"According to what His Majesty told General Yuwen, do things as soon as possible, and take Li Yuan to Yangzhou as soon as possible. After all, Li Yuan is also related to His Majesty. Although he has the intention of treason, it is not good to kill the Li family..." Lu Zhongming said : "As for Bingzhou, the two generals will act on balance. Maybe next year, there will be a temporary peace negotiation with the Turks."

When these words came out, Wang Wei and Gao Junya were overjoyed. Anyway, Lu Zhongming was talking nonsense, Gao Junya said: "Master Lu, the Turks in Bingzhou are rampant and frequently invade..."

Lu Zhongming took a sip of tea, and said calmly: "Yue Zhang also knows that Bingzhou can't do without two of them. This time, I will escort Li Jiaqin to the road by himself. Lord Wang, Lord Gao, don't have to worry about it."

"Yes." Gao Junya broke out in a cold sweat, and asked again: "Did the three adults order anything else?"

Lu Zhongming shook his head, seemed to be in deep thought, and said after a while: "Li Yuan is old..."

Speaking of which, Lu Zhongming glanced at the two of them again, knowing what they were thinking, they were afraid that the Li family would not be defeated once, and one day Yang Guang suddenly had the idea of ​​forgiveness, so that the whole family would come back again, and they would look for them to find him. hatred.Then he said casually: "General Yuwen has mobilized his generals to wipe out Li Xiuning, Chai Shao and the rest of the party. Li Jiancheng is in Daxing, and he is detained by his father-in-law in the palace. You two don't need to worry. We have made thorough preparations for this matter, but the news has not been concealed." It won't be long before we have to act as soon as possible to prevent any rumors from being leaked. As long as Li Yuan is arrested, the rest will be handed over to the official."

So far, Wang and Gao have no more doubts, they all know that Yang Guang's favorite ministers have been afraid of Li Yuan for a long time, and they want to get rid of him, and choosing this moment to launch an attack is indeed the best time.

Wang Wei said again: "Lord Lu, when I was monitoring the Jinyang Mansion, I discovered something. Lord Lu, please come and talk to me."

Lu Zhongming nodded, and got up happily, but his heart was in a state of panic.Following Wang Wei through the corridor to the backyard of the mansion, the guard stepped forward, took out a lock, and opened the gate of the dungeon. Gao Junya held the oil lamp in person and made a gesture: "Master Lu, please."

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Are these two going to take him to jail? !Lu Zhongming has a bad heart, is it a trick to invite the king into the urn?But he felt that he hadn't exposed his flaws... In this short thought, he finally decided to wait for Yu Chigong and Chai Shao to save him, and take a gamble.

Lu Zhongming walked into the dungeon, and on the roof far away, two men in black blended into the dark cloudy night, watching him enter the dungeon, Chai Shao drew out the dagger in his arms, and wanted to come forward to rescue him, but Yu Chigong shook his head and stretched out his hand stop him.

Yu Chigong waited for a while, seeing that the other party did not close the door, and the three people who went in did not come out, so he was relieved.

It is said that as soon as Lu Zhongming walked in, the jailer followed him in, and knocked on the fence with an iron rod. With a bang, Lu Zhongming was startled, and was dumbfounded when he saw a person living in the prison.

When the man raised his head, his eyes were blinded by the light, and his hair was disheveled, but Lu Zhongming recognized him at a glance!That's Liu Wenjing!

A few years ago, Lu Zhongming met outside the Great Wall. Although Lu Zhongming was a fool, he was not blind. When he saw Liu Wenjing's disheveled hair and face, he couldn't open his eyes. , and the least suspicious plan.

"Who is this person?" Lu Zhongming asked Gao Junya.

Liu Wenjing was startled suddenly, and Lu Zhongming said with disgust, "Is it from Li Yuan?"

"Your Excellency has a clever plan." Wang Wei complimented: "This person is Jinyang Commander Liu Wenjing."

It was only then that Lu Zhongming clearly showed a look of astonishment, and asked, "Liu Wenjing? Look up and let me see?"

Liu Wenjing raised his head. Lu Zhongming knew that he must have recognized him. He had clearly met him once, but he pretended not to know him. The only possibility was that he was pretending.Now that he knew that Lu Zhongming was pretending, Liu Wenjing must know how to cooperate. After all, the person who can be reused by Li Yuan must be a smart person. A moment of lightning is enough for him to guess the cause and effect.When Liu Wenjing raised his head, Lu Zhongming winked at him mysteriously again.

Gao Junya said: "Master Lu, when Liu Wenjing led the army to fight against the Turks, my subordinates stole a secret letter from Li Yuan from his camp, and asked him."

Lu Zhongming suddenly became enlightened, but Liu Wenjing just sneered and didn't answer.

Wang Wei said again: "Li Yuan ordered Liu Wenjing to return to the division in the letter, not to hand over the military power, but to send back the Tiance Army, but to hold the army in hand, and garrison the Yanmen Gate. After he issued an order, he returned to Jinyang to cooperate with the army. He acted against him."

Lu Zhongming thought secretly that it was dangerous, Wang Wei and Gao Junya really had nothing to worry about, if it wasn't for the blind cat meeting the dead mouse and coming so early, Li Yuan probably would have been in big trouble.

"Good job." Lu Zhongming said: "When I report back to Your Majesty and Lord Yuwen, both of you should make the first contribution! Where is the letter?"

Wang Wei asked Lu Zhongming to go out again, and the three of them came to the study, Wang Wei handed out the letter, Lu Zhongming just glanced at it and put it in his arms. At this point, Gao Junya said, "I don't know what plan Mr. Lu has?"

"There is no plan." Lu Zhongming mused, "Listen to the two of you. My opinion is sooner rather than later."

"Then dispatch troops tonight." Wang Wei said: "At dawn, send someone to the palace to deliver a letter, saying...the Turks have an urgent military situation and are about to invade Jinyang. Please come to the other palace to discuss matters."

Gao Junya said: "I will send someone to lay an ambush on the road, Mr. Lu..."

Lu Zhongming said happily: "How can you not join in the fun of this kind of thing? When the time comes, I will go with Mr. Gao."

The three laughed, and Wang Wei said: "Okay, then there will be Master Lau Lu!"

Gao Junya said again: "Lord Lu, please rest here for a while, and when the arrangements are made by the officials, come and invite Master Lu to go into battle in person!"

Lu Zhongming smiled all over his face, nodded and said yes, Gao Junya and Wang Wei stepped back, and when they left, they turned around and changed their faces.Lu Zhongming thought to himself, "You two fools, the corners of your mouth twitched.As soon as Gao Junya and Wang Wei turned around, their faces collapsed. Wang Wei stood in the courtyard and whispered, "Why send a child here?"

Gao Junya said: "Hey! It's not bad to ask for money without reaching out! Hurry up, give him all the credit and take Li Yuan away."

Having said that, the two of them were still undecided when they wanted to deal with Li Yuan. After all, the group of Li Yuan's subordinates were not vegetarians. Wang Wei asked again: "Master Gao, it's okay, after all, the soldiers in the north of the city... "

"They are all recruits, less than three thousand, what are you afraid of them?" Gao Junya said: "Liu Wenjing's subordinates are all detained in the Shangdang, and Tang Wang's mansion only has 1000 soldiers. As long as the battle is quick, there is no need to be afraid of them. You Let's go and arrange, I'll ask Liu Zhenghui if Yu Wenhuaji has any other orders."

Wang Wei nodded his head with a lot of thoughts, and it was no problem to dispatch troops and generals.

Gao Junya passed the news to Liu Zhenghui. Liu Zhenghui thought he had nothing to do with himself, but unexpectedly he was called over again, and immediately became nervous.

Gao Junya came to the door and asked, "What else did Yu Wenhua and your lord say? Is it the same as what he said?"

There were only two people in the room, and Liu Zhenghui immediately trembled like chaff.However, it was too late to say it, and then he glanced inadvertently, and saw a person sitting on the beam idly, it was the tall and tall Yuchi Jingde.

Yuchi Jingde was dressed in black, sitting on the beam, with one foot dangling down, casually playing with a dagger in his big hand, with an indifferent expression on his face, holding the edge of the blade with his fingers, and pointed at Liu Zhenghui.

Liu Zhenghui knew that if he didn't speak well, the dagger would fly out of his hand and plunge into his throat, so he had to stabilize his mind again, perform supernormally, and bowed: "My lord, I didn't hear lord Yuwen's order. , what General Pei told Master Lu is to cut the weeds and root out the roots, and don't bring them to His Majesty."

"Hmm." Gao Junya was obviously very satisfied with this, thought for a while, and said: "After capturing Li Yuan alive, you will go back with Mr. Lu. You know what to do on the way, so I don't need to teach you?"

Liu Zhenghui hesitated for a while, and asked: "Master Gao, what you mean is that if the kid can't do it, the subordinates will..." There was a questioning look in his eyes.

"Very good." Gao Junya said: "Go and talk to him first."

Liu Zhenghui nodded, closed the door and went out.

Lu Zhongming was sitting in the wing room in a daze, a little sleepy, wanting to sleep but unable to sleep, afraid that something might happen again, he knew that he would bring out the bow, how would he get out later?After talking about how to cheat, they didn't say how to get out. Li Shimin and Yu Chigong didn't seem to worry about his personal safety at all...

When he was thinking wildly, there was a click on the window sill, which startled Lu Zhongming.

When looking out, two men in black passed by, Lu Zhongming whispered: "The man in the dungeon is Liu Wenjing, can you rescue him?"

A little farther away, the man in black made a gesture, it was Chai Shao, nodded, and pointed at Yu Chigong, turned over and climbed onto the eaves, Yuchigong climbed up the corner of the eaves with one hand, stepped on the window sill with his long legs, and stood firmly Then he squatted down, like a big honest dog.

"Go save Liu Wenjing..." Lu Zhongming whispered, "What are you doing squatting here?"

Yu Chigong covered his face, his exposed eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was smiling.

Lu Zhongming: "???"

Yu Chigong looked at Lu Zhongming without blinking his eyes. Lu Zhongming was puzzled and waved his hand in front of him.

Yuchi Gong laughed again.

Lu Zhongming simply lifted his mask and asked, "Are you stupid?"

Yu Chigong's lips were firm and sexy. Lu Zhongming didn't know why, but suddenly wanted to kiss him, his Adam's apple twitched uncomfortably, but Yu Chigong held his hand with a smile, took off the scarf, and said, "Those who just now Did you think of the words yourself, or did Shimin teach you to say them?"

"I thought about it myself." Lu Zhongming said inexplicably, "Why do you ask this?"

Yuchi smiled and said: "You are very good-looking, and you are very spiritual."

Lu Zhongming: "..."

"Thank you...thank you for the compliment..." The corners of Lu Zhongming's mouth twitched, and Yu Chi respectfully said: "General Chai is going to save someone, he alone is enough, I will protect you."

Lu Zhongming hummed, sat down, and lay leaning on the Hu bed. He remembered something and asked, "Is Chai Shao's martial arts very strong?"

Yuchi Gong smiled and said: "It's not bad, it's worse than me."

Lu Zhongming said, "Oh? I'll ask him tomorrow."

Yu Chigong's face froze, so he could only truthfully say: "He is the strongest martial artist in the Tang Palace."

Lu Zhongming hummed. He once read about Chai Shao's life from historical materials, and commented that when he was young, he was a "young man who was a knight".

Yu Chigong said: "His black sword, the sword will kill people, this is quite similar to yours. The martial arts are superb, Li Jing will definitely be too much to walk around in front of him. It's a pity that he is already married, and his wife can't be messed with. rise……"

"I didn't plan to mess with him." Lu Zhongming couldn't laugh or cry: "I didn't plan to mess with his wife."

Yu Chigong said solemnly: "There are men who are better than me in martial arts, and I can't find a better one. Why don't you think about it?"

Lu Zhongming: "Think about what?"

It is obviously the current tense stage of the enemy, and for some reason, it is filled with a strange loose and charming atmosphere. Yuchi smiled, looked at Lu Zhongming seriously, and was about to say something when there was a knock on the door.

"Lord Lu." Liu Zhenghui said outside the door.

Lu Zhongming thought in his heart that his wife came in time this time, good time!He immediately said: "Yes."

Liu Zhenghui opened the door and came in, but Yu Chigong glanced at him and asked, "Are you allowed in?"

Liu Zhenghui immediately closed the door and backed out, but Lu Zhongming said, "Come in, it's just a joke." Bi Chaowei frowned. See, let's sit on an equal footing and don't make too much noise.And in case there is something wrong with Gao Junya, if he misses it, it might lead to a wrong call.

Yuchi Gong covered his face with a veil, looked at Liu Zhenghui from behind the veil, Lu Zhongming said again: "Please sit down, Zhenghui."

Liu Zhenghui was still a little nervous, so he sat down and asked, "Can I go?"

Lu Zhongming comforted: "Don't worry, I will protect you."

Lu Zhongming asked in detail once, and Liu Zhenghui told Gao Junya's cross-examination. Lu Zhongming secretly said that it was dangerous, and it seemed that the two left-behind deputy guards were not too stupid.The two chatted casually, Yu Chigong squatted on the window sill like a big dog, with his hands hanging between his legs, Lu Zhongming stopped chatting, and was a little sleepy, lying on the Hu bed to sleep.

He felt that Yu Chigong was always staring at him, and when he opened his eyes, Yuchi Gong immediately looked away, a little uncomfortable.

Lu Zhongming was so sleepy that he gradually fell asleep. After a while, someone knocked on the door again. Lu Zhongming woke up suddenly. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the sky was getting bright, and Yu Chigong on the window sill had disappeared. Liu Zhenghui fell asleep lying on his stomach in front of the short case.

"Please come in." Lu Zhongming straightened his clothes.

Gao Junya came in and said respectfully, "Lord Lu, everything is ready."

Lu Zhongming pulled his collar, turned around and saw Liu Zhenghui getting up sleepily, and said, "You don't have to follow."

Liu Zhenghui hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed to send the two of them away. Gao Junya personally took Lu Zhongming to the alley outside. The east was exposed, and the whole city was sleeping soundly.Gao Junya said: "Master Wang has gone to ambush, we will rush out from the side later, just capture Li Yuan alive."

"Do you have a bow and arrow? Give me a pair." Lu Zhongming said.

Gao Junya only thought that he wanted to make meritorious deeds, so she immediately ordered people to marry bows and arrows. Everyone wrapped their horses' hooves in cloth, and ran towards the road in front of the Jinyang Palace with a muffled sound.

There are tens of thousands of people, Lu Zhongming's heart is pounding, presumably there are many people on Wang Wei's side, 2 people rushed out, and the palace has only one thousand soldiers. If it is self-defeating, it might really be defeated Then everything will be over, but thinking about last night, Yu Chigong cooperated with Chai Shao to monitor this place, and must have set up a comprehensive plan, trust your teammates.

The sky turned white, the rooster crowed, and a red sun was rising. A sharp whistle sounded from afar. Gao Junya said, "Follow me—!"

After finishing speaking, the soldiers raised their weapons one after another, and rushed over from Xizhi Street. Just as Lu Zhongming was about to take the opportunity to escape, he urged his horse, "Drive!"

Gao Junya's expression changed: "My lord, slow down!"

It was too late and then it was too late, Lu Zhongming had already taken the lead and charged far away. Thousands of cavalry rushed across Xizhi Street like water dragons. Gao Junya caught up and shouted: "My lord! Let them charge first..."

Just as Lu Zhongming turned his head, another team of cavalry ambushing in the north-south direction of the street launched a charge in an instant.

"Kill—!" Nearly a thousand horses rushed forward, and before Lu Zhongming could turn his head, he was hit by a general holding a horse, and the horse neighed sharply. Lu Zhongming was knocked off the horse's back, and the whole person flew , the general behind him also flew up, stretched out his hand in mid-air to grab Lu Zhongming, the two fell, and the horse caught up, it was Bai Yunju, and the two landed firmly on the horse's back.

The long street was caught in a melee, Gao Junya hadn't reacted at that moment, and panicked: "Master Lu has been robbed! Save him!"

"There's no need to save—" Lu Zhongming turned his head and waved at him, "Bye bye—"

Gao Junya: "..."

In an instant, on the houses on both sides of the long street, the archers who had been ambushing for a long time appeared one after another, and a round of arrows rained down, knocking people off their backs.

Qin Qiong took Lu Zhongming around a corner and came out from the alley again. Bai Yunju flew through the air and kicked Gao Junya straight out with one hoof. Gao Junya spurted blood and fell to the ground, dead or alive.

"Gao Junya communicated with foreign enemies and colluded with the Turks to cause rebellion! Put down your weapons and save your lives! Don't blame the past! Otherwise, you will be killed!" Qin Qiong roared: "I'll count to three, if you don't surrender! Just shoot me an arrow!"

Lu Zhongming held his breath immediately, knowing that there were eight thousand of these defenders, if they mutinied, they might not be able to stop them with bluffing bows and arrows. With the first sound of the weapon falling to the ground, there was an endless clatter.

Qin Qiong threw down a sentence: "Clean the battlefield and send people to treat the wounded soldiers. Without my order, no one is allowed to punish them for their crimes!" Without further words, he turned around and left the long street with Lu Zhongming.

It's so cool... Lu Zhongming was immediately taken aback. He hadn't seen Qin Qiong act aggressively before, but now it seems that everyone is tough.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Qin Qiong left the long street, his appearance of the Bingshan God of War changed instantly, and he turned around and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

"Not...not yet." Lu Zhongming said, "Where's Brother Luo?"

"Ambush in front of the other palace." Qin Qiong said: "Rush over now, and join in the fun, drive—!"

In the early morning, the sun shines brightly, shining brilliantly on the whole of Jinyang. The main road in front of the other palace has become a battlefield for both sides to fight. Covering from the side, the battle was coming to an end, Luo Shixin rushed into the other palace with a long spear, and Li Jing led Tiance cavalry to fight outside.

Lu Zhongming got off his horse, and Li Shimin got off his horse when he saw them coming. The two rushed to each other and gave each other a high-five with a smile.

"It scared me to death." Lu Zhongming said, "What's the matter with the carriage?"

"Empty car." Li Shimin said with lingering fear, "It's a good thing I didn't get in, and now they are all finished. Wang Wei hid in Jinyang Palace."

While speaking, Luo Shixin rushed out of Jinyang Palace on his horse, followed by heart-piercing shouts, and Chai Shao shouted angrily: "Okay!"

Seeing that Luo Shixin was dragging Wang Wei's ankles, Wang Wei bumped and fell on the steps of the other palace, his head was broken and he was bleeding, Li Shimin said decisively: "Clean the battlefield immediately and withdraw the troops!"

The battle started quickly and ended quickly, and within an hour, the troops were withdrawn. At this time, the market had just opened, and many people opened their doors to see the blood on the street. They were startled, and there were many discussions.

The Jinyang Palace is shrouded in the brilliance of the rising sun, with pavilions, towers and pavilions covered with a hazy red-gold color.

Four people stood outside the main hall, namely Yu Chigong, Li Jing, Luo Shixin, and Lu Zhongming.Li Shimin and Liu Wenjing entered and reported the details of the civil strife to Li Yuan who had just gotten up.

Lu Zhongming was drowsy, he would fall over when standing, leaning on Luo Shixin's arm, snoring.

The three of them glanced sideways at him, thinking that they could fall asleep standing up, this guy...

Li Yuan's furious scolding came from inside the hall, which startled Lu Zhongming awake. After less than a stick of incense, the scolding died down. After standing for a long time, he vaguely heard Li Shimin say: "Brother-in-law and General Qin have gone to take over the entire city's army..."

Finally, the conversation in the room died down, and Li Shimin came out after explaining the matter, wiped off his sweat, and said, "Everyone has worked hard, let's all go back and rest."

Lu Zhongming said, "It's all right."

Li Shimin said: "It's okay, I have to send someone quickly to bring the elder brother and the third younger brother back. Go back and rest first, I'm tired after working all night. Shi Xin..."

Li Shimin talked to Luo Shixin for a few more words, and Yu Chigong took Lu Zhongming home to rest.

Lu Zhongming was a little disappointed, he thought Li Yuan would reward him with something, but he didn't say anything and didn't summon them. Yu Chigong saw that Lu Zhongming was not very happy, and asked, "Sleepy?"

Lu Zhongming asked: "Is the king of Tang usually like this?"

So many generals rushed to fight for him all morning, without even summoning him, Yu Chigong thought about it, and knew what Lu Zhongming meant, and said with a smile: "He should be in a mess right now, so don't worry about it."

Lu Zhongming thought so too, Li Yuan didn't even look good on his own son, and now that Li Shimin forced him to rebel, he was probably going crazy.

"I'm afraid that the people of the world will be scolded." Lu Zhongming frowned deeply.

Yuchi Gong sneered and said: "General Chai is here, so it doesn't get in the way."

When the two returned to the courtyard, they found that the maid who gave the gift had arrived first. This time, each of them had a bolt of high-quality silk, followed by a plate full of gold ingots, and four boxes, each containing a luminous pearl. Lu Zhongming glanced at it and asked him to put it away. Unexpectedly, there was another box of Chunya Cake.

"Rewarded by your son?" Lu Zhongming asked.

The maid didn't know, and the two looked at each other, and Lu Zhongming guessed that Li Shimin should appreciate it. He was meticulous in everything, and took care of the general's mood.

Lu Zhongming tasted the toon sprout cake, and felt that although the taste was not as good as the mung bean cake, it was still unique.I rewarded Yu Chigong with a small piece, and kept the rest, and prepared to wait for Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin to come back, and we all tasted it together, but after waiting for a long time, Luo and Qin never came back.

The spring breeze was blowing warmly, and the sun shone in from outside the house. Lu Zhongming was a little sleepy and lost his mind. Yu Chigong said, "Go to sleep? They're calling you when they come back."

"No." Lu Zhongming replied.

Yu Chigong stretched out his hand, and wrapped his arms around Lu Zhongming's shoulder carefully, as if he was afraid of waking him up or being pushed away, but Lu Zhongming didn't respond, and leaned against Yu Chigong's shoulder, dozing off.Yu Chigong's heart was beating violently, he looked down at him, his eyes rested on Lu Zhongming's moist lips.

He wanted to lower his head and kiss him, but he was too embarrassed. After a while, he picked up Lu Zhongming and put him on the bed in the corner of the hall, which was where Yu Chigong slept. He pulled the quilt over and covered him.The quilt was full of Yu Chigong's smell, Lu Zhongming huddled under the quilt, and fell asleep comfortably.

Yu Chigong leaned on the side of Hu's bed, put his arms on it, leaned his head on the pillow, and watched Lu Zhongming sleep quietly.

The sun was rising three poles, and the day was slanting towards the west, time was passing by, Yu Chigong also fell asleep, breathing intertwined with each other, after a long time, Li Jing's voice sounded:

"Respect."

Yu Chigong and Lu Zhongming woke up at the same time, Li Jing stood in the hall, looking down at the two of them, Lu Zhongming wiped his saliva, Li Jing whispered a few words with Yu Chigong, Yu Chigong's expression changed, and he followed him out.

"What are you doing?" Lu Zhongming asked blankly.

Yuchi Gong said: "Sleep with you!" After speaking, he hurriedly left with Li Jing.

Lu Zhongming: "???"

Lu Zhongming was in a daze of sleep, tried to wake up a little bit, and was dizzy, so he went down to drink some water, changed his robe, and went outside.What happened?It must be a very serious matter for Yu Chigong to stay by his side even when performing missions, and to be called away by Li Jing.

Lu Zhongming came out all the way and walked into the main hall. He was shocked when he saw hundreds of guests, warriors, and scribes standing on the school grounds.This is to rebel?It's not right, I just arrested two deputy guards, why are the doormen booing?

Another person said: "King Tang, you are kind to the brothers, now is the time for us to serve you!"

The voice echoed immediately, and there was a lot of noise, and the gate of the palace shouted: "The Turkic envoy has entered Xizhi Street—"

There was an uproar in the mansion, Li Shimin said: "Everyone, don't be impulsive! Please step back first! Make way!"

As soon as the words fell, Tiance's army swarmed out in two lines, the gate of Jinyang Prince's Mansion opened, and the diners retreated to watch one after another.Li Shimin clasped his fists at the crowd again, and said: "The matter has come to this point, I appreciate your kindness, but don't act rashly."

The school field was silent.

Li Shimin turned around and went back into the hall. Seeing this, Lu Zhongming hurried up the steps of the side door, trying to find out what happened, but when he was about to enter the hall, he was stopped by the guards.

"Prince Tang is discussing matters in the palace, so he can't go in, and he will notify you when there is a result," said the guard.

"Please go in and pass the message." Lu Zhongming said, "I have something important to do."

The guard pondered for a moment. He saw that Lu Zhongming was often with the prince, so he turned and entered the hall to pass the message. Li Shimin in the hall heard it and said: "Please wait outside."

Li Yuan said, "It's Daoist Lu who's here? Please come in quickly."

Yu Chigong frowned slightly, Li Shimin's brows were full of anxiety, and he was very disturbed. Lu Zhongming came in, but didn't speak. Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Yu Chigong, Li Jing, Chai Shao, and Liu Wenjing were all there in the hall. They were talking with Li Yuan, sitting alone, about 50 years old of middle-aged people.

Li Yuandao: "The [-] Turkic army besieged the city, and they arrived outside Jinyang city without a sound. Now they have sent envoys into the city to negotiate peace with the king. What countermeasures do you have?"

Lu Zhongming was shocked suddenly, so the Turkic people came?So much faster than expected?He looked at Li Shimin, and Li Shimin said again: "Today, the people just said to the people that Wang and Gao communicated with the Turks, and now the Turks are coming to attack the city. In fact, it is a good opportunity."

"People in the city are in panic." The middle-aged man sitting beside Li Yuan said, "How do we defeat the enemy now?"

"When dealing with the Turks, you can't give in." Qin Qiong stepped forward and said: "King Tang, the enemy has only 5 people, and we have 3 people. Let them attack the city."

Luo Shixin leaned against the pillars in the hall and said with a smile: "As long as the city gates are closed tightly, Jinyang will not be able to attack at all without 10 people."

"Inappropriate." The middle-aged man replied: "Now is the time for troubles, how can we have a direct confrontation with the Turkic people?"

Yuchi Gong slightly approached Lu Zhongming, and explained in a very low voice in his ear: "Jinyang Palace Supervisor Pei Ji."

Lu Zhongming nodded slightly, he just woke up, he was still tired, and couldn't figure it out.Li Yuan glanced at several people, Li Shimin frowned deeply, and replied: "If you can turn hostility into friendship, you might as well agree to their terms."

Everyone knew that the Turks invaded at this time, and it was a great opportunity for the ages. The two deputy left guards in Jinyang who held the military power were killed by Li Yuan before they could integrate the army. Morale was extremely low, and in a real fight, it was hard to predict who would win or lose.

Moreover, Li Yuan had made up his mind to oppose the Sui Dynasty a few days ago, and he must not lose his vitality when facing the Turks. The best way is to appease the Turks and give them money.Lu Zhongming knew that peace talks were the only way to go. Li Yuan summoned so many people not to listen to whether or not to fight, but to let people come up with an idea on how to appease the Turkic people.

Whoever is qualified for this job and sends the Turks away will be credited with the first credit.

But this credit is not good, even Lu Zhongming himself did not dare to point out the topic hastily. When he was thinking, Pei Ji, who was sitting next to Li Yuan, found Lu Zhongming, looked him up and down, and whispered something to Li Yuan.Li Yuan still squinted his eyes, noncommittal.

"What are the conditions for peace negotiation?" Lu Zhongming asked.

Li Yuan said, "Three thousand silk, three thousand horses, eight thousand silver..."

Li Shimin heaved a sigh of relief, Lu Zhongming watched his reaction, and knew that this was not a problem for the Li family, but he was keenly aware that it must be more than that simple.

Sure enough, Li Yuan said again: "...to read with my own son as the Turkic prince, or to marry a daughter from Tuli Khan."

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the hall, and the air seemed to freeze.

Li Shimin stood quietly, as if making an extremely difficult decision.

Pei Ji said a few more words to Li Yuan, Li Yuan squinted his eyes, but didn't say a word, Lu Zhongming simply said it himself when he saw this.

"The son has a noble status, how can he go as a hostage?" Lu Zhongming said flatly, "Zhongming is willing to take the hostage for the son."

Lu Zhongming simply couldn't stand these two old fellows, and thought to himself, isn't that what you two are talking about?So what if I broke it for you?

As soon as these words came out, the hall shook immediately, Luo Shixin, Qin Qiong and Yu Chigong all looked at Lu Zhongming in disbelief, Li Shimin raised his head and looked at Lu Zhongming.

"I belong to the Li family." Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "How can I let someone who has nothing to do with me and the Li family benevolent to act as a proton? If Zhongming pretends to be me and stays in the Turkic army, I will Li Shimin will never be able to let go of it in this life! Don't mention this matter again!"

Lu Zhongming admired in his heart, just based on Li Shimin's words, he was not blind in vain.

Li Shimin said: "Father, the child is going now."

Li Yuan sighed, and said slowly: "Shimin, how could Daddy let you be a hostage? Don't mention this again. Daddy go talk to Khan."

As soon as the words came out, the countenance of several people changed at the same time. As the king of Tang, if Li Yuan was detained in the camp by Tuli, he would be in serious trouble. Lu Zhongming said: "King Tang, I have a plan."

Yu Chigong, who had been silent all this time, also took a step forward and said, "I also have a plan."

After saying that Lu Zhongming and Yu Chigong looked at each other, Lu Zhongming was a little surprised that Yu Chigong would take the initiative to offer advice. Since both of them have a solution, Yu Chigong said: "Teacher, please tell me."

Lu Zhongming pondered for a while, and said to several people: "The son came forward and entered the Turkic army as a hostage. Generals Yuchi, General Qin and General Luo each secretly followed with hundreds of Tiance troops. They left Jinyang and returned to Mobei on the halfway. Go to replace the son, after the replacement is successful, then use Taoist illusion to create a strange omen from heaven, emit light, apply some light and shadow special effects, ascend to the sky and leave..."

Everyone: "..."

When Lu Zhongming said this, he ignored the expressions of everyone present with his strong nerves, and said with a smile:

"I can't do anything else, but I can still play tricks. At that time, I will say that the sky is wrathful, or I can do whatever I want. If the Tang king wants someone from the Turks, everyone will run away. Naturally, I can't do it. This matter has to be done." Let it go."

Li Shimin immediately smiled and said: "Good way, let's go, let's torment Tuli Khan!"

But Yu Chigong said: "My strategy was taught by brother Li Jing, I also need your help, but it is simpler, do you want to listen to it?"

As soon as the words came out, several people looked at Li Jing and Yu Chigong.
