After Zhao Xu finished speaking, the people following Zhao Xu were silent.

Their official family is not the former emperor of the Song Dynasty!

Tangerine peel lowered her head.

Meiren Meng pursed her lips tightly.

The others bowed one after another, not daring to breathe.

Han Zongdao's "retreat bravely" at this time was obviously embarrassing the government. Too many people were worried and afraid, would the government directly deal with the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture, who was known as the Prime Minister, on the street!

Han Zongdao listened to Zhao Xu's plain and thunderous voice, and his neck was also cold, but he had carefully calculated and confirmed that Zhao Xu would not do anything to him at this time. After he hesitating for a moment, he raised his hand and said as humbly as possible: "The government has decided on everything, and there is no difference between having or not having a minister. I will give good affairs and will not cause trouble to the government."

The folding fan in Zhao Xu's hand moved gently, making a squeaking sound, his face was calm and he was thinking in his heart.

He basically cleaned up the court officials left by Empress Dowager Gao, but only two people were left: one was the current priest Su Song, and the other was Han Zongdao, the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture, who was the prime minister.

Han Zongdao chose to resign at this time, because he should have seen clearly the obvious and self-protection under the general trend, and it was not surprising.

But how could Zhao Xu let him go?

Zhao Xu needed the "new party" to innovate, but it did not mean that he beat the "old party" to death with one stick. This was not only a political requirement, but also in line with imperial skills.

Zhao Xu opened the folding fan with a snap and said with a smile: "Han Qing's family is at a prosperous reform, how can he retreat bravely? I will add you as the governor of the government and carry forward the reform of the court. The court decided to use Kaifeng Prefecture as a reform pilot, and the Han Qing's family will take charge of this matter."

Meiren Meng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stood still.

Chenpi listened, and a smile flashed across the corner of her mouth.

Han Zongdao was the one left by the Empress Dowager, a big figure in the "old party". If this big figure in the "old party" led the "new law reform", the scene would have been very good!

The people who followed Han Zongdao suddenly felt anxious and looked at Zhao Xu's back, and they looked vaguely afraid.

Killing people is just a pity. The official's move is really fast and accurate!

Han Zongdao's face changed again and again. How could he have thought that the official not only did not take him away, but instead gave him an additional title!

But this promotion is not what he wants!

Han Zongdao raised his hand in a serious look and said, "Officials, I really cannot take on this position. I also ask the official to choose another virtuous person. Reform is related to the country. Please think twice."

Han Zongdao made it clear that he opposed the restart of the "Xining Reform" and refused to take responsibility.

How could Zhao Xu give him a chance? Looking ahead, he smiled and said, "I believe in the Han Qing family's abilities very much. The Han Qing family will not disappoint me. By the way, find a suitable time. I will select the royal family to Kaifeng Prefecture. The Han Qing family should not be so stressed. Go."

After Zhao Xu finished speaking, he was about to move forward.

Han Zongdao's expression was changing.

The royal princes were in charge of Kaifeng Prefecture. This was a tradition of the Song Dynasty, but this tradition had profound meaning, that is, the meaning of Kaifeng Prefecture means two words - the crown prince!

The official family has no children yet, so who is the right to know Kaifeng Prefecture? What does this mean?

The crown prince is the foundation of the country. How can one be easily determined when the official family is young and there are no children?

Han Zongdao was thinking about it. Just as he was about to catch up with Zhao Xu, he suddenly, dozens of people rushed in front of him, clamoring to block their group's way.

The imperial guards appeared as if they were facing a great enemy, surrounding Zhao Xu and others.

"Please stop the war!"

"Please pay the full salary of the court!"

"It rained heavily in the sky, and the 'new law' violates the laws of heaven. Please abolish the 'new law' forever!"

Dozens of people shouted, waving the same thing as the songbook, blocking the imperial street, blocking Zhao Xu's way back to the palace.

The imperial guards continued to appear, defended seriously, and began to draw their swords faintly.

Chen Pi was very worried and hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "The officials are all scholars and alternate officials, so let's hide."

These people have no official position and are very easy to be moved, but they are connected to the government and the country. Countless people pay attention to every move and cannot be easily moved.

Zhao Xu was so leisurely that he glanced at Han Zongdao and said, "Han Qing family, this is the first thing you did when you serve as a political affairs officer. To calm the disputes, to share the worries and problems for me, and to solve the court."

Han Zongdao really wanted to refuse again, but as the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture, he wanted to continue to refuse what happened before him, which was really unreasonable.

But if he dealt with this matter first, it would be equivalent to acquiesceing the promotion and the inheritance of Kaifeng Prefecture as a pilot reform!

From an "old party" to a "new party"!

He will be stung by scholars all over the world and scolded him!

Zhao Xu didn't give him a chance, so he said to Chen Pi directly: "Han Qing's family, please go to Kaifeng Prefecture, talk to them in detail, record their opinions, and write them to the court."

Han Zongdao was thinking about a solution quickly, but saw that Chen Pi had come to invite him.

Some people behind Han Zongdao had already seen it, and glanced at Zhao Xu's back and felt uncomfortable.

Mr. Han, this is unreliable.

How else can Han Zongdao refuse? He insisted on resigning at this time. The official family had an excuse to punish him severely, and even if he didn't kill him, there were some methods.

"Yes." Han Zongdao's heart was deep and he raised his hand helplessly.

Han Zongdao was the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture, the prime minister, and the person left by the Empress Dowager, and he was still very prestigious. After talking for a while, these people were hesitant and really dispersed.

When Zhao Xu saw this, he smiled slightly and walked forward with great strides.

It's really an unexpected gain.

After conquering the prime minister Su Song, and adding the prime minister Han Zongdao, the internal part of the "old party" was split and dismembered.

After Zhao Xu returned to the palace, he went directly to the confidential room and carefully checked the matter. Seeing that there was no new military information report on Huanqing Road, he went to Chuigong Hall to handle government affairs.

After two days in a row, there was no report on Huanqing Road, but some news spread quietly in Kaifeng City, causing rumors to spread and sensation. The atmosphere in Kaifeng City became more and more calm and full of tension.

The Xia people besieged Huanzhou, and the next step was Qingzhou, which was not far from the lockdown!

Empress Dowager Gao in Cining Hall finally couldn't sit still and summoned Zhao Xu.

The relationship between grandparents and grandchildren was subtle and they didn't see each other for a while. After hearing this, Zhao Xu pondered for a moment, then got up and came to Cining Hall.

Inside the Cining Hall.

The hall was very quiet, Empress Dowager Gao sat high with expressionless face. Zhao Xu sat at the lower left head, Zhao Hao was on the lower right hand, and Chenpi and Zhou He stood beside each.

Zhao Xu glanced at the teacup on the small table beside him, and without hesitation, he picked it up and took a sip.

Empress Dowager Gao's expression moved and continued to have a expressionless face.

Zhao Hao's face was pale, and he coughed from time to time, covering his mouth with a white handkerchief, but his eyes swept over Zhao Xu from time to time. Seeing him drinking tea without hesitation, his eyes flashed.

Zhou He felt the subtle atmosphere, turned to his side, saluted Zhao Xu, and said with a cautious look: "The official family is like this. I heard that you want to send a royal family to Kaifeng Prefecture?"

Zhao Xu was not surprised that the matter involved the "Crown Lord", and Empress Dowager Gao could not sit idly by.

Zhao Xu put down the teacup and said, "When this happens, I have been dead once after all. If there is any accident on one day, I have to prepare for the funeral."

Zhou He was originally going to answer the conversation and ask "Which Your Highness?", but he immediately shut up after listening to Zhao Xu's words.

Zhao Xu's words were too obvious, and he almost exposes them and says that the Empress Dowager and others will harm him.

Empress Dowager Gao snorted and said coldly: "You have no children yet, so you must not be determined easily, so as not to cause disaster in the future."

Empress Dowager Gao said this with great righteousness and dignity.

Zhao Xu didn't think about the authenticity of her words, so he looked at Zhao Hao and said, "Uncle Emperor, why don't you go?"

Empress Dowager Gao's face changed suddenly, and her eyes were as sharp as a sword.

What Zhao Hao was thinking in his heart was Zhao Xu's mother's brother, Zhao Si, the thirteenth son of the Shenzong. He didn't expect Zhao Xu to suddenly turn on him.

He was stunned for a moment, then coughed repeatedly, and he said anxiously: "Officials, you must not joke about such a big deal, and you can't afford it!"

Zhao Xu chuckled and said, "I am interested in the Emperor's uncle, but with the Emperor's uncle's body, I really cannot be responsible for the matter of Kaifeng Prefecture."

Empress Dowager Gao knew in her heart that Zhao Xu was alert to Zhao Hao, afraid that he would really have murderous intentions. This is her son, so he naturally needs to protect him.

Empress Dowager Gao looked cold and said lightly: "There are rumors outside that Huanqing Road is lost. I ask you, what is the situation?"

Actually, Zhao Xu didn't know what the situation was. Zhang Qing did not submit a battle report again.

The war has just begun, and the front lines of Song and Xia are very long. Perhaps Zhang Feng is not sure, so he still has to continue to observe.

Zhao Xu pondered and said, "Tell me a briefing to my grandmother. In this battle, all the fifth routes in Shaanxi participated in the battle, with more than 200,000 people, and Huanqing Road has not been lost."

Empress Dowager Gao was very tired of fighting and wanted a peaceful birthday during the Renzong period. She stared at Zhao Xu with her eyes, flashed, and said, "If it is a peace talk, is it still possible?"

"No!"

Zhao Xu sat upright and said in a deep voice: "It is the Xia people who are asking for peace. It is definitely not me, not my Song Dynasty! Grandmother, this battle will come sooner or later. Since it is coming, I will never retreat! In front of my grandmother, I will say that I am the emperor of the Song Dynasty. Even if the Xia people fight to Kaifeng, I will never bow my knees to seek peace! With the national strength of my Song Dynasty, let alone the small Xia Kingdom, even if the Liao Kingdom comes in full bloom, I will not lose!"

Empress Dowager Gao's face suddenly turned pale and her whole body was trembling with anger.

Zhao Hao's cough also stopped. He covered his mouth with a towel and looked at Zhao Xu with some surprise.

Zhou He bowed, his whole body was cold.

In his opinion, Zhao Xu's words not only declared his firm will to the Empress Dowager, but also revealed the true situation of Huanqing Road!

The Xia people are going to call us?!

Empress Dowager Gao had a blue face, and her eyes staring at Zhao Xu were filled with anger and regret.

If she hadn't been soft-hearted at the beginning and had given Zhao Xu too many opportunities, she would definitely not have allowed the situation to develop to this point today!

Zhao Xu knew about Empress Dowager Gao's body, but he didn't want to really anger her. He took another sip of tea and said, "Grandma, be relieved. The sky falls, I will bear it. There is still a lot of things in the Political Affairs Hall, so I will leave first."

Zhou He suddenly wanted to speak but stopped and quickly looked at Empress Dowager Gao.

The original plan was to ask Zhao Xu for a lot of things, but now I haven’t even asked the “Crown Jun” at the beginning!

Empress Dowager Gao looked ugly and angry. There was no need to ask any questions. Her grandson was more courageous than she expected, and she could not speak out!
