Pinglu Jiedu made An Lushan return to Beijing to recount his merits before the lunar month, and after meeting the emperor, he received a commendation. He did not plan to stay in Chang'an to participate in the so-called Shangyuan Lantern Festival, so just after the Yuan Zheng, he submitted a statement to the emperor on the third day of the first year to return to Pinglu to stick to his post. Li Longji was naturally quite satisfied with his diligent work attitude, and even sent officials from the Ministry of Rites to see him off outside the city.

Although the fat man has a natural advantage in Datang, it is not only because he is fat.

From ancient times to the present, there is a constant truth, a person can step by step from the grassroots to a high-ranking official, must have his own unique ability, and this ability is not possessed by others.

Some abilities, although despised and shameful, are a shortcut to success. Confucianism and Taoism are not really all-encompassing, but rather a truly useful philosophy of existence, sometimes on the opposite side of morality.

Of course, An Lushan will not speak these truths, but he is a faithful practitioner of the truths. Now he is already very beautiful, as the middle of the imperial history, as the envoy of the Pinglu Festival. The saint's favor for him is also deepening day by day, and if it is expected, he is expected to serve as the envoy of the Fan Yang Festival this year.

He marched on the way home in high spirits, surrounded by his newly promoted henchmen An Shouzhong and Yu Hou Zhuya. Liuxu hunted in the cold wind of the early morning, the iron armor of the silver sword officer was covered with frost, the sound of horses' hooves beating on the frozen ground, and the heroic posture of the horsemen made him full of spirit, which can be described as majestic.

"Fat man, get here!"

However, not far away came a crisp cry like a yellow bird, like a loud whip, which suddenly whipped him from Pinglu Jiedu to An Fat.

"Stop!"

The entire queue came to an abrupt halt, as if pulled by an invisible force, and the queue remained tightly organized.

The subconscious action of the guards is to scout the surroundings, ready to defend Zhongcheng at any time, and grab the handle of the knife first to feel safe.

They turned their heads to see the procession led by three noble ladies, and they didn't know what to do, so they had to turn their eyes to the general in front of them.

An Shouzhong's face was full of embarrassment, and he secretly wondered in his heart where did this thief woman come from, she dared to drink in front of her to stop the Jiedu envoy ranks, did she really want to die?

An Lushan frowned slightly, and said coldly to An Shouzhong beside him: "This is the sister of Yang Taizhen's family, and her grace has deepened in recent days, and it can be regarded as a chicken dog ascending to heaven." You just wait here and don't move, and you will come when you go. ”

He whipped the horse's buttocks and jumped out of the queue towards the Yang sisters, and when he was more than ten feet away from them, he turned over and dismounted, his face was already blooming with a wild chrysanthemum-like smile, and the bigger his lips grew, the more honest and simple he became.

An Lushan knelt on one knee in front of the three ladies, hugged his chest with Turkic etiquette and said with a smile: "Lushan meets the three aunts, and wishes the aunts eternal youth and more and more beautiful appearances." ”

"Fat Man An can talk," Yang Yuyao stepped forward with a whip on the horse, and asked playfully, "Where are you going?" ”

"Back to the third aunt, Lushan's return to Beijing is over, although I am reluctant to give up Chang'an, but I still have to return to Pinglu to serve."

An Lushan's answer was also quite relaxed, as if to accompany their concern.

Yang Yuyao smiled again: "Why be in such a hurry, it's only five days since Yuan Zheng passed today, how about staying in Chang'an for a few days to play with us?" “

This is just a gossip remark, presumably An Lushan will also excuse the urgent affairs in the army, how could the dignified Pinglu Jiedu envoy change his mind because of the words of a noble lady.

Li Siye watched from the side to see how he should face the brutal royal princess.

Who knew that An Lushan actually bowed down and crossed his hands and said: "Well, my aunt is right, then I will stay for a few days, and then return to Pinglu in a few days." ”

After he said that, he shouted to the team not far away: "Call me all home!" Return to Chang'an and wait a few days before leaving! ”

When the queue heard An Lushan's order, the rear team turned around with the front team, and quickly turned back, and they were really about to return to Chang'an City.

Li Siye was taken aback, this guy actually changed his plan directly because of Yang Yuyao's words, isn't this a holy decree?

On the other hand, the three sisters of the Yang family who were sitting on the horse, after they showed a little surprise, the smug look on their faces became more and more intense, and they became more and more satisfied with An Lushan's performance. A feudal envoy who controls thousands of miles of territory regards their casual words as a golden rule, which greatly satisfies their vanity and self-esteem.

This person is really a master who drills at the crack and meets the master who does not show his traces.

Li Siye rode at the end of the team without saying a word, just observing coldly. An Lushan didn't seem to see him, and he didn't even sweep the afterglow of his eyes, and the two men had a tacit understanding in pretending not to know each other.

"Dare to ask the three aunts, how could they think of coming out for a walk on this cold day."

"Of course, I have nothing to do, and I want to go out and hunt some game."

"It's good to hunt wild food, there are a few good hunters in the Lushan army, I called them over and hunted more roe deer and wild sheep for my aunts."

"Forget it," Yang Yuyao waved her hand boringly: "Hunting is also quite boring, since you have met An Fatzi, you can simply go back to Yang's Mansion with us, and show us the new things we have made recently, how about we gamble on the ball and play a lottery?" ”

Is Yang Yuyao planning to gamble billiards with An Lushan? The three sisters have been immersed in it all day long, and their skills are getting better and better, and they suddenly bully a novice who has never even held a rod. If you want to count the lottery, this is tantamount to blatantly asking for bribes.

"Okay," Lu Shan clapped his hands to express his joy: "Although I don't know what it is, since the three aunts like it very much, Lu Shan will accompany him to the end!" Ha ha! ”

Li Siye can imagine the picture, a fat man weighing more than 300 pounds is lying on the table with a rod in his hand, and his face is trembling when he hits it.

The group of them returned along the same road, and An Lushan accompanied the three ladies, making them cover their mouths and laugh at any time.

……

In the small building in the center of the Yang Mansion, the servants served tea and poured water back and forth, or stopped to watch, which seemed very lively.

Yang Yuyao slapped the billiard table with a long stick in his hand and said: "This is the billiard game that this lady has only recently come up with, use this white ball to hit the ball of the same color, whoever hits his own ball first, and finally knocks the black ball into the hole, who wins." How about a bet of gold or two at a time? ”

Li Siye leaned against the door panel and hugged his chest and smiled, and Yang Yuyao, who had lied, subconsciously glanced back at him. He didn't care at all, this was not hard work, and he couldn't apply for patent protection, but it was better to make this girl happy.

However, An Lushan followed Yang Yuyao's gaze and glanced at him, although there was still a smile on his face, his eyes were as cold as a viper.

"I'm going to tee off." Yang Yuyao lay on the table and swung into it, knocking several sandalwood balls into all directions.

When it was An Lushan's turn to play, he had a strange posture lying on his stomach, and he deliberately deviated when hitting the ball, which made several ladies laugh, but he was serious, as if he was really clumsy. Not to mention, this guy does have the talent of a comedy star.

The three ladies of the Yang family took turns to fight, swinging their clubs to hit the ball, abusing An Lushan for a while, but the other party was still happy.

During this period, the servants sent cut meat and mutton in a water basin, and An Lushan held the mutton basin and pulled a large basin, and continued to swing and fight, naturally he still lost. However, his clever improvement of skills also made them win less smoothly, making them feel like they had won their opponents in a close match, and they had a strong sense of accomplishment.

An Zhongcheng is really playing with his heart all the time to earn the favor of customers, if the three sisters of the Yang family are customers.

……

As the sky got dark, Li Siye said goodbye to Yang's mansion and rode along the street to return to Pingkangfang to stay in the backyard.

A fat man riding a fat horse with a purple mane followed him and beckoned to him: "Li Zhen Envoy, Li Siye!" ”

Li Siye stopped the horse vigilantly, turned around and crossed his hands and said, "See An Zhongcheng." ”

An Lushan tightened the reins of the horse, pursed his lips and smiled: "I was in the Yang Mansion just now, why didn't I come up to pay my respects." ”

"I thought Zhongcheng didn't remember to be down, so I didn't go up to beg for disgust."

"Hehe," An Lushan said with his head in his hands: "I really forgot at first, and then I remembered that you were the one who sold juggling strength in front of Tonghua Fang." It's really unexpected, you didn't accept my solicitation at the beginning, and you actually went to Qixi to be a town general under the command of Fumeng Lingcha, and what I didn't expect was that you could hook up with the Yang family sisters, it seems that you are really a slippery loach. ”

"Where, where." Li Siye succinctly shot back: "My loach is really nothing compared to your big yellow eel." ”
