Chapter 128: Why bother in the first place
The world says that An Lushan has a rebellious heart, but who is born with a rebellious backbone, and he is not forced by the situation.
An Lushan built Xiongwu City in the north of Fanyang, and the imperial court did not know it, but some people attacked themselves with this, insisting that the defense of border troubles was false, and the plot was true, and there were a large number of troops living in the city, hoarding grain, grass and horses, and creating weapons for rebellion.
An Lushan felt that he was more wronged than Dou E, Li Linfu was obviously unwilling to enter the court as a border general, and An Lushan was not the only one with tens of thousands of generals in the Tang Frontier, and the national policy of the Tang Dynasty was heavy on the outside and light on the inside, so how could he say that he had the intention of rebelling. In order to show that he had no intention of rebelling, An Lushan stayed in the capital to enjoy happiness after buying land and building mansions in the capital to prepare for Zhishi.
Not only that, An Lushan also left his son An Qingzong in the capital, obviously as an official and as a hostage, doesn't this show that he has no objection?
An Lushan has an indescribable sense of gratitude to Tang Xuanzong, and today's status and authority are all due to Tang Xuanzong, allowing him to create Tang Xuanzong's anti-...... An Lushan really hadn't thought about it before.
Supporting the army and respecting oneself is just a policy for border generals to protect themselves, and An Lushan is not exempt from vulgarity, how can he say that he wants to rebel?
For Yang Guozhong's step-by-step pressing, An Lushan felt a trace of panic, the lie was told a thousand times and it came true, he was far away in Fanyang, Yang Guozhong's sons and ministers kept making small reports, sooner or later, one day Tang Xuanzong would no longer trust him, and at that time, even if he didn't want to, he wouldn't be able to.
"An Shuai, Luquan County is ahead, it's getting late, do you want to go into the city to rest?"
An Lushan's thoughts were interrupted by the guards outside the car, and he moved his fat body, and his heavy eyelids picked up: "Enter the city!" ”
Although there are many displaced people outside the city, it does not affect the increasingly strong festive atmosphere in the county. Feng Wannian has returned to the back hall early and changed the cup with the concubine, the official's wife who is an official in a different place either stays in the capital or returns to her hometown, how can she not be accompanied by a beautiful woman by her side after a long night of unintentional sleep. It has long become a good story for officials to be officials in other places to have one or two beautiful concubines around them, and it is impossible to avoid vulgarity for 10,000 years.
Li Huang didn't want to see him, Feng Wannian was well versed in the unspoken rules of officialdom, and sooner or later he went to Zhen Qian's mansion to greet him with false affection, and sent a bunch of local specialties in the hope that this plague god would get out of the way as soon as possible.
The royal family and officials are most likely to be suspicious of the emperor, and if the political circles are different, it is inevitable that they will be suppressed.
Suddenly, a servant ran in in a panic, panting and sweating profusely, and slurred his speech: "Ann...... An Shuai, enter the ...... It's in town! ”
Feng Wannian's face was a little unbearable, and his royal subordinates were not strict, and these servants shouted one by one: "Get out!" ”
The official raised his head and saw Feng Wannian's concubine dressed in a gauze dress, and the leather cup was touching Feng Wannian's face, he was stunned for a moment, his face was red, and he sprayed the wine in his mouth on Feng Wannian's face.
Feng Wannian was about to get angry, but he suddenly realized something, and he didn't care about scolding the officials and concubines: "What did you just say, who came?" ”
"An Shuai...... Yuan Ri saw the emperor passing by Luquan County, and was about to stay at the official post, and the other three masters had already arrived at the official post ....... ”
Feng Wannian can no longer be calm, An Lushan and Li Huang are different, Li Huang is just an idle king, no matter how long his hand is, he can't reach out to the officials, even if he has any complaints about himself, it will not affect his career. An Lushan is different, that is the celebrity in front of Tang Xuanzong, and he is his top boss, but his career is pinched in An Lushan's hands, can he not make Feng Wannian nervous?
"Sir, the clothes ...... Wear it upside down! ”
In a hurry, Feng Wannian rushed out of the door before he had time to put on his official uniform, and the concubine chased him out from behind, regardless of the leakage of the spring.
"Quick...... What about horse-drawn carriages? Forget it, let's ride a horseback! ”
Feng Wannian hurried to the door of the official post, saw that the official post had been surrounded by officers and soldiers, and then saw that the county Sanzuo was standing at the door and trembled: "An Shuai can be in the official post!" ”
The county Cheng said with a bitter face: "You and I are one step late, An Shuai arrived at the official post and heard that Li Tingshi was also in the city, so he went to Zhen Qian's mansion, I didn't know what to do, so I had to wait for the Ming Mansion again?" ”
"Went to Zhen Qian's mansion?"
Feng Wannian felt bitter in his heart, a plague god has not been sent away, and another great god has come, and the two have gathered together, what can I do?
Li Huangqinggui is also the prince of the Tang Dynasty, An Lushangui is the envoy of the Three Towns Festival, and he wears many hats, to put it bluntly, he is a watchdog of Tang Xuanzong, helping the Tang Dynasty resist foreign fans, how can the dog be on an equal footing with the owner?
It's no wonder that the county Sanzo doesn't know how to be good! If An Lushan just paid a courtesy visit, it would be okay for the four of Feng Wannian to stand in the cold wind and wait for a while, in case the two of them had a good conversation, wouldn't it be rude for them to be here. It's not to go, it's not to go, the four of you, you look at me, I'll look at you, and finally look at Feng Wannian, waiting for him to come up with an idea!
"That's it! We will go to Zhen Qian's mansion now to ask for an ...... handsome", Feng Wannian did not say the rest of the words, his own people do not want to see Li Huang, in case Li Huang gets in the way, the unlucky one is not Feng Wannian alone anyway.
The three of them sighed, knowing that they regretted it today and that it was too late to regret it now.
As soon as An Lushan arrived at the official post of Luquan County, he heard that Li Huang was also in the city, and An Lushan, an idle king, would not take it seriously, but after thinking about it, it was inevitable that he would have a conflict with Yang Guozhong when he entered Beijing this time, and it was not bad to have one more person to help him speak.
Of course, An Lushan will not put the treasure on Li Huang, but has other plans, today is different from the past, Yang Guozhong has just taken power, and the power has not yet been cultivated, especially the contradiction between the crown prince Li Heng and Yang Guozhong, it is strange to say, when the prime minister of the court, there is no one who has eyebrows with Li Heng, An Lushan knows that this is Tang Xuanzong's intention, deliberately suppressing Li Heng.
Everyone in the world thought that Li Heng's position as the crown prince was in jeopardy, but only An Lushan knew in his heart that although Tang Xuanzong suppressed Li Heng, he always stopped at the point and did not mean to depose Li Heng. However, in order to prevent the palace coups that have often occurred since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, he told Li Heng to do a good job as the crown prince and not to think crankily and conspire to force the palace.
If he can win the support of Li Heng and the royal family, An Lushan naturally does not have to worry about Yang Guozhong's slander, the problem is that Li Heng's attitude is not friendly, and directly dealing with Li Heng can easily arouse the suspicion of Tang Xuanzong, so he can only save the country.
Tang Xuanzong intends to marry An Lushan, and is choosing for An Lushan's son Twilight, An Lushan feels that Li Huang's daughter Jinyuan County Lord is good, she is good-looking, gentle and elegant, and she is a good candidate.
