Zhao Xu's victory returned, which aroused the undercurrents inside and outside Kaifeng City.

Some hidden contradictions were quietly torn apart.

Li Qingchen could see that Zhang and Cai had different attitudes towards Empress Meng, so he raised his hand, left the Qingtiao House, and requested to enter Renming Hall in Funing Hall.

Li Qingchen walked into Renming Palace and looked at the familiar and unfamiliar place. He didn't remember what he had been here.

Looking up, Empress Meng sat upright, with her lower abdomen bulging, and she has been watching him since he came in.

Li Qingchen had no personal grudge against Empress Meng and politely said, "I will meet the Empress."

Empress Meng looked at Li Qingchen and knew that he was a die-hard supporter of Zhang Dun. She said directly: "Shu Li, whether it is etiquette or human favor, as the empress of the dynasty, it is essential for me to go to take over the palace. Will Mr. Zhang exclude this palace? I heard that the Ministry of Rites is formulating etiquette and law about the royal family, which is specifically for me?"

Li Qingchen looked as usual and raised his hand and said, "Empress, the government affairs hall does not know how to do it, and we cannot exclude it. No one has ever mentioned this matter to the lower officials. I don't know where the empress heard it, and the lower officials need to verify it. The official once repeatedly emphasized that our Song Dynasty must govern the country with etiquette and law, curb external interference, and seek justice. I would like to rest assured that the Ministry of Rites will never give in to anyone who violates etiquette and law."

Empress Meng looked slightly stunned. Is Li Qingchen's words true?

Empress Meng couldn't guess what he or they were thinking, so she sat upright and said, "I haven't seen the welcome list yet."

Li Qingchen bowed and said, "I have just met Zhang and Cai, the two ministers, and asked me. The two ministers said that the list has not been finalized yet, and I asked me to ask the Empress, is there anyone who needs to join in specially?"

Empress Meng became more and more confused. What are the ideas Zhang Dun and others are making?

No matter what their ideas they made, Empress Meng would not give in!

She touched her lower abdomen with both hands, nodded slightly, and said, "The Ministry of Rites should be responsible for this matter. Now I order the Qing family to be fully responsible. Report to this palace. Will the Qing family have any difficulties?"

Seeing that Empress Meng had concealed it, Li Qingchen pondered for a moment and said, "There is no difficulty for me. The specific ritual and list will be presented within three days. Empress, when I came, I met the Zongzheng Li Hanfeng. I wonder if Empress wants to add a member of the royal family?"

Seeing that Li Qingchen had made a 'huge concession', Empress Meng pursed her lips and smiled: "Some clans came here, and I will consider adding a few people appropriately. For the specific ones, the Qing family will decide."

Seeing that Empress Meng did not force her, Li Qingchen felt relieved and said, "Yes."

After Li Qingchen finished speaking, Empress Meng didn't know what to say. He had no experience in dealing with foreign ministers, and was even less good at spending time.

Li Qingchen and Empress Meng are clearly divided into "hostile camps" and belong to "no speculation", so they didn't speak anymore.

After a while of silence, Empress Meng took the initiative to speak: "Your family, are there any other things to report?"

Li Qingchen was not embarrassed, he looked restrained and said calmly, "No."

Faced with these old people in the officialdom, Empress Meng was obviously still a little tender, moved a little restrainedly, and said, "Then, let's go and do your business."

"I'm asking for my retreat." Li Qingchen raised his hand without any haste. After saying that, he took a step back two steps and turned around and left.

From beginning to end, etiquette is tightly grasped.

Empress Meng watched him until she left, and then she quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

If Li Qingchen showed off his plausible etiquette to refute her, she would be powerless and could only be trapped in Renming Palace.

Fortunately, these people still have a bottom line or are concerned about the government and do not do anything randomly.

Queen Meng looked down at her lower abdomen. She had been seven months old and would be born soon.

‘It’s okay, your father will protect us…’ Queen Meng whispered to herself in her heart.

Li Qingchen left Renming Hall and returned to Qingwa House, but did not see Zhang Dun and Cai Bian. They were about to leave, Meng Tang, who had just been transferred, ran into him with a hurried look on his face.

"The villain hit Li Shangshu, please forgive me!" Meng Tang quickly raised his hand and bowed, anxious and panicked.

His sister is the queen, and he is the national uncle. The complicated dynasty since the Shenzong Dynasty drove him, the national uncle into the abyss, was not even as good as an ordinary scholar.

Li Qingchen knew Meng Tang and frowned and said, "What's so panicked?"

Meng Tang bowed and said without hiding it: "Return to the Secretary of Shangshu Li, it is a joint memorial on Jiangnan West Road. Six prefectures and twelve magistrates impeached the governor He Yi, acted rampantly, bullied subordinates, suppressed gentry, and abused the law."

Li Qingchen's expression changed immediately.

He Yi was recommended by him. He was a Jinshi from the beginning of Yuanfeng in the Shenzong Dynasty and a firm reformist school!

Six prefectures and twelve prefects, such a weight is really great!

Not to mention the authenticity of the content, this memorial alone shows that He Yi was in a very bad situation on Jiangnan West Road in the past, now, or in the future, and it was even more difficult to gain a foothold in the future!

‘What about the others? This may be just the beginning!’

Li Qingchen's face gradually became cold. It was less than half a year since the governors from all walks of life took office, and various places have begun to attack blatantly!

Li Qingchen looked at Meng Tang again and said, "The two husbands are not here, wait."

"Yes." Meng Tang didn't dare to offend Li Qingchen, who is likely to be the chief examiner of Enke next year!

Li Qingchen left, and he still has a lot to do. He Yi's work can only be left to the two husbands of the Zhengshi Hall to find a way.

When the wind and clouds were rising in Kaifeng City, Zhao Xu was still on the way back to Beijing.

Because the weather is too hot and I walk very slowly, Zhao Xu often inspects various troops while resting, accompanied by Guo Cheng and Zhong Jianzhong, and eats and drinks with the soldiers, discussing various things.

At night, the breeze is swaying, and the moon is sparse.

All of them sat next to Zhao Xu and whispered: "The official family is not a villain's boast. The lady in Kaifeng City is really not as good as Jiangnan. In the years when the villain was in Jiangnan, he was moist and moist...moist..."

The soldiers around all showed a smile that understood, and some couldn't help but laugh.

Zhao Xu was also a person who had been to brothels, but he had never played with them. He was curious, but he was the official family of the Song Dynasty. He held back and said, "Why did I hear them say that you are still the same place..."

Dutou, who was in his early thirties, suddenly turned red and said, "Officials, don't listen to their nonsense. I, Lao Hu, are in Jiangnan, are a famous and romantic talented man, and have written poems..."

"Hahaha……"

A group of people burst into laughter.

"Take it out, take it out, let the official see what you wrote!?"

"Your way of calling it poetry. My son is better than you. He is five years old this year, hahaha..."

"Stop bragging, be careful that the official family will punish you..."

Lao Hu's face turned redder and he glanced at Zhao Xu quietly, but did not dare to continue speaking.

These are old brothers who have been in the army for many years. They know the roots and the bottom line, and it is really difficult to continue.

At this time, Chen Pi walked over quickly and handed it to Zhao Xu with a memorial.

Zhao Xu reached out and took it and looked at it. At this time, the governor of Jiangnan West Road, He Yi's resignation and memorial was submitted.

He said, "I am old and weak, and I am unable to bear the heavy responsibility. If I suffer any losses, I will ask my bones to return."

Zhao Xu looked at it, suddenly looked up at Chen Pi and said, "I remember this He Yi, I'm not even fifty yet?"

Chenpi bowed and said, "It's fifty-one."

Zhao Xu said oh, with a strange smile on his face.
Chapter completed!
