Song Shou recommended Wang Zeng, Li Zhang found that Zhao Zhen did not show the slightest surprised expression, which made him immediately understand, it seems that this is a scene played by Zhao Zhen and Song Shou, it is nothing more than because after Li Di was eliminated, Zhao Zhen hoped that someone in the court could contain Lu Yijian, so he thought of Wang Zeng's big Buddha.

Li Zhang can guess the above, and Lu Yijian, the old fox in the officialdom, can naturally guess it, so at this time, everyone else is looking at Lu Yijian, waiting to see his reaction, but Lu Yijian smiled calmly at this time: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the prince is far superior to the minister in terms of both qualifications and prestige, if the prince is willing to return to Beijing, the minister is willing to give up the position of prime minister and live under the prince!" ”

For Lu Yijian's on-the-spot reaction, Li Zhang couldn't help but secretly exclaim, this move to retreat is simply wonderful, on the surface, Zhao Zhen just wanted to summon Wang Zeng to take over Xue Kui's position, but with Wang Zeng's qualifications, maybe Zhao Zhen really wanted to use Wang Zeng to replace Lu Yijian, but now Lu Yijian took the initiative to give way, which made Zhao Zhen embarrassed.

Sure enough, I saw Zhao Zhen smile with some embarrassment at this time: "Lu Aiqing doesn't have to be too humble, you have worked hard in the position of prime minister all these years, and I have seen it in my eyes, and I will definitely not forget Aiqing's contributions!" ”

Zhao Zhen's words not only affirmed Lu Yijian's merits, but also stabilized his position as prime minister, some people who wanted to see the excitement also showed disappointed expressions, while Li Zhang next to him showed a faint smile, Wang Zeng is not Li Di, if he returns to Beijing, Lu Yijian will have one more strong enemy, but I don't know what attitude Lu Yijian should take to face Wang Zeng?

Lu Yijian did not object, Wang Zeng's entry into the dynasty was almost a foregone conclusion, and Zhao Zhen immediately asked people to draw up a decree, and today's deliberations were finally over, Lu Yijian and others also retired one after another, Li Zhang also wanted to leave, but found that Zhao Zhen gave him a look, which made him understand immediately, so he stayed in the end and did not leave.

After everyone else left, Zhao Zhen asked the surrounding servants to retreat, and then the whole person seemed to be completely relaxed, and suddenly sat down on the dragon chair, and smiled bitterly at Li Zhang: "It's really tiring, I used to think that the most tired thing was to deal with government affairs, but now I find out that the most tired thing is to intrigue with these ministers, and it is not easy to be an emperor!" ”

"Those who can work hard, I think Your Majesty is learning very quickly, and even Lu Xiang praised His Majesty for his rapid progress in private." Li Zhang said with a smile at this time, Zhao Zhen complained to him that being the emperor was tired not once or twice, but he was born to be the emperor's life, and no one could change this.

"This time the prince entered Beijing, Lu Xiang is probably not very happy, I heard that he and the prince have also had some unpleasantness." Zhao Zhen smiled again at this time, Lu Yijian has a sleek personality, and Wang Zeng and Li Di are both people with square personalities and have their own principles for doing things, which also leads to their dislike of Lu Yijian very much, but when Liu E was in power, it was Lu Yijian who had the last laugh.

"Your Majesty wants to arrange a person in the court who can contain Lu Xiang, with my understanding of him, he will definitely not like it, and may even do some things, although the prince has high prestige, but after all, he has been away from the court for many years, I am worried that he will follow in the footsteps of Young Master Li." I saw that Li Zhang thought about it for a while at this time, and directly picked out the words.

"Young Master Li does disappoint me a little, but the prince is not Young Master Li, he was able to defeat Ding Wei in the first place, he shouldn't have easily fallen for Lu Xiang's calculations, right?" Zhao Zhen also frowned when he heard Li Zhang's words, but he was also a little unconfident when he said the end, after all, he had also seen Lu Yijian's methods, Wang Zeng was now old, and he didn't know whether he could still balance Lu Yijian.

"It's hard to say, maybe it will end up being a lose-lose situation." Li Zhang finally suddenly sighed and said, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there will be fights, which cannot be avoided in any era.

"This can't be done, Lu Yijian is indeed a prime minister, I need him to help me manage the court, the prince also has great contributions to the country, I transferred him back to Beijing this time to entrust him with a heavy responsibility, and I don't want them to fight to the death." Zhao Zhen heard Li Zhang's words and immediately spoke again, although he wanted to use Wang Zeng to contain Lu Yijian, but it was only to contain him, if the two of them fought to the death, it would go against his original intention.

"This ......" Li Zhang secretly smiled bitterly when he heard this, as long as the battle in the court started, it could no longer stop, and this was not a party dispute, just a struggle between two ministers, if it developed into a later party dispute, it would be even more terrifying, the entire empire would be exhausted in the party struggle, and in the end, others only needed to push it lightly outside, and the seemingly huge empire would collapse.

"Cousin, I think the prince is a person with a sense of the overall situation, and he shouldn't take the initiative to provoke a fight with Lu Xiang, but Lu Xiang seems to be generous, but in fact he doesn't like to be restrained, so I'm also most worried about him, cousin, you have some friendship with Lu Xiang, it's better to admonish him then, so as not to get out of control." Zhao Zhen pondered for a moment at this time, and spoke again.

"This is a solution, and then it will depend on whether Lu Xiang and the prince can restrain their temper!" Li Zhang also nodded when he heard this, but it was a little too risky to rely on the minister's private morality for such a big matter.

"By the way, Miao Yuan has moved to her princess's mansion, and she rarely comes back during this time, how is her life now, and there is also a raccoon, and she lives with you and does not return to the palace, and the queen mother has asked about the raccoon dog more than once." After chatting about business, Zhao Zhen suddenly asked about the situation of his two younger sisters.

"Miao Yuan is very good, most of them stay in the mansion, and sometimes they go to my place to sit, as for the raccoon dog, she goes to her princess's mansion every day, and now the buildings in the mansion have been almost built, and it is estimated that she also wants to move in as soon as possible." Li Zhang replied immediately, but when he talked about Miao Yuan, his face also looked a little unnatural.

"Cousin, remind the raccoon dog and let her go back to the palace once in a while, so as not to worry about the queen mother." Zhao Zhen nodded when he heard this, he was too busy, and he usually didn't have time to take care of these two younger sisters, so he could only let Li Zhang do it for him.

"Haha, in fact, the raccoon dog also complained to me, saying that my aunt is now only thinking about the child in the queen's womb, and she doesn't remember her daughter." Li Zhang also smiled at this time.

mentioned that he was about to give birth to a child, Zhao Zhen was also immediately interested, and immediately pulled Li Zhang to talk for a long time, and even learned from Li Zhang, after all, he did not have any experience in taking care of children, although this child did not need him to take care of it personally, but Zhao Zhen, who was a father for the first time, was inevitably very nervous.
