When Zhu Jin just rushed out of the city gate, he never expected that it was Xu Zhihe who was waiting outside the city, and when he saw Zhu Jin rushing out with someone, Xu Zhihe shouted "release the arrows", and in an instant, thousands of arrows flew together, Zhu Jin was caught off guard, and a large piece fell in an instant, and the wailing sound resounded in the night sky. Zhu Jin was frightened and kept dodging, but he was still hit by an arrow in the leg, he immediately retreated to the city with his family, and shouted "Retreat, close the city gate quickly", and then scolded loudly "Xu Wen, this old horseman is really fast".

Xu Zhihe saw that the other party was about to close the city gate, so he shouted "kill", and Ma Renyu took the lead and rushed into the city. Zhu Jin was caught off guard by this sudden attack, and the people around him were also in chaos, his combat effectiveness dropped significantly, he was already panicked, coupled with the lack of troops, after a while, all the personal soldiers led by Zhu Jin were killed, and only he and his family were left, but his combat strength was still very fierce, and he was making the last struggle. Ma Renyu led people to surround him, and Xu Zhihe shouted:

"General Zhu, don't resist stubbornly, don't think about yourself, but also think about your family." It was only at this time that Zhu Jin found out that it was Xu Zhihe, Zhu Jin knew that he was hopeless, and shouted:

"Xu Zhihe, one person does things and one person does it, it's a pity that I, Zhu Jin, didn't die on the battlefield, and I am unwilling to have this ending today."

"General Zhu, you are a famous general in Huainan, and you are a person who has made great contributions to Huainan, as long as you admit your mistakes to King Wu, I think King Wu will let you go." Xu Zhihe shouted.

"Hmph," Zhu Jin said, "Xu Zhihe, King Wu may let me go, but Xu Wen will not let me go, you don't know Xu Wen too well, he is a demon who kills people without blinking, eats people without spitting out bones." ”

Hearing Zhu Jin comment on his adoptive father, Xu Zhihe couldn't accept it, but he still had respect for Zhu Jin, so he shouted:

"General Zhu, I see that there is some misunderstanding between you, if you give up resistance, I can explain everything to King Wu and my adoptive father, maybe the situation is not as bad as you think."

After listening to Xu Zhihe's words, Zhu Jin laughed loudly: "Hahaha, you are too naïve, everything is done by me alone, and it has nothing to do with others, Xu Zhihe, let my family go." ”

After Zhu Jin finished shouting, he raised his knife and drew an arc in the air, Xu Zhihe had a bad premonition when he saw this and wanted to stop it, as soon as he shouted "Zhu ......", he saw Zhu Jin's knife tip straight into the abdomen, and the wives Tao and Yao Die behind him shouted "Master, lord", tears fell into tears, but to no avail, Zhu Jin fell.

Xu Zhihe was shocked by Zhu Jin's sudden move, he and Zhu Jin did not have much intersection, but the two had also met, he admired Zhu Jin, Zhu Jin was suave and suave when he was young, and he had great ambitions. At that time, Xu Zhihe was still a teenager, but he knew and respected heroes, and he even wanted to become friends with Zhu Jin one day and talk about the heroes of the world together, but now it is impossible.

Xu Zhihe ordered someone to clean up Zhu Jin's body and take away his family. Zhu Jin is a righteous person and a straightforward person, but he is not a wise person, Xu Zhihe sighed for his death and felt deeply sorry.

Xu Zhihe immediately went to see Yang Longyan and told him that Zhu Jin had been executed if he wanted to defect. At the same time, Xu Zhihe sent someone to Shengzhou to report to Xu Wen and tell him what happened. When Xu Wen heard that his eldest son was killed by Zhu Jin, his heart ached, and his anger jumped like thunder. Xu Wen knew that this son was not of good character, but after all, he was his eldest son, and he still had high hopes for him. Xu Wen ordered Xu Zhihe to brutalize Zhu Jin's body for three days and execute all his family members, Xu Zhihe objected to this, Zhu Jin was dead, his family members were innocent, it was too cruel to do so, but in the end, Xu Zhihe's opposition was invalid, Xu Wen was angry, and he didn't listen to Xu Zhihe's advice at all. Xu Wen is such a person, either he doesn't do it, or he wants to do it cleanly, and killing Li Yu's family back then is a good example.

After Zhu Jin's death, Xu Zhihe adopted Song Qiqiu's suggestion and continued to garrison Guangling City, declaring to the outside world to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos. At the same time, he actively wooed Yang Longyan and told him that the situation had calmed down, and now everything was as usual, and Yang Longyan's nervous heart calmed down a little. Due to the dictatorship of the Xu family for many years, Yang Longyan was very disgusted with the Xu family, but Xu Zhihe's humble and respectful attitude was in stark contrast to Xu Zhixun, and Yang Longyan quickly eliminated his wariness of Xu Zhihe. Soon Yang Longyan wrote to Xu Wen and asked, "Now that there is no one in the DPRK and China to assist the government, I don't know what arrangements the Duke of Qi has arranged?" Yan Keqiu suggested to Xu Wen after knowing this:

"My lord, you should consider letting the second son take over the position of the eldest son." 徐文 says:

"The old man understands what Mr. means, but Xun'er has no experience in government, and I am afraid that he will not be able to cope with it if he directly lets him enter the auxiliary government of the DPRK.

"But my lord," Yan Keqiu added, "it is precisely because of your adopted son's outstanding ability that he cannot be allowed to enter the court auxiliary government, and although he can control the court situation with his ability, but once he controls the court situation, I am afraid it will be a curse or a blessing for you!" After hearing this, Xu Wen paced and pondered, and said:

"He'er has made remarkable achievements in governing the local government in recent years, won the support of the people, and has not overstepped the rules, and now he is the most suitable person to join the auxiliary government of the DPRK. The old man who has an assistant to the government can also rest assured, it is better to let him experience some time first, and then let him enter the court to assist him when the opportunity is right. Yan Keqiu saw that Xu Wen insisted on using Xu Zhihe and didn't continue to talk about it, he just felt that things were not so simple.

Soon Xu Wen wrote to Yang Longyan and officially appointed Xu Zhihe as the deputy envoy of the Huainan Jiedu March, replacing Xu Zhixun's auxiliary government. Since then, Xu Zhihe has started to step into the center of power and move towards the world in his heart.
