At that time, there happened to be a monk named Ciben who came to the capital to preach the Dharma.

It just so happened that the day Shu Dan left Beijing was the time when Ci Ben entered Beijing.

So, the idle men in Bianjing joked: Zhongcheng rented a ship out of Beijing, and the monk went to the palace by handing his horse!

You can't say it, it's quite rhyme!

It can be seen that the melon-eating people in the Song Dynasty also had a very profound literary foundation!

but……

Zhao Xu pursed his lips and said in surprise: "There is such a virtuous minister, and Sun Chen should be of great use!"

The Empress Dowager nodded with satisfaction and said, "Since even the officials agree, let the Bachelor's College draft an edict in that year!"

"The former Censor Shu Dan, the chief minister of the censor, took Chao Fenglang as Zuo Zhengyan, and supervised the case of the minister's money with Cai Jing and others."

Zhao Xu hurriedly said, "Sun Chen is obeying the kindness of the Queen Mother!"

But where the Empress Dowager did not pay attention, Zhao Xu's little hand had already started to rub it subconsciously.

Shu Tan, a famous speculator among the New Party.

Can be called a contemporary little Lu Bu!

When he was in the court, he hugged countless people's thighs in order to climb up, but as long as he climbed to a high position and his original thighs lost their value, he would decisively backstab again.

Therefore, not only the old party members hated him, but also the new party members hated him.

Therefore, when Zhao Xu ascended the throne last year, the court refused to punish the officials and immigrated the world, no one pleaded for him, let alone put his name on the list.

And how did the Empress Dowager notice this person?

Zhao Xu didn't know much.

But it's certain that it won't be her own idea.

Someone must have been a staff officer for her and introduced her to this little Lu Bu who is now teaching in her hometown.

Who is it?

If you have this qualification, you can also give advice from the Empress Dowager, and you can also be familiar with the stories of ministers in the court, and you are not afraid of people who are not afraid of taboos.

Only a life-long wife.

At the same time, this person must have enough say in front of the Empress Dowager.

As a result, the list quickly shrank to less than five.

Among these five people, the destiny of the priest of the family must be eliminated first.

So, only a lonely name was left.

Zeng Bu’s wife Wei Wan!

This is the change brought about by the butterfly effect.

At that time, before he ascended the throne, in order to show his intelligence and studious, he asked the two palaces for advice on Chunqiu.

Of course, the two palaces can only find foreign aid.

So, the Empress Dowager found Zeng Bu, while the Empress Dowager Xiang found Deng Runfu.

Since then, Zeng Bu has been a celebrity in front of the Empress Dowager.

He once issued a magistrate of Yangzhou, and his specifications were the standard specifications of the magistrate who was appointed as the magistrate of the Duanming Palace, the official magistrate of Yangzhou.

Although Zeng Bu people went out, their influence has always been in the court.

His wife Wei Wan often enters the palace and chats with the Empress Dowager.

As Zhao Xu knew, the Empress Dowager liked the minister's wife very much and once publicly praised her: "The family is virtuous and the country is a wife, and there is no one who has ever known her wife."

Zeng Bu also had a passionate fight with the Gao family in Yangzhou.

During the Xinglong Festival, didn’t Zhao Xu receive a report from Chen Mu in Mingzhou, saying that it was a Chameng mission and was burned to death in an inn between Liangzhe Road and Hangzhou?

The person who did this was Gao Zunlu, the commander of the Xuanyi Army in Hangzhou.

But this Xuanyi army is not only available in Hangzhou, but also in Yangzhou.

The commander of the Xuanyi Army in Yangzhou was another Gao family member - Gao Zunli.

And Gao Zunli and Zeng Bu are now said to be just a matter of being a disciple.

Zeng Bu’s relationship is not that way.

He had a daughter who married Xiang Zongdan, the clan's brother of Empress Dowager Xiang, the transferee of Jingxi Road.

The last time the court was promoted to rule, Xiang Zongdan returned to Beijing and lobbyed Xiang's family.

I want Mrs. Xiang to plead with Zeng Bu.

But she was rejected by the eldest lady - Xiang's family has always been sober and cannot participate in such a thing.

But Zeng Bu is in the Gao family and Xiang family are related, which is certain.

Zeng Bu and Zeng Zixuan are indeed a talent!

As Zhao Xu knew, Zeng Zhao caused a big disaster this time, and Wei Wan, as his sister-in-law, entered the palace many times to put out the fire.

Now, although Zeng Zhao's fire has not been extinguished.

But Zeng Bu's favor before the Empress Dowager did not seem to have disappeared.

This made Zhao Xu somewhat regretful.

It's just that Zhao Xu did it himself.

If he hadn't sent Gao Zunhui to Guangxi to get sugar, how could the Gao family and Xiang family go south so actively?

...

After leaving Qingshou Palace, Zhao Xu walked in the palace corridor in the afternoon surrounded by the dragon.

Zhao Xu murmured softly: "Shuban..."

"hehe……"

But not only the Empress Dowager wants to activate Shutan, but Zhao Xu also wants to!

Why?

Because the place where Shu Tan was managed to live in that time was his hometown, and Mingzhou, one of the maritime trading ports that Zhao Xu attaches most importance to today.

This is Chen Mu's territory.

According to Chen Mu's report, after he took office, he went to see Shu Tan.

This Zhongsi, who was born in his hometown, has been teaching in his hometown since he retired to his hometown.

He is very interesting. As a Jinshi, he was a Jinshi who had served as a senior official.

He took hundreds of apprentices in his private school in his hometown, but he didn't have to pay for students, so he only collected sip, that is, bacon.

So Chen Mu reported that the Shutanjia cured sauce is fragrant.

What’s even more interesting is that Shu Tan collected these bacon, but he rarely ate them, but instead used them to add extra meals to the students.

This is in line with his teaching method of teacher and Mr. Lou Yu of West Lake.

In Mingzhou, the school founded by Lou Yu has always been a supporter of new learning.

It can only be said that people are complicated.

In the court, the contemporary Lai Junchen was a kind elder in his hometown and dedicated teacher who cultivated talents.

Moreover, according to Chen Mu's report, Shu Tan accepted many poor students.

The slaughter sent by other people is basically used to add extra meals to these students.

In addition to these, what interested Zhao Xu the most was Shu Tan in Mingzhou Contemporary, actively cooperated with Chen Mu's work, mobilized his influence in the Donglou School (the private library established by Lou Yu, named Donglou), and actively responded. He also personally encouraged parents of wealthy students to invest in Mingzhou shipbuilding.

When Zhao Xu learned about it, he thought about reincarnating him.

But... he thought for a moment and gave up.

Because Shutan made too many enemies.

Therefore, he was in the same situation as Lu Bu at the Baimen Tower - everyone hated him and wanted to kill him.

The price of resuming rashly is too high.

But if the Empress Dowager resurrects, there will be no problem!

I am a filial son, respecting the kindness of the great mother, and it is reasonable.
Chapter completed!
