The hall was silent for a moment, and then Li Longji's loud laughter sounded.

Li Longji has not laughed so heartily for nearly ten years, Xiao Jiangyuan was a little surprised, turned his head and glanced at it, and also covered his lips with his sleeves and laughed out loud.

The Son of Heaven smiled, and the courtiers, palace people, and eunuchs in the palace no longer endured it, and laughed one after another, but Zhang Jiuling only glanced at An Lushan lightly, and continued to lower his eyes. Hearing that Zhang Jiuling seemed to have a low sigh overflowing his mouth, Pei Yaoqing smiled bitterly, glanced at it worriedly, and then looked at Li Linfu beside him, and saw that Li Linfu's smile was a little surprised.

This An Lushan is indeed quite surprising, but Pei Yaoqing doesn't know that Li Linfu's accident is more of a surprise that came suddenly.

Zhang Shouqi's thoughts are actually not difficult to guess. When Li Longji was busy and had some doubts, Li Linfu had already boarded the door of the Dongdu Post House.

Generals who have been defeated on the march and have not been dealt with by military law must first be interrogated by the prime minister after entering Beijing. When the prime minister has made a preliminary decision, it will be presented to the Son of Heaven. If the Son of Heaven has no objection to the Prime Minister's decision, then the generals' charges will be decided by the Prime Ministers, otherwise, the Son of Heaven will meet with the generals and wait for the personal questioning, and then refer to the Prime Minister's opinion to make a final ruling.

Zhang Shouqi naturally knew this, he was already worried, seeing that Li Linfu was like rain in time, and came to cooperate with him to help each other, he immediately hit it off with him, and then took Li Linfu to see An Lushan.

Although the current Tang people like plumpness, they don't like to be obese, so An Lushan's appearance of a fat head and big ears, a belly and a round waist really surprised Li Linfu. Most of the Tang people are judged by their appearance, and Li Linfu is no exception. He originally thought that the person who could make Zhang Shouqi so heavy that he was reluctant to kill should at least be a capable person who marched and fought, and such people were often resourceful and intelligent. But when he saw An Lushan, he only thought of those Kunlun slaves with developed limbs and simple minds.

He couldn't help but worry, could it be that Zhang Shouqi likes An Lushan, just because this person can fight? Can this man understand him? Zhang Jiuling will come to mention someone soon, he doesn't have much time, and he doesn't have extra effort to explain to him.

Maybe Li Linfu was too worried, although he still habitually maintained a smiling face, the contempt still revealed a little. Zhang Shouqi said: "Don't worry, Li Xianggong, I will personally take care of the wind outside, you and I can drop the cup, if that Zhang Zishou comes too early, I will stop him." ”

Li Linfu: "......"

Wouldn't that confirm my suspicions, and wouldn't really reassure me?

There is no way, the matter has come to this, he can only bite the bullet.

At this time, only Li Linfu and An Lushan were left in the house. Li Linfu immediately lifted his robe and sat opposite An Lushan, but saw that An Lushan didn't even look at him, blowing his beard and pouting, and tilting his neck to look up at the beams.

Li Linfu couldn't help laughing. It seems that Fang Cai's own contempt also made An Lushan notice. If he can detect this, it shows that he is not a barbarian who only knows how to fight. Li Linfu calmed down a little, and was not angry at An Lushan's contempt, but calm: "I know what you are thinking." ”

Seeing that An Lushan was unmoved, Li Linfu continued: "Another Beijing official who is weak and likes to point fingers, can be so courteous from General Zhang, can you help me even by you?" ”

An Lushan's eyes flowed a little. Li Linfu made persistent efforts and said: "I know that General Zhang is reluctant to let you go, so he took you to Beijing." You want to get a chance to survive from the saints, but as long as Zhang Xianggong is there, it will be difficult for this matter to ascend to the sky. Fortunately, because of General Zhang, the saint will definitely meet you, but if you don't know the saint, you don't know how to please the saint, and Zhang Shoujue understands the part of the saint, and you don't dare to believe it, am I right? ”

It's a matter of life, and the person in front of him is really magical, An Lushan's face changed again and again, and he couldn't hold it anymore. He has suffered a lot, and it has long been instinctive to be able to bend and stretch, so his attitude immediately became respectful, and he also made a big gift to Li Linfu: "The villain is rude and rude, and he also wants to save the villain's life regardless of his past suspicions." The villain must remember the great kindness of the minister, and he must repay it in this life! ”

Li Linfu hurriedly arched his hand in the direction of the palace and said, "Don't dare, don't dare, only the saint can save you, I just built a bridge in the middle." But you and I do take what we need, I helped you today, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I naturally hope that you can help me. ”

"Villains can do it!"

"Rejoice! Okay, so I'll tell you what to do. ”

Li Linfu only said a few points in general terms at that time, and how to play it depends on An Lushan himself. He never expected that as soon as An Lushan appeared, the effect would be so good.

In fact, even An Lushan himself didn't expect it. Accidents are numerous, and he can only make mistakes.

Seeing that An Lushan kept trying to kneel up straight, which was very difficult and laborious, Xiao Jiangyuan glanced at him and sent four little eunuchs in the palace to help. But the eunuchs helped for a long time, but they didn't move.

Eunuchs: "......"

At this time, An Lushan himself was a little embarrassed, and laughed: "A few big officials, why don't we try again?" ”

Li Longji couldn't hold back again, and said with a smile: "It seems that four is not enough, come four more - General Zhang, get up quickly and help my gang of useless sons." ”

Zhang Shouqi got the order, immediately got up, stuck An Lushan's armpit, and with the concerted efforts of the other eight little eunuchs, An Lushan was finally straightened.

Turning his eyes, he saw that Xiao Jiangyuan always covered his lips, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, Li Longji became more and more relaxed, and said, "General An, what are you doing in a daze?" ”

As soon as An Lushan entered the hall, he attracted Li Longji's attention - he had never seen such a white and fat person. And although An Lushan is bound, his eyes are still flexible and spiritual. Li Longji watched him look at the scenery in the hall loudly, and when he faced himself, he was still stunned, and even forgot that he shouldn't have looked directly at the holy face, and the more he looked at it, the more interesting he felt.

An Lushan knew that he bowed his head and replied this time, but his eyes were still wide open, and he raised his eyes to look at Li Longji from time to time: "The criminal ministers have traveled all the way, and they have seen that the cities everywhere they have gone are more prosperous than one another, which is already an eye-opener, and I don't want to be even more so in the eastern capital Luoyang, and the criminal ministers no longer dare to imagine what Chang'an is like!" The heart of the criminal minister was full of excitement and reverence, and he forgot that this trip was to ask for sin, and only wanted to see what the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who had been loyal to the criminal minister, and who was able to govern so many prosperous cities, what did he look like, and he was stunned for a while, and he was ...... ugly."

Li Longji nodded very favorably, and chuckled: "Then you see it now, what do I look like?" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this-An Lushan was obviously deliberately flattering, Li Longji would not fail to hear it, but he raised such a tricky question, it seems that he is really careful about Zhang Shouqi. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shake her head secretly, and she didn't know whether to say that this An Lushan luck was too good or too bad. His speech is clearly Li Longji's favorite at the moment, and it may be his favorite from now on, but it is ...... If he answers ordinarily, the effect will inevitably be greatly reduced, and today's result may be different, but her Ah Lang asked like that, how can he answer?

Do you want to say that her Ah Lang does not look like a human, but the appearance of a god in the heavens?

Li Linfu didn't expect that in Li Longji's place, he could also be regarded as missing, and he couldn't help but sweat for An Lushan together with Zhang Shouqi. As for Zhang Jiuling, he still seems to be out of the way, while Pei Yaoqing and other permanent staff officers are in the mood of watching a good show.

Listening to An Lushan, he thought about it for a while, and said loudly: "His Majesty the Emperor is like the most majestic mountain in the world, like the broadest river in this territory, like an eagle soaring in the vast sky, like the radiant sun outside the window!" His Majesty the Emperor is what the Holy Lord of the Ming Monarch should look like in the minds of the guilty ministers! The criminal minister was terrified, knowing that he was called 'disrespectful in front of the palace', and the criminal was reckless for a while, and he lost the battle, and it was even more difficult to escape the death penalty, the crime was unforgivable, and the crime deserved death! The sinner is afraid of death, but the sinner has seen the world's premier great man, and even if he dies, he has no regrets! Your Majesty the Emperor, please give the death to the guilty! ”

Such straightforward flattery is the first time everyone has heard it. Most of the courtiers couldn't speak, it can be seen that An Lushan actually said a car, and couldn't help but look at each other, but I don't know that for An Lushan, those words are actually half-true and half-false, and many of them are emotional.

Only Zhang Jiuling was indifferent, as if he had known that this would be the case.

From the beginning of the interrogation of An Lushan, Zhang Jiuling felt an unprecedented thorniness. This point, Pei Yaoqing, who was accompanying him, saw it very clearly. He didn't know what was going on, An Lushan either talked to them about him, or asked them something about what they didn't have, and he could even ask the question of whether the famous prostitutes in Chang'an Pingkangfang were white or not! Especially for Zhang Jiuling, An Lushan was full of targets and attacks, as if he was ...... deliberately angered Zhang Jiuling.

He persuaded more than once: "You have committed a capital crime, not to mention that you have a good attitude to seek leniency, and you are still so unruly and profligate, is the interrogation we are waiting for just a formality?" ”

But I heard An Lushan ask rhetorically: "Isn't it?" ”

"You...... It's too much! ”

"In the end, the only one who can decide my life and death is the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty, and you are the prime minister, aren't you also doing things for the Son of Heaven?"

Pei Yaoqing was so angry that he couldn't speak, and said in his heart, could it be because Zhang Jiuling offended Zhang Shouling before, and this An Lushan was sent by Zhang Shouling to deliberately anger Zhang Jiuling? You can't joke with the lives of your subordinates, right?

But I saw that Zhang Jiuling was still quietly looking at An Lushan, his teeth and claws, his face did not change, and he couldn't see any emotion. But Pei Yaoqing still found that Zhang Jiuling's hand hidden in his sleeve had been tightly clenched into a fist.

The swan song of the Tang Dynasty
