The autumn wind is cool and the lonely moon hangs high.
After visiting Shi Siming, the second in command of Fanyang, he returned to his residence to rest. However, this communication did not make him feel at ease. After untied his clothes, Lu Ji lay on his back on the bed thinking about what happened after he came to Fanyang City.
.
All of this is very strange!
Now, November has passed, and if this continues, it will be delayed until the end of the year!
As the imperial envoy sent by His Majesty the Emperor, he deserves warm reception from An Lushan, the governor of Fanyang. Since An Lushan sent his confidant to lead him to his residence, he has completely hung him up and refused to give him any advice.
An opportunity to promulgate yourself.
It would have been fine if he came to Fanyang for personal reasons this time, but he was responsible for the emperor's decree. That guy An Lushan is so arrogant that he dared not to accept the order! There are only two types of people in the world who dare to face the secular world rights like this.
The biggest one is a madman, and the other is a fearless person.
Of course, An Lushan is not a lunatic, so he can only be the latter.
Could it be that he really rebelled? If so, it would be better to find an opportunity to escape from Fan Yang. At worst, he would return to Chang'an and blame An Lushan for all the crimes. I believe His Majesty the Emperor would not investigate it in depth.
Lu Ji became more and more annoyed the more he thought about it. He pulled the cun to cover his head, turned over and fell asleep.
That night, I was speechless
The next morning, just dawn, Lu Zhao, the guard guard, made the hot water for washing and called his master.
Lu Ji was in a serious mind, how could he sleep well? At this moment, he barely sat up while rubbing his sleepy eyes, feeling headaches and dizzy eyes, and his muscles and bones were sore.
"When will it take?" Lu Ji pulled the cloth towel soaked in warm water, woke up his face, and asked softly.
Lu Zhao was very respectful to his master. He bowed his hand and said slightly, "Report to Master, it's already Chen Shi."
Lu Ji frowned when he heard this, and said unhappyly: "It's Chen Shi? Why didn't you call me earlier? Didn't you call me by Mao Shi?"
When Lu Zhao heard this, he knelt down and said, "Master, I see that you are so sleepy that you are so tired that you can't bear to call you. It's all my fault. If you want to punish me, please punish me severely."
Lu Ji was not really trying to vent his anger on Lu Zhao, so he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, has anyone come to me when I was sleeping?"
The guard guard Lu Zhao thought for a while and said, "There is a truth. General Tian, whom you are friends with, came about the hour of Yin, but maybe he saw that I turned off the lamp and did not enter the door. Later, when it was almost time for Mao, there was another one.
An unknown general came to lock the door."
When Lu Ji heard this, he was confused and said, "Didn't you invite them in?"
Lu Zhao said: "Master, you don't know that they are all generals of the fourth and fifth ranks. I am just a guard, so how can I make a living?"
"Well, there's some reason." After responding softly, Lu Ji continued: "But why did they come to me at this moment?"
It’s not a big deal to Lu Ji for being suspicious. After all, at this time, no one in the Youyan land would risk being suspicious by An Lushan to take the initiative to make friends with him, the imperial envoy of the court.
Just as Lu Ji was hesitating, the door suddenly rang.
"Dongdongdongdong, dudongdongdongdong!"
Lu Ji's heart suddenly hangs in his throat, and he walks to the door step by step with the help of Lu Zhao, a guard.
"Cruff!" With a slight sound, the carved wooden door opened, and a strange face appeared in front of Lu Ji.
"Are you an imperial envoy of the court and Lord Lu, the Minister of Rites?" The other party hugged Lu Ji, but there was no trace of respect between his eyebrows.
If it were normal, when he met such an ignorant person, Lu Ji had already smashed it out with an old punch. But now he had to look at An Lushan's eyes, how dare he be arrogant and strong again?
"Haha, that's Lu Ji. I wonder if this hero has a great name?" Lu Ji Qing stroked his beard and said with a deep smile.
"Oh, I can't be treated!" The man pushed his hand and said, "I am the personal soldier of Grandmaster An. I am here to inform you that Grandmaster is coming to see you."
He said this very arrogantly and did not give Lu Ji a chance to make a choice at all. However, Lu Ji said disrespectfully: "Oh, Marshal An is coming to see me? I don't know when or where? I will finish washing up a little
Go with the hero.”
"No need! Our Grandmaster didn't ask you to be a rabbit guy to pick up customers. What's the use of dressing up in a neat way? Let me do it now!" (Note 1)
After saying that, the personal soldier ignored Lu Ji's feelings and dragged the imperial envoy out of the hall.
With wide arms and round waist, a beard, a pair of phoenix eyes, and two mouths attract wind ears. This is Lu Ji's first impression of An Lushan, the governor of Pinglu, Fanyang and Hedong towns.
To be honest, such an image often gives people a feeling of being honest and honest, but this person who seems to be honest and honest now has caused trouble in the Tang Dynasty!
Even His Majesty, who had always been extremely favored by An Lushan, became suspicious of him and was anxious to call him back to Beijing to "report his duties".
The matter has reached its current point, of course, it has something to do with An Lushan's big tree attracting wind, but more of it is because he does not know how to restrain himself and uses public interest.
Of course, Lu Ji would never dare to say these words to An Lushan. In fact, since he entered An Lushan's study, he kept holding his breath and waiting for An Lushan to speak first. He had been in the officialdom for many years.
Old man, Lu Ji still has some basic communication skills. In the officialdom, some things often don’t work, and seemingly complex problems can be solved with just a little twist.
This is generally what we mean by saving the country through curves.
The more you want to accomplish something, the more you need to show an indifferent attitude so that you can take the greatest initiative.
As expected, An Lushan spoke first.
"The Imperial Commander has been waiting for a long time. Xiao Wang is really busy with military affairs, otherwise he would not dare to neglect the Imperial Commander like this!" An Lushan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and squeezed out his signature smile, but he
The cheeks are covered with flesh, so it is so hypocritical to smile like this.
Lu Ji was slightly stunned and said, "Where is the county prince? The county prince is busy with military affairs. Everyone in the world knows that it is okay if you are a little helpless."
He really didn't expect that An Lushan would take out his status as a prince to suppress him, so the weight of his imperial envoy would be much smaller. This kind of psychological warfare is common in the officialdom, but it is used for the imperial envoy.
It is enough to show An Lushan's courage.
"Mr. Lu is worthy of being the imperial envoy who came out of Chang'an City. I really admire this measure!"
An Lushan said softly with his head
