Yan Zhu and Dongfang Shuo entered the officialdom almost at the same time, and their methods were similar, but Yan Zhu's career was obviously smoother than Dongfang Shuo. Dongfang Shuo was a man who carried a big halberd outside Sima Gate. He only had a bag of grain and 240 coins a month, and he could not even have enough food. Yan Zhuo was already a junior doctor, with a rank of 2,000 stones. Not only could he have no worries about food and clothing, but he could also ride a red flag carriage. It was not possible to make plans.

Dongfang Shuo looked like a scoundrel in front of Liang Xiao, and he was robbed openly and secretly, and he did everything he could. Yan Zhu was quite majestic in front of Liang Xiao, not harshly, and even had some pickiness in his eyes.

"You are Liang Xiao?"

"Report to Master, it's Liang Xiao." Faced with Yan Zhu's suspicious eyes, Liang Xiao hurried forward to salute, not daring to make any rudeness.

"General Li is really relieved. He actually sent a young man who is not as strong as a young man."

Seeing that Yan Zhu was unhappy, Li Jiao mentioned Li Guang in words, and he hurriedly stepped forward to explain. "Sir, when you go to Kuaiji, you may face Liang Xiao's master. In the Weiyanglang office, only Liang Xiao is familiar with him. Sending Liang Xiao is also for the sake of the safety of the adults."

Yan Zhu's face cleared a little, and he didn't say anything else. He turned his head over and never looked at Liang Xiao again.

Li Jiao was a little unhappy and shouted softly: "Liang Xiao, let's go to the guide in front of the guide." As he said that, he shook the reins and urged the horse to rush forward. Liang Xiao did not dare to be negligent, so he activated the green horse and followed Li Jiao forward. The guide was walking at the front of the team, carrying the task of clearing the road and reconnaissance. The responsibility was second only to Yan Zhu's side and protecting his safety.

Langguan is a general term, and there are differences between them.

Like Liang Xiao, Li Jiao and others, they were guarding the palace gate and belonged to the lowest level of the palace gate. They had a rank of 200 stones and could only serve outside the palace gate. They were called Wailang, also known as Sanlang, and were under the jurisdiction of Weiwei and could not enter the palace.

When entering the palace, the person who works on duty outside the hall is called a doctor, with a rank of 300 stones. He is a middle-level Lang official, and is under the jurisdiction of the doctor.

The highest-level one is the Central Army who serves the emperor, with a rank of 600 stones. In addition to protecting, those people are more likely to provide advice to the emperor at any time, mostly scholars. Because they are close to the emperor, they have the most opportunities for promotion and the best future. Once they are sent out, they will at least be a county magistrate.

Yan Zhufeng traveled, in addition to the outer men like Liang Xiao, there were two doctors on duty in the palace, namely Wei Qing and Qin Ge who Liang Xiao knew. They stayed with Yan Zhu, and were both personal bodyguards and identity symbols. Liang Xiao and others could only be responsible for the vigilance of the periphery.

Although the guidance was hard, it could stay away from Yan Zhu. Li Jiao took Liang Xiao to be the guidance, obviously not wanting Yan Zhu to hear them speak.

"Yan Zhu is a wise man, and he can get an official with his lips." Li Jiaoyu was contemptuous. "Although these people were rich all the time, they had no confidence and looked down on me and other warriors. If you enter the officialdom in a minor, it is easy for people to become jealous and there will be some rumors. Don't take them to heart."

Liang Xiao tilted his head, looked at Li Jiao, and chuckled: "Thank you, Brother Li, reminder, I understand. I won't take those words seriously." He understood what Li Jiao meant. Li Dang's household registration was very tight and did not reveal the "Master of Pingyang". Li Jiao thought that he entered the officialdom because of Li Dang's recommendation and Li Guang's appreciation, so he regarded Yan Zhu's provocation to him as a provocation to the Li family.

However, there are probably many people who hold this view. There are many examples of minors entering the government in the Han Dynasty, but most of them were in the army or as minor officials in counties. It is absolutely a minority like him who became Weiyoung Lang at the age of 16. It is natural to be misunderstood and leave the Li family's way.

Liang Xiao did not explain. He could understand Yan Zhu's mood, not only did he despise Li Guang and other warriors, but he also had jealousy for him.

This kind of mentality is very strange. When facing Li Guang, who is famous all over the world for half his life, is now only a 2,000-Shiweiwei, Yan Shu can be very proud. However, when facing Liang Xiao, who is still underage, becomes Weiyoro because of the appreciation of the father and son of the Li family, can't suppress his jealousy. What makes Liang Xiao even more interesting is that Yan Shu not only does not intend to hide this mentality, but also expresses it clearly as soon as he meets.

I really don’t know if he should be straightforward or naive. However, such a person is definitely not only Yan Zhu, but Han people don’t seem to like to hide their likes and dislikes. Li Jiao is the same. As the chief of Weiyoro, he does not stay with Yan Zhu, but acts as a director, which is a statement of "I am very unhappy". Liang Xiao did not look back, but he probably won’t be in good mood or face.

Even Liu Ling could see this discomfort. Liu Ling was waiting outside the Bacheng Post Gate. When Li Jiao saw Liang Xiao and Li Jiao coming side by side, she smiled. She winked at Liang Xiao and waited for Yan Zhu's car to pass by her, she shouted, "Yan Jun, can you speak with one step?"

Yan Zhuo was sitting upright and staring straight, and saw Liu Ling's carriage and horses parked on the side of the road, he didn't pretend to be. Hearing Liu Ling's words, he patted Che Shi lightly, signaled the driver to stop the car, and turned his body slightly, bowed to Liu Ling.

"I don't know what advice is from the Lord of the Man. I have a mission to help and cannot stay for a long time. Please forgive me."

Liu Ling said with a smile: "Jun Yan was on an envoy under the emperor's order, so how dare Ling disturb him? I just wanted to ask if the envoy was willing to go with him. The journey was boring and wanted to accompany him and talk about poetry and essays. I wonder if it was possible?"

Yan Zhu smiled. "Being able to walk with the master and listen to the master discussing the great affairs of the world is also a pleasure in life. Help cannot be obtained. Master, please go first."

Liu Ling smiled. He invited Yan Zheng to her car. Yan Zhu agreed immediately and changed the car and took the same car with Liu Ling, chatting and laughing.

Liang Xiao was very strange. Doesn’t Yan Zhu know how to avoid suspicion? As the envoy of the emperor, he was walking in the same car with the Master of Huainan and chatting and laughing. Even he, an ordinary man, knew that it was inappropriate, so he had no taboos? This political emotional intelligence is really urgent.

Although he disagreed with Yan Zhu's approach, Liang Xiao was not qualified and had no interest in reminding Yan Zhu. He followed Li Jiao all the way forward, practicing riding skills while listening to Li Jiao explaining some routine regulations. The guarding the chapel gate and escorting the envoys were only part of their responsibilities. Once the emperor went on a patrol, they still had to follow him. There were many regulations here. Liang Xiao knew nothing and just took this opportunity to learn from Li Jiao, just like learning etiquette from Li Danghu.

The mission was urgent, and Liang Xiao and others rushed all the way, and they had to travel at least three (90 miles) a day, and sometimes even reached four or five (5 days). In less than twenty days, they arrived in Huainan Kingdom.

Liu An, the King of Huainan, personally went to the border to greet Yan Zhu. He was very enthusiastic about Yan Zhu. He connected Yan Zhu to Shouchun City and arranged it in the inn. He also held a banquet to welcome Yan Zhu and ask about the warmth. He was well-mannered.

Yan Zhu attended a banquet at the Huainan Prince's Mansion, and he was protected by Wei Qing and Qin Ge. Liang Xiao and other Wei Yanglang were not qualified to enter the hall and could only accompany him in the courtyard below the steps. Listening to Yan Zhu's talk in the hall, Liang Xiao shook his head secretly.

At this moment, Wu from the Huainan Prince's Mansion walked out with a wine glass and toasted Weiyoung Lang who was sitting in the courtyard. After toasting Li Jiao, Wu stood in front of Liang Xiao, raised his wine glass and smiled slightly.

"Mr. Liang, it's really not easy to invite you to the Huainan Prince's Mansion."
