Zhao Ganshun seems to be well-behaved, very well-behaved!

Zhao Ji's father was very satisfied with it, so on the day Zhao Ganshun arrived in Kaifeng Prefecture, he received the imperial edict for "marriage granting".

I just gave Zhao Ganshun and Yelu Nanxian a marriage! I don’t know what the marriage has to do with Zhao Ji? Do you need him to give it?

However, Zhao Ganshun still happily accepted the order, and then he was busy trying to have a child with Yelu Nanxian. Zhao Ji was still waiting to hold his grandson! Zhao Ganshun and Yelu Nanxian had to hold hands and try to get Yelu Nanxian pregnant before Zhao Ganshun returned to Liangzhou. In this way, Yelu Nanxian could stay in Kaifeng Prefecture to give birth to a grandson for Zhao Ji. If Zhao Ji's grandson was born, then Yelu Nanxian could go to Liangzhou to live a small life with Zhao Ganshun.

As for Zhao Ji's grandson, of course, he had to stay in Kaifeng Prefecture to bathe in the emperor's grace! This grandson is the prince of Xiping and will inherit the positions of Hexi Jiedu and Anxi Dadu Protector in the future...

If Yelu Nanxian can't get pregnant or can't give birth to a son... that doesn't matter. Yelu Nanxian also brought a concubine Guanyin maid, who can also help. If Guanyin maid cannot fulfill this glorious mission, then Zhao Ji will also give Zhao Ganshun a few women who can give birth to Zhao Ganshun. If they can't get pregnant, then Zhao Ji, a father, can only help with it.

In short, Zhao Ganshun must keep an heir in Kaifeng Prefecture, otherwise Zhao Ji, who wanted to hold his grandson, would not let him go.

However, Wu Haogu is not in the mood to care about how Zhao Ganshun gave birth to a grandson for Zhao Ji, because he is almost gone in the backstage of the Zhengshi Hall!

On the second day of the second month, the canal that had been frozen for a long time had already opened. The officials who were about to take a comfortable official boat to take the post began to leave Beijing, and Wu Haowen was also one of them.

A gorgeous official ship was docking at the pier in Dongshuimen. An eunuch rushed over and brought a few pastries and boxes of tea cakes that the emperor rewarded. The gift was of very light value, but it was very rare to give pastries and tea cakes to a magistrate who was about to leave Beijing.

This shows how Zhao Ji's favor for Wu Haowen is also evident.

However, when such an official who was almost certain to enter the Political Affairs Hall left Beijing, there were very few officials who came to the dock to see him off.

After seeing off the eunuch, Wu Haowen stood at the bow of the boat, his fat face was gloomy and his brows were slightly frowning.

He knew why he was neglected by the officialdom because Su Dongpo was already critically ill!

This is a certain critical illness! It is not a state where I was sick and able to persist. Since last year's New Year's Eve, the right prime minister of the Song Dynasty has never appeared in public, and of course he has never been to the court, nor has he been to the Political Affairs Hall.

What made the old party figures in the court even more worried was that, as Su Dongpo's successor, Li Gefei fell ill after the New Year and had been on leave for several days without going to court.

This means that the old party is likely to lose two important officials of the priest level soon! And it is difficult to find a replacement candidate.

Although the senior officials of the old party were Han Zhongyan, Su Che, Fan Chuncui and Fan Chunli, the new party leader Cai Jing launched more powerful candidates, Zhao Tingzhi and Tao Jiefu.

Among them, Zhao Tingzhi has been the Chief Censor of the Censor for many years, and everyone knows that he is very favored by Zhao Ji. His qualifications have long been enough to be the chief magistrate. It is just to make the New Party more beneficial to control the Censorate, Cai Jing let Zhao Tingzhi remain in the position of Chief Censor. Now Su Dongpo and Li Gefei are almost dead, so it is natural for Zhao Tingzhi to enter the Political Affairs Hall.

Needless to say, Tao Jiefu has all the credits for recovering Yin, Xia, Yu, Yan and Shuo. Even if he can't become the prime minister, there will always be affairs in the Privy Council.

In other words, the new party led by Cai Jing will definitely win a ruling position this time! Zhao Tingzhi is stable!

In this way, the old party among the six prime ministers can maintain one seat at most. And it is hard to say whether this seat can be preserved, because there is another Lu Huiqing who is also a hot topic. Although Lu Huiqing has a very poor character, he has made contributions in the northwest this time. It would not be too much for a few days to be the prime minister?

Therefore, once Su Dongpo and Li Gefei die of illness in recent times, the old party may be cleared from the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council.

Of course, Wu Haowen is not afraid of being a good writer. Cai Jingdu cannot stop his official career, and it is only a matter of time to be the prime minister.

But he was too young and didn't look like he entered the Political Affairs Hall in his twenties! No matter how much Zhao Ji favored him, he had to train for more than ten years, and he could only become a deputy prime minister or a member of the Privy Council when he was in his 4th year.

Before this, he could not fight with Cai Jing, so naturally he could not protect his followers. Of course, the officials in Beijing would not offend the prime minister Cai Jing, who was the prime minister more than ten years later.

Moreover, Wu Haowen is also Wu Haowen’s younger brother!

The contradiction between Cai Jing and Wu Haowen is actually not inconsistent. After all, Wu Haowen is a traditional literati and bureaucrat, but he married Han Zhongyan's daughter and became an old party member.

However, the conflict between Cai Jing and Wu Haogu is a little bit unmatched. They are not personal grudges, nor even party disputes. Moreover, Wu Haogu is a military officer, so he cannot be the priest!

However, Wu Haogu supported a Confucian empirical school (also known as the Confucian rational school), which is definitely a school that can crush Jing Gong’s new academic studies!

Compared with the empirical school, the threat of Neo-Confucianism and Shu studies to Jinggong's new learning is almost worth mentioning...

Moreover, the Confucian scholars trained by the Yuntai Academy are enough to crush the Confucian scholars trained by the idea of ​​"making scholars with classical skills".

Therefore, Wu Haogu was digging the foundations of Cai Jing and the New Party. As the leader of the New Party, Cai Jing must launch an attack on Wu Haogu and the empirical faction after the big tree Su Dongpo fell.

That’s right, the truth is indeed on Wu Haogu’s side!

But Cai Jing has the power!

"It seems that someone is coming!"

Wu Haowen, who was in deep thought, suddenly heard the voice of his aide Zhang Zhifeng in his ears.

Zhang Zhifeng is as old as Wu Haowen. He is a talented person and is indeed talented. He is a student of the General Studies and Law School of Yuntai Academy of Yuzhou Island, and has also stayed at the school as a professor. Because he wanted to participate in the Left List Examination this fall, he was recommended to serve as a staff member of Wu Haowen. With his talent, if he wants to get the right Jinshi, he can be said to be sure to win.

But in the current view of Shilin Qingliu, the Jinshi on the left list is a good man, and the Jinshi on the right list is just a martial Jinshi, which is not worth mentioning, so Zhang Zhifeng wanted to win the left list.

He was not sure about the test of the test in his hometown of Changzhou. He was from Wuxi County, Changzhou. Because of his literary style and many scholars, the difficulty of the test of the test was hell.

Moreover, the tricks in the trial of the Ministry of Rites are much greater than those in the trial of the Ministry of Rites. For Zhang Zhifeng, who came from a poor family, the grasp of the passage is not very large.

So he wanted to take the way of locking the hall, and to take the locking hall, he had to have an official position, and to have an official position, he had to have a recommended candidate, so he became a martial artsman and a good literary scholar.

"It seems that Wu Shuaisi is here!" Zhang Zhifeng's eyes were sharp, and he was already watching Wu Haogu riding a tall horse, approaching from far away under a group of followers' guards, and heading towards the pier along the street.

...

"Big brother, Su Xianggong..."

"It's not good... I'm not awake anymore."

The two brothers met at the dock, but they were talking about Su Dongpo's illness. Wu Haogu came directly from Su Dongpo's prime minister's mansion. He had not returned to the Wu family's mansion for many days, and he stayed in Su Dongpo's mansion to be a good apprentice. Because he knew that today was the day when Wu Haowen left Beijing to take office, he took the time to come to the dock to see off his younger brother.

In fact, he pretended to behave in Su Dongpo's mansion. He was neither a doctor nor Su Dongpo's son. It was not his turn to perform filial piety in front of the bed. He was actually reading books these days, reading Sansu's works, such as "The Book of Changes", "The Yellow Gate Laozi Interpretation", "Zhilin", "The Book of True", "Heng Lun", etc.

It's a bit ashamed to say that although Wu Haogu is known as Su Dongpo's favorite disciple and one of the seven scholars of Su's school (Wu Haogu, Qin Guan, Huang Tingjian, Chao Buzhi, Zhang Lei, Chen Shidao, and Li Li), he actually knows nothing about the real Su's school. Of course, knowledge is not about writing poems and lyrics, nor about writing and painting, but about understanding Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and various schools of thought. Wu Haogu and Ersu were not the same as each other... It was not until this time that he had prepared a good student in Su Dongpo's mansion that he took some of the works of Sansu to study, and he truly understood Su's thoughts.

"Where are Daddy and Xiao Mother? They have left?"

Wu Haogu looked around and found no trace of Wu Chengzhi and Feng Erniang.

"It's gone." Wu Haowen said, "My mother is weak, and my father is with her back."

Feng Erniang is an elderly mother. She is not strong at first, which is a bit damaged. She was infected with wind and cold last winter and has not been very good at it. So she didn't stay at the dock for too long, so she went back with Wu Chengzhi.

Wu Haogu nodded, "It's better to let my father go back to Beijing to become an official, so that he can take care of his mother."

He always called Feng Erniang Xiaoniang, not his mother.

Wu Haowen shook his head, "Forget it... Daddy will not have a good life if he stays in Beijing. It's better to go to Pingjiang Army. It's not far from Xiuzhou, so I can take care of him. And with Mi Xiangyang there, I will never suffer any loss."

Of course, Mi Xiangyang's official fortune is good. His sons Mi Youren and Zhao Ji are buddies! Why do Zhao Ji have to take care of Mi Fu? Moreover, Wang Shi passed away last winter, so Zhao Ji cherished this "old friend" even more, so he was appointed as the deputy envoy of the Sixth Route Shipping and the Instructor of Suhang Yingfeng.
