Ye Chang also saw Yang Hui's gaze when he looked back. His gaze was extremely strange, which made Ye Chang stunned for a moment.

He never felt that he could hide his hatred with Yang Hui forever, so when Yang Hui was talking to him just now, he was still guessing whether the other party knew that he was Ye Shu's brother who had been killed by him.

But now Yang Hui's gaze is so complicated that Ye Chang can't guess what he is thinking.

It seems to be a little...feared by him?

As his son-in-law, there is no need to be afraid at all. Even if he can exert some influence on Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan, this influence is still far from that of old traitors like Li Linfu and Gao Lishi.

Just after a silent look at each other, Yang Hui turned around and left, and Ye Chang also walked towards Yuetang.

Li Linfu summoned Ye Chang to meet. After Ye Chang sat down, Li Linfu smiled and said, "Ye Chang, don't leave at noon today, and have a few drinks with me."

Ye Chang was a little puzzled. He was still hanging him yesterday. Even this morning, he was obviously going to hanging him. Why has his attitude changed now?

"Mr. Li wants to drink, but I have some wine I brewed, but I am a little bit strong. I wonder if Mr. Li wants to drink?" He didn't understand in his heart, but he said in his mouth as Li Linfu's wishes.

"Your Majesty said you would ask for your marriage. I know. I will arrange this matter. Just rest assured." Li Linfu said with a smile again.

"Ah?" Ye Chang was stunned.

Li Linfu regarded this kind of dazedness as a surprise. He laughed: "You don't have elders, and some things are inevitable. If you have any questions, just ask me. Don't feel ashamed.

Ye Chang felt that his head was not enough, but Li Linfu did not show hostility. He was disappointed when he couldn't come up, so he smiled and said, "I have some things, I really want to ask Mr. Li... the situation in Liaodong..."

As soon as he said this, someone suddenly said outside: "The Ministry of War is urgent to report, please see my husband."

"Come on" Li Linfu frowned immediately, feeling disappointed.

However, since he was a powerful minister, he always had the desire for power. He knew that since he was called the Ministry of War, it must be a very important matter. Soon, a small official hurriedly entered and presented a military newspaper to Li Linfu.

After seeing it, Li Linfu's expression changed slightly: "Get my map"

Someone took the map in front of him. Li Linfu looked at the map with great difficulty. After thinking about it, he attracted Ye Chang: "The victory of An Lushan is said to be a great victory in the battle with the Khitans. He defeated the Khitan coalition forces in Yanjin Prefecture. The Khitans were defeated and dispersed to South Suzhou, and then went south to invade Gaimuzhou. The local Hu chiefs all surrendered one after another, so An Lushan intended to go to Liaocheng Prefecture..."

As he listened to his chant, Ye Chang looked at the map, and then his face became gloomy.

To the south of Gaimuzhou is Liaocheng Prefecture, to the south of Liaocheng Prefecture is Anshizhou, Jian'an Prefecture, and to the south of Jian'an Prefecture is Jilizhou.

In other words, the Khitans were only three states away from Jili Prefecture at this time.

"Can An Lushan defend the Liaohe River?" Li Linfu asked.

"He can't hold on... The news when I came was the Xi people, and he was beaten to make him fall and flowing water." Ye Chang said gritting his teeth.

He could almost guess that the so-called victory in Yanjin Prefecture was probably a big defeat. It would be better if the Khitans crossed the border and did not dare to stop the Khitans from Yanjin Prefecture's crossing the Liao River. The Bohai Kingdom went north and east. They were not very powerful at this time, and there were only one or two hundred thousand people in the eight tents of the clan. It was impossible to challenge the Bohai Kingdom, so they could only go south.

These 200,000 people, with the ability of nomadic people, could generate 30,000 to 50,000 soldiers. The Khitans went south to the prefectures under the former Andong Protectorate. After the Yingzhou Rebellion, they gradually gave up, just like Ye Chang's previous Jili Prefecture, controlled by the local chiefs of various races, and were nominally enthroned by the imperial court. They could not resist the attack of tens of thousands of soldiers. Even if they were united, they were afraid they could withstand the Khitans.

"So, although this letter was sent in a hurry, the battle happened at the end of February. It has been nearly two months since now." Li Linfu pondered for a moment, then looked at Ye Chang: "You stay in Beijing..."

Li Linfu's meaning is very obvious, that is, now that the situation in Liaodong has changed suddenly, Jilizhou is facing a crisis, so that Ye Chang can stay in Chang'an and avoid being in danger.

Ye Chang would never make such a choice.

"Please allow me to return to Liao quickly." Ye Chang shook his head and said, "Don't let the Khitan be big, otherwise Youyan will be in danger."

"What do you mean?"

"In the past, the Xi people were in Raole, and the Khitan was in Songmo. Fanyang was defended by the power of the town, and divided the Lu to comfort the Wei and Bohai to help Fanyang. Now, there are millions of people in the land of thousands of miles in Andong. If the Khitan was allowed to collect and use it, this is another Goguryeo, if this is the case, Liucheng would be unprotected and Fanyang would be in danger. The Central Plains would be strong, and the Central Plains would be harassed and eroded Youyan, and the Central Plains would be weak, and the Great Wall would be destroyed and Hebei would be in trouble for hundreds of years. It would never be allowed to be

Ye Chang said while pointing on the map. Li Linfu frowned and said for a while: "You are right. Although it is a problem of tinea scabies, if you ignore it, it will cause disaster to future generations."

But he still looked embarrassed.

Ye Chang understood why he was in trouble: "The court has no soldiers or food?"

"That's right, the sage wants to conquer Xiaobolu, and has already made Gao Xianzhi prepare." Li Linfu narrowed his eyes and felt embarrassed: "Longyou and Fanyang, these two towns should not be relaxed. Although Baimei is dead in Beiting, if the Uighurs are not prepared, they will not do..."

Not only that, he looked at Ye Chang again: "There are also abnormal movements in the southwest... The court cannot draw out soldiers, nor can it transfer money and food. If you can tolerate it, in two or three years, when the battle of Xiaobolu is over, I will promise you to regain Jilizhou."

Ye Chang said almost without hesitation: "I have occupied two or three years, and I have lost two or three years, and they will not be able to do it well... My husband, when I go to Liaodong, there is no need for the imperial soldiers, money and food, and all the supplies, the Free Anton Chamber of Commerce accepts it. Just allow me to recruit and move to Jilizhou to prepare for war."

Li Linfu was shocked. In his opinion, Jilizhou is not an important place, and even the entire Liaodong is optional. However, Ye Chang's attitude was clearly to live and die with Jilizhou. His understanding of Ye Chang has changed a little. Ye Chang is definitely not a person who does not know how to choose, but he still made such a choice. What is the intention of this?

At this time, he realized that his relationship with Ye Chang was different, so he didn't guess and asked directly: "What is your intention to defend Jilizhou? I just told you directly, can you believe me?"

Ye Chang looked at Li Linfu, a little surprised at his attitude, and didn't know why Li Linfu was heartbroken with him. However, he didn't know that Li Linfu mistakenly thought that Yang Hui was the one he invited to explain his difficulties. At this time, he was already old Huai Michang, and he looked at his son-in-law.

"If you want to go overseas to find fairy mountains, you must protect Lushun. If you want to protect Lushun, Jili Prefecture must protect. If you want to protect Jili Prefecture, the old land of Anton Protectorate should not fall into the hands of the Khitans." Ye Chang hesitated for a moment and decided to use the reason to visit the overseas fairy mountains: "Mr. Li, if you can find the overseas fairy mountains, all the problems will not be a problem now.

He said it was very vague, but Li Linfu was a person with one mind and nine orifices. His thoughts suddenly changed and he immediately thought of two things.

One is Li Longji. Li Linfu knows very well that whether he or Ye Chang, his wealth and power are now dependent on Li Longji. If Li Longji dies, then he and Ye Chang will have to be unlucky. If he can find overseas fairy mountains and seek medicine to prolong his life, then Li Longji can live longer, and his wealth and power can also continue. Even if he does not consider Li Longji, he is actually older than Li Longji. Although he is still energetic, he knows that his body gradually decays.

The second is to plan for the future. Even if you cannot obtain the elixir, if you cannot maintain your power, then you can have a way out of the land of profit-making states - the story of the cunning rabbit three holes. Li Linfu is still very clear about it.

Thinking about this, Li Linfu's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "What are you talking about? Just speak, the court can give you what you can."

He thought more profoundly. Ye Chang was devoted to visiting overseas fairy mountains. If there were big Jilizhou, someone would always need to control it. The Ye family itself had no people worth mentioning, and although he was a relatively mediocre nephew of Li Linfu, at least... he could get a share of Jilizhou.

More importantly, if Ye Chang's marriage with Tengkong can be accomplished, half of the Jilizhou will be his Li family. To guard Jilizhou means to guard his Li family business.

If Yang Hui had not come here, Li Linfu would never support Ye Chang without reservation. It is even possible that Yu Qian would keep Ye Chang in Chang'an and Ren Jilizhou to lose again. However, because Yang Hui's few tentative words caused Li Linfu to misunderstand and truly regard Ye Chang as his own person, he would say the words he could give as much as he could. If Yang Hui knew about this, he would probably vomit three more liters of blood again.

On this day, in Li Linfu's mansion, the guests and the host were all happy, but Li Tengkong did not come out to meet again. Ye Chang got Li Linfu's letter, and when he returned home, his expression became much more relaxed.

The support Li Linfu promised to give was the most important in three aspects. One was people, allowing people to recruit exiles, maids, sons, criminals, etc. on Hebei and Henan Road. On average, within 20,000 people could be recruited to Liao in an average of less than 20,000 people per year to enrich the population of Jilizhou. The second was grain, allowing grain to be purchased in Huainan Road and transported to Liaodong.

If someone has food, he will have the capital to win in Liaodong. As for the third article, it is to set up the position of Liaodong marching chief general manager, and transfer Xiangping guards to the jurisdiction of Liaodong ruling to avoid being controlled by the French governor of Fanyang and the Anton Protectorate. He allowed to recruit no more than 3,000 formal troops and no more than 15,000 regiments in Jili Prefecture. The expenses consumed are borne by the treasury taxes that should be paid by Jili Prefecture, as in the case of the Jiedushi of each town. If there is a New State, it will increase accordingly. The opening of these policies almost allows Ye Chang to develop in Liaodong without any restrictions, such as the salt industry and the iron industry. These industries that were originally specialized by the state can now do things in Liaodong. More importantly, Ye Chang does not have to care about An Lushan's control at all. To a certain extent, the Liaodong ruling chief manager has replaced the position of the Anton Protectorate and becomes half a Jiedushi.

The position of the marching chief executive was not originally a new establishment, but some of it was changed to the Governor's Office. Now that it is taken out, there will not be too much doubt and opposition. Moreover, the marching chief executive can be led by the prince, and his chief clerk is the official who is the real in charge of the work, which is convenient for Ye Chang to perform.

With Li Linfu's active promotion, after waiting for another three days, Ye Chang's confession was issued. His new official position was the judge and the general of the Liaodong Marching General Office and the military officer. He was a test of the Sima of Jilizhou, the editor-in-chief of the prosecutor, the guerrilla general, the cavalry lieutenant, the field envoy of Jilizhou, the field envoy of Jilizhou, the transfer envoy, and the transfer envoy, and a lot of names, and the rank of the rank was also promoted to the fifth rank. And according to his wishes, he had vacant officials and subordinates, all of which were appointed by his subordinates.

Therefore, Luo Jiuhe became the new Xiangping Guardian, Nan Jiyun was the Liaodong Tuan Zheng, Cen Shen was the secretary of Jilizhou, and Zhang Hao was the chief magistrate of Jilizhou. The rest of them each had their own duties.

Even so, Ye Chang still has a large number of official positions to arrange, but not all the people he wants to attract are in place. For example, when he comes to II, Ye Chang invites him for his job, he is still hesitating, while Wang Changling is still in Jiangning at this time. He still doesn't know if he has received the letter of recruitment sent by Ye Chang and Cen Shen.

The matter in Chang'an has been completed, and Ye Chang still has to go to Luoyang to cultivate martial arts, so he did not delay. After saying goodbye to the corresponding person, he was ready to leave Chang'an.

This time he did not choose to take a boat, but took the land. On the ninth day of the April 1st, the people he had made friends with went to Baqiao to say goodbye to him. He looked back at everyone and was about to say goodbye, when he suddenly heard a cry.

"I don't know who it is, but I am so sad that I am so sad." Cen Shen sighed beside him.

"A real man should make achievements from all directions, how can he adapt to his children's attitude?" Zhang Hao said with emotion.

This is not to mock others, but to motivate himself. He had the most extensive friendship in Chang'an City, so there were more people who came to see him off than to see him off. He lived in Chang'an for a long time, and he couldn't help feeling a little sad when he thought that this trip would be to Liaodong, which is famous for its bitter and cold hair. Under such circumstances, he could only be so motivated.

"What Mr. Zhang said is that good men are determined to be in all directions. What's the point of separation? In the past, Wang Bo sent Du Shaofu to Shuzhou to serve, and there was a poem saying, "There are close friends in the sea, and the world is like neighbors. We are close friends and we are close friends, and there are few loneliness on the road."

The two of them encouraged each other beside Ye Chang, but Ye Chang's attention turned to the other end, because he always felt that among the people crying over there, there seemed to be a pair of resentful eyes staring at him.

But whenever he went looking for it, he could not see anything.

"Let's go..." He smiled and shook his head. Maybe he was too sensitive.

But at this moment, someone shouted: "Sima Ye, please stay."

Sima refers to his position as Sima in Jili Prefecture. Ye Chang heard that the voice came from where he had just cried, so he looked over. An old man came out of the group of people. The old man was very haggard and dressed in regular clothes, slowly walked towards him.
