Liu Yu was too enthusiastic. To outsiders, their parting did not seem like they were old friends who had just known each other for a short while, but more like they were old friends who had known each other for many years.

After another ten miles, Liu Yu still had no intention of letting go of his hand. Seeing the reluctance in Liu Yu's eyes, Xu Shu was somewhat moved.

Uncle, you are so humble that you think so highly of me. If I insist on leaving...

Xu Shu, who had originally determined to join Yuan Shao, began to waver in his decision.

"Uncle Royal is so kind and righteous, I am deeply grateful. It is getting late, please go back."

Xu Shu was very conflicted. He was a little worried that if Liu Yu sent him away again, he would give up his previous considerations and follow Liu Yu regardless of everything.

Liu Yu had been observing Xu Shu since he left Mr. Shuijing's residence. His expression had changed from being calm and composed at the beginning to being hesitant.

Liu Yu secretly calculated in his mind and knew that his plan had already taken effect.

After all, he had read the book "How to Cultivate an Actor", and Liu Yu's eyes were filled with tears in an instant.

A slightly choked voice sounded in Xu Shu's ears.

"Even though I've sent you a thousand miles away, we'll have to say goodbye eventually. Since Yuanzhi wants to leave sooner, I'll go back."

After saying that, Liu Yu reluctantly let go of Xu Shu's hand.

Starting from Yingchuan, Xu Shu finally took back the initiative with this hand.

Xu Shu saluted.

Liu Yu took down the long sword beside him and put it in Xu Shu's hand.

"Yuanzhi, this sword was given by the emperor. It may look thin, but it is extremely sharp. The journey to Jizhou is not peaceful, so Yuanzhi can use it for self-defense."

"Uncle, you must not do this. With such a great gift, how can I dare to wear this sword?"

"A sword is given to a hero, and Yuanzhi is a hero of our time. This sword should be given to Yuanzhi."

Xu Shu refused, but Liu Yu did not agree. Xu Shu had no choice but to accept it.

He was about to get on the horse when Liu Yu pulled his hand and said slowly, "Yuanzhi, your horse is too skinny and not suitable for long journeys."

Liu Yu pointed to his horse and continued, "This horse was captured during the battle between me and Dong Zhuo. Although it is not as good as the Red Hare, it is also a rare and excellent horse. Yuan Zhi can ride this horse to Jizhou and find Yuan Shao in two or three days."

Xu Shu traveled around the world for many years with a long sword on his back, and developed the ability to identify horses.

Xu Shu had seen many famous horses in the world. From the first moment he saw this horse, he knew it was extraordinary.

This horse has a strong body, long legs, shiny coat and bright eyes, all the characteristics of a good horse.

Even if this horse cannot run a thousand miles a day, it is still possible to run eight hundred miles.

"Uncle, you must not do that. This horse is so valuable that you must accept it without merit."

"Yuanzhi is wrong. If you hadn't told me about the three chaos and three difficulties in Luoyang City, I would still be in the dark. If Dong Zhuo sends troops to attack us in the future, we will all die without a burial place."

"So Yuanzhi is our savior."

"Yuanzhi saved my life. Let alone this horse, even if Red Hare was in my hands, I would give it to Yuanzhi without hesitation."

Xu Shu's eyes turned slightly red, he had not expected that Liu Yu actually valued him so much, not only did he accompany him for ten miles after ten miles, but also gave him a sword and a BMW as a gift.

Liu Yu saw Xu Shu's emotion. He let go of Xu Shu's hand, bowed and said, "Yuanzhi, it's getting late. Hurry up and get on your horse and hurry up."

After Xu Shu saluted, he mounted his horse.

"Uncle, let's say goodbye now. See you later."

"Take care, Yuanzhi."

The sound of horse hooves rang out on the official road.

Liu Yu looked at Xu Shu's back as he walked away, and thought to himself that his hard work just now had made Xu Shu feel pressured and had also increased his expectations of his lord.

He was treated so respectfully by himself, so of course he hoped to get the same treatment from Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao had many advisers, and even if Xu Shu went to Yuan Shao, he would not be valued so highly.

When this difference becomes apparent, Xu Shu will certainly be filled with a sense of loss deep in his heart. When the sense of loss reaches a certain level, Xu Shu will leave Yuan Shao.

Liu Yu had a smile in his eyes. He believed that Xu Shu would come to him in the near future.

After returning, Xu Shu will certainly devote himself to planning for himself. The reason is very simple. After he has raised his standards, none of the princes can match him. Who else can he find if not himself?

Liu Yu was just about to ask Chen Dao to leave when he vaguely heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance.

"Uncle Zhi, go chop down the trees on the roadside."

Chen Dao was a little confused. Why did the emperor's uncle ask him to chop down trees for no reason?

Since Liu Yu had given the order, Chen Dao did not dare to hesitate. He picked up his sword and rushed towards the tree.

This was the scene Xu Shu saw when he returned on horseback.

Liu Yu turned his back and wiped his tears with his hands, pretending not to see Xu Shu.

"Shuzhi cut down all these trees." There was a hint of resentment in Liu Yu's words.

Xu Shu looked at Chen Dao's behavior and listened to Liu Yu's words. Even though he was a resourceful man, he didn't understand what Liu Yu meant for a moment.

This tree grows quietly by the roadside, motionless, and will not cause any trouble to the emperor's uncle. I don't know why he is so angry.

"Uncle, why did you let me cut down the tree?"

Liu Yu turned around, looked at Xu Shu who had returned, and said slowly: "Because the tree blocked my view of Yuan Zhi."

After hearing this, Xu Shu could no longer resist and knelt down on the spot.

"I am so honored by your high regard. I wish to follow you back to Luoyang and serve you from now on."

Liu Yu was overjoyed and hurried forward to help Xu Shu up.

"With Yuan Zhi's help, I will surely accomplish my great cause of supporting the Han Dynasty."

"Lord."

Liu Yu held Xu Shu's hand and laughed out loud.

If I get Xu Shu, my great cause will be accomplished, and the people and the world will be fortunate.

Xu Shu also laughed, and his laughter was full of heroism.

Having such a lord, I feel that my life is not in vain. Even if it is difficult, I will not be afraid.

Liu Yu looked at the smile in Xu Shu's eyes and knew that he had been completely conquered by him.

In Xu Shu, he saw a spirit of this era, a spirit that originated from the Spring and Autumn Period, and this spirit was the spirit of scholars.

Observe etiquette, integrity, rules, and be committed to the Tao.

Compared with these, what Liu Yu valued more was the saying that a gentleman will die for his friend.

After Liu Yu finished laughing, he looked at Chen Dao who was still concentrating on chopping trees and seemed not to notice the two people's laughter.

In front of him, several trees had been chopped down in all directions.

"Uncle Zhi, this tree is still for pedestrians to enjoy the shade, don't cut it down."

Chen Dao scratched his head, a hint of doubt appeared on his handsome face. Judging from Liu Yu's expression just now, it seemed that he would not give up until all the forest was cut down.

Now, after he had cut down a few trees, Liu Yu changed his mind. What happened?

Seeing Chen Dao's bewildered face, Liu Yu smiled and said, "Don't be stunned. Go back to Yingchuan, call Wang Yue, and prepare to return to Luoyang."

The three men mounted their horses, and the sound of horse hooves raised countless white smoke.
