How did Xu Yuanzhi die in Three Kingdoms!

Died of illness. In 228 AD (the sixth year of Jianxing), Zhuge Liang led his army to the Northern Expedition. Hearing that Xu Shu and Shi Tao (prefectural governor and Diannong school captain) were not very high-ranking officials, he sighed: "Is there too many counselors in Wei? , why not reuse Xu Shu and Shi Tao?"

A few years later, Xu Shu died of illness, and there is a monument in Pengcheng. Extended information

Xu Shu (date of birth and death unknown), with the character Zhi. A native of Changshe County, Yingchuan County (now Changgedong, Xuchang, Henan Province). At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he served as a counselor under Liu Bei, and later returned to Cao Cao and served in Cao Wei.

Xu Shu’s real name is Xu Fu, and he is a child of a poor family. In his early years, he avenged others. After being rescued, he changed his name to Xu Shu and became a disciple. Later, he and Shi Guangyuan from the same county took refuge in Jingzhou, and had close contacts with Taoist friends Sima Hui, Zhuge Liang, and Cuizhou Pingping. When Liu Bei was stationed in Xinye, Xu Shu went to seek refuge and recommended Zhuge Liang to Liu Bei.

When Xu Shu went south, his mother was captured by Cao Cao, so Xu Shu had no choice but to say goodbye to Liu Bei and enter Cao's camp. Later, this incident was artistically processed into afterwords such as "Xu Shu entered Cao Ying without saying a word", which was widely circulated. Xu Shu was also praised as a model of filial son. During the reign of Emperor Wen of Wei, Xu Shuguan was promoted to Youzhonglangjiang and Yushi Zhongcheng.
