The next morning, Li Qing'an did not go anywhere, although today is the first day of the Shangyuan holiday, but Li Longji is very likely to summon him, he got up early in the morning, quietly in the house to read, rest, but before dawn, the door suddenly remembered the voice of Steward Luo, "General Li, there are a few villagers at the side gate looking for you, they brought an injured person, it seems to know you." ”

'Wounded man. Li Qingxin was a little strange, their wounded were all in Longyou, could it be that they were from Longyou?

He put down his book and walked briskly to the side door, which was located in an alley, relatively secluded, at this time, several farmers selling vegetables were looking into the door, and on the basket in front of them lay a bloody man, and the female guard Zhang Xiuer was checking his injuries.

"Where are the wounded?"

Li Qing'an walked out quickly, and several villagers hurriedly greeted him, pointing to the people on the basket: "Master Li, it's him, he asked us to send it back here, let us find you." ”

Li Qingan was stunned for a moment, as if he was a literati in a robe, he slowly stepped forward, Zhang Xiu'er hurriedly got up and said: "General, his legs are broken, and the hamstrings of both feet have been broken, it is really unbelievable that he survived such a serious injury." ”

Li Qingan recognized this person, An Lushan's staff was solemn, and he was extremely surprised in his heart, what was going on?

Yan Zhuang slowly opened his eyes and smiled weakly, "General Li! ”

Li Qingan reacted, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers behind him: "Quick! Carry him in and watch out for his leg! ”

At this time, Steward Luo brought a few people under his name to carry a bamboo couch, and everyone carefully carried Yan Zhuang in.

Several villagers were relieved to see that the matter was completed, and left happily with the peiyu that Yan Zhuang gave them, Li Qing'an entered the house, at this time, several female guards cut open Yan Zhuang's middle coat that had been condensed into blood cakes, and were skillfully cleaning his stick wounds, and a personal soldier ran to ask a famous doctor nearby.

Yan Zhuang gritted his teeth and persevered until now, as soon as his heart was relieved, he had passed out, and Li Qingan couldn't know the reason for the matter, so he called two capable soldiers and told them in a low voice: "You go to the vicinity of An Lushan's mansion to inquire, what happened last night, and report it immediately if there is news." ”

Li Qingan saw that Yan Zhuang couldn't wake up for a while, so he instructed a few words and returned to his room, an hour later, he came to see Yan Zhuang again, the doctor had already come, and was diagnosing Yan Zhuang's pulse and prescribing medicine, all the trauma treatment was completed by the female guards, and even the ordinary doctors did not do as well as them.

At this moment, Yan Zhuang was comfortable, sleeping soundly on the couch, and his breathing became even, the doctor smiled bitterly, and said to Li Qing'an: "His pulse is stable, and his surname should be saved, but his hamstring has been broken, and it is estimated that he will not be able to stand up for the rest of his life, hey!" Who did such a ruthless hand. ”

"General!" Suddenly, the voice of the soldier came from the door, and it was the person who inquired about the news who had returned.

Li Qingan walked out of the room quickly and asked, "Did you find any news?" ”

"We heard from the messenger guarding the gate of the fang that more than 100 people from the Yang family came to An Lushan to settle accounts last night, and then An Lushan ordered someone to beat Yan Zhuang again, and threw him out of the fang, and no one was allowed to interrogate."

"What's the reason for that? Did you find out? ”

"Nope!" The soldiers shook their heads and said: "No one dares to approach An Lushan Mansion, only people see Yan Zhuang being beaten from a distance, and they are calling the Yang family." ”

Even if he called the Yang family, how could Yan Zhuang come to him, making Li Qingan puzzled, could it be that Yan Zhuang wanted to take refuge in himself?

Yan Zhuang didn't wake up, Li Qingan had no way to ask, so he had to go back to the room first, and when it was almost noon, he finally received the news from the palace, and a porter hurriedly came to the gate, and shouted from afar: "General, someone is coming to the palace, let you enter the palace immediately!" ”

．．．．．．．．

Today is a holiday, but Li Longji unexpectedly summoned Li Qing'an, that is, for an investigation report urgently sent from Luoyang, did not find any records about Li Qing'an's family, and the household department could not find any records of Li Qing'an's grandfather Li Zengyun and father Li Gui in the archives of the entire Henan Prefecture.

In the side hall of Xingqing Palace, Li Longji took the military registration record of Li Qing'an of the Ministry of War, looked at it over and over again, and the military registration was written very clearly, at the beginning of the fifth year of Tianbao, Li Qing'an joined the army in Fengshu Fort in Sulou, Anxi, and was directly awarded the post of commander because of his proficiency in bows and horses, and was later appreciated by Gao Xianzhi, and was promoted to team leader, brigade commander, and school captain, step by step.

It should be said that Li Qing'an is a typical meritorious promotion, although his tenure is a little shorter, but in the border army that pays more attention to military merit than seniority, this kind of promotion is completely normal, and Li Siye is only in the early years of Tianbao's army.

But the question is where was Li Qing'an five years ago? How could he suddenly run to Sulou Fengshu Fort, this is the key.

Li Longji couldn't help but fall into deep thought, since he wanted to hand over such an important place as Beiting to Li Qing'an, he had to understand his life experience, and he would never let a person of unknown origin hold the power.

At this time, Gao Lishi next to him persuaded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Li Qing'an is a Han Chinese, there is no doubt about this, since he fought for the Tang Dynasty regardless of life and death, the old slave can guarantee that he is loyal to the Tang Dynasty and the emperor." ”

Li Longji waved his hand and smiled: "I don't doubt his loyalty, it doesn't matter if he is a Hu person or a Han person, didn't he say it last night?" I know he is loyal, but I just want to know where he used to be. Why Luoyang has no records of his family, I am very curious. ”

At this time, a report from the eunuch came from the door, "Your Majesty, Li Qing'an has arrived, and I will wait to see you outside the palace." ”

"Announce his audience!"

"Your Majesty has a decree to announce Li Qing'an's visit."

．．．．．．．

"Your Majesty has a decree to announce Li Qing'an's visit."

In a moment, Li Qing'an came to the side hall under the guidance of two eunuchs, Li Qing'an entered Li Longji's dormitory for the first time, compared with the Datong Palace, it is more magnificent here, thirty-six huge night pearls are hung on the top of the hall, exuding a faint clear light, making the depths of the originally dim hall become gloomy, and there is a fairyland-like feeling.

Li Qingan raised his head and stared at the thirty-six night pearls the size of grapefruit for a long time, he was very strange in his heart, where did these beads go in the future?

"General Li, please come in! Your Majesty is waiting for you. When a eunuch saw that he was distracted, he reminded him.

Li Qingan hurriedly gathered his mind and walked quickly into the side hall, which was actually a huge room, separated by a high curtain, which was Li Longji's living room in the harem, and if there was an emergency, he would also meet the minister here.

Li Qing'an saw that Li Longji was dressed in ordinary clothes and sitting on the soft couch, he hurriedly stepped forward and gave a military salute, "Minister Li Qing'an sees Your Majesty!" ”

"Huh! Our Lee poet is here. ”

Li Qing'an's demeanor of dancing swords and bards in Wei Mansion last night spread all over Chang'an City in one morning, and Li Longji had just heard about it.

"Your Majesty, the minister can't afford the word 'poet'."

"Why, you're so well written! Poor stone castle city bones, like a person in a spring boudoir dream, very meaningful, ordinary poets can't write it! ”

Li Qingan smiled a little ashamedly and said: "Last night, the minister was drunk, and he didn't want to lose face, so he casually changed the poems and music he heard before, and it became his own. ”

"Good!"

Li Longji smiled slightly and said: "You are very honest, this is more popular with me than you can write poems, and you have changed it very well, but the king's world affairs are more meaningful than the world's affairs in your chest, in fact, I also feel a little strange, your last sentence is, poor white happens, this should be the tone of the old general, I guessed that it may not have been written by you, but it was you who said it, which made me feel gratified." ”

Speaking of this, Li Longji asked curiously: "But this poem and Yuefu are both very well written, I have never heard of it before, where did you hear it?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, this is what the minister read to his grandfather in Broken Leaves when he was young, and as for who wrote it, the minister doesn't know."

Li Longji's face became solemn, and he asked slowly, "General Li, aren't you from Luoyang?" Why did you run to Broken Leaf again? ”

Li Qing'an hurriedly bowed down and said: "Chen's ancestral hometown Luoyang, at the end of the Sui Dynasty to avoid war, Chen's great-great-grandfather took the whole family to move to the broken leaves, where to reproduce, it has been a hundred years, the ancestors of the ministers are to the Tang Dynasty, all the time nostalgic hometown, the minister also came to Luoyang with his grandfather to live in Luoyang for a few years when he was a child, and later went to the Great Food, Persia and other countries to travel, three years ago, the minister's grandfather died of illness in the broken leaf, and when he was dying, he instructed the minister to return to the Tang Dynasty no matter what, and the minister inherited his grandfather's will, and came to Anxi to serve in the army. ”

Li Longji played with a paperweight, pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you been to Dashi and Persia?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has not only been to Dashi, but also to the country further west."

"Tell me, what is the country to the west of the Great Eclipse?"

Li Qing'an said with a smile: "Your Majesty, to the west of the Great Eclipse is a huge inland sea, called the Mediterranean Sea, and directly north of the Great Eclipse is another powerful empire, called the Byzantine Empire, which is the old enemy of the Great Eclipse, that is, the Great Qin State, the southern part of the Mediterranean Sea stretches for thousands of miles, and it is still the territory of the Great Eclipse, but to the north of the Mediterranean Sea are countless small countries, what the Kingdom of the Franks, the Kingdom of Italy, and the Spanish Marque, the minister has only heard of it, and has not been there." ”

"General Li said that I want to go and see it."

Li Longji finally showed a smile on his face, he could hear that Li Qingan was not lying, which made him feel comfortable, on the contrary, if Li Qingan insisted that he was from Luoyang, he would be angry.

"It turns out that General Li is a Han from Broken Leaves, no wonder he will serve in the army at Sulou Fengshu Fort, in fact, even if you are a Hu person, I won't care too much, Gao Xianzhi is a Goguryeo person, An Lushan is a Lingxi Sogdian, Ge Shuhan is a Turk Shi person, An Sishun is a Turkic person, I don't care, as long as you are loyal to the Tang Dynasty and loyal to me, no matter Hu Han and I, I will be equally important, but what I care about is whether you are honest and have you deceived me? I might as well tell you the truth, if you still insist that you are from Luoyang, then I will dismiss you on the spot and punish you for the crime of bullying the king, but you have behaved very well, not only frankly admitting that the poem was not written by you, but also admitting that you are a Han from Broken Leaves, which is very good, and in recognition of your honesty and openness, I will give you a special gift. ”

He turned back to Gao Lishi and said, "I agree to your plan, and let Bian Lingcheng concurrently serve as the supervisor of the North Court." ”

He smiled at Li Qing'an again: "If you behave well and satisfy me, maybe I will remove your prison army." ”

Li Qingxin was relieved, this level was finally passed, but just in case, he had to find a way to arrange the broken leaves again.

Li Qingan hurriedly gave a deep salute, "The minister thanks Your Majesty for your trust, and the minister will never let Your Majesty down." ”

At this moment, the voice of the eunuch came from the door, "Your Majesty, Niangniang and the third lady are here." ”

As soon as the words fell, only to hear the sound of the ring, Yang Yuhuan and Yang Huahua walked into the side hall like a gust of wind, and a strange fragrance came to their faces.

"San Lang, the concubine has something to discuss with you."

Yang Yuhuan suddenly saw Li Qing'an, she quickly stopped, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "San Lang, I didn't know that you were meeting the foreign minister. ”

Later, Yang Huahua quietly handed Li Qingan an an autumn wave, but Li Qingan pretended not to see it, Yang Huahua couldn't help biting her teeth, and secretly scolded in her heart: "This guy has no conscience." ’

Li Longji waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, General Li is actually not an outsider, he is the lady's pot thrower, didn't the lady still be a matchmaker for him yesterday?" ”

Yang Yuhuan glanced at Li Qing'an, pursed his lips and smiled: "Don't mention the matchmaker's business, last night General Qing'an drew his sword in anger for Mingyue, and now no one in Chang'an knows?" San Lang, when will you draw your sword for me!"

"Huh! I'm going to be tonight...."

Li Longji almost lost his words, he hurriedly coughed dryly and laughed: "By the way, why is the lady in a hurry to find me?" ”

Yang Yuhuan pulled Yang Huahua and said with great interest: "The third sister wholeheartedly persuaded me to go to Zhuque Street tonight to watch the lanterns, and I also want to reminisce about the Shangyuan night of the hour." ”

She pleaded, "San Lang, just promise me!" Let me go, okay? ”

Gao Lishi on the side hurriedly stopped: "As a noble concubine, the head of the six palaces, how can Niangniang watch the lanterns with the common people, it is not as good as the old slave to let people put more lanterns in the palace, it is just as good-looking." ”

"That's boring!"

Yang Huahua pouted, and encouraged on the side: "Looking at the lanterns is to look at the people and the lights, the picture is the liveliness, the palace is deserted, where can it be compared with the outside, my good brother-in-law, you just promise the fourth sister!" ”

Yang Huahua said 'my good brother-in-law', her voice was delicate and shy, and Li Longji's heart trembled when he heard it, and he smiled: "Okay! I will enjoy the lanterns tonight and enjoy the people together. ”

"How can Your Majesty ....."

Without waiting for Gao Lishi to finish speaking, Li Longji interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and said decisively: "I don't do this often, so it's okay to do it occasionally, since the lady has this wish, of course I have to meet it." ”

Yang Yuhuan slapped his face with joy, Gao Lishi had to shake his head and sigh, the saint is getting more and more ridiculous, and he actually wants to watch the lantern in a micro-service, hey! He's having fun, but it's himself who has a headache!

At this time, Li Longji smiled at Li Qingan again: "Why don't General Qing'an go with us to watch the lanterns!" ”

Li Qingan hurriedly apologized and said, "Your Majesty, the minister wants to ask someone else to watch the lanterns tonight." ”

"Saburo is really confused."

Yang Yuhuan blinked and said with a smile: "General Qing'an drew his sword last night, of course he will take advantage of the victory tonight, and San Lang will also do bad things." ”

Li Longji suddenly realized, he patted his head and laughed, "That's right, I'm confused." ”

Yang Huahua next to her snorted a little unhappily, and said in a lengthened voice: "General Li, last time you won a big victory with an arrow in my mansion, I kindly gave you a black bow as a reward, I heard that it was destroyed by you?" ”

Li Qingan knew that Yang Huahua was playing on the topic, this famous Mrs. Qiu Guo in history, he still had a little feeling for her at the beginning, but as he slowly understood, he found that this woman's possessiveness was too strong, and whatever she liked, she would definitely try to take it for herself, even including men, her romance, Li Qingan had also heard of it, of course, who she liked was her freedom, but he didn't like this kind of woman.

Li Qingan clenched his fists and said apologetically: "Madam, I'm really sorry, it's difficult to save in the chaos, not only the bow was destroyed, but my saber was also lost in the melee." ”

"Third sister, don't be so stingy! It is a miracle that the Battle of Chiling survived. ”

Li Longji sighed slightly, and then said to Li Qing'an: "I originally wanted to reward you with a good bow and a famous knife in the main hall yesterday, but I forgot for a while, and I will give it to you when I summon you today." ”

He turned around and ordered, "Come, bring me the Flame Bow and the Dragon Sword!" ”
