Chapter 63

After dealing with Guo Jia, Lu Bu focused his attention on Xu Shu: "Yuanzhi, would you like to follow me to Jizhou and show your strengths, support the Han Dynasty, the Zhongzhen family, and the Lishu?"

Xu Shu's expression was very entangled: "Xu Shu really wanted to follow the general to Jizhou, but his mother was still there and dared not stay away. Besides, I have been under Mr. Shuijing's door for only a year. If I don't have good academic performance, I may have mislead the general's great cause."[]

Lu Bu heard Xu Shu's words with great reason, and he didn't know how to persuade him at once, and his expression became entangled.

Guo Jia smiled from the side and said, "Yuanzhi, we can bring our mother and Mr. Shui Jing to Jizhou."

Xu Shu frowned: "My mother lives in Yangdi for a long time and does not want to stay away from her hometown. Mr. Shui Jing is also from Yingchuan, so she is afraid she is unwilling to leave her hometown and well."

Guo Jiayao pointed to the city of Luoyang in the distance: "Yuanzhi, if you want to assist the wise ruler to achieve great achievements, how can you not understand the general trend of the world? Now, a wild beast is gathered in the west of Luoyang City, which is the former general and governor of Xiliang Dong Zhuo. This man has a good face and evil intentions and a wolf ambition. He Jin misunderstood Yuan Shao's advice and recruited Dong Zhuo to suppress eunuchs. Dong Zhuo led more than 100,000 troops of Xiliang to Mianchi, and kept his troops still, and sat down to see the situation in Luoyang. He entered the palace and was strangled by the ten eunuchs. Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao and others led the rebellious soldiers into the ban, strangled thousands of eunuchs. Fortunately, Lu Zhenbei arrived in time and saved the empress dowager and the emperor.

With King Chenliu, Fang Bao's country will not decline. Lu Zhenbei was given the title of Guangluxun by the Empress Dowager, and quickly recruited He Jin and He Miao's remnants and the army's troops close to the Ten Generals. When Dong Zhuo learned about this, he did not dare to act rashly. He led a large army to gather the Sunset Pavilion, and did not dare to lead three thousand elite cavalry into Luoyang. Now, Yuan Shao had ulterior motives in Luoyang, and Dong Zhuo was eyeing him. Lu Zhenbei wanted to leave, so he asked the Empress Dowager for the appointment of General Zhenbei and the Governor of Jizhou to stay away from Luoyang's dilemma, avoid disasters in Jizhou, and sit and watch the changes in the capital. Yuan Zhi thought about it carefully. If Dong Zhuo entered the capital, what should the situation in Luoyang be? Can Yingchuan County be safe?"

Xu Shu thought about it carefully, and his face changed drastically: "Dong Zhuo once confronted the commander Zhang Wen in Xiliang, and refused to give the position of the young mansion appointed by the court as the governor of Bingzhou, and refused to hand over the military power to Huangfu Song. Moreover, he led 50,000 mobs from Xiliang to Luoyang, recruited soldiers and horses along the way, and expanded to more than 100,000 people. If he had no intention of having a different ambition, he would not have acted like this. It is a pity that the court's princes could not do anything and actually saw that Dong Zhuo was too impressed. Since Dong Zhuo had a different ambition, he would definitely not be willing to surrender to Yuan Wei, Yuan Shao and others. Yuan's army was insufficient, and there was no way to do anything in Luoyang. Dong Zhuo would leave the capital to meet the princes of Guandong. There were many disciples and former officials of Yuan's family. If Yuan Shao raised his arms and called out, he would definitely respond. At that time, Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao would have a battle, and the war would inevitably spread to Yingchuan, just like the Yellow Turban Rebellion many years ago."

Guo Jia looked sad: "Yuan Zhi, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion many years ago, Ling Zun was killed by the Yellow Turban thieves. Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao's rebellion, how could Yuan Zhi protect Ling Tang? Is it that your sword skills alone, although your sword skills are exquisite, can match dozens of people, hundreds and thousands of people rushed forward, and two fists could not match four hands. The heroes could not resist many people. If Ling Tang had a good time at that time, how should you deal with yourself?"

Xu Shu's face became darker and darker: "Yes, I claim to be excellent in swordsmanship, but a year ago, thirty or forty yamen runners locked me up. If I encounter the Western Liang soldiers, I will find it difficult to resist. What should I do? Feng Xiao teaches me?"

Guo Jia gently patted Xu Shu on the shoulder: "Onstanders clear the authorities and those who are confused, who can help you protect your family are right in front of you, why do you stay away from them?"

Xu Shu looked at Guo Jia blankly: "What do you mean by filial piety?"

Seeing Xu Shu's confused expression, Lu Bu couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Xu Yuanzhi was a pure filial person. When he heard that the safety of the Order Hall was in danger, he was in vain. No wonder in history, when he heard that his mother was captured by Cao Cao, he actually abandoned the wise ruler Liu Bei, who was in his mind at that time, and abandoned his fame and great cause. It seems that parents are their biggest shortcomings for such a filial person. Guo Jia hit Xu Shu's life with one word.

Guo Jia patted Xu Shu's head: "Yuan Zhi, wake up and Lingtang is still safe and sound. Yuan Zhi is not the saying that he wants to find a wise ruler to assist him when the troubled times are approaching, such as Guan Zhong to Duke Huan of Qi, and Jiang Shang to King Wen of Zhou. If Yuan Zhi wins a wise ruler, he will get the wise ruler to help him, why not be afraid of Dong Zhuo's riots."

Xu Shu then heard Guo Jia's meaning clearly, but he was still full of concerns and could not make up his mind to follow Lu Bu.

Lu Bu sighed in his heart. Could it be that this great talent was going to miss his relationship with him? He was unwilling to accept it, so he said, "Yuan Zhi is filial, I admire him very much. I have a poem given to Yuan Zhi. 'The thread in the hand of a loving mother, the clothes on the wandering son. I sew it tightly before leaving, and I am afraid that I will return late. Who said that the heart of a grass can repay the three spring sunshine?' This poem is called "The Song of a Wandering Son". I hope Yuan Zhi will not be a wandering son who wanders around Ren Xia. First, take his mother to temporarily avoid Jizhou, and wait until the world is peaceful, and then serve his mother to Yingchuan. The mother is kind and filial to her, and enjoy the joy of family."

Xu Shu read "The Song of a Wandering Son" twice. When he thought of his old mother who was already gray-haired at home, he couldn't help but shed tears on his face. He was an unfilial son and could no longer make his mother worry about him. Thinking of this, he knelt in front of Lu Bu: "Xu Shu pays homage to Ming Gong. Xu Shu is willing to take his mother to Jizhou, and hope Ming Gong will receive it. Xu Shu is willing to die for the lord, even though he is heartbroken, he will not refuse."

Lu Bu quickly helped Xu Shu up: "Yuanzhi, I want you to live well, for the sake of Lingtang and for all the suffering Han Shu children in the world."

Xu Shu wiped away the tears that were shed from panic and excitement, sorted out his clothes, and asked Lu Bu: "Ming Gong has arranged an errand for Fengxiao. I wonder what arrangements Ming Gong has made for his subordinates?"

Lu Bu smiled slightly and patted Xu Shu on the shoulder: "Fengxiao lost his father since he was young. His stepmother was mean to him. He had no affection for him and had no family affection. He could return to Jizhou immediately. Yuanzhi, you should convince Lingtang to let her go to Jizhou with you. The road was exhausted, and you should travel slowly so that you would not let Lingtang tired. When you arrived in Jizhou, you would start recruiting loyal and upright subordinates from poor and poor families from all over the army, and form an institution called the CIA, referred to as the CIA, which is specifically responsible for internal intelligence supervision. First, supervising the central government's official and aristocratic families behind them. Second, you are supervising all personnel under the jurisdiction of General Zhenbei. You are the governor of the CIA and also serve as the right military advisor to priests and belong to General Zhenbei."

Chen Lin stood aside and asked in confusion: "The general mentioned the General Zhenbei Mansion twice, but the General Zhenbei is not as good as the General, the General of the Cavalry, the General of the Cavalry, and the General of the Four Directions. He cannot be the third duke, and he cannot be able to open the mansion."

Lu Bu smiled confidently and said, "In Luoyang City, General Zhenbei cannot open a prefecture, but in Jizhou, General Zhenbei can open a prefecture. After arriving in Jizhou, the Empress Dowager will issue an imperial decree, allowing me to open a prefecture, Yitong Sansi, Kong Zhang, you can wait and see."

Lu Bu has not yet told Chen Lin, Xu Shu and Guo Jia about protecting the Empress Dowager, the Young Emperor to go to Jizhou. However, it is well known that Lu Bu has made a great contribution to saving the Empress Dowager and the Emperor in recent days. King Chenliu is favored by the Empress Dowager, so Lu Bu said this without blind confidence.

Chen Lin and the other two were infected by Lu Bu's strong confidence and were full of confidence in their common cause.
