let's give it a try."

"Write to Liu Bei immediately and ask him to come to Xia Pi."

Tao Qian nodded, thinking that Chen Gui's plan was very reasonable.

Xiaopei

The governor's mansion was decorated with lights and was full of joy.

Unlike Tao Qian's sorrow, Liu Bei was in high spirits at this time.

Brother Liu is already 34 years old. Although he has had two wives, he also has a son and a daughter.
