Start with a hero

Chapter 110
Li Yizhi's thoughts turned rapidly. He recalled the information in the original work, and soon found the answer. They were trying to check and balance the Yuwen family.

In today's Jiangdu court team, there are mainly three forces:
One of them is Yuwen Valve.Yu Wenhuaji served as the chief of the imperial army, and at the same time, whether it was Sima Dekan, the commander of the imperial army, or Yu Chisheng, the general manager of Yangzhou, they all secretly joined Yu Wenhuaji and had the strongest power.

The second is the alliance between Yu Shiji and Pei Yun.Relying on Yang Guang's favor, the two controlled the government. Their only weakness was that they did not have military power.

The third is Dugu valve.The Dugu Clan is a relative, and Dugu Sheng is Yang Guang's bodyguard, controlling part of the imperial army.

However, although the Dugu family is a foreign relative, their sense of existence has always been weak, and they cannot be compared with the former two at all.

Therefore, the main opponent of Yu Shiji and Pei Yun's alliance is the Yuwen Clan.

In fact, the alliance between Yu Shiji and Pei Yun has been looking for various excuses to slander Yu Wenhuaji in front of Yang Guang, hoping to defeat the Yuwen Clan.

Right now, Yang Guang himself handed over a sword, they naturally wanted to grasp it, and cut off a large piece of flesh and blood from Yuwen's mouth.

Because Yu Chisheng is the general manager of Yangzhou, in charge of the military and political power of Yangzhou.

Once Li Yizhi became the prefect of Jiangdu, it would be equivalent to depriving Yuchi Sheng of his administrative power, and even restricting Yu Chisheng in terms of logistics.

Yu Wenhuaji's complexion instantly darkened when he heard the words.

He stood up and retorted fiercely: "Your Majesty, although this Li Yizhi is a good painter, how can we see his talent? What's more, the prefect of Jiangdu is a high position of the third rank, how can he be awarded to a white man?"

Pei Yun smiled lightly, walked into the hall, and said: "General Yuwen's words are wrong. You are not a scholar, so naturally you don't know that painting and calligraphy are one. This painting is Li Yizhi's hobby, and he has such a high level of interest." Achievements, if you think about his literary skills, he is naturally not weak."

Yu Wenhua and his long sleeves flicked, looked at Pei Yun coldly, and said: "It's simply absurd. Painting skills are painting skills, and literature is literary talent. How can the two be confused. Besides, even if Li Yizhi has some talents, that's not enough." You have to start from a low level. You have no official experience and suddenly become a third-rank high-ranking official, you are trying to ignore the common people!"

Yu Shiji said unhurriedly: "If you are an ordinary person, you naturally need to start as a low-level official, but Li Yizhi is a talent that His Majesty values, and he must have some special qualities. How can he be like an ordinary official? Could it be that you are suspicious of His Majesty?" vision?"

Yu Wenhuaji's expression changed, he was about to refute...

"All right!"

Yang Guang on the dragon chair waved his long sleeves, looking at Yu Wenhuaji a little displeased, he turned his head and asked Dugu Sheng, his highness, "Dugu Aiqing, what do you think?"

Dugu Sheng looked at the people in the hall, he turned around slowly, bowed to Yang Guang, and said, "The general thinks that what they both said makes sense, but it depends on His Majesty's dictatorship. If His Majesty thinks that Li Yizhi's trip, Li Yizhi That's fine; if His Majesty thinks Li Yizhi can't do it, then Li Yizhi can't do it."

In the struggle between the Yupei Alliance and the Yuwen Clan, Dugu Sheng has always been on the sidelines, as long as he serves Yang Guang to be happy.

Yang Guang laughed, with a relaxed expression, and he said loudly: "This matter has been settled like this. Li Yizhi will be appointed as the prefect of Jiangdu, and he will be competent immediately. However, Li Aiqing, before you take office, you have to help me, these beauties, draw a picture of you. painting."

The corners of Li Yizhi's mouth curled up, and he said loudly: "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, and I obey the order."

With a livid face, Yu Wenhua glanced coldly at Yu Shiji and Pei Yun, clenched his fists.

Yu Shiji and Pei Yun chuckled indifferently, although it seemed that the snipe and the clam were fighting each other, and the fisherman was gaining.

But they believed that it shouldn't be difficult to subdue Li Yizhi, and by then this would be their own strength.

…………

There were too many concubines in the palace, even if it took Li Yizhi to paint one painting in half an hour, he had to paint it for more than two days, and he didn't leave the palace until the afternoon of the third day.

In fact, those who are eligible to have Li Yizhi's portrait are concubines who are loved by Yang Guang and have high status. If all the beautiful women are counted, he may not even think about leaving the Jiangdu palace in a month or two.

And these concubines are indeed all beautiful and charming, with heavenly fragrance and national beauty, and the most dazzling one belongs to Empress Xiao.

Empress Xiao's life can be regarded as a legend. She married six emperors, the last of which was Li Shimin. Even though Empress Xiao was nearly 50 years old at that time, she still fascinated Li Shimin.

As soon as Li Yizhi walked out of the palace, a gorgeous carriage slowly came over.

The curtains of the carriage were drawn, and Yu Shiji said with a smile on his face, "Prefect Li is going back to Yangzhou, so you might as well get in the carriage with me."

Li Yizhi smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Then disturb Minister Yu."

"Hehe, Prefect Li is being polite."

It is still the Sui Dynasty, and there is no title of 'adult'. People are usually called by surname plus official title or title.

Yu Shiji is the servant of internal history, so Li Yizhi called him "Yu Shilang", and Yu Shiji called him "Li Taishou".

Li Yi got on the carriage and found that the carriage was very spacious and decorated extremely luxuriously, even the floor was covered with fox fur.

He sat down opposite Yu Shiji, and there was a small table between the two of them, with some delicate snacks on it.

Yu Shiji pointed to the dim sum with his right hand, and said, "Prefect Li, come and taste these dim sum. They are all made by the royal chef in the palace, and you can't eat them outside."

Li Yizhi nodded when he heard the words, and he said: "Servant Yu, I thank you and Imperial Envoy Pei for your kind recommendation that day."

After Yu Shiji finished his snacks, he wiped his hands with a brocade cloth, and then said: "Prefect Li is too polite. The reason why I recommend you is because His Majesty appreciates your talent. However, Prefect Li is going to take up the post in Yangzhou, so you have to pay attention to Yu Shiji. The culture is up to date."

"Oh, how do you say that?"

Li Yizhi probably guessed Yu Shiji's purpose, he was amused in his heart, but he also cooperated to pretend to be ignorant.

"I'm afraid you still don't know that Yu Chisheng, the general manager of Yangzhou, has already secretly joined the Yuwen Clan, and Yangzhou is close to the Jiangdu Palace, so Yuwen Wenhua has a great influence in the court."

Yu Shiji looked at Li Yizhi and said meaningfully: "Now that you have become the prefect of Jiangdu, it means that half of Yuchi Sheng's rights have been taken away at once. I am afraid that not only Yuchi Sheng hates you in his heart, but Yu Wenhuaji also wants to get along with you. quick."

Li Yizhi looked terrified, as if he had been frightened, and then he pretended to ask Yu Shiji for help: "What should I do, and ask Yu Shilang to save me."

"Don't worry, Prefect Li. This officer will not stand idly by on this matter. Yu Wenhua is extremely domineering in the court, and will endanger the world sooner or later. Therefore, for the sake of His Majesty and the people of the world, Yushi Pei and I have been secretly scheme to weaken his power."

Yu Shiji was very satisfied with Li Yizhi's performance, and he comforted him: "Our recommendation of you as the prefect of Jiangdu this time is the first step in weakening the power of the Yuwen Clan. Next, you must seize the power of Yangzhou as soon as possible, and then you can restrain Yuchi from winning. Join forces with us to restrain Yu Wenhuaji."

Li Yizhi looked grateful, and said: "Don't worry Yu Shilang, from now on, the next officials will definitely follow your example."

"Haha, Prefect Li is too far-fetched." Yu Shiji said with a hearty smile.
