Zhuquelos, one of the largest restaurants in the capital, are named after them because they are located near Zhuquelos. This restaurant has many specialty dishes, especially the most authentic ones made from local Tokyo dishes. Today is the tenth day, but Li Zhang came to the restaurant at noon. He had asked someone to book a private room on the second floor here because he was going to host a banquet today.

Shortly after Li Zhang arrived at the box, the guests he invited soon came. He saw the person who came in about fifty years old, wearing a long blue gown, tall figure, straight facial features, and three long beards under his jaw. He was Lu Yijian, the first prime minister of the Song Dynasty.

"Lu Xiang is here, please sit down quickly!" Li Zhang immediately stood up and smiled when he saw Lu Yijian coming in, and then ordered people to serve the dishes. In a short while, the two of them were filled with special dishes from Zhuquelou. Then Li Zhang asked everyone to retreat.

"Why did Wei Du Li suddenly think of treating me to dinner, and even specially invited me to Zhuque Tower? I'm afraid it's not for any intention?" Lu Yijian sat down and asked directly.

"Haha~, I know I can't hide it from the Lu Xiang!" Li Zhang laughed loudly at this time, then poured a glass of wine for the other party himself before continuing, "The Zhuque Tower in front of the Zhuque Gate, and the farewell in front of the building makes people worry. These two common sayings are almost the entire Tokyo city knows."

Zhuquemen is the southern main gate of Tokyo. When many people leave the capital, their relatives and friends will set up a farewell banquet at Zhuque Tower. Of course, because Zhuque Tower is not cheap, those who can come here to see off are either rich or noble. Zhuque Tower is also famous for making local dishes. Over time, Zhuque Tower has an additional meaning of farewell at Zhuque Tower.

"Why, Li Duwei, you are leaving the capital recently?" Lu Yijian asked again. There are so many restaurants in Tokyo, and Li Zhang chose to hold a banquet at Zhuquelou, but he had no plans to leave Beijing, so the only explanation is that Li Zhang is leaving Beijing recently. Maybe there is something to ask himself to take care of?

"Lu Xiang misunderstood. I have no plans to leave Beijing. But I have recently observed the celestial phenomena at night and found that Lu Xiang might be leaving Beijing nearest. I may have something to do, so I can't take time, so I set up a banquet at Zhuque Tower in advance to see Lu Xiang off!" Li Zhang said with a smile again. Now he is much thicker now, and he even opens his mouth to tell lies when he opens his eyes and talks.

Lu Yijian naturally didn't believe that Li Zhang knew how to observe the celestial phenomena, but he knew that Li Zhang was a person and knew that the other party would never be aimless, so he couldn't help but frown and said, "If you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly, don't take such a big turn!"

Li Zhang actually doesn't like this kind of roundabout speaking, but his relationship with Lu Yijian is subtle and he can't speak too directly, otherwise the other party might not be able to accept it, so he can only make this worst decision.

Li Zhang ate the dishes at this time, then put down his chopsticks and sighed: "I heard that Wang Xiang has been suppressed by Lu Xiang recently. Now everyone says that although Lu Xiang is a junior of Wang Xiang, he is out of his avatar and has suppressed Wang Xiang tightly. I wonder if these are the facts?"

"These are all rumors from others. I am dedicated to the prime minister and I will never suppress others with my power!" Lu Yijian did not expect that Li Zhang would ask these in front of him, and then denied that of course he would not admit that he had suppressed Wang Zeng.

"It's normal for Lu Xiang to refuse to admit it, but sometimes I wonder why Lu Xiang is confused about Wang Xiang for a lifetime?" Li Zhang was not surprised by Lu Yijian's denial, but he seemed to be talking to himself.

"What do you mean by Duwei Li? Do you know something?" Lu Yijian frowned again and said. If others said these words, he might be angry and even left. But Li Zhang was different. He was Zhao Zhen's cousin and Zhao Zhen trusted the most. If the Song Dynasty wanted to find someone who knew Zhao Zhen the most, there would probably be no other person besides Li Zhang. So Lu Yijian also doubted whether Li Zhang knew something from Zhao Zhen at this time?

Li Zhang did not explain directly at this time, but ate the dish again and said again: "Actually, Lu Xiang is a smart person and should be able to understand Your Majesty's intention. It would be fine if Young Master Li was forced to leave before, but if Wang Xiang was forced to leave again, Lu Xiang, what do you think Your Majesty will think then?"

"This..." Lu Yijian was also shocked when he heard this and immediately sat upright. His personality was indeed a bit domineering. Li Di took the initiative to attack him before, so he designed to force the other party away. Although Wang Zeng did not attack him, he felt threatened. Therefore, Lu Yijian also wanted to force Wang Zeng out of the court like he had forced Li Di away before, but he forgot Zhao Zhen's attitude towards this matter.

In fact, with Lu Yijian's wisdom, such obvious things should not be ignored, but as the saying goes, power is fascinating. He only wants to keep the power in his hands, so he naturally ignores other things. Zhao Zhen can tolerate him forcing Li Di away, but he will never tolerate him forcing Wang Zeng away again. If he really insists on attacking Wang Zeng, in the end, no matter whether right or wrong, he, as the prime minister, will probably be demoted from the capital as Li Zhang said.

Seeing Lu Yijian's thoughtful look, Li Zhang smiled again and said, "According to the news I just received, Your Majesty recently wanted to be appointed as the right servant of the sect and minister of the disciple, Ping Zhangshi, Grand Secretary of Jixian Palace, and Duke Yi, and I don't need to say more about the purpose!"

Lu Yijian was shocked again when he heard Li Zhang's words. As the prime minister, he had another official title, that is, Pingzhangshi, the subordinate of the Zhongshu, which was also an official position that the king had held before. Now Zhao Zhen plans to grant Wang Zeng the title of Right Pushe and Minister of the Junior High School. Pingzhangshi's position is quite close to him. In addition to his suppression of Wang Zeng during this period, it is obvious that Zhao Zhen is supporting Wang Zeng and also a warning to him.

"Thank you for your reminder!" Thinking of the above, Lu Yijian immediately woke up and then bowed to Li Zhang solemnly. Although he suspected that Li Zhang might have told him that these might be due to Zhao Zhen's intention, he had recorded all this favor no matter what.

"Haha~, in fact, even if I don't talk about these things, I can definitely think of them with Lu Xiang's wisdom. Everyone said that Ding Wei was extremely smart, but in my opinion, he only had a small plan but no big picture. In the end, he got angry. Lu Qingchu also defeated Ding Wei's hero, so I won't say much more!" Li Zhang said this and poured Lu Yijian a glass of wine again.
