As Wu Ming expected, after Li Shimin left, he went to Li Yuan and scolded Wu Ming, and then carried Li Yuanba in his arms, showing a strong fighting spirit together, which not only made Li Yuan believe that there was no Li Shimin dedicated to the Li family, but also brought Li Yuan huge pressure.

The next day Li Yuan held a clan meeting, those clan relatives are mostly mixed and waiting for death, after the siege of Taiyuan, they have no desire to continue to fight in their hearts, for Li Yuan decided to accept Zhang Xutuo's proposal, they naturally did not have much backlash, this kind of thing that they have their own benefits to occupy, and the black pot is carried by someone, as long as they are not fools, they generally will not do it.

The proposal turned into a resolution very smoothly, and Li Shimin told Wu Ming the resolution and presented Li Yuan's handwritten letter.

Under Wu Ming's threading of the needle, two days later, Zhang Xutuo, Pei Ju and Li Yuan met at the renovated Li family's camp outside the city, and Yang Lin and Li Jiancheng were handed over to Zhang Xutuo at the same time.

Zhang Xutuo immediately continued to appoint Li Yuan as the Taiyuan Assassin in the name of the auxiliary minister, and led the military and political affairs in the Taiyuan area, while Li Yuan swore to continue to be loyal to the new monarch Yang Zhao, and the Taiyuan Battle finally ended in such a more decent way for both sides.

Zhang Xutuo achieved a nominal victory, carrying the power of turning the tide, holding the so-called will of assisting the new monarch, escorting Yang Guang's body back to Luoyang.

According to Yang Xiao's layout, Chen Ai was left in the sect hall of the Yin Kui Sword Sect, responsible for the docking of the Sword Sect with the Tang Sect, and began to infiltrate Taiyuan City, while Wu Ming, Elder Tang, Xiao Yong and others were preparing to set off to return to Jiangnan.

As for the Phoenix Spirit Beast Knights, they were reassigned back to the Tianji Plateau, and in the hearts of everyone in the Tang Sect, the most important duty of the Tang Sect was always the protection of the alien beasts and the world.

Li Shimin walked on the street of Dongcheng, the original prosperous street, at this time there was no shouting of merchants, only the sergeants and people who were busy repairing the houses, watching them sweat in the sun, Li Shimin felt something, his steps were very slow, walking and walking, he showed a long-lost smile on his face, that smile flashed with long-lost self-confidence, Wu Ming has left Taiyuan, he believes that given him ten years, he will be able to take the Li family to create a higher glory.

。。。。。。。。

。。。。。。。。。

Five days later, outside the city of Hangzhou, inside the mountain city of the Song family, the people at the helm of the better forces of the Song family gathered, and Song Que took all the elders, looking like they were waiting for the battle, standing at the gate of the mountain city together, looking forward to it.

About a quarter of an hour later, the huge body of the Ice Flame White Tiger appeared in everyone's sight, Wu Ming was dressed in plain clothes, like an elegant Confucian student, Yang Xiao sat in front of Wu Ming, riding on the back of the White Tiger with him, there was a faint smile in his eyes, and there was a sense of nobility between the smiles, and the two of them were like fairy couples.

Song Que stepped forward quickly, and the rest of the people followed, bowing to Wu Ming at the same time, welcoming Wu Ming in unison.

Wu Ming smiled slightly, bowed his hand in return, and everyone followed on both sides of the Ice Flame White Tiger, until the gate of the mountain city, the White Tiger leaned over, Wu Ming jumped down, raised his arm, and said softly to Yang Xiao: "I'll help you, be careful." ”

Yang Xiao gave Wu Ming a farewell look, rarely showed the appearance of a daughter, and said, "I'm not so expensive. ”

Wu Ming smiled gently and said, "You will always be precious to me!"

Yang Xiao glanced at Wu Ming, held Wu Ming's hand, and jumped off the back of the white tiger with his support.

At this time, Song Que walked up to Wu Ming and said respectfully: "Son of God, the banquet in the city has been prepared. ”

Wu Ming said: "Uncle Song is polite, I only arrived yesterday, you prepared this banquet for me today, I am really a little flattered!"

Song Que flattered and said: "I know that the Son of God has worked hard and made great achievements this time! I can let Yang Guang's faint monarch get the retribution he deserves, but the Son of God has done a great thing for the common people in the world!"

Yang Guang's matter Zhang Xutuo's announcement to the world, has clearly stated that he died at the hands of Zhao Gui and Wei Wentong, and now Song Que is at the helm of the major forces, with a flattering attitude, Yang Guang's death is related to Wu Ming, such an approach will not contain any good intentions in Wu Ming's opinion.

Wu Ming's eyes became sharp, he looked at Song Que with a smile, and said: "Uncle Song is really confused, I didn't do anything decent when I went to Taiyuan this time, Yang Guang's death has little to do with me, and the Li family is also defeated, if Uncle Song comes to set up a banquet for such a reason, then everyone can disperse." ”

Song Que still looked kind and smiling, and said: "The Son of God is really too humble, everyone knows the meaning of going through the Taiyuan War. ”

Wu Ming's tone was cold, and he said: "Since you know the meaning, then Uncle Song, what is the meaning of you still saying these meaningless words? You can only see the appearance of many things, and when you can't know their connotations, it's better not to comment more." ”

Song Que was stunned for a moment, remembering that the propaganda of the disciples of the Tang Sect these days was all spread through the Black Tiger Gang, which was actually a kind of gossip on the streets, but the Tang Sect himself had never admitted that Yang Guang's death was Wu Ming's merit.

This approach can not only enhance Wu Ming's prestige among ordinary people, but also avoid the minefield of blood feud with the Yang family. At the same time, Song Que suddenly found that his horse's fart was slapped on the horse's hooves, and his face became very unnatural.

Yang Xiao glanced at Song Que with a wicked smile and said: "The head of the Song family has been busy these days, it is inevitable that he is a little incomplete, and he blames me for being busy with Taiyuan affairs these days, and I have not been able to help the Song family share their worries, now that the son of God is back, I will definitely work hard to make up for the things that I have not done well in the past few days." ”

Song Que couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and his face was almost broken by worry, but fortunately, the city was deep enough to hold it.

Song Que said: "The Divine Son misunderstood, we are here to catch the wind for the Divine Son, not to celebrate the killing of Yang Guang." ”

Wu Ming laughed and said: "Don't worry, Uncle Song, I know that we have a lot of life these days, and we have to be close and close when we look back." ”

Song Que was a little embarrassed, he knew that he had no energy to pay attention to the Song family recently because of the Tang Sect, but he was a little flustered, so he did something inappropriate just now, and he could only nod his head again and again because of what Wu Ming had just said, and he didn't dare to say more.

At the beginning of the banquet, everyone was worried and relaxed, and the delicacies during the banquet were not attracted to the people who participated in the banquet, they all hoped to make a relationship with Wu Ming through Song Que.

Song Que understood the general trend, so he did a favor, and recommended those who needed it, and for a while, Wu Ming's place became a sightseeing attraction, and the team was the elder.

Wu Ming showed an approachable side, it can be said that he did not refuse to come, and a banquet could be regarded as a pleasure for the guests and hosts.

At the end of the banquet, the guests dispersed, and Song Que welcomed Wu Ming and Yang Xiao to the meeting hall, where the four elders of the Song family were already waiting.

Everyone sat down, and Yang Xiao took the lead in speaking: "Master Song, if you let me move here to talk about Yangzhou, then I persuade you not to bother." ”

Song Que said: "Miss Yang, you misunderstood, the Song family is also dedicated to the affairs of Yangzhou, I just hope that after taking Yangzhou, we naturally dare not expect the position of this assassin history, that is, I hope that the position of the captain of this city defense battalion, I hope that the Tang Sect can consider the children of the Song family." ”

Wu Ming glanced at Yang Xiao, Yang Xiao understood, and stopped the words that had just come to his mouth.

Wu Ming smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, Uncle Song, I have already chosen the position you mentioned, there is fine wine in Yangzhou, I think the fifth child will like it very much, the fifth brother, are you right?"

The Fifth Elder stood up a little stunned and said, "Me? Xiao Ming, oh no, Divine Son"

"It's okay, you can still call me Xiaoming. ”

The fifth elder clasped his fists and said: "Divine son, I understand your kindness, after that injury, my strength has been greatly reduced, let me go to the city defense camp in Yangzhou, I am afraid that I will not be able to do this kind of work." ”

"Old Five, don't worry, you can just drink wherever you go, as for someone finding fault, I and Uncle Song will deal with it, Uncle Song, are you right?"

Seeing the steps handed out by Wu Ming, of course Song Que would follow the steps, and he immediately said: "Fifth brother, don't worry, we still have so many old brothers here, what is there to discuss, take care of it together, it's okay." ”

The fifth elder is not a stupid person, he naturally knows why Wu Ming wants him to take over this position, it seems that he is the only one in the Song family who is suitable, he can not only hide the interests of the Song family, but also will not damage the income of the Tang family, but such a position to balance the interests of both sides is really not easy to do!

Seeing the earnest demeanor of everyone in the Song family, the five elders finally chose to reluctantly embarrass them, seeing that the five elders accepted, Song Que's face was full of joy, and he first patted Wu Ming's beard, and then thanked the five elders.

The Song family is naturally full of joy when they get the benefits they need, the so-called relationship is born from the heart, which is roughly what Song Que looks like at this time, Wu Ming and Yang Xiao left the mountain city under the farewell of the Song family, but Yang Xiao's eyes obviously revealed displeasure.

Wu Ming led Yang Xiao to step onto the white tiger, the white tiger understood human nature, it felt that Yang Xiao was unwilling to stay longer, the span between the steps was obviously much larger, and the frequency of the steps was also anxious.

Soon, the outline of the Song family's mountain city disappeared behind him, and Wu Ming broke the silence and said, "What's wrong?

Yang Xiao did not hide her dissatisfaction, and said: "Yangzhou's interests do not need to be ceded in the first place, although such a promise will allow the Song family to exert force in the next battle in Yangzhou, but I still don't think it's worth it!"

Wu Ming hugged Yang Xiao into his arms and said softly: "We are pressing the Song family too hard in Hangzhou, and my father-in-law is not fuel-efficient, etc., I believe that it will not be long before the power of the Song family here in Hangzhou will be greatly reduced, if you don't give them some sweetness, maybe you will really force him to be anxious." ”

Yang Xiao opened Wu Ming's embrace and said: "Even if he Song Que is angry, but what can he do with the current situation? Yangzhou Wang Shichong is only at the end of the strong crossbow, and we will put Zhang Xutuo and Pei Ju back in the north, and under the internal struggle between them and the Dugu family, it will inevitably be a big loss of strength! No matter who wins in the end, when the time comes, when we wave our troops north, they will only bow down and be subordinate."

As for Du Fuwei's bandits, they have been crippled by Wei Wentong, as long as they don't give them assistance, they can only wait to be recruited, I really can't think of anything else for Song Que to rely on, so what if Yangzhou's interests are not given to him!"

"Yang Xiao, I know you must be angry with Song Que for the inappropriate words just now, but from the performance during the banquet that followed, he should have made an unintentional mistake, and this invisible mistake also shows a problem, that is, the strength of the Song family has been greatly discounted, otherwise it is impossible for Song Que not to know such important information.

If you want long-term peace and stability, it is not a blind pressure, I think it should be a combination of grace and power, so as to regain the hearts of the people, only when the people's hearts are stable, the world can be stable, what we have to do next is to make the dishonest people feel pain, let those honest people taste the sweetness, do you think I am right?"

Yang Xiao understood the meaning of Wu Ming's words, the reason why Yang Xiao was dissatisfied was because her focus was on fighting for hegemony, and Wu Ming's focus now was on the word governance.

Wu Ming smiled and said, "Sister Yang Xiao, can I understand that you have such a look of worship?"

Yang Xiao glanced at Wu Ming and said, "Yes, how can you be so shameless when you worship you!"

"How can I be ashamed?"

Yang Xiao's anger turned into a smile and said, "You're not shameless, you really don't know what shamelessness is!"

Caught off guard, Wu Ming let his lips hug Yang Xiao's ears like a dragonfly falling rain and lotus leaves.

Yang Xiao twisted her body and said with a smile: "Don't, it's itchy!"

Wu Ming held Yang Xiao's waist with both hands and said, "There are even more shameless ones, do you want to try it?"

Between laughter and laughter, Yang Xiao showed the posture that a girl should have, and the appearance that a young lover should have.

The sunset is like a veil, the grass is like fire, and the two playful figures on the ice flame white tiger slowly fade in the direction of Hangzhou City with the slow pace of the white tiger.
