When Guan Yan woke up, it was already early the next morning.

Cai Yan was anxiously waiting by the bedside, when he saw Guan Yan open his eyes, he clicked his lips, and hurriedly handed over a cup of tea, Guan Yan took the tea bowl and drank it all.

"Whew~~~ What time is it?" Guan Yan handed the empty tea bowl to Cai Yan and asked.

"It's time!" Cai Yan frowned and said angrily: "Husband, it's true, on the big day of General Zhao and Miss Mi, what is the reason why you drank ether tincture and got drunk?" ”

Guan Yan smiled slightly, and in retrospect, it seemed that it was really not suitable: "Temperament, temperament!" ”

Guan Yan put on his shoes, walked to the window, and stretched: "What about Zhao'er?" ”

"Zhao'er is led by Chang's mother, on Sister Diao Chan's side!"

"Oh, it's not been a hundred days, you can also help the cicada, I'll go out for a walk." With that, Guan Yan walked towards the door.

"Husband!" Cai Yan grabbed Guan Yan with a worried face: "Don't go far away, come back early!" ”

Guan Yan understood that Cai Yan was scared by several sneak attacks, and when he heard that Guan Yan was going out, the strings in his heart tightened again.

Guan Yan smiled, patted the back of Cai Yan's hand gently, and reassured: "Yan'er, don't worry, the thieves in the city have already been cleansed, not to mention that I still have Dian Wei with me, don't worry!" With that, Guan Yan kissed Cai Yan on the forehead, and then opened the door and walked out.

The street is at its busiest in the early morning.

Wander around the bustling street casually, and your feet are light. The brilliant sunshine shines between the bluestone streets of the vendors, the abrupt cornices, the high fluttering shop signs, the sparkling carriages and horses, the endless flow of pedestrians, and the tranquil and comfortable smiling faces, all of which reflect the prosperity of Luoyang.

Although there were many people, due to the presence of Dian Wei, the surrounding people turned sideways to avoid it, and a vacuum circle was formed next to Guan Yan.

The market is prosperous, and the office of the "Shaofu", which is in charge of the world's taxation, is in this most noisy street.

The Shaofu is mainly divided into two aspects: one is responsible for collecting taxes on mountains and seas and ponds and collecting local contributions for the use of the court; Second, it is responsible for the supply and service of all the needs of the court, such as food, clothing, daily life, and safari play. Since Wang Mang's Shaofu has a huge organization and a large number of subordinate officials, it exceeds the actual needs of the institutions and personnel in charge of the country's financial affairs, so its subordinate officials have the most various levels.

Seeing the Shaofu Office, Guan Yan remembered a person, that is, Liu Ye, the envoy of Cao Cao who was detained by Guan Yan in Luoyang———.

"Let's go, let's take a look at Shaofu!" Guan Yan turned around and walked towards the gate of Shaofu.

"Stop! Who broke into Shaofu? One of the guards stretched out his hand to stop the way.

Guan Yan had already prepared the waist card in the Great Sima Mansion, and he didn't think about "breaking" at all, looking at this soldier shouting nonsense in order to play a majestic show, he just smiled slightly, and handed over the waist card: "Under the order of the Great Sima, I came to meet the young superintendent, and asked the little brother to lead the way!" ”

"Oh oh oh, it turned out to be the lord attached by Da Sima!" After taking the waist card, the soldier instantly smiled with a smile on his face, who made Guan Yan now a person above 10,000 people under one person? Moreover, this Luoyang is nominally owned by the Han court, and it is Guan Yan who actually controls it.

"Adults please, villains will guide you!" With a strong step, the soldiers took the lead and walked inward.

After turning a few corners, Guan Yan suddenly said: "By the way, may I ask the little brother Liu Ye where Lord Liu is handling official business, I have something to discuss with Lord Liu first." ”

"Lord Liu, it's a coincidence, Lord Liu is here!" As he spoke, the soldier pointed to a house on the right.

Guan Yan nodded: "Okay, with Brother Lao leading the way, I will go to find the young master of the mansion later." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, what do you command, just say hello." The soldiers saluted and then withdrew.

At the door of the house, there were two people guarding, seeing that the clothes were the personal guards of Guan Yan's middle school, and when the two saw Guan Yan, they hurriedly stepped forward to luggage: "Meet the lord!" ”

Guan Yan raised his hand: "No need to be polite, what are you two doing here?" ”

The two glanced at each other, and one of them replied, "It was the Seventh Commander who ordered the two of us to guard Lord Liu day and night. ”

Guarding day and night, oh~~~ I remembered that it was my own order to watch Liu Ye closely and prevent Liu Ye from escaping, Guan Yan patted his forehead and pointed inside: "Lord Liu is inside, right?" ”

"Yes!"

"Okay, let's keep standing!" Guan Yan stepped forward and gently pushed the door open.

In addition to the simple furniture, there are not too many furnishings in the house, and above the main seat of the hall, Liu Ye is tilting his head and breathing evenly.

Guan Yan found a place for himself, lifted his robe, sat down proudly, and said leisurely: "Brother Ziyang is leisurely!" ”

Guan Yan's voice was not loud, but it echoed for a long time in this quiet hall, directly waking up Liu Ye on the main seat.

Liu Ye scanned the surroundings with reddish eyes, and when he saw that Guan Yan didn't know when he came, he couldn't help but flash a trace of strangeness in his eyes, but he immediately returned to normal, and said in an unhurried tone: "Da Sima is here in person, and the official has not been far away!" After speaking, Liu Ye also glanced at Guan Yan as a demonstrative.

Guan Yan smiled slightly, as if he didn't care too much about Liu Ye's attitude: "What official business has Brother Ziyang been busy with recently?" ”

"Official business?" Liu Ye smiled coldly: "Shaofu is responsible for serving the Son of Heaven, and more of them are internal servants, and Da Sima put me as a servant, which is really appropriate!" ”

Guan Yan just said casually at first, and didn't care about the rest of the matter, it is estimated that Chen Deng made such an arrangement for the convenience of surveillance.

Years of experience in the upper position have made Guan Yan's face invulnerable: "Oops, it's Yan's negligence!" Since Ziyang has objections to this, why don't you come to look for me? With my talents, I should have found a suitable position. ”

Liu Ye stood up, slowly walked in front of Guan Yan, stared at Guan Yan with his eyes, and said leisurely after a long time: "How long does Da Sima want to imprison me?" ”

"It's serious, it's heavy!" Guan Yan smiled and waved his hand: "I admire Ziyang's talent, I just want to keep Ziyang left and right to solve my confusion!" ”

"Hmph, it's unheard of to stay like this!" Liu Ye waved his sleeves, turned his head, and no longer looked at Guan Yan.

Guan Yan continued: "Guan Yan's move is indeed despicable, but the heart of seeking talents can be learned from heaven and earth! And for several months, that Cao Cao only thought about Puyang City, and never negotiated with me about Ziyang; I expect that even if Ziyang returns, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Cao Cao to reuse! If Ziyang is willing, he will go to Jizhou to take another driver, and I will personally repair a letter to General Zhang Yan, and I will treat him with a teacher; If Ziyang is unwilling to stay, I will send someone to escort Ziyang to Puyang, and Ziyang will decide on his own! “
