Wu Zetian's oral decree seemed very strict at first glance, but in fact she was not angry.

This is more like an elder's reminder to the younger generation, telling Yang Shouwen not to forget the main purpose of this trip west.

"Your Majesty, is this only one sentence?"

Gao Lishi nodded awkwardly and said, "That's what Your Majesty has told you, I will never dare to miss a word."

It seems that Wu Zetian really attaches great importance to this weaving!

After thinking for a while, Yang Shouwen made a decision.

"Xiao Gao, please report to the saint after you go back, saying that I have not forgotten the saint's entrustment and have asked Mingxiu to go to Hulun City in advance. Yan Zhi disappeared mysteriously, and the clue left behind was Hulun City, but there is no clue yet."

"Yang Jun, you should tell Your Majesty these words yourself after you go back."

"Why?"

"Your Majesty ordered my servants to stay and help Yang Jun until he found Yan Zhi."

"You stay?"

Gao Lishi said: "I have seen Yan Zhi, so Your Majesty asked me to cooperate with Mr. Yang."

"You have seen Hair Weaver? When..."

"Last year, when Yan Zhi returned to Luoyang, I saw him once.

I still remember that the princess was also in Shangyang Palace that day, and I was fortunate to serve outside the palace. Yan Jun and His Majesty met him, and when he left, he met me. At that time, the princess asked me about his identity, but I didn’t know much.

Later, the princess told me that the man was named Yan Zhi, who was the eunuch of the Sigongtai and his confidant around His Majesty.

However, Yan Jun is away all year round, and there are not many people who know what he does except His Majesty, and even the princess is not clear about it. If it weren't for His Majesty's instructions this time, I wouldn't have known that Yan Jun was actually doing things in Anxi."

The staffing configuration of Sigongtai is very complicated, with two prisoners, two young prisoners and four eunuchs.

This eunuch is approximately equivalent to a position of four or above, and is a close minister around the emperor and is not something that ordinary people can take on.

Gao Yanfu, a dress that looks like Gao Lishi, is comparable to Yan Jun's position.

But, who would have thought that such a character would be the secret detective leader in Anxi?

Yang Shouwen was a little confused and said softly: "Are you saying that Yan Jun is... the same person as you?"

Gao Lishi nodded, which was considered an answer.

Ha, is this considered the "East Factory and West Factory" of the Tang Dynasty?

Yang Shouwen suddenly realized that Yan Zhi must have the information that even Wu Zetian was paying attention to, otherwise Wu Zetian would not have urged him to find Yan Zhi like this.

It seems that Hu Luncheng's trip must be as soon as possible...

The reason why Yang Shouwen stayed in Shuye City was because he was worried that the dragons in Shuye City would have no leader.

However, the day after Gao Lishi arrived, the Anxi Protectorate issued an order to appoint Lai Yao as the envoy of the army to rebuild the army. At the same time, the Anxi Protector Tang Xiujing ordered the appointment of the guerrilla general Gao Sheji, the Beiting Protectorate, to temporarily take the post of the lord of the city of Saiye City. After Bo Lu is eliminated, a large-scale repair and renovation will be carried out.

It seems that Yang Shouwen's suggestion has been recognized, and the court has begun to increase its attention to Suoye City.

This also made Yang Shouwen feel relieved, so he quietly left Thunder Ye City on the day the order from Anxi Protectorate arrived.

Su Mishe, the court will make another appointment.

According to the news from the Anxi Protectorate, Su Mishe will be transferred to Wuwei for office.

It is obvious that Wu Zetian also accepted Su Mishe's so-called "An Xinggui's same clan", or in other words, Wu Zetian also needed such a person to revive the An family's lintel in Wuwei. But what exactly do you think? Yang Shouwen doesn't know.

The only regret is that Sailga died in the Battle of Bashling.

Otherwise, he would likely get what he wished and go to Anxi Protectorate to work.

Yang Shouwen did not meet Su Mishe again because he had done what he promised Su Mishe and there was no need for any intersection.

I believe that with Su Mishe's versatile temperament, he also knows very well how to do things next...

Lai Yao took office and rebuild the army of protection.

Gaosheji temporarily led the Sailye City until the end of the Battle of Geluoling.

As for Ji Li Yuanying and Mina, Wu Zetian did not have any explanation. However, Yang Shouwen generally understood what Wu Zetian meant: If you want to wait for my approval, then show your talents first and prove that you are qualified to obtain my approval...

From this point of view, that is to say, Wu Zetian has a tacit attitude towards these two things.

Very good, this is the best!

Next, it depends on Ji Li Yuanying and Mina's ability!

Before leaving, Yang Shouwen told Lai Yao that he would pay attention to Ji Li Yuanying and Mina. Lai Yao also knew a little about Yang Shouwen's arrangement and expressed his approval. Because he also felt that the imperial court's control in Wubizhong and Mengchi areas was indeed somewhat insufficient. The entry of these two forces can strengthen the influence of the Tang Empire in the western part of Anxi, whether it is for the Suoye River Valley or the entire Anxi.

"Mr. Yang, when I go to Hu Luncheng, do you want me to send troops to accompany me?"

Yang Shouwen smiled and refused Lai Yao's kindness. Taking advantage of the night, he took Yang Cunzhong, Feng Changqing, Gao Lishi, four people and four horses, and two camels left Suoye City and headed towards the Tianma Governor's Office...

"Xiao Gao, what happened in Luoyang these days?"

Yang Shouwen and Gao Lishi rode in front, while Yang Cunzhong took care of Feng Changqing and followed the two of them.

After leaving Thunder Ye City, Yang Shouwen returned to the monk's dress.

A white monk's robe was particularly eye-catching in the night, but unfortunately she was missing a nine-ring tin staff in her hand. In the Sail of the horse-killing sabre used by Yang Shouwen was not carried, but was given to Geshu Daoyuan as a gift by him.

"These days, Luoyang has been calm.

After Yang Jun left, His Majesty ordered Duke Yang to be the deputy director of the Eastern Capital. Many people in the court expressed their opposition, believing that his Majesty was promoted too quickly. However, His Majesty and the Crown Prince ignored them, so that Duke Yang was hated by many people."

The Yang Gong mentioned by Gao Lishi is Yang Shouwen's father Yang Chenglie.

When Yang Shouwen heard that his father was promoted again, he was not happy, but instead felt vaguely worried.

My father was previously a Sima of Luozhou and served as a delegation training envoy. Later, he temporarily led a thousand cavalry, which has already made many people feel dissatisfied. Now, the deputy of Dongdu is at his back. Although this is just a false position, it will attract more hatred to my father.

"What did my dad say?"

"Mr. Yang didn't care and received His Majesty's will."

"It's too fast, my dad is promoted too fast... He is basically unstable. Now he is promoted so fast, which is really not a good thing."

Yang Shouwen was worried secretly, but because he was in Anxi, he could not help his father, and he could only complain in his heart.

However, with Lu Zhicheng and Zhang Jiuling around my father, I believe there will be no too many problems...

"Is there anything else?"

"What else?" Gao Lishi thought for a while, suddenly looked calm and said softly: "Before I set off, I heard a news. His Majesty had an argument with Di Gong, and even had a big quarrel."

"Duke Di and His Majesty have a dispute?"

In Yang Shouwen's memory, Di Renjie was a very tolerant person and never violated Wu Zetian.

I rarely heard that he would quarrel with Wu Zetian, why did this suddenly...

"Do you know why the argument?"

Gao Lishi said: "Actually... the matter was originally written by the King of Xiang, saying that the Great Buddha in Lushe was a bit old. The King of Xiang said that His Majesty was powerful in the country and that the Great Buddha should be rebuilt and that the monks and nuns in the world should pay a monday to help them.

Your Majesty was quite moved by this and discussed it with Di Gong.

However, Di Gong believed that floods and droughts have become disasters this year, and there will be wars on the border.

Although Your Majesty has obtained the treasure of Yuanwendu, there are too many places in the court that need money. Building a big Buddha costs a lot, and it is exhausting the people and hurting money. Once another disaster occurs, it will inevitably be difficult for the country, which is not good for the country.

Because of this, Your Majesty was very unhappy and thought Duke Di was exaggerating.

But Duke Di insisted on his own opinion and even chased him to Shangyang Palace and argued with His Majesty, which eventually angered His Majesty... However, His Majesty finally agreed with Duke Di's opinion and asked the Prime Minister to stop all matters in building the Great Buddha."

Wu Zetian wants to build a great Buddha?

It is also difficult for Yang Shouwen to judge whether this matter is right or wrong.

However, he did not care whether the Buddha was built, but rather paid more attention to Di Renjie's situation.

"Since Your Majesty agrees with Di Gong, what should Di Gong say?"

"Di Gong..." Gao Lishi wanted to speak but stopped. After hesitating for a moment, he whispered: "Di Gong's body is getting worse and worse. After having an argument with His Majesty, he was bedridden. Until I left Luoyang, I didn't hear it better."

Yang Shouwen's heart suddenly sank.

Of course he knew that Di Renjie was in poor health.

In fact, as early as the first year of Wansui Tongtian, Sun Wanrong and Li Jinzhong rebelled, Di Renjie quelled the rebellion, and governed Youzhou, his body was not very good. Even in the first year of Shengli, when Mochu sent troops to Hebei Road, Di Renjie also led his troops to fight. After that, Di Renjie's condition rose and fell, and his body was obviously getting worse and worse...

Before Yang Shouwen left Luoyang, he met Di Renjie.

At that time, it was not very good to see Di Renjie's complexion.

Di Renjie is the Dinghai Shen Needle in the court now. If something happens to him, it will definitely have a huge impact.

The most important thing is that with Di Renjie here, some people dare not deal with their father blatantly.

But if Di Renjie dies, there will inevitably be turmoil in the court...

When Yang Shouwen thought of this, he felt a little heavy.

He did not go to talk to Gao Lishi anymore, but just rode his horse slowly, and the atmosphere became a little solemn.

Gao Lishi did not disturb him anymore, but followed Yang Shouwen.

At dawn, the group crossed the Bash Ridge, walked through the snow-capped mountains, and marched towards the direction of Hulun City...

Luoyang is too far after all.

Even if Yang Shouwen is worried, he will not be able to do anything.

Soon, he adjusted his mentality and no longer worried about Di Renjie's physical condition. Luoyang's conditions are good and there are many famous doctors. I believe that Wu Zetian cares more about Di Renjie's health than him, so there should be no problem.

Now, Yang Shouwen should find Yan Zhi as soon as possible and complete the task.

After thinking it through, Yang Shouwen became much happier and his speed of travel accelerated.
