Chapter 53: Chapter 52: True Fate

The maple leaves have all fallen, the cold wind is blowing, the sky is dark, and Chang'an has begun to snow.

Yu Chigong set up a ring outside the city. When Lu Zhongming arrived, Yuchi Gong was sweating profusely and shirtless, and asked the candidates to come up one by one.Lu Zhongming was taken aback, unexpectedly, Yu Chigong was going to go off in person to choose soldiers.

Yuchi Gong carried a wooden stick and said, "Next."

There were many people and soldiers standing around, Lu Zhongming poked his head around to see, Yu Chigong knew he had just arrived, smiled at him, and winked his eyes.

A man took off his boots and went to the ring, staring at Yu Chigong, he rushed forward!Yu Chigong didn't move, he hit the man's chest with his stick, the man suddenly rolled on the ground, stretched out his hand, and grabbed Yu Chigong's ankle.However, Yu Chigong straightened the wooden stick, hit his arm with numbness, and cried out in pain.

"Go to the right, next one." Yuchi respectfully said.

Lu Zhongming gradually understood that if he could enter Yu Chigong's long stick defense circle, he was very skilled and could stay.

Yu Chigong's martial arts were so good that Lu Zhongming even suspected that he was under his father's command, not to mention three moves, it would be no problem to perform ten or twenty moves.

Even so, it was very troublesome to choose soldiers in this way, so many people fought him wheel by wheel, and the team lined up outside the city gate, still moving slowly.To pick out [-] people who Yu Chigong thinks are suitable to serve as the personal guards from so many people, the sun must have been very tired when the sun went down.

Lu Zhongming didn't bother him either, and was sitting opposite Yu Chigong with his legs crossed. When he was almost finished picking, Yu Chigong was already panting with his tongue out, and collapsed beside Lu Zhongming.

"It's hard work." Lu Zhongming squeezed his arms and shoulders for him with a smile, and Yuchi stood up with a smile, and said, "It's not hard, let's go and have a drink with your father."

Lu Zhongming was worried, and went with Yu Chigong to buy two altars of good wine, and along the way he told Yu Chigong what to say and what not to say when he saw Lu Bu, and analyzed Lu Bu's character for him.

"As for my father, he has a straight temper. Sometimes you see him not talking, sitting and drinking, with a paralyzed face, but don't feel that he said something wrong..."

While Lu Zhongming was blowing the air to Yu Chigong, Yu Chigong nodded repeatedly.

"In fact, most of the time, his mind is blank. Most people are thinking about things when they are silent. When he is silent, he is not thinking about anything, or he is thinking about some very simple things, such as talking to you. You chatted and suddenly stopped... You thought he was thinking about what you said, worried about saying the wrong thing, but what he was thinking was 'the pattern on this cup is pretty', 'the color of that lamp is good' and so on... "

"Understood!" Yu Chigong grasped the point and said, "Just like you."

"How can I be like this!" Lu Zhongming said furiously.

"No." Yuchi Gong said hastily, "Is there anything he can't mention?"

Lu Zhongming said: "I haven't found it yet, just don't rush to say what he wants to say in advance, he is easy to get angry..."

Yuchi Gong: "..."

Yu Chigong said: "I just said, you miss him very much, you always think about him, I can't compare to him, is this okay?"

Lu Zhongming thought for a while and said, "That's okay, so he's less likely to be jealous of you."

Yu Chigong discussed with Lu Zhongming for a while, and Lu Zhongming took him into the hall and said, "Father! Yu Chigong is here!"

A golden dragon is coiling up in the hall, reaching for the lamp hanging on the beam with its head.

Yuchi Gong: "..."

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Yu Chigong was petrified in an instant, the expression was indescribably wonderful, Jin Long lowered his head and looked at Yu Chigong, his whole body glowed with golden light, and he turned into a human.

Even though Yu Chigong was mentally prepared, he couldn't stand such a shock, his blood pressure was almost soaring, and he passed out on the spot, Lu Zhongming hurriedly shouted: "Hold on!"

The scene was unspeakably embarrassing, Qilin just came back from the hall, and obviously went out to buy something, carrying a food box, and no one in the hall spoke for a while, Lu Zhongming hurriedly moved Yu Chigong with his elbow, Yu Chigong understood , still in shock, hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "My nephew has seen Lu Shibo."

Lu Bu looked Yu Chigong up and down, Lu Zhongming gritted his teeth behind Yu Chigong, and signaled Lu Bu not to say that his face was dark, Lu Bu couldn't say his opening remarks for a while, and looked at Yuchi Gong for a while.

"That's all." Lu Bu finally said, "Sit down."

A family of three and Yu Chigong, whose heart was beating wildly, were seated. Although Yu Chigong had already prepared himself mentally, he was still a little frightened when he watched a dragon turn into a human, and his black face turned pale a lot.

"Father, what are you doing?" Lu Zhongming said helplessly.

"Look at Liang." Lu Bu said indifferently, "Go back and build a house like the one here, why?"

Yuchi Gong felt lingering fear in his heart, he looked up, the beam was too high, it was really not easy for human beings to climb it, guessing that Lu Bu was indeed interested in the Piandian.

"This was built by Emperor Sui." Yu Chigong said: "The folks hired experts to build it. If Shi Bo is interested, I will respect the virtues and look for the blueprints."

"Hmm." Lu Bu nodded, Lu Zhongming poured wine for Qilin, Lu Bu and Yu Chigong, and introduced: "This is my father, Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian. This is my second father, Qilin, and this is Yuchi Gong, you all know each other. "

Yuchi Gong: "........."

Yuchi Gong glanced at Lu Zhongming.

Qilin smiled and said, "It's the Lu Bu who fought against Lu Bu in Sanying."

Lu Bu took a sip of his wine and said, "Have you heard of me?"

"I've heard it!" Yu Chigong reacted, his face was full of shock, he looked at Lu Bu and then at Lu Zhongming, and said, "Zhongming, why didn't you tell me?!"

That reaction didn't seem fake, Lu Bu was also a little surprised, Lu Zhongming remembered that he really didn't seem to have told Yu Chigong about this matter, every time it was my father who called me and said it.

Yuchi Gong got up, raised his robe, knelt towards Lu Bu, and said in a deep voice, "Jingde pays homage to Marquis Wen!"

Lü Bu was surprised, but it was Qilin who came to help him and said, "My nephew, please get up quickly."

Lu Bu said: "Even if you like my son, you don't need to perform this great gift. Get up."

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Qilin: "..."

Yuchi Gongdao: "Yuchi's ancestors were all saved by Marquis Wen. When Marquis Wen went to fight outside the Great Wall to fight against the Xiongnu, the Yuchi family of Xianbei came from a humble background. It was all because of Marquis Wen's mistake that they survived. When Jingde left the clan, the clan elders Still enshrining the tablet of Marquis Wen, unexpectedly Marquis Wen has already cultivated to become an immortal! It is the luck of Jingde's life to see the savior of the clan today!"

Lu Zhongming's jaw dropped immediately, and Lu Bu seemed to be trying to remember, Qilin said: "Jingde, get up and talk."

Lu Bu looked at Yu Chigong, remembered, and said, "Does anyone in your clan live by the Hutuo River?"

"Exactly!" Yuchi said with a smile, "Marquis Wen remembered?"

Qilin asked inexplicably, "Why don't I know?"

"It happened when you went to see breakfast." Lu Bu took a sip of his wine and said, "I remembered, you are a descendant of the Xianbei Yuchi family. Under the protection of the Han army, you escaped from the Huns. , yes or no?"

Yuchi Gong hurriedly nodded and said, "Exactly!"

Lu Bu said, "Your Yuchi family are all black-faced, you finally remembered."

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Yu Chigong smiled embarrassedly, and said: "My ancestor's face is all black, Marquis Wen laughed."

Although Lü Bu later became the regent, all the tribes outside the Great Wall felt grateful for his kindness in expelling the Huns, and still called him "Marquis Wen". When they heard this title, they felt very cordial, so they nodded. In that generation, the face was not dark anymore."

"Inherited from generation to generation." Lu Bu said: "It's understandable, or it's a phenomenon of atavism."

Lu Zhongming was completely in a mess in the wind, with tears streaming down his face, he thought to himself, can you stop entangled in this problem!Seeing that his son's complexion was not quite right, and he was about to turn as dark as Yu Chigong, Lu Bu changed the subject in time, and said, "A man doesn't care about his background or his appearance, not to mention that a good nephew is also a good-looking person, with a dignified appearance, so don't take it to heart."

Yuchi Gong smiled, poured wine for Lu Bu with his own hands, sighed endlessly, and Lu Bu said again: "Seriously, our two ancestors are still related."

Yuchi said respectfully: "Yes, Zhongming also said that Shibo used to live in Bingzhou."

"It doesn't matter if it's close relatives." Lu Zhongming said: "Father, the old master used to give Yuchi a dream and asked him to learn your Qianlong Xiaoye..."

"Oh?" Lu Bu said, "Is there such a thing?"

Yu Chigong said: "When I was young, Jingde often saw Jinao Island in his dreams..."

At this moment, a person came outside, and Qilin raised his head and looked at Lu Zhongming with his eyes.

Lu Zhongming said: "You talk, I'll go out and have a look."

Yu Chigong set out the dishes, nodded, then talked and drank with Lu Bu, Lu Zhongming got up, Qilin said: "I will accompany you."

Qilin put Lu Zhongming on the shoulders, the two went out, saw Li Shimin standing outside the hall, the three met each other, Li Shimin smiled and said: "Zhongming, this is..."

Qilin and Lu Zhongming looked quite similar, one was wearing black clothes and the other was wearing a long robe. Lu Zhongming thought for a while, then turned to look at Qilin, and said it was his father. They were about the same age, so Qilin pinched Lu Zhongming's face and said, "I It's his brother."

Li Shimin smiled and nodded, then glanced inside again, and saw Yu Chigong sitting opposite Lu Bu like a cautious bear. Lu Bu's complacent appearance was printed in the same mold as Lu Zhongming, so he knew Yu Chigong I'm meeting my parents.

"I brought some food, drink some wine and chat?" Li Shimin said: "The moon is just right tonight."

Qilin glanced in and said happily, "Zhongming?"

Lu Zhongming felt that he would be struck by lightning when he went back. Anyway, Yu Chigong knew how to speak, so he sat down with Li Shimin and Qilin in the garden. Qilin seemed to be very interested in Li Shimin, so Lu Zhongming asked, "How are you doing recently?"

Li Shimin was a little surprised, and said: "It's good, Xuanling told me, this...Brother Lu, I'm ashamed to say it."

"You can do whatever you want." Qilin opened the food box and said with a smile, "Hey, there is also celery! I like this."

Qilin took the chopsticks and divided the dishes between the two. Lu Zhongming said, "My brother is much smarter than me. If you have any difficulties, you can ask him."

Li Shimin nodded, sighed, and said, "Father asked me to ask about tomorrow's sky..."

Lu Zhongming said: "Just wait outside Suzaku's gate on time at noon, and wrap me up."

Li Shimin said: "That's good."

Qilin asked Li Shimin, "How do your father and brother treat you?"

When Qilin asked this question out of the blue, Li Shimin fell silent, took a look at Lu Zhongming, and thought that since he was Lu Zhongming's elder brother, he couldn't hide his family affairs from him, so he said, "Everything is fine, I think, after my father ascends the throne , then took the army and went out to fight.”

"What about returning from the battle?" Qilin asked with a smile.

Li Shimin said: "If possible, make an appointment with three or five friends, roam the famous rivers and mountains, bring your wife, visit Taoism and ask immortals, or go for a walk in the Western Regions. To be honest, when I was young, I always thought of the Silk Road. Going to the end, I heard that there are many strange people and skills in the Dashi Kingdom, and if you are alive, if you can travel around the world with a sword, it will be a joy."

Lu Zhongming warmed up and said, "The ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny..."

But Qilin said: "Since that's the case, I wish the son his wish come true."

Lu Zhongming was stunned suddenly, the corner of his mouth twitched, he glanced at Qilin, whose eyes were like shining morning stars, and said with a smile: "Toast to you."

Li Shimin clinked glasses with Qilin, smiled and said, "Brother will be a good emperor."

"Hello." Lu Zhongming said, "Brother Zhong... this is a bit wrong!"

Qilin said indifferently: "As long as the people of the world know what they are doing?"

"Yes." Li Shimin said with a smile: "Let nature take its course, do your best, and obey the destiny."

Qilin drank the glass of wine and said again: "But doing things according to the sky doesn't mean you just want to kill yourself. What you should fight for, you still have to fight for."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "That's natural."

Qilin smiled at Lu Zhongming again: "Zhongming, how many friends you have in the future, you can't let go of them. If everyone wants to, you can come to Jinao Island as a guest. Your father just said today that if you want to build a bigger house, you can do it. In Houshan, often let your brothers come to play at home, so as not to break up the banquet and cause sadness."

Lu Zhongming burst into tears, and while wiping his tears with his sleeves, he said, "Thank you, thank you... hiccup."

Qilin: "..."

Li Shimin thought it was funny, and said: "If there is a chance, I must come to visit."

Qilin rolled up his sleeves, and said with great sympathy: "It's hard work for you to take care of this little idiot." Then he went to help Lu Zhongming press his stomach, Lu Zhongming struggled and cried: "I'm not a little idiot!"

Having said that, Lu Zhongming knew that Qilin and Lu Bu really loved him, and were even willing to accept his friends.Lu Zhongming was rubbed by Qilin on his stomach, hiccup stopped again, and said to Li Shimin, "Call Brother Luo, Brother Qin, Daxia Chai, Li Jing, Yuchi, and you..."

"Is it for me?" Li Jiancheng's voice sounded, and Li Shimin hurriedly got up and said, "Brother!"

Li Jiancheng came over and sat down with a smile, and said, "I'm offended by coming here uninvited."

"Sit down, please." Qilin said politely.

Li Jiancheng was a little surprised, looked at Qilin, and bowed his hands as a gift. Li Shimin introduced, "This is Zhongming's brother."

Li Jiancheng was nothing more than to confirm tomorrow's affairs, saying: "Father's three concessions have been completed, today the king of the Shang Dynasty is in front of you, preparing for tomorrow's three meditations, right in front of Suzaku's gate."

Qilin and Lu Zhongming looked at each other, Qilin was a little surprised, and said, "Is there still such a rule?"

Lu Zhongming said: "Oh, you don't know, it's all like this now, you have to go through the formal process..."

Qilin laughed and said, "When Cao Cao offered the emperor Zen, he was not so firm."

Lu Zhongming said: "So Cao Cao refused to accept it. Don't you think it didn't work out in the end?"

The two fathers and sons said one sentence to another, but Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng's faces turned green and pale. Li Jiancheng said awkwardly: "You two are joking."

Qilin said seriously: "You two sons, I don't know if God has the virtue of being good at life, but I don't like to see unnecessary bloodshed and killing."

Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng are both on the same level, but Lu Zhongming thought that Jiang was still old and hot. Sure enough, the next sentence of Qilin was: "I have no objection to helping the king of Tang, but since the king of Tang obeyed the destiny and ascended the throne as emperor, please obey the destiny. To benefit the world and treat people well is the same for the two of you."

As soon as these words came out, the two brothers of the Li family were respectful at the same time. Li Jiancheng stood up and bowed to the ground, saying: "The younger generation will definitely tell my father and remember the teachings of the seniors."

Li Shimin also said respectfully: "Definitely."

Qilin smiled and made a gesture of invitation. The two brothers of the Li family knew that he and Lu Zhongming had something to say, so they didn't stay any longer and left.

Qilin and Lu Zhongming had dinner and walked through the garden. Lu Zhongming hadn't had enough and was going back to have another meal.

"What do you think of those two brothers?" Lu Zhongming asked.

Qilin stopped, put one hand on Lu Zhongming's shoulder, and leaned into his ear.

Lu Zhongming: "???"

Qilin said in a low voice: "Actually, I think Li Shimin is cuter than Yuchi Gong."

"Everyone has a daughter-in-law!" Lu Zhongming said.

Qilin smiled and said, "What if there is no daughter-in-law, baby?"

Lu Zhongming said: "I can't do without it, and I don't like him."

"I thought you would be an emperor or something." Qilin laughed again.

Lu Zhongming said: "I don't think so. He doesn't have a good relationship with his brother. I just treat him as a friend and want to help him."

"His brother isn't really wrong." Qilin said, "I'll give you another brother, what are you doing?"

"Of course not." Lu Zhongming said: "Brother is about the same... I don't hate Li Jiancheng too much, but... what the grandfather said is just to show me how to do it... If we give Jiancheng Tied, the Buddhists want to..."

Qilin changed his mind and stopped talking.

Lu Zhongming said: "Right, or else I have to ask the patriarch?"

Qilin said: "Well, let's find a time to accompany you to the door and meet the Buddhists. Manjusri and Puxian have probably escaped now, and there should be some people left behind in Da Ci'en Temple."

Lu Zhongming nodded, stepped forward and took Qilin's hand, and went back to the hall.

The laughter of Lu Bu and Yu Chigong came from the hall, obviously there was no problem, Yuchi Gong laughed out of breath, and then said: "When we meet him again later, he hiccups all night..."

Lu Bu blushed from drinking, laughed loudly, poured out a glass of wine, placed it in front of Yu Chigong, and said, "Drink, drink."

When Lu Zhongming saw that his father had finally accepted Yu Chigong for the time being, he felt relieved, but he knew that with Lu Bu's temper, he would definitely renege on his debt when he woke up tomorrow, saying that he had forgotten everything he said last night.

But at least it was a good thing that they got to know each other. That night, Lu Bu and Yu Chigong drank until late at night, but Lu Zhongming didn't go back, so he went to the side with Qilin and fell asleep on the same bed.

That day Lu Bu was drunk and lying in the living room, Yu Chigong was also drunk and snored until noon.

"Son!" Qilin shook Lu Zhongming awake and said, "Aren't you going to give the jade seal today?"

As soon as Lu Zhongming opened his eyes, he was startled and said, "What time is it! Oops!"

It was three poles in the sun, Lu Zhongming staggered out, looked at the time, it was not yet noon, it was okay... Lu Bu put his foot on Yu Chigong's stomach, snoring while lying down.

"Father!" Lu Zhongming went to shake him.

Lu Bu was still hungover, closed his eyes and raised his hand, pointed at Lu Zhongming, and said domineeringly: "I, Lu Fengxian—"

Lu Zhongming: "..."

Three seconds later, Lu Bu dropped his hand and continued to snore.

Lu Zhongming went crazy and shouted: "I'm going to get the jade seal! Yuchi Gong! Get up soon!"

Yuchi Gong jumped up and asked, "What's the matter? Have you gone to watch breakfast?!"

Lu Zhongming said: "I'll get the jade seal! You are responsible for shaking my father awake!"

Speaking of which, Lu Zhongming rushed out of the palace and ran home. There was chaos outside, and the people rushed towards the Suzaku Gate. The bell was ringing in the distance, and it was almost noon. The Chuanguo Yuxi, which was caught under the arm, came out and got on the horse.

Qin Qiong arrived on horseback.Yaoyao shouted: "What are you doing! Are you ready?!"

Seeing five or six generals surrounded the door, Lu Zhongming hurriedly shouted: "Go and tell Li Yuan! My father is still asleep! Let him wait a little longer!"

As he said that, Lu Zhongming patted his horse and ran away, throwing Qin Qiong a back.

At noon, outside Suzaku's gate, Yang You stepped onto the stage, Li Yuan burned incense, and stood with his hands down. It was a cloudy day, and the sky was full of light snow, and it was gloomy and gloomy.

When the cold wind blew, Yang You's face was pale, he stood silently, the eunuch said for him: "Benevolence is auspicious to the heavens, the earth of great virtue..."

The people talked a lot, some people started cheering, the people in Quanchang'an were crowded, and the alleys were empty, more and more people flocked to the Suzaku gate.

Li Jiancheng looked hesitant, and whispered to Li Shimin: "Lv Zhongming hasn't come yet."

Li Yuan held his hands, but refused to accept Yang You's edict, and said loudly: "Li Yuan has no virtue or ability, he didn't dare—"

Luo Shixin rode forward, Li Shimin immediately said: "Shixin!"

"He said his father hasn't woken up yet!" Luo Shi said, "Let's wait here!"

Everyone: "..."

However, the next moment, a dragon chant sounded in the distance, and the sound of the dragon chant shook the sky, and the dark clouds in the sky were swept away in an instant!The sun shines all over, and the golden dragon shines on the earth.

Hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an were frightened, and someone shouted loudly: "The real dragon! This is the real dragon!"

All of a sudden, from the high platform to outside the Suzaku Gate, the inner and outer city gates knelt down one after another. The astonishment spread from one to another, and the crowd knelt down one after another. Everyone looked up to the sky. Ring!

Even Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, as well as all civil servants and military generals, all changed their expressions and knelt down one after another. Yang You turned his head in fear, his knees softened, and knelt down.

Li Yuan couldn't help trembling, his beard trembled, and he barely insisted on standing on the stage.

"The emperor on earth..." Lu Zhongming's voice came from the clouds, and the voice stopped abruptly.

The golden dragon circled and landed towards Suzaku Gate, but as if drunk, it veered a little to the west, and with a loud bang, in the midst of everyone's attention, it hit the archway outside Suzaku Gate, knocking a piece of the archway away.

Everyone: "..."

"Over there! Wrong!" Lu Zhongming's voice came down.

Li Yuan: "..."

The five-clawed golden dragon was dizzy, circled again, finally underestimated the soles of its feet, and landed slowly.

"God has a destiny." Lu Zhongming stepped on the golden dragon's head, approached the high platform, smiled and said: "Let me come to assist the emperor on earth. From then on, I will live in my life, ninety-five years will be respected, the world will return to my heart, and all people will respect me."

Li Yuan straightened his royal robes, stepped forward and said, "I would like to follow the orders of the Immortal Elder!"

Lu Zhongming's body was surrounded by a golden light, like a scorching sun, which blinded everyone's eyes. In an instant, the light was absorbed and turned into a luminous Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, which flew towards Li Yuan.

Li Yuan took it with both hands, and Lu Zhongming said loudly: "The Sui family's power is gone, and the world has returned to the Tang Dynasty from now on. Now I will give you the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, Ziweixing, I wish you forever, and rule the world..."

With a long roar, the golden dragon carried Lu Zhongming hovering in the air, flitting past hundreds of thousands of people as if playing handsome, and disappeared into the distance above the soldiers' heads.
