"I wonder what brings you here, Brother Sun Ce?"

Previously, he had no interaction with Sun Ce and his sister. Since Sun Ce took the initiative to befriend him, he must have some purpose.

"Young Master Jiang is indeed incredibly insightful..."

Seeing that Jiang Che spoke so directly, Sun Ce smiled wryly, pondered for a moment, and then explained to Jiang Che.

"I have indeed come here with a favor to ask of Young Master Jiang..."

Having been in Chang'an for quite some time, Sun Ce had been secretly investigating and trying to befriend the prodigies of various imperial dynasties and powerful families.

Jiang Che's cultivation was remarkable. As a true disciple of the academy, he was highly regarded by the Empress. This was no secret in the cultivation circles of Chang'an City, so Sun Ce had already taken notice of him.

In order to overthrow the tyrant's rule in Jiang County, what he needs to do now is to make friends with heroes from all walks of life as much as possible, and Jiang Che is naturally within his target range.

A Nascent Soul stage cultivator at the age of twenty!

Looking across the entire world, how many people can achieve such dazzling success as Jiang Che at the age of twenty?

When he was twenty, he had only just broken through to the Golden Core stage. Now, five or six years later, he has only just reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, which is still a step weaker than Jiang Che's current level.

Jiang Che possesses considerable cultivation and a formidable background. If he could obtain the other party's strong support, his chances of success would increase significantly.

Of course, Sun Ce also understood that it would not be easy to accomplish this, since he and Jiang Che were complete strangers before.

Therefore, Sun Ce had already devised a countermeasure and was determined to win over Jiang Che no matter the cost!

"Can I ask for help?"

"Why?"

Jiang Che continued to ask questions calmly, his heart filled with interest.

"Does Young Master Jiang have any information about the situation in the Three Kingdoms region?"

Sun Ce did not answer Jiang Che's question immediately, but instead asked a question in return.

"I know a little. There are three dynasties in the Three Kingdoms region: Wei, led by Cao Cao; Yi, led by Liu Bei; and Jiang County..."

Jiang Che spoke calmly, and upon hearing Sun Ce's question, he already knew the reason why Sun Ce had come to find him.

He simply wanted to take this opportunity to win me over and get me on his side.

According to the original storyline of the game, in another year or two, Sun Ce, together with Zhou Yu and others, would rise up in rebellion, overthrow the rule of the tyrant of Jiang County, become king and emperor, and unify Jiang County.

Then, by chance, Sun Ce married Da Qiao, and Zhou Yu married the adorable Xiao Qiao, and the two brothers reached the pinnacle of their lives.

Of course, now that I've come, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's hopes can only be dashed.

Although Jiang Che had little interest in the symmetry of the king's reign and imperial ambitions, he was quite interested in the Qiao sisters, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao.

The older sister is gentle and considerate, the younger sister is cute and charming, and she's a legally recognized loli!

Sisters!

I doubt any man could resist!

"That's right..."

"Jiangjun is already in a precarious state under the rule of those in power; the people are starving and living in misery..."

"Officials and gentry preyed on the common people, abusing their power and causing untold suffering to the lower classes of Jiang County..."

Sun Ce sighed helplessly, spoke in a deep voice, his face solemn, his fists clenched, and veins bulging on his forehead. Clearly, he hated the rulers of Jiang County to the core and loathed them to the extreme.

Having lived in Jiangjun for a long time, Sun Ce was naturally well aware of the various situations beneath the prosperous exterior of Jiangjun. The people were suffering terribly, unable to bear the burden, and their lives were extremely difficult. Even filling their stomachs was a problem.

It was after witnessing so many tragic scenes that Sun Ce finally made up his mind to overthrow the tyranny.

Although he was filled with fervor and eager to immediately kill the tyrannical ruler and restore peace and order to the people of Jiang County, Sun Ce also clearly understood that it was unrealistic for him to accomplish this great undertaking on his own.

To be on the safe side, his family wouldn't give him much support. After all, the Sun family has many descendants, and he's not the only heir. They can't put all their eggs in one basket.

Therefore, Sun Ce had previously considered marrying his younger sister, Sun Shangxiang, to Liu Bei to form an alliance with Yicheng, but his sister was unwilling, so he had to give up the idea.

He brought his younger sister, Sun Shangxiang, to the Lantern Festival in Chang'an for this very reason: to make friends with various talented individuals and seize the opportunity to make his move.

Jiang Che was the person he was trying his best to win over. He had considerable cultivation and a terrifying background. With Jiang Che's strong support, Sun Ce was confident that he could overthrow the tyrant's rule!

........................

"So, Brother Sun, you want to join forces with me to overthrow that tyrant's rule?"

Jiang Che looked at Sun Ce with a strange expression and directly revealed the other party's true thoughts.

Compared to Sun Ce's indignant appearance, Jiang Che seemed much calmer. After all, such things were common in all dynasties and happened frequently, so it was not surprising at all.

Even today, the Tang Dynasty is prosperous and flourishing under the protection of the Empress, with the Daoist arts thriving and all nations paying tribute. It is at its peak. However, a hundred years ago, during that turmoil, the situation was not much better than that of Jiang County.

After the Empress ascended to the highest position, she began to recuperate and do good for the people, and the situation gradually began to improve.

Aside from a few prosperous dynasties like the Tang Dynasty of Heluo and the Qin Kingdom of Xuanyong, similar events were happening every day in other parts of the vast land of China, and it was not limited to Jiangjun alone.

Jiang Che lacked the magnanimity to care for the world and the ambition to achieve great things, so naturally he wouldn't be as indignant as Sun Ce.

"That's right, that's exactly what I meant!"

"What does Young Master Jiang think?"

Sun Ce nodded hurriedly, his eyes fixed intently on Jiang Che, his heart pounding with a mixture of nervousness and excitement, his breathing becoming rapid.

"This kind of thing can't be accomplished overnight..."

"Sufficient time is needed for preparation and planning..."

"Besides, I won't do anything that doesn't directly benefit me..."

Jiang Che gently shook his head, giving Sun Ce an ambiguous answer.

They neither agreed nor explicitly refused; they simply said the benefits weren't enough.

As for Sun Ce, he was a native of Jiang County, born into a prestigious family, and deeply loved that land. If he could overthrow the tyrant's rule, he would surely gain the support of the people of Jiang County, don the yellow robe, ascend the throne by destiny, become emperor, and leave his name in history, gaining unimaginable benefits.

What can I gain if I go and help?

Aside from some empty fame, there are no real benefits. Why bother?

Surely he can't actually ascend the throne and declare himself emperor in Jiang County?

Jiang Che never entertained such a thought; being an emperor was no easy task.

Besides, even if I don't take action, Sun Ce will eventually replace that tyrant, so the outcome will be the same whether I am there or not.

........................

"I understand..."

"I won't disturb Young Master Jiang's enjoyment any longer... Farewell..."

After hearing Jiang Che's answer, Sun Ce frowned, but didn't say anything more. He cupped his hands in greeting and turned to leave with Sun Shangxiang.

The world is full of goodwill, and the world is all good.

Sun Ce felt a pang of regret at Jiang Che's answer, but also considered it perfectly reasonable.

After all, Jiang Che and Jiang Jun have absolutely no connection whatsoever. You can't expect the other person to be as passionate as you are, can you?

Without sufficient benefit, Jiang Che would never have helped him; it's only human nature. After all, he and Jiang Che had no prior relationship and were just strangers who met by chance.

Although Jiang Che directly rejected him, Sun Ce did not give up. Jiang Che's words left room for negotiation.

As long as he could offer enough enticing benefits, Sun Ce believed that Jiang Che would definitely support him steadfastly.

But... what could I possibly offer to entice Jiang Che?

Jiang Che was highly valued by the Empress, so he had no shortage of cultivation resources, and he certainly had a lot of divine weapons, magical techniques and secret methods.

The foundation of the Immortal Dynasty is so profound that it cannot be compared with that of a mere aristocratic family.

Thinking of this, Sun Ce felt a headache coming on, and his gaze unconsciously drifted to his graceful and beautiful younger sister beside him...

The only thing that could win Jiang Che's heart, besides his beautiful younger sister, is probably nothing else.

Sun Ce was always very confident in his younger sister's appearance, believing she was no less beautiful than the three women around Jiang Che. Otherwise, Liu Bei, the lord of Yicheng, would never have personally sent someone to propose marriage.

However, his younger sister had repeatedly vowed never to marry and spent all her time studying various weapon-refining techniques. She was indifferent to any man, so it would probably not be an easy task to bring his younger sister and Jiang Che together.

Even though Jiang Che had excellent qualifications and was much younger than Liu Bei.

"Hey bro, why are you looking at me like that?"

Feeling bewildered and confused by Sun Ce's strange gaze, Sun Shangxiang asked him a question.

"Little sister, what do you think of Jiang Che?"

Sun Ce organized his thoughts and tentatively asked the question.

"Jiang Che?"

"He's quite handsome, and his cultivation level is also quite good. He's someone to be reckoned with!"

Why is brother asking this?

Sun Shangxiang thought for a moment before answering Sun Ce's question, her expression slightly hesitant.

Sun Shangxiang had to admit that, in terms of looks and temperament alone, Jiang Che was definitely the most handsome man she had ever seen in recent years, much more handsome than her older brother, making him very easy to like.

"Cough cough...it's nothing..."

"I simply want to cultivate a relationship with this young master Jiang, so I'd like to hear your opinion..."

Staring into Sun Shangxiang's innocent and wide eyes, Sun Ce felt a pang of guilt. He coughed twice and quickly chuckled to himself.

"Is that so?"

Sun Shangxiang clearly didn't believe Sun Ce's answer, but she didn't press him for details. She seemed thoughtful and then spoke up in a charming voice.

"Jiang Che is not from Jiang County after all, and his status is prestigious. It probably won't be so easy for my brother to win him over..."

Although she was not interested in these matters and rarely cared about them, Sun Shangxiang was still good at reading people and could naturally see her brother's current predicament and knew that his idea was destined to fail.

"yes……"

"We can only slowly try to find a solution..."

Sun Ce sighed, gave Sun Shangxiang a deep look, and said nothing more.
