Meng Tang naturally didn’t know that Suzhou Prefecture is interesting.

Zhao Xu lay halfway down on the soft collapse, and the songbook in his hand slapped his knees, and the smile on his face became more and more.

The Political Affairs Hall in charge of Zhang Dun has been replacing prefectures and counties across the country, replacing those who are "stubborn" and supporting "reform".

In most cases, it went smoothly. Even if there were some backgrounds and some means, they could not resist the court.

But Sima Xiangde is an exception.

Sima Xiangde is indeed from the Sima family, but he has no "prosperity". He was still a prefect of Suzhou Prefecture in his fifties and failed to show his strength in Bianjing City.

After Sima Guang's death, the Sima family was far inferior to before and failed to continue their political power like the Fan and Han families. Sima Xiangde had no backing in the capital, but he was just like this. Zhang Dun and others tried to be transferred repeatedly but failed.

"The methods of this Sima Prefect must be very interesting." Zhao Xu couldn't help but smile, curious, and couldn't wait to see Suzhou Prefecture.

Meng Tang stood not far away, glanced outside, and said, "Officials, I heard that this Sima prefect is very famous and has a very high evaluation of the government and the government."

Zhao Xu glanced at him and said, "Wang Chengming, do you know?"

Zhao Xu didn't know about this person, and his grade was too low and he had no impression of him at all.

Meng Tang thought about it carefully and said, "I have no impression, but I heard that the Political Affairs Hall is very concerned about Suzhou Prefecture and the selected Censor is said to have been jointly recommended by the Censorate and the Ministry of Personnel."

"oh,"

Zhao Xu smiled and said, "I remember that, it's interesting. Go and stop him, don't let him return to Beijing, I want to see him."

"Yes, I'll go now." Meng Tang raised his hand and said.

Zhao Xu nodded, glanced at the pile of memoirs beside him, and took it over with a little boredness.

I looked through it and found that it was the Ministry of Revenue’s memorial, and it was full of bitterness. The treasury was overdrawn and could no longer find any money, but the government affairs hall was too forced to do so.

Zhao Xu put it aside and picked up another one.

This is a memorial from the Ministry of War, a memorial from Guo Cheng, the chief manager of the Navy. It is related to the dispatch of the navy and also about the "Xia Yi". In essence, it still requires money.

Zhao Xu got another copy, which was a copy from Chengdu Prefecture Road. In the copy, Lu Huiqing talked about his plan, hoping that the court would "replenish military pay."

Zhao Xu sighed lightly, threw all the memoirs back, and said helplessly: "Everyone says that the Song Dynasty has money, so I'm almost selling underwear..."

Zhao Xu looked out the window and had a headache.

Whether it is disarmament or layoffs, large amounts of "compensation" are required. As the layoffs increase, the court's expenditure will only increase or decrease in the next two years.

As the reform advances, tax revenue has been decreasing.

As time goes by, life is quite difficult. His inner treasury has been out at least 6,000 guan, and the day of returning to his capital is nowhere to be achieved.

"Jiaozi..." Zhao Xu thought about something. What can be added now is Jiaozi, but the implementation of Jiaozi is too difficult and it takes time to slowly accept it.

Zhao Xu's fleet slowly reached the shore, and a large group of people began to anchor and were busy preparing to get ashore.

Zhao Xu stretched, changed into regular clothes, and came to the deck.

The father and daughter of the Li family followed and saluted behind him.

Zhao Xu held a folding fan in his hand, waved it, looked back at Li Ke, and said, "I heard that the Qing family had been in Suzhou Prefecture before, what delicious food and fun is there?"

Li Ke also traveled around the world in his early years, so Suzhou Prefecture naturally came to his hands and said, "If you say something delicious, the roast duck and roast goose in Zhuangyuanlou, Wangjianglou are all very good. The homemade daughter Hong is the best, and you can't find it outside. Funny things are the Qinhe River, especially at night, where flowers and boats are weaving, singing and dancing are constantly... "

Zhao Xu laughed and said, "Then go to Zhuangyuan Building to eat roast duck, drink daughter Hong, and leave."

Hu Zhongwei followed Zhao Xu, with a lot of plainclothes.

Li Qing stood beside Li Ke, looking at Zhao Xu occasionally, and felt very strange. What did the government do with folding fans just now?

Zhao Xu walked forward with a look on his own, and after a few steps, Chu You arrived.

Chu You was darker than before and had lost a lot of weight.

Zhao Xu looked at him and said with a smile: "Let's go and accompany me to the Zhuangyuan Building for dinner."

Chu You has been taciturn since when he started. Although he is the chief manager of one of the three major camps and Zhao Xu's confidant, he is far superior to the general chief manager. However, he has always been low-key, neither fighting nor robbing, and the government and the country are in trouble, but he rarely affects him.

Chu You responded and found Zhao Xu with expressionless expression behind him.

Hu Zhongwei quickly took a step back with a respectful expression.

In Zhao Xu's original football team, they are now developed. Hu Zhongwei is actually a later generation. In front of Chu You, Liu Heng and others, they are all juniors.

Zhao Xu and his group had five on the surface, but in fact they didn’t know how many in secret.

The crowd was walking in the garden, chatting while walking.

On the other hand, Meng Tang left the fleet earlier and went straight to Wang Chengming.

After these days, Wang Chengming has received the "recall" order from the Censorate. He is calm and complicated and has packed up the few salutes, and is ready to return to Beijing.

Pingjiang County, Ferry.

Wang Chengming held his hands behind his back, looking at the boat that was approaching, with a calm expression, but sighed in his heart.

There was a entourage next to him who looked like a minor official and said unhappily: "Censor, I'm afraid it's not easy to go back this time."

Wang Chengming's task was very simple, just to deal with Sima Xiangde. As a result, he not only failed to deal with it, but instead protected Sima Xiangde.

How could the imperial court allow him to let him go? After returning to the capital, he would be in prison.

Wang Chengming calmly said, "It's not as serious as you think. I'm reporting it according to the truth. Even if Sima Xiangde has any problems, it's just that I'm just a newcomer and haven't found it."

The little official's mouth moved and shook his head secretly. This kind of rhetoric could have been fooled in the past, but in the current court, which husband can rub sand in his eyes?

Wang Chengming didn't care what the little official thought, looked at the river calmly and said, "Have you given the letter I asked you to Xianggong Cai?"

The little official said: "It has been sent out. I asked them to calculate the time and will definitely come to Mr. Cai the night when the censor arrives."

Wang Chengming nodded, looked at the boat that had already landed, and sighed secretly, and was about to get on the boat.

"Civil Secretary Wang please wait." As soon as Wang Chengming stepped onto the boat with one foot, a shout came from behind.

Wang Chengming stopped and turned to look. He saw a young man rushing over on a horse.

Wang Chengming looked carefully and felt familiar. He also had a Bian Jing accent, and he was waiting with a motionless expression.

The person coming was Meng Tang. He sat on the horse, looked at Wang Chengming who was in the light car, smiled slightly, and said, "Chief Wang, come with me, someone wants to see you."
