Li Linfu asked calmly: "When will Mr. An come to Chang'an?"

"Back to the Prime Minister, I just arrived yesterday. Isn't this the top five game? I want to come and cheer up the team!"

After saying that, An Lushan took out a box and opened it. Inside was a piece of beautiful jade that was as warm as fat, about the size of a fist, with no flaws in its entire body. He respectfully presented it to Li Linfu.

"This is a beautiful jade brought back from the Khotan Kingdom in Anxi by a humble trustee, and dedicated to the Prime Minister!"

Li Linfu took the box and looked at it for a moment, nodded and put it aside, "Mr. An is interested!"

Li Linfu asked with a smile: "You must have met Mr. Gao just now, right?"

An Lushan said quickly: "Exactly!"

Li Linfu then said calmly: "What needs to be said, Gao Weng has already said it, so there is no need for me to repeat it. An Shijun should understand what I am talking about?"

An Lushan sighed secretly in his heart, but he was still a little unwilling to say: "Lushan is willing to be the eagle and dog of the Prime Minister, and hunt Tongluo for the Prime Minister's country!"

Li Linfu looked at him with a half-smile and said, "Isn't Shi Siming the wolf in today's competition?"

An Lushan's heart skipped a beat, how did Li Linfu know?

"This Shi Siming is not in good health and indeed did not come. Lang Ya is another general under the humble command, Cai Xide."

"Officials from Shengzhou sent a letter saying that a Tang army of 20,000 people appeared at Zhongshoujiang City. If I guessed correctly, the leader should be Shi Siming!"

Seeing that nothing could be hidden from this old fox, An Lushan sweated on his forehead and whispered: "Before, the emperor told the ministers that the Tongluo tribe should be settled in Youzhou. If the journey is inconvenient, I will send an army to meet them and escort them to Youzhou."

Li Linfu took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Looking at your intention to give jade, I remind you that everything has boundaries. Don't cross the boundaries easily. It's yours, and the court will give it to you. Sometimes it's too ugly to look at, but instead It’s counterproductive.”

An Lushan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and said quickly: "I will withdraw my troops immediately and return to Youzhou!"

"Entering the capital without permission is a serious crime in itself. I won't hold you accountable this time. Go back in the afternoon! Someone is eyeing Fan Yang's position as the Jiedushi!"

"Yes! Yes! Thank you, Prime Minister, for reminding me!"

An Lushan quickly retreated and walked out of the restaurant. An Lushan breathed a sigh of relief and felt that his back was soaked. He sighed longly: "This old fox is so awesome!"

Li Ye had been sitting aside. An Lushan was too nervous to notice Li Ye. After An Lushan left, Li Ye stood up and said, "Grandpa, my grandson is also leaving!"

Li Linfu nodded and told him: "Stay away from him, that guy is ruthless, so be careful!"

"My grandson remembers it!"

Li Ye bowed, said goodbye, and went out. He got on his horse and followed An Lushan's carriage from a distance.

Falcon's behavior was too abnormal today. It felt like he was deliberately letting off steam and using the death of his master as an excuse. It just couldn't be explained. When did Falcon become so serious about love and justice?

Li Ye had an intuition that the Falcons' loss was related to An Lushan.

As soon as An Lushan's carriage arrived at the gate of Guangzhaifang, a man flashed past him, bowed and said, "Junior, please see the Jiedu Envoy!"

The carriage stopped, An Lushan opened the curtain and glanced at him, "Why are you here?"

"My father asked me to bring a message to Jiedu Envoy. I have been looking for Jiedushi Envoy. I heard that Jiedushi Envoy went to Guangzhaifang, so I rushed here!"

An Lushan glanced around and said in a low voice: "There are many people here, so if you have anything to do in the future, go directly to Qingzong and get in the car first!"

In the distance, Li Ye ducked behind a big tree in the distance. He could see clearly that the Falcon had indeed come to An Lushan. The door opened, the Falcon got on An Lushan's carriage, and the carriage left.

Li Ye snorted coldly. Falcon is a descendant of the Wu family. It seems that the Wu family and An Lushan have a very close relationship.

During dinner, Li Ye told his mother his decision.

Pei Sanniang didn't say a word for a long time. Aunt Mu next to her advised: "Sanniang, if the child has this idea, just let him go! Anyway, he is following his grandfather on the expedition, so there is no danger. Besides, the eagle's wings are strong, so he should Let him fly high and he will be successful!"

Pei Sanniang sighed and said: "You have not been good at studying since you were a child. Ever since you started practicing martial arts, I knew that sooner or later you would embark on the road of joining the army, like your grandfather and several uncles. I just didn't expect that it would come so soon. You You’re only fourteen years old!”

Li Ye smiled and said: "This time is actually just an experience. It is not yet a formal military service. To join the army, you must be at least seventeen or eighteen years old!"

“No problem with the experience!”

When Pei Sanniang heard that he was not officially joining the army, she agreed, "You can go ahead! If you go to Shuofang, my mother also wants to go back to Liangzhou for a visit."

Li Ye then handed Pei Sanniang the counter check for ten thousand taels of silver and the jade pendant for withdrawing money, "This is a reward from the emperor!"

Pei Sanniang had something on her mind, and she no longer had the surprise of getting a large sum of money in the past. More importantly, she already knew that her son would receive a large reward. The surprise was over, and now it was just a surprise.

Pei Sanniang took the envelope and nodded, "I originally planned to rent a small warehouse in Baoji Cabinet Shop, but it costs three guans a month. It's just a steal. I recently considered taking out all the silver and let's dig a cellar at home. , put the silver in the cellar.”

Li Ye hesitated for a moment, then went back to his room to get the land deed and handed it to his mother, "This is the house over at Taipingfang. Mother, go and have a look!"

Ever since her son mentioned last time that there was a small house with three acres in Taipingfang, Pei Sanniang had been thinking about it and was waiting for her son to take out the land deed!

From ancient times to the present, women have a special affection for houses, and women in the Tang Dynasty were no exception. Pei Sanniang quickly took the land deed, her eyes lit up, and it turned out to be her son's name on the land deed.

"When did you transfer the ownership?" Pei Sanniang asked in surprise.

Li Ye said helplessly: "The title deed I got is in my name. Master Feilong should have handled it, otherwise I won't be able to transfer the title."

The land deed was made two months ago, and my son didn’t have a household registration at that time. Alas! The things that powerful people do are not understandable to ordinary people.

At this time, Pei Sanniang's heart was filled with anticipation, "We will go see the house tomorrow!"

Early the next morning, a family of three took an ox cart to Taipingfang.

"This is the alley!"

Li Ye stopped the oxcart and paid for it first, saving my wife from haggling for a long time.

Pei Sanniang was still thinking about paying a few cents less for the bus fare, but she didn't expect her son to pay the bus fare first. She had no choice but to get out of the car, look at the surrounding environment and said: "Auntie, it's much quieter here than our place, and the water is also clear. There are green trees everywhere, it’s really nice!”

"There is only one house in the alley, and there is no one to talk to."

Aunt Mu muttered in a low voice. She had a good relationship with the old lady next door recently and often chatted together.

"Come and take a look first!"

Li Ye opened the door, and the family of three walked around the mansion. Within half an hour, Pei Sanniang and Aunt Mu made a decision.

This is not a place for them to live. It is too deserted. There are only a few shops in the square and there is no atmosphere of life at all. Maybe the people living here are rich and powerful, but they are not suitable.

"Aye, I'll leave the house to you! Let's go back to Changlefang."

"Mom, why don't you help me find someone to look after the house? Someone who is honest and completely trustworthy."

Aunt Mu whispered: "How is Lao Kou?"

Pei Sanniang nodded, "Lao Kou and his wife are good!"

The old Kou couple were their neighbors in Yonghefang, from Fengxiang Mansion. Their son died in the war. The two old men came to Chang'an with their little granddaughter to make a living. They rented a house and made a living by washing other people's clothes. They have been together for many years. , knowing that they are honest people.

Li Ye handed a bunch of keys to his mother, "Let them live outside. They don't need to clean the inner house, but they are asked to walk around every night. I will give them three guan of money every month."

"The three bills are about the same, don't worry! I'll make arrangements for you."
