After getting Wan'er's letter from Fu Qingqing, Yang Fan's heart was steady, no longer looking left and right, and strode towards the palace gate.

As soon as Yang Fan came out of the noon gate, he saw Li Xucai, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, coming towards him.

Li Xucai was followed by a scribe, holding a stack of cases in his arms, which seemed to be sent to the political affairs hall, as soon as he saw Yang Fan, Li Xucai stood still with a smile and said: "Yang Langzhong, it's been a long time." ”

Yang Fan recognized him, this Huangmen squire was a former confidant of Prime Minister Li Zhaode, and since Li Zhaode took power alone, he was also very beautiful in the court. Yang Fan stood still with a smile, bowed his hand and said, "Li Shilang, long time no see." ”

"Haha, Yang Langzhong's trip to southern Xinjiang is very happy, this success is returned, the saint will be rewarded for his merits, and Yang Langzhong will be promoted to the heavenly official mansion, which is what everyone expects, and it is gratifying."

Li Xucai approached with a loud smile, and lowered his voice: "Erlang's trip to southern Xinjiang lived up to expectations, and Li Xiang was also very happy. ”

"Oh! Lee Sang-...... It's too polite to be humble. ”

Yang Fan's heart moved slightly, but he did not hesitate in his mouth, and calmly thanked him.

Li Xucai smiled slightly, arched his hand to Yang Fan again, and walked towards the palace.

Yang Fan stood in place, looking at his back, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Before the trip to southern Xinjiang, Yang Fan expected that this vicious fight with the imperial historian would be vigorously impeached by the imperial historians, and in order to avoid constraints from the court, he asked Li Zhaode to defend it, and Li Zhaode readily agreed.

Later, Huang Jingrong forced the Wu Man and the White Man to rebel. When the news of the rebellion of the two barbarians reached Beijing, Wu Zetian's attitude changed greatly, from obstructing Yang Fan to supporting Yang Fan, and Li Zhaode had no use of force.

However, regardless of whether Li Zhaode played a role in this matter, his previous promise was enough, and Yang Fan must pay a visit when he returns to Beijing this time. Li Zhaode also knew this very well in his heart, since this was the case, what did he do when he made such a gesture of corporal Lixian and took the initiative to invite?

This is not Li Zhaode's style at all. Li Zhaode at the moment. But he doesn't take anyone seriously. Yang Fan almost didn't have to think deeply about it, and thought of the reason: the election of officials in southern Xinjiang!

Elector!

Now that there are more and more officials who are attached to Li Zhaode, why do people follow you, is it not because they are more stable with you, have more opportunities, have a more ambitious future, and have more ways out for their children and nephews? It's obvious. Li Zhaode also eyed this good opportunity for the election of officials in southern Xinjiang.

Yang Fan turned around with a wry smile secretly, and was startled as soon as he turned around.

This is in front of the palace gate there is no need to be nervous and vigilant from time to time plus he was contemplating yang fan didn t notice when someone had already come to him this turn. But it scared him.

The person standing behind Yang Fan was Song Zhixun of Guanglu Temple, Song Zhixun was looking at him with an intriguing smile, and when he saw him turn around, he said with a smile: "Erlang Independent Palace Gate, thoughtful, I don't know what happy things are?" ”

Yang Fan had already settled down, and said with a smile: "Song Sicheng said that he laughed, and he just remembered a trivial matter by chance. What a happy event. ”

Song Zhixun hit haha. Said: "Erlang has returned after success and has been transferred to heaven." His Royal Highness King Liang was extremely happy, and specially set up a banquet in the house to catch the wind for Erlang, and invited Erlang to attend the banquet at the end of the day. ”

Yang Fan lost his voice and said: "It's not time today? ”

Although he didn't know when Song Zhixun came, he was sure that when he spoke to Li Xucai, Song Zhixun definitely hadn't come yet, so he could never have heard Li Xucai's words before he deliberately said such a time, which can only be said to be a coincidence.

Although the emperor does not go to court today, the various yamen are working as usual, and the officials generally deal with their official affairs as soon as possible in the morning and then in the afternoon, so it is not surprising that Li Zhaode and Wu Sansi coincidentally chose this time in the afternoon.

When Song Zhixun saw Yang Fan like this, he couldn't help but say suspiciously: "What? Could it be ...... Jiro already has an appointment? ”

Wu Sansi and Li Zhaode coincidentally invited Yang Fan, which was no different from the previous purpose of the Shandong Shi clan and the Guan Long family. These big shili and powerful ministers have this performance, not that Yang Fan, the election official of southern Xinjiang, can make a decision in one word, Wu Zetian did not grant him this right, and the final decision is not in his hands.

But since Wu Zetian chose him in order to cushion the pressure from the various Shili factions and ease the resistance from the tribal leaders in southern Xinjiang, he had the right to vote primaries.

Li Zhaode and Wu Sansi and the major families use their connections and shili, can they forcibly insert their own people into it? Is it possible to veto Yang Fan's proposed candidate? Of course he can, but doing so is too poor and evil, he wants to suppress Yang Fan easily, and he can't suppress the impeachment from other factions.

Yang Fan couldn't help them, but the other shili had ample reasons to impeach them for using their power to overturn their lives, interfere with the election of officials, and make their own selfish interests. However, by Yang Fan proposing these candidates, they are justified.

At that time, they can let go of their hands and feet and support Yang Fan in secret, as long as they can resist the attacks from other shili, they can achieve their wishes, and they will not fall into passivity from beginning to end, Yang Fan's importance lies in this. Wu Sansi and Li Zhaode put down their bodies and took the initiative to invite quickly, just for fear of being taken first by others.

Of course, Yang Fan would not say that Li Zhaode had already sent someone to invite him, and being able to send someone to show that they had contact, contact, and a relatively close relationship with each other. For example, Wu Chengsi could only do his best to recommend his people now, and he also expected that Yang Fan would not give him special attention, so he could only grit his teeth and wait to find Yang Fan's handle.

If Yang Fan told Song Zhixun that Li Xiang had sent someone to invite him, Wu Sansi would immediately understand that Yang Fan and Li Zhaode's faction were connected, and Yang Fan would be missing a hole card, and it would not be easy to maintain his current transcendent identity in the future. But if you can't tell the truth, how can you shirk it?

Whether it is Li Zhaode or Wu Sansi, if they shirk the invitation, they will definitely offend people. Yang Fan was in a dilemma, when suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves, from far and near, "splashing" galloped.

galloping in front of the palace, if it is not for an important military emergency, it is almost impossible, which official and powerful person does not know how to restrain his horse and gallop wildly when he arrives in front of the palace? Could it be that something big happened at the border gate?

Yang Fan and Song Zhixun were a little surprised, and turned their heads to look together, but saw that the person who came was not a military horse with a small triangular flag on his back, but a monk with a bare head and a monk's robe with big sleeves.

The monk beat the horse and galloped wildly, unscrupulous, the front of the palace was empty, and there were few people, he saw Yang Fan at a glance, and immediately grinned, daxiao shouted: "Seventeenth brother, don't come unharmed!" ”

"Senior Brother Hongliu!"

Yang Fan was overjoyed, and hurriedly confessed to Song Zhixun, and hurried to meet him.

When the horse approached, Hongliu hurriedly pulled the reins of the horse, turned over and jumped off, and gave him a tight hug: "Seventeenth brother, what you did in Southern Xinjiang, our brothers know." It's good, I didn't lose the face of our White Horse Temple, and under Master Xue, you have to be arrogant. Whoever dares to work against us, we want someone to look good! ”

Hongliu said that his eyebrows flew and danced, and he punched Yang Fan in the chest. It seems that Yang Fan cut down two Qincha in southern Xinjiang, and the other Qincha were also locked up and imprisoned one by one after returning to Beijing, which really suited the appetite of this reckless monk.

Yang Fan said with a smile: "Senior brother has won the award, how did you find the palace city, this is the case, the junior brother should have gone to visit the master and the senior brothers first." ”

Hongliu said with a smile: "You don't know Master's temperament, you are as anxious as a thunderbolt, how can you still bear the temperament to wait for you in the temple." As soon as I heard that you were back, Master smiled from ear to ear, now I have gone to 'Jin Hai Drunk' to wait for you, all the brothers and sisters are here, if you are okay, let's leave now, don't let Master wait for a long time. ”

Yang Fan was overjoyed when he heard it, a prime minister, a prince, one has power in his hand, and the other has imperial power in his hand, and the two of them chose to invite him to the banquet at the same time, no matter how eager he is, he can't think of a way to do both, unless the emperor wants to set up a banquet for him, no matter what reason he uses to refuse a party's banquet, he will offend people.

But there is one exception, and that is Xue Huaiyi! Xue Huaiyi is a Hun person, no one cares, whether it is Li Zhaode or Wu Sansi, they are not willing to deal with this Hun person. And his purpose of inviting Yang Fan to the banquet is the most simple, it has nothing to do with the election of officials, and it has nothing to do with the government, he invited Yang Fan to the banquet, simply because he was happy and wanted to drink, whether it was Wu Sansi or Li Zhaode, when he heard that he robbed his guests, he could only smile bitterly, and he would neither be angry with him, nor blame Yang Fan.

Yang Fan was overjoyed, and then he was overjoyed, changed into an embarrassed look, turned back to Song Zhixun and said: "Song Sicheng, look at this ......, the prince is invited to a banquet, Yang is flattered, but the family teacher is called, but he doesn't dare not go, this ...... Why don't you come to visit His Royal Highness King Liang again tomorrow, what do you think? ”

Yang Fan said, and looked at him, his meaning was self-evident: "Song Sicheng, this person behind me is a bastard!" Behind this bastard behind me is the number one bastard in this dynasty, Yang Fan really can't help it, you should be careful when you speak, be careful to be beaten, he really dares to fight! ”

Hongliu glared and said, "What, does King Liang also want to invite my seventeenth brother to drink?" ”

Song Zhixun stepped forward with a wry smile and arched his hand: "His Royal Highness King Liang really intends to invite Erlang to have wine, but since Master Xue has already prepared a banquet, then ...... Ahem, if you have a master like a father, it is naturally ...... Haha, the old man returns to His Royal Highness, and tomorrow we will have a banquet to invite you. ”

……

Yang Fan didn't dare to gallop in front of the palace, and after saying goodbye to Song Zhixun, he led the horse and Hongliu out of the palace range, and then got on the horse and galloped to "Jin Hai drunk." ”

Hongliu rode on the horse, suddenly hahadaxiao, raised his thumb and praised Yang Fan abruptly: "Erlang is really good." ”

Yang Fan smiled bitterly and said: "Sixth Senior Brother, you are here again, isn't it just a trip to Southern Xinjiang, and you don't need to praise it left and right." ”

Hongliu shook his bald head vigorously and said, "That's not what I'm talking about. ”

Yang Fanqi said: "What's the matter?" ”

Hongliu winked at him and smiled, "Don't hide it from me, everyone knows about it." ”

Yang Fan was even more strange: "What is known to everyone?" ”

Hongliu said with a smile: "Of course, Princess Taiping is pregnant!" Hehe, you're not going to tell me that kid is a martial horse, are you? ”
