Five hundred and fortieth chapters announced to the world
The court officials who came were divided into two teams, not civil and military officials, but distinguished by grades.
Moreover, there were very few military officials because most of them were stationed abroad. At the same time, the civil officials of the court were deliberately excluded from the decision-making circle of the court's major policies.
A large group of people came to the Zichen Hall. They needed to continue waiting for time to enter the Zichen Hall.
The yellow gate stands on both sides of the hall, and there are also the censors, the attendant censors, etc., separate them.
These are normal. What makes many people frown and look down is that the guards with purple-robed and gold belts stand a little further away, and need to be equipped with a ring knife, exuding invisible sharpness.
Some people looked at each other silently, their eyes showing coldness.
Most of the people here are the "New Party", but even the "New Party" hates the Imperial City Department. Because this institution is not ruled, has no human touch, and has too much killing, which makes people feel afraid.
The guards of the Imperial City Department have no idea about these gazes. They are special institutions and only obey the officials and are older than the officials!
The crowd looked at each other without any concern. They stood there, first looking at Zichen Hall, which had not yet opened, and then the big figures in front of them.
The "Shaosheng New Policy" is different from the "New Law", which contains many contents that are difficult for even the "New Party" to accept, such as "military reform", such as "the court system", "local system", and tax cuts, such as many ancestral systems.
‘You guys are afraid they are not feeling well, hum!’
Some people think happily in their hearts.
There were indeed too many eyes looking at Zhang Dun, Cai Bian and others, guessing their ideas.
At this time, the big guys of the "new and old" parties are probably excited and nervous, right?
The sky gradually brightened, and after waiting for a while, the gate of Zichen Palace creaked open.
Everyone looked up and saw that there was darkness inside and they could not see anything clearly.
Although the door has been pushed open, it is still not the time to enter.
The yellow gate kept watching the time and waiting for the bell.
In the back hall, Zhao Xu closed the "Records of the Emperor Shenzong", looked up and looked outside, and said, "How long will it take?"
Chenpi hurriedly said, "The official family is still half an hour away from Chen Shi."
Half an hour, that is, one hour.
Zhao Xu looked at the clothes on his body and felt a little heavy and a little cold, saying, "Put a few carbon stoves in the hall to make the fire more prosperous."
"Yes." Chen Pi replied, then turned around and called Huangmen, whispering orders.
After waiting like this, Zhao Xu was a little bored and picked up the "Records of the Emperor Shenzong" to read.
As a final work of the emperor, the words in it are very cautious, sophisticated and confusing. Zhao Xu needs to read them very carefully to understand one or two of them.
Outside the Zichen Hall.
Zhang Dun and others were also waiting for time, thinking about it in their hearts.
Today is the beginning, the beginning of an unprecedented change.
Similarly, it is also the most difficult beginning.
Not to mention whether someone will have any trouble today, just say that after today, the government and the people will inevitably explode, and the boycott of the "Shaosheng New Deal" will reach an unprecedented level of intensity.
As those people thought, Zhang Dun, Cai Bian and others were both happy and nervous.
They are walking on a road with an unknown future.
Their predecessor, Wang Anshi, has failed.
Wen Yanbo leaned on crutches and lowered his head, as if he was pretending to be sleeping.
Su Shi and others held Banshu with expressionless expression on their faces.
Lin Xi, Li Qingchen, Xu Jiang and others were as calm as usual.
Cao Zheng, Wu Juhou and others, who belong to the middle class, were relatively relaxed, and the huge pressure had not yet fallen on their shoulders.
The officials at lower levels are more relaxed, and many people are smiling. Some people even dozed off and stood there snoring gently.
Dongdongdongdongdong
The bells in the palace suddenly rang.
Dull, crisp, powerful, echoing in the palace.
Tong Guan quickly walked out of the inside, stood in front of the steps, and shouted loudly: "Enter the hall!"
So, Zhang Dun and Zhang Jue led the civil and military officials, holding a tablet in their hands, moved forward step by step, stepped onto the steps, and walked into the hall.
Zichen Palace is really very small and can't occupy many people. Under Tong Guan's arrangement, he barely stood down, but there were also many people standing by the door, which was very crowded.
Back hall.
Zhao Xu kept all the movements in his ears, and he sat without moving.
Although the court officials arrived, according to the rules, he had to wait for another half an hour before he could attend court on time.
It was not until the bell of Chen Shi that Zhao Xu got up, tidy up his clothes, and entered through the side door of Zichen Hall.
As soon as Zhao Xu entered, the ministers raised their hands and waited for Zhao Xu to sit down and bowed together.
"I will meet your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"
The sound was loud and surrounded by Zichen Hall for a long time.
After sitting down, Zhao Xu looked at everyone, with a majestic and solemn expression and said, "All the Lords are exempted from courtesy."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The ministers responded loudly, stood up straight, put down the tablet, and looked at Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu sat down and waited for the court officials to get up. He looked at it carefully again and said in a deep voice: "Opinion."
Chenpi stood above Danbi, overlooking the ministers, and took out an edict from the plate held by the yellow gate beside him.
This is the established process because I am worried that someone will have something to do.
Zhang Dun, Zhang Feng, led the lead, raised the scepter, and said in a deep voice: "I will receive the order."
"I will receive the order."
Cai Bian, Wen Yanbo, Li Qingchen, Lin Xi, Xu Jiang and others followed.
Then came Lai Zhishao, Liang Tao, Huang Lu and others.
Then, there were six ministerial officials including Cao Zheng and Su Shi.
Then, Wu Juhou, Chen Jun and other ministers.
Although it is not as clear as the division, the sound seems to be neat, but in fact it still has speed and slowness, clearly distinguishing between official positions and grades.
"I have succeeded to the throne with a noble virtue, and there are saints in front of me, and there are thousands of years later. I have been sleeping day and night, without any slackness, and I dare not neglect... However, national affairs are getting more and more difficult, and the turbulent times are turbulent, the court is trapped in party struggles, and the people are put in fire and fire... The public resentment accumulates, the government is boiling, and the heart of change is gradually getting hot... I uphold the heart of heaven, inherit the public's opinion, and the imperial edict begins with reform..."
The sound of the tangerine peel is still a little tender, and she tries her best to keep the sound loud and stable.
His voice fell from front to back in Zichen Palace, accurately into everyone's ears.
In fact, most of the official edicts are empty words and clichés, and only a few words are the most important.
The most important thing is the eight words "The edict starts with reform and begins with reform".
Even if Zhang Dun, Cai Bian and others were so cunning, they knew what happened today, and even knew that the edict was drafted by them, they were still excited.
Zhang Dun's sword eyebrows were raised, his dark face twitched, and he gritted his teeth tightly!
Cai Bian's hands trembled and his eyes were moist.
No one has a deeper relationship with the ‘New Law’ than his.
Because Wang Anshi is his father-in-law!
Wen Yanbo, Su Shi and others were silent and listened quietly without any reaction.
Some of the officials behind were excited and depressed, but no one was doing anything randomly, and they all remained in a solemn manner and listened quietly to the will.
Zhao Xu sat on the chair, and even though these people lowered their heads, they could still see their expressions and movements clearly.
This edict almost made everyone realize their true colors.
Zhao Xu observed and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
