The content of the holy decree is roughly about the appointment of Lu Bing by the imperial court, and Lu Bing has become the so-called Dragon Shadow General, and the Dragon Shadow General is the emperor's stand-in. What does this mean Zhang Qingze understands very well, not to mention that he is just a master, no matter how much Wudang is valued by the imperial court and has an inseparable relationship, it is not worthy of Lu Bing's identity.

Zhang Qingze left Lu Bing outside to dry for half an hour, this matter is big and small, but it is not good to be wrong, but it is a sin to cut off the head if you do not obey the holy sludge court, and the monks escape into the empty door outside the six paths, generally as a fault before becoming a monk, in addition to treason and rebellion, it can basically be forgiven.

But now he is a Taoist priest himself, and in the face of such a big Lu Bing, the identity of a monk is completely difficult to use. Zhang Qingze's body is already relatively fat, although he is in good health after practicing martial arts, he still loves to sweat, not because of his physique, for example, at this time, Zhang Qingze's heart and back of his robe are all wet.

Zhang Qingze himself didn't know how he came to Lu Bing, in short, he was stumbling and embarrassed, when he saw Lu Bing, the whole chrysanthemum face was about to laugh, and he said with a servile look: "Poor Dao meets General Longying, just now Poor Dao participated in the magic machine, and he neglected the general for a while, please forgive the general." ”

"Senior brother, where are you talking about, why are you still called a general? Although I am now the general of the Dragon Shadow, my official position is still the deputy Qianhu, haha, this is very similar to the feeling of the imperial history, even the emperor can participate in the official position is not high. Back then, when I was a servant, you didn't call me Lord Lu, senior brother, but now you call me a general, why do I feel uncomfortable listening to it. Lu Bing saw Zhang Qingze coming in, stood up and hugged his fists,

Zhang Qingze secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, with a stiff smile on his face, but he was about to cry secretly, and he couldn't tell whether Lu Bing was deliberately sarcastic or sincere. However, there is one thing that Zhang Qingze understands, this deputy thousand households is not a deputy thousand households, let alone a trivial matter, even the first assistant of the cabinet is not as good as Lu Bing's current status.

However, there is one thing that Zhang Qingze is more puzzled about. That's what Lu Bing's mouth called him, isn't it calling himself? So Zhang Qingze asked tremblingly: "General, this senior brother"

"Tsk, look, I just said that I won't let you call the general, why do you still call it, senior brother. Well, it's good if you don't call it. Seeing Zhang Qingze, Lu Bing hurriedly waved his hand and continued to smile and said: "Isn't it right to call Senior Brother, Qingfeng and I are brothers, and you are older than me, aren't you his senior brother becoming my senior brother?" Could it be that you want me to call you Zhang Zhenren, Zhang Zhang, Zhang Guanzhu, Zhang Zhenren, Zhang Guanzhu? That's not a distancing relationship. Rusty, you say? ”

Zhang Qingze was stunned for a long time and reacted, his vanity was greatly satisfied, and he nodded and said, "Exactly, Brother Lu Lu." Please take a seat. Come on, look at the tea. ”

The two sat separately, when the fragrant tea bloomed in the cup, a unique tea fragrance spread throughout the room, Lu Bing looked at it, and the tea nodded and said, "This is Biluochun, right?" ”

"Brother Lu is very knowledgeable, it is Biluochun. It's just that few people know the name of this Biluochun, and most people call Biluochun Dongting tea, and there is another name called Scaring Fragrance. Zhang Qingze said.

Lu Bing continued: "Exactly, in the Zhengde period, when the emperor was in power, there was a cabinet chief assistant Wang Ao who named Biluo tea. Just because the tea spiral is like a small blue snail, and the white float is more vibrant, it is better to add a spring word. This is the wonderful tea name of Biluochun, and a good tea with a good name can deserve its taste. Speaking of Wang Ao, I can't help but think of a person, Tang Yin and Tang Bohu. This person is a talented person, but Wang Ao's disciple, but not long after the apprenticeship, there was a thing like a test case in the imperial examination, hey, it was wronged such a talent, and his untimely death no longer left a masterpiece in the world, I think a few years later, this person will be able to become famous in history and be fabricated, and become a canon of talented and beautiful women. Speaking of this, Lu Bing suddenly thought of Xing Ye, and couldn't help but let out a few of Xing Ye's signature laughs.

Zhang Qingze nodded as if he didn't understand: "I have heard of this person a little, but he has been very depressed in his life, first he was implicated in the leak case, and then he was depressed in life, his wife is not healthy, and he only has one daughter." Later, it was involved in the rebellion of King Ning, which is really sad. Speaking of Tang Yin's tragic deeds, he couldn't help but be associated with himself, how could he not be born at the wrong time, he was born at the wrong time, he was born bright, his luck was not good, and his fate was ill-fated, and he suddenly felt pity for himself.

Lu Bing coughed lightly twice and said, "Don't talk about the state affairs of the previous dynasty." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, although this tea is not a good tea, it is also this year's new tea before the Ming Dynasty, let Daotong wrap it for Brother Lu for a while, take it back and drink it, it's not a valuable thing. But for people like you who understand tea and love tea, I can't think of a more suitable gift than this. Zhang Qingze flattered.

Lu Bing said with a smile: "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, then thank you below." ”

After Lu Bing finished speaking, he began to talk to Zhang Qingze about business: "Senior brother, brother, I have something to ask for. ”

"Please." Zhang Qingze was even more relieved, and there was really something. If Lu Bing came out so politely when he had nothing to do, and he showed such a pass, then it would make Zhang Qingze panic, and asking for something to show his purpose, this side made Zhang Qingze a lot more down-to-earth, it seems that this time he is not following the identity of the Dragon Shadow General to rectify himself.

Lu Bing said: "Recently, shaman ghosts and witches have infiltrated the Central Plains again, and there are signs of resurgence, Chang Luqi Chang Ye and others have led the Shaanxi gang and the Northwest Horse Gang to encircle and intercept them, but several major martial arts families are not willing to be led, but they themselves are not capable of leading others and lack prestige, so they form alliances with each other and participate in the war against shamans and ghosts. As a result, several forces have been formed, which say that they are not big or small, and they have had some effect on the cults, but their effects are not so significant. Previously, Master Wusu of Shaolin Temple led everyone to fight with shaman ghosts and witches, and the shaman ghosts and witches have been dispersed, and their strength is not as good as before, and now there is only a small force left, and the blow of Chang Ye and others to shamans and ghosts is to strangle the threat of the cult in the cradle. Recently, the coastal frontier is rampant, hurting my people and insulting our country's prestige, Shaolin Temple has sent warrior monks to help, I don't know if the senior brother can hear about this? ”

"I've heard about it, and I also have the heart to serve the court, but I don't know where to start." Zhang Qingze said, full of ghosts, he beat a side drum in his heart, and he didn't know if Lu Bing came so politely this time to use him as a gunman.

Lu Bing pondered for a moment and said, "The main thing is this. Recently, I want to let the leader of the martial arts alliance, Master Wusu, gather the world's heroes to help the border soldiers fight Ordos, but Master Wusu wants to lead the Shaolin warrior monks to fight against the enemy. And I also have official business, not to mention that my prestige is not good, I am now worried and I don't know who to choose, this person should be good at martial arts, and his status is even higher, and he can command the world's heroes, such a person is difficult to choose. ”

Zhang Qingze's eyes lit up, he swallowed his saliva and pretended to be calm: "Fighting a war is a matter for the imperial court, and I wait for people in the martial arts to interfere at will, I'm afraid it's thankless." ”

"No, no, no. First of all, at a time when the country is in danger, we should be commended for being so loyal to the country. In addition, most of our martial arts people can fight three with one, and the master can even fight with one against ten. A grandmaster-level figure like Senior Brother should be able to fight one against one hundred. People in the martial arts have a strong temperament, and most of them are difficult to manage, but their combat effectiveness is enough to make up for the lack of organization and lack of discipline. Lu Bing said.

Lu Bing's voice sank, and he continued in a low voice: "As the head of all military operations in the country as the Dragon Shadow, I am absolutely in charge of this matter. So there's no such thing as a thankless effort. In addition, the addition of martial arts people can also relieve some of the military pressure, allowing me to control other hostile forces more freely. At the same time, the saint also knows that I am a martial arts person, and this time the martial arts heroes came out to help, not only so that the saint will have a good impression of the martial arts. I no longer hold on to the pigtails that are forbidden by force, and I will feel that I have a lot of brains and face, which is a great thing for me. Even after the war, I would be highly rewarded, and martial arts became a bargaining chip in my hands. In the political arena, it is as important as an invisible military power. ”

When Lu Bing said this, he laughed, laughing because the wolf's ambition was particularly shameless, which made Zhang Qingze believe Lu Bing's words even more, in his opinion, only profitable things will be done. As soon as Lu Bing said this, Zhang Qingze understood that people die for money, birds die for food, and Lu Bing can't make wedding dresses for others in vain. Of course, the reason why Lu Bing said this was also to take into account Zhang Qingze's character.

Lu Bing continued: "This matter is confidential, you must choose a person with strong martial arts to be the leader of this operation, Qingfeng is qualified, but the qualifications are too shallow, and everything has to rely on the prestige of Danyangzi's predecessors, hey, that's why I am worried." I am representing the imperial court, and this expedition is also a battle for the imperial court, which is related to the face and prestige of the imperial court. At the same time, this leader also represents the imperial court, the position cannot be too low, and the martial arts cannot be bad, otherwise the martial arts people will definitely think that this is the imperial court oppressing them, not to convince people with virtue, if it is a person of high morality, I can directly appoint it, and it will save a lot of opinions at that time, not to mention the noisy martial arts conference for this. ”

"Exactly, exactly, the martial arts conference is really boring, the people in the rivers and lakes are constantly strife, it is difficult to unify, the dispute between the north and the south of the portal is deep-rooted, and the martial arts conference can't discuss any countermeasures at all. It is better to be appointed by the imperial court in this similar way of delegation, as long as the person's status is high enough, what kind of head of a famous faction or something, people in the rivers and lakes should not gossip. Zhang Qingze tried his best to lead the conversation to himself.

Lu Bing pretended not to see it, and nodded: "That's the case, direct appointment saves a lot of things, by the way, senior brother, you have the right people to recommend, or some people can be cultivated, after this war, the leader will become a person in my brother's camp, and I will rely on each other in the future." What's more, if you can win this time, the imperial court will naturally reward you lavishly, and if you don't want to add officials to the leader, there is no need to cheapen outsiders for such a good thing, as the so-called fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, so I also asked my senior brother to recommend one person for me, and I am also here for this matter. ”

Zhang Qingze frowned slightly, and after a long time, he seemed embarrassed and said: "Since ancient times, the virtuous have not avoided relatives, and there are even better stories of self-recommendation. I mean, Brother Lu, you see if the poor Dao is qualified. ”

Lu Bing opened his mouth and was stunned, Zhang Qingze smiled awkwardly and said, "If you think it's not suitable, it's nothing, I just had a fun."

Zhang Qingze was interrupted by Lu Bing before he finished speaking, and Lu Bing said, "Senior brother, are you really willing?" ”

This time it was Zhang Qingze's turn to be stunned, hesitantly nodded, Lu Bing high-fived and celebrated: "That's really good, I was worried that Senior Brother, you looked down on mortal things and didn't want to go out for such mundane things, but today I didn't expect Senior Brother to be so affectionate in the world, and he is really the great husband of the world." Besides, when I came this time, it was Qingfeng who said that my senior brother is qualified, so I will come to visit, and your senior brother coincides. This matter is settled, I will not go down the mountain today, can I stay on Wudang Mountain, so that I can discuss the details with you while the iron is hot tomorrow. ”

Zhang Qingze agreed again and again, and called the boy to tell him to take Lu Bing down to rest first, and to entertain him well after a tiring journey, and then prepare drinks for Lu Bing in the evening.

Lu Bingxie followed Dao Tong down, and Zhang Qingze's eldest disciple Liu Konghao walked in, clasping his fists and listening to the master's lecture. Zhang Qingze took a sip of tea and asked, "Did you hear everything?" ”

Liu Konghao clenched his fists and replied, "Master, this is a God-given opportunity, congratulations to Master, congratulations to Master." Wudang will take this opportunity to shine and regain his position at the peak of martial arts, and Master will become the leader of the new generation of martial arts. ”

Zhang Qingze nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly asked, "What do you think of Lu Bing?" ”

"He has the bearing of a general, neither humble nor arrogant, even if he is in a high position now, he is the emperor's stand-in General Longying, but he is even more humble, it is really rare, this person must have great talent." Liu Konghao said.

Zhang Qingze laughed, his laughter suddenly stopped, and he scolded: "Not only is it a great talent, Lu Bing just now was scolding people and not spitting dirty words, Lu Bing was disgusting enough for me to choke, I also just reacted, I want to capture the reason for indulging in desire to rise first, hum, it's really not a thing!" ”

"Master, do you mean not to agree to Lu Bing's request?" Liu Konghao wondered.

"Although Lu Bing is very disgusting, but this thing is still quite cute, Master, let me tell you, to be a man is to have fun in time, and if you don't take advantage of it, you are a fool." Zhang Qingze said with a cheap smile.
