Chapter 60: Old Knowledge

"Is this the government district?"

Standing in the government affairs area, Zhao Mengfu looked at the various signs in front of him, and he couldn't figure out the situation.

Compared with Lin'an, the government district in front of you is obviously much smaller, and because there are many institutions crammed into an area of only 280,000 square meters, you can see that there are often people walking briskly on the road, and if you are not careful, you may be bumped into.

"But where is the Council, and where should I go?"

Zhao Mengfu looked at the intricate road in front of him and felt hesitant for a while.

No wonder he's so troubled.

After all, since the Chifeng Army entered Chang'an, because there were too many things to deal with, the former political hall was miserable and had to be continuously expanded to accommodate more personnel to work.

After many reforms, the former government hall has been changed into the current government affairs yuan, which focuses on the handling of internal affairs.

The General Staff has also been upgraded to the Ministry of Defense, located directly in a remote area outside the city, and an army has been deployed around it to prevent others from snooping.

Even the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which was used to monitor the hundred officials, and the council chamber, which was specially used to hold meetings for the clergy of the Chinese Sect and designate the provisions of the law, were moved out of another place.

In this way, we can ensure that the Red Phoenix Army is in order, and will not delay things because of each other's containment.

But because of this, many signs have not been replaced, and it is most likely to confuse people.

"Based on the map above, I should go this way. ”

Looking at the map in his hand, Zhao Mengfu pondered for a moment, and then walked briskly towards a small path next to him.

And when he just crossed the intersection, he saw a person next to him, and the two immediately collided with each other when he was caught off guard.

"How are you?"

Zhao Mengfu was not as unruly as Cao Fu, and seeing that he had hit someone, he hurriedly got up and asked about the other party's situation.

The man shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It's nothing, I left too quickly." As he spoke, he picked up the books that were scattered in his hand.

Zhao Mengfu was ashamed in his heart, and also helped pick up all those books, and glanced at them again in curiosity.

The Relationship between the Hundred Schools of Thought and the Region of the Pre-Qin Princes. 》

On the Similarities and Differences between the Five Classics of the Pre-Qin and Han Dynasties

Tracing the Deletions, Additions, and Causes of the Five Classics

......

As soon as the book came into his eyes, Zhao Mengfu suddenly felt strange, and for some reason, he was a little scared.

"Hmm, look at you, do you want to see it?" the man asked, looking up and smiling.

Zhao Mengfu hurriedly waved his hand: "No, it's just a little curious." Although he didn't understand the content, he vaguely felt that if he read the content, he was afraid that he would collapse completely.

"I see?" the man was disappointed.

Zhao Mengfu fixed his eyes, but felt that the person in front of him was a little familiar, swept the book in the other party's arms, and suddenly realized: "You are Su Yun?"

"Do you recognize me?" Su Yun was a little surprised.

Zhao Mengfu replied: "Of course, after all, I can see it clearly when you strongly recommended the Holy Lord and expelled Ding Daquan back then. After looking at it, he sighed again: "It's just that six years have passed, but I didn't expect to see you here today." ”

"Oh? So you'reβ€”"

Su Yun looked confused, so she searched the person in her mind, but she never found any trace of the other party's identity.

Zhao Mengfu shook his head and said with a smile: "I was still young at the time, how can you know each other?"

Six years ago, he had just reached the first place, and his reputation in Lin'an was not obvious, far less than the six gentlemen at that time.

"That's right. Su Yun smiled and said.

Since then, he has also been disheartened by the imperial court, otherwise how would he have run into Chang'an?

Then, Su Yun was curious again and asked, "Listening to your tone, you should be a person from Lin'an, but how did you come to Chang'an?"

"Well, something happened to my family, so I came here. Zhao Mengfu said vaguely, not intending to reveal his identity.

Su Yun nodded in understanding.

Zhao Mengfu remembered what happened to him today, and asked again: "By the way, do you know where Xiao Jingmao is? I have been looking here for a long time, but I have never found him!"

"So you're going to look for him, but at this time, he usually doesn't go to the government affairs center, he usually reads in the library, and I happen to be going there too, why don't we go together?" Su Yun invited with a smile.

Zhao Mengfu was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly nodded and thanked: "Then trouble Mr. Su!"

Knowing the target, the two immediately walked hand in hand, and soon came to the library.

Seeing the resting person, Zhao Mengfu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and waved his hand at Su Yun, and thanked: "Thank you, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know how far I would go." ”

"It's not a big deal to just help. Su Yun replied, but there were many doubts in her heart, and she secretly thought: "It's just that this person is looking for Premier Xiao, what's the matter?"

Puzzled, he shook his head and put the matter aside, after all, his work was not yet completed, and he didn't have the energy to worry about other things.

Zhao Mengfu didn't pay much attention to it, and walked quickly in front of Xiao Jingmao.

At this moment, Xiao Jingmao was staring at the book in his hand with an obsessive face, and he didn't notice the person next to him.

Zhao Mengfu glanced sideways, but saw that on the paper, there were four big characters of "Zizhi Tongjian", and Xiao Jingmao was relish and kept reading.

In desperation, Zhao Mengfu had no choice but to be bold and shouted: "Premier Xiao!"

"What's the matter?"

Xiao Jingmao replied, his eyes always falling on the book in his hand.

Zhao Mengfu smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Jingmao, don't you remember me?"

"So it's you, what's the matter with you?" Xiao Jingmao looked away at this time, only then did he notice Zhao Mengfu next to him.

Seeing that the other party wanted to talk about it, he thought about it for a while, and then knew the other party's intention, and complained: "It's not convenient to talk here, let's go out and talk about it." ”

"That's good!"

Zhao Mengfu's eyes lit up, thinking that he had some hope, and left the library with Xiao Jingmao.

The two of them walked through the garden, and only when they found a stone pavilion with no one in the garden, did they sit down.

After sitting down, Zhao Mengfu couldn't bear it anymore, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Xiao, you also know that I have been here for half a year. But the marriage was never done. You say, shouldn't you urge King Jin to complete this?"

Last night, he was reprimanded by Cao Fu for a while, and he was already full of doubts about this matter, otherwise why did he leave the Horse Mansion early this morning and come to the government office to inquire?

Xiao Jingmao shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It's not like I haven't urged. But the lord said that the war on the front line is tight and I can't come back in a short time, so let me put this matter down for the time being!"

"But hasn't the Yan Yanlu already been captured? Why do you continue to fight?" Zhao Mengfu only felt his heart skip a beat and became nervous.

Xiao Jingmao shook his head, pretended to be annoyed, and replied: "Alas, it's not that those Mongolian troops have always avoided the battle, so that although we captured Yan'an Mansion, we did not completely annihilate the opponent's army. If we leave just now, then Yan Yanlu will be captured by the other side again. In this case, wouldn't the Northern Expedition be a waste of effort?"
