Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 112
Yan Zhu and Dongfang Shuo entered office almost at the same time, and their methods were similar, but Yan Zhu's official career was obviously smoother than Dongfang Shuo's.Dongfang Shuo was a Lang Guan who carried eucalyptus outside the Sima Gate. He only had a bag of millet a month, 240 yuan, and he couldn't even eat enough.However, Yan Zhu is already a doctor in the middle school, with a rank of two thousand stones. Not only can he have no worries about food and clothing, but he can also ride in Zhu Liangfan's flag car.

Dongfang Shuo acted like a rascal in front of Liang Xiao, robbing openly and secretly, and doing everything he could.Yan Zhu was quite majestic in front of Liang Xiao, speaking and smiling seriously, and even a little critical in his eyes.

"You are Liang Xiao?"

"My lord, this is Liang Xiao." Facing Yan Zhu's suspicious eyes, Liang Xiao hurriedly stepped forward to salute, not daring to be rude.

"General Li is really relieved that he actually sent a young man who is not weak."

Seeing that Yan Zhu was unhappy and mentioned Li Guang in words, Li Jiao hurried forward to explain. "My lord, when I go to Kuaiji, I might face Liang Xiao's master. Apart from my father, only Liang Xiao is familiar with him in Weiyang Lang's office. Sending Liang Xiao is also for the sake of my lord's safety."

Yan Zhu's face paled, he didn't say anything, he turned his head away, and never looked at Liang Xiao again.

Li Jiao was a little unhappy, so he yelled softly: "Liang Xiao, let's go ahead and guide." He shook the reins and urged the horse to gallop forward.Liang Xiao didn't dare to neglect, he urged the green horse, and followed Li Jiao forward.The guide is the doctor who walks at the front of the team, has the task of clearing the road and reconnaissance, and is second only to Yan Zhu, who personally protects his safety.

Langguan is a general term, and there is a difference between superiority and inferiority.

People like Liang Xiao, Li Jiao, etc. are the guards of the palace gates and belong to the lowest rank of Lang officials. They can only be on duty outside the palace gate. The Wei is under the leadership and cannot enter the palace.

Entering the palace, those who are on duty outside the palace are called Langzhong, with a rank ratio of three hundred stones. They are middle-level Lang officials and are under the command of Lang Zhongling.

The highest rank is the Zhonglang who attends the emperor, with a rank ratio of six hundred stones. In addition to protecting, those people are more likely to provide advice to the emperor at any time, and most of them are scholars.Because they are close to the emperor, they have the most opportunities for promotion and the best prospects. Once they are sent abroad, they will at least be a county magistrate.

Yan Zhu was sent as an envoy, besides a foreigner like Liang Xiao, there were also two Langzhong who were on duty in the palace, that is, Wei Qing and Qin Ge whom Liang Xiao knew.They are around Yan Zhu, never leaving, they are not only personal bodyguards, but also a status symbol, while Liang Xiao and others can only be responsible for the outer security.

Although the guide is hard, it can stay away from Yan Zhu.Li Jiao took Liang Xiao as a tour guide, apparently because he didn't want Yan Zhu to hear them talking.

"Yan Zhu is a straight man, he wins officials by kissing his lips." Li Jiao said with contempt. "Although these people were rich and honored once, they have no confidence, and they think highly of themselves, and look down on warriors like us. You become an official under age, and it is easy to make people jealous. There will be some gossip, so don't take it to heart."

Liang Xiao tilted his head, looked at Li Jiao, and chuckled lightly: "Thank you Brother Li for reminding me, I understand. I won't take those words seriously." He understood what Li Jiao meant.Li Danghu was very tight-lipped and did not disclose the matter of "Pingyanghou". Li Jiao thought that he became an official because of Li Danghu's recommendation and Li Guang's appreciation, so he regarded Yan Zhu's provocation against him as an attack on the Li family. provocative.

However, there are probably not a few people who hold this view.In the Han Dynasty, there were many examples of minors becoming officials, but most of them joined the army or worked as small officials in counties and counties. There are absolutely a few people like him who became Weiyang Lang at the age of 16. It is only logical that he was misunderstood and left the Li family. .

Liang Xiao didn't explain.He can understand Yan Zhu's mood. There is not only contempt for Li Guang and other warriors, but also jealousy towards him.

This psychology is very strange.Facing Li Guang, who has fought for half his life and is famous all over the world, but now he is only a guard of two thousand stones, Yan Zhu can be very proud.But facing the underage Liang Xiao who became Weiyang Lang just because of the appreciation of Li's father and son, Yan Zhu couldn't restrain his jealousy.What made Liang Xiao even more interesting was that not only did Yan Zhu not intend to hide this mentality, but he also expressed it clearly when they met.

I really don't know whether to call him straightforward or naive.However, Yan Zhu is not the only one like this, Han people don't seem to like to hide their likes and dislikes very much.The same goes for plum peppers.As Weiyang Lang's chief, he does not accompany Yan Zhu before and after, but acts as a guide, which in itself is an expression of "I am very upset".Liang Xiao didn't look back, but he estimated that Yan Zhu's mood and complexion would not be very good.

Even Liu Ling could see this discomfort.Liu Ling was waiting outside the post gate of Bacheng, and when she saw Liang Xiao and Li Jiao coming side by side, Li Jiao had a displeased face, so she smiled.She winked at Liang Xiao, and when she waited for Yan Zhu's car to pass by her, she raised her voice and called out, "Mr. Yan, can you take a step to speak?"

Yan Zhu was sitting upright, not looking sideways, but when he saw Liu Ling's chariot and horses parked by the side of the road, he didn't pretend to be serious.Hearing Liu Ling's words, he patted Che Shi lightly, signaled the driver to stop, leaned his body slightly, and bowed to Liu Ling in salute.

"I don't know what advice the old master has. The assistant has a mission and cannot stay for a long time. Please forgive me, the old master."

Liu Ling said with a smile: "Yan Jun is going on an envoy under the emperor's order. How dare Ling disturb him. I just want to ask if the envoy is willing to go with you. The journey is boring, and I want to accompany Yan Jun to talk about poetry and prose. Is it possible?"

Yan Zhu laughed. "Being able to walk with Weng Master and listen to Weng Master discussing the world's major events is also a joy in life. Help is beyond asking. Weng Master, please go first."

Liu Ling smiled.Inviting Yan Zhen to her car, Yan Zhu readily agreed, and immediately changed cars, sharing the same car with Liu Ling, talking and laughing happily.

Liang Xiao was very strange.Doesn't Yan Zhu know how to avoid suspicion?As the envoy of the Son of Heaven, he was traveling in the same car with the Weng Lord of Huainan, chatting and laughing happily, even an ordinary Lang official like him knew it was wrong, so he didn't have any taboos?This political EQ is really worrying.

Although he didn't take Yan Zhu's actions seriously, Liang Xiao was neither qualified nor interested in reminding Yan Zhu.He followed Li Jiao all the way, practicing riding skills while listening to Li Jiao explain some routines.Guarding the gate of the palace and escorting the envoys are only part of their duties. Once the emperor goes on a tour, they have to accompany him. There are many regulations in it. Liang Xiao knows nothing about it. He just took this opportunity to learn from Li Jiao, just like learning archery from Li Danghu Same.

The task was urgent, Liang Xiao and others traveled all the way in a hurry, at least three homes (ninety miles) away every day, and sometimes even four or five homes.In less than 20 days, they arrived in Huainan country.

Liu An, the king of Huainan, went to the border to greet Yan Zhu in person. He was very enthusiastic about Yan Zhu. He brought Yan Zhu into Shouchun City and arranged him in a post house.

Yan Zhu went to the banquet in the Huainan Prince's Mansion, and was protected by Wei Qing and Qin Ge, Liang Xiao and other Weiyang Langs were not qualified to attend the hall, so they could only accompany them in the courtyard below the steps.Listening to Yan Zhu's high-spirited talk, Liang Xiao secretly shook his head.

At this moment, Wu Bei from the Huainan Prince's Mansion came out holding a wine glass, and toasted Wei Yanglang who was sitting in the court. After toasting Li Jiao, Wu Bei stood still in front of Liang Xiao, raised his wine glass, and smiled slightly.

"Liang Jun, it's really not easy to invite you to Huainan Palace for a meeting."
