In the lobby of the front hall of Zhao Mansion, Su Xun, who came to Zhao Mansion to visit, looked at the obsessed Zhao Lei and asked him how to deal with Tian Wei's request and the matter of Bianjing News.

"Officials, Bianjing News News is fine now. There is no need to change Bianjing News News to the eighth edition for those scholars who are greedy!" Tian Lan disagreed with Zhao Lei's involvement in this matter. After all, there is no benefit in doing this matter, so she softly advised Zhao Lei not to find Ye Qingchen.

Hearing Tian Lan's persuasion, Zhao Lei turned to look at Su Xun and asked, "What do you think about Brother Mingyun?"

"Sit down and watch!" Su Xun replied in a simple and clear manner.

"Oh! But I have different ideas from you. If the Bianjing News Newspaper is reprinted, it will be able to accommodate more unsuccessful scholars and support more workers, and at the same time express more insights in the newspaper. After all, the Bianjing Newspaper is the mouthpiece of the court and represents the interests of the court. If the reprint is reprinted, it will increase the influence of the court. Why not do such a good thing?" Zhao Lei said to Tian Lan and Su Xun with a confident and indifferent look on his face.

"How to solve the problem of money and costs?" Su Xun didn't understand why Zhao Lei had this confidence and asked him in confusion.

How to solve it! Of course it is an advertisement. As early as when Zhao Lei was preparing to run a newspaper, he had already planned to launch an advertisement. However, because the Bianjing News News was taken away by the three departments, Zhao Lei, who had not received any benefits, was certainly unwilling to take out the proposal of making money by advertising. However, now some people use newspapers as tools to attack Zhao Lei, so Zhao Lei immediately thought of a plan to remove the firewood from the bottom of the pot. First, let the fourth page of the Bianjing News News News lose money, and then Zhao Lei proposed to save the situation. It is best to incorporate the newspaper yamen into the New Army Logistics Office.

With this kind of abacus, Zhao Lei would certainly not tell Su Xun the whole story, so he smiled and did not answer Su Xun's question, but asked him: "Since Brother Mingyun has arrived in Bianjing yesterday, I believe he is very familiar with the matter of Bianjing. I wonder who is behind the revision of the Bianjing News News?"

"Who else? Brother Sanshi has only two enemies in Bianjing, one is Lu Yijian and the other is General's Sect. The General's Sect can't affect those scholars who are still arrogant even though they are in a down-and-out manner. Only Lu Yijian has the ability to promote all this behind their backs!" Su Xun replied very annoyedly about the childish question asked by Zhao Lei. In his opinion, Zhao Lei's question was simply an insult to his IQ.

Seeing Su Xun a little annoyed, Zhao Lei laughed and said, "Just just ask, why bother Brother Mingyun? By the way, Sanshi hasn't asked why Brother Mingyun came to Bianjing yet?"

"Yes! The sir lives well in Meishan, why did he suddenly ask to come to Bianjing?" Tian Lan also asked in confusion. It seemed that she didn't know why Su Xun suddenly came to Bianjing.

Hearing Zhao Lei's concerning inquiry, Su Xun sighed and said depressedly: "Two months ago, my manor in Lingyun Mountain was suddenly burned by a thunder fire, and the entire manor was burned out. Fortunately, I took my inner manor and dogs out to visit relatives and did not come back. So there was no damage, but Lingyun Mountain could not live anymore. I was going to open my home again and ask Elder Zhishen of the Great Buddha Temple. But he told me that the East is the East, and the prosperous place will be more prosperous!"

"The prosperity of the East is beyond Bianjing, but there is also where. I didn't expect that Brother Mingyun actually believed in Buddhism!" Zhao Lei shook his head and said to him with a smile when he heard Su Xun's absurd reason for coming to Bianjing.

"I not only believe in Buddhism, but also believe in Taoism. It can make me feel more calm and study and learn more!" When Su Xun heard some sarcastic words from Zhao Lei, he said calmly.

With Su Xun's expression, Zhao Lei was very surprised by the education problems of the Northern Song Dynasty. The scholars of the Northern Song Dynasty were not only proficient in poetry and prose, but also studied Buddhist and Taoist scriptures. If a scholar on the street was casually drawn, he could communicate in-depth religious issues with the masters of the Buddhist and Taoist religions. Not only that, the scholars of the Northern Song Dynasty were basically proficient in medicine, astronomy, geography, mathematics and other miscellaneous studies. Simply put, the knowledge of the scholars of the Northern Song Dynasty was much wider than that of college students a thousand years later. This situation always made Zhao Lei feel that the IQ of later generations was gradually decreasing.

"Since Brother Mingyun is planning to settle in Bianjing, I don't know what plans are?" Zhao Lei picked up the teacup, moistened his thirsty throat, and asked Su Xun carefully.

Su Xun looked at Zhao Lei with his eyes flashing, and then thought about it and immediately thought of Zhao Lei's purpose. He then smiled and said, "What else can I plan? Since I came to Bianjing, of course I am buying real estate and grain fields and preparing to live for a long time."

"Bianjing is not Meishan. The housing prices are so high that it is imagined. A small yard with two or four yards costs at least 3,000 taels of silver, which is almost ten times that of Meishan. The grain fields near Bianjing have long been divided up by wealthy merchants. It is easy to organize if you are happy, and it is not the turn of Brother Mingyun to intervene. Bianjing is indeed as prosperous as a dream, but survival is not easy!" Zhao Lei sighed and told him what he had thought of.

Su Xun, who had figured out Zhao Lei's plan, heard Zhao Lei's words, smiled and asked in cooperation: "Life in Bianjing is so difficult, I wonder if Brother Sanshi can help me?"

"Why do you want to help? There are two villas on the left and right sides of the Zhao Mansion, and no one lives there yet. Brother Mingyun's family is worse than living in the Zhao Mansion. The environment here is quiet and suitable for Brother Mingyun to study hard." Hearing Su Xun's words, Zhao Lei hurriedly said what he said.

"In addition to studying hard, it would be best if you can help Brother Sanshi handle some business, right? Brother Sanshi!" Su Xun looked at Zhao Lei and said jokingly.

When Zhao Lei heard Su Xun's words, his face turned red. He didn't expect that Su Xun could guess his plan.

"Brother Mingyun should know that there are many things in the new army and the logistics yamen. How can I be busy with it alone? The matter of the new army is related to the country of the Song Dynasty. I cannot trust outsiders and have never found a suitable candidate to help. Seeing Brother Mingyun coming to Bianjing, I said this!" Zhao Lei saw that the matter was exposed, so he said calmly to Su Xun.

After Zhao Lei trained the new army, he was indeed much busier than others. Although there were Ding Du, Zeng Gongliang, Xue Xiang, Han Qi and others in the new army. However, a large yamen involving hundreds of thousands of people could not share the busy work for Zhao Lei. Although Zhao Lei had several masters and Bosses under him to help Zhao Lei handle the heavy work, how could Zhao Lei leave many secret matters to them? That's why Zhao Lei was so anxious to find someone he could trust to help deal with the new military affairs.

When Su Xun was faced with Zhao Lei's request, he was very hesitant. He didn't know whether he should agree to Zhao Lei's request.

Su Xun was a very contradictory person. He was a person with political ambitions, but he was unwilling to set foot in the officialdom. He liked to talk about military affairs, and many articles passed down from generation to generation discussed military issues, but he did not hold a military post in his life. Su Xun was very knowledgeable about military tactics, but refused to lead troops, and even refused to recruit the court. Lin Lao was the proofreader of the Secretariat, but died soon after.

Zhao Lei felt very sorry for Su Xun. In his opinion, Su Xun was definitely a rare genius. In history, he only left the name of an essayist. No one knew his military and political achievements. The main reason why Zhao Lei was determined to ask Su Xun to help him.

"What else can Brother Mingyun consider? With Brother Mingyun's talent, it is not an exaggeration to serve as deputy envoy of the new army. Why are he unwilling to contribute to the court? Now there are strong enemies outside the Song Dynasty and worries inside. It is the time for us to show our strength. Is Brother Mingyun ready to be a Tian family man in this life?" Zhao Lei said loudly to Su Xun.

"Since Brother Sanshi loves me so much, I'm not pretentious." Su Xun really couldn't refuse Zhao Lei's invitation. Whether it was the friendship between the two or Zhao Lei's life-saving grace for Su Xun's beloved son Su Shi, Su Xun could not refuse Zhao Lei. After hesitating, Su Xun agreed to Zhao Lei's request.

When Su Xun agreed to help Zhao Lei handle the new army official documents, Zhao Lei was overjoyed and immediately handed over all the heavy official documents piled up in the study to Su Xun, and then went to the Ministry of Revenue to add a new army official position to Su Xun.

...

"What? The Liaoren rebelled, and the four prefectures of Guangnan East Road and West Road were captured?" Zhao Lei, who had just arrived at the imperial city, saw that the Privy Councilor who had been in a hurry, got news that shocked Zhao Lei after asking.

The local Liao people in the Northern Song Dynasty were a branch of Baiyue. They were the ancestors of the Zhuang people. They lived in the southwest of the Song Dynasty. They had a small population and low social status. In addition, the environment in Lingnan made the Liao people living in poverty. With the strong control of the court, they were actually worse than the Qiang people in the northwest. Now they rebel and rebel, and they took over the four states in one fell swoop. How could Zhao Lei not be shocked? Zhao Lei even more despised the combat effectiveness of the southern army of the Song Dynasty.

After learning the news, Zhao Lei hurried to the palace to meet the official Zhao Zhen. He learned from the eunuch that the official was discussing affairs with several important officials in Zichen Hall. He hurriedly left.

"Crown Prince, Zhao Lei, the new army training envoy, asked for a visit!" With the sharp tone of the eunuch, Zhao Lei walked into the Zichen Hall in a serene manner.

"Zhao Aiqing came just right, and the two east and west sides of Guangnan rebelled. Song Aiqing recommended the Zuo Jinwu General Sang Yi to lead the first-wing army to quell the rebellion, and Cai Aiqing recommended the new army to quell the rebellion. What do Zhao Aiqing thinks about this!" Zhao Zhen, the official on the dragon throne, looked at Zhao Lei who was walking into the hall and asked majestic and loudly.

Zhao Lei looked around and saw that there were no one in the hall except for the eight important officials of the court. When he heard the words of the officials, he couldn't help but sneer at the two chiefs of the Privy Council, Song Shou and Cai.

"Dare you ask Lord Song, how many rebels and soldiers appeared in the Guangnan Rebellion?" Zhao Lei asked Song Shou with a sneer.

"This!" Hearing Zhao Lei's question, Song Shou hesitated and dared not say it clearly.

Song Shou, who was hesitant, Zhao Lei smiled even more sarcastically and said to the official Zhao Zhen: "Report to the official family! The Guangnan Liao people rebelled, and the rebels would never exceed a thousand people. There were nearly 10,000 soldiers around the two routes, and there were tens of thousands of soldiers in the surrounding prefectures. If the court sent a 25,000 army with tens of thousands of troops in Guangnan to pacify the rebels of only 1,000 people, what was the majesty of the court when this matter was heard? What was the majesty of the official family? So I think that as long as the general Sang Yi, the general of the Zuo Jin Yiwu, leads a battalion of soldiers and joins the Guangnan army to suppress the rebellion!"

"Officials! I also agree with Lord Zhao's opinion. The rebels of less than a thousand people are in Guangnan. There are tens of thousands of soldiers from the Song Dynasty. With the planning of the Left Jinwu General Sang Yi, General Sang Yi, if the rebellion cannot be suppressed, I question the need for the existence of several armies in the south!" King Meng Zhao Yuanyan came out to support Zhao Lei and said calmly to the official Zhao Zhen.

"Since the emperor and Zhao Aiqing both said this, I will issue an order to ask the Zuo Jinwu General Sang Yi to lead a battalion of soldiers to Guangnan Road and command the Guangnan Road army to quell the rebellion of the Liaoren!" The official Zhao Zhen looked at the expressions of Zhao Lei and King Meng, and felt that they were right. This is a way to test the army of several southern routes. If tens of thousands of troops cannot suppress the rebellion of thousands of people, there is no need for the army of several southern routes to exist. So I might as well disband. Thinking of this, I immediately issued an order to say.
