please make me king

Chapter 49 Life or Death
If Chen Jindou was here, seeing this so-called "practical Taoist" would definitely laugh his teeth off.It turned out that this "retreat Taoist" was none other than the Taoist Ma who had just "emerged" yesterday.

After Zhang Shun came back that day, he talked about the "Zijin Liang" and mentioned that "Zijin Liang" claimed to be the "Second Leader", so Daoist Ma paid attention.It is said that Zhang Shun became impatient because of what Zhang Shen said; in fact, Daoist Ma also became a little impatient because Zhao Yutou, Chen Jingzhi and others were gradually being reused.

Ma Daochang and Chen Jindou are both quack warlocks, and they can be deceived and abducted, but if they talk about making plans and governing the military and politics, they have learned six orifices - they don't know anything.Therefore, fighting on the same stage with Zhao Yutou and Chen Jingzhi has no chance of winning.This time Daoist Ma heard about the "Zijin Liang", but his heart moved, he felt that he felt the pulse of the "Zijin Liang", and there was a "deceived death" incident.

So Ma Daochang said to Zhang Shun: "This man calls himself 'Zijin Liang', which means the white jade pillar that holds up the sky, and the Zijin Liang that erects the sea. The leader of the Sixth Battalion, the ability can be imagined, why is he so self-proclaimed? He wants to say this to others, to express his injustice. To whom? Only to the government. It is enough to show that this person has no courage to rebel , Zhao'an has a heart."

"After the death of the Great Master Wang Jiayin, he still called himself the 'Second Master'. You should know that he has neither responsibility nor ambition. If this person has the intention of sweeping the world, including the universe, encompassing the world, and swallowing the heart of the world. I should be the only one who is the only one, and I am not willing to be under others."

"It can be seen from this that this person only knows its disadvantages and does not know its benefits. He is unwilling to take the blame for others and be the mainstay, so he is eager to get rid of the position of leader. There is lingering prestige, and the people of the world still have lingering fears, it is not the time of disintegration. I don't know if the lord will dare to put him to death and live later, and advocate the righteousness of the world?"

"Where is this advocating the righteousness of the world? Is this a pioneer for the king?" Zhang Shun couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words, "Master Dao, I know your intentions. But to seize the world, it doesn't pay attention to first come first served, but pays attention to the last come first. to."

"The reason for this is that 'a centipede is dead but not stiff'. Although the Ming Dynasty was in danger, when it was hit by a dying blow, all those who were fighting with their arms as chariots would be ashes. Today our soldiers are no more than a thousand, lacking guns and armour, and not being trained in time. They are mobs How to sit in the position of leader, how to resist Zhu Ming's return to light before his death?"

"This" Daoist Ma is not a resourceful person after all, so he is really speechless.He thought for a moment and said: "Maybe I can also be a 'life' to seek some benefits for the Lord?"

The term "life" comes from "Sun Tzu's Art of War: Yongjian Chapter". A few days ago, Zhang Shun read that "there are five kinds of time: there is a cause, there is an interior, there is a reverse, there is a death, and there is a life. Five There are five ways to use the time, among which the "birth" means being able to return to the report alive spy.

Its article also says, "In the past when Yin was prosperous, Yizhi was in Xia; when Zhou was prosperous, Lu Ya was in Yin. Therefore, only the wise kings and generals, who can use the wisdom of the above, will achieve great success." Yin was an official in the Xia Dynasty; when the Zhou Dynasty arose, Jiang Ziya and Lu Shang were officials in the Yin and Shang Dynasties, which is to use "Shangzhi" as a spy.

When Zhang Shun was studying, he took the opportunity to explain to his subordinates to cultivate their military talents.Daoist Ma meant this time that he wanted to follow the example of "Yi Yin" and "Lu Shang" and become a "Shangzhi" spy.

"Ma Daochang, are you going to abandon me?" Zhang Shun was shocked when he heard the words, "The matter of Chenzhou Mansion started and ended because of you. I have neither brothers to support nor parents to protect me. Shunquan relied on the power of the Taoist priest to come to this day. If even you have to leave me, does it really mean that even the heavens will abandon me?"

When talking about the depth of love, Zhang Shun burst into tears, as if mourning his concubine.Daoist Ma was also deeply moved, tearfully grateful, and swore to the sky: "The poor have to meet the lord, just like Zhuge Kongming has to meet Liu Huangshu. How dare you not bow down and die? It's just that I have neither merit nor the ability to help the world. Policy, in the long run, why help the lord to seize the world? I beg the lord for permission, so that Pindao can also have a chance to be famous in history!"

Hearing the words, Zhang Shun knew that he could no longer stay, so he pondered for a moment and asked, "If Qing enters the 'Zijinliang' camp, what should I do?"

"I should take advantage of what I like and tell the lord. Please ask the lord for good things, and avoid them for the lord when there are dangers." Daoist Ma replied.

"No! I order you to consider 'Zijin Liang' wholeheartedly. If it can be helped, then help it. If it cannot be helped, let me replace it!" Zhang Shun said firmly.

"My lord!" Daoist Ma was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and said, "A poor daoist can learn from the sun and the moon with his loyalty, and An Neng will do such a thing against the Lord!"

"No, no!" Zhang Shun laughed, "This is not a matter of betraying the Lord, but a matter of loyalty. Who is 'Zijin Liang'? Although he has no ambitions, he is still a hero. , It’s just because you don’t have the power. If you encounter wind and rain, you will turn into a dragon, and you don’t know! Now I ask you to help him with all your heart, so you can get rid of his doubts and save your family’s life.”

"When it is used, the whole body is the top, and the death is the bottom. The Taoist priest's wealth is more important than a thousand pieces of gold, and should not be thrown lightly. The method is like an assassin. Raise soldiers for thousands of days, wait for several years, and kill in an instant. Taoist priests should also be In this way, it is reasonable to serve him as a staff member, and only wait for the critical moment, so that you can see him with a penniless dagger!"

Hearing this, Daoist Ma was startled and astonished, and said gratefully: "My lord treats me like a gentleman of the country, dare you repay me with a gentleman of the country? As long as any poor Taoist lives for a day, he will not let the 'Zijin Liang' be harmful to the lord. Even a single scheming will not make 'Zijin Liang' abdicate and let others be better than others."

Therefore, the two vowed together: "The minister must be loyal to the king!" "The king must trust the minister!"Afterwards, Zhang Shun personally designed a white Taoist robe based on the appearance of the immortal in the images of later generations, arranged his hair and beard, and changed his temperament. He became an old immortal "retreat Taoist".

Later, Zhang Shun claimed that Daoist Ma had accidentally contracted the plague and became seriously ill.At that time, Chen Jindou, Zhao Yutou and others wanted to see each other but could not.After a few days, Zhang Shun passed away suddenly, and Zhang Shun personally announced the funeral, claiming that the "horse steward" had passed away.

Chen Jindou, Zhao Yutou and Chen Jingzhi are all shrewd people, they knew there was a fraud in it, so they didn't dare to ask Zhang Shun.Then, "Taoist Ma" died of illness, and "Taoist Practitioner" came out of the mountain; Zhang Shun lost "Horse Steward" sadly, and "Zijin Liang" was happy to win "Old Immortal".
