The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 216 Changing Time and Space, Xu Shu Still Difficult to Change His Fate

After repeated fierce battles, Zhang He had many soldiers, but he suffered repeated defeats, losing troops and generals.

As a last resort, we had to defend Xinye, hang up the no-war sign, and send people to Shouchun to ask for advice.

Cheng Yuanzhi was discussing matters with the generals in the big tent along the river when he suddenly saw the Xinye envoy arrive and submit the battle report.

After a while, Cheng Yuanzhi held the battle report and asked the crowd:
"Today Zhang Hesi has 10 troops, but he can't fight Liu Bei. This newspaper said: Liu Bei has a new army division. He is good at fighting on foot, horse and formation, and he is very good at it. Do you have a good strategy? Of?"

Cheng Yuanzhi asked this question knowingly, how to deal with Xu Shu, the original time and space had already given the answer.

But as the lord, he can't show omnipotence. In order to fully mobilize the enthusiasm and brains of his subordinates, he can only pretend that he doesn't know and ask for advice.

Guo Jia took the battle report, read it at a glance, smiled slightly, and handed it to Cheng Yu.

After reading the battle report, Cheng Yu said with a smile, "Prime Minister, don't worry, this matter is not difficult. I recognize Xu Shu from Yingchuan."

Cheng Yuanzhi smiled secretly, but said, "Oh? How is Xu Shu's talent better than yours?"

Cheng Yu said: "Ten times stronger than Yu."

"How to make it?"

Cheng Yu laughed and said: "Although Xu Shu is there, the prime minister wants to use it, but it's not difficult to summon him."

Cheng Yuanzhi showed joy on his face: "Tell me in detail!"

Cheng Yudao: "Xu Shu is extremely filial. He lost his father when he was young, and only his mother was in the hall. Now his younger brother Xu Kang is dead, and his mother has no one to take care of him. The prime minister can have his mother taken to Xudu, so that he can write a letter to call his son. , then Xu Shu will come."

Cheng Yuanzhi nodded, and ordered Xingye to go to Yingchuan to pick up Xu's mother.After more than a day on the road, he brought Xu's mother to Xudu.

It coincided with the intense war in Jiangdong, in the middle of a tug-of-war, the northern army had occupied the entire Wu County and dozens of cities in the northern part of Danyang County, and the next battle would be a protracted battle, offensive and defensive battle.

The next thing to compete is military strength and national strength.

There is no need to sit in town all the time.

Cheng Yuanzhi then sneaked back to Xudu to see Xu's mother.

After Xu's mother arrived in Xudu, the treatment was quite generous.

On this day, Cheng Yuanzhi personally visited the house. After the two parties met, he said to Xu's mother, "I heard that your son, Xu Yuanzhi, is a genius in the world. Now in Xinye, helping Liu Bei, the rebellious minister, and betraying the imperial court is like a beautiful jade falling into the mud. It's a pity sincerely. I would like to ask my aunt to write a letter and call her back to Xudu. I will guarantee the memorial before the emperor comes. I will grant you an official title and you will be rewarded heavily."

After all, he waved his hands and ordered his left and right to hold the four treasures of the study, so that Xu's mother could write books.

Xu's mother was a very assertive person, but when she heard the words, she asked, "Who is Liu Bei?"

Cheng Yuanzhi said: "After King Jing of Zhongshan in the Western Han Dynasty, the people who weaved mats and sold shoes in Zhuo County were rebels."

This is the truth. Xu's mother had no way to refute it. She just glared and said: "Although I am an old woman in the village, I have heard for a long time that Liu Bei bowed down and treated others with respect. You are a hero, my son will assist you, and you are the master. Although you have claimed the name of a Han prime minister, you are actually a traitor of the Han. Why are you defaming Liu Bei and becoming a rebellious minister, and now you want to make my son turn his back on the dark? Don’t you feel ashamed! "

After saying that, he raised his hand and grabbed the stone inkstone and threw it towards Cheng Yuanzhi, then went back to the room angrily.

Cheng Yu hastily persuaded: "Mother Xu wanted to die when she disobeyed the Prime Minister. If the Prime Minister killed him, it would incur a reputation of injustice, and secondly, it would hit Xu's mother's arms and achieve her virtue. If Xu's mother dies, then Xu Shu must die. Help Liu Bei with your heart; it is better to keep Xu Shu here, so that Xu Shu's body and mind are separated.


Cheng Yuanzhi waved his hands and said with a smile: "I am not angry, why are you so flustered?"

Cheng Yu was startled: "The prime minister is not angry?"

It shouldn't be. Anyone who is thrown a stone by a village woman will be annoyed. Why isn't the prime minister annoyed?
My stomach is far beyond your imagination... Cheng Yuanzhi smiled and said, "I already know all about your plan. Although it is a clever plan, there is still a flaw."

Cheng Yu was taken aback again, "Where is the mistake?"

Cheng Yuanzhi smiled but didn't answer, he just asked Cheng Yu to act according to the plan.

Two days later, seeing Xu's mother's anger subsided, she paid a grand visit again.

As the saying goes, don't hit anyone with a smiling face. Cheng Yuanzhi firstly did not massacre the city, secondly did not deceive the emperor, thirdly, he treated the people very well, and fourthly, he was very kind to Xu's mother. He fulfilled all the requirements.She was embarrassed to turn people away.

Entering the room, Cheng Yuanzhi cupped his hands and said, "Aunt, although I like Yuan Zhi's talent, I don't want to force others to do anything. I came today because I want to reconcile with my aunt."

Mother Xu snorted coldly, but said nothing.

Cheng Yuanzhi didn't care about this attitude at all, and said to himself: "Auntie thinks, how is the people's livelihood in Kyushu under my jurisdiction? Can it be regarded as a prosperous country and a safe people?"

Hearing this, Xu's mother's attitude was a little slow, but she still kept a cold face.

Cheng Yuanzhi continued: "I believe that I am worthy of the emperor above and the people below. During the fifteen years of fighting, I did not massacre the city, disturb the people, and bully the weak. Why would my aunt think that I am a traitor?"

After hearing this, Mother Xu's face softened, but she still said: "Everyone in the world knows that you are unparalleled in eloquence, and I will not reason with you."

Cheng Yuanzhi shook his head and laughed, "Well, how about I make a bet with my aunt today?"

"Although I love Yuan Zhi's talent, I don't want to force others to make things difficult. How about it, if Yuan Zhi votes by himself within a month, I will win. Auntie has to promise me something."

Mother Xu glanced over and said coldly, "What if my son hasn't arrived yet?"

Cheng Yuanzhi waved his hand: "I will offer a thousand pieces of gold, let my aunt go or stay as she pleases, if she stays, I will treat her as an elder; if she leaves, I will send her off as a distinguished guest!"

Mother Xu said in surprise, "Is this true?"

With a confident face, Cheng Yuanzhi said seriously: "I have nothing to say, Auntie can go to Xuchang City to find out who I am."

Mother Xu patted her thigh, "That's a deal."

Cheng Yuanzhi bid farewell and left, leaving Xu's mother in another room.

As soon as Cheng Yuanzhi left, Cheng Yu arrived on the back. He greeted Xu's mother every day, pretending that he and Xu Shu were sworn brothers, and treated Xu's mother like his own mother;

Xu's mother also wrote a handwritten thank you.

After going back and forth like this a few times, Cheng Yu earned Xu's mother's handwriting, imitating her handwriting, and fraudulently repaired a family letter. He sent a confidant to Xinye County with the book, looking for Xu Shu.

The sergeant brought people to Xu Shu.

Xu Shu heard that his mother had a letter from home, so he hurriedly called in and asked, "Where is my mother now?"

The visitor said: "I am in Xudu. I am a pawn in the library. I am ordering by the old lady to send letters here."

Xu Shu took the letter, opened it and read it, and saw that it said:

"Recently, your younger brother Xu Kangxin lost his family, and he has no relatives. In the midst of grief, Prime Minister Yuan sent someone to Xuchang, saying that you had rebelled against me, and sent me to prison. Cheng Yu and others pleaded for mercy, and I was saved. If you come down , can save me from death; if you don't surrender, you will be doomed. When this book is up to the day, the son can remember the kindness of his mother's upbringing, and come to Xudu at starry night to show full filial piety; then Xu Tu returns to his hometown to avoid being bullied Misfortune. My life is hanging by a thread, and I only hope for rescue! Not to mention more."


After Xu Shu finished reading, tears burst into tears instantly.He came to see Liu Bei with a book, and cried: "In the past, I pretended to sing madly in the market to move the king. Fortunately, I did not abandon it, and I gave it to me. I am very grateful. But now my mother was imprisoned by Yuan She's treacherous tricks and was imprisoned in Xudu, and her life was hanging by a thread. .My old mother came to call me with a handwritten letter, and I will not allow my concubine to refuse to go. Now let me let you bid farewell to the envoy, with the utmost filial piety, and hope to see you again."

Liu Bei was shocked when he heard the words, and said with tears in his eyes: "It is only natural for a son to be filial to his mother. Yuan Zhi does not need to be ashamed. After meeting the old lady, he may be taught again."

Xu Shu bowed deeply and apologized, and after thanking him, he was about to leave for Xudu.

Liu Bei held his hand and said, "We're leaving today. I don't know when we'll see each other again. I'm begging to meet again for one night. How about a farewell party tomorrow?"

Xu Shu nodded, then retreated and packed his bags.

After Xu Shu left, Sun Qian stood by and said: "Yuan Zhi is a genius in the world. He has been in Xinye for a long time and knows the truth and weakness of our army. If the envoy returns to Xudu now, he will be reused. If so, I will be in danger. I hope my lord Keep him here, don't let him go. Yuan She will kill his mother when he sees that Yuan Zhi won't go. Yuan Zhi knows that his mother is dead, so he will avenge his mother. Attack Yuan She with all his strength."

Good guy, this idea is really bad. If Xu Shu is so easy to fool, how can he be called a genius in the world?
To this day, Liu Bei suddenly felt that Mr. Shui Jing's words about Sun Qian were very appropriate, he was also a "white-faced scholar".

Now, this white-faced scholar actually wants to plot against Xu Shu, a genius in the world?
I'm afraid that as soon as you stick your butt, Xu Shu will immediately see all your plans.

Knowing that you have ulterior motives, will he do anything to help you?

Dream it!

Liu Bei glanced at Sun Gan expressionlessly, waved his hands and said: "No! I use his son, but let people kill his mother, it is not kind; it is unrighteous to force him to stay and not let people go, so as to cut off the way of his son and mother." Also. I'd rather die than do something inhumane."

When everyone heard the words, they all sighed that Liu Bei was unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness.

Liu Bei nodded slightly, although he was sad that the talent left, but he was also a little bit proud.

Despite repeated battles and defeats, the only counselor had to leave him.

However, in the dust, in the twilight, Liu Bei seemed to see a pair of successful hands waving towards him vigorously.

Those are the invincible hands of the benevolent...
