บท 121: I am Chen Zichuan, you are Fa Xiaozhi" Chapter 121

"Strategizing really is troublesome, and I wonder if Zijian has brought back my two friends yet?" Chen Xi saw that Fa Zheng remained silent and smiled. He was very clear about how much shock this great victory would bring to the people of the world, as well as how much fame it would bring to himself. At the very least, after this, he wouldn't be at any disadvantage standing before members of great aristocratic families like Xun Yu and Chen Qun.

In this era, he had lineage, ability, and background; the distinction between branch families and direct lineage wasn't very clear in times of chaos. When everyone had a noble lineage, what mattered was ability. After April, under Chen Xi's planning, Liu Bei would possess the strength to rival any feudal lord of the land, and Chen Xi's status would rise accordingly. Looking down on Chen Qun then would be quite possible.

"You still have two friends!" Fa Zheng instantly snapped back to reality.
