    Ye Chang only has more than 20 followers, but these 20 or so are all elites in the Jilizhou army.  The most important thing is that after two years of hard work together, there is no doubt about the loyalty of these more than 20 people to Ye Chang.  Not to mention that those who came were just some soldiers, even if it was Emperor Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty who came, if they wanted to kill Ye Chang, they would step forward to stop him.  Therefore, they immediately unsheathed their swords and raised their eyebrows, looking murderous.  Ye Chang waved his hand and sneered.  The group of soldiers gathered around, and Ye Chang said loudly: "Who is the leader? Come forward and speak." An officer wearing soap and silk armor came forward, smiled and cupped his hands and said, "I have seen Ye Sima." "Who are you? What is this?  "What do you mean?" "I am Zhuang Tan, the captain of the Zuo Longwu Army. Because I heard that Ye Sima has returned to Beijing with meritorious service, I have been ordered to come to protect him." The captain of the Zuo Longwu Army belongs to Beiya, and it is Li Tang.  A branch of the Forbidden Army, now actually controlled by Gao Lishi.  Ye Chang frowned and dispersed. Even Zuo Longwu's army was mobilized. This momentum was really quite big.  ¡°I originally thought that Gao Lishi was just a faggot, but now it seems that he is not a faggot, but has already made his choice.  After a moment of silence, Ye Chang cupped his hands and said, "Thank you." "I don't dare. I respect Ye Sima's achievements in Liaodong." Zhuang Tan said with a smile: "Although I am here under orders, I am willing to do so.  , I don¡¯t know how many brothers in the camp are envious of the humble position. "This man is smooth-talking, not like a military general, but more like a bureaucrat who has been in the officialdom for a long time.  Although Ye Chang was unhappy in his heart, he responded with a few words on his face, and then went into the mansion on his own.  Zhuang Tan was not angry. He laughed twice outside the door. Seeing his appearance, the soldiers around him were a little puzzled: "Why is the captain laughing? This Ye Sima has such a big temper." "You know why I got it?"  Can others just watch this job?" Zhuang Tan asked with a smile.  The soldier secretly murmured in his heart that it was nothing more than a competition among the dwarfs. Some of the talented people in the Forbidden Army had gone to the border army to perform meritorious service. The rest were either wine sacks or mere superficial goods, so it was Zhuang Tan's turn.  But he said in his mouth: "That's because Lieutenant Zhuang is favored by the general." "This is not the reason for the random flattery, but everyone knows that I am a measured person." Zhuang Tan smiled and said: "You  "Is it easy to be on this mission?" "What's the difficulty? If the person in this house offends the saint, the best result is to be demoted, maybe even to be imprisoned, or even beheaded." "That's nonsense."  Zhuang Tan snorted: "You guys, please think carefully. If this is the case, how can we touch our Longwu Army? It is true that Ye Sima is angry with the saint, but besides Ye Sima, who else can give the saint a few dollars every year?"  "Don't forget that the money spent by our imperial army is also paid by the inner treasury." "What do you mean, Lieutenant Colonel?" "This Ye Sima, don't think the situation is not good now, but not only can we not offend, but also  We have to flatter him so that his financial management skills will be of great use sooner or later. When the time comes, we may have to rely on this Ye Sima to get our rewards." "That's it, Captain.  "Ying Ming", the soldier flattered him wildly, but he was thinking in his heart: No wonder the fighting style just now did not scare Ye Chang. He must have known it in his heart. Even if he made the saint unhappy, he was thinking about his ability to make money.  Go ahead, the saint will let him go.  Zhuang Tan spoke loudly, so people in the yard heard him through the door.  "You are telling me that you want to make good friends with me." Ye Chang smiled faintly and said to Shan Zhi, who looked confused.  What Zhuang Tan said outside the door should be what he heard. It not only expressed his own difficulties, but also revealed some news to Ye Chang: although someone wanted to embarrass him, it was just to embarrass him, and they did not really want to do anything to him.  , at least he doesn't have to worry about his life.  Not long after he returned to his residence, Cen Shen led Wu Qi and rushed over in high spirits.  Cen Shen was very happy that he had completed his task, and Wu Qi was also very excited when he thought about some discussions about "economy" he heard from Cen Shen.  But when the two of them arrived in front of Ye Chang's house and saw the sergeant standing at the door, Cen Shen didn't realize it, but Wu Qi grabbed him.  "What's wrong?" "The soldiers at the door are the Forbidden Army. No matter how favored Ye Sima is by the saint, he will not ask the Forbidden Army to stand guard for him. What's more, these are not a few Forbidden Army serving as guards of honor. Look  There were dozens of people at the front door alone. They didn't look like guards, but rathersurroundings." Wu Qi had stayed in Chang'an for a long time, and had experienced Wei Jian's incident, so he was no stranger to this kind of situation.  His expression was solemn.  After hearing his explanation, Cen Shen was immediately excited: "No wayhow could it be like this? He just didn't pay attention to it, but now he knows it when he observes it carefully."Wu Qi¡¯s judgment was correct.  Wu Qi glanced at him and saw that he was quite frightened. He sighed and said, "It seems that this Ye Sima I'm afraid he will follow in the footsteps of Duke Wei." "It's impossible, Ye Sima is very thoughtful.  Everything has to be predicted. When he was in Liaodong, he asked us to prepare plans for various possible emergencies." Cen Shen shook his head vigorously: "What does the plan say in this situation" The plan was made by Ye Chang in Liaodong.  A method of promotion.  He knew that he was not an immortal who had no plans. When facing Li Linfu, Huangfu Weiming, Gao Lishi and others, and even when facing Lu Qi, who was still a little naive now, he was repeatedly plotted by them. Therefore, he  Develop plans for various possible emergencies and promote them to his rule in Liaodong.  After being frightened for a moment, Cen Shen calmed down. He thought of a plan that Ye Chang had drawn up before the battle with the Khitans in the past. It was a plan for how to deal with the unfavorable military situation.  There was an unfavorable situation in the military situation in that plan. When a small unit was surrounded by enemy troops, what should be done to those who were surrounded, and how to deal with those outside the encirclement.  "No, it's not like the situation where Wei Jian and the others were arrested." After calming down, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Fifth Duke, you see, although these soldiers surrounded the Ye Mansion, they showed no signs of attacking and ransacking the house.  "I'm not nervous. I obviously didn't think there would be a fight or that the people in the house would escape." Wu Qi also noticed this. Seeing that Cen Shen reacted so quickly and regained his composure, he praised him.  Hearing his praise, Cen Shen couldn't help but blush, and said humbly: "I don't have such determination. I have experienced many things in Liaodong and made various deductions. As long as I can calm down, I can naturally see the situation clearly and find solutions."  "It's not a house raid, but it's still a siege. Mr. Cen, what should we do now?" "Since it's not a house raid, the situation is not that urgent. I'll ask first." Cen Shen hesitated and handed over to Wu Qi.  Said: "I went to Liaodong with Yesima, and then returned to Chang'an with him. I think many people know about it, and I asked the Fifth Duke to go over and ask what happened. The Fifth Duke has never had any contact with Yesima, no.  It will arouse suspicion." Wu Qi laughed and did not refuse. He strode forward and went straight to the Longwu Army sergeants. "Everyone, please invite me." He cupped his hands and said, "This mansion belongs to some big shot.  , I didn¡¯t see you all when I passed by yesterday, why are you here today?¡± Those Longwu sergeants all looked at Zhuang Tan. Zhuang Tan frowned and touched his chin suspiciously: ¡°Who is Mr. Lang? Why are you so angry?  "Is this a question?" "A certain scholar, the sage, has a purpose to call all those who are proficient in one skill or above to come to the capital to be selected. I am here because I want to pay a visit to a noble person, but I don't know who is in this house who is going to the capital to participate in the imperial examination and selection?"  Scholars come to see you with their articles. Such things happen every day in Chang'an City, and almost all celebrities have done it for more than a hundred years. What Wu Qi said does not arouse doubts.  In the first month of this year, Li Longji, who had been away from political affairs for a long time, suddenly issued an edict to all those who had a master's degree in arts or above to come to Beijing to prepare for selection. He probably wanted to play a meritocracy. This edict will bring many  People were introduced into Chang'an City.  "So that's it The person who lives here is Ye Gongba Chang, the Sima of Jili Prefecture who is a member of the Liaodong Marching Army. If you come to this house, I'm afraid you are on the wrong track. Ye Gong is a border minister, not  Senior officials in the court, haha" "You are not senior officials in the court, you are the imperial guards, the emperor's personal guards, why are you here?" Wu Qi was surprised: "General, don't try to coax me, I'm just delivering an article.  That¡¯s all, I won¡¯t disturb the nobles. If you are lucky enough to be appreciated by the nobles, it will be considered a good relationship with the general.¡± Zhuang Tan laughed, thinking that this guy seems to be smart, so that¡¯s true.  It's time to form a good relationship with him. Anyway, there is nothing to hide about the purpose of coming.  At that moment, Zhuang Tan said: "Mr. Lang is determined. Ye Sima has made great achievements at the border. When he comes to Beijing this time, the superiors asked us to protect him. One is to protect his safety, and the other is to show his momentum. Since Lang Jun is a scholar, he should listen to  "Have you ever said anything about Ye Sima?" "I have heard of Ye Sima of Liaodong, but I never thought that he would be so trusted by the emperor In this case, I have to come here to pay you a visit.  I didn¡¯t bring the article, so I¡¯d like to ask you to make it easier when I come back tomorrow.¡± Zhuang Tan agreed with a smile. Anyway, their order was not to let Ye Chang leave their surveillance, but they did not say that Ye Chang was not allowed to pass news to the outside world.  Wu Qi returned to Cen Shen, listened to all the questions and answers, and then said with a smile: "Master Cen's prediction is not bad. It seems that so far, Ye Sima is still in danger. Does Master Cen have anything to say?"  , I will take advantage of the opportunity of sending Yu Ye's article to send it in together tomorrow. " "Thank you, Fifth Duke. I didn't expect that I originally asked Fifth Duke to help me in Liaodong, but I was troubled in Chang'an." Cen Shen felt a little ashamed:  "It's really unlucky timing." "Why did Ye Sima sneak back to Chang'an this time?" Wu Qi asked curiously.   "What's the reason" Cen participated in Wuqi's explanation of why Ye Chang left Liaodong and ran back to Chang'an. At the same time, Ye Chang smiled at home.  "What are you laughing at, fifth brother? Those soldiers outside may sound nice, but in fact they are here to monitor and detain us." Shanzhi said: "But this level of surveillance is ineffective. We can escape over the wall tonight."  "No need. If he really wanted to take action against us, he would have done it just now, even when we were in Li Linfu's house." Ye Chang said: "When Li Linfu goes out now, he always rides hundreds of paces to clear the streets. How many times did the government arrest us?"  "It's not easy for people." "What do you mean?" "It seems that some people are fanning the flames, some are adding fuel to the flames, some are watching from the other side, and some are pushing the boat forward." Ye Chang narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm afraid our Xianggong,  I am also evaluating how much ability I still have. It is not difficult for Ye Chang to escape. As Shanzhi said, those Longwu Army soldiers who are accustomed to being pampered in Chang'an City will definitely not be able to keep an eye on them if they cross the wall at night.  He, coupled with Ye Chang's previous arrangements, could have rushed to Dengzhou before the court's wanted order was received, and then fled back to Liaodong by boat. But the price was too high, at least for his sister-in-law Fang, who was still in Wolong Valley.  It would be difficult for him to bring his nephew and niece back to Liaodong, and this was a last resort. Now Ye Chang still has a chance to reverse the situation.  On this occasion, in a corner of Chang'an City, in Yang Zhao's mansion, Yang Zhao sent away the servant who was delivering the news and sighed. The eldest son Yang Xuan was following him. Hearing him sigh, he said, "Why are you sighing?  ?  " "Ye Shiyi is in trouble this time.  "Yang Zhao lamented: "Thinking about my past friendship with him, I feel quite emotional.  " "My lord, if you say so why don't you lend a helping hand to Ye Shiyi?  "Yang Xuan is getting older, and now he has begun to follow Yang Zhao to receive people and treat people. He is somewhat close to Ye Chang in his heart, because every time Ye Chang gives Yang Zhao a gift, he always has a share. It can be said that Ye Chang is  He was the first to treat him as an adult. Therefore, he was willing to lend a hand to this "uncle" who was not much older than him: "Adults always treat people with righteousness first. Ye Shiyi has  In times of trouble, it seems inappropriate for adults to watch the fire from the other side.  " "You are still young and don't know what's wrong with this, so just wait and see."  "Yang Zhao said. Before he finished speaking, there was a bang in the back room and the sound of something falling to the ground. Before Yang Zhao could react, he saw his wife Pei coming over angrily. "What are you waiting for, Yang Zhao, you guy?  You know, you spent as much as a thousand dollars this month. If I hadn't received some bonuses from the Anton Chamber of Commerce, how could you have such a good life?  If Ye Shiyi falls, who can bring profits to the Andong Chamber of Commerce?  "Ms. Pei said fiercely. Yang Xuan shrank his neck and ran away immediately. Yang Zhao suddenly became disgraced and felt that his husband was weak. The next morning, Wu Qi and Cen Shen arrived in front of Ye Chang's house again, but after arriving here  , but they were surprised to find that the Longwu Army sergeants who were originally in front of the door had disappeared. Where did these sergeants go?
