Dozens of miles outside Chang'an City, I saw a big dust on the official road, and a group of officers and soldiers galloped from the east, with bright armor and strong men and horses. The pedestrians on the road were unable to dodge, and there were not a few people who were injured by military horses.

But see the current two horses, each waving a big flag, the left flag with gold thread embroidered with a big "An" word, flying in the wind, the right side embroidered is the official title, on the book "Pinglu Festival Envoy".

"Jiedu Envoy" was an important town in the Tang Dynasty, and in the places under his jurisdiction, the military and civil affairs were all under his control, just like a small kingdom, and the power was incomparable.

After the two horses, there was a big fat man like a fat pig, wearing chain gold armor, sitting majestically on a high-headed horse, and raised his whip and shouted in front of him and behind him: "Sons, don't worry about those monkey cubs on the road, if you step on it, it counts, and the horse gallops, our family will invite the soldiers to drink in the best building in Chang'an tonight!"

"The general is mighty!" all the soldiers behind him shouted.

In front of the military column, a white-robed and silver-armored young general frowned slightly when he saw this, and then stepped forward and said to the fat general: "Uncle An, now that Chang'an is close at hand, we don't need to be in a hurry!"

Another middle-aged man dressed as a scribe also stepped forward at the right time and said: "What Prince Chaoying said is right! Lord, after all, this is the suburbs of Chang'an, and at the feet of the Son of Heaven, we need to pay more attention!"

When the fat general heard this, he immediately stretched his face and said impatiently: "What are you afraid of him doing? Is there still that blind little official who dares to go to the Holy Lord to sue a certain family? Even if there is, what if there is? There is a certain family that the Jiwen brothers are in charge of the Yushitai, who can sue me?"

"Alas...... Uncle has you forgotten that Lord Jiwen is not a prince in the imperial history now!" The white-robed young man put his hand on his forehead and sighed lightly.

"What? He lost his official position so quickly, and the investment that a certain family has invested in him these days has not been in vain!" exclaimed the fat general.

The white-robed young general knew that he was talking about more than half a year ago, and Ji Wen was ordered by the emperor to go to Pinglu to review Zhang Shouqi's impeachment of the other party.

And this fat general is naturally An Lushan, the envoy of Pinglu Jiedu!

As soon as Jiwen arrived in Pinglu that day, he was invited to the house by An Lushan, and after some heart-to-heart, he became brothers with the other party. So, Jiwen completed the "investigation" that took more than half a month in the house of the Jiedu envoy, and did not forget to bring some "local products" given by his brothers when he left.

The result can be imagined, Zhang Shouqi not only did not tell An Lushan, but threw away his net worth and life.

And Ji Wen was greatly appreciated by Li Linfu because of the subsequent Li Shi case, and under the successive increase in officials, in just one year, he jumped from the Fa Cao of Yijing Zhaofu to the imperial history Zhongcheng who was in charge of Tianxian. For such a brother with prosperous official fortunes, An Lushan naturally cares about it, and sends a batch of local products from Pinglu to Beijing almost every month. What's more, his brother has suddenly become an official, and the guys in the house must not have prepared anything, how can this brother not have something to say?

Who knows, it's only been a few days! Now that you've lost your position?

The white-robed young general hurriedly replied: "Lord Jiwen has not lost his official position, but he has been promoted again!"

"What? He was promoted again? Haha! This brother of a certain family has not recognized it in vain! It has only been a few days since he has been promoted again! I'm afraid it won't be long before I can take a position as a slaughterer!" An Lushan laughed.

The white-robed young general shook his head helplessly, so he had to turn his gaze to the scribe beside him.

The middle-aged scribe understood, and hurriedly said: "The lord is not happy first, although this Lord Jiwen has said that he has been promoted, but in fact, he is on the path of others!"

"What?" An Lushan's laughter stopped abruptly, looked at the scribe who wanted to speak and stopped, waved his hand irritably, and said, "Don't stop here!

"Mr. Yan, these twists and turns are too big to listen to a certain family! You pick up some important things and talk to a certain family!"

An Lushan beat the horse in front, and the scribe surnamed Yan followed, but he didn't see that just a mile behind this group of officers and soldiers, there was a rickety man named Huazi who was following unhurriedly, and when he looked up by chance, a pair of big eyes were full of hatred......

Although An Lushan seems to be rude, he is as careful as a hair, and he has his own city in his chest, which can be seen from the fact that he deliberately handed over Ji Wen's small Fa Cao at the beginning!

This Yan surnamed scribe surnamed Yan Mingzhuang, usually not good at poetry and songs, just like to watch some of the ghost valley yin and yang learning, but also a small gain, in An Lushan for many years, with him from a small side of the general to now a town festival, deeply convinced by An Lushan.

This An Lushan is also a master who is willing to listen to others, and he knows the truth that if he doesn't understand, he will leave it to those who know how to do it. Such a style also made Yan Zhuang greatly moved, and took it as the master!

Yan Zhuang sorted out his words and said, "The lord may have drunk a few more cups that day and forgot about it. A month ago, I reported this to my lord, and now Lord Jiwen is no longer in charge of the Imperial Observatory, but has been transferred to Tobe Langzhong!"

"This Imperial Historical Observatory Palm Seal Hall official was originally the Imperial Historian in the Qin and Han Dynasties, but the Imperial Historian of this Dynasty was mostly a fictitious title granted to high-ranking officials, and the Imperial History Zhongcheng became the head of the Imperial Historical Observatory, and the Household Langzhong only had the post of Shangshu, and then up was the Prime Minister in the Political Affairs Hall! Lord Jiwen has indeed risen in grade, but the Imperial Historical Observatory is in charge of Tianxian and pickets hundreds of officials, and the power can be imagined, and although the Household Langzhong is a fat shortage, it is far inferior to the transcendent status of the Imperial History!"

"Isn't Ji Wen the person of the right minister Li Linfu? the little brother was rectified, didn't the right minister react?" An Lushan asked.

"Lord Jiwen was indeed planted in the Imperial Historical Observatory by the Right Minister, and I originally planned to rely on him to hold the knife of the Imperial Historical Observatory for the Right Minister, but I didn't expect it to be kicked away in January!"

"Oh, why is that?" An Lushan asked.

"Because the position of Imperial Doctor, who never gave people lightly, is now manned!" replied solemnly.

"Oh, who is the current Imperial Doctor? I'm afraid this hand is also the handiwork of this person, right?" An Lushan's reaction was not slow.

"That's right! This person's surname is Xu Mingfan, and the reason why Lord Jiwen was transferred to Tobe Langzhong is because of the reason why this person was appointed as the Imperial Doctor!" replied Yan Zhuang.

"Xu Fan, I haven't heard of it!" An Lushan thought back to the famous ministers in the court in the past few years, but found that there was no such person's name.

"The lord doesn't know, Xu Fan was a servant of the Imperial History Taitai Academy a few years ago, and he was demoted to Yuzhang County because of the impeachment of the right minister, and he just recovered two months ago!" As the chief staff of An Lushan, Yan Zhuang naturally looked at the movements of the court.

"Didn't the gentleman say that the Imperial Doctor was a fictitious position? As soon as he had just regained his fictitious title, how could he transfer a real and important post?" An Lushan was not ignorant of the affairs of officialdom.

"What the lord said is right! However, this Xu Fan not only added the title of Imperial Doctor, but when he first arrived at the foot of Chang'an, the saint added eight words to him!" Yan Zhuang said.

An Lushan asked, "Which eight words?"

Yan Zhuang replied: "Tongzhongshu is a flat chapter under the door!"

An Lushan's face changed slightly: "That's the prime minister!"

Yan Zhuang said: "Yes! It is the prime minister! This dynasty has no post of prime minister, and the political affairs hall has been set up, and several of the people in it are the real power of the prime minister, and once these eight words are added, they will be well-deserved prime ministers!"

"Such a degraded official, go to the cabinet to pay respects to the prime minister together, can those big officials in the court agree?" An Lushan wondered.

Although a few months ago, the Right Prime Minister wiped out Li Shizhi and Wei Jian's party, and there is already a trend that will not be lost, and the Holy Lord will inevitably find someone to check and balance, but it is really unknown whether the person who has been found can have this strength and whether he can be recognized by the Manchu Dynasty and the civil and military forces. ”

"However, this Xu Fan, after receiving the emperor's order, the next day, the court of the court meeting actually approved the appointment of the prime minister by an absolute majority, which is really a bit terrifying!"

Yan Zhuang was speechless when he received the news.

"What's the origin of this Xu Fan?" An Lushan reacted immediately.

"Returning to the lord, in the next received the news has been sent to Chang'an, Yuzhang to investigate, now sent to Yuzhang has not returned, Chang'an news is not much, only said that this person is the first year of the Jinshi, has been in the local official, tired to move to the Taiwan Yuan to serve the imperial history, when the imperial history is a great achievement, bounced down a lot of princes and nobles, after the impeachment of the right minister, I heard that the right to kill it, but in the end it was over. Yan Zhuang reported that he had now collected some information.

"Can't find anything? Either this person has nothing to check, or this person's origin is amazing, and our people can't reach it at all!

"It must be the latter, no doubt!" said sternly and categorically.

An Lushan moved his neck full of fat and said, "That's right! It can make the saint think of it for the first time, but after suddenly entering the picture, he can get the approval of Zhu Zi of the Manchu Dynasty, which shows that this person is by no means ordinary!"

"But it's not! This person was silent a month before he arrived in Chang'an, and the court meeting after January was suddenly launched, and the head of the household department Langzhong begged for resignation, and after the holy lord's permission, he quietly transferred Lord Jiwen to the household department, and also served as the post of the imperial historian, becoming a real power imperial historian who has never been there for many years. The most subtle thing is that at the meeting where the three prime ministers of the political hall were divided into six departments, it was the right minister who personally placed the household part under the jurisdiction of this person!"

"Without moving, he cut off one of the arms of the right minister, this Xu Fan should not be underestimated!" An Lushan said with a solemn expression.

"That's right! In today's political affairs hall, the right minister is in charge of the officials and the criminal department, and he is still high, and the second is this Xu Fan, who is in charge of the household department and the Ministry of Industry, and has a mysterious background! As for that Lin Xiliekong, he has the name of the left minister, although he is also in charge of the military department and the ritual department, but Lin Xilie is a scholar, and the Lin family is not a wealthy family, and he has almost no power in the army.

"So, this time we should focus on the right minister and this Xu Fan?" An Lushan asked.

However, the right minister is not greedy for money, and we didn't dare to send it in the past, and Lin Xilie, as the left minister and in charge of the military department, is the top boss of the lord, so he can't go to a visit. And Xu Fan's person will be opposed to the right as soon as he comes, if we are too close to him, I am afraid that the right minister will not be able to say it, after all, there is no decisive victory between the two, and it is not good for us to slack off on either side?"

"Sir, mean, we're going to bet on both sides?"

"Not bad!"

"Then does this Xu Xiang accept gifts?"

"Collect! And it's quite ruthless!"
