Seeing Xi Zhicai, Lu Yan didn't know what to say to express himself,

So he changed the topic with a smile and resolved the embarrassment for Xi Zhicai.

"Zhicai, do you know that there is a good news today?"

"Oh? I don't know." With a new topic, the awkward atmosphere naturally disappeared.

Lu Yan went on to say: "Duke Cao defeated the Yellow Turban Pioneer in the first battle after entering Dongjun. After that, Wang Gong, the governor of Dongjun, cared about the people and was grateful for Cao Gong's kindness, so he gave up the post of governor of Dongjun to Cao Gong."

Xi Zhicai had only heard that Cao Cao had entered Dongjun, but he did not expect that the first battle would go so smoothly, and he would even win the position of prefect.

When it comes to things you are good at,

Xi Zhi's embarrassment just now completely disappeared.

"Grand Duke Cao is mighty and mighty, not only frustrated the yellow scarf but also won the position of governor of Dongjun.

However, the position of prefect was only granted privately and was not recognized by the court.

So Zhong still suggested that Cao Gong can seek Yuan Shao's support and let him go to the court to represent Cao Gong as the prefect of Dongjun! "

Lu Yan laughed when he heard this, and said, "Zhicai is really thoughtful! But you still have something to say, don't you?"

Xi Zhicai also smiled slightly and said, "I still can't escape your eyes of Lu Changsheng..."

Xia Houlan, who was sitting next to the two of them, looked back and forth between Lu Yan and Xi Zhicai, and said in her heart: "You two are carrying the sedan chair smoothly..."

Xi Zhicai sorted out his words a bit, and then said to Lu Yan: "I heard some news from the people who went south on the road.

Yuan Shao obtained Jizhou by clever tricks, but he offended Gongsun Zan completely.

Gongsun Zan had just flattened the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou and Xuerzhous.

Yuan Shao lied to him to fight Jizhou together, but in the end he broke his promise and became fat.

With Gongsun Zan's temperament, it is naturally impossible to swallow this bad breath..."

Seeing Xi Zhicai's words, Lu Yan looked at himself only halfway through. He knew that it was Xi Zhicai who wanted to test himself.

"Hehe, anyway, I am also a character in the novels of the Three Kingdoms Expo, so how could such a thing be difficult for me?"

Lu Yan took Xi Zhicai's words and said:

"Yuan Shao newly acquired Jizhou, but his foundation is still shallow.

Once Gongsun Zan raises troops to attack,

There must be many people in Jizhou who will abandon Yuan Shao and join Gongsun Zan. In addition, Gongsun Zan's army is flourishing and powerful, so Yuan Shao must suffer a lot first.

Moreover, the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu both have the ambition to rule the roost,

The two of them seem to be in harmony on the surface, but secretly they may be thinking about how to kill each other and annex the other's power.

Yuan Shao is threatened by Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shu outside, and there are big and small gentry in Jizhou who are always waiting to betray him.

Under such internal and external troubles, Yuan Shao's life is actually very difficult..."

Lu Yan also stopped here.

But Xi Zhicai no longer has any doubts about Lu Yan's ability at this moment,

He accepted Lu Yan's words with a smile,

Said the common thoughts of the two of them,

"Yuan Shao urgently needs someone to help him stabilize one side,

Therefore, if Cao Gong expresses his wish at this time, he hopes that Yuan Shao will recommend him to be the prefect of Dongjun,

This is equivalent to Cao Gong telling Yuan Shao that Cao Gong is showing his favor to him. "

"Yuan Shao has many resourceful people under his command. They will definitely persuade Yuan Shao to agree to Duke Cao's request and take advantage of the opportunity to form an alliance with Duke Cao!"

"Cao Yuan's alliance is a good thing that benefits both sides.

Yuan Shao has gone to most of the threats in the south,

And Cao Gong not only lost the worries of the north, but also got a lot of help from Yuan Shao..."

Lu Yan, Xi Zhicai, you and I have made clear Cao Cao's next plan,

Xi Zhicai has only experienced this kind of joyful feeling that his thoughts can be quickly understood by others.

One is my good friend Xun Yu,

The other is my friend Guo Jia!

Guo Jia is a prodigal son by nature, afraid of trouble,

In addition, Cao Cao's reputation was still too low at that time, so Guo Jia ran to Yuan Shao.

But after discovering that Yuan Shao was not as wise as the rumors said, but rather stretched his hips,

Guo Jia simply started to live a leisurely life of going to work, clocking in, and fishing.

Xi Zhicai may have a premonition about his body,

So he has been working hard to find a lord worthy of his assistance,

I hope that I can fulfill my ambitions in my lifetime.

Therefore, when Cao Cao appeared in front of the world, when Xi Zhicai saw Cao Cao's order to seek talents,

He finally made up his mind and set off decisively to Chenliu, ready to join Cao Cao.

However, when Xizhi came, it happened to be the time when Cao Cao set out to conquer Dongjun.

In addition, Xi Zhicai did not want to lower his figure and say that he came here because of an order to seek talents,

After staying in Chenliu for a few days,

He finally spent all the money he had on him...

People still have to eat...

That's why there was the scene where Lu Yan and Xia Houlan found the down-and-out scholar playing Zhicai outside the tavern.

Chapter 18 The Sublimation of Cao Cao's Soul

Sitting in his room in Puyang City, the seat of the Eastern Commandery, Cao Cao skillfully and naturally took out the Diary of Heaven and Destiny from his arms.

look at the diary,

Now it has become Cao Cao's unshakable daily life,

During the time he left Chenliu and came to Dongjun, even during the few days of fighting against the Yellow Turban, he still didn't leave a daily diary.

Cao Cao felt annoyed and amused by Lu Yan's "complaint" about the daily heavy work in his diary,

Others are eager to do more things to show their abilities to the boss, and then get promoted to the pinnacle of life.

Lu Yan is fine.

Why [-] is not a blessing but exploitation,

Boss Cao is inhumane, squeezing the surplus value of employees, etc.

Although Cao Cao can't understand many words,

But he doesn't need to guess.

Lu Yan must be complaining about the important task he entrusted to him...

However, the content of today's diary is a little different,

The first sentence at the beginning of it was not a complaint, but a sentence [I found a treasure when I went out today! 】

This sentence aroused Cao Cao's curiosity,

"There is still an existence that can be called a 'baby' by the Great Immortal Lu?"

With this kind of ridicule and curiosity, Cao Cao began to look down carefully.

The content of the next diary is actually a person's profile,

[Xi Zhong, courtesy name Zhicai, is from Yingchuan County.

Since there are very few records about him, I only know that he was one of the most important advisers of Boss Cao in the early days. 】

"One of the most important counselors I was destined to be???"

Seeing this, Cao Cao couldn't help stretching his neck and widening his eyes, wanting to take a closer look.

[When I got off work today, I met Xi Zhicai outside the tavern,

This is like going out and picking up a golden mountain!

But that brother looks like a down-and-out scribe, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable...]

Cao Cao asked suspiciously, "Meet me outside the tavern? A down-and-out scribe? A bastard from a poor family?"

[The ability of drama ambitions, although there is nothing touted by later generations, the strategy is better than Guo Jia, the strategy is better than Xun Yu and Zhuge's monsters,

But he is undoubtedly one of the top strategists in the world. 】

"War... strategy... surpass Xun Yu???" Cao Cao's expression was stiff at the moment.

"Damn it! Except for Lu Yan, the prophet cheater,

Is there anyone else who can surpass Xun Yu in terms of strategy?

How can this be? ! "Cao Cao felt that Lu Yan was bragging again...

"Also, who are Guo Jia and Zhuge?

But Mr. Lu, you are really,

Now that we know that there are great talents like them, why can't we disclose more information about them in the diary? "Cao Cao sighed with regret.

[Xi Zhicai was supposed to be recommended by Xun Yu to Boss Cao, but now he came to Chenliu because of an order to seek talents...

I don't know what these small changes portend,

But I still have to be careful,

If you accidentally play it off, it will be difficult to clean up if something messes up...]

"Xu Zhicai was supposed to be recommended to me by Xun Yu? But now he came to Chenliu because of an order to seek talents?"

Cao Cao frowned, thinking about the information revealed by this sentence.

"Then, Mr. Lu's meaning here should be to say that history has changed, right?

It was supposed to be a talent recommended to me by Wen Ruo, but I went to Chenliu ahead of time, and was 'picked up' by Mr. Lu...."

Cao Cao knew what a change in history would mean,

Change can be good change,

But most of them should be unpredictable and bad situations.

"History has changed...how will that affect me?"

Cao Cao naturally wanted to know his future, and often fell into worries about his future situation.

And today,

After seeing Lu Yan say that history has changed,

Cao Cao's trembling state of mind suddenly changed.

that change,

It was as if there was a thin film blocking in front of me,

At this moment, it was as if I accidentally pierced it!

As the membrane was pierced, Cao Cao felt as if he had realized something!

"history,

It's just another 'me' done in another time, a trajectory traveled.

Although I, Cao Mengde, am in awe of history, I should not be in awe of history.

I believe that with my hands, with my unwavering determination,
