Volume 1: Who Broke Through the Void by the Stars Chapter 457 One thing after another
Ye Chang was definitely provoking him
From being in front of Li Longji to now waiting for him at the door, Ye Chang has only one purpose, which is to provoke him
An Lushan is not stupid, he is very smart, otherwise he would not have set off such a big wave as the Anshi Rebellion that almost engulfed the Tang Dynasty. After he figured this out, he suddenly began to wake up: don't be fooled
Now is not the time to turn his face with Ye Chang, let him be rampant for a moment for the time being
Thinking of this, An Lushan stared at Ye Chang deeply, then sneered and walked away.
After walking a few steps, he heard Ye Chang say again: "An Hu'er, do you know that the mirror I got in Aolai Country is dedicated to you, and it can make your guy show his original form."
An Lushan's cheeks twitched, and he came to the country proudly...... This is Ye Chang's famous lie, and now the whole world knows that the country of Aolai is completely empty.
What is Ye Chang's intention in telling this lie?
He was full of doubts and anger, but he couldn't bear it, and after leaving the palace, he went straight to his residence.
Originally, like Ye Chang, Li Longji prepared a place for him to live in his Huaqing Palace, but An Lushan was not right under Li Longji's nose because of frequent personnel exchanges, so he resigned. When he arrived at his lodgings, the first thing he did was to summon the noble and the solemn, these two men were his masterminds, and many doubts needed to be answered by them.
Noble and solemn came to see him with a smile.
Ye Chang's return to Gyeonggi this time can be said to be a tiger in a trap, as long as Li Longji doesn't let him out, then Ye Chang's threat will be reduced by more than half. It is precisely because of this realization that noble and solemn will be full of joy. But seeing An Lushan's gloomy appearance, the two of them glanced at each other and guessed that he was only afraid of being aggrieved.
"Doctor An, could it be that the Son of Heaven has let Ye Chang out of Beijing again?" The two of them thought about this aspect first.
"Never?"
"That handed over the authority of the forbidden army to Ye Chang?"
"It's not like that, both of you are readers, and scholars have always had a lot of flowers, so think about it for me, what does Ye Chang mean by this cheap species." An Lushan felt irritable in his heart, interrupted the two of them's random conjectures, told the two of them what happened today, and finally said: "I always feel that something is wrong, does Ye Chang know something, or is he playing tricks?" ”
Noble and solemn invariably paused: "Oh no"
"What's wrong?" An Lushan was stunned.
"Doctor An should have had a seizure at that time, and he should scold Ye Chang fiercely, and even fight with him" noble said: "You just can't swallow your anger and swallow your anger"
An Lushan frowned: "At this critical juncture, I don't want to fight with Ye Chang to cause something else...... Is this wrong? ”
"Doctor An, Ye Chang must have gotten some news, and he is testing Doctor An" Yan Zhuang also said: "Although Ye Chang is domineering, he actually acts in a measured manner, and he is doing this today to see if Doctor An really has any secret ......"
"What do you mean?"
"Doctor An's temperament, but he can be a ninja after being humiliated by others?" Noble and open.
When An Lushan heard this, he suddenly realized, and he was also stunned: "This guy is treacherous"
The first time Ye Chang humiliated him in front of Li Longji, maybe it was just a counterattack against him, but then waiting for him at the door, it was clearly a temptation for him. The funny thing is that he realized that this was a temptation at the time, but he only thought that Ye Chang wanted to provoke him and get some kind of news from his unscrupulous words, but he never thought that what Ye Chang wanted to test was not specific news at all, but his attitude
He has always been arrogant and never swallowed his anger, and today he behaved abnormally in front of Ye Chang, which only proves one thing, he is sure to take revenge on Ye Chang in a very short period of time
Thinking of this, An Lushan couldn't help but sweat coldly: "It's a thief who deserves to be Li Linfu's son-in-law, and he really has Li Linfu's demeanor."
Li Linfu was like this at the beginning, as long as he looked at his face, he could guess what he was thinking, which made An Lushan afraid like a tiger. Now Ye Chang may not have reached Li Linfu's skills back then, but the ability to figure out people's hearts is in the same vein as Li Linfu.
Gao Shang and Yan Zhuang looked at each other for a moment, and both of them had a worried look on their faces: "Doctor An, Ye Chang is treacherous, if you want to deal with him, you have to be extremely careful." ”
"I know, I know...... And now that he is aware of it, you say, 'What shall I do?' When An Lushan said this, his eyes were a little fierce: "This thief can't be kept."
"The time is not yet ripe, and it is suddenly launched, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve a big thing, and I will suffer from it." Gao Shang muttered, "This thing ......"
Yan Zhuang also lowered his head and thought hard, seeing that his two masterminds were like this, An Lushan got up and walked around the room with his hands behind his back, sometimes with a fierce look in his eyes, and sometimes a little confused.
He had some regrets in his heart, but it was a pity that Ji Wen was not here, although he was noble and solemn, although he was also resourceful, he was not a high-ranking official after all, and the two of them were not as good as Ji Wen in terms of temple disputes.
"Yes" After waiting for a while, Yan Zhuang suddenly said.
"Please, please"
Ye Chang only tested Dr. An's attitude, but he didn't test Dr. An's methods...... Since this is the case, let's just say that Dr. An and Yang Xiang are about to take action when they join forces...... The Yang family has already made up their minds, and they want to shovel the danger Ye Chang"
"This ...... Can you fool Ye Chang? ”
"You don't have to fool him, you just need to temporarily divert his attention, and then he has to try his best to guess how Yang Xiang will meet him." Yan Zhuang laughed twice: "Yang Guozhong is full of little tricks, he fights with Ye Chang, and Ye Chang has no time to take care of Dr. An." ”
"Okay, okay, that's it," An Lushan said happily.
Yang Guozhong also got the news of the conflict between Ye Chang and An Lushan, and when he heard this, his first thought was to stroke his palms and laugh, but then frowned: "I know Ye Chang very well, he is by no means a person who does not know life and death, how could he provoke at this time...... Could it be that there is something in it that I don't know? ”
"What else can I do, I was forced to retreat, I was originally angry, but An Hu'er hit the tip of his gun again, so I naturally wanted to take An Hu'er." Mrs. Qiu Guo said lazily: "Why do you pretend to be sick today, in addition to not being willing to greet him, isn't it just that you don't want to be sent by him on the spot?" ”
"How can it be so simple" Yang Guozhong shook his head and said: "Ye Chang is not that kind of person, his every move has a deep meaning, hmm...... Could it be that he was suspicious of Anhul? Yes, yes, An Hu'er is Hu'er's true colors, and he does things without moderation, I heard that in Liaodong, he took the opportunity of the war with Bohai and Silla, and made some small moves behind Ye Chang's back, I think it must be those small actions that made Ye Chang angry"
Mrs. Qiu Guo was not the slightest interested in military affairs, but she was very interested in the interests of Liaodong, and when she heard this, she was immediately furious: "Hu Er'an dares to do this"
"What's wrong?"
"Didn't you promise, there are still a bunch of benefits in the glass business in Liaodong, all of them are mine, this An Hu'er is about to move, isn't it just going to take my aunt's belongings? It's bearable, it's unbearable, I saw that Anhu'er was not pleasing to the eye, you have to clean him up"
"I know this, An Hu'er has a heavy army, if it weren't for the fact that his political strategy was not as good as Ye Chang's, I would deal with him first and then Ye Chang." Yang Guozhong smiled dumbly, a woman is a woman, and before he got it, he regarded the industry in Liaodong as his own.
"Every time Anhu'er looks at me, he has bad intentions, and I want to gouge out his dog's eyes"
"Okay, when the time comes, his life and death will be handed over to you...... But now, we still have to borrow his strength, to ...... Let him and Ye Chang fight harder"
The two agreed that Mrs. Qiu Guo would go to Li Longji to blow the wind on the pillow, and Yang Guozhong would send someone to An Lushan to send condolences.
Ye Chang stayed in the hot spring palace for one day, and the next day he asked to see Li Longji again. When I saw Li Longji this time, Li Longji was gambling with a few cronies, shouting and cheering endlessly, and some people were even sweating profusely in this winter. Seeing Ye Chang coming, Li Longji smiled and said: "Ye Qing, you are a rich man in the Tang Dynasty, you have to break your fortune today, come and send a few hands with me."
Ye Chang smiled: "The minister is naturally willing, but before that, there are some serious things to ask the saint to judge." ”
Li Longji's brows furrowed slightly, yesterday's unpleasantness came to his heart again, he coughed, and there was a little eunuch next to him, and said sharply: "Ye Shangshu, when it is not a court meeting today, the sage is tired of everything, Ye Shangshu and let the sage rest for a while."
Ye Chang glanced at the little eunuch, it was strange that Gao Lishi was not with him today, not even Yang Yuhuan.
At this moment, when he heard the outside saying "Mrs. Qiuguo has arrived", Ye Chang suddenly realized that Li Longji was about to play with his second aunt, so naturally Yang Yuhuan was not there.
"Let Mrs. Qiu Guo come and ......"
Li Longji was about to use Mrs. Qiu Guo to interrupt Ye Chang's words, but Ye Chang didn't care about etiquette, and said straightforwardly: "Sage, state affairs are important, sages have a decision first, and only then can they be dealt with......"
"You say, you say." Li Longji was helpless and a little absent-minded.
"More than 400,000 rebellious people have been captured in Dugi Province and Henan Province, and so many people are now completely dependent on the support of Luokoucang and other warehouses, and they are gathered in one place, and if they are not handled properly, they will inevitably cause trouble, and even hurt the name of the saint's benevolence. Ask the Holy Judge, are they settled on the spot, or are they outcasts on the frontier? ”
Hearing that Ye Chang was not suing Yang Guozhong, Li Longji was a little happier, what he was most afraid of was that Ye Chang was holding on to Yang Guozhong's fault, and the two were arguing, which ruined his mood.
"What are Ye Qing's plans for this matter?" After pondering for a moment, Li Longji asked.
"There was some hesitation in the minister's heart, if it was treated as an ordinary outcast, it seemed too light, and if it was punished as a prisoner of war, it seemed too heavy."
The so-called ordinary exiles are those who have violated the law and sentenced to exile according to the rules of the past few years, and they can only return to their hometowns when they have obtained military merits or the time has expired; The so-called prisoners of war are based on the example of the Tang Dynasty's wars with foreign countries, and the captured prisoners are auctioned off and bought by various large and small chambers of commerce, serving as mine slaves and serfs, and it is almost impossible to be free for life.
Li Longji smiled slightly: "I thought you would all have to leave and be placed in the three major chambers of commerce."
"Most of the people recruited by the three major chambers of commerce are pure white families, and most of the stewards used are meritorious veterans. If their income is better than that of the family farms, if it is used to arrange for these rebels who were once thieves, will it not encourage them to rebel? Ye Chang said in a deep voice: "If you are not a loyal minister and a filial son, the minister will not dare to use it."
Li Longji laughed, but scolded in his heart.
Ye Chang spoke beautifully, and he was very happy, he knew that Ye Chang was afraid of him, so he made such a choice. These hundreds of thousands of young men who have had the experience of rebellion, if they are really handed over to Ye Chang, Li Longji is afraid that he will not be able to sleep at night. Ye Chang can have this consciousness, and he can maintain Li Longji's face in a very tactful way, which makes Li Longji very satisfied.
"Qing doesn't have any other suggestions?"
"The minister also has a plan, which is to build roads and rivers." Ye Chang said: "After they got into trouble, they dug a lot of roads, and even blocked the canal, so that they could repair these for the time being, so as not to keep idlers in the imperial court." Speaking of this, Ye Chang looked at Li Longji: "It is enough to raise an idler prime minister, and if you raise these hundreds of thousands of people, the court can't afford to raise them."
Li Longji was stunned: Fang Cai still felt that Ye Chang knew the general situation, but he didn't expect to be waiting for him here, Ye Chang still didn't forget after all, and gave Yang Guozhong a little eye medicine.
As long as it's not shouting and killing, just put on some eye medicine......
With a perfunctory heart of turning big things into small things, Li Longji snorted: "This is a good thing, let's deal with it by the Ministry of Industry...... Qing had worked hard before, and he was still sick, so he rested and rested more, and let the people below do these things. ”
Ye Chang smiled bitterly: "The minister is a hard worker, and the saint can rule the world with a bow, but the minister must work hard, otherwise he will live up to the trust of the saint and the people." ”
Is this secretly satirizing Yang Guozhong again?
Li Longji pondered in his heart for a while, but he didn't hear it, and said slowly: "Is there anything else Qing has to do?"
"There's one more thing ...... minister"
Ye Chang grabbed Li Longji and chattered, but this time it was not a big deal, but about the food support of those captured and disorderly people, Ye Chang almost said it as if he was reporting an account, and he said it extremely trivially, and he heard that Li Longji's head was as big as a fight, but he was helpless.
Mrs. Qiu Guo next to her had been waiting impatiently, she didn't come here to listen to Ye Chang report to Li Longji, but to slander, but if Ye Chang was next to her, how could she speak?
Seeing that Li Longji's expression was becoming more and more impatient, Ye Chang took the opportunity to speak: "The minister still has one more thing to ...... about."
"Why are you okay?" Mrs. Yu Guo couldn't help but say: "The saint came to the Hot Spring Palace to recuperate, but not to be busy dealing with your trivial matters."
"There is only this one thing left, and the rest will come back tomorrow." Ye Changdao.
"Tomorrow?" This time, even Li Longji couldn't stand it anymore: "Say it, say it." ”
"The minister stayed in the Huaqing Palace last night, although it was the grace of the saint, but it was difficult to enter and exit the palace and there was much inconvenience, and the minister was idle, so I asked the saint to allow me to move outside the palace."
After this request was made, Li Longji pondered for a while.
Let Ye Chang live in the Huaqing Palace, not only to reflect his "favor" to Ye Chang, but also to facilitate the control of his whereabouts nearby. But Li Longji felt that after this day, Ye Chang's temperament was still the same, and he had not changed much, even if he was in danger, he was not in front of him.
And he is in the palace, and from time to time he comes to disturb, annoys himself with some trivial political affairs, or satirizes Yang Guozhong, which is really annoying.
"Let him out?" He hesitated.
