Guessing that noon is coming soon, Bai Youlin stuffed the letter into his sleeves casually, walked out of the study with his hands behind his back, and said to Bai Su who was following him as he walked:

"Follow me to Baiweilou."

Baiweilou is a well-known restaurant in Beijing. The style of this restaurant is different from other restaurants. It does not set its own signature dishes, but chooses to offer guests a variety of dishes from all over the world.The cooks in the store are also very skilled, and the food they make is full of color, fragrance and taste, allowing guests to feast on their eyes and feast on them at the same time.

When Bai Youlin arrived, Zhao Zhe seemed to have been waiting in the private room for a long time.

"I thought the general wouldn't come." Zhao Zhe stroked his beard and sat on the stool without moving, without any intention of getting up to greet him.

Bai Youlin didn't care, went directly to Zhao Zhe and sat down, and asked straight to the point: "Why did the prime minister find this general?"

Zhao Zhe looked at Bai Youlin and smiled meaningfully: "I heard that the general is highly relied on by the Holy Majesty, and the Holy Majesty even bestowed 'Lui Ying' to the general a few days ago, which can be said to have given the general the limelight!"

Bai Youlin took a sip of the tea on the table, and said modestly: "Thanks to the great love of the Holy One, Bai is also very flattered."

"Where is there, everyone knows that the general and the emperor have a good relationship, and it has not been a day or two since the emperor doted on the general." Zhao Zhe smiled ambiguously, "The general knows that there is a romantic affair going on among the officials. A well-known hero was deceived by his beauty and did a lot of stupid things."

"What does the prime minister mean?" Bai Youlin understood the deep meaning hidden in Zhao Zhe's words, and he turned his head to look at Zhao Zhe, with a stern look in his eyes.

The old god Zhao Zhe smiled on the ground, and said meaningfully: "The general is a smart man, you can definitely hear what the old man means. The emperor's whole heart is now on the general, and the general will never give it to him if he wants stars. Yue Yue, how can this way of getting along with each other look like ordinary monarchs and ministers? You say that there is deep brotherhood, but who would believe it?"

"So?" Bai Youlin asked coldly.

"Currently the officials in the DPRK and China are spreading the rumors in private that the general is a sycophant who relies on his body for a position. I really can't hear it, so I kindly came to remind the general." Zhao Zhe sighed hypocritically, "Go with the emperor. Being too close is not a good thing, the general probably doesn't know about it, the emperor is well aware of these rumors, but he doesn't intend to save the general from fire and water."

Bai Youlin didn't know whether he heard Zhao Zhe's words, but stared at the teacup in his hand in a daze.

Zhao Zhe didn't care about Bai Youlin's reaction, and continued: "In my opinion, the general and that one are not indestructible... Does the general think that that one really trusts you?"

Anyone who is smarter and superior will not choose to trust a person whose origin is unknown.Bai Youlin is a mysterious person, his family background is a mystery, and the only master who has a relationship with him has long since left Songshan and disappeared.Except for the emperor, I really haven't seen any relatives and friends who often communicate with him.

Is it normal to live alone at a young age?

"Whether that person trusts me or not, I believe Lve Ying can prove it. The prime minister came to me today to tell me these gossips, right?" Bai Youlin didn't want to talk nonsense with Zhao Zhe anymore.

"Of course not, the old man is just... as someone who has been here to remind the general that you are still young and shouldn't be ruined in this quagmire." Zhao Zhe looked at Bai Youlin's indifferent face with a complex and difficult expression.

I don't know who sighed.

Bai Youlin got up suddenly, stretched his hand to the side to pick up an unused empty teacup, and raised the teacup in front of Zhao Zhe under Zhao Zhe's puzzled eyes.

He looked at Zhao Zhe, speaking with the usual coldness in his voice:

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your reminder. In order to thank the Prime Minister for his kindness, I will also tell the Prime Minister a story——

The former boss of this Baiweilou was envied by Ling Qianjin, and Ling Qianjin would do everything to pursue him. Later, the boss's secret was exposed by Ling Qianjin, and the boss died. Ling Qianjin is still alive and kicking and escaped from marriage. "

"How do you know!" Zhao Zhe gradually began to sweat coldly on his forehead.

"Because the emperor knows." Bai Youlin replied, he was playing with the empty teacup casually, "We two should stop laughing at each other, I believe the prime minister must still remember the name of the former owner of Baiweilou. Then... ...how did he die?"

After finishing speaking, Bai Youlin let go of his hand, and the teacup fell to the ground, breaking into pieces with a bang.

"General!"

"Prime Minister!"

Hearing the sound, Bai Su and others who had been standing outside the door broke in.

"We're fine." Zhao Zhe quickly changed back to a calm and calm look, as if nothing had happened, "I've finished talking with the general, let's go home."

After speaking, he stood up and led a group of followers out of the private room.

"General..." Bai Su was a little worried, but was interrupted by Bai Youlin raising his hand just as he was about to speak.

"Nothing." Bai Youlin said with a cold face.

Zhao Zhe always wanted to provoke discord, but he didn't know that there was no need to provoke Bai Youlin and Dongfang Jihua.

"If you have something to play, you will retreat if there is nothing!"

"Your Majesty! Recently, news came from the Jiangnan region that the rainy season is approaching, and heavy rains have continued for several days in many counties, causing major floods, and the people are in dire straits..."

Dongfang Jihua's mind was always weighed down by the flood in the south of the Yangtze River mentioned by the minister of the Ministry of Industry in the early court, so that he couldn't calm down to review the memorial at all.He put down the pen, raised his hand and rubbed the space between his brows, and didn't put it down until he felt that his head didn't hurt so much.

The moment he let go, Dongfang Jihua saw Bai Youlin walking slowly towards him through his fingers.

"You came."

The sadness in Dongfang Jihua's eyes disappeared, replaced by the joy of seeing someone he trusted. He hurriedly got up from the chair, and showed a warm smile to Bai Youlin.

"Your Majesty's order, I dare not neglect. I don't know why Your Majesty called the minister here?"

Bai Youlin bowed his head respectfully, he didn't dare to look directly at Dongfang Jihua who was staring at him all the time, so he naturally missed the regret that flashed in Dongfang Jihua's eyes the moment he lowered his head.

Dongfang Jihua sighed in his heart.

Ever since he ascended the throne, his relationship with his younger brother seems to have become weaker and weaker. Every time he sees his younger brother, he always looks very respectful and dare not offend, not at all like the arrogance and rebellion he had when he was a child.

Perhaps this is what the younger brother said "today is different from the past", Dongfang Jihua gradually raised his face while feeling emotional.He walked around behind Bai Youlin, turned his back to Bai You and asked in a deep voice: "Do you still remember the flood in the south of the Yangtze River that was mentioned earlier today?"

"I remember." Bai Youlin replied.

"I've been worrying about this all morning." Dongfang Jihua sighed, "After much deliberation, I decided to go to the south of the Yangtze River to inspect the people's situation. For safety reasons, I want you to go with me to the south of the Yangtze River , would you like to?"

Hearing Dongfang Jihua's questioning words, Bai Youlin showed no expression on his face.

Who dares to refuse the emperor's request?

Bai Youlin only heard himself utter the words that he often said: "It is my honor to serve His Majesty."

"I see that you have said this sentence no less than ten times, next time you will use something new." Dongfang Jihua's voice came from behind.

With his back facing Dongfang Jihua, Bai Youlin couldn't see Dongfang Jihua's expression, he could only vaguely tell from his voice that Dongfang Jihua should be in a good mood.He considered the words in his mind, and finally found that the most suitable answer at this time seemed to be those three words:

"My minister obeys."

"After you go back, prepare well. We will leave in two days." Dongfang Jihua turned around and patted Bai Youlin's shoulder.

"I understand." Bai Youlin nodded.

Two days later, Dongfang Jihua set off for Jiangnan with Bai Youlin and a team of entourage.

Chapter 6

"Liu Yu, you bastard! Let me get out!"

The little girl in a concubine's red cross-collared waist-length skirt and a hanging bun stood with her waist crossed in the huge courtyard, her whole body was filled with anger.

"Little... miss, that... young master... went out..." a maid who swept the floor stammered.

This early in the morning, when everyone was cleaning the yard, my young lady suddenly rushed over from the gate and yelled at the young master's room for no reason, scaring everyone so much that they didn't dare to breathe.

OK!This bastard tricked me into standing at the gate for him for a long time, and now he ran out to play by himself. He will feel better when he comes back!

"Liu Yu... let's wait and see!" Liu Xu gritted his teeth with a gloomy face.

Perhaps this "call of love" was so effective that as soon as Liu Xu finished speaking, he heard someone's lazy voice behind him:

"Yo! My baby sister, what can I do with my brother?"

damn...

With a thump in his heart, Liu Xu turned around stiffly, and as expected, he met Liu Yu's smiling face with big white teeth showing a particularly happy smile.

Liu Xu hurriedly took two steps back, looking at Liu Yu warily.

Speaking of the two brothers and sisters Liu Xu and Liu Yu, it's really like a friend who doesn't get together.When Liu Xu was a baby, she was powerless to resist Liu Yu's "abuse". She was poked in the face by Liu Yu every day until she cried. When he escaped from the sea of ​​suffering, he was slapped by reality again.Liu Yu used twice the IQ of Liu Xu to prove a truth to Liu Xu - your brother will always be your brother, so Liu Xu can only walk on the road of taking the blame for his brother with tears in his eyes:

She takes the blame for her elder brother's troubles, she is greedy for whatever his elder brother wants to eat, and she does everything that his elder brother doesn't want to do.
