Chapter 225: Recommend Yue Feng!!
Wu Zetian set up a banquet, Princess Taiping, Shangguan Wan'er was around her on the left and right, under the two of them, the kings of the Wu family, and the courtiers Li Zhaode, Yao Xuan, Ouyang Tong, Zong Qinke and Di Renjie were all listed.
Yue Feng's identity naturally didn't make it to such a seat, so Ling Huye didn't take him to the seat, but Miss Fluttershy was waiting for him outside.
"Her Royal Highness the princess gave a message to Her Majesty, saying that Lord Yue is good at cooking, Your Majesty is very interested, and wants to taste the craftsmanship of your Excellency, no, everything should be prepared for you, you only need to do it yourself!" Fluttershy says.
Yue Feng was stunned and speechless, he realized that there was a shortage of a cook for the banquet set up by Wu Zetian, and let Yue Feng come to be a cook for everyone!
Yue Feng was a little depressed in his heart, but at this moment he couldn't object, so he could only follow Fluttershy to a kitchen next to the Imperial Garden, and after entering, Yue Feng realized that the items placed here were actually the same outfits that Yue Feng had invented.
The fire on the barbecue is already vigorous, and there is also a stir-fry boiler, and the ingredients such as spicy, cumin, and fennel are also prepared.
Seeing these things, Yue Feng understood that these things were all moved from the Princess's Mansion! Li Lingyue, a woman, has really worked hard for this banquet!
Immediately, Yue Feng didn't care what Taiping was planning, and immediately calmed down and began to make a few dishes that he usually pressed at the bottom of the box......
At this time, at the banquet, the atmosphere was more active, especially the children of the Wu family, all of them were as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
Because Wu Zetian had just released the word, she was going to marry the princess again, and the candidate for the concubine was selected from among the children of the Wu family. No, all the Wu clan disciples on the scene have a chance, and the princess is now at the moment, how can they not behave?
The Wu family's children couldn't go directly to the princess, so Wu Zetian became the target of everyone's scramble, and Wu Zetian looked at his group of nephews and nephews, and was very satisfied.
In comparison, many ministers and prime ministers are much more reserved, and the prime ministers don't talk much, even if they occasionally say a few words, they greet each other, and the scene is a little strange.
Miaoman's palace maid shuttled between the banquets, and another steaming dish came up, but this dish was worn with a bamboo skewer, which seemed to be mutton, but exuded a fragrance that ordinary mutton did not have.
Everyone looked at this dish and looked at each other, Wu Zetian looked back at Shangguan Wan'er and said, "Wan'er, is this the craftsmanship of Yue Shilang?" ”
Shangguan Wan'er said: "Yes, Wan'er has also eaten this dish before, how about you taste it and see if you have a taste?" ”
Wu Zetian picked up the bamboo skewer with her hand, the way to eat was right, she slowly bit a small piece of mutton with her teeth, the mutton entrance, the fragrance exploded instantly, the refreshing feeling of burnt outside and tender inside, so that Wu Zetian could hardly stop, after eating a dish, she was still unsatisfied.
"Good, very good! I didn't expect it, I didn't expect Yue Shiro to have such a good strength, yes, very good! I'm so happy! "Wu Zetian said.
She raised her hand, looked around and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this dish in front of you is not ordinary, this dish is cooked by Keju Lang Yue Shilang himself, can you taste it?" ”
Everyone then tasted this dish, the taste of roast mutton was really delicious, everyone praised each other for a while, and even the group of taciturn prime ministers ate something, and they all exchanged their heads and ears, I have to say that there has never been such a skill in the cooking of the Tang Dynasty, even the Hu people have never had such a skill, and Yue Feng's barbecue patent has not been spread at present.
Seeing this scene, Taiping was quite proud in her heart, but her face was silent, she looked at Di Renjie in the distance. Di Renjie had just finished eating a skewer of barbecue, he wiped his mouth, stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, there is a sentence that Weichen doesn't know whether to say or not?"
Wu Zetian smiled and said: "Elder Di Guo has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it, I must listen carefully, I must listen to it!" ”
Di Renjie said: "Wechen heard all kinds of rumors in the court today, most of them are related to Yue Shilang, it is said that the courtiers in the court actually recommended to His Majesty and recommended Yue Shilang as the Luoyang Order!"
Weichen thought that since Yue Shilang was Keju Lang, it was just a joke and entertainment, Luoyang Ling was a key position related to the country's society, and it was an important position that needed to be a vicar for the Son of Heaven, what is Yue Shilang's identity? How could he hold such an important position? ”
"Coax!" As soon as Di Renjie said this, the audience was in an uproar, and everyone looked at each other, thinking that Yue Feng was the Luoyang Order? Whose recommendation is this?
Since Wu Zetian changed the dynasty, the power of Zhuwu has been unprecedentedly strengthened, and the balance of power above the court has been faintly broken. The former powerful prime minister system is now at a disadvantage, and among the power of the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, the most important right is to appoint officials.
The Tang Dynasty prime minister system is composed of three departments: Wenchang Pavilion and Luantai Fengge, each of which performs its own duties, and any government decree appointment must probably go through the three departments, in this case, as long as the prime minister's camp is united, it is enough to cause great checks and balances on the imperial power!
Recently, Wu Chenghe, Wu Sansi and others have been crowned kings, and the speed at which they cultivate power in all aspects has also accelerated, so the conflict with other prime ministers has become increasingly intense. Against this backdrop, the first round of confrontation between them and the prime minister has begun.
Among them, the candidate of Luoyang Ling is the focus of the recent confrontation between the two sides, Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi of the Wu clan have their preferred candidates, and Li Zhaode and others in the prime minister's camp also have their own candidates.
Luoyang Ling is almost a position that everyone must fight for, for no other reason, because this position is really too important. There are a total of eight counties under Luozhou, of which Luoyang County is the territory where the Shendu is located, and the Luoyang Order is in charge of the affairs of the Shendu Luoyang. Therefore, although Luoyang Ling's official position is not high, because he single-handedly controls nearly one million people and resources in the capital, this position is often particularly sensitive.
The Wu clan's disciples fight for the Luoyang Order, on the one hand, they want to win substantial benefits, on the other hand, they don't need to show the most ugly appearance, the most important point is that this official position itself is not big, and they have a great hope of victory, because of these various reasons, the Wu clan's children are determined to win this position!
Di Renjie suddenly made a shocking statement at this time, saying that someone proposed to let Yue Shilang be the commander of Luoyang, and suddenly pulled out this fiercely contested issue.
Wu Zetian frowned slightly, and said, "Elder Di Guo, where did you hear about these messages?" I'll tell you the truth, I don't even know about it! ”
Li Zhaode laughed and said, "Your Majesty, you are fortunate not to know, if you do, I am afraid you will laugh off your big teeth." Yue Shilang and his people, if they don't learn and don't have skills, they rely on Keju to win His Majesty's favor, if these people become the Luoyang Order, I am afraid that the people will be in dire straits, and the majesty of the country and society will also be covered with dust! ”
Wu Zetian frowned slightly, she was obviously uncomfortable with Li Zhaode's words, she didn't say that she would let Yue Feng serve as the Luoyang Commander, saying that she hadn't heard of this, what did Li Zhaode mean by this? Do you want to force yourself not to use people?
As soon as she thought of this, there was a faint anger in her heart, and she thought of Yue Feng again, Yue Feng is very mature and old, and his understanding is extremely high, such a person Wu Zetian already appreciates it from the bottom of his bones.
It's just that there are too many talents in Datang, Yue Feng is not Wu Zetian's cronies after all, in addition, Wu Zetian has been thinking about the matter of ascending the throne and changing the Yuan every day recently, where can he pay attention to Yue Feng?
However, now, today, she suddenly thought of Yue Feng, and she couldn't help but feel a move in her heart, she looked around, looked at the martial disciples, and said, "Who among you recommended Yue Feng to be the Luoyang Order?" Tell me about it, let me hear it? ”
The audience was silent, and just when everyone thought that no one could answer, Wu Sansi suddenly stepped forward and said, "Back to Your Majesty, Sansi recommends Yue Feng to be the Luoyang Order!" Your Majesty doesn't know that Yue Feng is really a strange person! He is not only a master of Keju, but also extremely talented, enough to shepherd the people for the Son of Heaven.
Wu Sansi and Yue Feng are actually just one side, and the two sides can't talk about understanding, but this piece of cake in front of him, Wu Sansi thought carefully, no matter who won between the Wu clan and the prime minister's camp, it is estimated that it is not too big a matter with him Wu Sansi!
Because the person selected by Wu Sansi is destined to not be able to ascend to the throne, Wu Chenghe, a son of the Wu family, now controls most of the resources, where will it be the turn to get Wu Sansi's cronies to take the position?
Since this is the case, now that Di Renjie has mentioned Yue Feng again, Wu Sansi immediately thought that this Yue Feng and he had a good conversation before, and he was a worthy object.
Looking at today's banquet again, it was originally plain, but suddenly there was a very interesting dish, and the person who made this proposal was Princess Taiping, what does this mean? This shows that Princess Taiping has known Yue Shilang for a long time, and she has also tasted Yue Feng's cooking!
Wu Sansi still wants to be able to hold a beauty in his mind now, and at this time, he recommends Yue Feng to maybe be able to vote for a beauty!
Wu Sansi immediately praised Yue Feng, although Wu Sansi was ambitious and talented, but he was really not good at other skills, and his mouth was really sharp.
What is Wu Sansi Kuayue Peak? Naturally, it is not a game, but it involves all kinds of strategies and wisdom, as for Li Zhaode saying that Yue Feng has no talent, Wu Sansi is even more scoffing, and he hyped Wu Zetian's amazing move to promote talents.
The talents of the Tang Dynasty are not those scholars who are all day long, there are many capable ministers who are not from Jinshi, Yue Feng is young, and his means and strategies are so high, it is when Sheji needs to employ people, how can he not use it?
Wu Sansi's praise made Wu Zetian feel very good, and Wu Sansi's move was inevitably fiercely opposed by the prime minister. The prime ministers' words were fierce, and the other Wu clan's disciples couldn't stand it anymore, so they all stepped forward one after another, and even Wu Chenghei expressed his praise for Yue Feng, and the two sides actually did it directly on this issue, and the banquet was instantly filled with the smell of gunpowder......
