By May of the third year of the Republic, the population of Lin'an had recovered to about 400,000, and more than 200 Mongol spies had been captured among the 400,000 people.

Li Tingzhi was not soft on killing Song traitors by himself, but when Zhu Huan's wife ran to Li Tingzhi's house to plead with Li Tingzhi's wife, he found that he found some signs of softening in his heart in addition to anger. This time, the Privy Council was the hardest hit area, and a total of nearly 40 people were arrested. Although there are 20 of them who were arrested for embezzling public funds from the Privy Council, it also means that there are nearly 20 Song traitors. These Song traitors are basically officers who guard Yangzhou with Li Tingzhi.

After Li Tingzhi's wife finally sent Zhu Huan's wife away, she sighed: "Official, but I don't know what the Taiwei will do with Zhu Huan's family?" ”

Li Tingzhi snorted but did not speak. When he saw Zhu Huan's wife, he remembered Zhu Huan as such a disgusting Song traitor, and of course Li Tingzhi felt that he had to deal with it ruthlessly. There are still some things that Li Tingzhi doesn't want to say, the 'Yangzhou department' headed by Li Tingzhi in the Privy Council once had a great right to speak, and in an instant, only Li Tingzhi was left as a privy deputy envoy and three or two kittens from Yangzhou. When these two or three guys saw that the situation was so critical, they were even more silent, for fear that they would cause trouble after saying the wrong thing.

Seeing Li Tingzhi like this, his wife didn't dare to say anything more. Even the female streamers know that they are now in an era of fierce war, and it is impossible to have the slightest tolerance for the inner ghosts. At this moment, Li Tingzhi spoke, "Last time the Queen Mother said, I want to get together with you in ten days?" ”

"Oh......," Mrs. Li thought for a moment before she remembered, and she smiled, "This happened suddenly recently, and I forgot about it." Official, what kind of gifts do you want to bring? ”

"Gift-giving is naturally something that is not available in the palace now. Isn't the situation in the palace you said last time very bad? Li Tingzhi replied.

"You can send some silk and spice utensils, the cheap queen mother can't look down on it, and we can't afford the expensive ones." Mrs. Lee replied. She said this on her lips, but what she wanted to say in her heart was that this kind of unilateral gift giving was really painful. Seeing the situation of the Queen Mother, Mrs. Li felt that such a weak existence was actually of little value.

"Then send some calligraphy and paintings. Even if it's not a famous product, at least it needs to be decorated. Li Tingzhi put forward his own opinion. This suggestion is also for the purpose of saving money, in such a walled imperial city, even if it is not famous, as long as it looks passable, it can be regarded as a very useful decoration.

Mrs. Li felt reasonable, so she said that she was going to organize the wives to meet the Queen Mother again. It is indeed more difficult for women to organize wars. In this kind of door-to-door business, women are actually very organized.

When the Queen Mother met with the wives, Liu Meng got the news. In his heart, he had to admit that the person who promoted this matter did touch a more sensitive issue. If Empress Dowager Yang hadn't appeared, she would have no sense of existence and would just be a woman. However, after all, the Queen Mother is a national symbol to some extent, and once she begins to have a sense of existence, someone will intentionally or unintentionally come to this woman with theoretical power.

Not to mention that the Empress Dowager Gao of the Northern Song Dynasty colluded with Sima Guang to intensify the party and government from normalcy to complete confrontation. It can be seen from the example of Han Yanxuan that the Queen Mother has a lot of power. If someone colludes with Empress Dowager Yang to kill Zhao Jiaren, then he may become the new prime minister.

Of course, this is just imagination. It is not easy to kill Zhao Jiaren, and even if he succeeds, how will Zhao Jiaren's subordinates, who control most of the current army of the Great Song Dynasty, choose? At least Empress Dowager Yang and the mastermind are going to be destroyed. But as long as he thought of the possibility of Zhao Jiaren's death, Liu Meng felt shaken and fell into a panic.

It's useless to panic alone, and there are not many reasons to want to completely put Empress Dowager Yang under house arrest. After thinking about it, Liu Meng suddenly had an idea. He ordered a list of the wives of officials who had visited the Queen Mother twice. After getting it, Liu Meng saw that it did not indicate which family they were from, so he asked the office staff to make up for it. After a little busyness, the information was finally in place. Liu Meng saw Zhu Huan's wife with the key sign on it at a glance.

Liu Meng breathed a sigh of relief, he ordered someone to contact Zhang Shijie, and asked Zhang Shijie to temporarily suspend this kind of visit on the grounds that the current situation was complicated and the safety of the Queen Mother was the main reason. In addition to this method, Liu Meng also wrote a letter to Zhao Jiaren, explaining the matter to Zhao Jiaren clearly, Liu Meng believed in the letter that the situation in Lin'an has been stabilized, and this kind of thing that shows peace is really difficult to stop.

Zhao Jiaren knew that this kind of thing was difficult to stop, if the Queen Mother didn't want to increase the income in the palace, he actually didn't care at all about letting the Queen Mother distract herself by meeting people. According to the old system, the annual consumption of the palace alone can feed tens of thousands of troops, and with these troops, of course, they must fight on the front line, not to stand guard in the imperial city.

But at this stage, Zhao Jiaren still feels that there is no way to publicize it to the outside world, because the people tend to think that the queen mother should live a life of clothes and food to open her mouth.

Putting this issue aside for a moment, Zhao Jiaren decided to finish what he was capable of first. Liu Meng's letter informed him that the Song traitors had been arrested, and the Privy Council's battle plan had been taken away by the spies. It can be seen that they attach great importance to this battle plan. That's the good news. It's good to have the enemy get a battle plan that doesn't actually work.

Another piece of news is the question of how to deal with Song traitors. Among the captured spies were not Mongols, they were all Song people. This not only involves more than 200 families, but many people are beginning to wonder if more than 200 families will be involved. Zhao Jiaren instructed, 'If the immediate family members of more than 200 families work in the state system, they will be temporarily suspended. If not, there is no need for suspension. As for their families, don't strike them for the time being. Wait for the command. ’

When it comes to Song traitors, when they are angry, they want to kill the three or even nine clans of Song traitors, which is an easy mentality. However, this is not the case when it was implemented, Fan Tianshun, the nephew of the Great Song Dynasty traitor Fan Wenhu, fought bravely as the defender of Fancheng, and committed suicide and martyrdom when the city was broken. Needless to say, the nine clans, just the three clans can be connected to Fan Tianshun. But is that appropriate?

With Zhao Jiaren himself in power, he found that many impulses for justice, if they were really put into action, would lead to results that had nothing to do with their original intentions. In modern law, the method of only punishing the offender and not engaging in joint action is indeed quite reasonable. Of course, Zhao Jiaren believes that the families of corrupt officials also reap a lot of benefits from it, and the problem of this benefit-sharing should not be let go because they are not directly involved.

Thinking about these, Zhao Jiaren decided to take it to the meeting of the society to discuss it with everyone. After all, Zhao Jiaren is a minority, and only with the support of the members of the society can he really solve the problem. Now there is a good opportunity, and the land state ownership system in Songjiang Prefecture has basically entered the stage of actual operation. A large number of members of the society have gathered in Songjiang Province to participate in the work, and they will soon bring their practical work experience to other areas to promote land nationalization.

The meeting was also in the final stage at this time, Wen Tianxiang was the prefect of Songjiang Prefecture, and the subsequent operations had to be handed over to him, so Wen Tianxiang had to speak.

"I'll wait for all parties to ......" As soon as Wen Tianxiang spoke, Zhao Jiaren couldn't help frowning. Maybe it was because he saw Zhao Jiaren's expression, or maybe he really had an idea. Lu Xiufu, the current deputy of cotton affairs, interrupted Wen Tianxiang's speech, "Wen Zhifu, our society doesn't talk about this kind of shepherd. We eat the people's and use the people's, but we still keep the shepherd, and the people will not be happy when they hear this. ”

This is very much in line with Zhao Jiaren's appetite, Songjiang Mansion is not big, and the members of the society are the people who Zhao Jiaren agrees with the officials, and they gather this group of people to do it in person, although the work is hard, but it is really implemented. And in these practices, Zhao Jiaren understands many things that he didn't understand before.

And Wen Tianxiang's personality is quite open-minded, although he is said so, Zhang Shijie is right. He just smiled and changed the word, "I'm waiting for the official ......"

Zhao Jiaren's face is not very good-looking. As long as you have the mentality of being an official, you must follow the rules of being an official. As for this rule, Zhao Jiaren can only say 'hehe'. It's not that the bureaucracy is an evil system, but that Zhao Jiaren has seen more effective systems and models.

Wen Tianxiang saw Zhao Jiaren's expression, he simply stopped speaking, took out a small book from his pocket and looked at it twice, and then continued: "I'll wait here to work......"

This word is in line with Zhao Taiwei's thoughts. It also made Taiwei Zhao suddenly have a new idea in his heart. If only the Empress Dowager Yang in Lin'an really understood that she, the Empress Dowager, was a job and wanted to serve everyone. But Zhao Jiaren thinks that Empress Dowager Yang probably thinks that because she is fertile and has a child with Song Duzong, she can call herself the Empress Dowager with great arrogance, and thinks that the whole world has to support her. Anyway, Zhao Jiaren doesn't agree with such a truth.

was thinking about such a question, so I listened to Wen Tianxiang continue to speak very smoothly. 'The state ownership of land is not about dividing land equally, but about effectively investing more labor in agriculture, so as to reduce labor intensity and improve labor efficiency......

This topic brought Zhao Jiaren's attention back to the meeting. What Wen Tianxiang said is Zhao Jiaren's new cognition
