章 267: Chapter 255: Scholar Rushes to the Library Pavilion

Chen Xi was all too clear about the nature of alliances; one could say they were made to be broken. However, as long as such an agreement existed and there were no significant changes in the balance of power between both parties, no one would be willing to hastily start a war.

What Chen Xi needed was just that type of buffering period, during which time he could almost completely bring Qingzhou under Liu Bei's governance.

In the subsequent period, Chen Xi's life did not change much, maintaining the leisure that he was accustomed to.

"Report!" A messenger appeared in the hall, kneeling halfway and spoke.

"What's the matter?" Chen Xi asked helplessly, seeing that there went his chance for tea once again. No choice, emergencies were an inescapable reality.

"Scholars are assaulting the Library Pavilion," the messenger replied.

"Really now..." Chen Xi drank the tea in his cup and sighed, these scholars really knew how to be tiresome.
