In the era of the Tang Dynasty, which was strictly hierarchical and ruled by gate lords, Chang Zhi, who was the commander of the three armies, was actually quite humble because he was a general of Fanguo. Not to mention that he is inferior to others, at least in front of a noble child like Xue Shao, it is difficult for him to raise his head.

Therefore, yesterday, Xue Shao said in front of the officers and soldiers of the three armies, "Let Hei Zhi Changzhi take the initiative to see me", not just out of temporary arrogance, but also the Tang Dynasty Commander-in-Chief, who is also the commander of the three armies, is fully qualified to be such a high-flying and domineering. Moreover, even if the black tooth Changzhi did it, he would not feel so ashamed.

Therefore, when Hei Tooth Changzhi stood in front of Xue Shao, he did not have any look of grievance and anger. Instead, he came with humility and respect.

"The last general has black teeth, and he has long admired the name of Young Marshal Xue. See ...... today" When he said this, Hei Yan Chang Fang raised his eyes for the first time to take a look at Xue Shao, but as a result, the second half of the sentence was choked.

"It's comforting, isn't it?" Xue Shao smiled slightly, and stood up and hugged his fists and saluted back, "I have also admired the general's name for a long time, fortunately!" ”

There was already a lot of consternation on the big yellow and shiny face of the black tooth Changzhi, "Please forgive me for being abrupt...... I didn't think that the young marshal was so young?! ”

Wu Ming interjected on the side, "Otherwise, how can there be the nickname of a young marshal?" ”

"Yes, yes!" The black tooth Changzhi slapped his forehead and laughed, his voice was like a bell, "The last general is confused!" Confused! ”

"General, please be seated!"

"The last general will take a seat!"

The people in the army are very simple, and there are not too many polite words.

After Heiya Changzhi sat down, he clenched his fists with a sincere face and said, "The last general is here to make amends." Yesterday, he was rude to the young marshal before the battle, and asked the young marshal to be magnanimous and forgive the last general! ”

Xue Shao chuckled disappreciatively, "I have heard for a long time that General Heizhi is extremely strict in governing the army, and I am also the one who leads the troops, so I can understand that yesterday's incident was not out of your original intention." ”

"It's just one ......" Hei Zhi Chang frowned and drooped his eyelids, as if he could not speak.

"I want to hear about it."

Hei Tooth Changzhi took a deep breath and slapped his knee on the shoulder, and said: "Although the last general is the commander of the three armies, not all of his subordinates are pro-honors. And ......"

"There's a lot of constraints around you, right?" Xue Shao smiled disapprenorantly, this kind of thing doesn't need to be stated in detail at all, just guess.

Hei Tooth Changzhi frowned for a moment and acquiesced, and said: "Even if you come to visit the young marshal today, the last general will be like a thief......

"Understandable." Xue Shao smiled and said, "I want to know, what right-hand men have been assigned to you, the commander of a lonely family, by the imperial court?" ”

"There are a lot of generals, most of them are some generals in the Royal Forest Army, and the last general has not yet recognized them." Hei Zhi Changzhi said, "Among them, there is a deputy chief of the marching road, and the young marshal must be no stranger. ”

"Who?"

"A thousand horsemen, the martial arts."

Xue Shao smiled. This is simply expected, with Wu Zetian's usual style, if there is no intervention from the Wu family's nephews, it is simply unreasonable.

Hei Ya Changzhi didn't comment much on Wu Yougui, but sighed lightly with shame and helplessness, and said: "I don't know how Wu Yougui was born, I learned that the last general invited Master Wu and others to come and settle here in advance." He threatened me, saying that I was disobedient to the Queen Mother and her old man, and secretly colluded with Cheng Wuting privately. At last time, he couldn't argue, so he regarded it as a handle in his hand, and kept being aggressive with me. If it weren't for the general's best to suppress it, he, the deputy chief manager, would have already grabbed the military power and waved his army north. ”

Xue Shao smiled again, "You can rest assured, he is only acting for a while at most." Because, he doesn't have the guts of this dog at all. ”

Hei Tooth Chang Zhi also smiled, thus acquiescing to Xue Shao's statement - if Wu Yougui really had the courage and ability to go north to solve the Hebei problem, he would not be just a fox and a fake tiger!

"The last general dares to ask, does the young marshal have some old grudges with Wu Yougui?" Hei Tooth Changzhi asked cautiously.

Xue Shao nodded, "It's not a secret, many people know it, including the Queen Mother." ”

"No wonder ......" Hei Fang Changzhi nodded abruptly, but did not continue.

Xue Shao just smiled slightly, thinking that the black tooth Changzhi knew how to be cautious. In fact, I don't need him to elaborate, I can also imagine how desperate that villain Wu Yougui is to take revenge for personal gain, and even put me to death!

"Young marshal, there will be a sentence of persuasion at the end, I don't know whether to say it or not." Black Tooth often clenched his fists, and his tone was quite earnest.

"Please."

Hei Tooth Changzhi thought for a moment and said: "I don't know much about the affairs of the court. But one thing is certain, now...... The Queen Mother was quite dissatisfied with Cheng Wuting. ”

"Is it more than dissatisfaction?" Xue Shao smiled indifferently and simply said it.

"Then why does the young marshal insist on going his own way to protect Cheng Wuting, which is contrary to the wishes of the Queen Mother and her old man?" Hei Tooth Changzhi asked cautiously, "Young Marshal, you are a court horse after all, and even I, a general who is far away in the border field, know that the Queen Mother attaches great importance to you and regards you as a confidant and a pillar of the country." For the sake of a Cheng Wuting, he turned against the Queen Mother...... Young marshal, why bother? ”

Xue Shao was silent for a moment, and said calmly: "If it were your Black Tooth General who had today's situation, I would do the same." ”

The black tooth Changzhi changed color slightly, "Cheng Wuting and the young marshal still have a friendship with the young marshal, but the last general and the young marshal have never known each other...... How so? ”

Xue Shao looked at Hei Tooth Changzhi with a smile on his face, silent.

Black Tooth Changzhi looked at Xue Shao in confusion and longing, waiting for an answer.

"Later, you'll find out."

"This ......" Heizhi Changzhi was obviously a little disappointed, but he didn't express any dissatisfaction.

"General Blacktooth, it's not early, you should go back." Xue Shao suddenly left his seat and turned around, and gave a very unceremonious eviction order in a cold tone.

Hei Tooth Chang Zhi was stunned at first, and then had to stand up, silently punched Xue Shao's back, and turned to leave.

Wu Ming was very much in line with Xue Shao's wishes, and got up to see off the guests.

Walking out of the gate of the village, before the black tooth Changzhi was about to get on the horse, he hugged his fists and said to Wu Ming: "Master Wu, are you very disgusted by the young marshal?" ”

"Quite the opposite." Wu Ming smiled slightly.

Hei Zhi Changzhi nodded as if he didn't believe it, and smiled bitterly, "It's also true, it's not convenient to leave the army for a long time, otherwise it will make Wu Yougui suspicious." The young marshal drove me away, indeed for my own good. ”

"Like such subtle details, the young marshal never deliberates." Wu Ming said calmly: "When you see how the young marshal treats Wu Yougui, you will understand his likes and dislikes." ”

The black tooth Changzhi twisted his eyebrows and was silent for a long time, suddenly felt a light in his heart, and hurriedly took two steps forward to Wu Ming's side, and suddenly knelt down on one knee and hugged his fists and bowed, "I am dull, I hope that the master will teach you!" ”

Wu Ming smiled, holding the elbows of the black tooth Chang Zhi and carrying the light support of the dark force, the black tooth Chang Zhi suddenly felt like the clouds were flying through the fog, and the whole person stood up straight.

Stunned!

"Master good kung fu!" The first time Hei Tooth Changzhi saw Wu Ming resorting to his means, he couldn't help but exclaim, "I admire it very much!" ”

Wu Ming smiled and said casually: "Is the general interested in listening to me tell a rather boring country anecdote?" ”

"Listen to me!"

Wu Ming nodded with a smile and said, "There was once a rat plague in a farmer's house, and the grain in the warehouse was greatly damaged. So the farmer raised a cat, a big black cat, and caught mice quite well, and it didn't take long for the mice in the farmer's house to be wiped out. The farmer was so fond of the big black cat that he went down to the river every day to bring him delicious little fish to feed him. Since then, this big black cat does not have to catch mice every day, and it has good food and drink. Slowly, it became more and more lazy and playful, and sometimes ran out for days without coming home. Not long after, the farmer's house was infested with rats again, and the big black cat was playing with ambition outside, and it was difficult for the owner to call it back. Even when it came back, it no longer tried to catch mice, but went outside twice for three days to have fun and disappeared. General, what do you do if it's you, a farmer? ”

"What do you want to do with such a disobedient and useless lazy cat? Getting out of the house is light! Black Tooth Changzhi said without thinking.

Wu Ming smiled, "But the farmers didn't do it." ”

"Oh?" Blacktooth Changzhi was slightly surprised.

Wu Ming said: "He has another white cat, just like the big black cat at the beginning, very good at catching mice. Strangely, the big black cat never left the house after returning home, and began to try to catch mice again. The farmer prepares only one small fish a day and feeds it to the cat that is the most obedient or catches the most mice. Since then, there is no rat infestation in the farmer's house, only the black cat and the white cat are left who bite and fight every day for a small fish! ”

The eyes of the black tooth Changzhi were stunned and suddenly realized, and he bent down and hugged his fists and bowed, "Below, thank you Master Jin Yu for your good words!" ”

"It's hard to walk at night, but it's easy for the general to walk!"

Tuk-tuk, the sound of horses' hooves with black teeth faded away.

Wu Ming sighed leisurely and returned to Xue Shao's side.

"He's gone?"

"Gone."

Xue Shao raised his neck and drank a glass of wine, looked up with a wry smile, and looked at Wu Ming blankly.

Wu Ming sat down beside Xue Shao and comforted him lightly, "It's better to be an enemy of a gentleman than to be a villain." ”

Xue Shao nodded silently, but there was a faint trace of cold in his heart...... Coolness!

Wu Ming gently patted Xue Shao's shoulder like an old father and said, "Think more about the good side of everything." ”

"What do you think?" Xue Shao smiled bitterly with a little anger, "She is not only my mother-in-law but also my Bole, and she was once an ally who shared weal and woe with me. Now she is deliberately in the army, erecting a strong enemy for me. I can be friends with Heizhi Changzhi, but we can only die and never get along, and even become old enemies! ”

"The young marshal is really like a mirror, you don't need me to teach you." Wu Ming said softly, "Actually, if it were you, you wouldn't have completely handed over your net worth and life to another person without reservation, right?" ”

"......" Xue Shao, speechless.

"At best, the Queen Mother took so much effort to transfer a famous Black Tooth Changzhi to catch you against each other, doesn't it also happen to prove that you are important and extraordinary now?" Wu Ming was still soft-spoken, and there was a hint of the same as Xue Shao's expression in his expression, and he smiled helplessly, "As a minister, especially a capable minister who is like a pillar of the humerus, this kind of thing is always inevitable." ”

"Emperor's Mind! ……”

Xue Shao couldn't help but quench in annoyance, it was nothing more than this ghost thing doing trouble!
