As the emperor's health fully recovered, the border of Shaanxi became more and more unstable, and the ministers of Shaanxi and the central government wrote to say that the affairs of Shaanxi must be abandoned by Li Bu, and asked the emperor to send Li Buqi to proclaim Shaanxi. The emperor had no choice, and also asked Li Buqi about his intentions, but Li Buqi wanted to resign and serve his parents at home on the grounds that he had been stationed in Guangnan for five years and had not fulfilled his filial piety, and also recommended Guo Kui, Jingtai and others.

In the Great Song Dynasty, filial piety was greater than heaven, and there were often officials who asked to change their positions on the grounds of serving their parents, so there was no problem with Li not giving up this request. Even the emperor was embarrassed, Li Buqi didn't give up but didn't say a word and went to Guangnan, he was less than thirty years old, and he didn't even have a woman around him for more than four years.

In the past, Li Bu went to Hebei and Guangnan without saying a word, and went to the ground without saying a word, but this time, the abnormal push and obstruction inevitably made some people who were full of worries think too much. Li Buqi also insisted on not going to Shaanxi, and some people became more anxious, and in the end, it was the privy deputy Han Qi who proposed that Li Buqi take his family to Shaanxi to take up his post. This is definitely a serious violation of the ancestral system of the Great Song Dynasty, but the prime minister and others actually agreed, and they packed tickets for Li Bu's character. A few officials who jumped out couldn't make it to the climate, and in the end, the emperor really made an exception for Li Buqi to move the whole family to Jingzhao Mansion.

After satisfying the requirement to take his family members to take office, Li Buqi made every inch of progress and wrote a thick book of proclamations, calling for the implementation of a local budget system and a system of sharing taxes between the local government and the imperial court in Shaanxi, and also demanded that the Shaanxi army have unified command, run a militia, reward industry and commerce, and emigrate from mountainous areas; and most excessively, demanded that all areas west of the Yellow River, which originally belonged to the Hedong Road, be assigned to the Yongxing Military Road in Shaanxi. He made so many requests, in the eyes of others, it was obvious that he didn't want to go to Shaanxi. But so many people are in a hurry to kick him to Shaanxi, where can they help him?

The budget system and the tax sharing system between the local government and the imperial court have been initially promoted in Guangnan, showing a positive role in promoting local economic development, so although Zhao Zhen had some doubts, he still agreed under the persuasion of Wen Yanbo and others.

Because the officials of the Great Song Dynasty were worried that someone would rebel, the most taboo was the unified command of the army, but many people had already raised this issue - such as Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu, and Ming Hao - It has long been a cliché, and Li Buqi's proposal was not abrupt, but it was just the first of the Great Song courtiers who dared to give him power. However, this can also be explained by the fact that Li Buqi was afraid that something would go wrong and damage the reputation of the famous general, so most of the important ministers in the court were inclined to support Li Buqi's request. However, this can be regarded as a major change to the ancestral system of the Great Song Dynasty, so it is certain that it will be argued in the court for a while.

At this moment, the third prince Zhao Sheng suddenly appeared in this chapter, which shocked the entire imperial court. In this chapter, Zhao Sheng not only asked to share his father's worries and go to Shaanxi to guard the frontier, but also proposed that the Zhao family clan should not enjoy the high officials without doing anything, and should let the Zhao family clan come out to do things and support themselves, so as to give full play to the talents of the descendants of the Zhao family and reduce the pressure on the people.

This piece of music really stirred up a thousand waves with one stone, and as Li Buqi expected, the imperial court was divided into two completely opposite factions.

Before Qingli, the reform of the "redundant officials, redundant soldiers, and redundant expenses" that devoured the finances of the Great Song Dynasty became the expectation of the public, but for the "redundant officials", in fact, the children and grandchildren of the Zhao family who were raised in the courtyard of the deep house accounted for the majority. These people have no contribution to the country, but everyone has a big official title on their heads, and one person's fortune is more than a few dozen ordinary officials. It's just that this matter involves the royal family, even Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu don't dare to say it explicitly, they can only be called "redundant officials" in general.

Everyone did not dare to mention this matter, and the emperor did not dare to touch it for fear of bearing a bad reputation, and there was no possibility of solving this matter. But now that the third prince has actually put it forward, those old foxes in the court naturally see that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to solve the problem, how can those people of insight who want to solve the problem of "redundant officials" let go of this opportunity? Immediately, there were many recitals that echoed Zhao Sheng, including Fu Bi, Pang Ji, Sima Guang and others.

There are also many people who oppose Zhao Sheng's proposal, such as Wen Yanbo and Han Qi. Li Buqi heard that Fu Bi privately questioned Han Qi why he opposed Zhao Sheng's proposal, and Han Qi said that if he supported the Zhao family clan to come out and do things, then there was no reason not to let Zhao Sheng be an official and take power. The implication is that this is the achievement of Zhao Sheng.

Yes, in the eyes of the people, Zhao Sheng invited himself to go to Shaanxi at this critical moment to share his father's worries, first occupied the title of "filial son", asked to reduce the burden of the people by himself, and had the reputation of "virtuous", Zhao Sheng's reputation was initially established. If Zhao Sheng is allowed to establish some meritorious deeds with the help of Li Buqi, then his reputation will rise even more, Han Qi and their hype of the crisis in Shaanxi is not to move a stone to shoot themselves in the foot?

Zhao Sheng's recital finally gave the clan a chance to perform, and the royal family, who usually had no say in anything, could finally comment on their own affairs this time. Most people are in favor of cutting the suffix and letting them do things.

Unlike the women of later generations, who "would rather sit on the big bus and cry than sit on the back seat of the bicycle and smile", these Zhao prisoners who squatted in the splendid buildings all day long and sat in the well and watched the sky, regarded the dynasty as a release and the tomb sweeping as a travel welfare, and longed for freedom even more.

Li Buqi succeeded in disrupting the imperial court, and all the ministers joined the war group from their own public and selfish intentions, and the ministers of the two factions and a group of clans argued about Li Buqi and Zhao Sheng's demands in the court almost every day, and the quarrel could not be stopped for about a month, and the quarrel was so that even the emperor who had just recovered could not stand it.

In the end, it seemed that the need to kick Li Buqi out of the capital was more urgent, and Zhao Zhen actually agreed to Li Buqi's request for unified command of the Shaanxi army under the persuasion of Wen Yanbo and Han Qi, and the Hedong Road area demanded by Li Buqi was also assigned to Shaanxi. This is also the first time since Taizong succeeded to the throne that he concentrated one side of the army in the hands of a single commander.

The long-standing and difficult problem of army command was solved, and other problems were naturally not a problem, and in the end, Li Buqi got his wish. Li Buqi guessed that Wen Yanbo and the others were not unprepared to see him fall on his heels, because Shaanxi was different from Guangnan. Guangnan was smashed at that time, it was a blank piece of paper, Li Buqi could sketch it however he wanted, but Shaanxi was intertwined with forces in all aspects, even if Li Buqi nominally got unified command, he could not command all the troops like an arm, but no matter where Shaanxi lost, Li Buqi had to be responsible.

Therefore, Li Buqi was not idle during this time, and the start-up capital prepared by Fu'an Qianzhuang for Shaanxi has begun to secretly flow into Yanzhou, Fuzhou and Qinzhou. Zhang Kang of Yongxing Military Road, which belongs to Yanzhou, is an old acquaintance, and Pang of Qinfeng Road, which belongs to Qinzhou, owes Li Buqi a favor, so he will naturally take care of the property of the Fu'an Consortium. Fuzhou's folding family is the basic plate that Li does not give up, so he doesn't have to worry about it. Moreover, Qingyuan Academy has a large number of Shaanxi people studying over the years, and before the matter of Li Bu abandoning Shaanxi has been decided, many Shaanxi students from Qingyuan Academy have returned to Shaanxi to fight in the front station. Therefore, Li Buqi's forces in Shaanxi have already been mobilized.

After some bargaining with the emperor, it was already August, and even if he set off for Shaanxi now, he would not be able to play a role in the autumn when the activities of the Western Xia people were most rampant. But Li Buqi is still not ready to leave immediately, he is still waiting, one is waiting for the opening of the Bianliang Rugby League, and the other is waiting for the Royal Test Ground and Qingyuan Academy to complete the granular gunpowder.

To be honest, Li Buqi didn't expect that the Song people would be able to think of granulating gunpowder so quickly to solve the many shortcomings of gunpowder. However, a student of Qingyuan who opened a pharmacy at home probably had a deep study of Paste Pill Powder when he was a child, and after discovering the shortcomings of gunpowder that it is easy to absorb moisture and the components are easy to separate, he proposed to make granular gunpowder, and also achieved initial success. At this time, Li Buqi can build an all-firearms army in advance.
