Lushan has been active in the DPRK for a long time, and for him, the biggest goal is to make a festival envoy, and the second is to temporarily not implement the new salt law in Youzhou, but both Li Linfu and Zhang Qiu and Qiong have a vague attitude towards his two intentions.

According to the Tang system, the right to appoint officials above the third rank is in the hands of Li Longji, but the prime minister has the right to nominate him, and generally speaking, if he is not involved in party disputes, most of the nominations of the prime minister will be approved according to the normal transfer and promotion process. An Lushan is like this, he is neither a member of the Zhang Qiu Party nor a member of the Prime Minister's Party, if Li Linfu puts forward a promotion proposal, he may be able to get the Hedong Jiedu Envoy, especially when the Yongwang Moutai is not successful, he is far away to lead the Anxi Dadu Protector and Hedong Jiedu Envoy two positions, which is obviously a little inappropriate.

The Zhang Qiu Party controlled the salt government, and as long as they found any slightly glamorous reasons, they could suspend the implementation of the salt law in Youzhou, but unfortunately, Li Linfu and Zhang Qiu Jianqiong were unwilling to make concessions on these two matters.

Now he can only directly put forward his request to the emperor, and Li Longji's summons gave him such an opportunity.

An Lushan walked into Li Longji's study with two fat short legs, and fell to the ground like a round ball, "Weichen An Lushan knocks on His Majesty the Emperor, I wish His Majesty the Emperor long live, long live, long live!" ”

Li Longji likes An Lushan more, likes him to have a comedic effect all over his body, and every time he summons An Lushan, he feels relaxed and happy, which can only be obtained from Li Qing and An Lushan.

He glanced at An Lushan, who looked like a pumpkin on the ground, and saw that his belly was attached to the ground, which was very funny, so he couldn't help but laugh and said: "An Hu'er, I haven't seen you for a few months, it seems that I have gained weight again, is it because I went back and married a concubine?" ”

An Lushan stood up and patted his belly, and said extremely reverently: "The fat circle on my body is because Weichen's loyalty to His Majesty has increased a few points!" ”

Li Longji pointed at An Lushan and laughed, "Okay, you An Hu'er, you eat and drink nonsense, but you put the responsibility on my head." ”

An Lushan took the opportunity to kneel on his legs and move forward a few steps, took out a celadon vase from his arms, and raised his hands to dedicate it to Li Longji, "This is a secret pill given to Weichen by a Goryeo alchemist, and the minister does not dare to enjoy it, so he will dedicate it to His Majesty." ”

"What kind of secret pill is this?" Li Longji didn't answer.

"Your Majesty, I don't know the specific name, but taking this pill can make ten women not tired!"

"Oh! There is such a good thing. Lux made a look, Gao Lishi hesitated, then reluctantly took it, first opened the cork and looked at it, but the corner of his eye glared at An Lushan fiercely, how can there be a reason in this world that ten maids are not tired, it is nothing more than overdrawing physical strength.

Li Longji poured out two grains from the bottle to the palm of his hand, only to see that the size was like a bean, showing a gorgeous vermilion, the whole body was round and clear, very attractive, he suddenly remembered the record in the wild history, and couldn't help laughing: "Could it be that this is the blood clotting gel recorded in the wild history, which was lost after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?" ”

"I don't know, but I have surrendered two grains, and it does have this effect, but the things of Goryeo must be identified by the imperial doctor first."

Li Longji nodded, "Hu Er's words are reasonable, and it is a beautiful thing that the imperial doctor can detect the formula." He accepted the porcelain vase, and asked An Lushan with a smile: "I heard that you want to ask the lord of Rongyi as your daughter-in-law, but I don't know if Li Fan Ke has agreed." ”

An Lushan's face became solemn, and he said categorically: "The minister has not officially raised this matter to His Royal Highness King Qi, and the minister thinks that if he does not get the emperor's permission first, this matter must not be mentioned!" ”

An Lushan and 'bang!' Bang! Kowtowed, the minister's request to see His Majesty today is actually selfish, and the minister does not dare to hide it.

Li Longji stared at An Lushan's fat face, and asked quietly, "What selfishness?" Tell me about it! ”

"Youzhou is a barren and bitter cold place, and to defend Xi and Khitan, the minister will take the way of building a village, with hundreds of military households as a village, their families and children are moved to one place, in order to protect the safety of their families, the soldiers can only be more vigilant, desperately resisted in case of attack, but this also makes the life of the military family more difficult, especially in winter, there is a danger of running out of food, so the minister has to allocate a large part of the local income every year to help them, and the local income is mainly based on the sale of official salt and salt tax, after the implementation of the new salt law, local income has decreased sharply, The minister was no longer able to help these poor military households, and the minister's selfish intention was to ask His Majesty to suspend the implementation of the new salt law in Youzhou. ”

An Lushan's blunt words won Li Longji's secret praise, the Hu people are not better at hypocrisy than the Han people, they don't have much scheming, they are all honest and frank people, just look at the Wang Zhonghei's repeated words that the abolition is too much to shake the national body, and he looks impassioned for the country and the people, but in fact? Isn't he selfish? He grew up with Tai since he was a child, and said that he only had the country and society in his heart, how could this be!

Although he praised An Lushan, but Li

I don't want to agree to An Lushan about this, after all, he also knows that the implementation of the new salt law is not easy to get on the right track, it is far from stable, and once it opens its mouth somewhere, it is very likely to collapse completely.

He pondered for a moment and said to An Lushan: "Aiqing has worked tirelessly for me to defend the border, and I have made great contributions, and this is the first time I have heard of this fortification defense method, since there is a necessary expenditure, why don't you open it to the imperial court?" The court has no money, and the money still has to be spent, so Aiqing wrote a fold when he went back, and listed the annual expenses, and I would instruct the military department and the household department to discuss this matter, in short, it would not make Aiqing embarrassed. ”

An Lushan stayed for a long time before he secretly sighed, Li Longji is really cunning and cunning, and he doesn't give himself the slightest opportunity to take advantage of, since he has tested Li Longji's attitude, he can't take the initiative to mention this matter of the Hedong Jiedu envoy, so as not to be suspicious of him.

"Your Majesty can worry about those poor military households, and the ministers thank Your Majesty for your kindness for them."

After speaking, An Lushan solemnly kowtowed to Li Longji twice, and said: "The minister does not dare to disturb His Majesty's rest, so he will retire!" ”

Li Longji saw that his face was a little depressed, and he couldn't bear to let him down too much, so he smiled slightly and said, "Since you have come to Chang'an, let's handle the marriage for your son!" I have approved the matter of marrying the lord of Rongyi, and in the future, Aiqingzhi can stay in Chang'an as an official, and I will make good use of him. ”

An Lushan looked ecstatic, he couldn't help but weep and said: "The minister deeply feels the grace of the saint and has nothing to repay, and will fight to the death for His Majesty!" ”

.

An Lushan slowly withdrew from the Qinzheng Palace, and let out a long breath, the sky was gray, there was no sunlight, and it was full of clouds, just like his mood at this time, neither of the two goals was achieved, which made him extremely depressed.

"This Xingqing Palace is complicated, let the miscellaneous family take An Dashuai out!" As soon as An Lushan turned around, he saw that it was Yu Chaoen, the great eunuch beside Li Longji, so he thanked him: "Thank you Father-in-law Yu!" ”

"An Dashuai doesn't have to be polite, I often hear Liu Luogu say that Dashuai's hundreds of thousands of sons and daughters are all convinced by Dashuai, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation."

Liu Luogu is An Lushan's eyeliner in Chang'an, helping him to deal with the powerful and inform the court, and Yu Chao's meaning is to reveal to An Lushan that he has received the benefits of Liu Luogu, how can An Lushan not understand.

He was just about to say a few polite words, when he suddenly felt that his hand was stuffed into a note, and then he looked at Yu Chaoen, his attitude was humble, but a meaningful smile flashed in his eyes.

An Lushan suddenly understood, took two steps forward, looked back and nodded and smiled: "I know the way here, thank you for your advice!" ”

After leaving Xingqing Palace, An Lushan boarded the carriage and impatiently opened the note, on which there were only two scribbled handwriting: 'Guifei! ’

He suddenly realized that this was Yu Chaoen hinting that he was taking Yang Guifei's route, he closed his eyes and secretly thought about it, he naturally couldn't see Yang Guifei, but he could achieve his goal through her family, it is said that several of her sisters have entered Beijing, this is a road; There is also Jingzhao Yin Yang Guozhong, who was favored because of the concubine, thinking of Yang Guozhong, An Lushan couldn't help but think of Li Cong, the king of Qing, who had hinted in his letter that Yang Guozhong was his person.

An Lushan couldn't help but smile proudly, "I can get to know this Uncle Yang through King Qing!" ’

.

After An Lushan left, Li Longji took a porcelain bottle and looked at the pills inside, and smiled at Gao Lishi: "This An Hu'er is also interesting, and he actually gave me a **, although it is not very decent, but it is also warm-hearted." ”

Gao Lishi gave him a deep salute and persuaded: "Your Majesty, this national wild medicine should be taken most carefully, and it must be taken only if the imperial doctor has verified that it is beneficial and harmless to the body." ”

"I'm just talking and playing, why do you want to persuade me, don't I understand this after living ten years old?" Although he said this, his eyes still looked at the porcelain vase reluctantly, and with a ruthless heart, he handed it to Gao Lishi, and repeatedly instructed: "Let them test it well, and there will be results tomorrow at the latest, and if there is a slight difference, I want their heads!" ”

Li Longji's mood began to get bad, he casually pulled out a fold, it was Li Qing's impeachment of Yangzhou assassin Li Chengshi's share of stealing official salt, Li Longji suddenly remembered that King Qing had not heard from him, and he did not come to confess his guilt, and he also sent someone to assassinate Li Qing, and others covered for him in vain, such a stupid, conceited, ruthless and unrighteous person still wants to dream of being too much?

Li Longji's face became extremely pale, he picked up the pen and fiercely criticized the word 'chop' on the first page of the fold, threw the fold to Gao Lishi, and said in a stern tone: "Remove Li Chengshi from the post of Yangzhou assassin, and order Dali Temple, Yushitai, and the third division of the Criminal Department to try this case, and anyone who sits on more than 100 pieces of stolen goods will be killed with a cane!" ”
