Chapter 071: An Qingxu has an appointment
Li Longji spoke amiably, but his heart slowly became indifferent.
And Gao Lishi, who knew his intentions well, sighed slightly in his heart, in fact, he was quite unimpressed: a scholar who is less than a weak crown, where can he withstand this level, such a twisted imperial mental technique, such temptations and hints, most of them are useless.
Gao Lishi glanced at Zhang Xuan, who was silent with some pity, feeling sorry.
With Zhang Xuan's talent and ability, he has been vigorously cultivated for a few years, and he will definitely be a pillar of the Tang Dynasty in the future. It's a pity that this son's edge was shown too early, and it was his luck to cause the emperor to value it too early, but why wasn't it his misfortune?
Just when Li Longji was in an irritable mood and was about to impatiently end today's boring and boring performance, he listened to Zhang Xuan's voice under the bookcase: "Your Majesty, Zhang Xuan is grateful." But the kid is only shallow in learning and young and shallow, and he really doesn't dare to be a ...... in the heavy responsibility of the Ministry of Rites."
Li Longji's eyes lit up, and he suddenly came to his senses, but his face was stunned, and he immediately smiled, "You don't have to be too humble. Your talent, character, and morality are well-known, and I feel quite competent. Besides, Yang Xiang is by the side to guide ......"
"Zhang Xuan is young and still needs to be sharpened. The six yamen were the important weapons of the imperial court, and Zhang Xuan did not dare to trespass...... I also hope that the emperor will take back his life. Zhang Xuan bowed respectfully.
Li Longji raised his eyebrows, feeling a little interesting-this kid is starting to get on the road.
As soon as he thought of this, Li Longji glanced back at Gao Lishi.
Gao Lishi smiled knowingly, and couldn't help but interject, "Enlighten everyone, the old slave thinks that Brother Xuan is not too humble. His talent is certainly amazing, but after all, he is still young. And the important task of the Ministry of Rites really needs to be cautious......"
Li Longji was silent for a while.
Suddenly smiled, waved his hand, and his voice suddenly rose a few degrees, "You are not arrogant, self-vigilant and self-controlled, I am very relieved." In that case, go back to your house and wait for my will. Go ahead. β
Zhang Xuan secretly let out a sigh of relief, hurriedly bowed down to thank him, and then respectfully withdrew from the imperial study, without any stop, leaving the palace and returning home.
Zhang Xuan left, and Li Longji slowly leaned on the brocade pier and smiled.
"Lux, what is your view of this son's heart?"
"Everyone, the old slave thinks, aside from this son's talent, he is not arrogant, not impatient, not impatient, not slow, and his heart is calm and mellow, which is far from being comparable to ordinary young people. In time, he will become the minister of the humerus of the court. Colliers pondered the words and whispered.
Li Longji smiled indifferently, "I'm most worried, although he is talented, he is a madman who doesn't know how to advance or retreat." Now it seems that it is quite a cult - Lux, pass on my words, there will be no meeting in the past few days, and I will feel unbearable in this body. β
"Yang Guozhong and others' recitals, let's put it aside for now. I'm tired, so I'll go to the Imperial Garden with me to relax. β

After leaving the palace and returning to the mansion, Zhang Xuan knew very well in his heart that the emperor was the director of this scene, he was the main actor, and there were several supporting roles that needed to be staged. The play has just begun, and it's still early to end.
Zhang Xuan entered the mansion and was just about to go back to his small courtyard, but his subordinate Zhang Li came to him and reported loudly, "The third son, An Qingxu, the second son of An Lushan, the king of Dongping County, sent someone to send an invitation card to invite the prince to go to Juxiang Pavilion for a banquet. β
"An Qingxu?" Zhang Xuan's heart moved when he heard this, and although An Lushan's second son was good at riding and shooting, he had a cowardly personality and indecisiveness, and the pattern was too small. He came to the door today, and it must have been because of his words at the banquet in the palace that day, which poked him in the sore spot.
It seems that if he doesn't figure out a ugly man, he won't be at ease to leave Chang'an. In that case, let's add fuel to the fire. A strange smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Xuan's mouth, and he waved to Zhang Li, "Zhang Li, prepare the car, I will rush to Juxiang Pavilion immediately to see King An Xiaojun." β
Zhang Xuan was not naΓ―ve enough to think that he could stop the Anshi Rebellion with his three-inch tongue alone. He knew very well in his heart that An Lushan had been preparing for many years to seize the Tang Dynasty, and he had to send it like an arrow on the bow, and this earth-shattering disaster was not something that manpower could stop at all.
All he can do is to pick chestnuts from the left and right. Artificially create some more fierce "sparks" between An Lushan and Yang Guozhong, so that these two "heavyweight boxers" who hold the power of Datang will fight openly and secretly to be more fierce and ruthless, completely mess up this chess game, and see if they can reshuffle the cards in the direction that Zhang Xuan wants.
An Qingxu sat distraughtly in a private room on the second floor of Juxiang Pavilion, his brows furrowed and his face gloomy.
Zhang Xuan spoke wildly at the banquet in the palace - the more An Qingxu thought about it afterwards, the more he felt that something was wrong, thinking that it must be Yang Guozhong who was making trouble behind his back. Otherwise, with Zhang Xuan, a cloth-clothed scholar, even if some talents were appreciated by the concubines, he would definitely not dare to offend An Lushan, the envoy of the Three Towns.
Moreover, these confidential information from Zhang Xuan's mouth are not at all something that a famous child of Chang'an can know. If it is possible that the secrets of the An family will be leaked - then the detective must also be Yang Guozhong.
Immediately, he got the news that Yang Guozhong recommended Zhang Xuan as the Langzhong of the Ministry of Rites. This further strengthened An Qingxu's doubts, and he was going to leave Chang'an immediately and return to Fanyang, but he always hesitated and couldn't leave.

"Ankui, that kid from the Zhang family came out of the palace?" An Qingxu had a gloomy face and said in a deep voice.
A thirty strong man in green clothes with a scimitar across his waist bowed and replied, "General, the little one sent someone to guard outside the palace gate, and saw that Zhang Xuan came out of the palace and went back to the house, and then took the car out of the house to Juxiang Pavilion, it is expected to be to go to the general's appointment." β
"General, such a yellow-mouthed son dares to offend the county king and the general, but he is just a scholar from a down-to-earth family, why bother to work with the general's body of ten thousand gold-why not let the little one bring someone to arrest him and torture him severely...... It's overβ" Ankui's eyes flashed fiercely, and he made a vicious slashing motion.
This person is not only the domestic slave of the An family, but also the military leader of An Lushan's private army, commanding a team of 100 people, and he is even more fierce and brave. This time An Qingxu entered Beijing, he personally led his subordinate sergeants to disguise themselves as An Qingxu's house slave guards to protect An Qingxu when he came to Chang'an.
"Idiot!" An Qingxu raised his eyebrows and reprimanded, "This kid has a bit of fame, he is a person valued by the noble concubine and the emperor, and he is likely to be Yang Guozhong's protΓ©gΓ©, and there are also the Cui family and Princess Yuzhen behind him, how can he act rashly?" β
"It's easy to kill this child, it's more common than pinching an ant to death. But if something goes wrong, whether it is in the palace or Yang Guozhong's side, he will suspect a certain family...... When the time comes, it will cause great trouble, and ruin the great cause of the father, and no one can afford to bear the sin. β
"I want to talk to him." An Qingxu turned his head indifferently and waved his hand, "You retreat first, arrange the carriage and horse luggage, and wait for a certain order at any time." We must leave Chang'an today and return to Fanyang as soon as possible. β
"Whoa." An Kui didn't dare to say anything more, bowed down, and left in a hurry.
