Regarding Xu Shu's farewell, Liu Bei was somewhat unsure of what he meant. If someone just invited Xu Shu, he would obviously have to be so hesitant. And if that was the case, Liu Bei would still be happy for Xu Shu to go out. After all, Xu Shu's friends are all literati, and they are all talents.
But now Xu Shu's performance is obviously not as simple as traveling far away. Xu Shu is hesitant, which proves that he doesn't know how to speak to himself. Since he doesn't know how to speak, this matter is obviously of great importance. At this moment, Liu Bei vaguely felt that what Xu Shu said should not be beneficial to him.
"My lord, do you know that I still have an old mother?" Xu Shu did not answer Liu Bei's question directly. Instead, he asked Liu Bei a rhetorical question. Xu Shu's rhetorical question made Liu Bei slightly stunned, but Liu Bei quickly recovered and nodded slightly.
Xu Shu still has an old mother alive and Liu Bei knows it. After all, Xu Shu has followed Liu Bei for so long. If Liu Bei doesn't know about this, then he, as the lord, has really neglected his duty. If he can't understand Xu Shu's life experience, how can he communicate with Xu Shu? [
Liu Bei knew that Xu Shu was a filial son. As for Xu Shu's life experience, Liu Bei also knew it quite well. However, the only thing Liu Bei didn't know was that the savior Xu Shu said saved his life was Zhao Fei. If Liu Bei knew about this, Xu Shu would probably not be able to serve Liu Bei. under his command
When Liu Bei knew that Xu Shu's mother was still alive, he also thought about taking Xu Shu's mother over so that Xu Shu could reunite with her mother's family. However, thinking that he did not have a place to settle down, how could he possibly be able to take care of Xu Shu's mother?
To be honest, Liu Bei is quite grateful to Xu Shu at this point. If this happened to him, Liu Bei would definitely not give up the opportunity to reunite with his mother and wander around. Because Liu Bei also traveled for a long time and knew that the feeling of lovesickness is very torturous. of
Since Liu Bei knew Xu Shu's life experience, he also knew Xu Shu's background. When he thought about it, Liu Bei suddenly realized a lot. Cao Jun's actions were really killing him. He didn't give himself any chance to turn around. Now Cao Jun's situation has just begun to improve. The butcher knife strikes again
At this moment, Liu Bei obviously didn't know how to describe his feelings. He was extremely reluctant to let go of Xu Shu. Although he was not at the end of his rope, he had obviously stepped into the abyss with one foot. After all, he already had people around him who could be used.
In terms of generals, I still have Guan Yu and Chen Guo to stabilize the morale of the army. However, in terms of counselors, except Xu Shu, I really don’t have anyone to count on. Jingxiang has a lot of talents and a popular literary style, but I have never seen anyone in Xinye for so long. Come to serve me. In the final analysis, I still have insufficient strength. If I had more than just Xinye, I would never be in such a predicament.
I have had enough of the pain of not having an adviser around me. Although Xu Shu was a little immature before, he is now able to strategize. Not to mention the fact that Xu Shu commanded the soldiers to defeat Zhao Fei can show how much Xu Shu has grown. He has been able to take charge of his own affairs and will receive courtesy wherever he goes. But now such a talent wants to leave him.
The more he thought about it, the more confused Liu Bei became. Obviously, Liu Bei was at a loss at this moment. This also made Liu Bei not respond to Xu Shu's question for such a long time. Xu Shu obviously had no intention of disturbing Liu Bei. After all, Liu Bei was also a smart man.
Liu Bei gradually came back to his senses. He looked at Xu Shu, nodded slightly and said, "Is this natural? Could it be that there was an accident with my aunt?" Liu Bei was obviously still unwilling to give up. He obviously still had some luck in his heart. If it was true, If this is the case, then Liu Bei must not be worried
After all, if that's the case, there shouldn't be any problem if Xu Shu goes quietly. After all, although Yingchuan is the residence of Cao Jun, it is not a place that cannot be visited. As long as you are careful, not to mention Xinye, even Xuchang can go there. I'm afraid it's not just an accident. But it comes from the threat from Cao Jun
Although Xu Shu defeated Cao Jun and Zhao Fei, it was not easy, but it also made Xu Shu's name well-known to everyone. After all, Zhao Fei represents the myth of invincibility, and Xu Shu ended Zhao Fei's myth.
In the past, Cao Jun probably didn't know that there was a person like Xu Shu, so naturally no one threatened Xu Shu with a dying old man. But now that Xu Shu has defeated Zhao Fei, it fully proves that Xu Shu is indeed very talented. Either he has such a person for himself. Or destroy it
At this time, Xu Shu has become a threat to Cao Jun, so Cao Jun will definitely try every means to get rid of this person. With the strength of Cao Jun, it is obviously very easy to find out what kind of person Xu Shu is. It is obviously very easy to find out Xu Shu's life experience and follow the clues to find Xu Shu's It is obviously impossible for the mother
Thinking of this, Liu Bei let out a long sigh. At this moment, he was very confused. If Xu Shu really proposed to leave him, should he be generous and let Liu Bei leave or should he keep him? Or...
Liu Bei's sudden expression made Xu Shu frown slightly. Although it was only for a moment, how could Xu Shu, who had been following Liu Bei for so long, not know what Liu Bei's little gesture meant? Liu Bei was really affectionate, after all, he had not yet Decided but he already had murderous intentions
Xu Shu sighed slightly in his heart and then said in a deep voice: "Cao Jun sent an envoy to see me. He threatened my mother's life to let me return to Yingchuan. Although Shu couldn't bear to leave the main attack, he couldn't bear that my mother would be harmed because of me."
"Everyone says that I am a filial son, but I don't think so. I have done nothing filial for a long time except to make my mother worry. If my mother is really hurt because of me, then I, as a son, will have no shame in continuing to live." At this point, Xu Shu's originally calm face became extremely excited. These words had been buried in his heart for a long time. His friends all praised him as a filial son, but where was his filial piety?
Hearing what Xu Shu said, Liu Bei's body also trembled. He hoped that it was just an accident, but the truth is often so cruel. The more he didn't want something to happen, it would often happen, leaving Liu Bei with no ability to save it.
Filial piety comes first. If a person wants to fulfill his filial piety, can he stop it? Obviously this is impossible. If he really stops it, what will the people in the world think of him? He is famous for his benevolence and righteousness and has achieved the name of filial piety. If so, the reputation he has worked so hard to accumulate will be gone in name only. Liu Bei obviously does not want to give up the reputation he has worked so hard to accumulate [
Xu Shu took a deep breath and then said: "Cao Jun said that if I continue to stay in Xinye, my mother's life will be safe. I don't want my mother to suffer because of me, so I came here to say goodbye to the main attack."
Liu Bei sighed slightly. There was obviously no room for maneuver in this matter. If Xu Shu had not already made a decision, how could he come to say goodbye to him? Since Xu Shu had already decided, this could not be solved by his own consolation.
At this time, Liu Bei was hesitating whether he should let Xu Shu leave or not. Xu Shu knew him very well, whether it was his character or the deployment of Xinye City. Xu Shu knew everything clearly. If Xu Shu sincerely surrendered to Cao Jun and went against him, he would have to Lose doubt
Not to mention anything else, Liu Bei didn't want to let Xu Shu leave just because of this, but he still said that if he didn't let his name of benevolence and righteousness go, it would be gone. After all, Xu Shu's unwillingness to leave and himself not letting Xu Shu leave are two completely different concepts.
Liu Bei pondered for a moment and then said in a deep voice: "Yuan Zhi puts filial piety first, how can I stop him? Since Yuan Zhi wants to leave, just leave." Although Liu Bei said it very coolly, his heart was bleeding.
"I don't know if I will see my lord again in the future. I hope you take care of yourself." After saying that, Xu Shu turned around and left. At this moment, he had to become hard-hearted. After all, he might stay if he couldn't bear it. No matter what, for the sake of his mother, Xu Shu would never do it. Leave
Watching Xu Shu leave, Liu Bei's heart seemed to be in turmoil. He hoped that Xu Shu would not leave, but Xu Shu left without looking back. It was the time when he needed talents, but Xu Shu left at such an important moment.
Suddenly Xu Shu stopped for a moment, and when he saw Xu Shu's action, Liu Bei's heart started to rise again. Could it be that Xu Shu knew that he was ashamed of himself, so he decided to stay. If that was the case, that would be great.
Xu Shu turned his head and walked towards Liu Bei. This made Liu Bei's face gradually turn rosy. He came to Liu Bei and Xu Shu said in a deep voice: "There is one more thing I forgot to tell my lord. After I leave, my lord will have someone by his side who can make plans."
"I can't bear that my lord is like this, so I specially recommend someone to my lord. This person's surname is Zhuge, his given name is Liang, and his courtesy name is Kong Ming. This person is a good friend of mine and we are currently living in seclusion in Wollongong, Nanyang. This person's intelligence is ten times higher. I compared him to Guan Zhong and Le Yi." It’s not inferior. If you can ask Kong Ming to come out to assist the lord, the lord will be even more powerful. Even if Xu Shu leaves, he can feel at ease."
Xu Shu's words made Liu Bei somewhat disappointed. He thought Xu Shu would stay, but he finally chose to leave. However, what is gratifying is that Xu Shu has found someone who can replace him.
But there is obviously uncertainty during this period. After all, it depends on yourself whether you can ask Zhuge Liang to come out. Even though Zhuge Liang is very talented, how can he use it better than Xu Shu?
"I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. If I am still under the master's command, the master may not be able to ask Kong Ming to come out. But if I leave the master, there is a great chance that I can ask Kong Ming to come out."
