Chapter 527: Suzaku Tower
Suzaku House, one of the largest restaurants in the capital, is named because it is located near Suzaku Gate, and this restaurant has many specialties, especially local dishes made in Tokyo. Today is the tenth day, but Li Zhang came to the restaurant at noon, and he had already asked people to book a box on the second floor here, because today he was going to have a banquet for a distinguished guest.
Not long after Li Zhang came to the box, soon the guests he invited came, and he saw that the person who came in was about fifty years old, dressed in a cyan robe, with a long figure and good facial features, and three long beards under his chin, who was Lu Yijian, the first minister of the Great Song Dynasty.
"Lu Xiang is here, please take a seat!" Li Zhang saw Lu Yijian come in, immediately stood up and smiled, and then ordered someone to serve the food, and after a while, the two of them were full of Vermilion Bird Building's specialty dishes, and then Li Zhang asked everyone to retreat.
"Why did Li Duwei suddenly think of inviting the old man to dinner, and he specially invited me to come to the Vermilion Bird Tower, I'm afraid there is no purpose, right?" I saw Lu Yijian sit down at this time and asked directly.
"Haha~, I know that I can't hide it from Lu Xiang!" Li Zhang also laughed at this time, and then personally poured a glass of wine for the other party before he continued, "Suzaku Tower in front of Suzaku Gate, farewell in front of the building makes people sad, these two sayings are known to almost the entire city of Tokyo." ”
Suzaku Gate is the south main gate of Tokyo City, when many people leave the capital, relatives and friends come to see off will set up a send-off banquet in Suzaku Tower, of course, because the consumption of Suzaku Tower is not low, people who can come here to see off are either rich or expensive, and Suzaku Tower is also famous for making local dishes, over time, Suzaku Lou banquet will have an extra layer of farewell meaning.
"What, Captain Li, are you leaving the capital recently?" Lu Yijian asked again at the moment, there are so many restaurants in Tokyo City, Li Zhang just covered up the Suzaku Tower to hold a banquet, but he had no plans to leave Beijing, so the only explanation was that Li Zhang was leaving Beijing recently, maybe there was something to take care of himself?
"Lu Xiang misunderstood, I have no plans to leave Beijing, it's just that I recently watched the sky at night and found that Lu Xiang may have to leave Beijing recently, and I may not be able to spare time when I arrive, so I set up a banquet in Suzaku Tower in advance to see off Lu Xiang!" Li Zhang smiled again at the moment, now his face is much thicker, and he will open his mouth to talk nonsense.
Lu Yijian naturally didn't believe that Li Zhang knew how to observe any celestial phenomena, but he knew Li Zhang's personality and knew that the other party would never be untargeted, so he couldn't help frowning at this time and said: "Li Duwei might as well say it directly, don't make such a big detour!" ”
Li Zhang actually doesn't like this kind of bibliographic speech, but the relationship between him and Lu Yijian is delicate, and he can't speak too directly, otherwise the other party may not be able to accept it, so he can only make this decision.
I saw Li Zhang eat a mouthful of food at this time, and then he put down his chopsticks and sighed: "I heard that Wang Xiang has been very suppressed by Lu Xiang recently, and now everyone says that although Lu Xiang is Wang Xiang's descendant, he is green out of the blue, and he pressed Wang Xiang to death, I don't know if these are facts?" ”
"These are other people's rumors, I am dedicated to the public as the prime minister, and I will never oppress people with power!" Lu Yijian didn't expect Li Zhang to ask these questions in front of him, and then he denied it, of course he would not admit that he had suppressed Wang Zeng.
"It's normal for Lu Xiang not to admit it, but I sometimes think, Lu Xiang is smart, why would he be confused about the matter of Wang Xiang?" Li Zhang's denial of Lu Yijian was not surprising, but he seemed to be talking to himself at this time.
"What do you mean, Captain Li, do you know something?" Lu Yijian frowned again at the moment and said, if others said these words, he might be annoyed and angry, or even walk away, but Li Zhang is different, he is Zhao Zhen's cousin, and Zhao Zhen's most trusted person, if the entire Great Song Dynasty wants to find someone who knows Zhao Zhen best, I'm afraid there will be no second candidate except Li Zhang, so Lu Yijian also wondered if Li Zhang knew something from Zhao Zhen at this time?
Li Zhang didn't explain directly at this time, but took a bite of food again before he said again: "Actually, Lu Xiang is a smart person, and he can understand His Majesty's intentions when he uses it, and it will be okay if Young Master Li was forced away before, but if Wang Xiang is forced away again, Lu Xiang, what do you think Your Majesty will think at that time?" ”
"This" Lu Yijian was also shocked when he heard this, and immediately sat up straight, his personality was indeed a little domineering, Li Di took the initiative to move on him before, so he designed to force the other party away, and although Wang Zeng did not make a move on him, it made him feel threatened, so Lu Yijian also wanted to force Wang Zeng out of the court like he did before to force Li Di away, but he forgot Zhao Zhen's attitude towards this matter.
In fact, with Lu Yijian's wisdom, there was no need to ignore such an obvious thing, but as the so-called power is charming, he only thinks about the power in the middle, and naturally ignores other things, Zhao Zhen can tolerate him forcing Li Di away, but he will never tolerate him forcing Wang Zeng away, if he really insists on Wang Zeng, in the end, whether it is right or wrong, I am afraid that he, the prime minister, will be the head, and then he is likely to be demoted out of the capital as Li Zhang said.
Seeing Lu Yijian's contemplative Nirvana, Li Zhang smiled again and said: "According to the news I just got, Your Majesty recently wants to crown the king as the right servant and the servant of the door, Pingzhangshi, Jixian Hall scholar, and the Duke of Yi, and I don't need to say more about the intention!" ”
Lu Yijian was shocked again when he heard Li Zhang's words, he is the prime minister, and the prime minister has another official title, that is, the Pingzhangshi of the Tongzhongshu Menxia, which is also the official position that Wang Zeng held before, and now Zhao Zhen intends to crown Wang Zeng as the right servant and the servant of the door, Pingzhangshi, the position is already quite close to him, coupled with his suppression of Wang Zeng during this time, it is obvious that Zhao Zhen is supporting Wang Zeng, and it is also a warning to him.
"Thank you Captain Li for the reminder!" Thinking of the above, Lu Yijian immediately came to his senses, and then solemnly saluted Li Zhang, although he suspected that Li Zhang might have said these things to himself out of Zhao Zhen's meaning, but in any case, he had written down this favor.
"Haha~, in fact, even if I don't say these things, with Lu Xiang's wisdom, I must be able to think of it, everyone said that Ding Wei was wise and scheming, but in my opinion, he only had an oblique and no overall situation, and in the end, he was burned, and Lu Xiang was one of the heroes who brought down Ding Wei at the beginning, so I won't say much about some things!" Li Zhang said this and poured Lu Yijian a glass of wine again.
Hearing Li Zhang's comparison with Ding Wei, Lu Yijian also smiled bitterly, although he would not fall into Ding Wei's fate, but it did remind him that he had indeed committed some imperial taboos before, but it was ridiculous that he was blinded by power and didn't see the current situation clearly.
