Three Kingdoms: Do you want me to get out of here? Liu Bei, you wait

Chapter 71 Su Chen’s brilliant plan, the advancement of Mohist mechanical techniques!
"engagement!?"

Mrs. Cai's face changed, and she said with a hint of worry in her voice, "My husband, you don't want to break off the engagement, do you? That was the agreement that Huang Chengyan personally made with Zhuge Kongming when he went to Wolonggang. It is said that parents' orders and matchmaker's words are final..."

"Fool!"

When Cai Mao heard this, his face immediately turned pale and he scolded,
"Don't you see clearly the current situation in the world?
Cao Mengde was already a powerful figure, and now with the help of the talented scholar, he is even more powerful. No matter Liu Da'er or Jiang Dong, they are just dead bones in the grave. Sooner or later, they will be defeated by him.

You are still thinking about placing bets left and right, but when the time comes, you won’t even have a chance to curry favor with them!
Besides, I think Yueying's attitude towards this talented man is different from others. There are signs that they are in love with each other.

If we can bring them together, it will be like killing several birds with one stone. Not only will Yueying get a husband of her dreams, but I, Cai, will also get a good opportunity to rise to prominence. It will be a hundred benefits with no harm.

Such a good thing, are you going to stop it just because of a marriage contract?"

"This……"

Mrs. Cai was speechless.

Seeing that Cai Mao spoke so confidently, he was also moved, and finally nodded and said.

"Well, I'll just follow my husband's wishes.

Then I will write a letter now to persuade Huang Chengyan and my elder sister to cancel their engagement."

Cai Mao was satisfied and urged, "Yes, this should be done as soon as possible. It must be done quickly!"

"By the way, you should also go and counsel Yueying when you have time. It's not a bad thing for a girl to take the initiative sometimes. But as an uncle, I can't say much about this matter. It's more appropriate for you to persuade her about the boudoir."

"I understand."

……

In the small courtyard.

Cao Cao and his companions had no idea what Cai Mao was thinking outside the house.

Cao Cao, who was now the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, took the initiative to stand up and began to pour wine for Su Chen.

"Come on, I'll toast Mr. Su with another glass of wine and apologize to him for what happened just now!"

"You don't have to do this, Prime Minister."

Su Chen waved his hand to decline. He was still very grateful to Cao Cao for taking the trouble to come and rescue him personally, so he didn't beat around the bush and directly brought the topic to the point.

"Let's get down to business."

"Business? What business is there?" Cao Cao pretended to be confused.

Su Chen pointed out, "Oh, the Prime Minister came to look for me so eagerly today, isn't it because there is a new development over there in Jiangxia?"

"Hahaha, Mr. Su is very good at predicting things. Nothing can be hidden from him."

After hearing this, Cao Cao laughed.

Seeing that Su Chen had revealed his thoughts, he finally stopped hiding them.

Only then did he speak and revealed all the information related to Soochow this time.

It also specifically mentioned the story of Zhuge Liang crossing the river and going alone to Dongwu to debate with many scholars.

Want to provoke Su Chen.

However, the expression on Su Chen's face remained as calm as ever.

From beginning to end, nothing changes.

On the contrary, after hearing the arrangements from Cao Cao, he couldn't hold himself back and his expression became a little weird.

"So, Prime Minister, knowing that Zhuge Liang had already debated with the scholars and silenced the counselors of Wu, you still planned to send Jiang Gan to Wu to persuade Zhou Yu and others to surrender?"

Seeing him like this, Cao Cao must have misunderstood.

He immediately opened his mouth and began to explain.

"That's right, Mr. Su, don't underestimate Jiang Gan. Ziyi has been with me for many years and is known for his eloquence. He is unrivaled between the Jiang and Huai regions and is unmatched. Although he is not as exaggerated as Zhuge Liang's debate with the scholars, he is no ordinary person either."

"Your Excellency, you have misunderstood. It's not that I look down on Jiang Gan's talent, but I think it's meaningless to persuade him to surrender this time."

Upon hearing the news, Su Chen shook his head and expressed his opinion.

"It is said that once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Now the whole of Jiangdong is preparing for war, and the situation is set.

At this time, if Sun Quan spoke again and surrendered lightly, wouldn't he be a villain who played both sides? People like Sun Quan and Zhou Yu in Jiangdong, who wanted to keep their reputations clean, would never do such a thing.

Besides, Jiangdong is not Jingzhou, and there are still many people who are willing to sacrifice themselves for justice."

"Ugh……"

"How could I not know what Mr. Su said, but now that things have come to this, I have to give it a try, right? After all, there is always a chance of something happening."

After listening to this, Cao Cao sighed, but when he looked up again, there was still expectation in his eyes.

Look at his reaction.

Su Chen knew that it was useless to persuade him any further.

The other party still had a glimmer of hope in his heart.

He wanted to replicate the success in Xiangyang and take over the entire Eastern Wu without losing a single soldier.

Strictly speaking, he was not wrong to have this idea.

After all, Cao Cao is not a time traveler.

I hadn't read the script in advance like Su Chen, so I felt a little lucky. To some extent, this was normal.

Thinking of this, Su Chen stopped trying to persuade him.

Just get up.

I got a pen and paper and wrote a note.

He asked Huang Yueying for the sachet around her waist again.

In full view.

He made a sachet and handed it to Cao Cao.

"In that case, I will use this to repay the Prime Minister for saving me at this moment."

"Mr. Su, this is..."

Cao Cao looked at the sachet that Su Chen solemnly handed over to him, and he was still completely confused.

He raised his head and looked at the other person with an incredible look.

"This is a great idea!~"

"Prime Minister, please remember that you must not open this brocade bag until the critical moment!"

Su Chen explained, his face looking serious as he spoke.

"The critical moment?" Cao Cao was even more confused after hearing this, and quickly asked, "When is the critical moment you mentioned?"

Su Chen calculated the time and said.

"When Jiang Gan returns to Xiangyang, it will be almost done."

"what?"

Cao Cao was completely confused.

But that wasn't the time for him to get to the bottom of the matter.

Su Chen had already bowed and left the courtyard.

His original intention was to take advantage of the night to get some fresh air, sober up, and relax.

But I didn't expect that I would just walk out of the yard today.

Huang Yueying came over right away.

This girl's mind and eyes are really full of schemes.

Come here this time.

Not for anything else.

He really took the relevant mechanism drawings he had made before and brought them to Su Chen.

I hope Su Chen can give me some advice.

Seeing this, Su Chen naturally had no reason to refuse.

He immediately reached out and took it.

"Zhuge Crossbow? It really is Zhuge Crossbow!"

Although I heard Huang Yueying mention it in Tianlao before.

Su Chen already had a rough guess in his mind.

But when I really saw Huang Yueying handing the drawing to me.

Su Chen still felt surprised and happy.

But the surprises obviously didn't end there.

He had just unfolded the blueprint.

Haven't waited to take a closer look yet.

The next moment, the crisp system prompt rang in his mind again.
