After saying this, Empress Dowager Gao took two bites of medicine, she waved her hands weakly, closed her eyes, and her expression seemed to have become much older in an instant.

Zhao Xu didn't expect that Zhao Hao's affairs would have such a blow to Empress Dowager Gao, so he waved his hand quietly and let everyone leave.

Concubine Zhu and Meiren Meng carefully looked at each other again before leaving quietly.

Zhao Xu sat at the head of the bed and saw that Empress Dowager Gao seemed to be asleep. He knew that she was talking not far away. After waiting for a while, he quietly walked out of the bedroom.

Outside the door, Zhou He stood beside him, lowering his head, and his whole body trembled constantly.

Zhao Xu didn't look at him, his eyes fell on Zhao Hao, who was kneeling on the ground, with a look of sorrow that he was more heartbroken than a heartbroken.

Zhao Xu thought about the list obtained from Wang Cun and Meng Yuanna, and said lightly: "They all confessed. Your chief minister is not someone who can resist the great punishment. Should you take it yourself, or try the great punishment of the Imperial City Department?"

Zhao Hao's body trembled violently, his head hit the ground, his whole body was cold, and he was silent for a long time, and said, "I'll write."

Zhao Xu snorted and left.

Zhao Xu left Cining Hall, breathed a long sigh, and said to himself: "It's finally over."

Chen Pi stood respectfully behind her, and her heart became more and more alert to herself.

The official in front of him had a deep mind, and even as the closest person, he could not understand his mind.

Chenpi felt that he knew nothing about how many people, how many trump cards he had in his hands, how he arranged them.

He thought, and couldn't help but look around. Behind him were yellow gates, palace maids, and imperial guards. He now even the person he trusted the most - could he be a member of the official family?

After Zhao Xu said this, he felt much more relaxed and had a smile on his face, but thinking about the next thing more, he walked towards the Chuigong Hall and said, "Let the three husbands come to Chuigong Hall to see me."

Chenpi responded, and while telling someone, he turned around and arched the palace with Zhao Xu.

Not long after Zhao Xu sat down in the Chuigong Hall, Su Song, Zhang Dun and others had not arrived yet, but Meiren Meng had arrived.

She was wearing white plain clothes, with a pale complexion, and she knelt on the ground in panic.

Obviously, she already knew about Meng Yuan.

Zhao Xu looked at her and sighed softly.

This Empress Meng was deposed and separated in history. The reasons are difficult to explain, but political and family factors are indispensable.

Zhao Xu went down for a moment, helped her up and whispered: "Some things were not intentional by me. I gave him more than once or twice your grandfather. I wanted to give him a chance, but he didn't want it."

Meiren Meng smiled sadly and said, "I don't blame the officials."

Their Meng family has always been very clear about their position. Not to mention her grandfather, even if she is the queen, she was actually the Queen of Empress Gao.

Her grandfather had no choice, and she didn't.

Zhao Xu looked at her and said, "I will not implicate you and Meng Tang's Chen Pi. He ordered the Political Affairs Hall to draft an imperial edict and make a name for Meng as the queen, and keep the ceremony simple."

Meiren Meng was stunned. Looking at Zhao Xu's expression without making a falsification, tears burst out from her eyes and knelt down again and said, "I thank the official!"

Zhao Xu didn't say anything more. Meng Yuan was dead and Empress Dowager Gao gave in and there would be no problem with her position in the future.

Chenpi responded, stepped forward to comfort her, and invited Meiren Meng away.

Zhao Xu looked at her back and sighed again. There was only so much he could do.

This is a strange woman. I hope she won’t have as many hardships in history and the ending is so miserable.

Su Song, Zhang Dun, and Cai Bian arrived. Looking at the sad expression of Meiren Meng, she was sceptical in her heart, and she was not missed, and she saluted them together. "I will meet with the official family (Your Majesty)."

Zhao Xu waved his hand and said, "Wang Cun, Meng Yuan and King Zhao Hao of Yan have provided a list of people involving military and political circles, hundreds of people including nobles, nobles, civil and military ministers, etc., all over our Song Dynasty. What do you think should you do?"

Su Song immediately snatched the words and said in a deep voice: "Officials, although I have not read these three lists, I also know that many of them have extraordinary identities. Please treat them lightly and ease."

Zhang Dun snorted and said, "People with ulterior motives must be treated with thunder. I ask Your Majesty to hand over this matter to the Political Affairs Hall."

Zhao Xu glanced at Cai Bian who was pondering and said, "Then let this matter be handed over to the Zhengshi Hall. In addition, I will talk about a few more things. The Zhengshi Hall will draft an order and send it here to stamp it."

Seeing that Zhao Xu was completely biased towards Zhang Dun, Su Song looked moved and silent.

Cai Bian had expected it long ago, so he didn't speak up and said that he would listen.

Zhao Xu clenched his fist with his right hand and gently tapped on the table. His face was tilted and his eyes were shining. He thought, "First, the Imperial City Department was officially transferred to the Political Affairs Hall. Second, the Three Yamen was abolished. Third, the Dali Temple was established as the highest judicial institution and declared case law. Fourth, sort out the powers and duties of various departments of the court, withdraw the renouncement of what should be revoked, and merge the merging of what should be merged. Before the end of the year, the formally reorganized central institutions will be promulgated. Fifth, the Political Affairs Hall will release a roadmap for reform before the end of the year..."

Su Song, Zhang Dun, and Cai Bian listened with a solemn expression.

As the end of the year approaches, the end of these rags will be put on the agenda for the resumption of the "Xining New Law".

Su Song's old face was straight and calm, and he didn't say anything.

The government and the government are aware of these things and have been entangled for a long time.

Zhang Dun's serious face seemed to move, and his aura seemed to change suddenly, like a sharp sword unsheathed, ready to go. He raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, will the era change next year?"

Cai Bian, who had been pondering, suddenly answered, saying: "The official family is now in trouble, and the shock to the government and the public is enough. In addition, the Empress Dowager is seriously ill, and it is reasonable. It is not appropriate to change the era next year."

Cai Bian's words seemed to be pointed, and Su Song and Zhang Dun all had their own unique colors.

Zhao Xu savored the taste and said, "Let's not change it for now. Do the current thing first. I have finished the above thing. Next, it's your turn."

Zhang Dun was a little unwilling to accept it and said, "I will receive the order!"

Zhao Xu nodded and said, "In addition, Meng Tang will not be the killing company. King Zhao Hao of Yan did not cultivate his virtues, and he will be dismissed from all honors and official positions. The candidates for the Dali Temple Minister will be discussed and reported to you after the Political Affairs Hall."

In the royal family of the Zhao family, there were bastards one after another, and there were very few people who could use them. Zhao Xu couldn't find a suitable one even if he blew it left and right.

Su Song, Zhang Dun, and Cai Bian had no objection.

Zhang Dun then said, "Your Majesty, I would like to resign from the position of Deputy Envoy of the Privy Council."

Zhao Xu nodded and said, "Zhang Yu's appointment edict is prepared. They will arrive in Beijing tomorrow, and I will leave the city to welcome you."

Seeing that he couldn't stop him, Zhang Dun stopped him and said, "Yes."

Zhao Xu thought for a while and said, "Go."

Zhang Dun's face was as horny as iron, and he said in a deep voice: "Abide by the order!"

Even though Su Song and Cai Bian had different ideas, they couldn't say anything at this moment.

When Zhang Dun left the Chuigong Hall, he received three lists handed over by Chen Pi.

Chen Pi held her hands and looked a little solemn, saying, "Zhang Xianggong, the official's intention is fully handled by the Political Affairs Hall."

Zhang Dun looked at the familiar names on the three-point list, his eyes were sharp and his face twitched, and he said coldly: "Please rest assured by the official."

Chenpi didn't say much, and returned to Chuigong Hall with anxiety.

Zhang Dun came to the green tiled room, sat on the chair, and continued to examine the three lists on the table.

Su Song and Cai Bian had already seen it, and the two looked at each other with a solemn expression.

Some of the people here are senior officials of the Emperor Shenzong, even the Emperor Yingzong dynasty, some royal relatives, and many military observers, regiment training envoys, military governors, and even the general manager who holds military power!

Their relationship network is intertwined and difficult to explain, but in the eyes of Zhang Dun and others, all of them should be classified as "old party".

"What are you going to do?" Su Song sat not far from Zhang Dun, leaning on a crutch, and said lightly.

If so many people are involved, how should we deal with it and arrest it? How to arrest it? If one is not good, it will be a big mess! It may also damage the holy name.

Zhang Dun had sharp eyebrows, glanced at the two of them, picked up a sealed edict, and said, "She Chen, announce this decree first."

Chen Qi was stunned and came forward to take it and saw that it was the imperial edict assigned to the Political Affairs Hall by the Imperial City Office.

Cai Bian and Su Song saw it, and they looked solemn and understood Zhang Dun’s plan.

Whatever the Imperial City Department of the Zhengshi Hall does? The blame lies with the Zhengshi Hall, and it is not a big blame for the officials in the palace. There are so many crimes, the Zhengshi Hall, or he, Zhang Dun, comes to resist!

Cai Bian looked at Zhang Dun and said, "Try to use as little as possible, and the Ministry of Justice will do it."

Zhang Dun understood what he meant and said lightly: "No need. I have failed once, I know how to do better. Go."

Chen Qi looked at Su Song and Cai Bian, and responded and turned around and left.

Zhang Dun waited for Chen Qi to leave, then looked at Su Song, Cai Bian and the others, their voices were as firm as a rock, and said, "I know you have ideas in your mind, but when the new law is restored, no one can stop it! I will do what the prince cannot do, I will do!"

Su Song stared at Zhang Dun, with only one thought in his mind: has this tiger finally been out of the cage and started to eat people?
