Chapter 97: The Two Become Brothers
A strong idea surged in Liu Ji's heart. He hoped to tie Xiao He tightly to his side.
Looking at Xiao He's calm and deep eyes, Liu Ji knew that Xiao He would play a very important role under Prince Fusu in the future.
So he took a deep breath and made a decision.
Liu Ji suddenly stopped and spoke to Xiao He solemnly.
"Brother Xiao, although I, Liu Ji, am not talented, I have a sincere heart."
"I am here today and want to worship you as my big brother."
"From now on, no matter how the world changes, I will treat you as my own brother."
Xiao He was startled by Liu Ji's sudden action. He was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved his hands.
"Brother Liu Ji, what do you mean?"
"We will all be under the command of Master Fusu in the future, but we are all equals, so why should we call him elder brother?"
Liu Ji insisted, "Brother Xiao, I know you are both wise and brave. You will achieve great things under Master Fusu in the future."
"Although I am not talented, I also want to travel the world with you."
"I sincerely respect you as my elder brother today, and I hope you can accept it."
As he said this, Liu Ji was about to kneel down to Xiao He. Seeing this, Xiao He hurriedly supported Liu Ji.
"Brother Liu Ji, you are embarrassing me. How can I, Xiao He, dare to accept such a great gift from you?"
"We are in the same boat and should work together for Master Fusu."
Liu Ji looked at Xiao He's determined eyes and admired him even more.
He knew that Xiao He was a principled and principled man who would not easily accept compliments and flattery from others.
So he changed the way he expressed his feelings.
"Brother Xiao, if you don't accept my greeting, then treat me as your own brother."
"No matter what the future holds, we must advance and retreat together, and live and die together."
Xiao He looked at Liu Ji's sincere eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He nodded.
"Okay! Brother Liu Ji, from now on, you are my younger brother, Xiao He. Let's work together for Prince Fusu and create great things together!"
The two smiled at each other and held each other's hands tightly.
At this moment, the friendship between them became even deeper.
They know that as long as they unite as one and work together, they will be able to carve out a world of their own!
Fusu looked at the moonlight outside the window, his brows furrowed, with a thousand thoughts in his mind.
He knows that in this day and age, just having some technical expertise is not enough.
Although his waterwheel and papermaking technology were much more advanced than those of the same period, they were still far from his ideal state.
He knew that to truly change this era, he needed the support of more capable people.
Fusu's gaze inadvertently fell on the young eunuch beside him.
He was a personal eunuch who was promoted after Zhao Gao was killed. His name was Li Chen.
He called Li Chen to his side and decided to start with a casual chat to find out Li Chen's background and talents.
"Li Chen, where are you from?" Fusu asked gently.
Li Chen bowed his head slightly and answered respectfully: "My lord, I come from a small town in Longxi County."
Fusu nodded and continued, "Longxi County is a place where the people are simple and honest and where many talented people emerge."
"Did you have any special experiences or observations there?"
A hint of curiosity flashed in Fusu's eyes. He was quite interested in the customs and talent resources of Longxi County.
He smiled and encouraged Li Chen: "Li Chen, just tell me, no matter how big or small the matter is, I really want to know."
