[Three Kingdoms] After offending Wei Guoquan, I went to the peak of my life

If it was someone else, when they knew that they were sitting on a ball of ground that had just been vomited on, and they were only a short distance away from the vomit, they would be shocked no matter what.

However, Liu Bei's quality as a hero allowed him to quickly get out of the discomfort and quickly find the key information.

He asked with concern: "Your officer is speaking of the second son of the Sikong Mansion? Could it be that the second son is unwell?"

He did not focus on "sitting on the place where he vomited" like others, but grasped another important point from a short moment, and combined with Sikong Mansion's weird perception of the truth, he properly expressed his concern and further inquired After confirming the information, he turned passive into active, and made the embarrassment of his seat invisible.

With just this one sentence, Sima Yi, who was sitting upright watching the show, knew that Liu Bei was definitely not an ordinary person, and there was a bit more hidden inquiry in his eyes.

Cao Cao, who was sitting next door, was also surprised by Liu Bei's reaction—in the past, Liu Bei's impression of him was that he was gentle, benevolent, righteous, and open-minded. Although he was considered a smart person, he was not particularly outstanding in terms of overall outlook and strategy.

But the acumen and disposition shown by Liu Bei just now are very different from his previous cognition.

Liu Bei didn't know that Cao Cao was eavesdropping next door, and he didn't know that his behavior just now had aroused Cao Cao's suspicion.

He still sat in the original position, waiting for Zheng Ping to explain his doubts for him.

Zheng Ping just showed surprise: "The general doesn't know?"

Liu Bei's heart skipped a beat, and the concern on his face deepened: "Who do you mean...?"

Zheng Ping suddenly closed his mouth, took a sip of the honey water served by the maid: "The guests don't talk about the master, let's wait for Sikong to tell the general."

Just when the question was raised, when the desire to explore was the strongest, it was suddenly interrupted. Liu Bei seemed to have swallowed a water bag, and his breath was stuck in his chest, unable to get up or down.

He has always been a person who loves to think too much, he can think of many things with a thread, so he can't help but feel a little anxious when he is betrayed like this.

He would rather Zheng Ping be as reckless and rude as Mi Heng in the legend, pointing his nose and scolding him, and he doesn't want the other party to be so "kind" and "understanding" to him, politely say half and leave half, let him feel Anxiety, can not touch the source.

"It's just a newcomer, and I'm taking the liberty to pay a visit today, lest there be any offense... If you know the inside story, please give me your favor and give me some pointers."

Liu Bei said it very politely, neither humble nor overbearing, and pointed out cryptically: If Zheng Ping can reveal a thing or two, he must remember Zheng Ping's favor.

Zheng Ping said gently: "The general's words are serious, but the grace is not so much..."

Liu Bei knew there was something going on, so he was listening carefully, and then he heard Zheng Ping say the next sentence.

"It's just that I've always been stingy, so I really don't want to say much."

For a moment, Liu Bei wondered if his ears were calloused just now, and he misheard the answer.

He subconsciously looked at Zheng Ping, trying to determine whether what he said just now was his illusion based on the other party's expression, but seeing Zheng Ping drinking water one after another, he really stopped talking.

It took Liu Bei a lot of strength to control his indescribable expression.He couldn't help but think, according to the rumors, this You Heng has a weird temper, which is different from ordinary people... It's just that the weirdness in the past was manifested in arrogance, rudeness, and cursing at will, but now it's just a weird way, so there is no need to be too serious. care too much.

Adjusting his mentality at an extremely fast speed, Liu Bei completely dispelled the idea of ​​being close and poaching the wall.

He really can't stand your servant, so let's stay and harm Cao Cao.

No matter what he thought in his heart, Liu Bei's expression was gentle and calm, impeccable.

He expressed regret for Zheng Ping's words, got up as if nothing had happened, walked a few steps in the direction of Sima Yi and his wife, and sat down near the wall coat.

He had noticed earlier that when Zheng Ping mentioned Cao Pi's vomiting just now, Sima Yi and his wife were very calm, showing no signs of surprise.He guessed that Sima Yi and his wife probably knew the inside story. Since Zheng Ping didn't want to tell him, it would be the same to ask Sima Yi and his wife.

Liu Bei took the cup from the maid, and respected the two parties from a distance:

"Substitute water for wine, toast a few."

Despite being choked up by Zheng Ping's soft words, Liu Bei still showed a good demeanor. He didn't deliberately put people aside, but treated everyone equally and respected them together.

Everyone returned their drinks in a face-saving way, and even Zheng Ping raised his cup, as if what he said just now was just a casual mention.

The atmosphere was relaxed again.Liu Bei wanted to have a deep talk with Sima Yi, and he didn't despise him because of his age.

Sima Yi replied with a serious look.Out of caution, he withdrew his sharpness and did not show his sharpness, but he did not hide his clumsiness too much, but occasionally showed one or two unique insights, proving that he is not an idiot.

In Liu Bei's view, although this young man named Sima Yi lacked a bit of agility and flexibility, he was still a qualified talent and worthy of acquaintance.

When the two got a little familiar, Liu Bei calmly brought the topic to Cao Pi.

He didn't mention Cao Pi directly, but mentioned the abnormality he noticed when he entered the door.

With Sima Yi's prudence and vigilance, it is impossible for him, who has seen the truth of Cao Pi's "serious injury", to get into troubled water at this time.It's one thing not to want to be loyal to Cao Cao, but he also doesn't want to be hated by Cao Cao, not to mention he doesn't know Liu Bei that well.

So Sima Yi just said indifferently: "It's so."

Liu Bei waited for him to write, and after waiting for a long time, he found that there was no text at all.

What happened to the Sikong Mansion? What disease did Cao Cao's son Cao Pi suffer from? Why did Ni Heng and Sima Yi keep silent and keep secret?

Liu Bei's heart became even more anxious, as if a feather was scratching his heart, itching everywhere but unable to catch it.

He had no choice but to drink honey water to relieve his worries for a while, and planned countless possibilities in his mind, no matter which possibility pointed to one point: don't make Cao Cao's bad luck today.

Liu Bei was hesitating whether to leave early when he suddenly heard a familiar male voice from the door:

"Keep a few of you waiting for a long time, and you will be disappointed."

Everyone got up to greet each other, but only one person sat in his original position and had no intention of moving.

Liu Bei glanced at Zheng Ping, and reminded him: "Your servant, Sikong is here, you should stand up to greet him."

Zheng Ping was unmoved, Cao Cao who came in saw the battle, skipped the number one who was out of place, and held Liu Bei's hand affectionately:

"There are so many things to do today, Xuande came in person but couldn't entertain in time, Cao felt deeply guilty."

Zheng Ping knew that someone was hiding next door to eavesdrop after passing Li Jin.He expected that person to be Cao Cao, so naturally he would not believe Cao Cao's nonsense.Because in the future he will fight on Cao Ying's side, out of rare humanitarianism, he didn't expose it, and let Cao Cao and Liu Bei fight.

Liu Bei listened to Cao Cao talking about "busy affairs", and his desire to explore after being killed twice sprouted again. He pretended to inadvertently ask what Cao Cao was busy with, but saw Cao Cao surprised and said:

"Why, Xuande didn't come here to comfort me because he heard the wind?"

Liu Bei felt a rare embarrassment. Just as he was about to explain, Cao Cao suddenly restrained his expression and asked seriously, "Then why did Xuande come here this time?"

If nothing happens in Cao Cao's house today, then he can lay the groundwork and tell the reason for his visit today.

But today something happened in the Sikong mansion, and he knew nothing about the situation in the Sikong mansion, so he was very passive.

While hesitating, he turned his gaze and glanced at the only person sitting in the room.

"I came to see Sikong for a personal matter... These few are Sikong's distinguished guests, why don't we let them talk first?"

Cao Cao followed Liu Bei's gaze and saw Zheng Ping who was sitting comfortably.
