Li Cangyu looked up and saw that it was a middle-aged man who seemed quite familiar...

I remembered that I had seen Cen Shen in Niannuzhai.

I don’t care about much anymore, I can only take a gamble!

"Mr. Cen saves me!"

Li Cangyu pulled off the masked black scarf on his face, and an arrow was inserted behind him, and he rolled off his horse in a rather embarrassed manner.

Cen Shen was washing by the well in the yard. Fortunately, he was a person who had visited the battlefield and saw the world. If ordinary people encountered this situation, they would have been so scared that they would have screamed in shock. Hearing Li Cangyu say that, he calmly and vigilantly stepped forward and took a look. "You are very handsome, how could you know me?"

"I am Jinwuyou Li Cangyu!... Zhang Xu and Zhang Changshi, disciple!"

"It's you?" Cen Shen said in surprise, "I was drinking with Zhang Changshi in Zhongnan Mountain the day before yesterday and talked about you!"

"Mr. Cen, let's say a long story--help me!"

There had been a burst of shouts from Wu Hou and the bad guys outside the courtyard.

Cen Shen took a deep breath, stepped forward and held the horse's reins, "Come with me!"

He took Li Cangyu to the backyard stable, first hid the Taoist, and tied the two horses to his stable. Then, while Li Cangyu was not paying attention, he suddenly covered his mouth and drove the arrow behind him with one hand.

Li Cangyu stared at her eyes and gritted her teeth without screaming, but she felt a heart-wrenching pain, and her soul was about to fly out of the sky!

"Ha, pull out two taels of meat with one arrow." Cen Shen looked at the arrow and was still in a mood to joke. "I have been in the Western Army for several years, but I haven't learned other skills. I'm still an expert in drawing arrows."

Wo Ri, this is still called an expert!...Li Cangyu is really crying!

"Let's rest on the pile of firewood!" Cen Shen said this and moved into the house.

Li Cangyu found that there seemed to be no one in his family, so he was the only one. This time he followed Gao Xianzhi back to the Chaoxianjie, and probably his family did not come to Chang'an with him.

Li Cangyu lay down, and Cen Shen decisively and quickly cut his clothes on his back, cleaned up the blood, and sprinkled a lot of medicine on his wound to stop the blood, and then bandaged him with clean gauze.

After sprinkling the powder, Li Cangyu grinned again, feeling that half of his body was about to numb. He stood up and arched his hand with difficulty, "Thank you, sir."

"Change your clothes, I'll wait for you in the front room." Cen Shen threw him a round-necked shirt and left first.

Li Cangyu gasped for a long time before he recovered. He thought, "It's different for a scholar who has been a Jun... If he met a guy like Wei Jiansu, I would be finished today!"

After changing into his clothes, Li Cangyu packed up his instrument, tried hard to adjust his condition, and walked to the front house.

Under the big tree beside the well, Cen Shen actually put up a lantern, arranged a chessboard for Go, sat on pudding, tea and other things, waiting for him.

Li Cangyu smiled knowingly and sat opposite him.

The two started playing chess.

"I will never thank you for your kindness." Li Cangyu said while making a move, "I will be rewarded in the future!"

"In this way, I'll see you." Cen Shen said calmly, relaxed and calmly, "Cen has seen your thin gold thousand-character essay in Zhang Changshi, and has also tried to copy a few strokes, which is quite interesting. I didn't expect that you could actually make a unique calligraphy master at a young age. It's rare. I have to let Cen respect you!"

"Shame, ashamed!" Li Cangyu said while making a move, "Slim gold characters, the font is quite frivolous, and the sharpness of the strokes is revealed and there is a killing spirit. It is difficult to be loved by the world, and it will not become the mainstream of calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty. At most, it can only be used by some favored people for fun."

"Huh?" Cen Shen couldn't help but lit up, "It's rare that you can evaluate your calligraphy so objectively."

"People are more likely to know themselves." Li Cangyu smiled, "Actually, I rarely use that font in my daily life. Writing is inconvenient and too show-off."

"Yes, among the young people, there are few people who are as humble as you." Cen Shen smiled, "Cen seems to understand why Zhang Changshi is quite fond of you, a young disciple, and he always talks about it."

After chatting for a few minutes, the door of Cen Shen’s house was smashed, “Open the door! Open the door! Wu Hou checked, open the door quickly!”

The two exchanged a glance, and Cen Shen walked up to open the door.

Six or seven Wuhou rushed in at once, "Did you see a man riding a horse injured and break into the yard?"

"I played chess with my friend all night, but I heard the warning sounds from the outdoors, but I didn't see any idle people breaking in." Cen Shen replied calmly.

Several martial masters walked in and looked around for a while, and stared at Li Cangyu.

"You, stand up!" they shouted loudly.

Li Cangyu slowly stood up and reached into his arms.

"Don't move!" Wu Hou thought he was going to take out some hidden weapon, so he shouted loudly and even pulled out his knife.

Li Cangyu lit up Jinwu Youzi's token and shouted with an unhappy face, "It disturbed my elegance. I just thought about your official duties. I still dare to draw my sword at me!"

The warriors were stunned on the spot and hurriedly bowed, "I don't know if you are here, how offensive it is!"

"roll!"

A group of Wuhou bowed in timidly and fled in a hurry.

Cen Shen closed the door and walked back to sit down, laughing, "The arrogant Wu Hou saw You Zi, but he was like a mouse meeting a cat. This is really interesting."

"It's thanks to sir." Li Cangyu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If I was caught, even if I had ten iron signs on me, it would be unreal."

"What's going on?" Cen Shen asked in a low voice, "Where is the person in the bag?"

"I'm investigating an important case. That person is an important witness." Li Cangyu said, "It's a long story. In short, this witness must not make any mistakes. I must take it away!"

"The wind is so tight outside now, how can you take the person away?" Cen Shen frowned and pondered for a moment, and said, "Why not do this. If you can trust me, just hide the witness in me for the time being. Anyway, Cen is still idle and has never been anywhere recently, so he stays at home to guard this important witness for you."

Li Cangyu pondered that his life was saved by the other party, so what else could he trust?

"I will definitely trust you sir!" Li Cangyu bowed, but his teeth were grinning in pain.

"Don't move!" Cen Shen laughed, "This is the Western Army's injury medicine. It has excellent hemostasis and muscle growth effect, but it's painful!"

Li Cangyu sucked a cool air hissing and asked, "Why are you free to have nothing to do? You and General Gao returned to the court to show their victory, and have you not been granted a new official position yet?"

Cen Shen smiled, his expression was quite depressed, "It's not easy!"

Four words express all the bitterness.

Li Cangyu also sighed for him in his heart. Cen Shen was a Jinshi with a very valuable background. His great-grandfather was Cen Wenben, the prime minister of the Taizong Dynasty. His father was also a governor. He was also a famous poet.

Logically speaking, Cen Shen should easily get into the officialdom and get into the news.

However, the Tang Dynasty court controlled by Li Linfu was the one who was the one who was like Cen Shen, and it was the most difficult to make a comeback.

Because what Li Linfu feared most was a scholar like Cen Shen who had both background, fame and talent. Once such a person was appreciated by the emperor, he might have the potential to impact his position as Li Linfu.

So Li Linfu has been vigorously advocating and promoting uneducated Hu people to become border generals, which is the prerequisite for An Lushan and other generations to be developed.

In the court, all ministers who did not surrender to Li Linfu must be excluded and suppressed. This has led to many aspiring and talented people like Cen Shen who have no way to serve the country and can only turn to the command of the governor to be his aides. As a result, the quality of officials in the court has continued to decline, and those who are flattering and those who are vassal of Li Linfu have successively gained power.

The truly talented people were not used by the country, but were left under the command of the Jiedushi and became private retainers of the Jiedushi.

The Tang Dynasty was not only military power, but also financial power was constantly absorbed by the Jiedushi, and the loss of talents was also a crucial reason. The national court continued to weaken, and the Jiedushi continued to grow...

The outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion was inevitable by chance!
