Waiting for Zhao Xu to assign tasks to him.

At this time, Feng Jing had already put the carp he caught into the fish basket, and then took the carp left and right back ten steps away with him.

Zhao Xu returned to his chair and sat down and preached to Zeng: "Bachelor get up first, sit down and talk."

Zeng Bu thanked him again, then got up, came to the previous fishing spot, and sat down respectfully.

"It's been a few days since the bachelor's degree returned to Beijing?" Zhao Xu asked.

"Your Majesty, I arrived in Beijing on Yiwei this month!" Zeng Bu replied.

"Yeah!" Zhao Xu nodded and said with a smile: "I heard that after the bachelor returned to Beijing, the first thing he did was to express condolences and thank his wife..."

"Even the grandmother in the palace heard about the scholars and praised me: "It is our responsibility to cultivate oneself, govern the country and manage the family, and the scholars can be the example of contemporary scholars and officials!"

In the Song Dynasty, because of the high status of scholars and officials, they also had to bear great social responsibilities accordingly.

Like Cheng Yi, he said: Starving to death is a small matter of losing one's fortune!

A standard scholar-official official needs to serve the king as loyal, serve the father as filial, treat his wife as love, and be friendly with his brothers...

But what about...

Having said that, only what is missing can be emphasized and what is valued...

These scholars and officials of the Song Dynasty...

Zhao Xu curled his lips in his heart.

He knew that those who spoke better than those who sang.

Eating and drinking with public funds, prostitutes with public funds, and even raising outdoor rooms with public funds has become a trend.

When parents die, they will not die in order to make progress, and there is nothing new.

This work is compiled and uploaded~~

Even those who dig out their father's grave and steal the tombs of their ancestors are not an isolated case.

Didn’t Zhang Chengyi dig out the tomb of his father Zhang Qi, take out the funeral objects and hang them on him?

So...

Relatively speaking, Zeng Bu, who kept his adopted daughter secretly outside, might be able to compete for moral role models.

Yes, on the day Zeng Bu returned to the capital, Zhao Xu learned from Shi De that Zeng Bu raised a girl in Yimenfang.

Then after checking, the Investigation Department was shocked! Yo! This is a very trendy Madam Zeng!

The girl was actually the adopted daughter whom Zeng Bu and his wife Wei Wan had adopted.

Is this a training department?

Zhao Xu, who has studied in modern times, even after reading the report, he began to remember.

It seems that in modern unofficial history, there is a record that Zeng Bu’s concubine Zhang was sarcastic when Wei Wan was seriously ill and even angered Wei Wan to death!

Therefore, every word Zhao Xu said is actually a sarcasm to Zeng Bu.

Poor Zeng Bu didn’t know that his underwear had been pulled out!

He also said complacently: "I am afraid..."

As he said that, he lowered his head and began to pretend to be deep: "Since my wife got married, she has served her aunt, uncle, loved her brother and sister-in-law, and educated her sons... I really owe her a lot..."

"I often feel that this life is unlikely to be rewarded..."

Zhao Xu chuckled: "The bachelor's family has good help, this is a blessing for the bachelor!"

"Bachelor should take good care of a good student!"

"I remember your Majesty's virtues and voices!"

Zhao Xu nodded and said to himself: "I hope!"

However, Zhao Xu expressed pessimism about this.

Because Zeng Bu is a man who is known politically as both snakes and rats.

He belongs to the fence faction within the New Party.

When Xining reformed, he stabbed Wang Anshi on his back.

In Zhao Xu's previous life, he also stabbed Zhang Dun and Zhao Xu, the old father.

How could he be loyal to his marriage?

Maybe, modern unofficial history may be true.

Zeng Bu will be spoiled in the future and will destroy his wife! He will commit the great crime of a scholar-official and a doctor!

But it doesn't matter!

Because this time, he may not be able to hold on that day.

Zhao Xu asked: "Have you ever paid attention to the government affairs these days when the bachelor returned to Beijing?"

Zeng Bu lowered his head and said, "I heard from Your Majesty that since I returned to the capital, I have visited many friends and read the residence and court newspapers..."

"Then the bachelor should have heard of it. Now in the palace, the clerks are illegal and harming good things, right?"

Zeng Bu immediately cheered up, and he knew that the play meat was coming.

He immediately said, "I have heard something."

Then, he began to stand in line: "Your Majesty has promoted the sages and virtues, and has been grateful to all the people in the government, exempted from taxes, eliminated bad policies, and praised the elders in the village and the wise people in the neighborhood!"

"However, the clerk is illegal, does not obey His Majesty's edict, does not care about good and suffering, but instead blackmails, blackmails, and frames..."

"After I entered the capital, I heard about all these things and felt sad!"

When Zhao Xu heard this, he sat upright and asked, "What if the scholars come to deal with all kinds of clerks... what should the scholars do?"

Zeng Bu swallowed his saliva and immediately stated: "Appoint an envoy to obey the edict of Your Majesty to deal with this matter. I shall obey the edict and punish all officials according to the law..."

As he said that, he said murderously: "Your Majesty, the late emperor has established the "Cang Law". Those who receive less than a hundred coins will be punished for one year, and every hundred coins will be increased by one level; a thousand coins will flow for two thousand miles, and a thousand coins will be increased by one level, and a maximum of three thousand miles can be paid for three thousand miles, or even a mafia will be punished by the Sarmon Island! I should follow the law!"

Zhao Xu suddenly hesitated: "Is it so serious?"

"Would it be too harsh?"

Zeng Bu raised his head: "Report to Your Majesty: Since ancient times, no serious punishment cannot be established!"

What Zhao Xu wants is Zeng Bu's attitude.

And he had already expected Zeng Bucheng to make such a statement!

In the previous life, Zhao Xu and Zeng Bu cooperated tacitly for several years.

How could he not know Zeng Bu’s style of doing things?

Zeng Bu either doesn’t do it or does it outright!

Zhao Xu then said, "In this way, I will ask the bachelor!"

"Tomorrow, I will issue an edict to Xuanma, and be appointed as the Minister of the Secretariat, and also in charge of the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple!"

Zeng Bu was overjoyed and immediately bowed his head and said, "I thank Your Majesty for your kindness!"

"I should not let down Your Majesty's entrustment and strictly deal with illegal clerks in the palace!"

"Good!" Zhao Xu praised: "Then I will entrust all the cases to my husband!"

Zeng Bu heard the word "官网" spitting out of Zhao Xu's mouth, and thought that he would be able to get rid of the Ma immediately and enter the two palaces. He was floating for a moment, not knowing where he was!

...

After seeing Zeng Bu off, Zhao Xu pursed his lips, called Feng Jing to his side, and said to him: "Feng Jing, go and tell Shi Deyi!"

"Let him act according to the imperial edict!"

"promise!"

In the evening of that day, Shi Deyi personally deployed the task in the Investigation Department.

Several experienced Luozhangs in the Investigation Office immediately rushed out of Bianjing City before the city gate was closed and went to all sides.

Since the eighth year of Yuanfeng, relying on the income from Bianjing Xinbao and the cooperation of many merchants, including Sun Ci.

The current affairs department has extended its tentacles to the entire Kaifeng Prefecture Realm.

Completed full coverage of the palace world.

Nowadays, the Investigation Department can basically do it. Every ten days, it summarizes the situation of the county and towns in Fujie and provides Zhao Xu with a briefing on Fujie.

The main reasons are price fluctuations, local people's conditions, and weather conditions.

Occasionally, there are some shitty things about local wealthy households or local officials.

On average, each county will have a rough description of about 100 words.

For Zhao Xu, this was enough to let him grasp the situation in Kaifeng Prefecture.

This is crucial to the imperial power!
