Chapter 195 Game Theory
"Third Brother, Young Master Wu is still waiting."
Seeing that the two were so engrossed in their conversation, Tao Yang, who was ahead, called out to remind them.
Upon hearing this, Tao You turned around and saw Tao Yang holding the reins and waiting for him. His white horse snorted and neighed from time to time, seemingly getting impatient as well.
Guo Yu was quite understanding and said, "Third Master, please go ahead. I also have official duties to attend to."
Tao You nodded, cupped his hands in farewell, and turned his horse to ride towards Tao Yang.
Guo Yu watched Tao You's retreating figure, a meaningful smile appearing on his lips. He then turned his horse around and spurred it to chase after Shen Qing.
"drive--"
In the open area of the western suburbs, the Wu family had enclosed a horse farm, and from a distance, one could see the fence and several newly erected sheds.
"Shichiro!"
A handsome young man sat astride a chestnut horse, waving his cane at Tao Yang and his companions.
He wore a black turban and a short, narrow-sleeved robe with a cross-collar made of moon-white Shu brocade. The dark patterns were faintly visible, and the cuffs were tied with indigo brocade ribbons. He wore a two-piece armor with plates made of fine iron. The armor was decorated with intricate cloud patterns outlined in gold thread, which complemented the leather shoulder straps.
A rhinoceros horn belt was tied around his waist, and he carried an intricately carved dagger, the gems on the scabbard gleaming in the sunlight.
He wore bright red wide-leg trousers, a striking and eye-catching color, and black knee-high leather boots. Even the saddle was inlaid with gemstones, and the reins were made of the finest leather.
Even if they are hidden in a crowd, they are still noticeable at first glance, like Shen Qing, who is currently observing from a secluded spot on high ground.
So fat!
They can be slaughtered!
Two thoughts popped into Shen Qing's mind in quick succession.
Your plan to sow discord and turn people against you is rather simplistic and crude.
A long-lost voice echoed in her mind. Shen Qing was slightly startled before replying, "Yo~ You're still alive, System."
[...] 9527 decided not to stoop to the level of a carbon-based life form. It silently observed Shen Qing's plan and, to avoid being embarrassed, only popped out to offer its critique at the final moment of the operation.
I'm not trying to discourage you, I'm just stating the facts: your strategy is utter garbage!
Shen Qing raised an eyebrow, "What brilliant idea does the Commander-in-Chief have?"
9527 was somewhat smug. [Those involved are often blinded by their own circumstances. Tao You might not see things clearly now, but once you finally reveal your true intentions, he'll definitely realize what's going on!]
"Hmm~ So?"
Who would betray their country and family to help someone who plotted against them?
"Ha," Shen Qing chuckled, "That's why I've always said, 'Master, you don't understand people's hearts.'"
9527, unwilling to be looked down upon for its intelligence by a lower life form, provocatively asked, "Since you're so confident, how about we take another bet?"
Shen Qing curled her lip, "What do you, a penniless wretch, have to offer now?"
How dare you say that! Who gave you all this credit? Even a broken ship has three pounds of nails; 9527 will defend the dignity of its senior system to the death!
Aren't you confident you can succeed? Then you'll definitely need "The Complete Guide to Ancient Blacksmithing Techniques," how about it?
"You pimp, and you even have reference books for running a business?"
[...The needs of the targets are also quite diverse, right?]
"...The service was pretty good, huh?"
Same rules as always, if you lose, you're tied to me. Want to bet?
Shen Qing shrugged. "Sure."
9527 suppressed its excitement; it didn't care whether it could win this round or not, it was just nurturing a gambler.
Shen Qing is impervious to both gentle persuasion and force. This is a highly feasible plan that it has long observed and pondered: keep throwing out bait, get Shen Qing used to gambling with it, and with enough practice, even if it's unlucky and loses nine out of ten times, just one win will be enough to turn things around. Then... hehehehehe~
The system's original intention remained unchanged from beginning to end, and Shen Qing could only afford to pay one price.
Shen Qing seemed oblivious to the system's secret delight, treating the bet as just a casual conversation and quickly putting it out of his mind, focusing intently on the horse racing track below.
