Recently, Zhao Xu has frequently talked to senior officials at all levels such as the Political Affairs Hall and the Sixth Ministry, and Zhang Dun is the last one.

Zhang Dun was not surprised. After carefully reading the list, he handed it to Pei Yin and whispered: "Get a blanket for Xianggong Cai."

Pei Yin responded silently.

Zhang Dun stood up, left the green tiled house, and turned to Funing Hall.

Funing Palace is in Funing Palace, and Funing Palace is in a small imperial city, just a small courtyard.

Chenpi stood at the door, stepped forward and took two steps, raised her hand and bowed, "The villain has seen the eldest husband."

Zhang Dun looked serious and said lightly: "Can the official family have time?"

Chen Pi knew that these scholars outside never looked down on him, and Zhang Dun's current attitude was already considered good.

Chen Pi was with Zhao Xu for a long time, and she got used to seeing the big guys, quietly cultivated her face and said calmly: "The official is having a meal, please don't want to do it."

Before Chen Pi finished speaking, Zhang Dun had already walked in.

In the side hall, Zhao Xu was the only one here.

He was fiddling with the food on the table, steaming hot and fragrant.

Most of the dishes in the Song Dynasty were steamed and cooked. Zhao Xu was not used to it before, but now he thinks it is quite good.

Zhang Dun came in, looked seriously, raised his hand seriously, and said, "My minister Zhang Dun, please see Your Majesty."

Zhao Xu said to his extremely formal actions, and said, "The Qing family is here, sit down. This is the last day of this year. I have been thinking about it and I will live with the Qing family."

The Song people actually had no feelings about the New Year. The most important festival was the Lantern Festival.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Even though Zhang Dun didn't know that the New Year was very important to Zhao Xu, he was still serious and polite.

Obviously, he also knew that today's summons were different from the past.

Today is the last day of the eighth year of Yuanyou.

Strictly speaking, starting today, Empress Dowager Gao’s rule over the back of the curtain will be considered as the end, and the Your Majesty in front of him is the real rule!

Next year is the beginning!

Their reform of legal persons is the beginning of an unprecedented major change!

Zhang Dun sat down opposite Zhao Xu with a serious expression, with a straight, solemn and solemn posture, far better than being in Zichen Hall.

Zhao Xu glanced at him, continued to fiddle with her, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Cai is so tired that he falls asleep?"

Zhang Dun said: "Yes. Xianggong Cai didn't sleep all night one day and was really tired."

Zhao Xu nodded and said, "Thank you all for your hard work. Going past today, everyone will have five days off, everything will be discussed after the court starts."

Generally speaking, the 15th day of the first lunar month is about to be held in the court, and the annual holiday is twenty-five days.

Of course, not everyone is on holiday, but someone is still on duty.

Zhang Dun leaned over and said, "Thank you Your Majesty."

Seeing that Zhang Dun was so proud of his words, Zhao Xu put the jar of dishes around him on the small stove, and then sat back and said, "Your family is relaxed, there are no outsiders. You should be tolerant of those officials outside. If you are too strict, it will backfire."

Zhang Dun's stake in power is getting tighter and tighter. Not to mention the sphere of influence of the Ministry of Personnel, Ministry of Rites, and Ministry of Justice, Zhang Dun's sphere of influence is also constantly putting pressure on the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works to continuously bring power to the Political Affairs Hall.

This is an act of encouragement by Zhao Xu.

Zhang Dun bowed, his tone firmly said, "Your Majesty, I am a great official of the Song Dynasty. If I am a little lenient, I am afraid that the lower part will be loose."

Zhao Xu looked at Zhang Dun and wondered how to persuade his grandfather.

From his perspective, we can clearly see the advantages and disadvantages of many officials in the court and the opposition.

Zhang Dun’s shortcomings are that he is too straight and straight, not that he has no wrists, but that his wrists are too simple and rough and lacks rotation. At the same time, Zhang Dun is very different from Wang Anshi and others in tolerance.

The "old party" has actually been cleaned up in the court and the middle and senior officials. However, Zhang Dun's suppression and exclusion of the "old party" not only did not decrease, but instead became more radical, with a kind of determination that "it is different from me."

Wang Cun, Wen Yanbo, and Su Shi, if Zhao Xu had not promoted him with all his strength, he would not have gained a foothold in the court.

Even so, the "old party" is still like a lonely boat in the court, and may be overturned at any time, and in terms of power, it is firmly firmly locked up.

Even the treacherous ministers and powerful ministers of all dynasties did not cover up this kind of behavior, and they would take into account all aspects of their face.

Zhang Dun did not.

All his actions and purposes are simple and clear, without any hiding.

Bang bang bang

I don’t know how long it took, and one of the three jars on the table was steaming hot, spraying hot water, and opening the lid.

Zhao Xu retracted his thoughts and stretched out his hand to lift the lid, saying, "Everything should be done should be attributed to two words: rules. We must set rules when encountering things, and rules for prediction. For Chen Xiu's rigid rules, we must establish rules for emerging things, and for rules that are insufficient to deal with. This is the original intention and purpose of our reform. Our reform is not to destroy, but to create. We must base ourselves on the present, focus on the future, create new laws, adapt to the present, and look forward to the future. One day in the future, we will become Chen Xiu, and we also need to change, and they also need to establish new laws..."

Zhang Dun listened carefully and his heart was slightly shaken.

This is an explanation, an explanation of their "new law". The views in these words unraveled a lot of depression in Zhang Dun's heart, clarified the chaos in his mind, and broke through some inherent rigid thinking.

The more Zhang Dun thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more serious he thought about it.

Zhao Xu's words are a simple vernacular language, and in his mind, the "translation" of official language has been formed!

This will be their strong counterattack against the diehards who oppose the reform, and will be the guiding ideology of their "Shaosheng New Deal"!

Zhao Xu put on the lid, picked up the bowl, and put a bowl of vegetable soup on his own, saying, "When eating, talking."

As he said that, Zhao Xu took a bite, watched Zhang Dun pick up the bowl, and continued, "Change is the eternity of this world. People either change or are eliminated. We need to establish a lot of things now, but it is temporary. I can't explain clearly how long this is temporarily. As for national affairs, the first step is etiquette and law. I value "ritual" after "law", and the law should be the highest, and I and the emperors in the future should act within the scope of "law". "Etiquette" is the standard for dealing with people. Therefore, "ritual" is within the scope of "law". People should be within the scope of "law". They should not jump repeatedly on the edge of "law" and test left and right. Some laws should be relaxed, and some rules should be strict. These should be explored, improved, and perfected in practice, and not achieved overnight..."

Zhang Dun held the bowl with a more serious expression, and chewing the vegetables in his mouth very slowly.

The official in front of him obviously has a careful consideration of many things, but rarely says it.
Chapter completed!
