In addition to the Quanzhou Navy, Quanzhou Prefecture was also affected by this sudden advance exercise.

According to the plan, they all had to appear in the watchtower to "watch the ceremony", and some people also had to write a report.

Many people don’t have time, including the magistrate of Quanzhou, who keep sending people to negotiate, hoping not to come tomorrow because there are other things.

But all of them were rejected by Guo Cheng. In the name of "General Manager of the Marines of the Song Dynasty", he strongly demanded that officials of all sizes in Quanzhou Prefecture must be present as scheduled. Any absence will be deemed to be resigned and retired.

This made Quanzhou Prefecture very dissatisfied.

Zhao Xu could feel the bustle around Quanzhou.

He stopped and found an unexpected place.

Behind the right side of this straight and not long street is a river. There are more than a dozen brothels and bright casinos on both sides of the river!

Zhao Xu stood under a willow tree, first stunned, but then looked a little strange, and he looked quietly.

Hu Zhongwei saw Zhao Xu staring at the brothel and thinking that Zhao Xu would occasionally say "thinking about women" along the way, and he moved his heart and walked up and whispered: "Official family, if you want to go, villain can..."

Before he could finish speaking, he met Zhao Xu's very cold eyes.

Hu Zhongwei was startled and quickly retreated, saying, "The villain is confused, please punish the son!"

Zhao Xu snorted coldly and turned around and walked forward.

Hu Zhongwei shrank his head and followed him step by step. He could feel that Zhao Xu was really angry, and he was a little scared.

Zhao Xu didn't expect that behind this street, there were brothels and casinos and other things.

His face was angry and slowly returned to peace.

"It's not surprising..." Zhao Xu sighed lightly. In fact, what he should have thought of is that in the current luxury atmosphere, how could a golden nest like Quanzhou Port not have a golden nest?

Hu Zhongwei was a little nervous and didn't dare to speak.

Zhao Xu thought about it again and again, but still shook his head.

He could issue an order to seal all these brothels and casinos, or scold Guo Cheng and others, but it would not cure the symptoms, and there would still be one in the open and secret.

"Wait a little longer, wait until I can free up my hand..."

Zhao Xu said to himself that he was too busy. There were too many things. Quanzhou Port is just the tip of the iceberg. If you want to manage it, you have to do it systematically.

Zhao Xu returned to the restaurant with anger.

Mr. Zhong was already asleep, but Zhao seemed to have not slept much and was waiting for him to come back.

Zhao Xu pulled him into his room, and the two brothers lay down with their legs together.

Zhao Xu held the snack in his hand and ate it slowly, saying, "Tell me about some of your thoughts during this period, and what you think, not to mention your experience."

Zhao Si also held the snacks in his hand, but didn't eat them. He looked at the tent, thought for a while, and said, "Official family, I think the matter on Jiangnan West Road is a bit strange."

"How strange, just say it." Zhao Xu smiled and encouraged.

Zhao Si looked a little confused and said, "I don't think that Zong Ze is understood. What he does is not meticulous enough and is not very good at using people. Almost all people who do things are sent by the court. I have never seen him in Hongzhou Prefecture several times. I seem to be very busy and don't know what to do. But Li Kui is very serious in his work, and I like him. I think those Zhu Xie and Li Yan are hiding their thoughts. I don't like those people and things, so I'm awkward..."

Zhao Xu smiled and didn't say anything.

Zhao Si looked up and seemed to see Zhao Xu laughing, so she smiled, saying, "I think the matter of suppressing bandits is a bit wrong. Many bandits are ordinary people and are not really vicious, but the handling of Jiangnan West Road is a bit too strict and does not give anyone a way to live..."

"Many people are easy to talk to, and they also think that the court should reform, but... they are still very respectful to the officials..."

Zhao Xu ate the snack, reached out to grab the teacup, and said, "I just got anxious. Oh, by the way, Thirteen, I haven't asked you yet, what do you think of the new law?"

Zhao seemed to be exposed by Zhao Xu and looked up cautiously. Seeing Zhao Xu lying beside the bed drinking tea, she also sat up and said carefully: "Official family, do I want to tell the truth?"

Zhao Xu took a sip of tea, lay back, and said, "Otherwise, what do I ask you for? Okay, here are two brothers. Is there anything we can't say? Say what we can't say."

Zhao Si sat there, watching Zhao Xu eat snacks, with a little struggle, and said, "Officials, I think the new law is correct, it must change, but there are some things that the court did too eagerly and too strict, so there is no chance at all, and there is no room for ease. This... is not good..."

Zhao Xu put one hand behind his head and said, "I don't know how many people have said that. I didn't expect that you would be confused like this. In fact, it is strict, urgent, and not given room for relief because once you give it, it will become endless struggles. The reformists are minorities. In the face of surging debates, they can almost only retreat, make concessions, retreat step by step, and retreat step by step until they are in retreat. This is a kind of politics, and you will slowly understand it in the future..."

"oh……"

Zhao Si nodded slightly and said, "Then, can some people in the official family be forgiven? If they are really exiled, they will be miserable..."

Zhao Xu raised his head and saw the kindness in Zhao Si's eyes.

He pondered, sat up slowly, and said, "Thirteen, if I said, if my grandmother deposed me and made others the emperor, you, mother, fourteen, I, and your sister-in-law, Brother Quan, what would you think we would end up? Do you still have to, during that time you were under house arrest?"

Zhao Si seemed to recall something, her expression changed, and her face was tense.

He is not young anymore, and he should understand anything, but Zhao Xu has protected him so much that he has less contact with him.

Zhao Xu handed him the plate of snacks and said, "Don't think so much, you will know it slowly. I actually know the things in the court, right and wrong. When it is time to correct them, I will correct them. At present, I have to rely on them. Without them, I will become a lonely man."

Although Zhao Si didn't understand very much, he knew very well that without Zhao Xu, he would not have a good life, nor his little mother or sister.

He sat upright, nodded in a serious manner, and said, "Official family, I will definitely become your helper and do great things for you in the future!"

Zhao Xu reached out and touched his head, and then he realized that Zhao Si was already half a child and could indeed get married.

Zhao Xu slowly lay down and said, "Lying down. Before coming, my mother took my hand and cried and told me that I can't let you have anything to do, I want you to return to the palace as soon as possible..."

Zhao Si lay back, heard this, with a tense face and pursed his lips, and didn't say anything, but his eyes were full of longing.

Zhao Xu continued, "But I think you have never been idle since you were a child, so you should do something. From the water control of the year before, this year's bandit suppression, and after dealing with the affairs of Dali State, you can be appointed as the prince. At that time, you can choose your own choice if you practice literature and martial arts. If you do martial arts, I will ask you to lead a army. If you do literary affairs, you can go to Kaifeng Prefecture first..."
