On the willow bank of the east Baqiao in Chang'an City, a large number of officials were already standing in the cold wind, most of them were cadres of Li Linfu and his party, including Cao Jiwen, the scholar of Jingzhao Mansion, and Bo Luo Xizao, the lord of the imperial history. Li Siye came a little late, but he didn't want to stand with these people, so he had to stay a little behind, just to complete the task given to him by Yang Yuyao.

When the king of the household came, many officials stepped forward to greet each other, chatting and laughing, and everyone wanted to come forward to show the taste of officialdom. Unexpectedly, Li Shizhi, the left minister, also came to the shore of Baqiao. Li Siye secretly guessed that Li Shizhi may represent the attitude and sincerity of the prince's faction, but this sincerity is too heavy, and it is easy to make An Lushan flutter.

He stood on tiptoe and looked at everyone, and found that there were fifty or sixty of them, which really confirmed Qin Hui's statement that there were three or two friends.

A graceful woman rode slowly towards the bridge on a purple-maned horse, and a handsome little white-faced eunuch led the reins of the horse in front of her. Chang'an City has this style, and there is only the third sister of the Yang family.

The officials were silent for a short time, most of them did not know about the woman, and some men still maintained their official dignity and were reluctant to openly curry favor with women. But after all, there was a breakthrough to the bottom line, and Jiwen squeezed out of the crowd and stepped forward to salute: "The lowly Jiwen has seen Madame." ”

"Hmm," Yang Yuyao nodded with her nostrils pointing to the sky.

As long as someone breaks through the taboo, soon someone will come forward to salute him, and all the officials will come to Yang Yuyao's horse one after another.

Yang Yuyao still had a little answer to Ji Wen, who stepped forward to salute first, but she just swept over with a cold gaze to the person who was late behind, and nodded slightly in return.

Of course, there are also officials such as Li Shi, who adheres to the bottom line, but they just stand aside a little coldly and can't take this crucial step.

Li Siye is naturally not the person who has a set behind the surface, and only after the officials have saluted him did he step forward to fork his hands. Yang Yuyao glanced at him and muttered in a low voice: "I thought you were going to learn those fake Qinggao and pretend not to know your aunt and grandmother." ”

Li Siye laughed implicitly, and stood on the side of Yang Yuyao's horse with only his hands.

At this time, An Lushan was wearing a military uniform, with a big braid on his head, leading a large group of people towards Baqiao, facing many court officials with a smile on their fat faces, and said with their crossed hands: "My colleagues have a deep friendship with Lushan, which really touches me. ”

"An Zhongcheng is serious, An Zhongcheng is an important minister, guarding the border fortress, protecting the territory and the people, and relieving the worries of the saints.

These unnutritious compliments are absolutely necessary to exist at this moment, even if they are hypocritical, they are enough to prove their connections in officialdom and are also a weather vane to measure their favor.

When he rode his horse in front of Wang Ji and Li Shizhi, he hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and saluted the two officials: "Zhongcheng, Zuo Xiang, the two of you are really tormenting your subordinates." ”

"An Zhongcheng doesn't need to be humble, you have made outstanding achievements and are favored by saints, it is the time to ride the wind."

After An Lushan crossed his hands with the two, he finally came to Yang Yuyao, only to see him lift his robe, half-kneel on the ground and cross his hands: "Nephew An Lushan said goodbye to his aunt." ”

Yang Yuyao covered her mouth and let out a giggle laugh: "Fat man, your colleagues in the DPRK and China are all watching, you give me such a big gift, don't feel panicked." ”

An Lushan raised his face and smiled: "Where does my aunt speak, you are my elder, no matter what the occasion, Lushan has to call you an aunt." ”

"Hurry up, my aunt came to see you off, don't you think you have a face?"

"Of course there is face, double face, haha." He stood up and laughed loudly, without being embarrassed or awkward, which made Li Siye admire it very much, this person's psychological ability is really powerful.

He glanced at Li Siye who was standing aside, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect General Li to come too, and I was very moved that you could come." ”

Li Siye crossed his hands and smiled back: "It is the blessing of Heiye to get acquainted with An Zhongcheng, and now that An Zhongcheng has returned to Pinglu, I can't bear to run with the blessing, so naturally I have to send blessings." ”

"Listen." An Lushan laughed and said, "Listen, General Li is really getting better and better at talking."

Yang Yuyao smiled, always riding on the horse and holding her head high, and the entire Baqiao shore seemed to have become her home field.

The horse team of the Pinglu Jiedu envoy had already moved far away from the Baqiao, and An Lushan turned his head and looked at the already empty bridge deck, and snorted a sly laugh at the corner of his mouth. He took out a few Sassanid coins from his bosom and threw them into the water of the Ba River with his right hand.

An Shouzhong couldn't stop it, looked at the river and asked regretfully: "Good gold, why did you throw it away." ”

The Pinglu Jiedu envoy laughed and said, "These gold are stained with too much blood, and it is unlucky to leave them." ”

Shouzhong couldn't help the doubts in his heart, and asked him: "Zhongcheng, we can leave Chang'an before the original yuanzheng, why do you want to listen to the mother-in-law of the Yang family to stay, and almost get involved in that incident." ”

"What do you know, those people are playing, we are watching the play, we can just see the two of us clearly from this scene."

An Shouzhong scratched the braid that was coiled on the top of his head with question marks in his head.

"Don't understand? If you don't understand, it's right. ”

……

Today's weather is still sunny, and there are children playing on the side of the road in Anye Square in Chang'an City, and the people are running for their livelihoods. At this time, several children had an argument over the toy, which turned from pushing and scolding to scolding.

"Xu cub! No wonder you picked up my dragonfly and learned from your father, your Xu family is not a good thing! ”

A couple of older bear children pushed the child to the ground, and when he covered his face and cried, the children ran away.

Li Siye led a carriage into the street, stopped opposite Xu's house, jumped off the wheel, and pretended to go into the shop to buy it—it was a murderous shop that sold dead people's things.

"Lang Jun, are there any relatives at home? I have a three-zhang long white banner here, a full set of funeral clothes, some made of paper from the inside out, and some made of brocade, it depends on Lang Jun's bid. ”

"It's okay," Li Siye smiled, "I'm just coming over to take a look." ”

The shopkeeper raised his eyelids and rolled a glance at him, then turned back to the door.

A man in the carriage got up, reached out and lifted a corner of the curtain, and looked at the crying child sitting on the ground across the street with a sackcloth face.

In the opposite room, a woman with a bun on her head, with only two combs on her head, holding the young girl in her right arm, stretched out her waist and pulled the child sitting on the ground.

"Crying for what? Your father died and didn't even see you cry! The woman kicked the child in the ass a few times, and the child struggled to dodge, crying and calling for grandpa.

The woman kicked and cried at the same time, as if she wanted to vent the pain and pressure of the family upheaval on the child.

After the woman had vented, she cried and fell to her knees on the ground, and then reached out to hold the boy, mother and son and hugged her head and cried, and the young girl in her arms also let out a wow cry.

The man in the carriage grabbed the window wall and lowered his head, his fingers twitching and trembling, shaking off the window curtain.

Li Siye walked out of the ferociousness, grabbed a stack of mortuary clothes in his hand, stepped on the wheel pad and went under his buttocks, and grabbed the reins of the horse with his hands and trembled: "Drive!" ”

The carriage crept along the street and gradually drove into the middle of nowhere, and the people lying behind the carriage finally stopped whining and whispering, but let out a howling cry.
