Chapter 92: Approval for leave

It was getting darker, and Chenpi found a lot of information from all over the place.

Including the past wars between Huanqing Road and Xixia, the memorials of court officials, as well as the current personnel, number of troops on Huanqing Road, etc.

I was not clear about it in the past, but Zhao Xu was shocked to understand it.

What shocked him the most was that the current strategy of Huanqing Road was the result of the compromise between the court's internal struggle: the new party wants to fight, the old party wants to reconcile, and eventually it becomes a passive defense without fighting and disagreement!

I decided on this strategy before the war started, but I was actually defeated before the war!

Without any intention of attack, isn’t it just that it is obvious that the enemy is to come and fight with confidence, we only defend!

Zhao Xu was frightened and angry when he saw it.

If this continues, no wonder there will be a shame of Jingkang. It is a miracle not to destroy the country!

I don’t know how long it took, Chen Pi quietly came in and whispered in Zhao Xu’s ear: “The official family, Su Xianggong, Liang Shangshu and others are all waiting in the Chuigong Hall.”

Zhao Xu frowned, his heart was filled with anger. He then packed up the information in front of him, took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and stood up and said, "Let's go."

While talking, he was determined to reverse the combat ideas of Huanqing Road and reposition the external strategy, especially the so-called bullshit annual monies!

Before this, he had to clean up his old party in the court, otherwise it would be difficult to do so.

Zhao Xu thought in his heart, although he was too anxious, which might cause turmoil in the court, but he couldn't care.

Seeing Zhao Xu walking while thinking about Congcong, Chen Pi followed a few steps and said, "The news of the death of the empress dowager spread throughout Kaifeng. In addition, the two prime ministers Fan took their leave together."

Zhao Xu paused suddenly and said, "What did you say?"

Chen Pi hurriedly lowered her head, handed over two documents, and said, "Shangshu, the Secretariat just sent it."

Zhao Xu didn't even look at it, and smiled angrily, saying, "Okay, okay, very good! He is really the mainstay of my Song Dynasty and my loyal minister!"

Tangerine shrank her neck and dared not speak.

Now, the entire Song Dynasty court's senior management was only one Privy Councilor Su Song.

This person was timid and had nothing to do with the affairs of the Privy Council, because the reason was that the Privy Council did not know the politics.

The Privy Council and the Political Affairs Hall hold both military and political powers, and they are indeed checked and balanced. This reason is upright and there is no problem!

Zhao Xu narrowed his eyes, and his eyes flashed with murderous intent, and said coldly: "Go to Chuigong Palace!"

Chenpi responded and followed Zhao Xu, and couldn't help but speed up the pace, but she was very worried.

The government was too anxious and was a little reckless. Now he offended several ministers in the court, and the government obviously would not give up, and something big is going to happen!

When Zhao Xu arrived at the side door of Chuigong Hall, Su Song, Liang Tao and Shen Qi were already waiting.

Just as Zhao Xu was about to enter, Chen Pi suddenly received another message and whispered: "The people from the official family, Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the Censorate are here."

"Let them wait."

Zhao Xu snorted coldly and entered the Chuigong Hall directly.

When Su Song, Liang Tao and others saw it, they quickly saluted and said, "I will meet with the official family."

Zhao Xu waved his hand and sat down on the chair, his face calm.

When Su Song saw it, he said nothing and sighed softly.

Liang Tao, Shen Qi and others already knew that Erfan was taking leave, so they raised their hands and stopped talking.

Zhao Xu sat on the chair, thought for a moment, and said directly: "Chen Pi, convey my meaning. I agree to the second husband Fan's leave and criticize them for three more months to take good care of their health. Only by maintaining their health can they share their worries and make plans for the country."

Before Chenpi responded, Su Song opened his eyes wide open, and could not practice after he closed his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, in this way, the three provinces will be suspended, the political affairs will be curbed, all officials will be uneasy, and the world will be in turmoil. Please think twice."

Zhao Xu looked at him coldly and said, "Why, the imperial court has fewer people, and I will be destroyed in the Song Dynasty? Otherwise, you will also take leave, and you will not be more than you, and you will not be less than you!"

Su Song was so choked by Zhao Xu's words that he couldn't speak. He knew that Zhao Xu was angry and dared not say more.

Zhao Xu scolded Su Song, and knew in his heart that government affairs could not be stopped. He said directly: "Open a room in the Political Affairs Hall, and everyone and institutions of the three provinces moved in. Su Song, you will be the magistrate for the time being and take it for me. Don't make excuses with me. If you want to take leave, I will criticize you now, and criticize you for ten years!"

Liang Tao, Chen Qi and others bowed their heads, and the afterglow glanced at Su Song quietly.

Lu Dafang and Erfan's leave for one month or three months is actually well known that with the official temperament, these three people cannot come back.

After ten years, Su Song has been in more than seventy years, and he may not be able to live another ten years.

Su Song's face twitched. Although he was used to being mixed, he would not follow him at this time. He sighed in his heart and raised his hand and said, "I will receive the order."

Zhao Xu snorted coldly and said, "In addition, the other side of Huanqing Road is alone. I plan to send troops to reinforce. The Privy Council must coordinate as soon as possible."

There was war on Huanqing Road, so it was normal for the imperial court to send troops to reinforce.

But the Song Dynasty has always been very alert to the border general, and penetrated deep into the bone marrow. Su Song listened and said, "Your Majesty thinks how much is appropriate to adjust?"

Zhao Xu thought, of course, at least 100,000 yuan was needed, but firstly, the food and grass supply could not be supplied, and secondly, it might not be collected in a short period of time. He pondered for a moment and said, "Five thousand, what I want is elite soldiers and generals. If the Privy Council fools me, I will even seal it off!"

Su Song's old face couldn't help but twitched, and he thought silently for a while, saying, "Is it the subordinate to the governor Zhang Jing who was dispatched?"

Zhao Xu had already understood Zhang Feng and nodded, "Yes, I will give him a gold medal. All the generals on Huanqing Road will obey his orders. He dared to disobey the orders. He will take action first and then report!"

Su Song looked slightly shocked and said, "Your Majesty, no! The power of Bian Zheng will cause uneasiness to the court and the public, and if he imitates it everywhere, he may return to the vassal states!"

The Song Dynasty's control over the army can be said to be unprecedented and modern. Some of them are from the guilt of the Zhao family's injustice, and there are also historical reasons for the fact that there are many vassal states in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

Zhao Xu waved his hand and said, "For a moment, after this battle, the gold medal will naturally be collected and the seal will be transferred back to Beijing."

Zhao Xu did not give Su Song the opportunity to object, so he turned to Liang Tao and said, "How is the military pay being raised?"

Liang Tao quickly raised his hand and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, I, I and the Ministry of Revenue have raised a million yuan, and are trying every means to raise more."

Zhao Xu's anger was slightly reduced, and he smiled and said, "This news from Liang Aiqing is the only good news I have heard for so many days."

Liang Tao raised his hand, not happy or unhappy, and said, "I dare not be praised by Your Majesty for your duty."

Zhao Xu nodded slightly and said, "If all the officials and officials can have the duty of their beloved ministers, I don't have to worry like this."

Liang Tao didn't dare to answer the conversation. If he answered and spread it, there would be more than one or two people who offended him.

Zhao Xu took the teacup handed by Chenpi and said, "I have ordered the treasury to allocate another million to the Ministry of Revenue. The Ministry of Revenue must make preparations and transfers. The Palace Front Office will transfer 1,000 people and personally escort them to Huanqing Road."

Liang Tao raised his hand and said, "I obey the order."

After Zhao Xu said this, he fiddled with the tea and said, "I sent an order, Zhang Dun, the right servant and the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat, and the Ministry of Personnel; Zeng Bu, the Right servant and the Minister of the Central Secretariat, and the Ministry of Works, and Cai Bian, the Right servant and the Minister of the Central Secretariat, and the Ministry of Rites, and ordered them to arrive in Beijing as soon as possible."

Su Song frowned as he listened.

The Right Pushe and the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat are a kind of title, equivalent to the Deputy Prime Minister, and the assistant of the Three Prime Ministers, but they also lead the affairs of six ministries, which is worth pondering.
