The little emperor wanted to invite him to dinner, this was beyond Yan Ge's expectation. Although he knew that Li Xiu would find him irresistibly, he did not expect him to do so in this way.

But let's eat, it's a very long-sighted thing for the emperor to invite you to eat. At present, everyone in the court thinks that the little emperor and Yan Ge's relationship is as good as wearing a pair of trousers. Although many people secretly call Yan Ge a fool, they don't understand why the emperor wants to join hands with Yan Ge to fight against Yang Dang. It's not about joining forces with the Yang Party to defeat Yan Ge.

With everyone's attention, Yang Ge went to the palace in a sedan chair as soon as the time came.

Officials in the capital don't like to ride horses and prefer to sit in sedan chairs. They think that riding in sedan chairs is a very important thing to reflect their status. For example, officials of the fifth rank can only take a light-step sedan chair carried by two people, and officials of the fourth rank and above can ride in a sedan chair carried by four people, and only senior officials of the second rank and above can take a large sedan chair carried by eight people. Walking on the street with these sedan chairs, it is clear at a glance whether the people in the sedan chairs are noble or not.

Unlike riding a horse, it doesn't matter how old you are, you can only ride one horse per stride.

When Yan Ge was at the border, he was used to riding a horse. When he arrived in the capital, he went to the countryside to do as the Romans did. It was time to ride a sedan chair. It's not that he cares about these vain things, but that there are too many people on the streets in the capital city, and there are fewer people at the border. Riding a horse on the street is easy to cause accidents if you startle the horse.

Eight sedan chairs carried Yan Ge into the imperial city very quickly. Recently, Yan Ge had indeed helped Li Xiu a lot, so the smile that Li Xiu showed after seeing Yan Ge could not be said to be fake. He was indeed very happy, although his heart was still full of uncertainties, but this did not affect his rare good mood.

The two sat on both sides of the table, and the maids brought up the imperial meals one after another.

Four cold appetizers were served first, and Yan Ge saw that they were cold jellyfish, preserved egg with dried meat floss, hot and sour cabbage heart, and lotus root slices mixed with vinegar. These four dishes cannot be said to be bad, not to mention the exquisite craftsmanship of the imperial chef. But it depends on who treats guests, and who they invite. Once the emperor treats guests with appetizers, this is really too shabby.

That is, Yan Ge usually eats at home by himself, and there are eight appetizers, four cold dishes and four hot dishes, and the ingredients are many times richer than this. He looked at Li Xiu who was sitting opposite, and saw that the little emperor's face was very calm, and Yan Ge couldn't see any emotion. He couldn't help but start to wonder, is the little emperor really saving? I still gave myself this kind of thing on purpose.

Little did they know that Li Xiu was still relieved at the moment, knowing that he usually didn't have any appetizers when he ate by himself, that is, there were no more four dishes and one soup.

Yan Ge didn't know what Li Xiu's purpose was, so he ate the dishes calmly, and he ate as soon as Li Xiu ate, and he didn't eat too much, just eat two chopsticks for appetizers and just mean it.

The main course will be served next, and the main course is all big and different from the appetizer. Generally, there is a theory of four, six, and eight for ordinary people's banquets, which means that the number of dishes of the main course must be an even number, and an even number is auspicious. For ordinary people, eight main courses are already very solemn, but for wealthy businessmen and officials, twelve or sixteen main courses are normal. Yang Yanqing's son once served twenty-four main courses for a table at home.

So when the main course came out, Yan Ge was not in a hurry to eat it. After the eight main dishes were served, Li Xiu held up the wine glass and said, "General, you have worked hard recently. Come, I will toast you."

Well, it turns out that the dishes are already served. The corner of Yan Ge's mouth twitched, he raised his wine glass and touched Li Xiu, one of them couldn't hold back and blurted out: "Your Majesty is so frugal, it is a blessing for all people."

As soon as Li Xiu said this, his expression changed on the spot. If he was really a frugal emperor, he might be happier hearing what Yang Ge said. But he is not, you must know that today's banquet is better than what he ate last year.

For a moment, shame, anger, powerlessness and all kinds of emotions came to my heart, and Li Xiu's complexion changed several times like that palette, and finally squeezed out a stiff smile and said: "Today, there are only you and my monarch and minister, too much is a waste. "

What else could Yan Ge say? I can only go along with it and say yes.

It was rare to have such a good meal, but Li Xiu couldn't swallow what Yan Ge said.

After all, Li Xiu is still young, he has not been emperor for less than a year, and he is already very well-known among his peers, but he is still a little tender in front of Yan Ge. Yan Ge could see the drastic change in his complexion just now, and after thinking about it, he felt that things might be different from what he thought. Li Xiu really didn't need to show his face at this time.

When the two of them had almost finished eating, a palace lady came over to remove all the dishes, and then the snacks and tea after the meal were brought up. Now is the time to really talk about things.

Li Xiu took a sip of tea, and very tactfully expressed to Yang Ge that the officials of the Yang Party had dismounted too quickly, and that he was running out of people. Yan Ge was taken aback when he heard that, he was only thinking about how to help Li Xiu defeat Yang Yanqing, but he forgot that Li Xiu's foundation is still shallow. He thought for a while, and said: "This year, His Majesty opened Enke, and there are still 360 new Jinshi who are eagerly looking forward to serving His Majesty. Why don't His Majesty send these Jinshi to local places for training, so that after a few years, Datang will come back again." There will be a group of more competent officials."

Li Xiu thought it made sense. Those new Jinshi may be immature now, but as long as they are placed in the local area for a few years of experience, they might not be able to entrust them with important responsibilities. What's more, most of these Enke Scholars are brand-new rookies, who have not been involved in party disputes yet, and they are all people that Li Xiu can use with confidence. The release of these people can greatly alleviate Li Xiu's embarrassing situation where no one is available, so Li Xiu couldn't control her joy after she figured it out.

With this joy, he couldn't help looking at Yan Ge who was sitting opposite him. Yan Ge was drinking tea, and seemed to have sensed Li Xiu's gaze, so he slightly raised his head and looked over. Seeing Li Xiu looking at him excitedly, he smiled slightly. He was originally good-looking, but this smile was amazing in Li Xiu's eyes. Li Xiu was deeply impressed by his soft eyes, warm demeanor, and smile like spring breeze turning into rain.

For a while, he couldn't connect the gentle young man in front of him with the general who had severely injured the Yang party while talking and laughing. Seeing Li Xiu staring at him blankly, Yan Ge asked: "But the minister's suggestion is not good?"

"Ah, no." Li Xiu came back to his senses, his heart was pounding, and a thin layer of red appeared on his face, he said: "The general's suggestion is very good, no... I don't know what the general has. Neng Chen recommends one or two?"

What he said was equivalent to telling Yan Ge, thank you for what you did, as a person who reciprocates you, please feel free to ask for any position you want, and I will definitely agree.

Who knew that Yan Ge just smiled lightly, and said: "I have grown up in the border since I was a child, and I am an out-and-out countryman. How can I know any capable ministers? Ask me, but your majesty is asking blindly."

He thought of himself so much that Li Xiu had to re-examine Yan Ge. What Yan Ge has done these days, if there is even a little bit of disobedience, he can't do it. Li Xiu couldn't help wondering, could it be that he is really a loyal minister without selfishness? Shocked in his heart, Li Xiu actually asked a question that he had never dared to ask, "General, tell me the truth, why did you return to Beijing at this time?"

Yan Ge put down the teacup, and said: "I said before that my hometown is in the capital, and it has been twenty years. I am already tired of the life at the border that is full of wind, sand and blood. I want to go back to Beijing to live a good life."

Li Xiu couldn't see any flaws in Yan Ge's face, he just stared at Yan Ge's face without relaxing for a moment and said, "Since you are going back to Beijing to live, why did you bring a hundred thousand troops?"

Yang Ge raised his eyes and stared straight at Li Xiu's eyes and said: "I also said before that I heard that there are traitors in the court who are disrupting the government and only cover the sky with my hands. I want to eradicate the traitors for your majesty. Think about it, your majesty." If I come back alone, what will I use to fight against the traitors."

Li Xiu's eyes widened, and she looked at Yan Ge in disbelief. What Yan Ge said was the fact that he couldn't believe it, he didn't want to believe it, but he had to believe it.

Since Yan Ge returned to Beijing, Li Xiu's attitude towards him was first to be vigilant and defensive, and later to be vigilant and defensive and take advantage of him. From the beginning to the end, he never thought that Yan Ge would be a loyal minister of history, and Yan Ge never refuted his defense and suspicion, he just did it silently from beginning to end.

Today's shock was too great, and Li Xiu's heart and mind became a mess. With an ugly face, he asked Yan Ge to go back, while he locked himself in the imperial study room, thinking carefully about what Yan Ge said and what he did.

Li Xiu sat blankly at the desk until late at night, until now he had to admit that, except that Yan Ge was a loyal minister, there was really no reason to explain what he did after he came to the capital.

After he figured it out, Li Xiu was excited and guilty and wanted to laugh and cry. He was excited and wanted to laugh because he thought that with the help of Yan Ge, it would be easy to do difficult things. The guilt is that he has been guarding against Yang Ge as a traitor and thief, and he wants to cry because the grievances and fears he has suffered for so long have been released.

He was crying and laughing alone in the imperial study, and by the time Chen Hong pushed the door in fearing that something might happen to him inside, Li Xiu was already exhausted and fell asleep lying on the desk.

This sleep was very comfortable, Li Xiu had not slept so peacefully and comfortably for a long time since she was established as the crown prince. He seemed to have had a dream. When he woke up, he had forgotten all the content of the dream, only a face as gentle as jade was clearly imprinted in his mind. For some reason, Li Xiu suddenly wanted to see Yan Ge, and then he discovered an embarrassing thing, he had a morning erection.

Li Xiu is young and has no concubine, so it is most normal to have such a reaction in the morning. It stands to reason that he should have married the queen at such an age, but his status is really embarrassing. He didn't want to marry the daughter of a lowly family. The honorable ministers thought that he would not be an emperor for a long time, so they didn't want to marry their daughter to him. In addition, he was worried about how to fight Yang Yanqing all day long, so he didn't even have the heart to think about it.

If he came and went twice, it would be delayed. An emperor who has grown up without a queen is probably unprecedented.

When he was lying on the bed to relieve himself, for some reason, the image of Yan Ge's slight smile yesterday always appeared in his mind. Gradually, he became uneasy in his heart. Although he didn't know what was wrong with him, the uneasiness still enveloped him.
