It was almost time for dinner, and Prince Wang finally arrived at the Lihua Villa in Wuhaogu.

Wu Haogu, Pan Xiao'an and Gao Qiu went to the gate to greet him, and welcomed the Prince-Confucian, who had been busy for a day, into the middle hall.

After entering the house and finishing, Wang Shi looked at Wu Haogu and smiled and said, "Dalang, I have already agreed with Mr. Han, Mr. Zeng and Mr. Fan, and they have all been fooled by you! I will report to the official tomorrow to report the haunted ghosts in Dutingyi and the Liao envoys moving.

Tell me, what sin should you be? This is a deception of the king!”

"How could it be a deceiving the king?" Wu Haogu smiled, "The current official family is a saint. How could he not know whether the haunted is fake? The demolition of the house is real?"

Of course, Song Huizong knew about this! This was originally a matter of Wu Haogu and Song Huizong joining forces to build a plan! If Duting Office, Tongwenguan, Concierge Court, Huaiyuan Office, Guozixue, Imperial Academy, Wuxue, Primary School, Kaifeng Prefecture School, where can I find 20 million to build the Qionglin Palace for him?

If anyone has been deceived, it is just a few important officials in the Political Affairs Hall. In fact, this is also a kind deception. Without spending a penny of the country, he also built a garden and a palace for Song Huizong, built affordable housing for many officials in housing difficulties, and built a small and sturdy "branch city" next to Kaifeng Prefecture City.

If the Jurchens still call you in the future and cannot defend Kaifeng Prefecture City, you can hide in Qionglin New City for a while, right?

Moreover, if Song Huizong told the gang of priests clearly, he would definitely be blocked, so he could only do it quietly.

I didn't dare to say that I wanted to build the Qionglin Palace from the beginning, but I only dared to say that I sold the land of Duting Post to the Liao envoy to build a new inn next to the Qionglin Palace, and "by the way" to repair the Qionglin Palace, which was also disrepaired...

Of course 2 million is not enough, but you can start working on projects. After a while, the military science department of the Military Academy has been incorporated into the martial arts, and the martial arts under the Imperial College can be demolished.

The martial arts occupies a much larger area than Dutingyi, but the location is not very good. In Nanxunmen, it belongs to the outer city of Kaifeng Prefecture, but it can still be exchanged for 4 million pieces. In this way, the second phase of the Qionglin Palace project and the new martial arts can be carried out at the same time...

Just by demolishing it little by little, building it in one phase, with five or ten years, it can build a brand new Qionglin New City for the people of Kaifeng.

This is really a great thing that is good for the country, the people, the king and the officials, and is good for all aspects... What Wu Haogu did is so good, it was simply a time travel for Comrade Lei Feng!

Of course, Wang Shi also has benefits. Real estate transactions must be counted as a share, but he doesn't care about money at all (he has money but no one inherits it). He just wanted to make Song Huizong happy and become promoted... Wang Shi, who has been having a life of wealth and idle food, didn't know what was wrong. He is 65 years old and has bad health. He actually wants to be the official of the Privy Council. Of course, he can do this. His wife has been dead for 20 years and has long been no longer a real prince consort.

However, it is not the Grand View, Zhenghe, Chonghe and Xuanhe periods that Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty could do whatever he wanted. If he really wanted to ask Wang Shen to be the Privy Council, he would probably be blocked by the primates.

...

The next morning, in Chongzheng Hall.

The Holy Lord Song Huizong took out the marked comment about the haunted Dutingyi from a pile of memorials on the desk, opened it and placed it in front of him.

"Fan Qing," he suppressed his laughter and directly pointed out the name of Fan Chunli, the Right Chief of Shangshu who had just stepped down as the official of Kaifeng Prefecture. "What's the matter with the haunted Duting Post? Is someone in Kaifeng Prefecture wronged to die?"

Death after being wronged? What's going on? Why did the emperor think about this?

Fan Chunli was shocked when he heard this question. He was the previous master of Kaifeng Prefecture. If someone on the ground of Kaifeng Prefecture became a ghost, he, the prefect, had the responsibility!

Oh, if someone just died of wrongful grievance, the responsibility is not very big. The problem is that the unjustly death has become a ghost... and it is a ghost that cannot be saved by even the monks of Daxiangguo Temple, that is a great responsibility.

Fan Chunli thought hard and thought, but she really couldn't remember who was wrongly accused of death?

"Your Majesty, maybe it was because of Shaosheng and the wronged souls who were framed by treacherous ministers during the Yuanfu period were at work." Han Zhongyan spoke at this time to relieve Fan Chunli, and pointed the finger at the new party.

The loyal and loyal who was killed by the new party must have become a demon...

"Is that true?" Zhao Ji turned his eyes and looked at Zeng Bu, "Zeng Qing, is there such a thing?"

Zeng Bu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the sayings of ghosts and gods are unreliable. Shaosheng, during the Yuanfu period, the country was prosperous and the people were safe, and the Western thieves were pacified. The political achievements are obvious to all."

Although it killed some people, the merits outweigh the demerits!

"Your Majesty," An Tao, the official in the Privy Council, reported at this time, "Shaosheng, although he won the military victory during the Yuanfu period, he was far from being a prosperous country and a peaceful country.

The country was prosperous and the people were at peace during the Yuanfeng period. At that time, the imperial court and local warehouses were all rich, and even small counties had less than 200,000 yuan in money and grain. Since the Yuanfu period, all localities have spent all their money and grass to supply border troops, but the army still lacked food and grass. Many local officials could not even withdraw their monthly salary on time. I don’t know where the public’s property went? Please check it out."

This is the new party causing internal strife! There are actually great differences within the new party.

Although An Tao also has a background in the New Party, he is not Zhang Dun. Zeng Bu's group is not the core. Moreover, his relationship with Zhang Dun is very bad, so it is normal to have the opportunity to step on two feet.

And what he said was not completely wrong. The financial regions during the Shaosheng and Yuanfu periods could not be compared with those during the Xining and Yuanfeng periods.

Because Zhang Dun led the leadership of "Shaoshu" and was not thorough, he only restored the "Exemption Law", "Baojia Law", "Qingmiao Law" that was abolished during the Yuanyou Renewal period, as well as continued implementation of the "General Settlement Law", "Baojia Law", and "Farmland Water Conservancy Law", and changed the "Exemption Law" to the "Employment Law". However, the "Equalization Law", "City Change Law" and "Fangtian Tax Law" were not restored.

In other words, Zhang Dun's "Shaoshu" was based on concessions to the big merchants and landlords. Therefore, the country's financial situation was not as good as Xining and Yuanfeng. At the same time, it had to support large-scale military use, so it would naturally consume all the wealth accumulated over the years.

In addition, the "Equal Export Law" and the "City Change Law" are the routes of official business and business operations to crack down on businessmen, which are extremely correct in politics, so An Tao still believes that the new policy during the Yuanfeng period of Xining was completely correct.

"Maybe it was Xining, the small vendor who died tragically during the Yuanfeng period turned into a ghost?"

Han Zhongyan immediately spoke up to counterattack An Tao. Zhang Dun's route was just a bit ruthless in attacking officials, and industrial and commercial households and landlords could still tolerate it. The "Equal Export Law", "City Change Law" and "Fangtian Equal Tax Law" that An Tao wanted to restore really made the entire Kaifeng Prefecture complain.

Song Huizong coughed at this time, stopping the quarrel in the court. A "ghost" actually ignited the war in the court. This was a bit beyond the expectations of the Saint Lord Zhao Ji.

"What kind of unjust ghost is it? Let's talk about it later." Zhao Ji said seriously, "Now, let the Liao envoy move to Qionglinyuan to live nearby.

But you can’t always live in Wang Shiguo’s house, right? Why not choose a new site near Qionglinyuan and build a new inn for Liao envoys to live in."

Want to build a house for the Liao envoy?

Zeng Bu, An Tao and Zhang Feng immediately became nervous.

Now the Liao envoy said that there was a ghost in Duting Post, and the official family would build a new house immediately. What does this mean? It means that the official family wants to be brothers with the Liao Kingdom... This is the line of the old party! The official family turned out to be close to the old party! What should I do?

Han Zhongyan and Fan Chunli were so happy!

The official family is indeed a saint. Knowing that the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty are all waste snacks, it took a lot of effort to fight the Western Xia, and they had not won the final victory. Fighting with the Liao Kingdom is a complete old birthday star who is tired of hanging himself!

So I'm still brothers with the Liao Kingdom and live together.

"Your Majesty said so much!" Han Zhongyan immediately stated, "Duting Post has been disrepair for a long time, and even if it is not haunted, it is time to build a new museum."

"But building a new museum costs a lot," Song Huizong said reluctantly, "Now the treasury in the country is empty, and it is the time to be frugal.

Why not do this? Just take the old Dutingyi land to Christie's to sell it, and the proceeds will be used to build a new building."

Holy Lord!

Han Zhongyan and Fan Chunli were so excited! It didn’t cost the imperial court’s money to build a house for the friendship between Song and Liao. What a great emperor!

"Your Majesty, the land of Duting Post is in the inner city of Kaifeng Prefecture, and the land near Qionglin Garden is relatively cheap. If you want to sell Duting Post, the money you get is probably less than 2 million. It is enough to build a new museum of 200,000. How can you use the remaining money?"

An Tao was a native of Kaifeng Prefecture, and also served as the Minister of Revenue and the Sansi Envoy. He was very good at managing finances. He immediately thought of the difference in demolition.

Song Huizong was quite unhappy when he asked about it. This old guy gave up Huangzhou. When he was in Shanzhou, he was so confused. Why did he feel sober when he mentioned money?

"If you are rich," Song Huizong said with a gloomy face, "I also want to repair Qionglin Garden and Jinming Lake."

The air in Chongzheng Hall suddenly solidified. Although the emperors of the Song Dynasty were in power, they were not very free to spend money. Who told them not to kill the literati? The literati were not very honest. It was impossible to contribute to the tourism industry in Beijing and Chengde in later generations like the sage kings of the Qing Dynasty.

However, what Song Huizong is going to do now is a strait. He is not plundering the Minsheng Paste to build a house for himself, he just wants to sell a piece of irrelevant land in the inner city of Kaifeng Prefecture...

Moreover, it seems that this matter does not need to be approved by the two governments, right? Well, it should be possible to care about it or not, so just take less care of it.
