The two sat for a while, and the maid came to report that Duan suddenly felt unwell and wanted to go back to rest and recuperate. Xin's and her group naturally took the opportunity to say goodbye.

"I'm angry, and I don't plan to go down with you. Wang Jiedu made his wife say to Mu Jiaojiao.

"Isn't that just right? I don't want to see her anyway. Mu Jiaojiao said, still looking indifferent.

Is this a broken jar, or is it going to fight them to the end?

Wang Jiedu made his wife sigh again, and called his daughter-in-law to send people out on her behalf.

An Lushan should be true love for the Duan family. Hearing that Duan's health was not well, he immediately said goodbye anxiously and left with Duan.

It was ok outside. As soon as he returned to the post house, Duan threw himself into An Lushan's arms and cried.

An Lushan already knew what was happening inside, and now he only gently comforted her. Duan Shi was still crying sadly: "Do we have to whisper to them? These two people are so hateful, they don't have me in their eyes, and they don't have you at all!"

"You don't want to think about it, they are people who dare to shake their faces directly in front of Li Zhongshu, the concubine Niangniang was disgusted like that by the surname Cui, but the concubine Niangniang was not angry at all, but respected them and his wife. The sage is even more, when I was in Chang'an, I heard him mention his surname Cui countless times, and asked me about his affairs in Liangzhou. Actually, what do I know? I only told some hearsay things, and the saint laughed happily, and called the concubine to listen to it. The status of these two people in the hearts of the saint and the concubine Niangniang is not much higher than mine, and now I have not gained a firm foothold in the court, if I rashly come to them, I will lose 800 if I kill a thousand enemies, which is too cost-effective. An Lushan said softly.

"Then are we going to put up with it? But don't you see that they really don't like us. They won't agree to what we're asking for. Duan's sobbing said.

"You don't have to worry about this. When the time comes, they can't say yes or not. An Lushan said, and hugged her gently, "It's just that now, I have to wronged you." When this is done, I will definitely slowly alienate the concubine from them. And when the saint and the concubine are disgusted with these two people, I will be able to help you take revenge!"

Hearing her say this, Duan Shi seemed to see the dawn of hope, and quickly nodded with tears in his eyes: "Since you say so, then I will wait for this day." ”

Just after saying this, she still bowed her head and cried.

An Lushan was so distressed that he couldn't do it, he persuaded him for a long time to no avail, and asked hundreds of times before Duan cried: "You are good to me, you feel sorry for me everywhere, you can't bear to let me suffer the slightest grievance, I know your friendship with me." But today, what Mrs. Cui said is actually right, I am a concubine, how can I be qualified to be on an equal footing with them? She should look down on me, who told me that my original identity is destined to be unacceptable!"

"Don't listen to her nonsense!" An Lushan immediately sank his face, "In my heart, you are my wife, and no one except you wants to stay with me for the rest of my life!"

"But my sister is still in Chang'an...... "An Lushan's wife Kang, this is a thorn in Duan's heart." Today, Mu Jiaojiao pointed out her identity, which aroused her hatred for Kang's again. She was unhappy in her heart, so she naturally had to seize the opportunity to remove this thorn in her eye.

"You don't have to worry about that woman! The reason why I still keep her as the main wife is just to let her stabilize the saint's heart in Chang'an. If it weren't for that, do you think she would still be alive until now? In my heart, she would have died a long time ago!" An Lushan sneered, the cold glint in his eyes palpitating. After finishing speaking, when he turned to Duan's family, he had a tender look on his face again, "Now this identity has indeed wronged you." But don't worry, if you endure a little longer, I will give you a true name. Even if she can't be a wife for a while, at least she won't bow her head when she stands with his wife surnamed Cui in the future. ”

Hearing his reply, a trace of disappointment flashed in Duan's eyes. However, she hid this affection very well, and leaned softly in his arms: "What do you say can you have this real name? When the time comes, will the lady surnamed Cui really not dare to sneer at me anymore?" I don't believe it!"

"What's not to believe? Just wait and see, within a year, I'll let you raise your eyebrows in front of her!" An Lushan patted his chest and said.

"Then you tell me, what is your real name?You tell me first, say it~" Duan's entanglement was endless.

With the warm fragrant nephrite in her arms, surrounded by the sound of warblers and swallows, An Lushan couldn't enjoy it, so he pinched her chin and said, "Mrs. Guo, what do you think?"

————

Today's banquet in the Jiedu Embassy can be said to have been ruined by Cui Pu. Wang Qi's face was naturally good, and he couldn't see where he went.

After the guests dispersed, he beckoned to Cui Pu: "You come with me." ”

Cui Pu followed him into the study, and then bowed down to him and gave him a long look: "Thank you for helping us out of the siege today." ”

"Do you know that you have overdone?" Wang Qi slapped the table angrily, "A little thorn in the history is so bullish that he doesn't even pay attention to the festival envoy." When others whisper to you, the more domineering you become. If they hadn't taken a step back, I'd see how you ended up today!"

"Since they have asked for me, how can they not take the initiative to seek peace? And they do this more to show the concubine over there in Chang'an. The more I bullied them, the more they would be able to go to the concubine and sell miserably, and the more benefits they would get. It's a win-win situation, and it's no wonder that they don't cooperate. Cui Pu said indifferently.

Wang Qi couldn't get angry.

Since he knew very well in his heart, and had expected what the outcome would be, what else did he have to say? Originally, he wanted to seize the opportunity to remind him before leaving, but now he found that there was no need at all. Even, he was aroused by Cui Pu's words - since he has chosen this presumptuous path, let him continue to be presumptuous. In fact, he also wants to see how presumptuous this kid can go!

"That's it, let the matter be put aside for the time being! What I'm going to ask you about now, do you have an idea in mind?" Wang Qi stroked his beard, and then asked about the matter again.

Speaking of business, Cui Pu also entered a serious state. "Yes, yes, but it's not quite complete. Now that we are short on hand, we have to take our time. ”

"It's best to take your time, step by step. Wang Qi said, "However, since you are in Liangzhou, I think you still have to focus on the military camp here in Liangzhou first, what do you think?"

As soon as these words came out, the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

Cui Pu nodded hurriedly: "That's nature." Xiaguan is the assassin of Liangzhou, so he naturally hopes that his station will become strong first. As for the rest of the world, they'll hold back for now!"

And those places under An Lushan must be standing at the end of the team.

Hearing the laughter coming from the study, Zhan Sima's face became very ugly.

"Zhan Sima, the Jiedu envoy should not be free now, why don't you go and sit down and have a cup of hot tea?"

"Forget it, I think the festival will make it impossible to talk to the assassin for a while. I'd better come back another day!" Zhan Sima shook his head, turned around and walked away.

————

An Lushan is also a festival envoy, and he was so subtly beaten by Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao, no matter how honest he pretended to be, he couldn't take the initiative to come to them with a cheeky face.

So they spent another night in Liangzhou, and the next day they turned back.

After fifteen, even though the weather was still so cold that people shivered, the yamen still opened the seal as usual.

Then, good news came from Mo Nan one after another - after the holiday, the soldiers of Shan Yu Protectorate and Anbei Protectorate took advantage of the Turks' unpreparedness to raid them several times, beat them to the desert and fled, and suddenly retreated into the hinterland of the grassland for more than 50 miles. Then a large number of prisoners of war, war horses and other supplies were captured.

As soon as the New Year arrived, the border war got off to a good start, which is really exciting news.

Then, a rumor gradually spread in private, saying that these soldiers have suddenly become brave and good at fighting recently, in addition to the deputy capital protector of the two prefectures and the Shuofang Jiedu to make Wang Sizhong well-led, the more important reason is that their military doctor got a secret recipe a year ago, which can ensure that the soldiers will not be frozen in the icy and snowy environment, which ensures everyone's combat effectiveness to the greatest extent. In addition, just after the New Year, everyone was well fed and warmly dressed, but the Turkic side was hungry and tired, so the victory in the battle was conceivable.

And just as the rumors spread, Wang Sizhong ordered the people to send two carts of generous gifts to the Liangzhou Assassin's Mansion with great fanfare—both of which consisted of booty seized from the Turks.

So, in the following days, the Assassin's Mansion came to the court, and there was an endless stream of generals who came to ask for help.
