After returning to the door three days, today's prime minister's mansion was decorated with lights and colorful colors. When Tang Li and Li Tengjiao arrived, there were a lot of men wearing pink hairpins and women wearing five-color skirts waiting outside the prime minister's mansion.

Li Linjiangfu had many descendants. Except for those who were released as officials, all the sons who stayed in Beijing came out to greet him. Their wives and Li Tengjiao's legitimate sisters were the origin of the group of female relatives in front of the mansion.

When returning to the door, it was destined to be the world of women. As soon as Li Tengjiao got off the car, the numerous sisters-in-law and sisters gathered up and pulled her to tell her a long story. While the women were giggling and laughing, Tang Li was greeted by a group of brother-in-law and brother-in-law, and there was a single word of idleness.

As recorded in history books, Li Linfu, who was too strong, took advantage of all his intelligence, so that among his many sons, there was no one particularly outstanding. He only knew how to travel on the street and visit prostitutes and have fun all day long. At this time, they gathered together and said the most. The three words Pingkangfang were still the ones.

After nearly three incense sticks were noisy in front of the mansion, Tang Li and Li Tengjiao were hugged into the inner house like stars and moon. At that time, Li Linfu and his wife were already dressed in a good manner, which was inevitable.

After the ceremony, he then ate back to the door to drink. There were no outside guests. Just because of the Li clan, the clan of Li, he put the huge land of the prime minister's mansion into the main hall and the flower hall, and the toilet hall was full.

Like this kind of wine for the new son-in-law, it was the bride's brothers and sisters who were making fun of it. So after Li Linfu said a few words about marriage as a humane morality after the banquet, he left the table.

As soon as Li Linfu left, the young men were sitting upright at the meal and suddenly became alive. They shouted loudly for a moment, urging back and forth to drink, which was really lively.

After trying hard to support it for more than half an hour, Tang Li, who was slightly drunk, whispered a few words to Li Tengjiao before taking the opportunity to leave the table, slipped out of the main hall and looked for Li Linfu.

"The master is meeting guests in the study. Son-in-law, please come here!" As a servant in green, Tang Li looked at the path, and it was clearly the study he had visited twice before.

"Come in!" Li Linfu's faint voice came out. Tang Li clasped his clothes and pushed the door open and walked in.

In the study, there were two other people, except Li Linfu, one of whom was fifty years old, and the appearance and expression on Qinghuang's face and eyebrows were similar to Tang Li's father-in-law; the other one was younger, and he was only about forty people. He sat upright in the middle of a stool. From the wings on his head to the slight shiny single-wire basket shirt on his body, to the lambskin felt boots under his feet. In short, every piece of clothing and utensils on his body was meticulous and exquisite.

Seeing Tang Li enter the study, Li Linfu's originally calm face showed a smile. Before he could greet him, he waved himself first, pointed to the middle-aged man with exquisite clothes and said, "A Li, this is the former Censor, the new Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Wang? Lord Wang, you have seen it first."

Tang Li has been famous for this name for Wang?, but at this time, he only showed no expression on his face, bowed and said, "I have met Lord Wang!"

This king's expression was originally unrestrained. Only when Li Linfu mentioned the eight characters of "the new minister of the Ministry of Revenue in the imperial court", a fleeting surprise appeared in his eyes. Then he stood up and bowed to Tang Li. After saying, "A good son-in-law and a good son-in-law", he sat down again.

Seeing this, Li Linfu smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Wang has always been calm. Everyone he sees is like this. Ali will know in the future." After saying this explanation, he pointed to another person and said, "This is my fifth brother, and the current Minister of War Li Fudao, Lord Li. He gave birth to seven sons but none of his daughters. He has always loved Jiaoer the most. You have seen it!"

"This is the first hardcore Li Party." Hearing the three words Li Fudao, Tang Li said to himself, bowing to the current Minister of War who had been smiling and looked at him: "I have met Uncle Wu!"

"A few days ago, although I went out of Beijing with Lord Wang, my nephew's name has long been heard. Lao He personally ordered the tribute student, Princess Yuzhen, and the top talent. Although I have never seen your "Tang Poetry Review", I heard that even Li Taibai is a madman! Especially this talent is rare, it is really rare. Tengjiao can marry you to someone you can trust!" Unlike the reserve, Li Fudao has been staring at him since Tang Li entered the door, and then nodded with a smile. At this time, he did not pretend to be a false appearance. After standing up and saying these praises, he finally continued with a smile: "I, the fifth uncle, failed to attend the wedding ceremony of your Jiaoer, and I am really ashamed, but my nephew can rest assured that the gift should be given to him will be added later, and you will definitely be indispensable!"

As soon as his last sentence came out, it immediately caused laughter in the study. Tang Li was about to speak, but Li Linfu waved his hand and said, "The important thing is, don't say much about these false words. But Li, come and serve tea."

After Li Linfu said a word, Li Fudao smiled and patted Tang Li on the shoulder before returning to his seat. There was no maid in the study. Tang Li was half a master holding a tea cup to serve tea, and heard the king holding his hair holding his hair and said slowly: "The former husband Li Shizhi has died after taking medicine; Wei Jian, the brother of the deposed crown princess, was also sentenced to death on the way to the county of Linliu. His nephew Li Yun was scared out of fear. A few days ago, he condemned his family to send letters, and he was full of words. This man is a pussy and cannot help, so it is okay to let him go. On the contrary, the son-in-law of Wei Thief Lu Youlin is not easy to deal with. As a legitimate child of the Lu family in Fanyang, the family power cannot be underestimated. The officials dare not be self-disciplined. Should the Censorate continue to submit a letter to his Majesty to give the death edict, and ask the Duke to decide."

"Yeah! So what about others?" While asking casually, Li Linfu's eyes fell on Tang Li who was serving tea, intentionally or unintentionally.

"This time, the Censorate specializes in handling this case. The initiator of Wei Zichun and his prince Yuyi Praise Shan Du Youlin, and the writers Lang Wang Zeng, Liu Ji and others have died in prison. Yang Shenjin, the Minister of Revenue, and his brother Shaofu Shaoshenyu, and the Luoyang Order Yang Shenming has also been sentenced to death in prison. As for other Wei family, those involved in the crimes of cliques are now imprisoned. As for the local area, except for Li Hu, the envoy of the North Sea, Pei Dun, the envoy of the Zhechuan, are given the envoy of Pei Dun.

In addition to Wang Zeng and Liu Ji were killed by war, the focus of the inspection of the Censorate on this case was on Jiangnan West Road and Huainan Road. At present, the eight Censors of the Censorate have accumulated five of them. In short, after this incident, although the prince was lucky enough to cut off his tail and survive, his forces in the court and local areas have been cleaned up. Let's take a slow plan to avoid worrying about the change of the position of the crown prince." At this point, Wang's joy in his words stopped and hesitated: "Just..."

This prison that Li Linfu rose to shake the position of crown prince has been recorded in many future generations. In addition to the accident, Tang Li became the fuse of the incident. He was not unfamiliar with the prison that lasted for four or five years, and it was not until Li Linfu died, implicating nearly 400 officials, causing the Wei family in Jingzhao to be depressed. Therefore, when he heard people in the room discussing this matter, his face was still as calm as before.

He stared at Tang Li for a long time. Seeing him listening to Wang? His expression remained unchanged when he said this. Even the tea cup in his hand poured towards the water column in the cup. Li Linfu showed a slight undetectable smile on the corner of his lips. He turned his head to the Wang, saying, "It's just what?"

Wang? gently stroked the beard under the jaw, which was not messy and said, "What the lower officials don't understand is that the prince has always been cowardly and has no opinion. Why did he suddenly become smart this time? He can use such a trick of "cutting his tail to survive" and failing to do his best to make the prime minister's careful arrangements?" At this point, he pondered slightly and then said, "The prime minister had an incident of leaking the test paper that day, and he used Wei Zichun to hook up with Wei Jian. In fact, His Majesty also did not believe it at that time, otherwise the disposal of the edict would not have been delayed. If it were not for Wei Jian's interest, he would have been in the moment with Hexi, Longyoujie.

The envoy Huangfu Weiming had violated Your Majesty's taboo, but we were afraid that we would not achieve such a result this time. Then things went very smoothly. The prime minister's memorial to express Wei Jian's intention to collude with the border commander Huangfu Weiming to rebel with the prince's rebellion finally prompted Your Majesty to make a decision. Wei Jian dismissed the Minister of Justice, and Wei's family in Jingzhao was also purged. Huangfu Weiming was also exempted from the position of Jiedu for the crime of "discriminating the monarch and ministers" and lost his family. At this point, the prince was no longer able to escape. It was strange that he not only retreated without his own body, but also retreated so cleanly. "

"Not bad!", listen to the king? When he said this, Li Fudao, who was sitting next to him, continued: "Wei Jian was convicted by His Majesty that day. His brother Wei Lan and Wei Zhi submitted a coward to make an appeal for his brother. In this sentence, the two brothers also cited the prince to testify in order to achieve their goals. But what was surprising to the court officials was that Li Xiang, who had always been cowardly and gentle, did not hesitate at all. He immediately went to the front of His Majesty Xingqing Palace to cry bitterly, and even denied that he had any involvement with the Wei family. He immediately asked His Majesty to abolish the Crown Princess Wei Jian's sister in the name of "discord". His "not abolishing the law by his relatives" behavior really played a role, and he actually chose a place to clean himself. If the elephant thing happened to others, it would be easy to understand, but it was too strange for the prince... it was really strange."

In the nine astronomy in front of him, who knew that the cowardly and unscrupulous prey suddenly changed into a person, and even used the decisive trick of "cutting off the tail to survive" to escape safely at the last moment. It is also conceivable that Li Linfu felt unwilling to do so.

But after all, he has been a figure who has been in the officialdom for more than ten years and has held great power in the world for a moment. After a moment of silence, he immediately regained the usual smile on his face and said, "Li Xiang, a cowardly child, suddenly acted so cruelly. It must be because of the guidance of a master. This matter must be clearly investigated. However, although he escaped for a while, his wings have been removed and he has also attracted his gaze. Now he cannot even stay in the Eastern Palace and is constantly being held by His Majesty. His position as a prince is no longer stable, and there is still a lot of potential for things to come. You two don't have to be discouraged."

After saying these words that should not be underestimated but not feared the enemy, Li Linfu turned around again. "Read again, how is Huangfu Weiming like?"

Speaking of Huangfu Weiming, Li Fudao laughed and said, "Fifteen days ago, Your Majesty's edict was circulated quickly by 800 miles of the Ministry of War. Yesterday, the reply from the Ministry of War was spread. Huangfu Weiming had already cut himself off from Guizhou."

"What a pity!" Li Linfu said with regret: "Although Huangfu was born in the Eastern Palace, I am a rare general in my dynasty. I have always been very concerned about him. On that day, Your Majesty intends to promote him to Hexi and Longyou Jiedu. The original minister is also strongly supported! Unfortunately, this person is not worried about his old kindness. When he returned to Beijing to meet the saint, he dared to slander me, intending to shake his position. Even if I cherish his talents, I can't keep him."

"There are many ungrateful people in this world, and the third brother is not worthy of doing this for him. However, today An Huer submitted two copies to the department, one for asking for merit for his subordinates, and the other for asking for help from the Hebei Road Horse Supervisor. This matter requires the third brother to make an idea."

Speaking of An Lushan, Li Linfu had not spoken yet. Wang? He smiled and continued: "This An Huer has a very big appetite. It was only a few days since the last time he requested the reward, and the second book came quickly. This guy just wanted to reunite the barbarians under his command. He regarded the official lords of the court as something!"

"Wu'er! It's reasonable to act recklessly." Originally, he pursed his lips and turned into a loud voice and laughed. Li Linfu knocked on the book and continued: "Although this dynasty set up ten military governors, those who have heavy troops are only Jiannan, Longyou, and Hebei. Jiannan is the hometown of Yang Fei in the palace. Huangfu Weiming of Longyou was originally the crown prince's greatest support in the army. Hebei Road is the only one who is most respectful to the Political Affairs Hall. Although Anhu'er is rude and domineering, he is still obedient after all. This person has a high prestige among all tribes in Hebei. We should not be too wronged. Let's discuss a charter when this matter will be eaten tomorrow."

Seeing Li Linfu watching Tang Li sitting quietly on the side, Wang and the two knew that there was something to say between their father-in-law and son-in-law, they stopped saying anything and stood up to say goodbye. However, when Li Fudao was about to leave, he repeatedly told Tang Li to sit in his mansion another day.

After sending the king and the other two to the door of the study, Li Linfu turned around, smiled and waved at Tang Liluo, saying, "Just sit there, just say it! What's the matter if you are so anxious to find me today?"

After hearing what he said just now, Tang Li realized that An Lushan was actually Li Linfu's main supporter and object of support in the army. But thinking about it, his father-in-law had been in charge of government affairs for more than ten years, especially after Xuanzong was idle in the late Kaiyuan period, almost none of his memorials were rejected. It was during this period that An Lushan completed his comet-like rise process. It was certainly one aspect to please His Majesty, but without the approval of the Chief Secretary of the Political Affairs Hall, it would be impossible to accomplish.

What made him even more depressed was that facts proved that An Lushan was indeed grateful to Li Linfu himself. Not to mention that during Li Linfu's lifetime, this domineering border general always obeyed him. After his death, An Lushan raised an army to rebel and occupied the eastern capital Luoyang, and then made a statement for Li Linfu's temple. This matter is enough to be used as a proof.

After pondering for a while, Tang Li got up and picked up the tea cup and poured a tea cup for Li Linfu. When the water in the cup was half full, he smiled and said, "I came here today to ask the court about my appointment arrangements, but after hearing what my father-in-law, the fifth uncle and the Lord Wang said, there were a few words like bones in his throat, and he wouldn't vomit."

"Oh!", watching the thin water droplets slowly fill the teacup, Li Linfu said with interest with a smile: "But it's okay."

Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Tang Li did not sit back, and stood before Li Linfu's desk. He looked at his eyes and said slowly: "A man An Lushan must be guarded, and he must be careful when using it!"

Zhan Mei stared at Tang Li for a moment. Although Li Linfu did not speak, his expression clearly signaled him to continue speaking.

"An Lushan was born in the Lite Jiuhu people and was originally an authentic Hebei Taoist clan. Since joining the army, he has never left Hebei Road for a half-step. In the past ten years, the court has been very generous to him. A small general who captured the cavalry now became the general of the cavalry, the governor of Youzhou and Pinglu towns, holding more than 100,000 powerful soldiers. This is fine, especially concern. He also served as the interview envoy of Hebei Dao. With this position, An Lushan can directly intervene in the appointment of civil servants of Hebei Dao. Civil and military military and civilians are controlled by him. Who can now match the checks and balances with him? The situation is so dangerous. As the prime minister of this dynasty, his father-in-law must be guarded against the safety of the world!"

Who knew that Li Linfu had no strange expression after hearing these words, but he still smiled slightly, "The general of the country is stationed in a town. The court should not be suspicious; in addition, although An Lushan is a little domineering, he has always followed the imperial edicts of the court, and Ali has been worried too much."

"It is really hard to reassure the safety of a country to the loyalty of a minister and a general. The number of elite troops of our dynasty is directly under the command of An Lushan. If the person is loyal, it is the best, but if a day suddenly becomes a strange heart and is indifferent, how should the court respond? Furthermore, the word "loyalty" is the most untouchable thing in the world. The person is loyal now, and may not always be loyal in the future. The soldiers are indefinitely in power, and the water is indefinitely in shape. Although this is true in this world, all things in the world, and even people's hearts are not the same? Imagine the end of the Han Dynasty. When Cao Cao first became an official as the ruling of Luoyang, he might not have been in a loyal minister. He never thought of rebelling?" What was strange was that he said this. Li Linfu was not angry, but he actually had an appreciation in his eyes when he looked at him. At this time, Tang Li didn't care much and continued directly

The words said: "The right to balance is like a mountain torrent that will break out when there will be no sign of a sudden. Moreover, An Lushan may not be as loyal as his father-in-law thought. According to the son-in-law, he has been guarding Hebei for a long time and is domineering in the local area. He looks directly at the people of Hebei like their own private property, interferes in the appointment of local officials, and uses all means to expand his military power. With the help of His Majesty and the Political Affairs Hall, he blindly promotes subordinates and rewards to win over the morale of the army. It is fine, but more importantly, he recruits new soldiers from the Xi, Khitan and other tribes, and builds a group of up to 8,000 people based on this, and is absolutely loyal to his own "fake army". An Lushan's behavior is really difficult for people to associate it with the word "loyalty."

Hearing Tang Li's jokingly speaking, although Li Linfu did not show his face, he was extremely happy. As a powerful prime minister, how could he not know what Tang Li said just now? But he had a certain idea about An Lushan's arrangement. And the prime minister was happy that his new son-in-law showed his talent in his words just now.

After more than ten years of military and national affairs, especially as he is growing older this year, Li Linfu's biggest regret and heart disease is that he has no successors. Although he has many descendants, after many years, he has mostly mediocre talents and cannot be of great use.

After years of governance and decisive behavior, Li Linfu firmly controlled the power of the people. At the same time, he knew that there were too many people he had offended. This can be seen from his frequent bedding places every night, even if his close family members did not know where they live. Now he has pushed the prince to defeat him, and even started a prison. These behaviors are nothing more than planning for the back of his life. But he also knows that these plans are passive and negative, and he can still suppress them even if he dies in the future, but no one in the Li clan can lead the clan to protect his clan and resist the counterattack of his former political enemies.

In history, countless families that were once prominent have declined rapidly because of their mediocre successors; there are also many families that were originally declining prospered because of one person. How could Li Linfu, who had been in charge of the world for more than ten years, not know about this?

He originally thought that Tang Li was just a talented scholar, but it was these words that made him realize that Tang Li's talent might not only be based on his words.

"Maybe..." Li Linfu, who was pondering silently, tapped the rhythm of the book and became more and more relaxed.

"I will condemn others what you said just now. If it is true, I will never tolerate it." He stood up slowly. Li Linfu walked to Tang Li, patted his arm lightly, and said with a smile: "Ali just married, so he should be more concerned about Jiao'er. Regarding your arrangement for official career, if you are not surprised, according to Your Majesty's wish, he should be a job as a Lei Chen under Taisheng Mansion."

It was obvious that Li Linfu was in a perfunctory tone for what he said about An Lushan, and Tang Li couldn't help but feel disappointed on his face.

This disappointed expression fell in Li Linfu's eyes. He also said that he was not satisfied with his appointment. He chuckled: "The custom of the country, the new Jinshi is only at the top of the eighth rank, but Taile minister is a seventh-rank upper-rank rank. It is not bad for the official rank." While speaking, he patted Tang Li's shoulder and said: "The emperor and Yang Fei are both good at music and singing and dancing. Your Majesty once personally selected 300 people from the north of the Liyuan Palace in the north of the Xueqing Palace. As the Taile minister in charge of the palace, Ali, you are almost always with the emperor. The Jinshi is promoted quickly. With this, Ali's future is limitless, so why should he be so frustrated?"

"This time, An Lushan's presentation, the father-in-law must not give it to you, especially the Hebei Road Horse Herdering Supervision, which must be under the control of the court and must not delegate power! If An Hu'er can control the war horses at will, it will be in chaos in the future and the consequences will be unimaginable." He did not interfere with the matter of official appointments at all, and looked at Li Linfu, and Tang Li said with an extremely serious expression on his face.

Seeing that Tang Li was still entangled here, Li Linfu suddenly changed his expression.

His eyes met Li Linfu's gaze, and Tang Li's firm eyes did not dodge at all.

After looking at each other for half a cup of tea, Li Linfu relaxed and smiled and said, "Okay, I agree with you! Your child is like me when I was young. Okay, you have been out for a while, and Jiao'er should be anxious. Let's go now! Besides, this period is the time for your wedding, so it's better to put less worries in the government. Miss Zheng's family should also come to Beijing! You should also pay more attention to this marriage. I heard that Wang Mojie had visited you, which is a good thing! The new top scholar, so of course we should have more contact with the children of aristocratic families. I still have some tips to see, so I won't send you to you, so you can go!"

He watched Tang Li's robe with his sleeves floating out of the remote area where the study room was, and returned to the front of the book table, Li Linfu, who was sitting with one hand, put his forehead on his face for a moment, fell into deep thought.

As he looked towards the main hall of the front yard, listening to the vague noise, Tang Li looked back at the study room covered by flower walls, and then walked straight forward again...


Chapter completed!
