Chapter 344 Dinner
(Thanks to the truth of the past, home payment, 18991899 for the support, thank you!)
After reading the last official document, Yi Feng put down his pen and looked at the time. It was already dark and night fell. It was almost time for supper.◇↓ He moved his stiff neck a few times, walked out of the study and looked towards Meilin. He suddenly felt a little worried about Yuwen Yubo.
Since Yuwen Yubo crossed the wall and entered the mansion and was left by him, he placed her in the hospital in Meilin, but he had not been there a few times. Yuwen Yubo was also very low-key. After moving into Meilin, he changed his usual habits and did not go out all day long. Even other places in the mansion were not there. After hearing the report arranged for her maids, Yi Feng had to admit that it was a bit difficult and also believed that she was not just running away from home in anger.
Yi Feng felt a little apologized. In front of the emperor, he did not fight for her, and easily compromised and agreed to send her back to Princess Guangping's Mansion.
He wanted to find an opportunity to compensate, but after thinking about it, he walked towards Meilin alone. As soon as he entered the small yard, Yuwen Yubo raised his head and looked at him calmly.
"Have you used supper?"
Yuwen Yubo shook his head: "Not yet." Yi Feng said with the flow: "I haven't eaten yet, so I'll treat you to eat together."
Yuwen Yubo shook his head and said, "No, I don't have an appetite, I don't want to eat it." Yi Feng didn't expect her to refuse so simply. He was stunned for a moment and smiled: "People are iron rice and steel. If you don't eat for a meal, you will still have to eat some food no matter what your appetite is."
Yuwen Yubo said politely: "Thank you, but I really don't want to eat." Yi Feng simply walked to the mat next to her and sat down, "Do you already know?"
Yuwen Yubo suddenly smiled: "Yes. I have packed up my bags and am waiting to say goodbye to you." "Even so, then this meal should be eaten, even if it is a farewell dinner." Yi Feng originally thought about finding an opportunity to tell her to send her back when he was having dinner. As a result, she already knew about it, and he felt much more relaxed. But suddenly he realized that the invitation to her for dinner was not entirely just to inform her of this matter. He was actually very willing to eat this dinner with her. Maybe her special and free manners made him inadvertently separate her from the women of this era and treat her as a self-reliant woman in the future.
After hearing Yi Feng say this, Yuwen Yubo turned his head and thought. "Then it's better to obey your orders than respect, but this meal must be decided by me. I don't want to eat in this palace. You have to invite me to eat outside. I heard that a new restaurant in Beijing, called Baima Restaurant, is very novel and unique. Their dishes are delicious and the wine is rich. I want to eat there."
Yi Feng chuckled. The newly-emerged White Horse Restaurant in the capital was the industry under his name. It was the semi-colon of Huaihuang White Horse Restaurant in the capital. As soon as this restaurant opened in the capital, it immediately became popular in the capital with a brand new business philosophy and model, as well as a variety of dishes and various wines. Now that I want to eat at the White Horse Restaurant, I have to book a seat at least three days in advance, and the location of the private room seat was booked ten days in advance. However, Yuwen Yubo wanted to have a meal at the White Horse Restaurant, which was difficult for Yi Feng. Yi Feng is the boss. No matter how much he is full, he can live and have a seat at any time. There is a special private room on the top floor of the White Horse Restaurant that is specially reserved for him.
"Of course there is no problem. The best private rooms, the best dishes and wines. You can order whatever you want, including delicacies, delicious food, and the water that fly in the sky and climb in the ground.
After Yi Feng said so generously, Yuwen Yubo was in a much better mood. "Who in Beijing knew that this White Horse Restaurant is your King Zhao's property? These are not a piece of cake for you. Why do you have to say that it is so bleeding? I've been a little bored for these days. I've long heard that the roast chicken, roast duck, steamed goose at the White Horse Restaurant is delicious, and his various stir-fry dishes plus the hot pot are now very popular, so I want to go and get some fresh."
"Not to mention roast chicken, roast duck, steamed goose, the restaurant has many special dishes, roasted whole lamb, braised bear's paw, sweet and sour, hump, stewed whales and roasted swans, you can order whatever you want."
Yuwen Yubo was amused by his appearance as a rich country rich man and said, "I have no interest in the eight treasures like hump, but I am quite interested in those small stir-fry, hot pot and so on. Wait for me, I'll go to change my clothes."
She got up and walked away, took a few steps, and turned back and said, "Don't put on your king's ceremonial guard later, and don't rush forward and back. In addition, you have replaced your imperial python robe and thirteen golden belt, and then change it to a round necklace, a shirt, aconite boots, and be dressed in an ordinary scholar's outfit." Yi Feng put down the identity of King Zhao so well, and taught Yuwen Yubo's heart that had been gloomy for days, and she felt much more relaxed.
Yi Feng went back and changed into the golden belt of the python robe. As she said, she changed into a black shiny robe, put on a white round-necked robe, a pair of black leather boots, a cowhide belt around her waist, and a long sword around her waist like a literati nowadays. When he looked at the bronze mirror, he really looked like a kind-hearted scholar. He called the flag guards on duty, asked them to change their casual clothes, and asked them to prepare an ordinary carriage. He also told them to follow him after leaving the mansion for a while, without having to follow him closely. Yi Feng returned to the plum forest, and looked up through the branches and leaves of the plum trees, and saw that Yuwen Yubo had changed into a suit that was exactly the same as him. As soon as he saw him, he immediately bowed his fists, "Yuwentao met Brother Ling Yunshi."
Yi Feng nodded, "Now you don't have to climb over the wall and go out again." The two walked through the side door. An ordinary carriage was already parked there, but Zhang Zhongjian was driving the car.
Yuwen Yubo jumped into the carriage directly, Yi Feng said: "How about I call a car again, I will take another car."
Yuwen Yubo did not hesitate and said with a smile: "I am Yuwen Tao now. Why do the two men need to call a taxi again? Just take one out directly."
Yi Feng hesitated and said, "After all, there is a difference between men and women."
"Hey, I have no objection. What are you afraid of as a big man? Come up quickly."
Yi Feng smiled and climbed into the carriage according to her wishes. The White Horse Restaurant was built in the yard where the Yi Feng Mansion was located. Therefore, although it was already dark, the gates of each city gate were closed, but the curfew prohibited pedestrians from going to the streets at night. However, walking in the yard was not prohibited. Many people who came to the Baima Restaurant to eat came early and were not afraid after it was dark. As long as they registered in the restaurant, they could still drink, listen to, dance until dawn, and even had customers resting behind the restaurant. Daxing City is sometimes so strange. When it gets dark, the street drums sound, and the gates of each city gate are closed immediately. Pedestrians are strictly prohibited on the streets, and the streets are silent and dark. However, in the closed yards, there are bright lights. Many nightclubs open in the yards are lively.
There were two people sitting in the small carriage. Yi Feng was thinking about how to comfort her, but Yuwen Yubo spoke first, "I forgot to congratulate you, the newly adopted concubine was promoted to deputy prime minister. I saw that I would marry the princess's wife again in two days. Everything went well and everything went well."
Yi Feng said: "What new concubine is that it is purely a pit." He sighed. He was always alert to Hongfu, so even if Yang Su made a move, the emperor finally told him to take Hongfu like this. But Yi Feng was really unwilling to do so. After Hongfu entered the palace, although Yi Feng asked him to stay, he still did not publicly recognize Hongfu's identity. He had never been to her house once, and just thought she was hanging there with air. But I have to say that Hongfu was very scheming, although Yi Feng ignored her and did not give her a name.
She left her there in a unclear way, but she did not show any dissatisfaction on the surface. She used her agility to get along with Princess Lechang, and quickly got along with Chen Hua. With the relationship between the Duke of Yue and the King of Jin, she also got along very well with Xiao Sumei. Even with the maids and servants in the mansion, she showed great elegance. In a few days, she had a good reputation in the mansion. Yi Feng saw this in his eyes and was too lazy to care about it for the time being. In short, he just didn't give her a chance to get close to him.
Hongfu Nu is a good woman, with excellent appearance and talent. However, in Yi Feng's eyes, she is Yang Su's eyeliner, and he is quite afraid of Yang Su. In Yi Feng's eyes, Yang Su is equivalent to a king cobra. Such a guy really needs to be approached with him carefully. He is not a snake dancer. If he is accidentally poisoned by Yang Su, he will even be swallowed without even a little bit of scum left.
Yang Su is like a cobra, harsh and fierce, and attacks quickly. He often hides in dark corners and does not show any signs of dew, but when he sees the opportunity, he can give you a fatal blow. However, Yi Feng truly admires Yang Su's ability. He leads troops to fight, manages local governments, or even takes charge of the government. No matter what happens to him, he can always solve it quickly. No wonder Yang Jian is so picky, but he respects trust in him so much, and quickly rises to the position of prime minister, and now he has even become the actual prime minister.
The official system of the Great Sui Dynasty was centered on the three provinces and six ministries. The three divisions became honorary honors, and the three ministers had no power to open the government. They just sat with the emperor and became royal advisers. The prime minister of the court was transferred to the three chiefs of the three provinces. However, among the three provinces, only the Shangshu Provincial Department was in charge of everything, and was in charge of everything, and was also an executive agency. Therefore, the three provinces actually dominated the main position. For this reason, the Shangshu General of the Three Provinces had been vacant and was not granted the left.
The Right Pushe was the chief official of the Shangshu Province, so the three prime ministers originally became four prime ministers, the Shangshu Province, the left and right Pushe Province, the Menxia Province, the Inner History Province. And because the Shangshu Province, all things are in charge and unify everything, the two departments that make decisions and review, the Menxia and the Inner History Department, have also become the advisors of the Emperor like the Three Divisions and Three Dukes. Now the situation in the court is that among the four prime ministers, the Left and Right Pushe is the real prime minister, and the Nayan and the Inner History Department have much different powers.
Gao Yang has served as the Left Pushe for more than ten years and has won the hearts of the emperor. Therefore, the power of the Shangshu Province has become increasingly greater. Gao Yang, the Left Pushe, has actually become the prime minister of the court, and the Right Pushe is equivalent to the second prime minister, and Na Yan and the Internal Shiling have become the deputy prime minister.
For example, today, Zi issued an imperial edict to let Gao Yang go to the Shangshu Province to handle it on three days, and it was not a military and national affairs that did not require him to interfere with it. However, the military and national affairs were not mentioned, so he would handle it without saying anything. In this way, Gao Yang, the former prime minister, was suddenly hung up. Although Gao Yang came to the Shangshu Province every three days according to the order, he could only drink tea. The power of the Shangshu Province was taken over by Yang Su. Yang Su was very beautiful and did not mess up like Gao Yang secretly expected. He did not leak any water, and he dealt with several things. The emperor even received strong praise from Yang Jian. Nayan Suwei of Menxia Province was the founding father of the Great Sui Dynasty. He once served as the Minister of Shangshu Youpushe in his early years. When he was the most holy wish, he was in more than a dozen important positions, and even Gao Yan could hardly suppress him. Later, Gao Yan was finally involved in a case of Su Wei's son. A case of Su Wei's formation of a clique was created, which attracted the emperor's suspicion and dismissed Su Wei. However, Su Wei's ability was still very strong, and the emperor was unable to use him again. Now he has become Nayan, the chief of the Menxia Province, one of the three provinces.
Gao Yan was dismissed from the prime minister, and Su Wei was also a secretly happy person. He felt that a great opportunity came and wanted to launch an attack on the position of prime minister, and wanted to regain the position of Shangshu Youpushe. He even wanted to attack the position of Prime Minister. But his happiness soon became disappointment. Yang Su, his former subordinate, controlled the Shangshu Province more strictly than the Gao Yan era. Shangshu Province even invaded more rights to the provincial and provincial provincials. The two prime ministers, Ling and Na Yan, became increasingly inconsistent with their names.
Su Wei was unwilling to give up. He wanted to join forces with the Inner Shi Ling to launch an attack on Yang Su, but unfortunately the new Inner Shi Ling's son Yang Zhao was an unreliable son. Inner Shi Ling Yang Zhao, the eldest son of King Yang Guang of Jin, was only 16 years old. He raised the palace for the emperor and was the most kind. Now he serves as the chief of the Inner Shi Provincial Department and presided over the Inner Shi Provincial Department. Inner Shi Ling was originally called the Inner Shi Provincial Department, and Yang Jian established the country. Because his father was named Yang Zhong, he avoided the taboo to change the Inner Shi Provincial Department to the Inner Shi Provincial Department. The Inner Shi Ling changed the Inner Shi Ling. However, although the name was changed, the responsibilities of the Inner Shi Provincial Department were still the same. It is to uphold the monarch's will, in charge of the confidentiality, issue the emperor's edict, and the central government's edict. The most important responsibility of the Inner Shi Provincial Department was to draw an edict, so the Inner Shi Ling had the important right to participate in decision-making and became the prime minister. But Yang Zhao became the Inner Shi Ling. The order did not play a real role. Most of the time, he had no objection to the emperor's will. He asked his subordinates to draw an edict to discuss the infringement of the Shangshu Province and against Yang Su. He only knew how to say this and how to do it. Su Wei wanted to jump up and slap him twice. After a few times, he understood that Yang Su was originally the King of Jin, and Yang Zhao was the eldest son of the King of Jin, so he had no reason to follow him to fight against Yang Su. Moreover, Yang Zhao was only sixteen, which was as powerful as Yang Shuang, the King of Wei and Yang Lin, the King of Han. In the end, his heart that had risen with flames couldn't help but become cold again. He could only accept Yang Su's control over power.
Yang Su was also very satisfied with the current situation in the court. Gao Yang still occupies the position of Zuo Pushe, but he is only a deaf person. Even Gao Yang's appointment as the general military logistics dispatcher for the Northern Expedition was still retained, but in fact, all the matters in this regard were taken over by the new Minister of Personnel Niu Hong, Minister of War Liu Shu, and Minister of Civil Affairs Wei Shi. Nayan Su Wei was a great minister and was once his boss. This time he saw the opportunity.
He wanted to fight for a while, but Yang Su used several affairs in the court to give Su Wei a warning. Su Wei immediately retreated. Yang Su successfully stabilized the situation and maintained the situation where the Shangshu Province was dominant, which made him even feel a little proud. In the past, the Shangshu Province had the power, but the left and right Pushe had the power to separate the power. Now Gao Yang only has a name, but the Shangshu Province is the only one who has the final say. The right Pushe's power in his hands is even greater than when Gao Yang was the left Pushe.
But today the emperor suddenly issued an order, and King Zhao appointed Sikong as the title of Chief of the General Secretary, and was only under the position of the chief of the three provinces, and was temporarily sent. This decree immediately woke him up. King Zhao was appointed as the Prime Minister, and even if he was just a temporary deputy prime minister, he still made him sweat. Especially for the temporary title of Chief of the General Secretary, he became more and more worried. If the emperor asked King Zhao to serve as the Inner Historian, he would not be so worried. In that case, although Yang Lin became the prime minister, he would not change the past situation. But the emperor set up a new temporary deputy title of Chief of the General Secretary, which was worrying. In this way, it would be equivalent to setting a precedent.
The prime minister is no longer just the chief of the three provincial governors, no longer just four prime ministers. The emperor can use other officials to be appointed as prime minister at any time according to his own needs, regardless of whether it is temporary or not, which is a major impact on the current power structure in the court. Yang Su is very clear that the three provincial governor system is not unique to the emperor today. This is actually a complete set of ever-changing official positions system, and the core is the prime minister system. The prime ministers in the Qin Dynasty, the three dukes in the Han Dynasty, and the eight dukes in the Jin Dynasty, and the prime minister system not only changes, from the sole prime minister to the general, the three provincial governors replaced the three dukes as prime ministers, but they are actually just emperors, and they are changed according to needs. In the final analysis, this change is often changed according to people.
The emperor suddenly changed the system of the three provincial governors since the founding of the country to prime ministers. What does the temporary deputy minister of the general affairs of the government revealed? What he was most worried about was that the emperor not only had ideas about him as the prime minister, but simply had ideas about the current three provincial regime. But no matter which one it was, it would have a strong impact on his current status.
He was worried and speculated, but on the other hand, he was quite friendly to the emperor's newly appointed assistant minister, King Zhao. He took the initiative to go to the imperial capital and government office to find Yi Feng to discuss military medical plans with him. He knew very well that no matter whether the emperor really had any ideas about him or not, at this time, it was always wrong to be cautious and low-key. A bad thing is Gao Yang's yesterday, his tomorrow.
