There are all kinds of things inside and outside the court, and no one is idle.

When the six ministries were busy, noisy and controversial, the next morning, Wen Yanbo made two memorials as the "old minister of the central government".

The first is to accuse the chaos in the court over the past year, denounce some people to "eat the king's fortune and destroy the country's pillar", "enjoy glory and forget their duties", "talk freely and do things mediocrely". They call on the court to strictly enforce the court's discipline and lay a solid foundation for the change of the era next year and the "Shaosheng New Policy".

If this memorial was not signed by Wen Yanbo, it must be an extremely ordinary memorial. There are often people with this kind of memorial. Either the "New Party" defends the "New Law", or attacks dissidents, or they want to rely on the "New Party".

But this was written by Wen Yanbo. It seemed to be discussing the matter and criticizing some chaos. After careful consideration, I found that this was a memorial to "rejection". Wen Yanbo was expressing his opinion and supporting the "Shaosheng New Policy"!

Wen Yanbo has been in Beijing for some time, and too many people have known about it. He has always been very low-key and has not appeared. This is the first time this memorial is written.

The big boss of the "old party" suddenly turned to the "new party" and supported the "new law" and was in an instant in Kaifeng City.

The news of the memorial spread, and I don’t know how many indignant people wanted to see Wen Yanbo.

Wen Yanbo could not see him in the palace. Dozens of people were struggling and blocked the Wen family's door. If he couldn't break in, he would curse at the door, saying whatever he heard was ugly.

"Old but not die is a thief, old man Wen!"

"A good person doesn't live long, and the disaster will last for thousands of years. Old thief Wen, why don't you die yet!"

"You die sooner, I see what your face is going to see Sima Xianggong!"

...

The Wen family is much smarter than the Zhang family. They let the outside curses and just don’t open the door.

This is the first one. Wen Yanbo's second memorial was about the dilemma of the "New Policy" of Jiangnan West Road" and the "He Yi's Death".

The memorial was even more intense, and it denounced some people from Jiangnan West Road to ignore national laws, disrespect His Majesty, ignore the court, murder the imperial envoy, and make ill-intentioned plans.

These crimes are very serious. With Wen Yanbo's identity, the court must have an attitude!

Sure enough, on the same day, Grand Prince Zhang Dun convened an enlarged meeting of the Political Affairs Hall.

The Political Affairs Hall, the Six Ministry, the Censorate, Dali Temple, Kaifeng Prefecture and other major officials were all present. Surprisingly, the Imperial College Priest Shen Kuo was also listed.

The conference hall of the Zhengshi Hall is not big, with more than 30 people, just enough to be placed at the door.

Zhang Dun sat in the main seat, Cai Bian on his left and vacant on his right. The next one was Wen Yanbo and the next one was Xu General, the Minister of War.

Cai Bian's right hand was Li Qingchen, Minister of Rites, and then Lin Xi, Minister of Personnel.

The other ministers, ministers and others sat down one by one.

Everyone knew that today we had to make decisions about major issues, so we held our breath and looked at Zhang Dun.

Zhang Dun's face was dark and serious and upright. He looked around the people who were accused of raising his hand.

Pei Yin walked over with a plate, with official documents half a person tall piled on it.

Zhang Dun took out the relatively thin document at the top and said: "The laws of the Great Song Dynasty, the political system of the Great Song Dynasty, the military law, the twenty-three rules of the royal family, the law of title and salary, the law of marriage, the law of taxation..."

Zhang Dun said more than twenty in one breath, then looked at everyone and said, "It has been brewing for a long time. The Political Affairs Hall has decided. Today I will present it to the Chuigong Hall. Please allow the official family to approve. Do you have any other opinions?"

Everyone looked calm, and even if they had something to say, they would not speak.

These laws have been argued too much and for too long. Since the Political Affairs Hall has decided on the case, it will be useless for them to talk about them.

"No." This is Cai Bian's speech, breaking the cold.

Zhang Dun was put back and said, "'Draft of the Imperial Guard Reform, Mr. Wen, have you read it, do you have any opinions?"

Wen Yanbo was thin and short, and was particularly conspicuous among a group of people. He listened to Zhang Dun's words and said, "The Imperial Guard, as the name suggests, is the army of the Forbidden Palace. The abuse of the word "Imperial Guard" is disrespectful to the officials. I agree with the regulation of the Imperial Guard. Except for the three major camps inside the palace and outside the city, other troops, including the Imperial City Division and the Qingtianwei, cannot be called the Imperial Guard."

Zhang Dun turned to the others and said, "This draft will be sent to the Privy Council later. Please handle it as appropriate. The emperor will submit it to the official's approval."

This matter is actually very controversial and is part of the "military reform". But compared with the "military reform", this is just the superficial, and no one speaks out.

Zhang Dun continued, "You have read the list of 'Beijing Cha', so let's talk about it. The Ministry of Personnel will come first."

Lin Xi, the Minister of Personnel, looked indifferent, glanced at a group of people, took out their letters, glanced at them, and said, "Da Xiang, after a year of investigation, he found many people who were just a mess, who were just eating and waiting for death, even being unkind as officials, levying heavy taxes, corruption, and being overly dependent on matters, etc. These people are not worthy of being officials. The meaning of the Ministry of Personnel is to be cleared out in stages, steps, and in half a year, and will never be used again."

Liang Tao, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, responded, and said: "Shangshu Lin, although this list can be kept confidential at present, it may not be kept confidential for so long for half a year. I am afraid that there will be more dreams."

Lin Xi glanced at him and said, "Discussing it in one breath is too much."

Lin Xi’s meaning is very simple. Next year’s ‘Shaosheng New Policy’ needs to stabilize the place and replace those prefectures and counties on a large scale, which may lead to chaos all of a sudden.

Liang Tao thought about it and did not answer again.

Su Shi sat opposite Lai Zhishao, silent and silent, listening to Zhang Dun's announcement of orders and making decisions on those things.

Until Lin Xi said that he couldn't help but say, "Shangshu Lin, are these investigations detailed and there is a clear evidence, or are they just frank comments, or are they some preferences?"

Su Shi was very tactful, just almost saying that this is the "New Party" that rejects dissidents.

Everyone looked at him, but no one paid attention to him and looked at Lin Xi.

Everyone is careful in such a conference, for fear of causing trouble.

Lin Xi said: "This Beijing inspection was jointly investigated by the Censorate and the Ministry of Personnel. It took a year to comprehensively conduct actual investigations, reviews, assessments over the years, and various case files. I cannot say that I am sure, but I am 80% sure."

Su Shi tightened his face and said, "Is the court so hasty when it acts?"

Lai Zhishao snorted coldly and said, "This is the greatest forgiveness of the court. It really needs to be investigated strictly. It is the list of Beijing inspections. Half of the heads are beheaded, and no one is wronged!"

Huang Lu looked bad and said, "Shangshu Su, if you want us to tell us evidence, you have to tell us evidence when you speak. I will personally send a copy of this list of "Beijing Inspection" to Shangshu Su later, and ask Shangshu Su to check to see which one is wronged. Of course, if some investigations are not detailed or those who are too ruthless, please give back a few."

Just as Su Shi was about to continue refuting, Zhang Dun raised his hand and said, "It's been too long for half a year, three months. As for whether there is any wrongdoing, let them write a letter and declare it themselves, just check it one by one. Let's talk about the 'authority law' first."

Many people instantly put down Su Shi, sat upright, and looked at Zhang Dun seriously.

The "State Law" is about them, a very strict law.

The "Official Law" stipulates the rank, salary, treatment enjoyed by officials, those who are in office and those who have retired, and strictly restricts the behavior of officials, including doing business, buying and selling land, shops, mansions, slaves, etc.

Even standardized regulations were made regarding the number of wives and concubines of officials, the number of slaves, the treatment of slaves, the body sales contract, etc.

These are closely related to those here, and no one dares to be careless.

The "State Law" is a product of constant compromise and concession in the disputes between the government and the country. Even so, the officials of the government and the country are still wary and unwilling to promulgate such laws.
