National teacher help

An hour passed, several people discussed for a long time, and finally Li Shimin led several people out of the hall, rubbed his eyebrows, and let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing his trembling footsteps, Lu Zhongming was obviously physically exhausted. He must have not slept last night, and today he was under such a heavy pressure, so he reached out his hand to stabilize him.

There was melancholy in Li Shimin's eyes, the two looked at each other, Li Shimin returned to his confident smile when he turned around, and said: "Generals, Shimin's life is entrusted to you all."

Several people nodded one after another, Li Shimin said again: "Brother-in-law."

Chai Shao understood and went to meet the Turkic envoy. The rest of the people dispersed and made preparations. Li Shimin walked in front, and Lu Zhongming walked behind him as if he was not awake.

"Why didn't you talk?" Li Shimin turned around and asked.

"Don't you want to think about something?" Lu Zhongming said.

"I'm very confused." Li Shimin sighed.

Lu Zhongming said: "Don't think about it, what are you thinking about so much? You are looking for trouble."

After questioning and answering, they both understood each other. Lu Zhongming knew that he was worried about the hostage. Li Shimin said: "If someone wants you to be a hostage, will your father let you go?"

Lu Zhongming thought for a while, and said, "My father...should give the other party all...all..."

Lu Zhongming couldn't imagine how his father would react when he encountered such a scene, and it would probably be quite exciting.

Li Shimin said: "I mean, what if even your father can't beat him?"

Lu Zhongming smiled and said: "There is no such assumption. Doesn't your father also plan to solve this problem by himself in the end? Why do people become stronger, so that they don't have to make choices. At least for now, I think he would rather go by himself than I don’t want to send any of your sons as a hostage.”

Li Shimin sighed: "But before becoming stronger, there will be many trade-offs. There was a moment just now, and I felt that this might be fate. When you stood up and spoke, I felt a little more secure in my heart."

"Fate is an excuse for the weak, and luck is the humble resignation of the strong." Lu Zhongming said: "Your life is incomparable, so don't worry, otherwise why are there so many people following you and giving advice for you? Put the bet on you, Make sure you don’t lose.”

"Sophistry." Li Shimin said angrily, "Are you a Taoist or a Mohist?"

Lu Zhongming smiled, Li Shimin stopped this topic, and the two walked towards the side hall.

In the corridor, there were several generals coming and going, and there were people who didn't know Lu Zhongming. People passing by would occasionally glance at him. Li Jing walked up quickly, divided the armor, and everyone changed into the battle robes of the Tiance Army.Li Shimin turned around and went in, a group of big men took off their clothes outside the corridor, all of them took off their outer robes and wore obscene clothes, all of them were among the best handsome men.

"Quick." Li Jing said, "Everyone put on this outfit."

The Tiance army's battle robe is mainly dark red and white, and the hair has to be tied up and fixed with a hairpin.

Yu Chigong changed the battle robe two or three times, Lu Zhongming was still holding the robe to look at it, not knowing how to wear it, Yu Chigong came over to help him fasten the tassel crown, Lu Zhongming simply opened his arms and let him manipulate.

"You just said that just now." Yuchi Gong said in a deep voice, "Aren't you afraid at all?"

Lu Zhongming asked inexplicably: "What are you afraid of? Are you talking about being a hostage for the people of the world?"

Qin Qiong inserted the Mo knife into the sheath, and said with a smile: "It should be Tuli Khan who is afraid. The little prince hangs out with Zhongming for a few days. How can there be peace in Turkic? I'm afraid the family will be wiped out."

Luo Shixin also teased: "The little idiot didn't go, the Turks escaped."

Lu Zhongming couldn't help laughing,

Yu Chigong knelt down on one knee and straightened Lu Zhongming's battle skirts, several chief military officers all changed into military uniforms, and Lu Zhongming said: "That's right, Tuli Khan should be glad that I didn't go, otherwise I could play them to death. "

Yu Chigong shook his head helplessly, when several people were sizing up each other, Chai Shao walked quickly across the corridor with one hand on the handle of the knife at his waist.When Chai Shao arrived, everyone stood up straight in unison, which showed his prestige.

Chai Shao glanced at everyone, and held a black cloth belt with his two fingers, and handed it to Lu Zhongming.Lu Zhongming took it in his mind, tied it between his eyebrows, and covered his eyes.

"Brothers." Chai Shao clasped his fists together and said, "I'll thank you all later."

Several people clasped their fists at Chai Shao in return, Li Shimin had already changed into a formal attire, turned out from the hall, and the generals followed Li Shimin one after another.

Lu Zhongming was blindfolded and could barely recognize his footsteps by hearing. He almost stumbled when he entered the door. Yu Chigong hurriedly pulled him. Everyone stood still and entered the side hall. Li Shimin smiled and said, "please come over here .”

Li Shimin's voice was a little trembling, and he could hear that he was also very nervous, so Lu Zhongming said: "It's okay, the big deal is that everyone will go with you."

Li Shimin took a deep breath, the open-air hall was very quiet, and several people stopped talking.With the sound of footsteps, the Turkic envoy came over with two attendants, sat down, was startled when he saw Li Shimin, and then said a few words to the people around him.

Li Shimin smiled, and the attendant translated: "My lord, Mr. Han Duo has waited too long."

Li Shimin said sincerely: "My father is sick in bed, and my elder brother is away. I will not be able to meet Khan."

The envoy waved his hand, said a few words, and the attendant said: "Master Handuo has visited the king of Tang just now, but he did not expect to be so ill. After all, Khan is still waiting outside the city, my son..."

Li Shimin pondered for a while, smiled, and said: "I must go, I just don't know, what kind of person is Khan?"

After the attendant translated, Han Duo laughed and chattered about his own emperor.

The entourage said: "Tuli Khan is the number one warrior on our grassland. There are [-] warriors under his tent, and there is no one who will not be loyal to him."

Li Shimin smiled faintly, and Han Duo said another word, and the attendant translated: "Tuli Khan was able to kill a tiger when he was eight years old, and led an army of one hundred thousand!"

Li Shimin hummed, took a sip of tea, and with a disapproving expression on his face, Li Jing said indifferently: "What is a fierce tiger? With this little ability, is it worthy of my family's heirs to follow?"

The entourage was startled, not knowing what to say, when seeing Li Shimin's calm face, Han Duo asked again in a puzzled manner, so he had to translate it truthfully, Han Duo became annoyed when he heard the words, and said another sentence with a sneer.This time, without waiting for an interpreter, Li Shimin asked, "Aside from killing the tiger, how about force?"

Han Duo sneered, stretched out a palm, and said something again, and the attendant said: "When Tuli Khan was ten years old, he could shoot a leaf fifty paces away."

Li Jing also sneered when he heard the words: "Bring the bow and arrow!"

The guards outside offered bows and arrows, Li Jing stood behind Li Shimin, pulled the longbow back with his backhand, and shot the arrow casually, the arrow flew to the gate of the opposite hall nearly fifty steps away, With a bang, it was firmly nailed to the center of the door knocker.

Now Han Duo knew that Li Shimin deliberately let his subordinates show their strength in front of him to kill him, so he looked Li Jing up and down, sneered and said something again.Sweat broke out on the forehead of the attendant, and he said to Li Shimin, "Master Handuo said, what does it mean to walk through Yang at a hundred paces? Tuli Khan gallops across the prairie on horseback, and can shoot down eagles flying across the sky with bows and arrows."

Li Shimin said with a smile: "That Tuli Khan can be regarded as the number one archer outside the Great Wall, but I'm afraid it's still a little bit worse than the few guards under my command."

Han Duo didn't know anything, so he went in, and asked his entourage in a murmur, but Li Jing said leisurely to the entourage: "Ask him, I'll make a bet with him, believe it or not, I can shoot the turret hanging on the eaves of the opposite turret. That bell?"

After the attendant said it, Han Duo was startled, turned his head to look, immediately laughed, and pointed at Li Jing with a mocking look.

The entourage said: "Master Handuo said that if he shoots down, he will eat the bell."

Li Jing smiled faintly, and drew his long bow. It was almost dusk, the setting sun was flowing golden, shining from west to east, making the six-story building on the opposite side shine golden. In the evening, hang quietly.

It was at least 120 steps away from where they were sitting, and it was at a high place, even if Li Guang was alive again, it would be impossible to hit him.However, just as Li Jing drew his bow, Lu Zhongming said, "Wait a minute."

Lu Zhongming stepped forward, stepped out, blindfolded, and asked in a deep voice: "Just ask, Master Handuo, would you like to take a gamble on whether I can shoot the bell for the second time after Li Jing shoots the bell flying?" In, the bell that flies through the air?"

Lu Zhongming's words were calm and light, even though the generals had discussed the matter earlier, when they heard him say it, they still couldn't help shouting "Hello" at the same time!

After hearing the translation, Nahanduo laughed again, thinking that the guard was crazy.

Only Li Shimin was sweating in his hands, but smiled and said: "I'm offended, General Lu is a good brother who grew up with me."

Han Duo looked surprised, as if he was listening to a scripture, and made a gesture, everyone knew that Han Duo was too lazy to laugh at them, and the words were obviously: "You shoot the arrow, just shoot the arrow, how is it possible?"

But Lu Zhongming spread out his left hand and said, "Use my lord's arrow."

Han Duo immediately ordered, and his attendant took a long Turkic arrow and handed it to Lu Zhongming.

The audience was silent, Li Jing took a step to the side, raised his head and looked into the distance, stretched his arms, drew a strong bow weighing 83 catties, and set up an arrow.

At that moment, everyone held their breath.

However, Lu Zhongming turned his head to the side, his eyes and eyebrows covered with black cloth moved a little, stood on the spot, with uneven footsteps, and drew the longbow that Yuchi respectfully gifted him.

A gust of wind blew by, and thousands of wind chimes rang together in Tang Palace. At that moment, Lu Zhongming recognized the position and adjusted the direction of the bow.

"middle!"

Li Jing looses the strings!

In just a short moment, it flew by quickly, and there was a ding in the distance, and the bell hanging on the eaves of the tall building opposite rang, drawing an arc and flying away.But Lu Zhongming let go of his fingers, and the second arrow flew out immediately after.

At that moment, the world was quiet and the sky was blue. The second arrow dragged an elegant trajectory, spun across half the distance of the school field, and caught up with the bell flying in the air!

In just a short thought, there was a second sound in the distance, a ding sound, the sound was extremely clear, and then the bell and the arrow fell at the same time and disappeared at the end of the high wall.

Han Duo opened his mouth and was silent for a while, Lu Zhongming and Li Jing drew their bows at the same time.

In a short while, the horse quickly entered the Tang Palace, and the man on the horse picked up the bell. The arrow was deeply embedded in the bell. It was his own long arrow that the Turkic messenger had given to Lu Zhongming earlier.

"Please use it slowly." Lu Zhongming said lightly.

Everyone laughed, and Han Duo didn't know how to respond for a long time. He stared at the bell and the long arrow. The previous arrow went away very quickly and was already stuck in the bell. Han Duo sized up Lu Zhongming with frightened eyes.

Li Shimin looked at him with a smile, and Lu Zhongming said again: "I don't know how your Majesty Khan shoots the moving target?"

Now Han Duo couldn't boast anymore, but Lu Zhongming said coldly: "In the dark night where you can't see your fingers, in an enemy line of 10 people, I can take off the head of the opponent's general with just one arrow." A malicious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he asked again: "You might as well go back and ask Tuli Khan, do you believe I have this ability? If you don't believe me, I will demonstrate it to you again?"

"Zhongming, don't be rude." Li Shimin said with a smile.

The entourage murmured and translated, and Han Duo's expression changed drastically when he heard the words. Lu Zhongming said "demonstration", didn't he mean to use Tuli Khan as a target?Immediately, his gaze was vacillating, obviously timid. At this moment, Chai Shao, the leader of the generals, finally spoke, and said in a deep voice, "Say something to this Turkic man for me..."

Li Shimin wanted to stop him, but Chai Shao said: "My son is surrounded by capable people. General Yuchi is strong enough to fight against thousands of people. Generals Qin and Luo used to be the commanders-in-chief of the Sui Dynasty... I, Chai Shao, must be Khan because of my name in Chang'an." I've heard that too."

"Both sides take a step back, as long as there is someone in Turkic who can beat the two generals' arrow skills, the prince will be willing to serve Khan for ten years in the past." Chai Shao said: "If the entire Turkic people can't find someone who can match the capable person in Tang Wang's mansion." For a warrior who is more inferior, it will be difficult to obey."

The attendant translated, Handuo put away the long arrow and the bell, full of doubts, just wanted to get out of this place quickly, Li Shimin comforted him: "General Chai is upright, please don't take it personally, Shimin's father is sick in bed... ...Elder brother, younger brother can't serve father..." He sighed.He also said: "But Shimin is very grateful for Khan's kindness. Why don't you let Shimin go out of the city later to meet Tuli Khan. As for whether to go or not, we can talk about it at that time."

Speaking of this, Handuo no longer had the arrogance before, so he could only sneer, nod, and was about to leave with the arrow in his hand, Li Shimin personally sent him to the gate of the mansion, Handuo got into the car, and ran away in a hurry .

Before the matter was over, Li Shimin turned around and said, "Prepare to make peace, and go meet the other party Khan for a while."

Li Yuan had already figured it out that it was impossible to do anything, and it was unreasonable to send his son out for peace, so he prepared ten carts of gold, silver, cloth and silk, and a box of night pearls. The generals began to prepare busyly. He yawned and asked sleepily, "Can you take off the blindfold?"

"Act again." Li Jing said.

Blindfolded, Lu Zhongming couldn't stop feeling sleepy, and felt that he was about to lose his hold. However, before the hour of burning incense, the crowd followed Li Shimin out of the city, clamoring and huddling.At that time, the gate of Jinyang City was opened, and [-] Turkic cavalry outside the city were staring at them. As soon as the gate opened, Li Shimin came out in style with only six generals, and there were ten chariots and salutes behind him.

Li Shimin was stationed in front of the opposing team, and said with a smile, "Li Shimin is here! Where is Khan? See Tuli Khan!"

An order came out from the opposing formation, and the gate of the camp opened. Li Shimin entered a [-]-army army and was still wading through no one's land.

The Turkic people set up a banquet at the west of the camp, Li Shimin bowed his hands and saw Tuli Khan, the person standing behind Tuli Khan was the messenger Handuo.After the two sides exchanged a few pleasantries, Li Shimin sat down happily.

"His Majesty Khan asked, how is Tang Wang?" the translator asked.

Li Shimin frowned slightly, with a worried expression on his face, Tu Li said a few words of comfort, raised his eyes from time to time, glanced at the group of generals behind Li Shimin, and his gaze stayed on Lu Zhongming's face.

"The Central Plains is in chaos." Li Shimin sighed: "My brother has gone to Daxing to try to quell the rebellion. My father is sick at this moment. Shimin really dare not refuse Khan's kindness, but..."

Han Duo leaned close to Tuli Khan's ear and whispered a few words, Tuli nodded slowly, stared at Yuchi Gong with falcon-like eyes, and finally said a word, motioning for translation.

The translation said: "His Majesty Khan is grateful for the filial piety of the son, so he will not take the son back outside the Great Wall."

Li Shimin laughed, nodded and said, "Thank you Khan for your understanding."

The translator also said: "Since the king of Tang asked Khan for peace, Khan will not conquer Bingzhou again. He will protect you and Bingzhou for ten years. After ten years, the son of the world must remember today's promise and come to Mobei in person to fulfill today's promise. about."

Li Shimin hesitated for a while, then nodded and said: "I must keep this promise."

Tuli Khan had a hooked nose and deep-set eyes. He raised a palm, and Li Shimin gave him a high-five, agreeing to a three-palm agreement.

The entourage took the sheepskin and pen and ink again, and the two parties signed a ten-year peace agreement in Bingzhou. At this point, everyone was relieved.Li Shimin drank three more glasses of wine with Tuli Khan, and then led the generals to leave.

Back in Jinyang City, Lu Zhongming immediately took off the blindfold and asked, "How is it? Let me see?"

Li Jing, Qin Qiong, and Luo Shixin left as soon as they entered the city, presumably to mobilize troops to prevent the other party from cheating. Li Shimin went to the top of the city, while Lu Zhongming leaned on the city wall and looked out.

It was dusk and the sky was dark. I saw that the Turkic army had drawn out and set out. They were well-trained. They must have really let Jinyang go. Li Shimin's back was covered with sweat, and his robe was soaked with sweat.Chai Shao frowned deeply and said, "How can you promise him a ten-year contract?"

Li Shimin said with a smile: "It's okay, even if you really want to go, it's still worthwhile to have the ten-year buffer to save Bingzhou from war."

Lu Zhongming also smiled at Chai Shao: "It's not a hindrance, it's not a hindrance, Tuli can't live that long, and he will die in seven or eight years at most."

Li Shimin said: "You know?"

Lu Zhongming yawned and said, "Of course, this is a professional skill."

Li Shimin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, the two watched for a while, and after the Turkic army had all withdrawn, several people went back to the mansion, Li Shimin went to see Li Yuan with the peace agreement, Lu Zhongming was so sleepy that he couldn't even walk steadily, Yu Chigong He carried him back to sleep.

Lu Zhongming fell asleep as soon as he returned, and Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin also came back. They were fine, and they fell asleep as soon as they lay down. For a while, four men slept in random places in the hall, and the scene was chaotic.

When he got up the next day, Lu Zhongming's feet were all empty. He saw Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin playing chess. There were many rewards piled up in the hall, including fine brocades and bedding. Lu Zhongming was dizzy from hunger. Dazed, crawled over, turned around, looked for a while, but couldn't find anything to eat.Seeing that he was awake, Luo Shixin took out a food box from under the table, which contained meat and vegetables, and was full of rice. Lu Zhongming wrapped himself in silk, picked up the food box, and started eating.

Qin Qiong said with a smile: "Eat less, Tang Wang treats dinner tonight."

Lu Zhongming had already emptied the food box before Qin Qiong said, but was speechless.

"Where's Yuchi?"

Luo Shixin: "I went to run some errands. Li Jiancheng is back today. His youngest son, Li Yuanji, is on his way."

Lu Zhongming thought to himself that Li Yuan had finally called his sons back, maybe the next step would be to raise troops against the Sui Dynasty, Yu Chigong had been by his side these days, and when he was gone for a while, he suddenly felt quite uncomfortable.

"Isn't Yuchi one of Li Shimin's?" Lu Zhongming asked, "How can I find Jiancheng?"

"It's something." Qin Qiong said casually: "It's you, what do you say?"

Lu Zhongming: "?"

Qin Qiong said: "The big man told you several times, do you like him?"

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Luo Shi said: "Would you like to be with him, at least let someone explain."

Lu Zhongming found out why the attitudes of these two guys suddenly took a big turn, and asked, "Don't you guys dislike him?"

Qin Qiong smiled, Luo Shixin dropped a piece on the chessboard, and hummed: "I didn't like him very much at first, but because he really protects my little brother, I reluctantly do it."

Qin Qiong said: "Yesterday when you said that you were going to be the hostage for Shimin, he really stood up sincerely and spoke for you. The big man is still good. When we leave today, please ask us brothers to ask you What exactly is in his mind, he said, he doesn't know if you like him or not, I'm afraid it's all his wishful thinking."

Lu Zhongming immediately understood that Yu Chigong finally won the favor of Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin because of his protection.

Luo Shidao: "I don't force you, but whether you like it or not, you have to make it easier for others, and say something. Men don't write, let alone others almost lost their lives for you."

Qin Qiong: "Well, even if you don't like it, don't delay Heitantou, lest debts will snowball, more and more, isn't that the truth?"

"I..." Lu Zhongming said, "Let me think about it again."

Qin Qiong: "..."

Luo Shixin: "..."

Qin Qiong: "Where is there so much deliberation, you are not long-winded, general."

Lu Zhongming said: "But I don't seem to like him..."

Luo Shixin made a move, and Qin Qiong said: "Then don't get tired of him, and send him back. What does it look like? Draw the cart and send it again."

"Come on... Hurry up..." Lu Zhongming hurriedly directed Luo Shidao, Luo Shixin quickly started, and Lu Zhongming said again: "But I think this is not good..."

"My lord, you chased him away, are you still pestering you? Is there anything good?" Luo Shixin said casually, "That step just now doesn't count...I'm going to go..."

Qin Qiong: "Walking, right? Draw again, draw again."

Luo Shixin roared angrily: "If you do it again, we will break up the gang! This day will be impossible!"

Lu Zhongming immediately echoed: "That's right! It's too much!"

Qin Qiong: "..."

That afternoon, it was Lu Zhongming and Qin Qiong who played chess instead. However, Lu Zhongming and Luo Shixin, two stinky chess baskets, could not beat Qin Qiong no matter how they fought. When someone came to invite dinner at dusk, the three realized that it had been too long, so they hurriedly changed their clothes and hurried to the game. Eat in the main hall.

Today is the time when Li Yuanzhi is full of complacency, all the political opponents in Bingzhou City have been overthrown, and the Turkic disaster is gone again, Li Shimin signed a ten-year peace treaty for him, if we don't make trouble now, when will we wait?The Tang Palace was brightly lit, as if it was a festival, all the diners were invited to a banquet, and the merit ranking began. Three sons and a son-in-law sat firmly in front of the hall.

There are more than 70 guests in the Tang Palace, and only [-] people can enter the main hall. Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, and Lu Zhongming are being favored, and it is no problem to enter the hall.

There were many guests in the main hall, apart from his own family members, there were also many close friends of Li Yuan, Jinyang Palace Supervisor Pei Ji, Wei Wei Shaoqing, and several county magistrates in Bingzhou were all Li Yuan's confidantes, led by Chai Shao, Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng. Wait for someone to talk with you.

The three of them were well-dressed, and as soon as they came to the hall, they attracted the attention of many people. At that time, Qin Qiong was facing the wind, even though Luo Shixin had changed his martial robes into formal attire, he still had a stern look, and Lu Zhongming had dark eyebrows and bright eyes, very handsome. When people arrive in front of the main hall, maidservants invite them into the hall.

As soon as Li Shimin saw the three people coming, he put down what he was doing for a while and came over to say hello to the three people.Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin were his favorite generals, and they chatted and laughed a few words, Li Shimin winked at Lu Zhongming, motioned to go out and said, Lu Zhongming understood, followed him out of the hall, and stood in an empty corner.

"I happen to have something to look for you too." Lu Zhongming said.

Li Shimin smiled and said, "I've had enough sleep, there's something I want to ask you about."

"You go ahead," Lu Zhongming said.

Li Shimin thought for a while and said, "What do you think of Yu Chigong?"

Lu Zhongming got a headache when he heard it, and said expressionlessly: "I thought you had something serious, forget it."

"This is a serious matter." Li Shimin said solemnly: "My respected and beloved brother, the person whom I miss so much, has not answered him all this time, making him sleepless, restless, isn't it considered a serious matter?"

Lu Zhongming laughed. For some reason, he had a different feeling to Li Shimin than to Luo Shixin Qin Qiong. They seemed to be friends who talked about everything, and knew that no matter what he said, the other party would not get angry.

"If you think he's annoying." Li Shimin said: "I just transferred him. After all, this time, he also made great contributions to me. If my father wants to raise an army, he must rely on him to help, but he is not willing to lead the army... "

Lu Zhongming understood that when Li Shimin sent Yu Chigong to his side, the reason was to let Yu Chigong assist him, now that Yu Chigong has made up for his mistakes, and it is time to employ someone again, he must be returned.

Li Shimin said again: "If you don't like him, I support you to make it clear. If you like him, I will make some adjustments in personnel arrangements."

"You..." Lu Zhongming couldn't laugh or cry: "Your atmosphere is too open."

Li Shimin smiled and said: "My ancestors also had marriage relations with Xianbei people, let alone say what you like, what's wrong?"

Before Lu Zhongming came, he knew the customs of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. If it was another era, there would be all kinds of rituals and defenses, and all kinds of secrets. Unexpectedly, the Sui and Tang Dynasties were full of tricks, chasing and intercepting him. Li Shimin, Luo Shixin and the group helped make the bubble.

"I'll think about it." Lu Zhongming replied.

"Don't think about it." Li Shimin said: "What's wrong with Jingde? If you miss him, there will never be another person who likes you so much in the whole world."

Lu Zhongming was about to cry and said, "I won't play with you anymore!"

When he was talking, Li Jing was passing by to enter the hall, when he suddenly saw two teenagers tugging in a place where no one was around, Lu Zhongming threw down his sleeves and wanted to leave, but Li Shimin was pulling his clothes from behind, Li Jing came over and clasped his fists.

"Daoist Lu." Li Jing said, "There is something I want to tell you."

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Lu Zhongming thought to himself, maybe even Li Jing wants to speak for Yu Chigong.

Li Shimin laughed behind him, and Li Jing said: "Zhuo Jing has heard about Daoist Lu's name for a long time. On the third day of March, during the Shangsi Festival, I want to invite Daoist Lu to gather by the Fen River. We will cook some small dishes, and we will drink and chat by the river. I don't know Daoist Lu. Is it a compliment."

"Red..." Lu Zhongming became energetic when he heard that the food was ready, and hurriedly said: "Mrs. Li's craftsmanship, of course I have to try it."

Li Shimin said: "Okay, Li Jing, why don't you invite me?"

Li Jing said: "If your son is free and willing to come, you should welcome him."

Lu Zhongming thought about it for a while, and asked again: "Who else invited?"

Li Jing explained: "It's just a family banquet, apart from you and me, Zhuo Jing and Brother Jing De, there are no guests."

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Sure enough, he went around and was still helping Yu Chigong as a lobbyist, Lu Zhongming nodded speechlessly, and Li Shimin was laughing like crazy behind him.

After Li Jing left, Li Shimin said, "I know you like him too."

"You know again?" Lu Zhongming said.

Li Shimin said: "Because when you talk to him, you look different from others. You rarely joke with Jingde in front of us, don't you?"

After Lu Zhongming was reminded like this, he vaguely realized this point, as if he and Yu Chigong were always polite when other people were around, but when they left, the two became rude to each other.

"Okay." Lu Zhongming took a deep breath and said, "I... think about it carefully during dinner, and I will definitely give him an answer tonight."

After that, Lu Zhongming saw Li Jiancheng coming from a distance, and didn't want to deal with him, so he turned to leave, but Li Shimin said, "What do you have to say to me? You haven't said anything yet."

"Ah, that's right!" Lu Zhongming just remembered that it was an urgent matter, and hurriedly turned around and said, "I've been thinking about it for a few days, and I have to leave Bingzhou for a trip."

"What?" Li Shimin frowned immediately.

Lu Zhongming said earnestly: "Now all the troubles have been solved, your father is going to raise troops too, from Bingzhou to Daxing, there is nothing wrong with me..."

"How can it be nothing to you?" Li Shimin said displeasedly: "Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin also said that they want you to follow them and serve as the vanguard..."

"Listen to me." Lu Zhongming said: "You will not have any difficulties until you reach Daxing. I must go to Yangzhou first to get back one of my things."

"Is it the magic weapon claimed by Yang Guang?" Li Shimin said.

Lu Zhongming was startled and said, "You also know?"

Li Shimin nodded, and Lu Zhongming said again: "That thing is very important to me. After entering Daxing, there will be a lot of trouble. I have to get it back as soon as possible, and it can't fall into the hands of ordinary people."

Li Shimin said: "No, what's the use of the magic weapon? I will try to get it back for you. The world is in such chaos now, how can you go by yourself?"

When Lu Zhongming was thinking about whether to tell the truth about his mission, Li Shimin said: "If you really want to go, I will ask Jingde to accompany you."

Lu Zhongming: "Are you still bringing bundled sales! Forget it, let me think about it."

Without dragon scales, when the Li family hits Daxing, there will be many Buddhist temples inside. I don’t know how many big bosses are waiting for me. people come.

"Brother." Li Shimin said with a smile.

Li Jiancheng nodded to his younger brother and said, "Mr. Lu, take a step to speak."

Li Shimin wisely said: "I'll accompany the guests, I'll go first."

Lu Zhongming yelled Li Shimin in his heart!You are too mean!I came all the way here to help you think about everything, but you actually left me to your elder brother like this!
