After two days of anxious waiting, early that day, the eunuch came to Xuan Li 9 Prefecture to meet the palace.

1. Yang Guozhong was also here to go with him.

The two of them rode in a carriage. Because they both knew what the trip was for, no one spoke first, and the atmosphere was a little silent.

After a while, Li 9zhou spoke and asked Yang Guozhong with a smile: "Yang Xiang thought that what he heard would be good or bad news when he entered the palace this time?"

Yang Guozhong shook his head: "I don't know how An Lushan will respond, it's best to be able to return to Beijing honestly."

"I'm afraid it's not that easy." Li 9zhou sighed softly. He could already guess a lot. Since An Lushan ignored the emperor's orders at the New Year's Eve, he secretly returned to Fanyang and wanted to call him back.

But it's not that easy.

"Hasn't Li Qing always been a literary and military man? Now he is in charge of Shuofang and stands alone. If he really fights, he should be able to compete with An Lushan." Yang Guozhong asked.

Yang Guozhong is not good at fighting. He is good at talking, so he is very worried at this time that he can't handle it if he really fights, so he still has to rely on Li 9zhou.

"I may be able to fight him." Li 9zhou was not humble, and then turned his breath and said, "But it will take time to mobilize the Shuofang army. If An Lushan suddenly raises an army, I cannot lead the army for the first time

Those who arrived at the front line were afraid that when I was ready, he had already come here."

Yang Guozhong was panicked when he heard this and hurriedly comforted himself: "These are all our guesses. When we get to the palace, we will naturally know what's going on."

While talking, the carriage had arrived outside the palace. After parking the car, the two walked to the first round, and they had nothing to say, so they came directly into the imperial study room.

The emperor waited inside early, with a sad face.

The two of them saluted and saw his expression, and they guessed that it was not a good thing, but as ministers, they naturally had to ask one question.

Yang Guozhong spoke first: "But An Lushan has already replied to the imperial edict?"

The emperor nodded and said, "Not only did he reply to me, he also said a lot in the book."

Yang Guozhong hurriedly asked, "What did he say to make the saint so worried?"

The emperor did not answer him directly, but ordered people to summon Zhang Wenyan to send the imperial edict.

After a moment, Zhang Wenyan came in and saluted several people first.

"Tell them, how did An Lushan respond." The emperor glanced at Zhang Wenyan.

"The governor An Jie was injured because he quelled the previous civil strife in the army, and fell ill again because of the severe cold weather. He was unable to come to Beijing to receive the order."

After hearing Zhang Wenyan's words, Li 9zhou and Yang Guozhong were both shocked.

Li 9zhou was surprised because he knew that An Lushan was about to raise an army.

Yang Guozhong was surprised that An Lushan dared to resist the order and refused to obey the order. He did not know whether the injury or illness was true or false. If it was true, it would be great. If it was false, it would be against the order.

So he asked Zhang Wenyan: "Did you see him with your own eyes?"

Zhang Wenyan nodded and said, "I did see An Lushan lying in bed, unable to speak much, and he was injured on his body. He didn't look fake, but..." He said this but stopped talking.

"It's just something? Let's talk about it." Yang Guozhong said.

Zhang Wenyan looked up at the emperor and saw that the emperor nodded, then continued: "It's just that An Lushan is very cunning, and he is afraid that he is pretending to be a sick person and refuses to come."

The emperor, who had a calm expression on his face, suddenly became angry and rebuked: "No one is talking nonsense. I am a gift to him. Who in the world pretends to be sick and refuses to accept the gift."

Zhang Wenyan is quite upright and continued to say: "I see that An Lushan is arrogant and domineering in daily life. This time I went to Fanyang, and I saw his army preparing for military training. I am also worried that he would make a mistake."

"Doesn't Fan Yang's army be powerful? Isn't it just that my Tang Dynasty's national strength is strong?" The emperor was still angry, "You must not talk nonsense."

Li 9zhou was helpless and thought that the emperor was so generous to An Lushan.

"There is one more thing, I am just about to start the report." Zhang Wenyan said.

"Tell me." The emperor didn't even look at him.

"An Lushan's deputy in the capital, Ji Wen, the Minister of the Military Affairs Department and the Chief Minister, has left Chang'an and traveled 3400 miles a day to Fanyang."

"So what?" The emperor didn't seem to care about this, "Maybe Fan Yang has something important."

Zhang Wenyan said: "I'm afraid An Lushan really has the intention to rebel."

Previously, the court had enough of slandering and attacking An Lushan in the court, and also mentioned that An Lushan was treasonous, which completely angered the emperor and the anger broke out.

"An Qing is loyal to me. Why do you keep holding on and saying that he has the intention of rebellion? Is it because I am not good at employed people?"

When treating Zhang Wenyan, the emperor was not as tolerant as Li 9zhou. He was furious and ordered people to tie up Zhang Wenyan and send it to An Lushan.

The emperor was not ruthless this time, allowing the two powerful ministers of Yang Guozhong and Li 9zhou to plead for Zhang Wenyan.

Zhang Wenyan has been tied up, and Yang Guozhong is still chatting about begging him for love. The emperor is even more angry and said, "An Lushan also said in the book that because he is a foreigner and does not know Chinese characters, I will promote him more than you

The more I want to kill him.”

Yang Guozhong was shocked by his words.

After eased the gods, Yang Guozhong said: "I don't have such a thought."

The emperor did not give him any face: "I know that you don't have sex with him on weekdays, so it's okay for you to make a small fuss. I didn't expect you to kill him and deal with him in all kinds of ways."

"Save the wrath of a saint." Li 9zhou said next to him: "Yang Xiang is not that kind of person either."

The emperor looked at him with a slant, and said lightly: "Today I call you to talk about this, you can step down."

Since he already knew An Lushan’s reply, Li 9zhou also understood what An Lushan would do next.

On the way back, Yang Guozhong was still feeling a little scared. He thought about it and said to Li 9zhou: "Since An Lushan's eldest son is still in the capital, the saint gave him a marriage, I guess he will not rebel for the time being, and the tiger poison is still not eaten.

What about me?"

Li 9zhou shook his head straight: "An Lushan is even more poisonous than a tiger."

He knew very well that since An Lushan had already thought about treason, it was impossible for him to have too many concerns for his son. There were more people like this in history, such as Wu 3gui.

Then, he thought of something again and turned to ask Yang Guozhong: "Who is An Qingzong married?"

Yang Guozhong said hatefully: "Anqingzong married Princess Rongyi, the daughter of the royal family. Speaking of which, the saint is really good to An Lushan."
