Suddenly, when the Sunlight Bodhisattva raised his hand, the scorching sun golden wheel pressed towards Lu Zhongming!

This is really the best timing, the clouds all over the sky are pressing on Lu Zhongming, more than half of his celestial power is used to resist this celestial change, the light wheel is blazing, and the moment the sun appears, it is the time when the Sunshine Bodhisattva's Buddha power is at its peak .

Lu Zhongming narrowed his eyes, laughed, and roared brazenly: "Come on! Who is afraid of whom!"

Lu Zhongming's angry shout resounded through the clear sky!Sunlight Bodhisattva said kindly, "Daoist Jin Lin, I will prove the Dharma with you."

Lu Zhongming sneered and said, "It's because I missed a move, and I'm under the control of others."

After that, Lu Zhongming no longer cares about the celestial phenomena and the battlefield on earth, and withdraws all his celestial powers!

In an instant, the cloud rolled up again, covering the sky, the sun was dark, the rain was thundering, and the Sunlight Bodhisattva never expected that Lu Zhongming's celestial power to shine on his own people would withdraw as soon as he said it, and his expression changed immediately!

With two celestial changes, the army on the battlefield didn't know what to do, but Yu Chigong took the lead and shouted: "It's up to us! Charge!"

Thousands of troops shouted again, the sound rang in Lu Zhongming's ears, and it gave him infinite strength. He rolled up his robe sleeves, folded his hands, and gritted his teeth to roll up all the blood and mud on the entire battlefield. As a raging mad dragon, he rushed towards the Dharma image of Sunlight Bodhisattva.

Shura's purgatory blood immediately shattered the Buddha's light, and the Sunlight Bodhisattva shouted: "Daoist Jinlin! Don't be obsessed with it!"

Immediately, a gorgeous five-color sun lotus bloomed in the hands of Sunlight Bodhisattva, waved towards the Asura blood dragon, and the entire sky of Huoyi City presented a spectacular scene. He put his hood on the Sunlight Bodhisattva.

The wave of blood rolled in, and the Sunlight Bodhisattva slapped it with one hand, and the huge wave rolled back immediately. However, the moment the wave of blood receded, Lu Zhongming appeared in the sky with a radiant dharma body, and came to him silently, and turned sideways. The palm is clapped out, and it is in contact with the Buddha's palm of the Sunlight Bodhisattva.

It was just a touch and then retracted, the Dharma images in mid-air of each other retreated abruptly, turning into light spots and disappearing. Lu Zhongming retracted the dharma body, and was hit by a huge force. He staggered back, supported the tree, spit out a mouthful of blood, and then wiped the blood with the back of his hand.

"Hey, hey, hey..." Lu Zhongming smiled slyly, absorbed the power of the Sunlight Bodhisattva that had been pulled over, turned it into a ball of light, and then pushed it out with both hands.

Glory to the earth, this time, the dark clouds completely dissipated, Li Shimin's army attacked Huoyi City, and on the other side, Lu Zhongming fell under a tree, exhausted.

He was picked up by Yu Chigong that day, the dark clouds and rain subsided, Huo Yi's government was in chaos, all the generals who participated in the battle got cold and fell seriously ill, the only ones who were okay were Chai Shao and Lu Zhongming.

Although Lu Zhongming was lying down, he kept vigilant all the time, for fear that the Sunshine Bodhisattva would make a comeback.However, that afternoon, a big white dog walked into the official mansion.Lu Zhongming was taking a nap, and the big white dog squatted aside and wagged its tail.

"Listen?" Lu Zhongming discovered it.

After meeting Min Gong last time, Lu Zhongming vaguely guessed that Min Gong had a connection with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. The Ksitigarbha Orb, Tin Staff and Divine Dog Listening are one of the three magic tools of the Nether Sect Master.Now that the dog came again, it meant that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva had some news to convey on his behalf.

"Want to take me somewhere?" Lu Zhongming asked.

The big dog opened its mouth and made a sound.

"There is a meeting in Buddhism." Di heard: "Let me come and tell you that Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva is in Chang'an, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is in Luoyang, and Manjusri and Samantabhadra are in Yangzhou."

Lu Zhongming smiled and said, "Want to invite me to meet for tea?"

Di Ting stared at Lu Zhongming, and said: "You have succeeded in proving the Dharma, and the two sages of Sunlight and Moonlight are willing to withdraw. If you can defeat all the great Bodhisattvas, Medicine Master Tathagata, Amitabha, and Sakyamuni will come to discuss the Tao with you. Please do it yourself."

Lu Zhongming's heart trembled, it seemed that Buddhism could finally sit still.

Guan Zizai, Samantabhadra and Manjusri are all recognized, but they are not very afraid, only Mahasthama Bodhisattva... Lu Zhongming asked: "What are their names in the mortal world?"

Truth turned his head to the side and replied: "All Bodhisattvas appear in the form of Dharma."

Even Ksitigarbha does not know who the incarnations of Bodhisattvas are, and their opinions must not be unified.Going up to attack the army, and then to attack the diplomatic relations, Lu Zhongming immediately had an idea.It is completely possible to use the distance meter to defeat each of them, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

After listening to the message, he left the room, followed by Lu Zhongming, the sun outside made people a little dizzy.As soon as the heavy rain left, the heat came, and the cicadas on the trees began to sing crazily, making people sweat profusely.Lu Zhongming looked around in the official mansion, and then went up to the city, only to see that the water outside the city receded, and the corpses were spread all over the field, dyeing the soil lavender.

After the killing, there was a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. Both sides put [-] lives into this first confrontation.

Lu Zhongming was about to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth and appease the spirit of war, but he saw the long-lost old man appearing under the city, holding a tin staff in one hand, and leading a white dog, to save the dead in the wilderness.

The frenzy of winning the battle gradually subsided, and the terrified people found that Li Yuan hadn't done anything, so they gradually calmed down.Unlike the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty, as soon as Li Yuan entered Huoyi, he sent people to open an official storehouse to help, and let the past go.If the Sui army came in, they would definitely arrest someone to make a scapegoat.And if the peasant rebels come in, they will fight and rob privately, and they will never tire of it.

After a day passed, the whole city became quiet and orderly, and it was not at all obvious that a war had just been experienced.

Lu Zhongming sat high on the top of the wall, looking out at the wilderness where corpses lay everywhere. It seemed that there were two worlds inside and outside the city.

Putting a hand on his shoulder, Lu Zhongming turned around and saw that it was Li Shimin.

"I've been looking for you for a long time, what are you doing here?" Li Shimin asked.

"I didn't do anything, just sit around." Lu Zhongming asked, "Is your injury better? I can't see that your martial arts are still very good."

"It's not the same as you." Li Shimin smiled and said, "My brother-in-law taught me."

Lu Zhongming moved a little to the side, and the night wind blew, and the two sat quietly.

"Lieutenant Liu Wuzhou of Mayi Yingyang has rebelled." Li Shimin said: "Kill the prefect, and now the Turkic people are being lured into the customs, cutting off our food and grass back."

Lu Zhongming waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, Liu Wenjing will settle him down, and you won't face him for at least three years."

Li Shimin looked at him, and nodded after a long time.

"Duke Min treated our wounds." Li Shimin said, "Who were you fighting with when the city was broken today?"

Lu Zhongming said: "A master of Buddhism."

Li Shimin obviously had lingering fears, and said, "I sent people to investigate. In the Dari Temple in the city, there used to be a Master Puzhao who passed away this morning when he broke the city."

Lu Zhongming's heart moved, and he asked, "How old are you?"

"75." Li Shimin said, "Here, look."

Li Shimin motioned him to look to the west, it was already night, the monks in the temple in the city came out carrying a pair of wooden coffins, and the common people carried lanterns, going out of the city to bury the old monk.

"When Song Laosheng was guarding the city." Li Shimin said: "He protected the whole city. If it wasn't for him, many people should have escaped. Shall I let them go back?"

"No." Lu Zhongming hurriedly stopped, "Let them be cremated."

Li Shimin said: "Are you not getting along well with people from the Buddhist sect?"

"They are enemies, not friends." Lu Zhongming replied, "But I admire them, this is compassion."

Li Shimin nodded, apparently he came here to inform Lu Zhongming of this matter, and said: "I issued a password to prevent everyone from talking about your spells during the siege."

"Yes." Lu Zhongming said, "Thank you."

Mr. Min treated all the generals under King Tang's command once, and cured many of them with his unique ointment. Lu Zhongming knew that Li Shimin would always have a hard time dealing with such situations. After all, he didn't want to offend Buddhists, let alone For now, Fomen has a good impression on him.

"Master!" Lu Zhongming yelled to the city from a distance: "How about a drink?"

Gong Min turned his head back without saying a word. After saving the sacrificed soldiers, he clasped his palms together towards Lu Zhongming from a distance, bowed, and Lu Zhongming returned the salute earnestly.

Min Gong turned around and disappeared into the wilderness.

"Where is he going?" Li Shimin asked.

"It should be Chang'an." Lu Zhongming said: "Your next battle."

Li Shimin said: "The next city is Hedong."

Lu Zhongming shook his head and looked at him with a smile, with the deep meaning of "you will know when the time comes" in his eyes. Li Shimin said: "Take a day off and come over tomorrow to discuss matters. Brother and father are thinking about the next plan."

Lu Zhongming nodded, Li Shimin stood up again, and said, "I'm going to comfort the soldiers."

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin left the city quickly and visited his generals and soldiers one by one.Lu Zhongming sat alone, and asked into the darkness, "Is your injury healed?"

Yu Chigong came out and said, "It's windy at night, let's go back."

Lu Zhongming got up and followed Yu Chigong back to the government.

From this day on, news from Taiyuan arrived one after another. First, Captain Yingyang Liu Wuzhou rebelled, shocking everyone, but gradually calmed down under Li Shimin's comfort. Khan.

Li Yuan regretted that he should have listened to Lu Zhongming and let Li Jiancheng guard Taiyuan. However, Lu Zhongming knew that Liu Wuzhou's rebellion was inevitable in history. If Li Jiancheng did not attack Huoyi, there might still be many variables.For several days in a row, the Tang army organized food and grass in Huoyi City, preparing to march into Hedong.

Guarding Hedong is another tough Sui general, Qu Tutong.Several people discussed and discussed, but there was no sure way to win, and the troops at hand were greatly consumed in this battle, so they had to be replenished on the spot, and then wait for the food and grass to arrive.Liu Wenjing was sent back to Taiyuan to negotiate with the Turkic people, and everyone waited anxiously for the news of his return.

But Lu Zhongming knew that there was no big problem, so he idled around in Huoyi City every day.

Li Yuan won this battle, and his reputation reached its peak. Three days later, the gates of Huoyi City were opened wide, and there was an endless stream of people coming to join him every day.The three members of the Li family, father and son, have been so busy that they have been receiving martyrs from morning to night every day.

For ten days in a row, the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Lu Zhongming still led his former army to join the army and lived in the same courtyard with Yu Chigong. He walked around wearing white shorts and thin trousers every day. , Re-incorporated soldiers and horses, sweating profusely is very uncomfortable.

But Yu Chigong didn't say a word, and he didn't talk to Lu Zhongming almost every day. One day, when he entered his room, he saw a row of small wooden signs hanging, and asked, "What is this?"

The small wooden plaques are lined up in a row, from right to left, they are: Moonlight, Sunlight, Cihang, Puxian, Manjusri, Mahasthama, Medicine Buddha, Amitabha, and Shazun.

There is a cross on each of the wooden signs of Moonlight and Sunlight, and "shi" is written on the sunlight.

"Oh, that's the progress of the task." Lu Zhongming got the school list, got up and said, "Let's go."

Yu Chigong narrowed his eyes and asked, "What is the progress of the mission?"

"The progress of overthrowing the BOSS." Lu Zhongming said: "There are nine in total, and now two are resolved, leaving seven."

Yuchi Gong: "???"

Lu Zhongming followed Yu Chigong out, and Yu Chigong suddenly asked again: "What about after everything is settled?"

"Let's go home." Lu Zhongming replied, thinking that you won't be in love with me anymore anyway, so why not go home, stay here to make trouble.

Yu Chigong stopped talking, and came to the school grounds with Lu Zhongming. The Xiaowei Battalion had suffered a lot in the siege half a month ago, and Li Shimin gave him priority to replenish his troops. However, Yu Chigong's temper was very bad that day. First, the recruits gave lectures, and then they punched and kicked, scolding everyone.

The recruits all know Yuchi Gong's prestige, and he has a bit of Stockholm syndrome. After being attacked by Yuchi Gong, he still has a look of admiration. Lu Zhongming naturally knows what he is thinking, but he is always difficult to speak.Anyway, Yu Chigong himself said "forget it", he still wanted to stay in the world for decades.

After all, the food in the world is really delicious, and I won’t be able to eat it when I go back to Jin’ao Island.

Everyone is training, and every day when they go out, they can see either Qin Qiong or Luo Shixin's team running or learning martial arts. Yu Chigong is like eating gunpowder all day long, never smiles, and speaks with a few words. .

"Just bow your head to him and be soft." Li Shimin said: "Wouldn't it be better to give him some face?"

Lu Zhongming said inexplicably: "Why! He ignored me first."

Li Shimin said: "One of you joins the army and the other is the commander. If you don't do your business and make trouble here, how can I fight a war? You are not conducive to my subordinates fighting with a happy mood. It is easy to fight without a happy mood. If you lose a battle, you will be punished if you lose a battle, and it will be easier to lose a battle after being punished!"

Lu Zhongming said: "But if you think about it from another angle, if he is in a bad mood, he will be more aggressive in fighting and so on. Isn't that better? It's you, why don't you talk to your brother?"

Li Shimin: "..."

After Li Jiancheng fell into a fight under the city that day, everyone stopped talking about it, but everyone knew it well. Lu Zhongming always felt sour when he discovered Li Jiancheng's weak side.After the city was broken, Li Shimin's prestige increased greatly, while Li Jiancheng returned to his usual appearance without mentioning anything.

Everyone knew about the relationship between the two brothers, and they knew it tacitly, and no one dared to say more.After all, it's the Li family's business, and it's not time to stand in line yet.However, once they start to stand in line, there will inevitably be a bloodbath between the two brothers.

And Lu Zhongming is the only one who knows the final result.

Lu Zhongming looked into Li Shimin's eyes and found that he was also very smart, so smart that he was a little scary.

The look of loneliness in Li Shimin's eyes was fleeting, and he shook his head and said: "No, I don't know what to say to him, and I feel that nothing is right. After entering the city, we have hardly spoken. Give it to me, let me train."

Lu Zhongming nodded, and Li Shimin said: "But when I went to see my father in the middle of the night, I passed by the back garden and saw him."

Lu Zhongming frowned, Li Shimin said: "He was kneeling in the back garden, crying very hard."

"General Chai has brought back Li Jing's traitor." Li Jiancheng's voice suddenly sounded not far away, and the two were startled. Li Shimin recovered his face in an instant, and frowned, "Where is it?"

"In the prison." Li Jiancheng looked at the two as usual, standing and watching the two, with Qin Qiong at his side.

Lu Zhongming didn't know if he heard it, and said, "I'll inform Jingde."

Li Shimin nodded, Lu Zhongming left with a lot of thoughts, and Li Shimin followed Li Jiancheng.

In the afternoon, several generals gathered in the prison cell, Li Jing was beaten with scars all over his body, Yu Chigong just took a look at him, and said in a deep voice: "Li Yaoshi."

Li Jing looked up at them, Li Shimin sighed and said, "You... Li Jing."

Li Jiancheng is not here, Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Lu Zhongming, and Yu Chigong are all from Li Shimin's faction.Li Shimin asked in a low voice, but Lu Zhongming asked Qin Qiong in a low voice, "Did he hear that?"

Qin Qiong whispered: "I didn't hear it, I only saw you discussing things, what are you talking about?"

While talking, Li Shimin took the time to glance at them.

Li Jing said in a low voice: "I owe you, don't need to say too much, just cut it off."

Li Shimin sighed, then turned around and hammered the iron fence hard, making a loud noise. Yu Chigong looked at Lu Zhongming as if asking for help, and they understood that at this moment, only Lu Zhongming could influence Li Yuan and save Li Jing's life.

Lu Zhongming made a circle with his hands, which means that the promise you promised to jump through the fire hoop to show me last time has not been fulfilled.

Yu Chigong immediately lost his temper, took a deep breath, and a look of anxiety appeared between his brows and eyes.

"How did you get it back?" Lu Zhongming asked.

"Chai Shao's subordinates are in ambush in Chang'an." Li Shimin said, "Drugged him and tied him back."

No matter who happened to this, it was unbearable, not to mention Li Shimin, a leader who valued loyalty, but if Li Jing really got his head off the ground, then there would be a series of changes in the future.The key is that Li Jing no longer wants to survive, so Lu Zhongming said, "Jing De and I will stay with him."

Li Shimin nodded, upset, Lu Zhongming knew that he wanted to save Li Jing's life, but in this way, he would have to confront Li Jiancheng.

But Li Jiancheng felt like he was determined to kill Li Jing. Lu Zhongming and Li Shimin looked at each other, and Li Shimin also had a pleading look in his eyes. Lu Zhongming nodded slightly, and Li Shimin led the people away. Went in and sat down in the cell.

"Is there any wine?" Yu Chigong asked: "Find us some wine, and some side dishes would be even better."

Lu Zhongming had no choice but to go out to buy wine and side dishes for the two of them, wondering why Yu Chigong always liked Li Jing so much, and whether these two guys had some kind of adultery.

When he returned to the mansion, he saw Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng having the most serious quarrel in history. Li Jiancheng almost roared: "As long as I am here, this matter will never be tolerated!"

Li Shimin took a step back, many generals in the mansion came to persuade him, even Duan Zhixuan came out, almost all the elders of the two brothers present, Li Shimin didn't dare to argue with his elder brother anymore, so he nodded and left.

Lu Zhongming just glanced at it, then went to the dungeon, Yu Chigong and Li Jing were sitting side by side, Li Jing looked very embarrassed, with disheveled hair, shaking his head and smiling wryly.

"I'm also thinking about whether to leave here." Yu Chigong said: "It's boring, it's boring to do anything."

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Lu Zhongming put down the wine, but Li Jing said, "Let's talk, how is the priest doing?"

Lu Zhongming suddenly found it very funny, they had a strange relationship with each other, they had fought each other, they were friends, and they also admired each other, and only with Li Jing could they have such a relationship.

"Where is your Madam?" Lu Zhongming sat down cross-legged and poured wine for the two of them.

Li Jing smiled wryly, "I let her go."

The three people in the prison were silent for a while, and Lu Zhongming knew something about Li Jing's elegant past. When Li Jing visited Yang Su, a power minister in the Sui Dynasty, Yang Su sat on the couch and said to Li Jing, "The prince will become a great weapon in the future." Zhang Chuchen, the maid holding the red brush beside her, fell in love with Li Jing at first sight.

After arriving at Li Jing and returning to the inn, Hong Fu Nu changed into casual clothes and came to look for her overnight, expressing her sincere desire to entrust her life to Li Jing.

However, right now, Li Jing is mixed up like this, from Guanzhong to Bingzhou, and then from Bingzhou to Chang'an to report Li Yuan's rebellion, and was captured by Chai Shao's assassins in Chang'an. It is not easy to be so unlucky in life.

"Where are you going?" Lu Zhongming asked inexplicably, "Yang Xuangan has been punished, so is it possible that she can still go to the house?"

"I don't know." Li Jing shook his head and said, "I left her a letter, thinking I'd forget it, I can't give her anything, I've delayed her all these years, I'm a useless man."

Yuchi Gong said: "Me too."

Lu Zhongming said happily: "You two brothers are quite alike. They both said that. Others have made up their minds to overcome all difficulties and come to follow. If you just say 'forget it', you will leave the responsibility completely behind. As for how the other party will live in the future, it is up to you." None of your business."

Yuchi Gong: "..."

Li Jing: "..."

Lu Zhongming got up, walked a few steps in the cell with his hands behind his back, pondered for a moment, and then said: "What does my father say is a hero? Heroes naturally have to fight repeatedly, and get up wherever they fall. Being misunderstood, he would not let go, Duke Zhou was afraid of rumors, but he did not give up, just walked away."

"I'm leaving first." Lu Zhongming said with a smile: "Li Shimin is arguing with his brother, and they are about to start a fight. You two have a good chat, and I will tell King Tang tonight to send you on the road as soon as possible, so that no one else wants to keep you. Killing you will make brothers discord."

Li Jing: "..."

Lu Zhongming smiled and walked away.

Yu Chigong's face turned blue and white, feeling hot, but Li Jing laughed at himself.

When Lu Zhongming was thinking about how to persuade Li Yuan to save Li Jing, a messenger came from outside the mansion, and Qin Qiong led him all the way into the courtyard.

"It's just in time." Qin Qiong said: "Zhongming, let me introduce you to someone. You two are so close. This is my brother's good brother, Wang Bodang. Bodang, this is Lu Zhongming, Luo Cheng's most beloved younger brother."

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Qin Qiong came over with a man in coarse clothes, he looked like a farmer, his boots were still covered with mud, it was obvious that he came all the way.Qin Qiong didn't blush when she said "I love you the most", and said to Lu Zhongming, "I'm going to find King Tang."

Lu Zhongming nodded, turning countless thoughts in an instant, deducing a bunch of intricate situations.Qin Qiong has no real brothers, the "brother" in his mouth is of course Shan Xiongxin from Wagang Village, and his good brother Wang Bodang is also from Wagang Village.

"Brother Bodang, please." Lu Zhongming said with a smile.

"Hey, isn't this palace well built?" Wang Bodang said with a smile, "Brother Ting Shan often mentions Brother Qin, and today we can finally meet each other, and I also brought along a handsome little brother like you."

Lu Zhongming was a little embarrassed, and wanted to tell him that this is not the palace, but he was afraid that he might be laughing at Wang Bodang, so he laughed a few times and said, "Let's have a cup of tea."

"Are you training soldiers recently?" Wang Bodang followed Lu Zhongming into the second door, and asked again: "Tang Wang has [-] to [-] soldiers."

"Not so much." Lu Zhongming thought to himself, do I still have such stereotypes as a child?He didn't take me seriously, so he said seriously, "It's only seven or eight thousand."

"I can't stop watching." Uncle Wang said casually, looking left and right, and asked, "What are you doing in the mansion? Doing odd jobs?"

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Lu Zhongming originally wanted to be more polite to the Wagang people, but Wang Bodang didn't seem to take him seriously, so he simply started running the train full of words, saying, "I'll try the rice for Tang Wang."

"Oh." Uncle Wang nodded thoughtfully, and Lu Zhongming said as he walked, "Brother, you know that people who are high officials are afraid of being poisoned. Last time I accidentally ate two catties of arsenic... "

Wang Bodang: "..."

Uncle Wang saw that Lu Zhongming was teasing him, so he smiled and asked, "How many meals do you eat a day?"

"Three meals." Lu Zhongming said seriously: "But Tang Wang has been in poor health, and he can't eat much."

"En." Wang Bodang said again: "Hero Chai, what about Luo Shixin and the others? I heard that there is Yuchi Jingde who is very powerful here?"

Lu Zhongming said: "Yuchi Jingde is going through a circle of fire."

Wang Bodang: "?"

As soon as Lu Zhongming sat down, Li Jiancheng came in person, and the two hurriedly got up, and Lu Zhongming hurriedly introduced: "This is the prince." He blinked at Li Jiancheng, and Li Jiancheng took Wang Bodang away.

During this night, Yu Chigong never came back, presumably he was staying with Li Jing in prison.And the next morning just after dawn, Li Shimin sent someone to invite Lu Zhongming to discuss the matter. The matter of Li Jing had not been resolved yet, and another news came from Wagang.

When Li Mi heard about the Taiyuan uprising, he immediately became apprehensive. This man is a smart man, unlike Yang Guang who spends his days in the south of the Yangtze River, so he can't be fooled in the slightest.When Lu Zhongming analyzed the world for Li Yuan for the first time, he talked in detail about how to deal with Li Mi.In the early days of the uprising, Li Mi was the number one enemy.

Sure enough, he sent Uncle Wang as the messenger, with the intention of forming an alliance, and invited Li Yuan to Luokou, where everyone made an alliance with blood, and borrowed [-] soldiers and horses to help him defeat Wang Shichong in Luoyang.

After Lu Zhongming heard this on the way through the main hall, it was consistent with what he had guessed—Li Mi wanted to take Li Yuan as a hostage.Use his two sons for free to help the Wagang Army conquer the world.

"Li Jing..." Li Shimin said again: "Today I'm going to ask him to kill him. I talked to my father all night last night, and he didn't think about it at all..."

"Leave it to me." Lu Zhongming said: "I will handle the matter, don't worry."

Li Shimin frowned, "Can you save him?"

Lu Zhongming hummed, but Li Shimin said: "Hurry up, he will be beheaded soon!"

Lu Zhongming signaled not to be nervous, and stepped into the hall, where discussions about alliances were raging.

"How can we borrow [-] soldiers?" Chai Shao said: "If it's as expected, Li Mi must want us to help him fight forward. These [-] soldiers will only be exhausted if they go."

"Isn't he afraid of being counterattacked by our people?" Li Jiancheng said.

"Counterattack or something is impossible. As soon as King Tang goes, he will be detained immediately." As soon as Lu Zhongming entered the main hall, he bowed to Li Yuan and said in a loud voice: "Li Mi asked King Tang to be here." Being a guest in the mansion, and then commanding King Tang’s army, King Tang will not be able to go home from now on, and King Tang...so weep and bid farewell, cherish all the way!”

Everyone: "..."

The hall was noisy, and Pei Ji was trying to persuade Li Yuan not to fall out with Wagang, and the alliance would be of great benefit to the Tang army. When Lu Zhongming said this, everything fell silent immediately.

Li Shimin had known that Lu Zhongming knew what was on his mind, so he didn't intervene, and whispered a few words to an attendant to get someone to prepare the horse.

Li Yuan has long been accustomed to Lu Zhongming's way of speaking, and he stood up with a smile and said, "I don't know how to make a decision, so please enlighten me, sir."

Lu Zhongming took a look in the hall and knew what Hou Junji and Pei Ji had to say, so he asked, "I want to ask first, what does King Tang think?"

"At present, there are Sui soldiers in front of our army, and Turks in the back." Li Jiancheng said: "It is really inappropriate to fall out with Wagang."

"Lianheng cooperation, long-distance friendship and short-term attack have been the truth since ancient times." Lu Zhongming nodded and said: "Yang Guang is still in Yangzhou, while Dou Jiande is in the east, and Li Mi's army can resist the officers and soldiers for the king of Tang. It’s Li Mi’s turn, let’s capture Chang’an as soon as possible and gain a solid base.”

Hou Junji sneered and said, "Mr. Lu talked about it, but it's what we agreed on."

Lu Zhongming said lightly: "Ten thousand steps back, even if the king of Tang doesn't lend troops to Li Mi, he will definitely not be able to come back when he goes to Wagang Village as a guest. At that time, Li Mi only needs to give orders directly to this side, and he can directly mobilize Tang Jun can fight wherever he wants. Therefore, the king of Tang must not go, but if he does not go and wants to form an alliance, he has to find a way to coax Li Mi. It is okay to lend him a thousand soldiers."

Everyone in the hall was silent, Lu Zhongming said with a smile: "Which lord is willing to share the worries for King Tang?"

No one said anything, going to Wagangzhai, life must be difficult, Li Shimin naturally didn't want to go, and Li Jiancheng couldn't go either. It was just the time for employing people, and Chang'an was about to be attacked. After Chang'an was captured, Li Mi would be vigilant again, maybe Will take the messenger hostage.

Li Yuandao: "What Zhong Ming said is that we must send a lobbyist to stabilize Li Mi. Let me think about it again."

Yu Chigong took a step forward, cupped his fists and said, "I have something to tell you at the end."

Lu Zhongming frowned, but Yu Chigong didn't discuss it, and didn't know what to say, which immediately disrupted his plan. He looked at Yuchi Gong, but Yu Chigong raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Zhongming thought that the young master had been thinking all night, and finally figured out how to help you save Li Jing's life, can you stop making trouble at this time?However, when the two looked at each other, Lu Zhongming instantly felt that Yu Chigong had probably guessed what he was thinking.

Yu Chigong said to the crowd again: "After listening to Lu Canjun's words, the final general has another strategy. Besides, this lobbyist should have another task, to drive a wedge between Cui Rang and Li Mi, and to disintegrate the other party from the inside. Let the generals give birth to a different heart, and recruit capable people and righteous men in Wagang Village for the king of Tang."

This proposal is too arrogant. The reputation of Wagangzhai is at the top of the sky. Li Mi's military strength is several times that of the Tang army. Many people in the world have taken refuge in them. There are many famous generals. It is really impossible to poach all of them with just one mouth. Task.

"Li Mi is not a fool." Even Li Shimin shook his head and said.

Lu Zhongming praised Yu Chigong in his heart, and said: "Yes! After Li Mi arrived in Wagang Village, he launched six major battles in just five years. With his military exploits, he became the second in command of Wagang. Give way to him and retreat behind the scenes. When I came to vote in Jinyang a year ago, I had a relationship with Wei Zheng in Dahai Temple. Wei Zheng's evaluation of him is that Li Mi is very ambitious, and Zhai Rang is unwilling to give up his right."

"Those who are ambitious have weaknesses." Lu Zhongming said again: "Li Mi relies entirely on Zhai Rangrong to make him what he is today. The world is reckless, and he values ​​loyalty very much. There must be someone in Wagang who refuses to accept Li Mi. This is where we can solve the problem. Li Mi's internal affairs Instability, we must form an alliance with the outside world for assistance, we have a lot of bargaining chips... General Yuchi... a good way."

Lu Zhongming looked at Yu Chigong with a smile, but Yu Chigong kept a cold face and didn't respond. Lu Zhongming was upset again, so I praised you, at least give me a reaction.

Someone outside knocked lightly on the door.

"Li Jing is about to beheaded." Duan Zhixuan interrupted their conversation, glanced at everyone in the hall, and asked: "Is there a general to give him a cup of strong wine?"

When they heard this, Lu Zhongming and Yu Chigong didn't care about making any further detours, and said at the same time: "Prince Tang, I have something to report."

When the two of them heard this, they were both surprised and expected, Yu Chigong made a gesture of "please", motioning for Lu Zhongming to speak first.

On the open space in front of Huoyi City, Li Jing was pushed to kneel on the ground with a grass sign inserted, bowing his head.

The blazing sun was in the sky, and the halo flowed.

"As soon as noon comes, the execution will be executed immediately—"

"Wait a minute." Li Yuan pondered, but did not let Lu Zhongming speak.

"Mr. Lu's plan is the best strategy." Li Yuan said: "It's so good, no matter whether it succeeds or not, I ask Mr. Lu to put his own safety first, and a thousand soldiers and horses accompany him, so it is considered as a loan to Li Mi. This king can do without Luoyang. ,but……"

Lu Zhongming's smile faded, and he said seriously: "But if you want to go on an envoy, Zhongming alone can't lead the soldiers, and you have to ask the king of Tang for another general."

"It's noon—" Jian Zhan said: "Execution!"

"Keep people under the knife—!"

Li Shimin rushed to the execution ground at full speed, and finally saved Li Jing's life.

In the official mansion, Li Jiancheng did not kill Li Jing, and his face became very ugly. Lu Zhongming had to pretend not to see, and said: "It has been a long time, if there is any difficulty in attacking Hedong, please ask the king of Tang to dismantle this bag and use it Act according to the plan, so Changan can be obtained."

Speaking of giving Li Yuan a tip, Li Jiancheng said again: "Wait a minute."

"Li Jingqi's heart is not clear." Li Jiancheng said: "Let him accompany you, and bring so many soldiers, what if he rebels again? I'm really worried, let General Yuchi go with Zhongming as well."

Li Shimin said happily: "Let Li Jing be allowed to go on an envoy with the army, serve as the deputy general of Jingde, take the crime and make meritorious service, and deal with it after he returns."

Yuchi Gong happily said: "It's very good."

Lu Zhongming vaguely felt that there seemed to be something wrong, but he didn't react. It seems that Li Jiancheng was really afraid that he would be trapped in the Wagang and would not be able to return. On second thought, Yu Chigong already had soldiers under his command, so he brought a thousand soldiers. People, even if Li Mi asks Yuchi Jingde to fight, he can find a way on his own side, so it's not a big problem.

"Take away General Yuchi and the vanguard." Lu Zhongming asked, "Is it all right, son?"

Li Jiancheng said: "Focus on the overall situation."

At this moment, Lu Zhongming sincerely admired Li Jiancheng, and nodded without saying a word.

"In this case, the king will go back and edit a book and entrust it to Zhongming." Li Yuan said: "I hope you will return smoothly."

Lu Zhongming smiled, but when he saw Yu Chigong, he found the corner of his mouth slightly twitched, and suddenly had a feeling that Yu Chigong had already set a trap, waiting for him to jump into it?

Lu Zhongming suddenly had the feeling of being tricked again. After the discussion was over, he chased Yu Chigong and said angrily: "You have already thought about it, haven't you?"

"You are going on a mission yourself." Yuchi Gong said politely, "What does it matter to me? Either you don't go? Or should I go with Li Jing?"

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Yu Chigong: "I am the coach, you have to listen to me along the way, see you tomorrow."

Lu Zhongming gritted his teeth: "The debt is cheap!"
