Three Kingdoms: Don't Get the Wrong Idea, I'm Really Not a Mastermind

Cao Heng transmigrates to Xu Province at the end of the Eastern Han dynasty, just as Cao Cao sets out to avenge his father.

From the start, he reveals that Zhang Miao will rebel and Cao Cao will have to retreat.

Liu Bei not only refuses to believe him, but drives him out of Xu Province and leaves him to fend for himself.

That big-eared bandit really is a hypocrite who only pretends to be benevolent!

After joining Cao Cao's camp and repeatedly offering brilliant strategies, Cao Heng's name spreads far and wide, and Cao Cao grows very fond of him.

Xun Yu: "When it comes to agriculture, engineering, and water management, I'm but a drop in the ocean compared to Zi'an."

Jia Xu: "When it comes to strategy, I'm not even a hair on the ox compared to Zi'an."

Guo Jia: "When it comes to ingenuity, I'm utterly insignificant compared to Zi'an."

Xun You: "Stop it. I'm really not a strategist. Zi'an is the only one who can fill that role..."

Cao Cao: "Zi'an is also surnamed Cao. Are you perhaps a member of my clan?!"

Cao Heng smiled and shook his head. "My lord and I aren't related."

Cao Cao gave him a mysterious smile. "We soon will be... Pick one: Jie'er, Xian'er, or Hua'er..."
