After some probing before, Zheng Ping has already confirmed that Liu Bei in this world is not the benevolent and weak Uncle Liu who often weeps in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but is closer to the role of the angry governor in the official history.

Even if there is a slight discrepancy with Liu Bei in the official history, he is by no means a good one.

Therefore, after hearing Liu Bei's polite words just now, Zheng Ping couldn't help looking at Cao Cao with great interest.

Liu Bei's move is causing trouble, and I don't know if Cao Cao is in the mood to cooperate.

If Cao Cao hadn't eavesdropped next door before; if Zheng Ping hadn't taken the risk of saving Cao Pi, and had vaguely shown his intention to belong to Cao Ying, then Cao Cao might have cooperated with acting and angrily reprimanded Cao Pi.

Zheng Ping's disrespect for him.

However, if there is no if, Cao Cao asked Liu Bei knowingly before, and used words to choke Liu Bei, which already means that Liu Bei's impression in his heart has undergone earth-shaking changes.

I saw Cao Cao hurriedly took two steps in the direction of Zheng Ping, as if he was going to make trouble.

Liu Bei watched calmly, and saw Cao Cao walking up to Zheng Ping, looking majestic...and sitting opposite him.

Liu Bei: ...?

Cao Cao refilled a glass of water for Zheng Ping in a friendly and cordial manner: "Zheng Ping, are you satisfied with the refreshments in my house?"

Even a calm and self-retaining person like Liu Bei showed a ghostly look for a moment.

He looked towards the door subconsciously. The sun was still hanging in the sky, and there were no strange phenomena such as the eclipse of the sun.

Didn't it mean that the relationship between Mi Heng and Cao Cao is very bad?One beat the drums and scolded Cao, making Cao Cao so angry that his headache worsened; the other regarded Mi Heng as an annoying leech, and said, "Killing Mi Heng is like killing an orphan bird."What happened to this friendly and kind Cao Cao in front of him?

Liu Bei doubted life alone in horror.Sima Yi and his wife on the other side were much calmer in comparison.

With Cao Pi's attitude first, although they were a little surprised by Cao Cao's reaction, they were not particularly surprised.

Sima Yi thought of the scene when he first met Zheng Ping.Although he was pretending to be sick at the time, he was secretly observing Zheng Ping's temperament and behavior carefully.When they met again, Zheng Ping's skill was beyond his expectation, completely different from the frailty Yi showed when they first met.

When he knew that he was the Mi Heng mentioned in his brother's letter, Sima Yi remained silent, and couldn't help wondering whether that arrogant and rude appearance was also one of his disguises.Now based on Cao Cao's words and deeds, he affirmed the guess in his heart, and believed that Zheng Ping was extremely good at disguising, not only that, but also very skillful and scheming.If it is not necessary, it must not be provoked easily.

By mistake, Sima Yi took Mi Heng's mad move as Zheng Ping's deliberate action, but happened to be wrong, guessed some truths, and successfully avoided the confrontation with Zheng Ping.

Years later, when he thought of his state of mind and choice at this time, You Zi felt very lucky.

Not far away, Zheng Ping and Cao Cao had successfully achieved the first round of "showing friendship". When Liu Bei regained his original composure, Zheng Ping seemed to call his name unintentionally. The cited behavior is no different.

"General Liu, do you think this is the case?"

Liu Bei had just returned from the extreme shock when he suddenly heard Zheng Ping calling "General Liu", and it took him a while to realize that he was calling himself.

He responded twice casually, and his wariness towards Zheng Ping rose to the peak.

Why would Cao Cao treat Cao Cao differently when he played cards against common sense and offended Cao Cao to death?Why did he mention Cao Pi before? It was really just because of the coincidence of his sitting position, and he reminded him casually, or did he have ulterior motives, what purpose did he want to achieve through this sentence?

Liu Bei kept analyzing all the possibilities in his mind, and when his brain ached, he still didn't relax and was on guard against everything.

At this moment, he suddenly heard Cao Cao say: "The only heroes in the world are Xuande and Cao Er."

Liu Bei was shocked for a moment and almost choked on his saliva.

Before he could say anything, the sound of eager footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.

After a while, a guard in military uniform suddenly broke into the courtyard and knelt in front of the bamboo curtain:

"Report! Second Young Master suddenly vomits blood continuously, please show me, Sikong!"

Zheng Ping was a little surprised that Cao Cao chose to launch at this time, and glanced in Liu Bei's direction.

Cao Cao stood up abruptly, swayed for a moment, and shouted: "Take my seal and go to the palace to ask for the imperial physician's order."

Then he reluctantly said to Liu Bei and others, "The house is in chaos, so I can't entertain a few more people."

Liu Bei said empathetically, "Sikong, take care."

It's not easy to ask other questions at this time, so I can only watch Cao Cao leave in a hurry.

But Liu Bei knew Cao Cao's second son through the few words just now, and now the eldest son is probably not very good.He knew that staying here might cause disaster, and he might be angered, so he just found an excuse to leave and left Sikong Mansion.

When he left Sikong Mansion, he realized that none of his purposes for visiting Cao Cao had been fulfilled.

Liu Bei was silent, warning himself not to act too hastily.With the changes in Cao Cao's house, there may be some turmoil in the past few days, so let's wait for these things to pass.

For the next few days, Liu Bei had been secretly waiting for news from Sikong's mansion, but unexpectedly, Cao Cao's mansion seemed to be still, and there was no sound for several days.

Whether it is getting better or worse, there is always an option, and no sound is the biggest abnormality.

Thinking that the Sikong Mansion hadn't searched for a famous doctor in the city for two consecutive days, Liu Bei knew it well and sighed secretly.

Liu Bei stayed behind closed doors for the next few days, continuing to wait for news.However, three days later, what the servants heard was not news from the Sikong mansion, but a visit from the chariot and cavalry general Dong Cheng.

Dong Cheng was Dong Zhuo's former subordinate, a great hero who was honored by the emperor, and was highly valued by the emperor.

Liu Bei had no friendship with Dong Cheng. In his opinion, Dong Cheng's visit meant endless troubles, so the concierge refused because of illness.

After a while, the concierge came back with the news.

"General Che Qi said...he just wants to see the Lord, and he won't disturb the Lord for too long, and this trip is private, no one else will know. But if the Lord refuses, he will continue to wait at the door for a long time until As long as the master is willing to meet...whether others will notice it when you introduce it, it is unknown."

This blatant threat made Liu Bei frown in anger. Although he hated such rogue behavior, he could only send someone to welcome the opponent into the door and see what he did.

He lay in bed and pretended to be sick.After Dong Cheng came in, he exchanged greetings, seeing Liu Bei's sick appearance, he laughed mockingly.

"General Liu, I have something that will cure all your illnesses."

Liu Bei didn't have time to refuse, a black belt was thrown in front of him.

Liu Bei didn't change his face and said, "General Dong, does he want to strangle Bei to death?"

Dong Chengjie laughed: "Indeed, if you are strangled to death, you won't get sick again... But General Liu, why would I be willing to let you die?"

These words were quite perverted, but Liu Bei still showed no expression, as if what Dong Cheng said was just a boring nonsense.

Dong Cheng felt that he was bored, so he opened the silk thread on the outside of his belt to reveal the inner lining.

"Liu Bei accepts the order."

Surprised, Liu Bei quickly turned over from the couch and knelt down on the ground.

"The imperial edict said: I have been ordered by you hereby, and when the world is split apart...Cao Cao, the eunuch, took advantage of the moment and got a piece of land...I thought he was loyal,

Ming De rectified, unexpectedly concealed the wolf's intentions, intending to offend Tianyan..."

The more Liu Bei listened, the more cold sweat broke out, and then he heard the words praising the insightful people, and asked the loyal officials of the Han Dynasty to clean up the emperor's side.

Although he didn't want to surrender to Cao Cao, he also knew that Cao Cao's power was increasing day by day, and he was extremely difficult to deal with and could not be easily shaken.

The edict may not be issued by the emperor, but the edict does bear the imprint of the emperor...

Liu Bei struggled in his heart for a long time, and finally made a decision.
