When the crowd heard Zhao Xu summoned him, they couldn't help but look at each other, especially Han Zongdao, who suddenly became nervous.

Zhang Dun sat quietly for a moment, handed back the official document from Han Zongdao to him, stood up and said, "Let's go."

When Zhao Xu summoned him, he naturally had nothing to say. Su Song, Zhang Dun, Cai Bian, Han Zongdao, and Su Shi successively left the green tiled house and turned to the Chuigong Hall.

At this time, Zhang Feng in the Privy Council was already arranging the next matter and was preparing to go to various routes in the north to inspect the "military reform". Hearing the message from the Yellow Gate, the white hair on his temples fluttered gently, and after giving a few more words, he also went to the Chuigong Hall.

At this moment, in the palace.

Zhao Xu has obtained a more detailed investigation report than Han Zongdao. Looking at the list, he has no expression on his face, but he is secretly alert and angry.

He had basically no impression of what happened during the Xining period, and at most he saw a little bit of a claw from some information.

But the things that were tried in this pilot still shocked Zhao Xu.

There are sixteen counties under Kaifeng Prefecture. From the case of "Burning Kaifeng Prefecture", a single official matter was involved. Four magistrates, equivalent to one-tenth of the senior officials in Kaifeng Prefecture oppose the reform. This was the result of careful selection by Zhang Dun and others!

What will happen if it is put nationwide?

Zhao Xu thought of some things during the Xining period and frowned deeply.

Fortunately, he carefully chose to pilot the project first. If the "Xining Law" was fully restored as required by Zhang Dun and others, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At this time, Su Song led the five people behind him into the Chugong Hall. The six of them looked up at Zhao Xu quietly. Seeing that he looked at the table expressionlessly, without the approachable enthusiasm he used to have, each with a different expression. When he came closer, he raised his hands and said, "I will meet with the official family (Your Majesty)."

Zhao Xu did not react at all and continued to look down.

Among the six people here, Zhang Dun and Zhao Xu have the most tacit understanding. The tacit understanding lies in the cleaning of the court and the layout of the "new law". But the one who knows Zhao Xu the most is Su Song.

This old man in his seventies has been ups and downs in the officialdom for decades, and has repeatedly confronted Zhao Xu and has a very thorough understanding of many things.

Seeing that Zhao Xu didn't speak, he vaguely guessed that Zhao Xu already knew.

Feeling that the storm was coming, the old man who was used to seeking stability spoke, raised his hand, and said, "Official family, Su Shi is here to apologize."

Zhao Xu then raised his eyes and looked at Su Shi.

Su Shi knelt on his knees, held up the memorial, and said, "My minister Su Shi knows the crime, so he asks the official to sue him."

Zhao Xu looked at him, snorted coldly, and said, "You know the crime? You know the crime. Then Ningyuan Hou also knows the crime. Everyone knows the crime, but what should you do is do! In your eyes, my will is not as good as wiping the paper, right?"

All such vulgar words ass wiping the paper!

Su Shi, Zhang Dun and others looked at Zhao Xu and became more cautious.

Su Shi's face changed slightly, and he crawled and knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word.

He did not explain the reasons for abolishing the imperial examinations as he did to Su Song, and he honestly pleaded guilty.

When Zhao Xu saw this, he turned to Zhang Dun with a calm face and said, "Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, have you sealed it?"

Zhang Dun bowed calmly and said, "Yes. The Imperial City Office has surrounded the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion and is investigating it."

Su Song glanced at Zhang Dun and said nothing. He knew very well that this matter was mostly a conspiracy between the king and his ministers. Without Zhao Xu nodding, Zhang Dun did not dare to confiscate a lord.

Zhao Xu stared at Zhang Dun, his eyes gradually became colder, and his expression changed slightly.

Since he took power, all kinds of things that happened in the court have never been cut off. Even if the top leaders have been cleaned up, the middle and lower classes are still complicated and difficult to understand.

Especially this time, there are serious problems in the "New Law Team", which makes Zhao Xu more understand that reform is a matter for a small number of people!

Zhang Dun, the leader of the "New Party", is just like Wang Anshi. Even if he thinks about the candidates repeatedly and thinks about them, the one who should be rebelled will still be rebellion!

Han Zongdao felt the atmosphere a little depressed, raised the official document, and said, "The official family, the case of 'Burning Kaifeng Prefecture' has made progress, please check it out."

Chen Pi looked at him, stepped forward and took it, turned around and handed it to Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu didn't look at it at all, put it aside, stared at Zhang Dun, and said, "Zhang Qing's family, should you give me an explanation? The people from Kaifeng Prefecture were the ones you chose to make some official business. Sixteen magistrates and four formed an alliance that secretly opposed the new law. This was found, and there were no ones that were found! "

Everyone listened to the anger contained in Zhao Xu's plain words, and their expressions changed immediately.

Zhang Dun did not explain, and knelt on the ground and said, "The case of the fire burning Kaifeng Prefecture is that the person is unknown and the person is unknown. The alliance against the "new law" in Kaifeng Prefecture is that the person is insufficient in ability and virtue is deficient, and it is not enough to convince the public. I ask Your Majesty to punish him."

Su Song frowned slowly as he heard this. The biggest person in charge of this matter was naturally Zhang Dun, but Zhang Dun could not leave!

As the leader of the "New Party" and the actual conductor of the "New Law". At the critical moment when the "New Law" was about to resume in the court's reform, if he was dismissed, the balance between the "New and Old" parties would be quickly broken and the court might collapse!

Such consequences were unimaginable. Su Song immediately raised his hand. Before he could speak, Zhao Xu's words had already been smashed.

"Grandpa Su, this Chaoxu is about to end. As the prime minister, you are not waiting in the Political Affairs Hall to preside over the overall situation. You ran outside the city to study your inventions? Is the Political Affairs Hall so idle? There are so many people and things in the court, so it is not enough to make Su pay more attention to it? The case of the Kaifeng Prefecture has led to the internal strife of the New Legalists. Are you always happy? Do you hope that there will be more such things? I will give up. Let's go to Nanshan together. You study your inventions and creations. I am arrogant and licentious in the palace, drunk and dreaming. I should enjoy the enjoyment before my life, no matter how floods are behind him, the sky is falling and the earth is sinking..."

Several people in the Chuigong Hall were shocked and did not dare to look up at Zhao Xu. Zhao Xu had always been close to gentle ministers, and had never been so sarcastic and rarely spoke heavily!

Su Song twitched his face, put down his crutch, and then knelt down, saying, "I... I know the crime."

Zhao Xu stared at Su Song coldly, and then looked at Cai Bian.

Cai Bian didn't use Zhao Xu's words and immediately knelt down and said, "I have failed to supervise so much that there are such a big mistake. I beg the officials to punish me!"

Zhao Xu snorted coldly, turned to Han Zongdao, and said, "Grandpa Han, you are the political affairs of the magistrate of Kaifeng Prefecture. Do you really not notice these people? You still notice it, turn a blind eye. Anyway, it is the battle within the new party. You sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight and let them fight. Anyway, the surname Zhao in the world has nothing to do with you. If I suddenly realize and abolish the new law one day, you can still take the opportunity to seek credit, be the second Sima Guang, and become the "Three Sages' Minister", and be famous in history..."

Han Zongdao hesitated and struggled, kneeling very quickly, and said in a trembling voice: "I don't dare!"

Han Zongdao knelt down and stood in the hall. Only the Privy Councilor Zhang Yu was still standing.

Zhao Xu stared at the five people kneeling, with a cold expression and a quick mind.

The 'Kaifeng Prefecture Pilot' is related to the reform plan and must be vigorously implemented. No setback can stop his determination!

Su Song, Han Zongdao, Zhang Dun and Cai Bian each have their own attitudes towards the "New Law". The problem exposed this time is that the people below are scattered and the people above are not united enough!

Zhao Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, and his heart was full of thought. After a long time, in the cold silence, he suddenly shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone in the Zhengshi Hall has lost his moral integrity and is kind to the minor affairs. He is afraid of evasion and is indifferent to the situation. Everyone is demoted to the third level. Please stay in the Zhengshi Hall for help!"

Chenpi listened on the side, his expression changed in shock.

All four husbands in the Zhengshi Hall were demoted to third-class level?

Chen Pi quickly restrained her expression, looked at Zhao Xu quietly, and couldn't help but turn to the four kneeling husbands.

This has been downgraded to the third level. If something happens again, there is no reason to keep them?

Even if Chenpi was watching coldly, she was still a little panicked.

If something happens again in a short period of time, even if one of these husbands leaves, it will have an unpredictable impact on the "Kaifeng Prefecture Pilot"!
