Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

The letter was quickly sent out from Fancheng, and arrived in Xinye in less than a day.

When Xu Shu received the letter, he frowned, because the content of the letter stated that his mother had been taken to Fancheng by Cao Ang.

You don't need to read on, just this point, Xu Shu can already think of what to write later.

However, he continued to read, probably writing about Cao Ang's integrity and Liu Bei's hypocrisy.

At the end of the letter, Cao Ang asked someone to write directly, if Xu Shu didn't come, Xu's mother would die, you can figure it out yourself!

Of course, these words were all written in Xu's mother's tone. Xu Shu's first impression was that Xu's mother wanted him to surrender to Cao Ang. If he didn't come, Xu's mother felt that he was going to die.

"Cao Ang, if you dare to hurt my mother, I will die with you!"

Xu Shu roared angrily, and hurriedly sent someone to investigate the matter, he wanted to know whether Xu's mother was really not there.

This investigation, in the blink of an eye, another few days passed.

The people who went to Yingchuan finally rushed back to Xinye, told Xu Shu that his mother was really absent, and were picked up by Cao Ang's men.

"Cao Ang!"

Xu Shu shouted the name angrily.

How could he not know what Cao Ang and the others were trying to do.

When his mother was arrested, Xu Shu couldn't calm down. After hesitating to the end, he decided to go to Liu Bei and tell Liu Bei about it.

"What, this... Cao Ang is so hateful!"

Liu Bei slammed his hands on the table and stood up. Soon his tone regained his composure, and he said, "Yuan Zhi, what are you going to do?"

Xu Shu cupped his hands and bowed, and said: "Thanks to my lord, I also hope to help you all the time. But my mother's life is already in Cao Ang's hands. If I don't go, my mother's life is in danger. This time, I'm here to say goodbye. In the future If there is still a chance, I will definitely come to seek refuge again to repay the kindness of the lord.”

He really decided to leave him, Liu Bei froze for a moment, then frowned.

Later, he unexpectedly found that he was not worried at all because Xu Shu was going to leave, as if it didn't matter whether Xu Shu was around or not.

After Xu Shu took refuge, he was useless except to capture Wancheng and make some achievements.

The last time Xu Shu asked Zhao Yun to attack Fancheng, he was ambushed and attacked by a weapon that could make loud noises and sparks, but he didn't know what it was.

In the end, Liu Pi died outside the gate of Fancheng, Liu Feng was injured, Zhao Yun had to retreat, and lost many people.

Xu Shu agreed to ambush Cao Ang who came to attack the camp, but was finally ambushed by Guan Yu in turn.

After doing this several times, Liu Bei, who was already a bit shabby, made things worse.

Liu Bei once wondered whether Mr. Shui Jing recommended the wrong person. How could he recommend someone like Xu Shu who knows nothing and even made him lose the battle?

If Xu Shu left, he really wouldn't regret it. What he was worried about was that Xu Shu knew so many things about him, so he suddenly left to join Cao Ang, which made him a little nervous, that's all.

In fact, Xu Shu's failure was not his fault, it was because Chen Yang was too powerful, Liu Bei didn't expect this.

"Yuan Zhi, I'm afraid this is also Chen Yang's trick, don't be careless." Liu Bei said.

"Even if it's really a trick, I'll admit it."

Xu Shu sighed and said: "My mother has an accident, no matter how dangerous Fancheng is, I will definitely go to save her, I have made up my mind."

"Yuan Zhi is so filial, it makes me ashamed!"

Although Liu Bei didn't think it was a pity, he still had to pretend to be distressed. This kind of hypocrisy is already his instinct, and he continued: "Yuanzhi will go here. The next time we meet, we may be on the battlefield. I don't want to hate me." You can't protect the old lady comprehensively."

Hearing his sincere words, Xu Shu said gratefully: "Before I leave, I would like to recommend someone to my lord. Only this person can be far above me, and can help my lord to rule the world and achieve hegemony!"

"who is it?"

Liu Bei asked impatiently, but then he thought again, Xu Shu was nothing more than that, and the person he recommended should not be much better.

"This man's name is Zhuge Liang, his style name is Kongming, and he lives in Longzhong, twenty miles outside Xiangyang City."

Xu Shu said: "Zhuge Kongming is far superior to me. If my lord can invite him back, great things will be achieved."

"Zhuge Kongming?"

Liu Bei had never heard of this person before, so he shook his head slightly, and asked again: "Mr. Shui Jing once told me that Wolongfengchu, two people get one, and the world will be safe. How does Kong Ming compare with Wolongphoenixchu?"

Xu Shu said: "It turns out that my lord has heard of Wolong and Fengchu. In fact, Wolong is Zhuge Kongming, and Fengchu is Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan. They are also in Xiangyang at this moment."

"really?"

Liu Bei said in surprise, "That Zhuge Kongming is really Mr. Wolong?"

Unexpectedly, Wolong and Phoenix are all near him, and Xinye is not far from Xiangyang. He has never heard of those two people.

However, with Sima Hui's recommendation and Xu Shu's self-awareness, Liu Bei felt that Zhuge Kongming should be truly powerful, and such a powerful person must be recruited.

Xu Shu nodded slightly: "That's right, after I leave, the lord can invite him back, but talented people are always arrogant, the lord has to condescend to invite him."

Liu Bei suppressed the excitement on his face and sighed, "Yuan Zhi, when do you plan to leave?"

"My mother's fate is unknown, and I can't calm down in Xinye. I decided to leave later and go to Fancheng as soon as possible."

Xu Shu said and bowed again: "After I leave, I will never be an enemy of the lord, please rest assured, the lord."

In the future, everyone is their own master, no matter what happens, Liu Bei can't be sure, so he doesn't believe Xu Shu's words at all.

"I'll send Yuan Zhi away." Liu Bei said again.

In the afternoon, Xu Shu packed up his things. He didn't intend to disturb Liu Bei and left alone.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked near the city gate, he saw Liu Bei waiting for him here.

"Lord!"

Xu Shu burst into tears of gratitude, and said: "If I can leave Cao Ying, I will definitely come back and join the Lord."

After crying for a while, Xu Shu rode his horse out of Xinye, but turned back frequently, reluctant to part.

"My lord, Yuanzhi has been in Xinye for so long and knows everything about us. If we let him go like this, I'm afraid something bad will happen!"

A general named Sun Qian beside him said worriedly.

He was the one who recovered after Liu Bei came to Jingzhou.

Liu Bei said with a straight face: "If we leave Xu Shu behind, how can I do such a thing?"

After hearing his words, everyone sighed at Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness.

"Where's Yide? Why isn't he here?"

At this time, Jian Yong, another general who was recovered by Liu Bei, murmured.

"I have other things, let Yide take care of it." Liu Bei explained casually.

Next, he prepared to meet that Zhuge Kongming.

But before going to Zhuge Liang, he had to go to Jingzhou. Without Liu Biao's help, he was worried that he would not be able to keep Xinye.

"I have Kong Ming, why do I need your assistance, Xu Yuanzhi?"

Liu Bei thought coldly, "Chen Yang, wait for me!"

Besides, Xu Shu was far away from Xinye, he didn't dare to neglect for a moment, he only hoped to see his mother as soon as possible, and galloped along the way.

Suddenly, he dismounted from his horse and neighed.
