"Noisy?"

Zhao Xu snorted, picked up the teacup, looked at Xu Jiang and Zhang Qi and said, "It's endless." ”

Xu Jiang and Zhang Qi bowed slightly and did not speak.

The two are not party members, but they tend to 'change the law', and they can still do something during the Xining period, and they have been suppressed since Yuanfeng. General Xu simply resigned and hid.

They all know the events of Xining and Yuanfeng, once Shenzong was in power, the struggle between the 'old and new' parties never stopped, and the bigwigs of the 'old and new' parties were all high and powerful, and their prestige covered the world, and no one could convince anyone, and no one could suppress anyone.

In the Shenzong Dynasty, Emperor Shenzong supported Wang Anshi; At the beginning of Yuan Youchu, Empress Dowager Gao supported Sima Guang; Now, Zhao Xu supports Zhang.

No matter who supports whom, the partisan struggle continues, boundless, and everywhere.

Zhao Xu took a sip of tea, looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "Someone said before that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes; It is also said that one monk carries water to eat, two monks carry water to eat, and three monks have no water to eat. You say, 'What should I do?' ”

Although Chen Pi deliberately lowered his voice, Xu Jiang and Zhang Ji sat very close to Zhao Xu, and the two could hear clearly.

Whether it is Zhao Xu or them, they can all hear that this 'mention of official business' is not exhausting nine times out of ten.

Xu Jiang thought about it and said: "The official family left Su Xianggong and Han Xianggong, just to balance the situation of the dynasty and resolve the party dispute...... Now it seems that it is unlikely. ”

Zhao Xu held the teacup and did not comment.

He insisted on leaving Su Song and Han Zongdao, not to balance the situation, but to fight for a buffer time, and not to force the 'old party' all at once.

When he completes the 'military reform' and the pilot project in Kaifeng Mansion ends, at that time, the two-year period agreed with Su Song will almost expire.

Zhang Kai has always tried his best to avoid the court dispute, and he still flipped through the official document on the 'military reform' in his hand.

Zhao Xu took another sip of tea, pondered in his heart, and said lightly: "Chen Pi, you go and send a message to Han Xianggong and Cao Fucheng, the 'Kaifeng Mansion Pilot' can't be delayed by anyone because of anything, for people who are fluctuating in people's hearts and can't do things, give them a place where they can do things with peace of mind, if there is no one in the whole Song Dynasty, invite them to go home and farm." By the way, where is Zhang Xianggong? ”

Chen Pi said: "Zhang Xianggong went to the ministry. ”

Zhao Xu snorted, and said expressionlessly: "My tolerance is limited, you tell Zhang Xianggong to go in person, if necessary, Xungui is not impossible to kill!" ”

Xu Jiang's face changed slightly, and he immediately fell silent.

He is the secretary of the military department, even if his attention is not in the court now, some things can't be hidden from him after all.

The honorable nobles, especially the top-level ones, do not have enough reasons to move easily, and the imperial court is now increasingly on the opposite side of the scholars, and if the Xungui group deviates from morality again, the imperial court is further isolated, and the consequences are really unimaginable.

Zhang Ji continued to flip through the official documents, as if he didn't hear them.

The tangerine peel has already responded and left quickly.

After Zhao Xu finished talking about this, he said, "Zhang Qing's family will go first, and if necessary, I will also go once." ”

General Xu looked stunned and said, "Is the official family going to the labor army?" ”

Zhao Xu shook his head and said, "I'm here to boost morale, and when necessary, I want to see their drills." ”

From the bottom of his heart, Zhao Xu wanted to hold a big military parade to boost the morale of the Song Dynasty and dispel the weak soldier atmosphere of 'harmony is precious'.

But Kaifeng City is too small, and there are no conditions for a military parade at all.

Speaking of this, Zhao Xu suddenly remembered the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, and his eyes flickered slightly.

It's not that Yanjing City is big and suitable for military parades. But the strategic location of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun is too important!

The Liao people or Jin people went south, generally there were two routes, one was that Yunzhou went south to Taiyuan and directly threatened Kaifeng; The other is that Youzhou directly crosses the Yellow River and enters Kaifeng City.

Youzhou is Yanjing, the Beijing of later generations!

It can be seen from this that the strategic location of the sixteen states of Youyun is important, whoever masters the sixteen states of Youyun will get the strategic initiative, and the other party can only be beaten passively!

Now, the Song Dynasty is in a situation of being passively beaten.

The Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun have always been the heart disease of the Great Song Dynasty, although it has been like giving up now, but in the hearts of many people, they still want to take it back.

Zhao Xu thought about it in his heart, but he could only hold back, his current priority was to change the weak national disease of the Great Song Dynasty, not the time for the Northern Expedition.

When Zhao Xu, Zhang Qi, and General Xu were discussing the 'military reform', Zhang Dian was discussing the follow-up of the 'donation' with Lin Xi in the Ministry of Officials.

Lin Xi waited for Zhang Dun to finish speaking, and his expressionless face showed a look of thought, and said: "What Xianggong means is that those who donate can get preferential treatment on issues such as sub-entry and other issues, and those who don't have it will be directly eliminated?" ”

Zhang Dian said: "The imperial court is planning to balance the scholars and the Han family from all aspects, not directly eliminating, but focusing on it. Some people can't move directly, but repression is necessary. ”

Lin Xi understood and said, "Xia Guan understands." ”

Lin Xi really understands, this is actually not as simple as 'balance'. They once had a meal with the official family, and the official family talked about the issue of 'support'.

The fundamental reason why the 'New Party' failed during the Xining period is that they are in the minority.

During the Yuan You period, why was the imperial court swept away and the 'new law' abolished, or because it was 'not recognized'.

Therefore, they need to cultivate 'like-minded' people, and they need to support new forces.

Only under the advantage of one can we occupy an advantage in numbers, so that the 'new party' can last for a long time, and the 'new law' will be difficult to repeat!

While the two were talking, a small official walked quickly to Lin Xi's room, knocked on the door, and said, "Shangshu, Kaifeng Mansion has something to report to the public." ”

Lin Xi glanced at Zhang Xuan and said, "Come in." ”

The little official pushed the door in, saluted, and said: "Zhang Xianggong, Kaifeng Mansion said that Kaifeng Mansion mentioned some official business, and was on duty in the room last night, and was already dead when he found it. In Kaifeng Mansion, many people asked for a postponement. ”

'Hold? ’

Zhang Dan's eyes suddenly widened, the bones and fingers of his right hand turned white, and he clutched the chair tightly.

Lin Xi waved his hand, and after waiting for the little official to retreat and close the door, he said, "Is it Qi Guogong who killed people and killed his mouth?" ”

Zhang Duan snorted coldly, his eyes were like a sword, and said, "He doesn't have the guts!" ”

Lin Xi understood when he heard this, Qi Guogong Qi Cheng no longer needed to kill people, and what he did was to add fuel to the fire. It's not Qi Cheng, it's people who have the same interests as Qi Cheng and want to protect themselves.

Lin Xi saw Zhang Dan's face full of anger, and said, "There's nothing to be angry about, have you seen less during the Xining period?" Their methods of yin and ghosts are much stronger than fighting in the ring in the court and restraining each other locally. ”

The 'new law' during the Xining period, even with the support of Emperor Shenzong, the opposition from top to bottom was no lower than that of the 'new party', and even Wang Anshi was slandered for nothing, which shows that other people and things are there.

Zhang Dian glanced at him and said, "I won't be as benevolent as Wang Xianggong!" ”

Zhang Dian stood up as he spoke, and as soon as he opened the door, he said in a deep voice: "Let the people from the Imperial City Division, the Criminal Department, and the Imperial History Terrace come to the Qingwa House to see me." ”

When the officials listened, their hearts suddenly chilled.

Zhang Xianggong, are you going to arrest people again?

The people brought by Zhang Dian responded and hurried to pass the word.

Zhang Dan's heart swelled with anger, and he left the ministry and went straight back to the green tile house.

Lin Xi sent Zhang Dun out of the door, and when he turned around, he found the person in charge of his room, and said: "Make some adjustments to the detailed rules of the Kaoquan Law, especially in terms of crime and punishment, and increase the punishment." Supervision should be further ......"

The director hurriedly responded and said, "Yes, the lower official will go and inform the two waiters." ”

As soon as Zhang Dian returned to the Qingwa house, he met Chen Pi, and after listening to Chen Pi's words, he sat in a rocking chair and waited for Cai You, Cai Jing, and Huang Lu.

In the blue-tiled room, there was a sudden surge of coldness, the wind was loud, Cai Bian was not there, and the other officials didn't even dare to breathe.
