As soon as Li Yan came outside, he heard Qiu Ying stroking his hands and smiling, and Qiu Shenji and Xiao Ling echoed.
Just the smiles of the three people were quite interesting.
Qiu Ying was delighted, Qiu Shenji was enthusiastic and complimentary, and Xiao Ling was a bit smiling.
"Yuanfang, your efforts in this moment are worth our efforts in one night. This woman's attitude has obviously softened!"
After hearing Qiu Ying's praise, Li Yan immediately said: "The cabinet leader is so complimentary. If it hadn't been for your overnight efforts, I might not have been able to come up with a single sentence. Thanks to the cabinet leader for his good command!"
"Haha, you kid!"
Qiu Ying's smile became more satisfied, and he nodded: "You have to keep up your efforts and ask for information about this woman. She is probably a key figure, and maybe you can uproot the Tibetan intelligence network buried in Longyou."
!”
Before Li Yan could answer, Xiao Ling took a step forward and asked for orders: "Your Majesty, my subordinates also know a little bit about Su Pi. This woman is cunning. It would be better if Li Wuwei and I take turns interrogating her, so we can be more sure!"
Qiu Shenji also wanted to say something, but he was preempted and could only keep his mouth shut.
Qiu Ying saw dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes, but he nodded: "Okay, the most important thing is to ask for information!"
Qiu Shenji hurriedly said: "After Liniang's disappearance, the Tubo side will definitely be alert, but the work of lurking does not happen overnight. It is not easy for those secret spies to have a serious status in the Tang Dynasty. They will not give up rashly. They will take advantage of their luck.
We must catch them all!"
Xiao Ling curled her lips slightly: "That's it, I'm going to interrogate you!"
Li Yan watched with cold eyes, finding it quite interesting.
In the inner guard of a big cat and two or three kittens, there is still open and covert fighting, so what?
He didn't want to pay attention to this kind of thing and asked: "How many books about Supi do our inner guards have?"
Qiu Ying said: "The internal security treasury is in Chang'an. You can go to Liangzhou Governor's Mansion to get it. If you have my internal security token, they will agree."
Li Yan said: "Okay, know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. I want to check it out."
Qiu Ying said to Qiu Shenji: "You will accompany Yuan Fang. If you have any chores, we will take care of them in front of you. Do you understand?"
"Yes Yes!"
Qiu Shenji responded repeatedly and followed Li Yan all the way out of the inner prison.
Li Yan knew very well that Qiu Ying hoped that his nephew could follow him and get some credit.
If it were anyone else, it wouldn't matter. Li Yan has never been a solitary person.
But Qiu Shenji is also worthy?
But it’s really hard to get rid of the other party if they follow you like this...
Li Yan thought for a while, but his five-point-smart brain didn't think of any sinister tricks, so he could only put it aside for the time being and rode out of the palace city again.
He didn't make any moves. Qiu Shenji walked alongside him, but they started chatting intentionally or unintentionally: "Yuan Fang is really good-tempered. Xiao Ling just wanted to take your credit, but you still tolerated it!"
Li Yan smiled: "What is the relationship between Xiao Ling and Uncle Qiu?"
"It turns out that Yuan Fang is worried about this. Oh, you misunderstood!"
Qiu Shenji perked up: "This Xiao Ling was originally a guard in the left prison. He was a dandy who only knew how to fight cocks. Later, he was transferred to my third uncle's subordinates. He also had nothing to do all day long. My third uncle criticized him quite a lot!"
Li Yanqi asked: "Then how did he become a military guard?"
Qiu Shenji said disdainfully: "You get your position by donating things!"
"It turns out that the position was donated by money. The Jiangnan gentry is indeed a cornucopia..."
Li Yan laughed.
After the death of Li Zhi's beloved concubine Xiao Shufei, the Lanling Xiao family withdrew from the center of power.
To be precise, the Jiangnan gentry were already marginalized and marginalized during this period. They had to wait until after the An-Shi Rebellion and the central government relied on blood transfusions from Jiangnan to get back on their feet.
At this stage, I am really so poor that all I have left is money.
"That is to say, my inner guard has just been established. Otherwise, how could such a scoundrel get into the position of martial virtue guard?"
Qiu Shenji was indignant and provoked: "But Yuanfang should be careful, Wu Dewei is the pinnacle of this person, and in order to stabilize his position, he will do everything possible to steal the credit."
Li Yan nodded: "We really need to be on guard against this kind of people. In my opinion, Brother Qiu, a great talent, how can he succumb to this person?"
Qiu Shenji was overjoyed: "How dare I claim to be talented in front of Yuan Fang? If I can learn a thing or two from Yuan Fang, that's enough, haha!"
At this time, the two of them happened to ride to the entrance of the academy again.
This time, it only lasted more than half an hour, and many students gathered together and were discussing.
Then I saw that Li Yuanfang, who was a classmate more than ten days ago and put on official uniform more than ten days later, appeared again.
Again?
Come on then!

…
【Achievement Point 1】
…
Li Yan gained another reputation and left gracefully under the envious and jealous gazes of his classmates.
Not far ahead, I met Kunda who was reviewing his lessons while walking.
Kangda didn't notice the official robe at first, but said happily: "Yuanfang, Brother An is coming out!"
Li Yan was stunned.
Although An Zhongjing did not commit any crime, a Tibetan spy appeared in his registered residence. This kind of thing is big or small. As a result, he went in the night before and was released from prison the next morning?
As expected of Wuwei An, the local emperor of Liangzhou, he can’t even act!
The Governor's Mansion is right next to the Yamen. When Li Yan and Qiu Shenji arrived, they happened to see a group of aristocratic family members gathering in bright clothes and angry horses. Wasn't the leader An Zhongjing?
When An Zhongjing saw Li Yan, he immediately came over and said, "Yuanfang! Thanks to you last night!"
Jia Sibo's face looked a little unnatural, and he also stepped forward to greet him: "Fortunately, Yuan Fang is smart and saw through the tricks of the Tibetan thieves... Huh?"
He looked at the official uniform and was dumbfounded: "Yuanfang, when did you become an official?"
Li Yandao: "I was specially recruited by the inner guard...and was awarded the rank of ninth-grade benevolent and brave captain!"
When he mentioned the inner guard, seeing Jia Sibo's confused face, he knew that the other party had not heard of it, so he changed his words temporarily.
Jia Sibo still didn't quite understand, and was a little more cautious: "Congratulations to Yuan Fang!"
An Zhongjing hugged Li Yan and said, "Yuanfang is such a genius, but it doesn't matter if he is only in the ninth rank. He will be prime minister at sunrise, so it's no big deal!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Yan smiled: "Brother Cheng'an, good luck!"
After meeting other members of the aristocratic family and seeing Li Yan and Qiu Shenji about to leave, An Zhongjing came over, pursed his lips, and asked in a low voice: "Is she okay?"
Li Yan knew that he was asking about Liniang, and thought that you were really in trouble, so he replied: "I can't say more, but as long as she explains, it shouldn't be difficult to save her life."
An Zhongjing sighed, feeling disappointed and said no more.
After bidding farewell to everyone, Li Yan went to the Dudu's Mansion next to him. The guards immediately saluted and respectfully welcomed them in.
Soon, the two came to the library.
This is an exquisite two-story building, lined with cupboards and books. There is a wooden ladder in the middle of the first floor, leading to the upper floor.
There is a couch under the second floor window, surrounded by several bookshelves. It is quiet, comfortable and well-lit, making it an excellent place for reading.
Li Yan was very satisfied and began to choose books.
He was more interested in the identity of Liniang Supi noble than the Tubo spies.
While he was in prison, he said that Su Pi would get worse as he lived in Tubo, but he was actually lying to him.
According to historical development, although this tribe changed its name, it was still known as the four inner tribes together with Yangtong, Dangxiang, and Tuyuhun. The Supi army became a powerful tool for Tubo's military expansion, and fought many battles in Helong and the Western Regions.
More importantly, Supi was also a large rear base for Tibet, and "the army's supplies and horses were half out of it."
After all, the land of the Daughter Country is very suitable for farming.
If you can instigate a high-ranking Supi official to alienate the relationship between this tribe and Tubo, that would be of greater significance than digging out a group of Tubo spies.
This is not a fantasy. According to the original history, during the Tianbao period of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the Supi royal family led their troops to defect to the Tang Dynasty. Unfortunately, they were discovered by Tubo, and more than 2,000 members of the royal family were killed.
More than ten years later, the Supi royal family came to surrender again, but they were still discovered. More than a thousand members of the royal family were killed, and only the prince himself fled to Longyou alone.
This shows that Su Pi was very important and suffered enough from being exploited by Tubo.
There are conflicts everywhere, let alone such annexed old tribes.
Li Yan picked out the books and placed them in Qiu Shenji's hands. Soon he was holding a thick stack of books and placed them on the study case.
At the top are Pei Ju's "Jinglue of the Western Regions" and Xuanzang's "Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty".
The following "Su Pi Guo Zhi", "Xiqiang Tong Yan" and "Wei Qi Zhi Yi" record the rituals and customs of foreign peoples.
Many of the books here have been lost to later generations.
What Li Yan is most interested in are these books.
He nodded to Qiu Shenji, sat down, and took notes with pen, ink, paper and inkstone while he read.
"Huh?"
Qiu Shenji looked at it and suddenly felt that the temperament of the person in front of him seemed to have changed.
Immerse yourself in the book, linger in the wonderful words, observe the past and present in a moment, and caress the world in a moment.
Under this kind of devotion, the yellow paper and ink in front of me seemed to exude a bitter fragrance, which gave me a learning atmosphere.
