Of course, Wang Yuan didn't want to go back to Beijing to expose An Lushan's face, he had been seriously considering this issue in the past few days. This time he escaped death and returned to the capital, and it stands to reason that An Lushan's collusion with the Xi people and the provision of weapons, equipment, war horses and other materials should be dragged out of the market, so as to completely expose An Lushan's wolf ambitions.

This thing sounded very pleasant and easy to do, but after thinking about it deeply, Wang Yuan suddenly found that he did not have any direct evidence in this regard except for oral statements. And even if it was his own oral account, he actually learned it from Gongsun Lan's mouth, and he was not even an eyewitness. In Wang Yuan's view, Gongsun Lan's words are of course true, but in the eyes of others, they are not convincing. And it is impossible for Gongsun Lan, the only witness, to testify publicly, and it is impossible for Gongsun Lan to expose her identity, which will cause endless trouble. The only one who can testify in her place is herself, but unfortunately she is not even an eyewitness.

What he can prove is nothing more than all the attacks he suffered after discovering this matter, and this attack has nothing to do with Fan Yang's soldiers and horses. There is really no loophole in the means of borrowing the hands of the Xi people to attack themselves, and if the mouth is successful, it will naturally be over. If it didn't succeed, it didn't matter about An Lushan, he could push it clean, because Fan Yang's soldiers and horses did not participate in the attack. However, it is still difficult to have strong evidence to prove that he colluded with the Xi people.

As for the tracking of Fan Yang's soldiers and horses, the rhetoric is actually very simple, just saying that when he learned that the envoy was attacked, Fan Yang's soldiers and horses came to protect him and he could shirk it. As for the fact that the soldiers and horses of Huai'an County outside the Boulder Pass had attacked their subordinates for a morning, there are many ways to excuse them, either they mistakenly think they are Turks, or they simply refuse to admit it.

And another thing that Wang Yuan has been thinking about is the incident that he and Gongsun Lan were found on the way to Yunzhou. When he and Gongsun Lan broke away from the pursuit in the mountains, the news would definitely be reported to An Lushan immediately. An Lushan, who learned of this, will definitely make all preparations after he escapes back to Chang'an safely. He will definitely plan everything, just wait for him to be exposed when he returns to Beijing, and then he will be refuted one by one, until he bites back on false accusations.

This is by no means conjecture, Wang Yuan himself is a good conspirator, and Yang Shenjin's death is a conspiracy planned by Wang Yuan, so Wang Yuan considers this matter from the perspective of a conspirator, and considers this matter from An Lushan's standpoint, Wang Yuan alone can come up with several ways to deal with this matter and bite back.

Therefore, Wang Yuancai decided not to make a big noise about this matter after returning to Beijing, but to look at the situation first and then make the right choice. In Wang Yuan's opinion, if he is not careful after returning to Chang'an, it is even more dangerous than in Fanyang County. Because he can still escape in Fanyang, but he doesn't even have a chance to escape in the capital. That's why Wang Yuan cautiously asked the surviving dozen or so people under him to stop. Although it is a bit disappointing and infuriating, it is also a last resort to survive.

The army rested until the afternoon, and immediately after lunch, it drove back to Yunzhou in triumph, and it was nearly two o'clock when it arrived in Yunzhou. The news of the army's victory over the Turks had already arrived in the city of Yunzhou in the afternoon, and although it was already the second watch, Wang Zhonghe, the envoy of Shuofang Jiedu, led the officials and generals in the city to welcome the triumphant army outside the lantern-filled north city gate.

In a warm atmosphere, the army was greeted into the city with joy, and then Wang Zhongsi ordered to reward the soldiers, killing pigs and sheep in the Chinese military camp and setting up hundreds of banquets to reward the soldiers. Celebrate one of the biggest victories over the Turks in almost two years.

Li Guangbi, Wang Yuan, Guo Ziyi and other generals who participated in the war were specially invited by Wang Zhongsi to participate in the celebration banquet in the hall of the Yunzhou Mansion. Wang Zhongsi made an impassioned speech of encouragement, saying that he would immediately report the news of the victory of Jushi Pass to the imperial court, and all the soldiers who participated in the battle would be rewarded for their merits and deeds. Then the banquet began, and the generals were still orderly at first, but as the liquor entered their stomachs, they all drank happily regardless of their image, and made a noisy and noisy mess.

Wang Yuan didn't want to go crazy with these generals who were soldiers at the wine table. Besides, his body was also a little tired, and he wanted to go back to rest, so he pulled Guo Ziyi and asked him to help him go and help him communicate with Wang Zhongsi and Li Guangbi, who were in front of the red-eared red and red generals to make an order, and he got up and left the table.

As soon as he walked out of the hall door, he heard Wang Zhongsi's voice behind him: "Wang Qin, please stay." ”

Wang Yuan stopped and turned to look, but saw Wang Zhongsi walking down the steps of the hall with a glass of wine in his hand, and Li Guangbi followed beside him.

Wang Yuan bowed, and Wang Zhongsi said with a smile: "Why is Wang Qin's envoy leaving?" I and the soldiers are drinking happily, Xu is snubbing Wang Qin's envoy, I'm really sorry. ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Wang Jiedu said that, I was just a little sleepy, and I didn't want to disturb everyone's interest, so I asked General Guo to pass on a message." Wang Jiedu General Li, the two of them went to accompany the generals to drink. ”

Wang Zhongsi shook his head and said, "What are these words?" This battle outside the Boulder Pass has a great credit from Wang Qin's envoy. I've heard Guangbi talk about the cause and effect, if you hadn't provoked Guangbi to attack decisively, how could there be this big victory? I also heard that Wang Qin's envoy took the initiative to ask for a charge forward, and the courage on the battlefield was incomparable, and the morale of the soldiers who was inspired was high, and I admired it very much. Wang Qin is an all-round civil and military talent, and I sincerely admire it. ”

Wang Yuan laughed and said: "Wang Jiedu has tormented me, and I still want to find an opportunity to ask Wang Jiedu for this matter." Before the war, I said a lot of things that I shouldn't have said, which caused a very bad impact, and I hope that General Wang Jiedu Li will forgive me for my abruptness. I don't dare to take the credit, it is all the two commanders of the army, the Shuo Fang army is brave and fearless, and the soldiers have worked hard to achieve this great victory. ”

Wang Zhongsi laughed and said, "You are really good at talking, I am impressed by you." At that time, how could you stir up the law without saying some radical words? Guangbi told me that he really couldn't make up his mind in that situation, and if it weren't for your words, he wouldn't have won this battle. You must be humble, and your name will be in the book of merit. ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "There are a lot of adults, and Wang Jiedu and General Li are all frank people. ”

Wang Zhongsi nodded and said, "I heard that almost all of your family members have suffered casualties, and I also deeply regret it. But fortunately, Liu Xiaogongzi is safe, and your family is also safe, this is the best ending. In that case, no one will be able to get to the rescue in time, and I hope you understand that. ”

Wang Yuan said: "I understand, General Wang Jiedu Li doesn't have to mind, I will do a good job of appeasing and appeasing after I return to Beijing." ”

"Good." Wang Zhongsi nodded and said, "I don't know when Wang Qin's envoy will return to Beijing?" ”

Wang Yuan said: "I plan to take a day off tomorrow and let a few injured subordinates treat their injuries in Yunzhou City and stabilize their injuries. He left early the next morning and returned to Beijing. At that time, I am afraid that I will have to trouble Wang Jiedu to send some people to escort the ride. ”

Wang Zhongsi said with a smile: "The day after tomorrow, I will also go to the capital to personally report the victory of Jushi Pass, just on the same road, isn't it just right?" ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "That's better, I just hope that Wang Jiedu is not because of himself and goes to Beijing to report the schedule." ”

Wang Zhongsi waved his hand and said: "Don't delay, don't delay, tomorrow one day to count the casualties and results, count the list of meritorious people, and the day after tomorrow just go to the capital, there will be no delay at all." I wanted to have a glass of wine and talk with Wang Qin's envoy after the banquet, but you see my subordinate generals, as soon as they drink the wine, they make a lot of noise, and on today's happy day, I don't want to spoil the scenery, but I don't have the opportunity to toast you with a glass of wine. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "I should have toasted you, it's my rudeness." ”

Wang Zhongsi raised the wine glass in his hand and said: "I won't force the envoy to stay even if he is tired, you and I have drunk this bar, no matter who respects whom." ”

Li Guangbi handed over a glass of wine in his hand, Wang Yuan thanked him and took it, touched Wang Zhongsi lightly, and leaned his neck dry.

Wang Zhongsi smiled and handed the wine glass to the people around him, and arched his hand: "Don't leave the envoy, tomorrow I will be busy with writing statistics and other affairs, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see you." However, we have a few days to go back to Beijing on the same road, so let's talk deeper. I'd love to make friends with you. ”

Wang Yuan arched his hand and smiled: "It's not an honor." Farewell. ”

Wang Zhongsi and Li Guangbi were sent to the door, and after seeing Wang Yuan leave under the protection of his own soldiers, they turned around and entered the courtyard to stand still and talk quietly.

"Dashuai, do you want to go to the capital in person? Leave it to someone else to do it, and you can just write it and bring it with you. Li Guangbi said.

Wang Zhongsi said: "Guangbi, after this Wang Yuan returns to Beijing, I am afraid that there will be waves in the court, I need to meet the prince and listen to the prince's opinion." ”

"Do you mean, Wang Yuan is talking about things in Fanyang?"

"Exactly. He behaved very strangely when he came to ask for help that day, and I asked him why he didn't ask for help from Fan Yang's soldiers and horses nearby. At that time, his answer was that it was better not to say some things, and you heard all of that. Some of An Lushan's behaviors seem to have been derailed, and this Wang Yuan must have caught him something, so his escape to Yunzhou was actually to escape An Lushan's territory. Think about it, of course this person will not give up after returning to the capital, if he shakes out the matter of An Lushan, won't there be a major earthquake in the court? ”

Li Guangbi said: "This is understandable, what do you think An Lushan will do this time?" What will be the attitude of the imperial court? ”

"That depends on what Wang Yuan knows. If this Wang Yuan does not have real evidence, I am afraid that An Lushan will not be able to do it, but it will backfire. In short, I went to the capital to prepare for both. If An Lushan's handle is really revealed, I will naturally not give up this opportunity. An Lushan is by no means a good person, he has a collusion with Li Linfu, and he is not good to the prince, so if he has the opportunity, he naturally wants to get rid of him. But if I don't have the chance, I won't rush forward. ”

"What the marshal said is very true. Forgive me for talking too much, if this Wang Yuan has no real evidence in his hands, he will definitely be falsely accused by An Lushan. Will you speak for him? The marshal said that he had a share of the credit for this battle, didn't he mix us with this Wang Yuan. Will it be considered a ...... then?"

"I understand what you mean, Wang Yuan's credit is dispensable, if he has An Lushan's real evidence, then this credit will be given to him. If he doesn't have real credentials, his name won't be on our report, you know? ”

"Humble duty understands." Li Guangbi bowed.

"Let's go, the brothers are having a good time, let's go in and have a few more drinks, I haven't been so happy for a long time." Wang Zhongsi flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked into the hall.
