Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 232
This time, he still failed to frame Li Fei. On the contrary, Tang Xuanzong issued an imperial decree to the Anton Protectorate to encourage Li Fei, and sent Li Fei a lot of rewards.

Yang Guozhong was so angry that he returned to his prime minister's mansion, picked up the teacup, and wanted to take a sip of tea, but before he drank it, he smashed the teacup to the ground, and the broken porcelain and tea splashed, scaring several people present The servant girl's face was pale and trembling.

Time passed little by little, and the winter of Tianbao's 13th year also came.

At this time, more than three months had passed since Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty called An Lushan back to Chang'an City for the first time, and An Lushan refused for the first time when he complained of illness.

During this period, Tang Xuanzong not only sent the imperial physician there, but also sent envoys several times to express condolences to An Lushan's condition.

Theoretically speaking, since the imperial physician was sent, one could tell if An Lushan was sick or not.But it's not that simple. An Lushan found a really sick person from somewhere, and stretched out a hand through the curtain for the two imperial doctors to see. Lu Shan came to see a doctor, but was blocked by An Lushan's people on the pretext that An Lushan could not see strangers.

The two imperial physicians had no choice but to see An Lushan through the hand extended by 'An Lushan'.This looks really sick!
Because they couldn't see the true face of An Lushan, although there were doubts, the two imperial physicians did not dare to confirm that the sick person was not An Lushan, so they could only report to Tang Xuanzong that he was really sick.

The two imperial physicians didn't know, but they reported that An Lushan was really 'ill', which really made Tang Xuanzong feel a big stone in his heart.

Tang Xuanzong had an excuse to comfort himself. An Lushan had no ambitions and would not really betray Datang.

However, since it is a seed of doubt, how can it be so easy to completely eliminate it before the source is eliminated.And the source of this is that Anlu Mountain did not come to Chang'an City!

This is not only the source of suspicion, but also Tang Xuanzong's heart disease, which is why Tang Xuanzong has sent envoys to express condolences to An Lushan's "illness" in the past few months.

After being ill for such a long time, he would die of illness if the illness continued. Therefore, An Lushan was willing to meet the envoy of the imperial court again this time, and said that his illness had improved.

In Chang'an City, when Tang Xuanzong heard that An Lushan's illness had improved a lot, he was overjoyed immediately, and hurriedly sent an envoy to invite An Lushan back to Chang'an City.

In order to let An Lushan return to Chang'an City with peace of mind, Tang Xuanzong sent the envoy to say: "I specially left a hot spring for Lushan in Huaqing Palace. Now it is winter, and Lushan is in poor health. We spend the winter in the bitter cold of Youzhou, and I am waiting for Lushan in Huaqing Palace!"

Tang Xuanzong's tone was no different from "coaxing". Everyone who listened thought that Tang Xuanzong had always favored and valued An Lushan.

However, when Tang Xuanzong's words spread to Youzhou, An Lushan still didn't even have any intention of going to Chang'an City, and he even became more guarded against Tang Xuanzong by the court in his heart.

The first time Tang Xuanzong summoned him, he didn't go, but now he refused several times, and a few months later, he was even more afraid to go.However, although he dared not go, An Lushan did not explicitly reject Tang Xuanzong.Not only did he not refuse, he also agreed!
An Lushan agreed to come to Chang'an City!

After receiving the news, Tang Xuanzong had a smile on his face, and unconsciously comforted himself that An Lushan had no problems and no ambitions!
Unfortunately, Tang Xuanzong's joy did not last for a few days.

An Lushan agreed to come to Chang'an City, but agreeing and actually coming to Chang'an City are two different concepts.An Lushan did set off from Youzhou City, but he only walked from Youzhou City for half a day, and the territory under the jurisdiction of Youzhou City had not yet left. Because of the wind, he was "ill again" and claimed that he could not continue the journey. After Ren Dai himself went to Chang'an City to plead guilty to Tang Xuanzong, he returned to Youzhou City.

As far as Chang'an City was concerned, Tang Xuanzong's heart immediately became cold when he learned of the "situation" of Anlu Mountain.

However, although his heart was cold, Tang Xuanzong still comforted himself in his heart that An Lushan was just 'ill again' and couldn't come to Chang'an City because of his unbearable health.

Anton Dufu Mansion, Liaoyang City.

Li Fei also got the news from Youzhou's eyeliner.

"An Lushan is really a talent, a 'sick', actually dragged on for several months, and now 'sick again', I am afraid it will take another few months to 'get better'!" Li Fei laughed.

"Master Jiedu, from this point of view, An Lushan's ambitions are like Sima Zhao's, and everyone has already known about it," Lu Xin said.

"It's just that I don't know when His Majesty will fully wake up. It may be too late to start mobilizing troops to guard against Anlu Mountain, but it's better than doing nothing." Li Fei sighed.

In fact, he knew in his heart that Tang Xuanzong's mentality, no matter how much he doubted An Lushan at this time, in order not to let An Lushan misunderstand, in order to appease An Lushan, Tang Xuanzong would not be able to take precautions against An Lushan.

Du Fu was silent at the side, but his face was full of sorrow.

Du Fu was concerned about the country and the people. Seeing that An Lushan's ambition could not be hidden, but the court still did not act, he was very worried about the chaos that would be caused if An Lushan really started to rebel.

"An Lushan's ambitions are clear, and the imperial court did not act in order not to cause An Lushan's 'misunderstanding', but our Andong Governor's Mansion has to guard against it!" Li Fei said.

An Lushan has 20 soldiers under his command, while his Andong Protectorate has less than [-]. He also has a grudge with Anlushan. Once Anlushan starts to rebel, the Andong Protectorate will inevitably be affected.

The 20 Anton Army under his command, equipped with a full set of equipment, and having gone through the Battle of Bohai Kingdom, can be regarded as an elite force.However, the [-] army under An Lushan's command is also well-equipped, and everyone has armor, as well as a large number of well-made Modao, Hengdao, and Maqiang made by the Tang army.Moreover, the army of Anlu Mountain followed Anlu Mountain in continuous battles for more than ten years, and they were all elites in all battles.

Not to mention, even if it was one-on-one, Li Fei dared not say that his Anton army had any advantage over An Lushan's army.

"What does Master Jiedushi plan to do?" Mao Youde asked.

"Build the city wall high and accumulate food widely!" Li Fei's eyes flashed brightly.

When the strength is far inferior, the best defense is defense, and building high walls and accumulating food is one of the best defenses. After all, keeping the old nest can keep the foundation.

"Starting from Liaoxi City and Yingzhou, which are the closest to Pinglu Road, all the way to Liaoyang City, we must do our best to build a high wall and accumulate food and defense equipment in the city. If Anlu Mountain is really rebellious, at least ensure safety The Dongdu Protector's Mansion is not lost at all!" The Anton Protectorate's Mansion is Li Fei's current lair, and with the Anton Protector's Mansion here, Li Fei has the capital and the qualifications to continue planning for the future.
