Chapter 155 Military Advisor Knows Me, Mei Cheng's Use As for Mei Cheng, he was really troubled by Qin Zhen in this timeline. Just because of the previous judgment that Qin Zhen had a "rebellious mind", he became a lifelong shadow for Mei Cheng. In order to save his life, Mei Cheng would lift his hair almost every day to try to figure out whether he really had a rebellious nature. But every time he touched it, he felt that his head was quite smooth and he didn't notice anything particularly different. Therefore, his first reaction when he saw Qin Zhen was to let Qin Zhen take another look at him. There is absolutely no rebelliousness behind his head! Not even a bulge! But Qin Zhen didn't even look at them. He simply asked them if they were willing to surrender and then gave them freedom. To be honest, whether he is willing to surrender or not, others may not know, but how could Qin Zhen not know? Liu Bei didn't even say a word to persuade him to surrender, but he surrendered anyway! With such a sincere surrender, does Qin Zhen need to ask anything? Sometimes he really couldn't understand what kind of prejudice Qin Zhen had against him. Fortunately, since being released from prison by Qin Zhen, Qin Zhen has never actively disturbed them brothers again.

His paranoia also gradually subsided a lot. But he didn't expect that after a few months of silence, Qin Zhen would actually take the initiative to lead the two brothers to the battle! Along the way, he worked diligently and did not dare to slack off for the slightest. I thought he just came out with Mei Gan for a visit and would go back. Unexpectedly, just after he fell asleep that day, he received the news that Qin Zhen summoned him. Hearing that Qin Zhen had summoned him, Mei Cheng stood up and asked hurriedly: "The military advisor summoned me late at night. What's the matter?" Seeing this, the messenger shook his head and said: "The military advisor didn't say anything, he just told the general to go and discuss the matter!" Mei Cheng's heart sank when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked: "Military Advisor, do you want all the generals to go together, or do you want me to go alone?" "I don't know about this!" The messenger thought for a while and said: "But the military advisor has issued a strict order that the general can only go alone and must not let anyone else know!" When Mei Cheng heard these words, he was filled with confusion and didn't understand what Qin Zhen was doing. If we really want to discuss the matter, we should summon all the generals! It was impossible to let only a young player like him, who had no leader, go. Besides, what on earth could it be that would require him to go alone and hide it from everyone? After thinking for a while, he still had no idea, so he had to get up and follow the soldier who delivered the message out of the camp. It was the third watch at this time, and most of the soldiers had already rested. It was very quiet and silent everywhere, with only the messenger soldier leading the way.

When Mei Cheng saw this, his heart tightened. He thought that Qin Zhen was luring him out of the camp in the middle of the night, maybe he wanted to kill him! But thinking of this, he shook his head again. If Qin Zhen wanted to kill him, there was no need to go through so much trouble. He had no soldiers or followers, so he could just kill him! If it's not to kill him, then what else can we do? He was very confused! While he was thinking, the soldier in front stopped and said: "General Mei, the military advisor is inside the tent, please go in!" Seeing this, Mei Cheng nodded and was about to step in. But suddenly, he stopped and stood at the door without moving! He thought that since Qin Zhen didn't want to kill him and couldn't discuss any important matters with him, what could he do in the middle of the night? Could it be that Qin Zhen has a crush on Long Yang and wants him to come and sleep with him? As soon as this thought came to his mind, Mei Cheng was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and could no longer make any further progress. Mei Yuli doesn't have many advantages, except for one thing: he is handsome, with a fair complexion and little beard. It was late at night, and Qin Zhen called him to meet him alone without letting anyone else know. If you didn't want to sleep with him, why would you be so sneaky? Thinking of this, he was in a dilemma. He couldn't help but lament that he had finally escaped with his life, but now he had to fall into the situation of selling ditches! Looking at Qin Zhen's eight-foot tall body, what would happen if he was forced to do it? Even if it was forced, the key point was how he would live his life if this got out? Such thoughts made him hesitate and dare not go in further. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a rather majestic voice sounded from inside the tent: "But Mei Yuli is here? Why doesn't she come in when she arrives at the tent?" The sound made Mei Cheng tremble. He gritted his teeth and entered the tent. However, after entering the tent, he found that the scenes were not as he had imagined. There was only Qin Zhen sitting inside with his body straight, as if he was handling official business. Mei Cheng saw this and made up his mind, then stepped forward and saluted, saying: "Mei Cheng, your humble servant, greets the military advisor!" Having said that, he straightened himself up, ready to meet his fate. But Qin Zhen just nodded lightly, looked up and glanced at him, then uttered the word "sit". Apart from this, there were no other actions. Seeing him like this, Mei Cheng's body stiffened. He looked around, found a cushion and sat down in a corner of the tent. He naturally wanted to stay away from Qin Zhen. But as soon as he sat down, Qin Zhen looked up and said: "Why are you sitting so far away? Come here!" When Mei Cheng saw this, his heart ached and he felt extremely humiliated. He had no choice but to slowly walk to Qin Zhen and prepare to sit next to him. But as soon as he approached, Qin Zhen raised his eyebrows again and said: "You want to sit with me?" Seeing Qin Zhen raise his eyebrows, Mei Cheng was frightened, not knowing what was wrong with him. After thinking it over, he aimed at the seat opposite Qin Zhen and hurriedly went up and sat down. After he sat down this time, Qin Zhen lowered his head again and said while handling official business:

"Do you know why I called you here this time?" When Mei Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but start thinking. Just now he thought Qin Zhen wanted to sleep with him, but it seems that Qin Zhen has no interest in him at all. It wasn't for any shameful matter, but why did he call him here alone so late at night? Then there is only one possibility, Qin Zhen has an important task for him to do! And this matter has to be done secretly from everyone! Thinking of this, he immediately turned his worry into joy and bowed hurriedly: "The military advisor must have an important mission, but if you need me, I will be loyal to him and will not hesitate to die for him!" What he fears most is not having opportunities. Now that he has the opportunity to show himself, he will naturally try his best to show himself. As soon as he bowed, Qin Zhen raised his head, pulled out the brush and said with a smile: "You're a smart guy!" As he spoke, he looked at the brush in his hand and said: "It's a pity that my intelligence is used in the wrong place!" "Do you know why I said you had a rebellious mind?" Hearing Qin Zhen mention this, Mei Cheng was naturally surprised, but in fact he was also wondering about this matter. On what basis did Qin Zhen say that he had a rebellious mind? Is it true that just by looking at him, you can tell that he is a two-faced person? He hesitated while thinking: "Maybe I have this face? I really don't know!" But this time, after he finished speaking, Qin Zhen shook his head and smiled: "You are truly foolish. You disrespected the imperial court and spoke treasonous words, which displeased me, Your Excellency!" "Even if you surrender, I will kill you!" "I told you that you have a rebellious nature, so I can encourage you to beg for mercy and save your life!" "Think about it carefully, is it true or not?" Looking at Qin Zhen's smile, Mei Cheng trembled and suddenly recalled the scene of that day. It seemed to be true! The reason why he was determined to surrender was because he knew that his words had angered Liu Bei and that Liu Bei would probably kill him. Judging from the situation at that time, if Qin Zhen had not spoken, Liu Bei might really have pushed him down and beheaded him. But after Qin Zhen's words, Liu Bei found it difficult to take action! He originally thought it was a coincidence, but he didn't expect that Qin Zhen did it on purpose. In other words, from beginning to end, Qin Zhen had no intention of harming him. Not only did it not harm him, but it saved his life? All of a sudden, he realized what was happening and froze on the spot. After a long while, he showed excitement and knelt down to say: "I was really unwise. I actually misunderstood the good intentions of the military advisor!" "Please accept my greeting, Advisor, to thank you for saving my life!" Unexpectedly, as soon as he knelt down, Qin Zhen stood up and supported him, saying: "General, there is no need to do this. The reason why I spared your life is because you are not a two-faced person!"

"The general's behavior in the past was nothing more than a lack of courtesy due to his eagerness to show off!" "As the saying goes, people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. It is understandable that the general is like this, so I don't want to harm him!" These words were of great earnestness and Mei Cheng was deeply moved after hearing them. I secretly thought that after all these years I finally met a close friend! Why does he work so hard? Isn't it just for a better future? Although his method was a bit despicable, his starting point was right! No one in the world knows him, but he never expected that the person who understands him best is the military advisor he fears the most! When he thought about his previous speculations about Qin Zhen, he felt that it was really wrong and said with emotion: "The military advisor knows me, the military advisor knows me!" As he said this, his eyes turned red and he was filled with emotion. But Qin Zhen saw this and spoke again: "I think the general is a man of talent, so I brought him here this time and summoned him late at night because I have an important mission to entrust to him!" "I have observed that among all the generals, apart from the general, there is no one else I can trust!" "I just wonder if the general is willing to do it?" When Mei Cheng heard that Qin Zhen really had an important task to entrust to him, he was overjoyed. He thought that he had followed Mei Qian for many years, and now someone finally valued him. Mei Qian is in the army right now, but Qin Zhen doesn't want to use him and insists on using him. It shows that he wants to make great use of him! Qin Zhen's status is so high now. If he is promoted, won't he be able to rise to a high position in the future? Without waiting for Qin Zhen to say anything, he expressed his opinion: "Military advisor, please feel free to say it. How can I not be willing to carry it out?" Qin Zhen saw this and nodded and smiled: "I know the general can be of great use!" "But before we proceed, we need to confirm one thing. Does the general know Liu Xun?" Mei Cheng heard this and said with a smile: "Of course I know this man. I'm afraid the military advisor doesn't know that although Liu Xun is from Langya, he likes to keep retainers!" "Some of his retainers are old acquaintances of mine!" As he said this, he suddenly reacted: "Military Advisor, do you want me to serve under Liu Xun as an insider?" He was not a very smart person, but he was definitely not stupid. He knew what Qin Zhen meant as soon as he heard it. When Qin Zhen saw this, he nodded and smiled: "General, you are indeed smart. I will not hide it from you. Although we have come here this time, our intention is to plot against Liu Xun." "I know that the general is from Lujiang, so I want to use a trick to lure his army."

"But there is no need for the general to go. Since there is someone you know, you can just send a letter!" "If you can defeat Liu Xun, it will be a credit to the general!" "Not only will all my past sins be forgiven, but after I return, I can also personally commend the general for his merits!" Mei Cheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and he hurriedly bowed and said: "Military Advisor, there is no need to say anything more. I am willing to carry out this plan!" But after he finished speaking, he saw Qin Zhen's eyes showing hesitation, and he hurriedly asked: "Why is the military advisor like this? Did I say something inappropriate?" Qin Zhen saw this and couldn't help but sigh: "It's not that the general said something wrong, it's just that we have to act on this plan suddenly. I'm afraid Liu Xun doesn't believe it!" "The general must suffer a little and use some self-torture tactics before he can gain his trust!" Mei Cheng is a decisive person. Seeing Qin Zhen like this, he gritted his teeth and said: "I have received the military advisor's kindness, so I shall be devoted to him without complaint or regret. It may just be a little hardship, but as long as I can accomplish something, I will do anything!" "It is a great kindness of the general to have such aspirations!" Qin Zhen listened, turned around and took out a wine jar and said: "Among the many prohibitions in our army today, the prohibition of alcohol is the lightest punishment!" "General, if you wish to carry out this plan, then write a letter as I say and drink this wine. You will be punished tomorrow and then you can recover from your injuries. I will show you my achievements tomorrow!" "If the general does not wish to do so, you may leave. I will call Mei Qian to see you again!" Mei Cheng saw that Qin Zhen had even prepared the wine, which showed that he was determined to let him carry out this plan. If he were to be replaced by plums, when would he ever be able to make a breakthrough? He gritted his teeth, lifted the jar of wine and took a sip, saying: "Military Advisor, please don't hesitate to speak. I will write the letter right away." So he wrote a letter under Qin Zhen's guidance. After Qin Zhen finished reading it, he picked up the jar and went towards his tent. After Mei Cheng left, Qin Zhen looked at the letter in his hand and nodded secretly. Although Mei Cheng is extremely selfish, he has a strong drive in his bones. If he can maintain it, he can be useful! (End of this chapter)
