Cai Bian and Liang Tao looked slightly stunned. No one was added to the Political Affairs Hall?

According to the plan, there were nine people in the Political Affairs Hall. Han Zongdao retired, Su Song was about to leave, and only two were left?

Can Zhang Dun and Cai Bian withstand such heavy government affairs?

Especially next year, the "new law" will be fully launched, so the government of the court will inevitably be even more arduous, and the government affairs hall is in urgent need of manpower!

But almost in a flash, Cai Bian understood and would not repeat it.

The resurgence of the "new law" requires unity from the court. If the two parties continue to balance in the political affairs hall and fight from top to bottom, it will inevitably be detrimental to national affairs.

Liang Tao followed Mingju, and his smile could not be concealed by the corner of his face.

The ‘New Party’ is back!

This time, it is a complete and comprehensive return!

During the Shenzong Dynasty, Emperor Shenzong insisted on reform, but paid considerable attention to the voices of the outside world. It was not that the "New Party" completely occupied the court, nor was it a one-man rule!

But now, it's!

After Zhao Xu said this, he caught a glimpse of the changing expressions of the two of them. He realized it, smiled slightly, and said, "If the Green Tile House is too busy, I can allow you to have an assistant."

Cai Bian bowed and said, "Thank you for your understanding."

As he said this, he was thinking about the court after Su Song left.

Once Su Song leaves, it means that the "old party" has officially lost its power and the "new party" dominates the court. The court's struggles may fall into a slump, but the opposition among the scholars will be more vast, and the boundless scope of the party struggle will be larger, more intense and deeper!

At this time, Liang Tao looked up outside, as if he heard countless shouts.

After Zhao Xu finished speaking, he picked up the teacup and said, "How long will the Zhangqing family return to Beijing?"

As soon as Su Song left, Cai Bian could not suppress the court, and the court became somewhat "headless".

Cai Bian said: "When returning to the official home, Zhang Zihou once wrote a letter to the Political Affairs Hall and is expected to return to Beijing in mid-April."

This is similar to what Zhao Xu estimated. He nodded slightly and said, "I will have to work hard for the Cai Qing family during this period."

Zhang Dun returned to Beijing for more than ten days. Once Su Song left, the government and the country would be in full swing. Cai Bian, as the only minister of the current dynasty in Beijing, would face such great upheavals alone.

"I dare not say that I have to do my job in my own affairs." Cai Bian said. He knew that he could not suppress the court, so he looked particularly serious.

Zhao Xu smiled. Zhang Dun was not here, but he was there; Cai Bian could not suppress the court, but he could suppress it!

After talking for a while, Zhao Xu asked someone to send these things to the Ministry of Revenue. After Cai Bian and Liang Tao left, they sat alone for a while, and then went to Cining Hall.

Empress Dowager Gao was still sleeping, but her face was not sick, but she was a little rosy.

Zhao Xu sat beside the bed, looking at Empress Dowager Gao's expression, and felt a little complicated.

Zhou He stood beside Zhao Xu. He followed Empress Dowager Gao for many years, with deep affection between master and servant, and a sense of guilt and worry on his face.

The imperial physician bent over and wiped the cold sweat from his head with some anxiety and said, "The reason why the Empress is sleeping in the official family is because of her calm mentality. The disease is not serious and she can wake up at any time."

Zhao Xu frowned, pondered for a while, and said, "Is it possible that he can't wake up..."

Zhao Xu didn't say anything, Zhou He turned to look at the imperial physician in a horror.

The imperial physician was startled, his mouth trembled, and hesitated: "It's possible..."

Zhao Xu frowned deeper and waved his hand.

The imperial physician was ashamed of a general amnesty and hurriedly left.

Zhao Xu tucked the corners of Empress Dowager Gao, sighed lightly, and said silently, "Please take good care of me."

Zhou He bent, his eyes gradually turned red, and he said, "Yes."

Zhao Xu sat quietly, with a calm expression. He thought a lot of things in his mind, both good and bad, all of which were related to the old lady.

Zhuang Sheng’s interlaced life like a butterfly is really complicated and the emotions are difficult to clear.

Zhou He was standing aside, looking at Empress Dowager Gao, and then glanced at Zhao Xu quietly, looking cautious and nervous.

He was the personal eunuch of Empress Dowager Gao, so he naturally knew that this young official ascended the throne. The most important period since he remembered was under the strict control and "teaching" of Empress Dowager Gao.

In the eyes of countless people in the court and the public, Zhao Xu's strict handling of Lu Dafang and others was all about "revenge", but the one who should really take revenge should be Empress Dowager Gao!

Zhou He lowered his head and did not dare to say much.

Zhao Xu also knew the rumors outside the palace and could also see the expressions of some people in the palace.

After sitting quietly for a while, Zhao Xu stood up and told Zhou He: "I've left it to you. If my grandmother wakes up, she will notify me as soon as possible."

"Yes." Zhou He tried his best to keep calm.

Zhao Xu glanced at him again and left Cining Hall.

As soon as he left the Cining Hall, Chenpi rushed over and said, "The official family, the concubine sent someone to ask if she was going to the Qingbiao Hall or Renming Hall for dinner?"

Zhao Xu said, "Has Tong Guan left?"

Chen Pi followed Zhao Xu and replied while walking: "Yes. There are some situations on Jingdong Road, and he is in a hurry to go back."

Tong Guan is now in charge of the bandit army, and cooperates with the "Fangtianjun Tax Law" in the north to clear out local bandits.

Although the bandit suppression army was only temporary and not included in the "Imperial Guard", it still caused some criticism from the government and the public.

How can this be done if the internal supervisor is in charge of the army?

Zhao Xu ignored these voices and walked straight, saying, "Well, I'll invite Xu Shangshu from the Ministry of War to come to the palace to accompany me for dinner."

Chen Pi said: "The official family has made an appointment with Mr. Su tonight."

Zhao Xu huh, remembered it, shook his head, and said, "I forgot about it too much. Tell Xiaoniang, saint, I can't go to the confidential room tomorrow, I want to talk to them again."

"Yes." Chen Pi responded. He looked up at Zhao Xu's side face, and the corners of his face moved.

The busiest person in the Song Dynasty is probably this official.

Zhao Xu returned to Chuigong Hall and continued to handle government affairs.

Until the evening, Zhao Xu shook his sore arms and looked up at the sky outside. Seeing that there was still some time before dinner, he took out a note, glanced at him, picked up a pen, and continued to write.

‘The essence of development lies in transportation. Now the official roads are not enough to cope with the current economic development… I still remember the cement, but I still have to experiment strictly. I have to go around the laboratory in the Taixue area often…’

‘The main route of canal transportation mainly consists of the Yellow River, the Yangtze River, the Huai River and the Canal, needs to be put into practice to rectify it. It can not only digest the impact of disarmament, but also an important measure to benefit the people... ‘Work-for-relief’, benefit the country and the people...’

‘The Jiangnan, especially the large and good fertile fields surrounding the major lakes, have not been developed, and various staple foods still need to be developed. It needs to be implemented with the help of the new law, and the population should be appropriately transferred to the south...’

‘The development of maritime transportation has sufficient foundation and needs to be vigorously inflated. Dali needs strategy, and external navigation should be put on the agenda…’

‘It is very important to open up the Northwest route. We must accelerate the development and deployment of the Northwest…’

...

Zhao Xu slowly wrote, all of his fragmentary ideas. These ideas were complex and huge, and they could not be implemented immediately. They were worried about forgetting, so they kept recording and waiting for the right time to implement them.

Chen Pi stood by the side. Seeing the sky, she quietly stepped forward, waiting for a gap when Zhao Xu wrote, and whispered: "Official family, it's almost time, it's time for Mr. Su to enter the palace."

Just as Zhao Xu was about to start writing, he let out a sigh, put down his pen, examined the messy notes, and said, "Well, let the imperial chef prepare, go to Funing Palace, prepare to order wine, and invite the saint to come."

"Yes." Chenpi said.

Chenpi left, Zhao Xu wrote another piece of paper, and then he got up and turned back to Funing Palace.

At this time, Su Song's carriage had already stopped at the palace gate. He walked down with the help of the butler, leaning on a crutch, looking up at the palace gate that had been back and forth countless times. At this moment, Su Song's heart gradually became heavier.

He thought he was no joy or sorrow, and was calm and at ease, but this last time he entered and exited, he still felt depressed and uncomfortable.

The housekeeper seemed to be able to understand Su Song's mood and said with a smile: "Don't the lord take Wen Zhenggong as an example? Why not be more free and easy?"

Wen Zheng and Fan Zhongyan's posthumous title.

Su Song sighed and said, "Mr. Wen Zheng was just talking about it back then. Now, who can be as calm as usual? Please wait for me here. The official family probably has nothing to say to me. It will come out soon, which is the last bit of decent."

The butler looked slightly shocked and said quickly: "Master, don't think too much, let alone talk more..."

He was really worried that at this time, Su Song would "give up" and say something "big rebellious". If this is the case, Su Song and the Su family might not be able to leave Beijing decently!
