March Yimao (twenty-two).

The ministers of the two palaces recommended the ministers who were good at caring for the people, especially those who were able to take charge of one side.

On the same day, under the instruction of the Queen Mother.

The conversation between her and Zhao Xu in the Funing Palace was quickly spread throughout Bianjing through her own oral instructions to the ministers of the three provinces, the ministers of the six ministries, and the soldiers under Shi De.

Suddenly, everyone in Bianjing was praising him.

Everyone began to imagine the wonderful life that a small official would have in the future when he grew up and took charge!

At such a young age, he already understood the principle that "the people are the foundation of a country, and the foundation is the foundation of national security."

He actually set an example.

Even if the market change law is abolished and all laws are lost, the emperor's will will still be carried out.

Then, the Department of Purchasing the Embankment intends to stop Jingdong from questioning the law, and proposes that the horses of Jingdong horse farmers be taken back by the government. Those who are willing to continue to raise them will be converted into private horses and sold to the horse breeders at a price of 27,000.

household……

Putting these things together, it is easy for the people of Bianjing to construct an image of a kind and smart young official in their minds.

However, they don't need to use their own brains to think.

All it takes is to reawaken the memory of the same young man who came to the throne decades ago, the same kind and smart official.

And it just so happens that the official is also ranked sixth!

As a result, Zhao Xu's reputation and popularity began to rise, both at the top and bottom.

The small merchants and hawkers recalled the memory of the Renmiao era, when they could do business casually without the government controlling them. They all felt relieved and felt that they had hope for life!

The big merchants and nobles are even more satisfied.

These people all set their sights on the capital halls of the three provinces.

The emperor is so benevolent, why do the three provinces have ministers and act so slowly?

Relatives and clan members began to enter the palace in an endless stream.

The Gao family and the Xiang family were held in high esteem by all the stars.

Therefore, under the pressure exerted by relatives and clan members, and also under the pressure of public opinion from Bei Ke on Jingdong Road who harmed the people, on Bingchen day (23rd), the capital meeting finally decided to abolish the market change law and implement the market change.

The affairs were merged into the Metropolitan Commercial Taxation Institute on the spot, but the exemption law was still retained (the result hinted by Zhao Xu).

Although the method of equalizing losses has not been abolished altogether, no measures have been taken to deal with the loans and interest that have been owed to the market over the years.

But when the news came out, the whole city cheered!

Because the Trade Law was struck down, it meant that the purchase of the stacking yards, yard services and warehouses of the Embankment Department was imminent.

Money is expensive in Bianjing for a while!

As a result, prices plummeted!

Because all the powerful merchants are trying their best to clear out their accumulated goods in exchange for cash flow so that they can buy more stacking yards.

Accumulating a large amount of supplies and flooding the market in a short period of time will naturally lead to falling prices.

For this reason, people in Bianjing praised Zhao Xu more and more.

Because whether it is public opinion or legend, they all believe that it is precisely because of the young master's kindness that we have the good situation today!

In the court hall, on Bingchen day, ministers from the three provinces jointly presented the court etiquette during the period of the emperor's filial piety - during the emperor's national mourning, ministers can change the day and month, but as the filial son's heirs and princes, princesses and concubines cannot.

You still need to observe the three-year filial piety period.

Therefore, in the next three years, Zhao Xu and Queen Mother Xiang will still have to observe filial piety.

There should be no singing and dancing in the palace. On the death anniversary of the Daxing Emperor, fasting, memorial service and mourning should be held on his birthday.

At the same time, courtiers are not allowed to dance to express their congratulations on any occasion.

All that's left is the hearing process.

After some discussion, the etiquette for listening to government affairs was finally settled.

First, the ministers respectfully requested Zhao Xu to move his throne from the east to the north of the palace.

Then, considering that the Empress Dowager needed to take care of the heir, the ministers respectfully asked the two palaces to sit on both sides of the curtain behind the Emperor's throne, with the Empress Dowager's throne on the left and the Empress Dowager's throne on the right.

The ministers also submitted their submissions at the same time and began to restore the normal etiquette process of government affairs.

Basically, it means lowering the tone or changing the etiquette based on the past system.

Generally speaking, normal listening to government affairs and normal discussions are maintained.

Of course, as a filial son, you are not allowed to participate in the monthly ginseng and ginseng gatherings from now on. This is called not sitting.

But the ministers still had to go to Chongzheng Hall and Zichen Hall in separate groups to salute the empty emperor's throne.

The two palaces saw the book and replied: Yes.

So the next day, Wu Wu Day (24th), all the ministers entered the palace together and went to the Yingyang Gate to respectfully invite the emperor to enter the main hall and the imperial palaces of the two palaces to listen to the government.

Naturally, he was rejected on the spot.

But the ministers persevered and submitted three petitions before the two palaces agreed.

March Yiwei day (twenty-fifth day).

With the support of the two palaces, Zhao Xu listened to politics for the first time in the royal palace of Chongzheng Palace.

This time in the imperial palace, almost all the new kings came to the throne and granted rewards, favors, posthumous titles, and additional titles.

First of all, of course, the prime minister must be promoted to a higher position!

Then the two imperial uncles were granted the title of King Yong, King Hao of Yong was granted the title of King of Yang, and King Jia was granted the title of King of Jing.

Then Gao Zunfu, the biological father of the Empress Dowager, gave it to King Lu posthumously and avoided the name of King Lu.

The Empress Dowager Xiang's biological father sent a posthumous gift to the Prince of Xingyang County. Some officials asked him to avoid it, but the Empress Dowager refused.

Immediately afterwards came the conferment of titles and favors on the senior ministers.

There were so many titles, favors, and posthumous gifts that the court meeting lasted until the afternoon before everything was finally read out one by one.

At this time, a serious matter was finally brought to the court.

In February, there was a fire in Gongyuan, which burned most of the test papers. The Ministry of Rites requested to try again at a different date.

This matter is actually just a formality, because it has been decided in several previous political hearings.

Therefore, the two palaces issued an edict and agreed to conduct another rites examination in April.

At the same time, a new Gongju leadership team was appointed.

General Xu, the minister of the Ministry of War, replaced Li Ding and was appointed as Zhigongju. He was assigned to Lu Dian, secretary of the Ministry of War, and Sun Jue, the young eunuch who was the secretary, also served as Zhigongju.

The ministers whose names were called naturally went out to receive orders.

At this time, Zhao Xu finally looked intently at the palace.

His eyes stayed on Lu Dian for a moment.

Lu Dian has a great grandson!

Lu You Lu Fang Weng!

What a pity!

However, there should be a chance to meet in this life!

Now that the tribute matters are over, it's time to move on to military affairs.

Yousi requested that in the name of Emperor Daxing, Dong Zang, a vassal of the Song Dynasty in the northwest, be rewarded with the title of official title.

The two palaces naturally agreed and issued an edict to put Li Xian in charge of this matter. There were not many people in the Song Dynasty who were proficient in Tubo writing, and Li Xian was one of them.

After this incident, the lengthy court meeting came to an end.

After hinting to the Queen Mother, Zhao Xu stood up and, in the name of the Emperor, gave meals to the ministers participating in the court meeting.

…

After giving the food, Zhao Xu and the two palaces returned to the palace.

As soon as he returned to Funing Hall, Zhao Xu, who had been exhausted for a day, could no longer hold on. Under the service of the female officer, he went to the royal bed to rest.

It was already night when I woke up.

And in front of his bed, Shi Deyi's figure appeared in front of him.

This is what Zhao Xu ordered Feng Jing to do after the incident on Jingdong Road broke out.

Every night, he would see a stone and get it.

this is very simple!

Because Shi Deyi is now the most trusted minister around the Empress Dowager.

There is no problem for him in entering and exiting Funing Hall and Kunning Hall.
