Precisely because of their special circumstances, after experiencing so many ups and downs together, they naturally developed an extremely deep revolutionary friendship.

If Guo Jia sent an envoy to lobby Chen Dao, in order to allow himself to take a further step forward, he would ask him to help secretly.

Based on Liu Yu's understanding of Chen Dao, he is very likely to be persuaded to agree to this matter!

While Liu Yu was in a trance, a terrifying scene suddenly appeared in front of his eyes - he saw Chen Dao standing beside the emperor, with his hands holding high the long sword in his hands, ready to chop down.

If this scene really happened, wouldn't the emperor be in extreme danger!

Thinking of this, Liu Yu couldn't help but feel anxious.

"Zhongkang..." Liu Yu looked at Xu Chu anxiously, his eyes full of eager anticipation, "At this moment, I have a very important request to make from you, I wonder if you can agree to it?"

When Xu Chu heard this, his face instantly became panic-stricken.

Xu Chu said earnestly, "I am grateful to my lord for his love and respect, and I am entrusted with such a great responsibility.

In this life, the only way I can feel at peace is to repay my lord's kindness to me with my death.

As long as the lord gives the order, I will move forward without hesitation even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, or dangerous places ahead.

Even if I have to kill the person closest to me with my own hands, I will never hesitate or retreat!"

Xu Chu did not hesitate at all and spoke very naturally, as if these things had always been in his mind and there was no need for much hesitation.

Liu Yu stared at Xu Chu, and was deeply moved to see how sincerely he spoke.

He held Xu Chu's hand tightly and said slowly: "Zhong Kang, please don't speak so seriously. In fact, I don't want you to go and kill people. On the contrary, I hope you can protect someone."

When Xu Chu heard this, a strange light suddenly flashed in his originally dull eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

Then, Xu Chu couldn't wait to ask: "Who is the person that my lord wants me to protect?"

Liu Yu's eyes were still filled with deep worry. He said very solemnly: "I need you to promise me that no matter what kind of difficulties, obstacles or dangerous situations we encounter, you must ensure that this person is safe and unharmed!"

Xu Chu's big eyes like copper bells stared ahead, with an extremely solemn look in his eyes.

He remained silent, as if time had stopped at this moment.

After a long while, he slowly said, "My lord, don't worry! I am willing to swear a solemn oath here. If I cannot protect this man and he suffers the slightest harm, I, Xu Chu, will suffer the pain of thousands of arrows piercing my heart and die miserably!

But... I don't know who the person is that my lord has entrusted me with the important task of protecting."

Liu Yu looked at Xu Chu's serious expression, and his originally anxious heart calmed down a little.

He took a deep breath and answered word by word: "The person I want you to protect is His Majesty!"

His Majesty?

When Xu Chu heard this, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face. It was obvious that this answer was beyond his expectations.

He could not help but frown and asked in confusion: "My lord, a few days ago, when Chang'an was besieged by Cao Cao's army, the emperor did not encounter any danger.

Now Cao Cao, who had been attacking Chang'an for a long time but failed, had already retreated, and the city had long since returned to its former peace and tranquility.

Your Majesty has Shu Zhi as a personal guard by your side. I have heard that he is not weak in martial arts, brave and resourceful. With him guarding Your Majesty, how can there be any danger? "

Liu Yu shook his head and explained, "Although Shuzhi is loyal, brave and fearless, I have not been with me for a long time. I am worried that someone will secretly instigate things and confuse his mind, causing him to lose his composure and make mistakes.

Therefore, I give you a special warrant, you must quickly go to Chang'an City and replace Shuzhi.

When you arrive in Chang'an, once you see Shu Zhi, remember to follow him closely at all times and don't leave him even for a moment. Make sure he leaves the city before you stop!"

Xu Chu was a little puzzled.

"My lord, do you suspect that Shuzhi has rebellious intentions? If so, I will kill him as soon as I see him."

"Absolutely not." Liu Yu knew that Xu Chu had misunderstood him, and he quickly explained, "Shu Zhi is loyal to me, and I have never doubted this. That is why I am even more worried.

When you see Shu Zhi, take out my order and ask him to follow it. As long as he leaves Chang'an safely, you don't have to worry about it."

Seeing that Liu Yu spoke so seriously, Xu Chu knew that this matter was of great importance, so he said no more.

He suddenly appeared and rushed out of the door as fast as the wind, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Soon, Xu Chu had gathered all the soldiers under his command, and everyone was in high spirits and morale.

They lined up in an orderly manner, holding tightly in their hands the warrant that Liu Yu had just written, as if the thin piece of paper was carrying a heavy burden.

"After I go to Chang'an, I will no longer be able to accompany you all the time and help you solve your problems. You must take good care of yourself!"

Xu Chu spoke sincerely, and before he finished speaking, he leaned forward, fell to the ground, and slowly bowed deeply to Liu Yu.

This bow was filled with his deep respect and loyalty to Liu Yu.

Upon seeing this, Liu Yu hurried forward, stretched out his hands, and vigorously helped Xu Chu up.

He held Xu Chu's strong and powerful hand tightly, looked at the loyal and brave man in front of him with a serious and affectionate gaze, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty's safety now depends entirely on you, Zhongkang. This trip is a heavy responsibility, and you must be careful and cautious in everything you do, and you must not be careless in the slightest!"

Xu Chu held his head high and replied with a determined look: "My lord, rest assured. I will fulfill my mission and protect your majesty at the cost of my life!"

After he finished speaking, he saluted Liu Yu again, then turned around and led his soldiers away with firm and powerful steps.

After Xu Chu left, Liu Yu did not stop his busy pace.

He returned to his study, sat at his desk, and wrote furiously. Urgent orders flowed out of his pen one after another.

These orders were transmitted at the fastest speed, like an arrow shot from a bow.

The most important order was to quickly dispatch Liu Bei to Chang'an to take over the defense of Chang'an City...
