Lu Bing, who led the crowd to Jiangsu, had just entered the big tent and had not yet spoken a few words to Tang Kekuan, and ushered in the eight-hundred-mile urgent holy decree. Lu Bing, as the Dragon Shadow General, could stand up and not kneel, but he still knelt down. The officials of the pedestrian department and the eunuchs who were traveling with them looked at each other and nodded with satisfaction, they had to report this matter to the emperor after returning to Beijing.

It turned out that the holy decree announced that Lu Bing would return to Beijing immediately, and there must be no mistake. After Lu Bing thanked him, he ordered someone to take the official to rest well, and presented a large amount of several hundred taels of tickets. The officials took the money, but they didn't let Lu Bing do it in a big way, saying that if Lu Bing gave an answer as soon as possible, they would be able to return to Beijing to resume their lives.

Lu Bing deeply understood the meaning of the words, and then sent those Beijing officials down. After turning around and returning to the big tent, Lu Bing rubbed his face a little tiredly and said to Tang Kekuan: "I will try to go early and return early, and set off after a little arrangement, and after a few days Master Shaolin Wusu came, he told him to be calm and wait for me in a few days, and I will come back." ”

Tang Kekuan nodded, and Lu Bing continued: "You are strictly guarded, don't make big moves first, and then make plans when you come back, the iron horse I hired will keep you, use it carefully, these people are more wild and only recognize me as the gold master." ”

"I made a note of it." Tang Kekuan said: "However, Brother Wenfu, why did the Holy Lord suddenly recruit you back to Beijing this time, the commander was temporarily recalled on the battlefield, I am afraid that the fierce will be more auspicious and the fate will be more than lucky." ”

"Hey, I know this too." Lu Bing loosened his weak arm and said, Tang Kekuan stood up and personally rubbed his shoulders and pinched his back for Lu Bing, it didn't hurt that there were only two brothers in the big tent, Lu Bing smiled and thanked him and continued: "The saint told me to go back." This is like Yue Fei's twelve gold medals, if I don't go back, I will become a traitor if I am not a traitor. No way. The saint's suspicion is well known, and adding suspicion to him will only make him mad. ”

"This matter is so troublesome, we are for the country and the people, but it is suspicious, but those corpse vegetarians in the court are favored by the emperor, what is the reason!" Tang Kekuan said with some resentment.

Lu Bing shook his head: "Wuhe, you can't say that." You see, I am now the Dragon Shadow General under 10,000 people, and you are young and have a heavy army. This shows that the loyal and traitor defend themselves that there is still karma in the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, and the emperor's holy eyes are not blinded, and he is not a mediocre master. ”

"Brother Wenfu, there are just you and me in the big tent. Could it be that you still want to bluff me into saying that the Holy One is a Ming King? Tang Kekuan said where he was filled with righteous indignation. stopped rubbing Lu Bing's shoulders, and turned to the position facing Lu Bing and asked.

Lu Bing smiled indifferently: "I'm talking about the way of heaven, people are watching the sky, you will have a good reward if you do well, I didn't say that Zhu Houxi is a Ming Jun, I just said that he is not mediocre." But no matter what, no matter what he did to me before, he was my brother after all. Over the years, he also knew that he was wrong. Hey, everyone has their own shortcomings. I have it, you have it, even the emperor is no exception. We can't ask others to be perfect, because we are not perfect, and since he is not a perfect person and has the right to do it, it is nothing more than the right to magnify his shortcomings. ”

Tang Kekuan nodded, and after a while, his solemn expression turned into a smile and said: "Lu Wenfu, you are getting deeper and deeper now, and you have to use your brain to understand when you talk to you." ”

"We're not young, and we're all husbands and fathers, so it's time to calm down." Lu Bing said, Tang Kekuan said: "Don't we, it's you, you have just married so many wives in the first year, I will say that my sister-in-law is also generous, if you change a woman, it will make a fuss for you." Hey, what kind of person is really blessed, what more can the husband ask for if he has this wife? ”

"Know a fart, this is called a good example of three from four virtues, a pacesetter who abides by women's morals, hehe, Lao Tzu is a good life." Saying that, Lu Bing stood up, and Tang Kekuan asked, "Why are you going?" ”

Lu Bing replied: "Go and inspect and urge the soldiers to set up camp, how to camp is also a knowledge, I have not studied much recently, I suffered a big loss last time in Gutian, and it is not too late to make amends." ”

"You'd better rest before you go." Tang Kekuan said, Lu Bing shook his head and said: "It's too late, these officials who came to give orders didn't let me entertain, saying that I would go back after a short rest, and that would definitely be to report to Zhu Houxi." If I don't act quickly, I'm afraid that Zhu Houxi will cause some turmoil from suspicion again. The people are suffering, the people are suffering, the Ming Dynasty can no longer withstand the toss, and the people can't stand the toss. ”

Lu Bing took the lead and walked out, Tang Kekuan looked at Lu Bing's tall but slightly tired back, and nodded, this is the person he wants to follow, he didn't follow it before, and he didn't have it now.

—————————————————————————————————————

Lu Bing fell ill when he arrived in the capital, and it is said that after practicing kung fu to this point, he should not have typhoid fever, but he traveled day and night, and he was running around all year round, worrying about the wind and sun. In addition, the climate difference between the north and the south is too large, and the temperature difference and climate have also changed, and the body finally can't stand such a toss and falls ill.

Typhoid fever was a fatal disease in ancient times, it is said that Lu Bing came through time, and there should be corresponding antibodies in his body, but in fact this is not the case, his body is very uncomfortable, this kind of discomfort is different from the pain, as if it was slowly tortured. Lu Bing thought of the soul exchange that Wang Yulu in Fulong Village said and the strong body he had crossed over, and he finally admitted that it was just a transfer of souls.

Fortunately, Lu Bing has thousands of medical skills, a few pairs of decoction adjustments, and the pure yang physique is swimming around, which is the only way to save the day. Lu Bingren was in the capital, but he couldn't enter the palace to see him, even if he was recovering from a serious illness, what disease was the easiest to spread, for fear of infecting the saint. Lu Bing was very anxious in his heart, the war around Daming was still continuous, and the southeast coast was even more precarious, but he could only delay time in the capital. Although Yu Dayou, Tang Kekuan, Li Du and others have good abilities, and there are other generals besides them who can be used, Lu Bing is still not at ease.

In his opinion, Zhu Houxi's actions are incomprehensible, this is his old Zhu family's country, seeing the lives of the people and the country damaged, he is not worried? Just worried about getting sick? Even if it's a disease that can kill you. Of course, Zhu Houxi is not worried. Now he is also very conflicted, thinking of what he did a few years ago, and what Lu Bing did for himself. and later insights, Zhu Houxi understood that he had to believe in Lu Bing now, otherwise he would become a peerless stunned monarch who was ridiculed by everyone.

But there is a voice in his heart that tells him to pay attention to Lu Bing, otherwise people's hearts are easy to change from the belly, in case Lu Bing is full of wings and difficult to control and seize power, it is a great crime to be ashamed of the ancestors. When the time comes, it will inevitably be named the name of the deceased emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Now no matter what, Lu Bing is coming with one move, which shows that he is still under his control. As for the common people, the Ming Dynasty has a vast territory and a large population, and the peasants in Jiangnan are not worried even if they die, as long as they move people from other places. Merchants, scholars, and wealthy people don't have to think about it. Most of them live in big cities. There will be no danger, even if an enemy enters the city, they will not all be killed, and extorting money will have to be extorted for dozens of days.

If the land is lost, it can be regained, anyway, Lu Bingzai, now that he wants to recuperate, let him recuperate, just so Rong Zhen can observe and see if Lu Bing is abnormal. The contradictory Zhu Houxi was suspicious of Lu Bing, and told him to trust Lu Bing, and he even questioned whether he should give Lu Bing, the seat of the Dragon Shadow General, before. At this time, Zhu Houxi was on the verge of schizophrenia.

It had been half a month since Lu Bing's body was in good condition, and finally Lu Bing got the opportunity to enter the temple and face the saint. Come to the top of the main hall. Zhu Houxi not only stepped forward to speak, nor did he beckon Lu Bing to step forward, but let Lu Bing stop in the middle of the Fengtian Temple, and there were several layers of thin sand between the two, as if this could block the spread. The entire hall was filled with all kinds of lavender medicines to prevent the typhoid fever that Lu Bing might still carry.

Lu Bing waved his robe and was about to kneel, Zhu Houxi said: "No need, Lu Aiqing doesn't have to be polite." Are you feeling better? ”

"Thank you for your concern, and the minister is grateful only to die." Lu Bing hugged his fists and said politely, to be honest, he didn't want to kneel, and now he just happened to borrow the slope to get off the donkey. The man has gold under his knees, let alone kneeling for Zhu Houxi. However, he is the king of a country, and etiquette is very important in today's world, and Lu Bing must respect some etiquette if he wants to serve the public, such as kneeling and bowing.

Zhu Houxi didn't care, when he was with Lu Bing, he hoped that there would be more feelings between the two than the monarch and the minister, as the emperor he had no friends, in his opinion, anyone would covet his throne, and the only friend was Lu Bing, although Lu Bing was also likely to usurp power and seize the throne. But guarding others is different, Lu Bing must show respect for himself, and it is beyond the abnormal respect, which is also the contradiction of Zhu Houxi.

Lu Bing knelt down in front of the pedestrian division and the herald eunuch who sent the decree to Zhu Houxi to earn enough face, so it is not so important to kneel or not now. And Lu Bing knew Zhu Houxi's stinky problems and contradictory thoughts, so now he will take advantage of the trend and no longer kneel. Zhu Houxi said: "Lu Bing, I named you the general of the Dragon Shadow and went out to conquer Siyi on behalf of me, I don't know how the battle is going?" ”

Lu Bing almost crooked his nose, isn't this asking knowingly, if you don't know the way, you will call me back? Lu Bing naturally couldn't say that, so he explained the battle situation around Daming as it was.

Zhu Houxi nodded while listening, Lu Bing couldn't see his expression clearly through the veil, but Lu Bing saw Zhu Houxi's movements clearly, thinking that this emperor was fooled, and other skills did not rise, but his acting skills have improved by leaps and bounds.

Zhu Houxi didn't know what Lu Bing thought, and he still felt good about himself, so he pretended to ask: "Lu Bing, according to what you said, I have some understanding of the battle situation. But I don't understand, the nomads in the northwest have fierce iron horses, no different from the Tartars back then, you can defeat them, why did you stop when you get to Gutian? And in the northwest, why don't you drive straight into it and send troops from Yili to the south to strike at the hinterland of Turpan? ”

Of course, the vicious battle fought by Xia Dade was also crucial, effectively eliminating the enemy's arrogance and fresh force, but the most important thing was to rely on strategy. Stratagems are mostly used to wear down the enemy, including the discord between the monarch and the allies. Lu Bing said, when it came to the discord between the monarch and the minister, Zhu Houxi's expression dimmed, and he wondered if he had also fallen for the discord he had set up?
