Ke Qing said, "Fang Qiu can write 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' and she also helped me build a wide tunnel that can accommodate a large number of convoys. If we can recruit her to work for us, it will definitely be of great help. Gan Yu, what do you think?"

"That's true."

Gan Yu nodded and said, "Miss Fang Qiu is indeed quite talented. However, I have tried to subtly inquire before, and it seems that Miss Fang Qiu has no interest in working at Yujingtai."

"Yes, I also mentioned this to her, but she politely declined."

Ke Qing sighed and said, "So, I'm considering whether I should follow the example of Liu Bei in the book and visit Zhuge Liang's thatched cottage three times."

As she spoke, she looked in the direction of Fang Qiu's house with a hint of melancholy.

Despite saying that, she felt the chances of success were slim.

……

At this time, at Fang Qiu's home.

Inside the bedroom.

Fang Qiu opened her eyes groggily, stared at the familiar ceiling, and after a moment of blankness, a strange look flashed across her slightly pale face.

She pulled back the covers and picked up the lazy cat, whose pajamas were all messed up.

Seeing Tingyu stretch gracefully on the quilt, Fang Qiu also stretched along with her.

"Ugh... I'm so tired..."

Fang Qiu rubbed her eyes.

These days, all she does is write, sleep, and eat. She wrote until late last night before going to sleep.

She didn't know what time it was, since she didn't have a clock.

Combined with her previous overwork, she felt like she was about to burn out completely.

"Isn't today the day the card game is released?"

Fang Qiu glanced at the card game called "Chasing the Deer" on his desk.

That was delivered by Ningguang's secretary yesterday.

She has all the characters that you need to draw, except for the basic deck and basic characters.

"How about we take a day off today, relax, and go play some card games with Hu Tao and the others?"

Fang Qiu thought to herself.

However, it's still early, and Hu Tao might still be sleeping...

She walked to the living room, which was empty.

"Ugh."

Fang Qiu couldn't help but sigh. Why hadn't Shen He returned yet...?

Speaking of which, being a civil servant in Liyue must be incredibly tough.

I've been back in Liyue for so long, and Shen He still hasn't come home...

If she hadn't known that Shen He was alright, she would have gone to the Abyss of Layered Rocks to find her.

Being a civil servant is really tough...

Never mind, I'll just have breakfast and go back to sleep.

Just as Fang Qiu was lamenting that even if he starved to death or jumped out of bed, he would never become a civil servant, Ke Qing and Gan Yu had already arrived at the surrounding shops near Wanwen Jishe with umbrellas.

Despite the rain, queues had already formed at the nearby shops, and the place was bustling with activity.

"Damn it, my luck is so bad! How come I got Cao Cao three times in a row?!"

"Holy crap, Cao Cao isn't good enough? You're going a bit too far. Countless people want him but don't have him."

"Without your grandpa, can the people still in line shut up? Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan were all given to us by their mothers!"

"My God, is this some kind of charity? They actually gave it to Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan!"

"Hahaha, I got Guan Yu! Wow, so this is what the mighty Guan Yu looks like! He's so imposing, even more imposing than I imagined!"

"I'll have one too, come out here, Guan Yu... Ah, why is it Pan Feng... I give up..."

"I was luckier than you; at least I drew something related to Guan Yu."

"What did you pull out? Was it Guan Yu's son?"

"No, it's Guan Yu's sword holder, Zhou Cang."

"Haha, I've chosen Zhuge Liang! The Crouching Dragon who strategizes within the tent and wins battles a thousand miles away! Although his ranking is rather low."

"Let me pick up the cards and look at them one by one. Holy crap, it's Zhuge Liang! What's the second character? Ge! Great, I've drawn Zhuge Liang too."

"Uh, your Zhuge Liang seems a bit different from mine."

"What's different? Holy crap, mine is Zhuge Jin, this is awful..."

"My first card pack was skeletons from the grave... No, I need to do a ten-pull!"

"I got Diao Chan! She's so beautiful!"

At the store entrance, many people were impatiently opening character card packs that were separate from the main card game.

"Let's hurry up and line up."

Gan Yu said.

"Ah."

Ke Qing nodded and followed behind Gan Yu.

As soon as she lined up, Keqing spotted two familiar figures.

He is that guest elder of the Hall of Rebirth.

He was holding an umbrella, following behind his own hall master, while Hu Tao, the hall master of the Rebirth Hall, was covering the card games piled up on the entire cart with an oilcloth.

After covering themselves, the two walked into the crowd together under the umbrella.

Ke Qing was somewhat surprised.

Even the old-fashioned Mr. Zhongli was surprisingly interested in Fang Qiu's card game.

Even after the Emperor passed away, he changed somewhat.

It seems we should consider contacting him to see if he has his own opinions and then recruit him to our team.

"Keqing, what are you looking at?"

Gan Yu asked.

"It's nothing, I just saw someone I know."

Ke Qing smiled and shook her head.

There weren't many people in line, and they bought over two hundred character card packs and two sets of card games.

Carrying the cards, they returned to Yujingtai.

……

Hu Tao and Zhong Li returned to the Hall of Rebirth.

At this moment, Lao Meng and Yi Guan Xiao Mei had already woken up. Seeing them return, they hurriedly came to greet them.

"Master, Mr. Zhongli, you're back! What brings you here?"

After greeting everyone, the young female attendant turned her gaze to the small cart covered by an oilcloth.

"You guys divide up Fang Qiu's 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' card game. There are also ten character card packs for each of you. Hurry up, let's open them and then the four of us can play a game."

Hu Tao picked up a set of cards, then sat down at the coffee table with her own character card pack, happily opening the character cards.

"Hmm, not bad. The first one is Zhen Mi, the second one is Zhao Yun, the third one is Zhou Yu, and the fourth one is Diao Chan..."

Soon, Hu Tao had finished opening her own character card pack.

The cards they played were all famous characters from "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

"Zhongli, take a look at yours?"

"After it was all dismantled," Hu Tao said.

Zhong Li remained calm and casually opened his character card pack.

Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Zhang Liao, Gan Ning.

"Hmm...not bad."

Zhongli glanced at the two rows of gleaming gold cards on the table and nodded indifferently.

"Zhongli, you're really lucky."

Hu Tao exclaimed in surprise.

"Wow, the drop rate for this card game is so high! It's my turn now."

Old Meng opened his wallet with a smile, then his smile froze.

Pan Feng, Yuan Shu, He Jin, Xiahou En, Xiahou Jie, Xing Daorong...

After opening a ten-card pack, all I got was Pang Tong, who had just joined Liu Bei's camp and died at Luofeng Slope.

others……

General Pan Feng was slain by Hua Xiong with a single blow.

Yuan Shu, whose remains were consigned to the grave by Cao Cao, was killed by Liu Bei during his escape.

He Jin was beheaded by the Ten Attendants because of his stupidity.

Xiahou En was killed by Zhao Yun with a single spear thrust at Changban Slope, who also stole the Qinggang Sword.

Xiahou Jie was scared to death by Zhang Fei's shout at Changban Bridge.

General Xing Daorong of Lingling...

In Fang Qiu's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he drew almost all the shameful generals whose names could be called.

In the book, it's unclear whether all his generals combined could defeat even one of Zhongli's generals...
