If we say that the largest and most glorious mansion in Jizhou City in the north is the residence of Cao Cao, the prime minister of the Han Empire and the superintendent of the four states in the north.om
Cao Cao's mansion covers an area of nearly 10,000 acres. It was built after annexing several noble houses in Jizhou City and most of the palace of "Emperor Bo". Both the interior and appearance are in no way inferior to those of the former imperial capital of the Han Dynasty.
The Imperial Palace of the Han Dynasty in Luoyang. Compared with the palace of "Emperor Bo", it is undoubtedly truly dwarfed.
Although compared to the increasingly chaotic south, Jizhou City is relatively calm. However, there are still many soldiers outside the entire mansion, and these guards are all elite soldiers selected from a hundred. Even inside the mansion, there are people like Dian Wei.
The powerful generals led 20,000 personal guards to take charge of the defense. Not to mention ordinary people, even those who turned into fighting spirit beasts or even stronger ones would probably never come back.
In an extremely quiet courtyard of the mansion, two men dressed as scribes were playing a leisurely game with each other under a tree. From time to time, a huge mouse crouched under the shade of the tree and slept soundly.
, making a "squeaking" sound as if talking in a dream.
"Mr. Jia, the world is in chaos now, and the lord's army will start a war with the Hanzhong Yellow Turbans at any time. Aren't you worried at all?" The gray-clothed scribe on the right paused slightly and said calmly as if nothing had happened.
.
"Oh? Then what does Mr. Sima think I should do?" Jia Xu, dressed in black robe, smiled faintly and asked in return.
"Haha, does Mr. Jia really not care about the war in the Central Plains at all? After all, the Yellow Turban King Ming is your old master..." Sima Yi chuckled meaningfully.
Jia Xu didn't seem to hear what Sima Yi was saying, so he took out one of his pieces, pondered for a moment and then put it down. Then he slowly said: "Speaking of which, I have a question to ask Mr. Sima."
"Mr. Jia just said it doesn't matter."
"I wonder if Mr. Sima knows why you and I, who are both military advisors under the lord's command, don't let us go out to fight during this war, but invite us to this mansion at any time?"
"Haha, this is just a coincidence. I think that Military Advisors Xun Yu and Cheng Yu are both outstanding and talented men with great wits. The lord asked them to supervise the army on the expedition. Naturally, no one had any objections. As for the
You and me...hehe, I'll take these pieces first..." Sima Yi stopped talking midway through his words, just dropped another piece, and then took away a few of Jia Xu's pieces on the chessboard.
Jia Xu smiled silently and picked up another one. He said: "As for you and me, you are from the Jizhou clan, and I am Xianyun Yehe. Although there seems to be no difference, there is one thing in common, that is, you and me
They are all just surrendered generals... Haha. Although Brother Sima has captured a few of my chess pieces, I'm afraid he will lose the game..."
When Sima Yi saw Jia Xu's chess piece falling, it happened to be at a very critical point. His expression changed slightly, and then he smiled and said, "Brother Jia, does he think that the master is still suspicious of us?"
Jia Xu smiled slightly and said calmly: "That's not what I said... Brother Sima, as a human minister, how can you guess the lord's thoughts at will?"
Seeing that Jia Xu's soup was not getting enough, Sima Yi couldn't help but said slightly anxiously: "Brother Jia..."
"Oh? You two are so excited. I didn't expect that when the world is approaching a catastrophe, these two experts are still in the mood to play chess and riddles here. I admire you..."
Suddenly, a breeze seemed to blow through the courtyard, and the sunlight in the sky dimmed slightly, as if a dark cloud had passed by. In an instant, the entire courtyard fell into a huge shadow.
"Zhizhi!" Xiaodu, who had been sleeping soundly just now, suddenly woke up. After a cry, he suddenly jumped up from the ground as if he sensed some danger, and rushed towards a shadow in the corner of the courtyard like lightning.
"Xiao Du, come back!" Jia Xu couldn't help but feel moved when he saw Xiao Du rushing out.
But Jia Xu's voice was slightly slower than half a beat, and only a slight crisp sound like a branch breaking was heard from the shadow. After the tiny lightning flashed, a wind-like air flow enveloped Xiao Du's leaping figure in mid-air.
.Directly roll Xiaodu’s entire body back.
"Zhizhi..." Xiaodu turned over dexterously in the air, and the force of the strong wind fell on Jia Xu's shoulder. While chirping like a low growl, he looked at the shadows vigilantly.
At this time, Sima Yi couldn't help but feel a sudden movement in his heart after feeling the power. He looked towards the shadow with flickering eyes and said lightly: "I wonder which friend has arrived? Do you think that since you are the holder of the Heavenly Scroll, you can regard this as something like this?"
Is the huge city of Jizhou as if it were nothing?!"
Heavenly Scroll?! After Sima Yi's words came out, Jia Xu couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. While gently comforting Xiao Du on his shoulder, who was facing a powerful enemy, he murmured: "Brother Sima, this Heavenly Scroll you are talking about is Dunjia."
Heavenly Book?!"
Without waiting for Sima Yi to answer, a chuckle suddenly sounded in the shadow: "Haha, you are indeed a Jizhou scholar. I, Zhuge Kongming, have met Mr. Sima and Mr. Jia..."
As he spoke, a tall, tall and handsome young man slowly walked out of the shadows. With a flick of the feather fan in his hand, the dark clouds that blocked the sun in the sky instantly dispersed, and the sunlight began to scatter in the courtyard again.
"Zhuge Kongming?! Are you Mr. Wolong?!" Sima Yi and Jia Xu looked at each other, and the former said in surprise.
It's no wonder that the two of them were so surprised. They could easily come in and out under the guard of tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and treat the tens of thousands of elite soldiers as if they were nothing. Even the two people present were probably extremely difficult to do this, but seeing Zhuge Liang's calm appearance, it was obviously extremely easy.
. Could it be that the Heavenly Scroll of Dunjia Heavenly Book is so powerful? Or maybe Zhuge Liang’s cultivation level has reached an extremely terrifying level?!
When the two were surprised, Zhuge Liang had already walked up to them with a feather fan. He smiled at the two and the mouse, and sat down unceremoniously beside the stone table. While looking at the chessboard on the table, he smiled lightly and said
: "Wolong is just a nickname given to me by some friends when they have nothing to do. I don't dare to call myself a dragon. But looking at the chess game...it seems that Mr. Sima is in some danger."
Sima Yi had regained his composure at this time and said with a smile: "Don't Mr. Zhuge know that what I am best at is winning from defeat?"
Zhuge Liang couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said: "You two have superb chess skills, and I admire them very much. But if this is the case, I don't know how you can win this game..."
As he spoke, the feather fan in Zhuge Liang's hand suddenly moved slightly, and a strong wind blew violently in the courtyard. This strong wind was as powerful as the strong wind that had just swept Xiao Po out.
"Hoo!" The wind roared with great swiftness, coupled with Zhuge Liang's sudden attack, Jia Xu and Sima Yi were caught off guard. The chess pieces on the stone table "clattered" and were quickly swept up like fallen leaves in the wind.
In a moment, they were scattered throughout the courtyard.
Sima Yi was startled, and suddenly an angry look appeared on his face: "What do you mean?"
Jia Xu was much calmer. After the strong wind dissipated, Jia Xu laughed, calmly grabbed a few chess pieces and put them on the chessboard without thinking. In the eyes of Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, Jia Xu
Xu's hands were like lightning, and in just a moment, half of the chessboard was covered. Looking at the movement of the chess pieces, it turned out to be exactly the same as the endgame the two of them had just played.
When Sima Yi saw that Jia Xu had shown this trick, he couldn't help but turn from anger to joy. He cast a sidelong glance at Zhuge Liang and then smiled at Jia Xu: "Brother Jia has a strong memory of photographic memory. Sima Yi admires it..."
Jia Xu remained expressionless. He neither looked at Zhuge Liang nor Sima Yi. He just gently touched Xiaodu on his shoulder and said, "I had the advantage in this game. Wouldn't it be a pity if I didn't write it down carefully?"
Is it done?”
In an instant, an invisible fighting spirit enveloped the three top counselors. The three of them were all aloof and unparalleled people with their own unique skills. There was already a hidden secret between Jia Xu and Sima Yi, and now Zhuge Liang was added to the mix. Naturally,
The desire to compete with each other suddenly arises.
After this atmosphere lasted for a while, Zhuge Liang suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed. The laughter was so loud that it spread far away, and there was no restraint or scruple at all because of his figure in Cao Cao's house.
After laughing, Zhuge Liang said calmly: "Mr. Sima is good at winning from defeat, and Mr. Jia is knowledgeable and memorized. Both of them are experts in the world, and they are good at winning. But I don't understand. If someone comes to disrupt the situation deliberately,
Can this game of chess really continue according to your ideas?"
"Spoiler? If there is really someone who is spoiling the situation, just send him away. Can't we just let him spoil the situation and we won't kill people?" There was already a hint of chill in Sima Yi's voice.
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "What if this troublemaker can't be dealt with by just two of you?"
What Zhuge Liang said was extremely arrogant. Even Jia Xu, who had remained calm all this time, couldn't help but a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he snorted: "Does Mr. Zhuge think he has the strength to fight one against two?"
Zhuge Liang raised the feather fan in his hand and explained with a smile: "Mr. Jia, don't get me wrong. How could Zhuge Liang be so virtuous? How could he have such ability? But there is indeed another strong person in this world, even if it is Prime Minister Cao and
If Qin Yanggong joins forces, I'm afraid he won't be able to defeat him..."
"What?!" As soon as these words came out, Jia Xu and Sima Yi were moved at the same time. They were both smart people and knew that Zhuge Liang was definitely not here to entertain them. After the two looked at each other, they asked in unison: "
Mr. Zhuge, if you have anything to say, please say it directly..."
Seeing that Zhuge Liang had successfully attracted the attention of the two men, he couldn't help but smile slightly, cupped his hands and said: "Brothers, I am here to ask you for help. The world is about to be catastrophic. Please put the world first.
.If Prime Minister Cao and Duke Yang of Qin start a war at this time, I am afraid that no one in the world can even think of it..."
