Tibet

Although this defeat was expected, the entire team was very dissatisfied with the Falcons. If it weren't for his three serious mistakes, the opponent's score would probably have been only six. Coupled with their sharp counterattack, it would have been impossible to win in the end. must.

Falcon's face was full of shame and he cried: "I just learned about the death of my master today. I feel so sad that I act abnormally. I beg Gao Weng to forgive me!"

Gao Lishi shook his head and said: "The top five competitions are all duels between masters. Only the strength is high and low, and there can be no mistakes. In such an important competition, you actually lose control of your emotions and make mistakes again and again. It means that you are not ready for the next game." You don’t have to participate in the top five games.”

Gao Lishi originally wanted to train the Falcons to become his long-term team players, but the Falcons disappointed him so much that he could not bear it.

The Tianpeng polo team has no alternates, so Falcon does not have to participate in the game, which means he is expelled.

The Falcon was sad, bowed and left.

Gao Lishi said to Feng Quanong again: "Find another passer?"

Feng Quanong said quickly: "Tie Ma was fired by the Yang family. This person is very good. Does father agree to recruit him?"

"Okay! Just recruit him and let him play Falcon's position."

The next game is against the Longyou Polo Team two days later.

After the game, Li Ye went home directly. As soon as he left the polo field, he heard someone calling him.

"Forty-Eighthiro!"

Li Ye looked for the sound. He saw Wang Kuan waving to him and quickly urged his horse forward.

"Brother Wang, why are you here?"

Wang Kuan cupped his fists and said with a smile: "The Prime Minister asked me to wait for you here, and I will take you there after the game."

"Where is my grandfather?"

"It's An Ranju Restaurant in Guangzhaifang!"

Li Ye dismounted and got directly into the carriage. Wang Kuan took Li Ye's horse and the carriage turned around and drove towards Guangzhaifang in the north.

To the north of Guangzhaifang is Daming Palace and to the west is Taiji Palace. The square gate is opposite the Yanfu Gate of Daming Palace.

Guangzhaifang is close to Daming Palace. There are many restaurants and teahouses in Fangmen. The Li family's Anranju Restaurant also has a branch in Guangzhaifang.

Every day at noon, Li Linfu would come here to take a nap, have lunch, and rest for a while.

Anranju has become very popular recently. They have launched six famous dishes that are talked about in Chang'an, including fish-flavored shredded pork, twice-cooked pork, Kung Pao chicken, braised pork with pickled vegetables, mapo tofu and white pork with garlic paste.

Zhang Ping also accepted six apprentices, and each apprentice taught a dish. Each Anranju restaurant had a special dish. If he wanted to eat all six dishes at once, he could only go to the main restaurant in Pingkangfang.

Of course, the later dishes were not taught to Zhang Ping by Li Ye because he didn't have time, but by Aunt Mu. Zhang Ping had been a little fat boy since he was a child and was loved by Aunt Mu. After Aunt Mu learned six dishes, he didn't know how to cook them. Taught Zhang Ping without any secret.

The specialty dish of Guangzhaifang Anranju Restaurant is Mapo Tofu, which is Li Linfu’s favorite dish and he comes here to try it every day at noon.

Li Ye came to the restaurant and was led into a private room on the second floor, called Bai Yutang. It was Li Linfu's exclusive private room and was generally not open to the public.

When Li Ye walked into the room, he unexpectedly found that his father Li Dai and his sixteenth uncle Li Wei were also there. They were standing against the wall. His grandfather Li Linfu was sitting at a small table, eating lunch slowly.

Li Ye quickly stepped forward and knelt down to salute, "My grandson pays homage to my grandfather!"

Li Linfu said with a smile: "Come sit down and have lunch together!"

Li Ye glanced at his father and Uncle Sixteen who were standing next to him. Li Linfu waved to them and said, "You all go to eat!"

As soon as they were released, the two people quickly bowed and retreated.

Li Ye then sat down across the small table, and Li Linfu ordered another pair of bowls and chopsticks, as well as a few more dishes and a bowl of rice.

"How was the game?"

Li Ye smiled bitterly and said: "My skills are inferior to others, so I lost the game, six to eight."

"This score is not bad, not too bad. Previously, the Hexi Army Polo Team lost to the Fan Yangjun Polo Team 4-9. The main shooter of the Fan Yangjun Polo Team, Lang Ya, is a second-level golfer. His real name is Shi Siming. He is An Lushan’s confidant and the best archer in Fan Yang’s army.”

Li Ye nodded secretly, it turned out to be Lang Ya and Shi Siming.

At this time, the restaurant maid brought wine, food and a bowl of rice.

Li Linfu smiled and said, "Let's eat first! We'll talk about it after we finish the meal."

After lunch, the maid took away the plates and brought strong tea.

Li Linfu took a sip of tea and then said slowly: "I talked with the emperor yesterday afternoon, and the emperor agreed to my plan. In fact, it is your plan. I will modify it a little.

I was appointed as the envoy to observe the army, temporarily taking over the post of the military envoy of Shuofang, commanding an army of 70,000 to attack Abu Si. Guo Ziyi was promoted to the deputy envoy of Shuofang, and Cheng Qianli, the envoy of Beiting Jiedu, became the left and right deputy generals. Among them, Guo Ziyi was responsible for the frontal attack. Cheng Qianli was responsible for cutting off his retreat. "

"What arrangements will be made by Shuofang Jiedushi Zhang Qiqiu?"

"Zhang Qiqiu was transferred to stay in Tokyo. He was responsible for not observing the Absi rebellion this time, so he was demoted to Luoyang."

"My grandson is more concerned about whether Hehuang's 24,000 Shuofang troops will come to the north to help?"

"Of course, the reinforcements from the north will be led by the military envoy Pugu Huai'en. They will join the imperial army in Yuanzhou, and then the army will go north."

"Grandpa is going to Shuofang?"

Li Linfu shook his head, "I will only go to Yuanzhou. As you suggested, the emperor also agreed to put the logistics support in Yuanzhou. The emperor only gave me one month. It will take twenty days to go back and forth just to Yuanzhou. I am in Yuanzhou We can only stay for ten days at most, and the general who will lead the troops north is Deputy Marshal Guangping Wang Li Chu."

Speaking of this, Li Linfu said calmly: "Now you understand! The emperor only made me the commander in name, but he will not actually hand over the military power to me. The person who actually holds the military power must be the prince and grandson."

King Li Chu of Guangping is not bad, as long as it is not the eldest son Li Cong or Li Hao who leads the army.

"What about An Lushan?" Li Ye pondered and asked again.

Li Linfu sighed and said: "I thought about it for a long time the night before yesterday, and what you said makes sense. Once the foreigners collude with the Hebei Group, it will indeed be the end of the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Ye suggested: "In fact, you can rotate positions. For example, An Lushan will be appointed as the governor of Longyou, and Ge Shuhan will be in charge of Fan Yang. The key is not to stay in one place for a long time, which will easily create roots."

Li Linfu nodded, "Your suggestion is good, you can consider it!"

Li Ye said again: "Grandpa is going to Shuofang, can you take me with you?"

Li Linfu smiled slightly and said, "You want to go too?"

"My grandson is the captain of the Xuanjie School. Gao Lishi told me that I can choose any officer. Since I have the opportunity to fight, my grandson doesn't want to let it go!"

Li Linfu stroked his beard and said: "My grandson wants to establish himself in the military. His ambition is commendable. Grandpa fully supports your idea. Go back and tell your mother that we will set off for the expedition in five days!"

“Thank you Grandpa for your support!”

Li Linfu took out another counter ticket and handed it to Li Ye, "This is the 10,000 taels of silver the emperor has given you. Give it to your mother as well!"

At this time, Wang Kuan stepped forward and whispered a few words to Li Linfu. Li Linfu nodded, "Let him come in!"

He said calmly to Li Ye: "An Lushan asked to see me. Why do you think it is?"

Li Ye laughed, "I'm afraid he doesn't know that the emperor has already issued an order."

"You're right, he wants to be my lieutenant general."

After a moment, the tall and fat An Lushan walked quickly into the inner hall, clasped his fists and bowed in salute, "I'm going to serve as an official, An Lushan, to see the Prime Minister!"
