The blue ribbon silver seal is an official with a rank of two thousand stones, which is almost the highest rank official in the Han Dynasty. The reason why it is said to be "almost" is because there are three princes of ten thousand stones on top of two thousand stones.

Therefore, among the feudal states, there are only two officials who can hang blue ribbons and silver seals, and the two thousand stone Xiang is better than the lieutenant who is two thousand stone, and the prime minister is only six hundred stone.

Naturally, it will not be a lieutenant who appears in the Prime Minister's Mansion, then it can only be the Minister of Changyi.

An Le is a native of Jiaodong, since he was a child, he followed the local Confucianism to learn the "Ram Study" in the "Spring and Autumn Three Biography", and at the age of 37, he was proud of filial piety. first served as a Lang official in Chang'an for three years, and then went to two large counties to become a county magistrate, and only five years ago went to Changyi to become the minister of Changyi.

Judging from the speed of promotion alone, An Le has gone very smoothly along the way, and is far ahead of filial piety in the same period.

If he takes a step further, he should be in Jiuqing's position.

Jiuqing's vacancies are limited, and officials who can sit in those positions not only need ability, but also opportunity.

However, An Le, who was born filial and honest and had smooth sailing in the officialdom, almost lost the opportunity to be promoted to Jiuqing when he became the minister of Changyi - according to the provisions of the "Zuoguan Law", officials who served in various feudal states could no longer hold official positions in the central court.

Although this rule is no longer an iron law, most of the time it is still an insurmountable obstacle for feudal officials.

Therefore, after coming to Changyi Kingdom, An Le did not dare to hope to enter the court and become Jiuqing, but only hoped to lean on the positions of Right Fufeng, Left Feng Yi and Jing Zhaoyin.

However, in the past two years, An Le's heart has had some fluctuations, and he has some "non-divided thoughts", and the driving force that makes him think non-divided is naturally Liu He, who has just left.

An Le actually didn't pass by the main book pavilion by chance, before Liu He walked in, he had already stayed in a secret room next to the main book pavilion, and he listened to the conversation that happened in the main book pavilion just now.

An Le coughed lightly, and Zhang Poji, who was outside the door, immediately heard his Dong Weng's voice, hurriedly closed the side door, and trotted in front of An Le.

"Your Highness is really a bottomless wonderful person." An Le said with his hands behind his back.

"Exactly, His Royal Highness is quick-witted, learns to be rich and has five cars, and is amazing." Zhang Poji did not hesitate to express his appreciation to Liu He, who had just left, at this time.

"How old is Your Highness?"

"If the subordinate remembers correctly, it should be nineteen this year."

"Do you remember what His Highness was like two years ago?" An Le said, twisting a few of his beards.

Zhang Poji smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "Of course remember, don't say it's a subordinate, I'm afraid no one in this huge Changyi country will forget it." ”

"Weird, weird!"

An Le said with a smile, and couldn't help but think of the changes His Highness had made in the past few years.

He has been in Changyi for a total of five years, and the Highness he saw in the first three years and the Highness he saw in the past two years are almost like two people.

Although His Royal Highness was young in the first three years, under the prodding of that group of evil slaves, he behaved lightly and frivolously, and tossed the entire Changyi country into a miasma.

held feasts in the palace, drank and had fun, fought cocks, and messed with prostitutes who were smuggled in day and night; Riding a horse-drawn carriage on Dongmen Street, there are countless pedestrians and officials who have been knocked down and injured; Sneaking out of the city in the middle of the night with a group of cheap slaves, masked horses and trampling on green seedlings, just to see the peasants kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy......

An Le and other subordinates have tried to persuade countless times, but to no avail.

Especially Lang Zhongling Gong Sui and Taifu Wangshi, who get along with His Royal Highness day and night, are often wantonly teased by His Highness and those cheap slaves.

The common people and officials privately gave Liu He the nickname of "a harm to Changyi".

However, it all changed completely from one night two years ago.

It is said that His Royal Highness slept all night after drinking three buckets of wine, and when he woke up again, he was a completely different person.

The first thing His Highness did was to hang the lowly slaves who followed him at the gate of the palace and beat them severely, and then handed them all over to the hands of the workers, so that they could do the hard work of burning charcoal and iron.

After that, His Royal Highness changed from a "harm in Changyi" that everyone hid in to a "Changyi Country" that everyone loved.

Although many things of His Highness still seem to be a little crazy, An Le's subordinates no longer dare to judge themselves, because His Highness's crazy behavior has played an unexpected role later.

An Le couldn't figure out why His Royal Highness had such a change, he could only see this as Emperor Gaozu having a spirit in the sky.

"Envoy, what did you say that Your Highness is so busy all day long and obsessed with all kinds of trivial matters?"

Zhang Poji's question pulled An Le's thoughts from memories to the present.

In fact, the answer to Zhang Poji's question is also what An Le wants to know.

An Le had never seen the princes and kings of other feudal kingdoms, but he had heard of what the kings had done - most of them could not hold up the wall like their previous highnesses, with very few exceptions.

This very few princes and kings are Liu Xu, the king of Guangling.

The reason why Liu Xu, the king of Guangling, is different is because he is the elder brother of today's son, and when today's son is weak and sick, and has no heirs, once something unfortunate happens, Liu Xu, the king of Guangling, is very likely to inherit the unification.

Guangling Wang Xu was an exception because he wanted to sit on the chair in Chang'an.

His Highness is now an exception, will it be ......

"Envoy, will His Highness want to fight for ......" Zhang Poji did not finish his words, because this is an overly sensitive issue, so sensitive that it may become taboo if it is just discussed casually.

No one can guarantee that the partition wall is earless.

"His Royal Highness is the younger generation of the Son of Heaven and King Guangling, and he is still young, and he does not have any foundation and help in the court, if he really wants to fight, I am afraid he will not have much chance of winning."

"But ......"

An Le looked around and confirmed that no new faces were approaching before he said, "But, what if General Sima wants a young man like His Highness?" ”

Young and ignorant, unprovoked, with no relatives, no foundation, and the easiest to manipulate.

Zhang Poji is so smart and old-fashioned, he immediately understood the joints in An Le's words.

"In other words, it is possible for His Highness to ......"

"Shut up!" An Le raised his hand to stop Zhang Poji from continuing.

The speculation of the two now is disrespectful.

"The subordinates are presumptuous."

An Le looked up, and the layers of cornices of the Xiangfu surrounded the small sky overhead, making people feel suffocated.

The Son of Heaven has no heirs, the country is not solid, and a bloody storm is inevitable.

The peace of the rank of two thousand stones is high in front of the people, but it is insignificant in front of the great general Sima, and one wrong step may summon the disaster of death.

After thinking about it for a long time, An Le said: "What His Highness wants to do is His Highness's freedom, His Highness doesn't mention it, and we don't ask as courtiers." ”

"We still treat him as a playful and rebellious prince who only knows how to indulge in trivial matters."

"But what if one day, His Highness takes the initiative to mention to us what he wants to do?" Zhang Poji asked.

An Le took a deep breath, and his mind flashed quickly through the things that His Royal Highness had done for the people of Changyi and the officials of Changyi in the past two years.

"I am the minister of Changyi, a vassal of the king of Changyi, and if the king of Changyi has something, I have something."

In fact, if His Royal Highness becomes the emperor, it should not be too bad.

Of course, An Le didn't say the second half of the sentence.

"From today on, find some people and let them out, just say that there are dragons in Onozawa."

Zhang Poji glanced at An Le, who had always been steady, in surprise, and only after a few breaths did he understand the full meaning of this sentence, and then immediately replied simply: "Only! ”
