In the second year of Hongwu in the Han Dynasty, spring, February.

A spring rain just fell, and the dry ground had a hint of moistness.

Outside Zaoyang City near Mahe, there were flags waving and crowds running back and forth.

Because Zu Ti in Zaoyang City, after his brother Zu Yue's persuasion, finally decided to abandon the darkness and turn to the light.

When the Han Emperor Liu Yu learned about this, he was very happy and immediately sent someone to prepare seals, crowns, and other ceremonial guards for Zu Ti, and sent them to Zaoyang overnight.

Moreover, Liu Yu decided to visit Zaoyang in person today to welcome the new General Anxi of the Han Dynasty, Zu Ti, to return to Pingyuan City.

When Liu Yu arrived, the powerful people in Zaoyang City were already neatly arranged outside the city to welcome the new master.

Under the escort of the personal army, Liu Yu rode a horse in front, but he did not see Zu Ti in the crowd.

"Where is General Zu?"

Liu Yu immediately looked around and asked.

Logically speaking, Zu Ti is the protagonist among these people.

When he heard the arrogant Liu Yu ask, none of the powerful people from Jidong in Zaoyang answered.

Because in fact, they all betrayed Zu Ti and were a traitor in Zu Ti's eyes, so they tried their best to avoid encountering Zu Ti from the beginning.

Of course they don't know what the situation is now.

At this moment, Zu Yue came in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, your brother is here."

"But my brother said that he was a person who was guilty and did not dare to be treated well by His Majesty, so he asked me to return the seal and crown to His Majesty to his Majesty, just to sue the family for nothing."

When Zu Yue said this, he was always extremely nervous.

No matter how he persuaded him, his brother refused to appear outside Zaoyang City as a general of the new dynasty.

When Liu Yu finished hearing these words, he had already seen a person coming out of Zaoyang City from afar.

A brown dress is like an ordinary people.

"How could General Zu be so talented, so how could he waste his time at home in his vain?"

Liu Yu said to Zu Yue.

Then, Liu Yu led his horse forward. When he passed by Zu Yue, he leaned over on the horse's back and grabbed the seal that Zu Yue held high in his hand.

Zhao Kun and other personal guards immediately urged the horse to follow, and all the Jidong tyrants on both sides widened their eyes in surprise.

They didn't know what Liu Yu was going to do in this way.

In front of Liu Yu's horse was Zu Zhen who came from afar.

When Liu Yu's mount was about to approach Zu Ti, Zu Ti was already surprised by Liu Yu's actions.

"Well!"

Liu Yu suddenly pulled his horse, and his mount turned around for a while and stopped.

"Shi Zhigong, don't be fine!" Liu Yu stepped off his horse and held him to pay homage to his ancestor.

"General... Your Majesty, Zu is just a person who is guilty, how can he afford it..."

Liu Yu's behavior, like a rude general, made Zu Ti feel very friendly and couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.

"I know the difficulties of Shi Zhigong. Where are there any sins?!"

"Your Majesty restored the Han Dynasty to fight against Hu, and Zu did not know the current affairs to lead troops to separate. Even if Your Majesty forgives his sins, how can I see the world?"

When Liu Yu heard this, he didn't care at all. He waved his hand and interrupted Zu Ti's words.

"Now that the barbarians are raging, everyone is in danger, and there are many people who commit crimes. Only the general is in a dilemma, but he can still keep his own heart and think about repaying the old kindness of the Jin family. The loyal and kind person who is like a general is loyal!"

What did Zu Ti want to say when he heard this?

But he was interrupted by Liu Yu again.

"Now that the Sima family has caused troubles in this way, they have fled far away from the remote states, only caring about the matter of being fucked. No one can support the world."

"I am now restoring the Han Dynasty's ancestral temple and pursuing the throne is not to seek power, but just to be able to raise the banner of Xia Zhengshuo in the midst of chaos in the Central Plains, so that those scholars and people who are unwilling to be driven by the barbarians have hope!"

When Liu Yu said this, he was full of emotion and even after he finished speaking, he was moved.

After hearing this, Zu Ti sighed.

"For the millions of people in the summer, I don't care about this. Even though I can't stand the cold, how dare I say no!"

"I, a master of Zhigong, have always had lofty ambitions, and can pacify the barbarians and restore Luojing. This is exactly what it means. How can I waste my life just because I am concerned about the comments of those who are just a corpse!"

"If the ancestors cannot come out, why can the people in the world?"

As soon as Liu Yu said this, Zu Te, who was grabbed by him, began to be moved.

What's this?

This is a special encounter!

Not only was the person involved Zu Ti so moved that he was very excited, but the powerful people from Jidong who were approaching him were also sighing after hearing Liu Yu's words.

However, what these Jidong tyrants sighed was not that Liu Yushu treated Zu Shi, but that they were all thinking that although Zu Shi was a little famous before and led his army to repel the barbarians not long ago, Liu Yu's attitude of being a courtesy of the national sage made these Jidong tyrants unable to understand.

Why is this happening? They know Zu Ti is powerful, but they have never seen it as powerful as this level.

Could it be that Liu Yu had the wise eyes of Xiao He back then, and could he see the extraordinary aspects of Zu Ti at a glance?

If that is true, Liu Yu's position in the hearts of the Hebei Heilongjiang might have to rise to another level.

After all, "If the ancestors cannot come out, what is the people in the world?" It is not easy to say.

"Your Majesty, if you have such a generous encounter, Zu Ge is really right, and you really can't repay you!"

Zu Ti said with two red eyes and his voice trembling slightly.

In fact, Zu Ti himself was also wondering why Liu Yu had identified himself from the beginning? Not only did he rise sharply when he was in Jibei County, but he still had a lot of eyes on himself even now after he led the crowd to separate.

Why all of this?

Could it be that my Zuti is really surrounded by purple energy, and is it destined to be like this?

Liu Yu immediately staged something with Zu Ti, the king and his subjects got together and the joint alliance was a major event.

After forcibly stuffing the seal in his hand into Zu Ti's hand, Liu Yu took off his cloak and put it on Zu Ti's own body.

"In the past, when kings worshipped generals, they had to entrust land and build platforms and personally granted them to the generals. Now, they are urgent to deal with the matter, and they have to follow the power."

Zu Ti held the seal and ribbon in his hand, saying he didn't dare to say anything.

Liu Yu shouted to Zhao Kun behind him.

"Take another horse over!"

Soon, Zhao Kun came over with a horse in person.

Liu Yu took the reins and said to Zu Ti.

"Since I cannot enfeoff the land and build a platform to worship the general, then I will walk with the general and show it to the army!"

Seeing this, Zu Ti took a deep breath. All the humble and indifferent words could not be expressed under Liu Yu's bright and straightforward eyes.

"Your Majesty met this, and Zu Ti was useless to say too much, he could only repay him by crushing his bones!"

However, when Liu Yu and Zu Ti walked side by side and inspected the troops, Zu Ti was slightly behind.

After all matters in Zaoyang were handled, Liu Yu led the army back to Pingyuan City and prepared to face the war between the barbarians.

On the way back, Ran Liang, who had been with him, was always confused, and seemed to be very confused, and he wanted to ask Liu Yu.

When there was no one around, Ran Liang finally couldn't help but ask.

"Your Majesty, why did you give Zu Ti such a heavy treatment today?"

Although Ran Liang is young, he has always been very deeply aware of the huge gap in power and status in the army since childhood.

This time, Liu Yu led Zu Ti to join forces and showed it to the entire army. In fact, in an instant, Zu Ti changed from a surrendered general with few troops to a highly prestigious confidant general.

No matter how much Ran Liang thought, he felt that Zu Ti’s fame and credit were not worthy of Liu Yu’s performance.

"Zhu Ti is an extraordinary person, of course he cannot treat him as an ordinary person."

Liu Yu looked at Ran Liang and did not say in detail.

"Why is Zu Ti an extraordinary person?" Ran Liang still asked.

"Ran Liang, you must believe that some people can not only charge forward, but also think about the overall situation. Even when they encounter adversity, they can become impossible when they cannot do it!"

Liu Yu used a vague sentence to Ran Liang's difficult-to-understand words, so he sent him away.

Because Liu Yu’s true thoughts are actually not enough to express.

Liu Yu treated Zu Ti so politely, of course, not because he was a historical celebrity, but because Zu Ti showed his ability in the short time when he led Jizhou, which had already made Liu Yu clearly see the gap between his military generals and famous generals like Zu Ti.

Not only did he charge and seize the generals and flags, but he also controlled the generals and subordinates, the entire army, and the vast number of soldiers.

These abilities are far superior to those of Dong Ping, Li Feng, and Cao Yi.
