At the same time, Zhao Xu also received a letter, which was different from the one received by the Empress Dowager Gao, and Yang Huairen's other letter was bright and dark, saying different things.

Mingli's letter is a series of matters that Yang Huairen reported to the imperial court about his public mansion in Tongyuan County.

For example, he asked the imperial court to allow him to appoint a number of officials in the palace on his own, and asked the official family to appoint him with government soldiers, and the quota of 200 guards sent by him in the palace was arranged by himself.

It's a very ordinary recital, and the words in the recital are sincere, a bit of a formality. In fact, it was Yang Huairen who showed the court that he understood that the so-called opening of the palace was just a nominal compliment to him, and as for the real power, he returned it to the court.

It was a common practice in the Song Dynasty to appoint civil officials of the Tongyuan County Government on their own, and there was no actual power to appoint them anyway, and all the court had to do was issue official certificates, and there was almost no cost, so there was no reason to refuse.

As for the army appointed by the emperor as the government soldiers of the Tongyuan County Mansion, it was also nominal, and Zhao Xu handed it over to the Privy Council and let the two prime ministers deal with it.

In the end, the matter of the guards in the 200-person mansion was just that the original Yang family's guard was changed to a suit and renamed the county palace guards, and the quota of 200 people was also within the acceptance range of the imperial court, so there was no problem.

It's just that at the end of this twist, Yang Huairen said that he would buy land near his Zhuangzi, build a new kitchen college, and teach more cooks, which in the eyes of several ministers of the imperial court, felt a bit ridiculous.

In the eyes of some people, Yang Huairen's status is still thinking about passing on his cooking skills, is it a bit of a sacrifice.

In their minds, they still respect the teachings of the sage, "a gentleman is far away from cooking", and a scholar who always thinks about cooking is not only not a good reader, but also not a person with a good reputation.

Some people also feel that Yang Huairen's thoughts and actions are actually understandable.

People in this world, especially readers, everyone has their own hobbies, some people love calligraphy and painting, some people love piano and chess, everyone has their own good, Yang Huairen likes to cook and cook, and now he wants to inherit and absorb his skills, there is nothing to slander.

There are also people who have unique opinions on this. They think that Yang Huairen has made great achievements in resisting foreign enemies, but the emperor's reward is too rich.

Coupled with the matter of overthrowing King Pu, although all the officials and ministers felt that Zhao Zonghui colluded with foreign clans and deserved such a fate, but in this process, Yang Huairen's actions were too intense.

Such a stunned and rampaging character will inevitably offend people, or be looked down upon by many people, if he does not know how to restrain at this time, and from then on he will become arrogant and domineering, he will naturally become a thorn in the side of some people, and hate has to be unpleasant.

Yang Huairen knows that whether the water in the court is deep, or whether he has received someone's guidance, when he is in the limelight, he knows how to hide and show his clumsiness, and he can be regarded as self-aware.

And he wrote that he was going to open a kitchen academy, which to a certain extent could give a false impression to those who were not used to him, or who were worried that their position was threatened, and he had no ambition to compete for a place in the court.

Yang Huairen's behavior will have different understandings in different people's hearts. But no matter how they understand it, although Yang Huairen's nonsensical ideas are not understood by them, they are easily accepted by them.

So if Yang Huairen wants to open a cooking school, let him open it, as long as he doesn't toss around in the court and fight for power and profit, he likes to open whatever school he likes.

After Zhao Xu read it, he read Yang Huairen's secret meaning from this clear message.

A few days ago, I told him the idea of renovating armaments, but I didn't expect Yang Huairen to come up with such an idea.

Zhao Xu seems to have read something else from this twist. He wanted to reform the military and change the status quo of the weak armament of the Great Song Dynasty, but due to his ability and power, Zhao Xu only had a preliminary idea, and did not have any detailed plans and feasible methods to take action.

Yang Huairen wanted to open a cooking school, and he specifically mentioned this point in a note to thank the emperor for his kindness and return to the opening of the mansion, which was definitely not his hot-headed impulse.

So the purpose of opening this cooking school is a bit self-evident in Zhao Xu's heart.

In connection with Yang Huairen's words about the war in Huanzhou, which greatly admired the ability of Yang Shihu, the general of the border army, to train troops and command the army to fight, Zhao Xu seemed to understand a little, Yang Huairen wanted to start from the innovation of the training method of the grassroots army.

This starting point seems very small, but Zhao Xu understands that if the starting point of reform is too big at the beginning, it will inevitably touch the interests of many people, and if that happens, the reform will inevitably encounter great resistance.

Instead, starting from a seemingly small starting point, there is very little resistance, and if you hang a brand of a culinary academy like Yang Huairen, who sells dog meat on the head of a sheep, he may not even be resisted.

If there is a different emperor, maybe for Yang Huairen's thoughts, he will feel that it is a petty fight and cannot be seen by the law. But in Zhao Xu's heart, it was exactly what he wanted.

Looking at different problems in a special position and in a special environment will naturally lead to different results.

Zhao Xu has not yet recovered the imperial power from the Empress Dowager Gao, even if he has any grand intentions and ideas, and if he goes down to the holy decree, those civil and military ministers may not carry it out as a real holy decree.

At best, it is only after the nod of his grandmother, the Empress Dowager Gao, that his will can take effect, otherwise, the people below will only disobey the yang and the yin and show him.

And Yang Huairen's plan just met Zhao Xu's psychological needs.

Zhao Xu, as the emperor, supported a county prince who had no real power and liked not to do his job properly to open an academy to cultivate chef talents, and naturally no one would object.

Zhao Xu even felt that this was a good start for him, and in the delicate relationship between him and his grandmother, there was a courtier like Yang Huairen, who was favored on both sides, who could do things for him, and it was really gratifying for him to do things in his heart.

Therefore, Zhao Xu was very supportive of Yang Huairen's idea of opening a kitchen academy, and in a good mood, he immediately called the chamberlain, laid paper on the table and grinded, and wrote four big words - "Kitchen Academy". Reading, a better reading experience.
