    When An Lushan was put on the shelf, he was still conscious, but in order to prevent him from shouting, two walnuts were stuffed in his mouth, so he could make "ho ho" sounds, but he could not speak.  The wound on his stomach was bandaged, but when he was put up, someone took off the gauze on his stomach.  According to Li Longji's will, he will be like Dong Zhuo, but Dong Zhuo lit the sky lantern after his death, while he lit it alive.  At this time, An Lushan's eyes were full of fear.  When he arrived, Ye Chang had already told him about the method of his execution. This cruel punishment, before it even hit him, made An Lushan frightened. He first cursed, and then repeatedly begged Ye Chang to give him a good time.  Ye Chang refused him without hesitation and asked him, "When others beg you for murder, have you ever been merciful and soft-hearted?"  This question left An Lushan speechless, but people like him would never reflect on their own sins, so in this situation, he felt nothing but fear and resentment in his heart, but no regret at all.  The gauze on his stomach was pulled away, and the wound was exposed again. Because the human body recovers slowly in winter, the wound has not yet closed. The executioner used a dagger to make a cross-shaped wound on his stomach.  Then a wick was inserted into his belly full of fat.  An Lushan screamed in agony, but it only made the fat on his belly tremble, and he couldn't break free at all.  The wick was quickly lit. An Lushan looked at the little fire on his belly, and the people watching around him cheered excitedly. Many of them would not even dare to kill chickens on weekdays, but now they saw this kind of light.  The situation is cruel, but everyone is filled with endless joy.  It was not because they suddenly became cruel, but it was really satisfying to execute An Lushan with such torture.  "Woo, madam, have you seen that Thief An is also here today?" "Lang Jun, the court has avenged your blood feud, and Mr. Ye has avenged it for you. Thief An Lu, this bitch, will definitely go to hell." People  The cheers were mixed with tears of joy. They all had relatives who had died in the previous chaos.  Zhou Xiangren couldn't help but shed tears when he heard these mournful and crying sounds.  Fleeing from Chang'an to Yongxian County, he was one of the few eunuchs who followed Li Longji, and he suffered a lot. Moreover, the family members he left behind in Chang'an City no longer exist at all.  "The sage and sage, An Ni's public execution not only allowed the people to vent their anger, but also deterred the traitors who had evil intentions After this incident, the people's confidence in the government and the court will be restored." Zhou Xianren thought to himself.  He noticed that while the people were discussing, although most people still praised Ye Chang, many also praised Li Longji for knowing people and making good use of them.  Ordinary people don't know much about the conflicts at the top. They only know that Ye Chang came from a humble background and Li Longji rose from a humble background. In just over ten years, he reached the high position he is today and is almost the most popular minister.  As for Li Longji's wrong use of Yang Guozhong and An Lushan, although there were critics among the people, it was just that one beauty covered up all the ugliness. Most people attributed it to a treacherous person deceiving the emperor, or a villain's ambition, rather than saying that Li Longji had improperly appointed people.  Li Longji has been the emperor for decades and has accumulated prestige for a long time. His reputation is high, so the people's support has not been completely lost.  Only when Li Heng was mentioned, the people showed complete contempt and contempt.  The people in Chang'an City were harmed by the war between An and Shi. They generally believed that it was Li Heng who lured the wolf into the house, which caused this accident.  "When the saint is around, the people's sentiments remain unchanged, but if the saint goes away" Zhou Xianren still had some insight. When he realized this, he suddenly felt worried.  But immediately, he put aside this worry: "Although the saint is old and healthy, I am here to observe the people's hearts under the order of the saint. As long as the people's hearts are still towards the saint, why worry? As for what will happen to the saint a hundred years later   Take it one step at a time, why should I meddle in this nosy matter? Instead of meddling in this nosy matter, I should spend some effort to make friends with Mr. Ye." When he thought of this, Zhou Xianren suddenly realized that it was not just the common people, but also conspirators like him.  Supervisor, after this incident, he had some different expectations for Ye Chang in his heart. He was surprised and helpless in his heart. As the saying goes, Ye Chang's achievements are unparalleled, so it is normal for scholars and people to have such expectations.  I just hope that Ye Chang will not be like An Lushan, who is ambitious and eager to achieve things, but ruins his reputation.  While he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a loud noise. He looked up suddenly, but it was the specially made wick that burned into An Lushan's abdomen. The fat on his stomach was burned and made a sizzling sound, and his whole body howled in pain.  .  But the more pitiful his howling was, the louder the cheers of the surrounding people were. Some people even came to the soldiers who were maintaining order and asked if they could cut a piece of Anlu Mountain's meat for them to eat.  Inspired by this, some people set up a charcoal stove outside the stadium and grilled the sausages, which they called "Anrou". It became very popular and made them rich, and "Anrou" became a delicacy in Chang'an.  Snacks passed down to future generations.  This is something to talk about later, so I won¡¯t mention it.  Zhou Xiangren looked around and found that in addition to the common people, there were many officials?, also at the scene.  These officials were located a little further away, and it was unknown what their expressions were now. Zhou Xiangren could only tell from their body shapes that many of these officials had taken refuge in Anlu Mountain.  "These disloyal people should be taught a lesson." Even though he couldn't see their expressions, Zhou Xianren still felt a sense of pleasure. Thinking about it, these officials who were thieves when Anlu Mountain was powerful must be feeling frightened and uneasy now.  What will happen to me?  Zhou Xiangren knew something about this. Li Longji hated An Lushan and Li Heng deeply, and he also gritted his teeth towards these officials.  In Li Longji¡¯s view, these officials were benefactors from him and should not rise up to resist, at least they should not cooperate with An Lushan and others.  But it is a pity that they only hesitated a little before accepting the fake positions appointed by Li Heng and An Lushan. If it weren't for them, these two rebels would not have been able to integrate the manpower and material resources of Chang'an City so easily and pursue Li Heng.  Longji refused to let go and almost forced Li Longji to a desperate situation.  Therefore, even if these people do not die, they will still shed their skin.  Li Longji has discussed with Wei Jiansu and others more than once whether to exile them to Yunnan or to Anxi.  As for Liaodong, it was not within the scope of Li Longji's consideration - the situation in Liaodong in recent years has also spread back to Chang'an. The officials and people of Chang'an all know that Liaodong is no longer the bitter and cold place of the former Sui or Taizong emperors, but has become a wealthy place.  land of plenty.  Being exiled there is not a punishment, but a reward.  Some people suggested that they should be exiled further. It is said that the ship of the great businessman Wang Yuanbao discovered a new world tens of thousands of miles away overseas. Putting these people into that new world not only reflects the emperor's kindness, but also  There is no need to worry that they will threaten the Central Plains in the future.  "If Mr. Ye knew what the court was currently arguing about, I don't know what would happen. In my opinion, he would definitely disapprove. In Mr. Ye's eyes, these thieving officials and their families are all valuable labor.  ¡­ Zhou Xiangren thought as he continued to look around the stadium, trying to find Ye Chang. Ye Chang himself did not appear at the execution scene. He had no objection to An Lushan being subjected to such a cruel punishment, but watching this execution,  He is not interested. Also not interested is Wang Jin. "After identifying him in the past few days, we have basically figured out who is the traitor.  "In Ye Chang's temporary apartment, with a pair of red eyes, Wang Jin presented a list: "Please take a look at Mr. Ye." Ye Chang took the list and saw that the name at the top was Chen Xilie, and the second name was Chen Xilie.  The first name is Ji Wen, then Zhang Jun, Zhang Pei, and then down to three or four of the ten people who were in trouble with him. In other words, many of them on this list belong to Ye Chang.  Enemy. Ye Chang nodded slowly. He was definitely not a selfless person. Since these people fell into his hands, he would certainly not be able to please you. "Please keep this list, Your Majesty."  After Beijing, you will definitely be held accountable for this matter, and you can hand it over then.  The evidence must be sufficient. Don't kill a bad person, and don't unjustly accuse a good person.  "Ye Chang said, "Yes," Wang Jin responded. "What, what do you have to say?  "Ye Chang asked when he saw that although his response was fragile, his expression seemed a little strange. "In order to distinguish who is a sincere thief and who is a thief, I met a lot of people.  Several people asked lowly officials to intercede with Ye Gong at least ask Ye Gong to interrogate them.  "Wang Jin said. "Who?  " "Ji Wen, and Zhang Jun.  "Wang Jin said hesitantly. "Ji Wen still has the nerve to see me?  As for Zhang Jun his father was a prime minister of Kaiyuan. Although he was just a deceitful prime minister, the court and the emperor treated his brother very well. There is irrefutable proof that they colluded with Niheng. Why did he want to see me?  ?  " "I don't know about this humble position.  Wang Jin said in a low voice: "He refused to say."  " Ye Chang thought about it and found that Wang Jin and Zhang Jun had no friendship, but his brother Wang Wei and Zhang Jun had been colleagues for many years. But now he was busy rebuilding Chang'an and was too lazy to pay attention to these personal friendships. He shook his head and said: "I  He is too busy to chat with them. If he has something to do, he can ask you to convey it to him.  " After sending Wang Jin away, Ye Chang was about to see the next person when he heard a noise outside. Ye Chang asked Li Yuan to go out and inquire. After a while, Li Yuan came back and reported: "It's over there at the stadium. I heard that An Thief is dead.  "    "So fast?  The fat on his body will last for several days.  "Ye Chang didn't take An Lushan's death as a big deal, he was very plain and honest. He didn't take it as a big deal, but the people did. After confirming that An Lushan had died, the people still refused to leave.  Seeing that most of An Lushan's body was burned by the wick, people gradually dispersed. After leaving the stadium, everyone was still confused. I don't know who shouted in the crowd: "An Lushan, the enemy of our generation, if not Ye Gong."  , this revenge is difficult to avenge.  Now that the chief culprit has been punished and the benefactor has not been thanked, why not go and thank Mr. Ye? As soon as these words came out, everyone responded in unison, Ye Chang's residence has been moved toNot far from Xishi City, although his old house was destroyed, relocating a courtyard here would not be a troublesome matter.  After a while, thousands of people arrived outside his house, and more and more people gathered. After half an hour, the number of people exceeded 10,000.  So many people gathered outside Ye Chang's house and surrounded the streets. At first, the guards didn't take it seriously because they all knew that many people would go to see An Lushan being tortured today.  But later, the guards also panicked and hurriedly reported to Ye Chang.  "People want to come and say thank you to me?" Ye Chang heard the news. He was happy at first, but then frowned: "Where's Bian Ping? Let him come to see me." Bian Ping came to Ye Chang's side sweating profusely after a while.  .  Ye Chang stared at him, making him feel uncomfortable. After a while, Ye Chang asked: "Is it your trick to gather so many people outside?" Bian Ping's eyes flickered: "This, treat it as a common people.  " "Say it again," Ye Chang said expressionlessly.  Bian Ping trembled, and finally admitted: "It was the villain who asked someone to lead" "I don't care what your plans are, just stop it." Ye Chang stared at him, feeling anxious. He said  Bian Ping trusted him very much, so he entrusted him with such an important matter as intelligence investigation. Needless to say, Bian Ping's loyalty to him had been tested several times.  However, Ye Chang hopes that the intelligence investigation will only be his auxiliary assistance and not become a tool for spies to govern the country.  Especially for this operation, Bian Ping's intention was very clear to Ye Chang, which was to win over people's hearts as much as possible for him, thus creating pressure on Li Longji and offsetting Li Longji's advantage as emperor.  Ye Chang didn't have any objections to this. What he had an objection to was that the intelligence investigation agency dared to make such a major choice without going through him.  "Ye Gong's merits are far greater than those of Shun and Yu. The people's aspirations and opinions cannot be manipulated by humble positions. Why did Ye Gong abandon this God-given opportunity?" Bian Ping was also a little anxious.  Acting without authorization is just for glory and wealth. He also knows that his actions are somewhat taboo. If he cannot convince Ye Chang, he is afraid that the power in his hands will be lost.  Ye Chang sighed and shook his head.  Bian Ping is loyal and capable, but due to his background, his vision is still too narrow and his goal is not long-term enough.  "Bian Ping, I will finish the matter for you today, but I don't want it to happen again." He looked into Bian Ping's eyes: "I know what you mean, but you have done it. How to make a decision, you  You can make suggestions to me, but you can never make decisions for me." When Bian Ping heard the first sentence, his expression relaxed slightly, but when he heard the next sentence, he realized that what he had done was not only illegal.  Taboo, but touched Ye Chang's bottom line. "This is not my intention alone. All the princes in Liaodong, including Luo Jiuhe, all mean this." Bian Ping couldn't help shouting: "Mr. Ye, everyone is following you for this purpose.  We will be rich for generations, instead of being hidden by birds with you." Ye Chang didn't know that Bian Ping alone would not be so bold, but if he added a group of close relatives from Liaodong, it would be different.  When those people in Liaodong were prosperous in the Central Plains, they could still live in turmoil. Now they saw the turmoil in the Central Plains, and they relied entirely on Ye Chang to turn the tide. How could they not become active in their hearts?
