At this time, Zhao Xu had already entered the household with Liang Tao, Yang Wei and others.

Liang Tao introduced the situation of the household department along the way, and the performance of this period of time was in and out of his words, especially the military salary on Huanqing Road had been collected half.

Zhao Xu listened, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "The important matter of the country is nothing more important than the stability of the frontier. Liang Shangshu and all the Qing families, you have worked hard. ”

Liang Tao and the others were pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly saluted, saying, "I don't dare to be appreciated by Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Xu walked in the household department, looking, this household department is very small and simple, he glanced at Liang Tao and the others behind him, and said in a cheerful tone: "I came today, one is to see the government affairs of the household department, the three divisions of the yamen are too disappointing to me, I hope that the household department can pick up the burden and don't let the government affairs be chaotic." The second is to recognize your family and let you see me. I have been on the throne for seven years, and I am afraid that not many people have seen me. I am the monarch and the minister of the Song Dynasty, and the government and government must rely more on the secretaries, so we will inevitably meet more in the future......"

Not to mention Liang Tao and Yang Wei, others are even more excited. There are really not many opportunities to see the emperor, but if you can see it often, the official position will inevitably be promoted!

A group of people seemed to understand Zhao Xu's words, and their breath suddenly became rapid.

Zhao Xu Yu Guang saw it, and suddenly said: "Yang Qingjia, you sued Lu Dafang and other corrupt courtiers for merit, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Fan was purely involved in the case and was imprisoned, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs are missing, and you temporarily act as the Ministry of Industry." ”

Yang Wei was overjoyed, hurriedly stepped forward, raised his hand and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

The group of people was still thinking about it just now, and when they saw Yang Wei being promoted again, their hearts were even more restless, and their faces turned red, as if they were waiting for Zhao Xu to call their names and give them a promotion.

Liang Tao was a little envious, he was a household secretary before, and now he is still, although he is temporarily acting as the third envoy, there is no actual promotion.

Zhao Xu continued to walk, Liang Tao became more and more respectful, and the group of people was cautious, and they were very expressive when they saw the stitches and needles.

Zhao Xu took a big turn in the household department, and before leaving, he said to Liang Tao: "The three divisions of the yamen have been sealed, and all the powers and positions are on the Liang Qing family, and the Qing family must provoke it, and they can't slack off." ”

Liang Tao seemed to understand, and said in a deep voice: "The minister understands." ”

Zhao Xu smiled, waved his hand, and turned to go to the ministry.

On the way, Tong Guan approached and said in a low voice: "Official, the arrangements are ready." ”

Zhao Xu nodded slightly, and led a large group of people to the ministry.

The servant of the ministry was trembling at this time, and when he saw Zhao Xu, he saluted and said, "Pan Heqi, the left servant of the minister's department, see Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Xu looked at a group of people and said, "What about the official book?" ”

Pan Heqi lowered his head, his face was a little pale, and said, "Back to Your Majesty, Shangshu is sick and has taken leave from the Political Affairs Hall." ”

Coincidentally, I got sick and took leave today. And, unless it was a serious illness, knowing that Zhao Xu was coming, he was still hiding.

Zhao Xu's face was expressionless, and he could guess in his heart. It's nothing more than that even if this official is not involved in Lu Dafang's case, he is also inclined to Lu Dafang, and he is deliberately hiding at this time.

Pan Heqi and the waiters behind him, as well as the outsiders, were all trembling and looking scared.

Shang Shu snubbed His Majesty, will Your Majesty be angry with them, or even kill one or two with a cane?

Tong Guan bowed to Zhao Xu's side, staring at a group of people in the ministry, his face was not good.

Zhao Xu looked at Pan Heqi and the others, and did not ask them to get up.

He was thinking about the affairs of the Ministry of Officials, although the Ministry of Officials was responsible for the selection of officials, but it was actually subordinate to Shangshu Province, which in turn was actually subordinate to the Political Affairs Hall, which was similar to the other five ministries, and its power and position were greatly encroached upon and compressed.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Xu glanced at Pan Heqi and said lightly: "Go to the military department." ”

Pan Heqi and the others changed their expressions greatly, raised their hands, and cold sweat was dripping on their heads.

Your Majesty, you are not satisfied with them, very dissatisfied!

Pan Heqi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhao Xu walking away, he wanted to say, 'Congratulations to Your Majesty', but he didn't say it. His face was pale, his eyes were anxious and angry, and there was nothing he could do!

The people who followed the onlookers all around, pointing to the officials and talking about it.

"Is this a deliberate attempt to embarrass His Majesty?"

"Definitely, I heard that the Ministry of Shangshu and Lu Dafang are relatives......

"Ah, so that's the case, these people in the Ministry of Officials, it's really bold......"

"Where is this boldness, it is clearly contempt for ......"

Pan Heqi listened, his heart was frightened, and he wanted to find a stone to hit him to death. The officials of the ministry, big and small, were even more frightened and trembling.

Zhao Xu came to the Ministry of War, but the Ministry of War was more 'dilapidated' than the Ministry of Officials, not only because of the dilapidated government office, but also because of the 'withering of officials'.

Only one member of the Wailang and a few small officials came to greet him, and the Wailang raised his hand nervously and said, "Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Ministers, Zhang Jiushan sees Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Xu looked at him, even more surprised, looked inside, and said, "You Shangshu, where is the waiter?" ”

Zhang Jiushan's expression moved, as if he was a little embarrassed, and said tremblingly: "Back to Your Majesty, they were all arrested." ”

Zhao Xu blinked and said, "I have read the case file, I remember that you are still in the book, and there is a squire who is not involved in the case." ”

The corners of Zhang Jiushan's mouth trembled, and after a while, he said, "Just now, they went to the Criminal Department to surrender themselves." ”

The corners of Zhao Xu's mouth twitched, he was afraid that he was frightened.

For a moment, he was speechless.

Tong Guan lowered his head and glanced at Nan Tianyou not far away. Nan Tianyou was stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask for guilt, and said: "The official family forgives the sin, and Weichen will send someone back to ask." ”

Zhao Xu waved his hand indifferently, he came to the military department, naturally not to walk.

The current military department is basically responsible for logistics affairs and the management of local troops, and the real power is very small, and it is basically divided by the Sanya and the Privy Council.

Zhao Xu was not interested in the 'three ya', in his heart, the army should be under the control of the military department, the Privy Council should be dispatched, and the power of division and coordination should be very appropriate.

And the military department, it is best to have a combination of one military and one literature, and the internal supervisor will mention the points to ensure that the military power is firmly in his hands!

Zhao Xu glanced at Tong Guan, then at Zhang Jiushan, and said, "I will assign you a new Shangshu soon, you take care of the military department first, don't mess up." ”

Seeing that Zhao Xu didn't pursue it, Zhang Jiushan still had a big drop of cold sweat on his face, and hurriedly said, "Weichen understands." ”

Before Zhao Xu left the palace, he didn't expect it to be so soon, seeing that the time was still early, he thought about it and said, "Go to the Ministry of Rites again, and take a walk around the Yushitai." ”

Inside and outside Kaifeng City, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at Zhao Xu's every move, desperately speculating about Zhao Xu's purpose for leaving the palace this time, and even waiting for his 'moth' with great vigilance.

The news quickly spread back to the political affairs hall, and Su Song's ears were there.

Su Song wrinkled his eyebrows and was silent.

Jiang Jing was a little worried, and said: "Xianggong, the wind outside the palace is changing rapidly, and they all say that Lu Dafang bullies the officials and their families are young, they abuse power and mess with government, and they are corrupt and illegal, and they should be punished heavily." Some people have seized the opportunity to coerce and wantonly incite, and there is a tendency to boil. ”

Su Song listened, but still didn't speak.

Jiang Jing glanced at his dark and dark side face, hesitated, and said in a low voice: "Xianggong, you said, did the official family leave the palace this time, did it happen on purpose, so as to do something to Lu Xianggong?" ”

Su Song wrinkled his brows, sighed, and said, "The official family has eased the tension with the outer court, and after today, at least half of the officials who oppose the trial of Lu Dafang and the others will change their words or remain silent." Once a son of heaven and a courtier......"

Jiang Jing was stunned and said, "Is this just a trip?" ”

Su Song didn't know what he was feeling in his heart, so he suddenly laughed again and said, "Yes." How many people in the outer court have seen the official family, and now they see that the official family is personable, polite and virtuous, and humble, not so violent and easy to kill as rumored, and they can't be approached. You say, what will they choose between the official family and a prison jaifu? ”
