The person who came was Li Shizhi, the former prime minister, and now the haggard old man.

His position as the crown prince and young master was also dismissed, and he was ordered to be the Yichun Taishou, and although Li Xiao was considered "crazy", he did not end well, so he was dismissed from the post of Shaoqing and transferred to Jili Prefecture to join the army.

Yes, it was the Jili Prefecture Recorder who joined the army, and the position that had just been vacated because of Ye Chang's promotion.

Everyone knows that this is an extremely severe punishment, just because Li Xiao's various illegal acts over the years have been brought out by an ancient bone, and the fake madness has also been exposed.

Ye Chang got off the horse and bowed to Li Shizhi: "I've seen Li Gong." ”

Li Shi's heart was full of emotion, looking at Ye Chang's heroic appearance, he let out a long sigh: "I regret not listening to the words of the guests at the beginning, and never reusing Ye Sima"

"It is also common for the talent of Chang Mushing to not enter the eyes of Li Gong." Ye Chang smiled slightly.

What's the point of saying such things at this time? He still maintains some respect for Li Shizhi, after all, he has also given him a lot of convenience, although he later parted ways, but it has not yet reached the point of speaking ill of him.

But at the same time, he also looked down on Li Shizhi a little, he was rude, lacked practical talent, knew people, and did not make good use of people, and most importantly, he couldn't control the people around him, which was a disaster.

"Ye Sima, are you going back to Liaodong today?" Li Shizhi said again.

Li Shizhi looked at Ye Chang with a little complicated feelings, the young man in front of him was nearly twenty years younger than his son, but he had the ability to turn over the river and the sea, and almost half of the original good situation was demolished by this young man.

If the emperor is only clear and Wang Zhonghei is still in his throne......

If Wei Jian still has to be reused......

It is useless to regret that you did not have the ability to face him squarely at the beginning, and then you did not erase him in time, which led to this fiasco on your side, and you cannot make the same mistake in the future.

Thinking of this, Li Shizhi took a breath, and then bowed down suddenly.

He was over sixty years old, and he trembled as an old man, but he bowed down in front of Ye Chang

"Ye Sima, the dog is guilty, he shouldn't offend Ye Sima, and I also ask Ye Sima to read the love of the Duke back then, and to remember that these old people also have some care, leaving the dog a life, so that when the old man dies, someone will hold the pot for ......filial piety."

Li Shizhi's voice trembled, he hung his head, and he mourned.

Someone immediately helped him up, and when he looked up, he didn't see Ye Chang.

The moment he bowed, Ye Chang had already avoided it. Ye Chang has not been arrogant to this point to accept the great worship of a former prime minister.

At the same time, he was a little annoyed in his heart: Li Shizhi's move was to roast him on the fire

If he doesn't agree, a reputation for being mean and unkind will be indispensable, even if he agrees, forcing Li Shizhi to this point, what will happen to the rumors outside, and what will happen to Li Longji after he knows the Tao

Ye Chang used his own heart to save Li Longji's belly, if he was the emperor, he would definitely be furious when he learned about this. It is one thing to be angry with Li Shizhi without a minister's body, and at the same time, he will also be angry at Ye Chang's arrogance

Therefore, although in front of him was an old father's last resort in order to save his son, Ye Chang put aside the last sympathy.

"Why did Li Gong say this, Ling Lang is an official of the imperial court, and Li Gong is an important minister of this dynasty, although he was convicted and demoted, he can have the power of life and death, and he is in charge of the Son of Heaven. Could it be that Gong Li thought that the holy judgment was unfair, so he had such words in front of a certain person? If this is the case, a certain person is willing to be the son of heaven, please place Ling Lang again"

Ye Changlang said this, the surroundings were solemn, the corners of Zhang Hao's mouth twitched, and Cen Shen shook his head, with a look of unbearability.

This is not a good word, it is clearly to accuse Li Shizhi of having a grudge against Li Longji because of what happened to his family - in this era, having a grudge against the Son of Heaven is a big crime, and with the current situation of Li Shizhi's family, this crime is enough for the Son of Heaven to give him a glass of wine.

Li Shizhi's face suddenly turned miserable, this was his most reluctant counterattack, in order to make Ye Chang have scruples and not dare to kill Li Xiao in Liaodong. He has been rude all his life, and Lin Lao finally came up with a plan to hide words in his words, and he didn't want Ye Chang to be cunning, so he not only saw through his plan, but even went further, and turned him into an army.

In this way, he has nothing to say at all.

Ye Chang stared at him, and swallowed the words that came to his mouth, and after all, he didn't say anything to further force the other party.

Li Shizhi consciously took care of Ye Chang, but he never thought about what his care was in exchange, in the past few years, the gift that Ye Chang gave to the prime minister's mansion was definitely not a small number, all kinds of benefits, and he had never forgotten him.

But where Ye Chang needed his help the most, not only did he not lend a hand, but instead despised Ye Chang and connived at his son Li Xiao and a group of Li Xiao's followers to beat and suppress Ye Chang. When Huangfu Weiming embarrassed Ye Chang, he didn't make a judgment, just because Li Linfu's daughter was closer to Ye Chang, so he connived at Huangfu Weiming and others to suppress Ye Chang, and never let Huangfu Weiming ever want to put Ye Chang to death and apologize.

"Ye Chang, you don't want to be proud, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, today you will be rampant, rampant, one day, stay until the prince ......"

Li Xiao over there finally couldn't help but scream, it was he who was crying, and he himself understood that if he went to Liaodong this time and fell into the hands of Ye Chang, there would definitely be no good end, but as a criminal official, his actions were not free, and he couldn't do it if he didn't want to.

Originally, he still pinned his hopes on his father, but he never thought that Ye Chang didn't give Li Shizhi face at all. He couldn't figure out the secret confrontation between Li Shizhi and Ye Chang, but he thought that Ye Chang was going to embarrass him.

"Shut up"

Li Shizhi roared wildly, and Li Xiao realized that he was speechless in a hurry, and his face was as pale as earth.

At this time, on a carriage in the distance, the curtain was gently lowered, and Zhang Pei shook his head and muttered a curse

On that day, he persuaded Li Shizhi to break off, and it was because he did not dispose of Li Xiao's cheating goods in time that he would have the current situation. And just now, Li Xiao almost caused another big disaster

His eyes became calm, and Zhang Pei glanced at the people around him: "Don't let Li Xiao go to Liaodong alive." ”

"Exactly, if he is allowed to live to Liaodong...... I don't know what kind of words will be said," the man next to him screamed.

"Li Shizhi should be interrupted, only let us break it for him. It just so happens that there is Ye Chang, a substitute for the dead, as long as we do a little bit cleaner, no one will suspect us. However, Li Shizhi is no longer useful, and he will rarely mention it in the future. ”

After finishing speaking, Zhang Pei lifted the curtain again and looked out, and then instructed the coachman to drive the carriage away.

As their car entered the city, they saw a guard of honor going out. In addition to the soldiers, there are also many palace maids in this honor guard, Zhang Pei was stunned, and then said with a wry smile: "Today is really lively."

"What's wrong?"

"Concubine Mei, she also set off today and went to Luoyang...... Speaking of it, it is also related to the cultivator, if it weren't for his strength, the saint would have missed the old, how could he have ordered Concubine Mei to go to the Eastern Capital"

The other person was silent, Zhang Pei shook his head, and secretly felt sorry for Concubine Mei in his heart. Concubine Mei is the concubine who entered the palace after the death of Concubine Wu Hui, and it is rumored that Gao Lishi personally went to Fujian to select, which is of course nonsense, Gao Lishi is the big eunuch in the palace, how can he leave the palace easily, but Fujian Gongxuan girl is full of palaces, Gao Lishi found her in the group of women, and then sent it to Li Longji.

She was sixteen years old when she entered the palace, and now she is less than eight years old, and when it comes to age, she is younger than Yang Yuhuan. Perhaps it was for this reason that Yang Yuhuan did not allow her to continue to stay in Chang'an.

At the age of twenty-three or four, he will spend the rest of his life in the cold palace, and Zhang Pei feels a little pity.

He felt that it was a pity, but Concubine Mei Jiang Caiping, who was the party concerned, did not feel it. Her feelings for Li Longji have been sent back along with the poem of returning the pearls, and Li Longji's partiality for Yang Yuhuan also made her realize that although there are many palaces in Chang'an City, there is no place where she can spend the rest of her life in peace.

In comparison, it is better to go to Luoyang, although it is cold and desolate, at least ...... There is no fear of life for the time being.

She was not convicted, at least nominally, she went to Luoyang Shangyang Palace to manage the palace maids over there, preparing for Li Longji's possible eastern tour.

"Out of town?" In the carriage, she asked softly.

The maid sitting outside the car said with a crying voice: "Back to Niangniang, out of the city......"

"It's good to get out of town......"

Jiang Caiping lifted the curtain, half of her body got out of the carriage, looked back at the Chang'an city wall that was gradually moving away, and saw that the corner tower and the city wall were gradually getting smaller, she stared for a long time, wanting to cry, but she couldn't cry out half a tear.

Tears have long been left in Chang'an City.

"Mother, do you want to stop for a while?" The palace maid beside her asked.

"No, that's it, the farther away you are, it's best."

Jiang Caiping's honor guards are not much, and there are only more than 100 guards, of which there are 16 palace maids and eunuchs serving her, and the others are all "escort" guards. They went all the way, out of Chang'an, and crossed the Baqiao. Their speed was naturally not fast, and when evening came, when they arrived at Xinfeng Station, the officers of the guards came to ask if they would stay here, and Jiang Caiping agreed.

But at this time, Xinfengyi was already overcrowded.

Ye Chang and the others stayed here, and Li Xiao did the same. He had just finished washing, and was discussing the situation in Liaodong with Zhang Hao, Cen Shen, Qin Qinshou and others, when he heard the sudden noise of people outside, he said with a smile: "This Xin'an Station is worthy of being an important post station into Chang'an, and there are really many people coming and going, and there are still people coming at this time...... Ladies and gentlemen, Liaodong is fertile and abundant, as long as we work together, it will definitely be able to make its prosperity not inferior to Chang'an, and at that time, Lushun will no longer be a small camp today, and it will be busier than this new Anyi."

"Ye Sima really doesn't leave Liaodong for three sentences......" Zhang Hao said with a smile: "On the way here, I have to ask Sima for advice." ”

"Let's help each other, the situation in Liaodong is different from the Central Plains after all, some feasible strategies in the Central Plains may not be feasible in Liaodong, so sometimes, there will be expedient measures, and then please give you more advice.

This is to give everyone a preventive shot, although with the help of Li Linfu, Ye Changyu in Liaodong does not have to be constrained by the officials, and even among his colleagues, no one can contain him. However, the bureaucracy of the Tang Dynasty itself is an invisible constraint, and if Ye Chang wants to implement his will, there are times when he must break this bureaucracy.

"That's nature...... Why is it getting more noisy outside? Cen Shendao.

There was an escort who went out to investigate, and came back after a while and said: "It's Concubine Mei's car that has arrived here, but the pavilion is full and is vacating the place, but the people who are vacating it are a little reluctant to ......."

"Who?" Zhang Hao said curiously when he heard this.

"That's it." The guard pouted.

The so-called guy is Li Xiao, what Li Shizhi did in Baqiao, and finally ended with him swallowing his anger and retreating. As for Li Xiao, who was yelling and scolding, he also held Li Shizhi and apologized to Ye Changdao.

"Only those who come out of Chang'an City dare to do this, and Concubine Mei is now relegated to the cold palace." Cen Sando.

Zhang Hao shook his head: "It is to be demoted to a cold palace again, Concubine Mei is a saint concubine after all, but a monarch, Li Xiao is still so arrogant in treating sin, which can be seen." ”

"Concubine Mei must be accompanied by a lot of cars, so let's let some houses come out, and we don't need so much." Ye Chang felt a little guilty in his heart, and he sighed: "Although it wasn't my strategy, but Concubine Mei was demoted, and I have something to do with it after all."

"There are a lot of us, how to make the law, we can't be in this courtyard with Concubine Mei and her party." Zhang Ho said.

The group of them occupied a courtyard, and Ye Chang thought for a while: "Brother Zhang, Brother Cen and Brother Qin, a few of you squeeze in, let Yi Cheng find a room, and I and my entourage will go outside to set up a tent." When we were out on the battlefield, it was common to set up this camping tent. ”

"Why do you need to leave us one, we also live in tents." Cen Shen said with a smile: "It's not to go to Liaodong to sit back and enjoy the success, you have to suffer some hardships in the end, instead of going there to endure hardships, it's better to start getting used to it now"

They summoned the post keeper and said that they had vacated their yard and only asked for an open space to set up a tent, but the post man naturally couldn't ask for it. They brought the marching tent with them, and soon cleared the clearing, and then set up a camp, and Concubine Mei and her party also lived in the small courtyard they had just let out.

As soon as the tent was set up, a little eunuch came and asked, "I don't know who is Ye Sima of Jili Prefecture?" ”

"Something is." Ye Chang did not enter the tent at this time, and was talking with Cen Shen and the others around the fire, and when he heard this, he responded.

"Niangniang has a purpose, summon Ye Sima to go." The eunuch glanced at Ye Chang.

"Oh......" Ye Chang frowned slightly: "I don't know what happened to the mother?" ”

"Niangniang heard that this hospital was let by Ye Sima, and she wanted to thank her in person."

Ye Chang hesitated slightly, thanking him in person was just talking, Concubine Mei summoned him, but she was afraid that there would be other things, for example, asking her about the reason for leaving the palace. It just so happened that regarding Concubine Mei's departure from the palace, Ye Chang also felt the need to explain to Concubine Mei, and immediately followed the eunuch back to the courtyard.
