Zhao Huan asked: "What have you gained in Liaodong over the past year?"

"Reply to Your Majesty, I think the new policy has a serious disadvantage."

“What’s the disadvantage?”

"Businessmen colluded with officials, and officials used their power to gain amazing wealth, and power and money formed a monopoly."

"Then do you have any good solutions?"

"Not yet. I am just worried that in the long run, the officialdom of the Song Dynasty will become corrupt and be penetrated by merchants, which will be unfavorable to the country."

Zhao Huan smiled. He didn't expect that Zhao Sheng could say these words at a young age, but it was not easy.

Zhao Xing looked at Zhao Huan with admiration, as if he was trying to see from the emperor that he was confident and everything was in control.

In his heart, the emperor must have a way to solve these problems.

But Zhao Huan did not continue talking, but changed the topic: "How is the King of Liao in Liaodong?"

"The King of Liao has been committed to building schools and reclaiming deserted fields in Liaodong in the past six months. I believe that within two years, Xianzhou will become another Xianzhou."

"Okay, the Liao King is quite capable of administration." Zhao Huan smiled, but he knew in his heart that Zhao Sheng had helped Zhao Chen a lot.

"Your Majesty, I..."

"What do you have to say, why are you stuttering?"

"I think King Liao... is a talent for governing the world."

"Okay, let's talk about something else."

Seeing that the emperor was unwilling to continue talking about this topic, Zhao Xing didn't say much more.

Zhao Xing had some contradictions in his heart. The reason why he assisted Zhao Chen wholeheartedly was actually selfish.

The Taizu lineage was led to the South China Sea and sealed the Kingdom of Yue, but in fact everyone wanted to return to the Central Plains.

But as long as the current emperor is still alive, they will definitely not be able to come back.

For the future development of the family, Zhao Xing got to join Zhao Chen, hoping that he would jump over the dragon gate and become the emperor one day. In this way, their Taizu lineage could return to the Central Plains.

In the past, Zhao Xing hated Zhao Huan more.

He felt that the emperor was cruel and ruthless, bloodthirsty, and was a complete tyrant.

But people will grow up slowly. After growing up and experiencing more, their ideas will change.

What's more, after meeting the emperor, he felt that the emperor was different.

From hatred to worship, this is Zhao Xing's heart change.

To be honest, he also had a psychological change in Zhao Chen.

In the past, he wanted to use Zhao Chen to support Zhao Chen to take office.

Now, he has wavered with Zhao Chen, and he feels that Zhao Chen is not worthy of possessing the great Song Dynasty.

Such a prosperous country should not be inherited by Zhao Chen.

This is a very contradictory psychology.

After dinner, the sunset fell in Yanfu Palace, making it quiet and peaceful.

Zhao Huan suddenly said, "Zhao Ling, I have great expectations for you. I hope that one day you will be in charge of the government affairs hall and help me manage the great Song Dynasty."

Fourteen-year-old Zhao Xing suddenly turned red and didn't know what to say. He quickly bowed: "What kind of virtue is me?"

"I said you can."

Zhao Huan turned around and asked Zhao Chun who was on the side: "Chun'er, what do you think?"

Zhao Chun said in a silence: "Chun'er thinks that Brother Zhao Xing has an extraordinary temperament and will definitely be the pillar of my Song Dynasty in the future."

Zhao Xing looked at Zhao Chun who had never said a word.

In terms of blood relationship, Zhao Chun is indeed his cousin.

The little boy kept eating quietly while talking to the emperor.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhao Xing felt a strong sense of intimacy towards him.

Logically speaking, Zhao Chun is Zhao Chen's biggest competitor, and Zhao Xing should be on guard against him and on guard.

But now, looking at Zhao Chun's tender heroic spirit in his eyebrows, Zhao Sheng felt that he could not be prevented at all.

Zhao Huan joked: "Zhao Xing, look, Brother Chun looks very good at you."

"The Duke of Qin praised it."

Zhao Xing felt even more conflicted.

He actually wanted to tell the emperor just now that something was wrong with Zhao Chen recently. He was fascinated by a woman named Lu Wanqing and was a little confused about the southeast, west and north.

And this Lu Wanqing's origin is very mysterious and is definitely not an ordinary person.

But when he said this, he took it back.

Because he knew that these words were a fatal blow to Zhao Chen.

He has assisted Zhao Chen for several years, but he doesn't want to do so, and he doesn't want his efforts to be wasted.

So, he chose not to say it.

After leaving the palace, Zhao Xing returned to his residence, which was a house given to him by the emperor.

With servants and guards, it is a leisurely and leisurely way.

In the evening, a carriage came to Zhao Xing's mansion.

The one who got off the carriage was not someone else, but Zhu Qing, a famous tycoon in Tokyo.

"What's wrong with Boss Zhu looking for me?"

"I heard that Zhao official returned to Beijing from Xianzhou and had entered the University of Tokyo. I came to congratulate you and prepared a brief gift. If you don't abandon me, I hope Zhao official will accept it with a smile."

Zhu Qing knew very well that Zhao Xing was a celebrity around Zhao Chen, and he had put his treasure on Zhao Chen, so this little official Zhao Xing had to serve him better.

Zhao Xing knew his ideas and purpose clearly.

Zhao Xing smiled politely and said, "Boss Zhu is so serious that he will not receive any reward without merit."

"Officiale Zhao, you don't know anything."

"oh?"

"This Tokyo City, money can be reached. You just arrived in Tokyo City and need money, so it's easy to do things in the future."

"I'm still studying in school and I don't spend much money on it."

"Zhao Guanren, you are a young talent. Do you know that the court policy this year is vigorously open to private trading clubs, and Tokyo is full of opportunities. Talents like you, although they are studying in college, can do business while studying and making a lot of money."

"Haha, Boss Zhu was joking. I didn't have such intentions. Please come back."

"Official Zhao, after all, I am also the father-in-law of the King of Liao now, and we are a family."

"see a visitor out!"

Seeing that Zhao Sheng issued an order to expel guests, Zhu Qing put away the money and left in a dirt.

Looking at Zhu Qing's back as he left, Zhao Ling's heart became a little heavy.

These businessmen are too inflated.

Even I dared to bribe!

They gave money everywhere in the officialdom and made friends with powerful people, which was even more dangerous than the landlords who had annexed the land in the past.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xing hurried back to the house and picked up a pen to write a letter to Zhao Chen.

In his letter, he reminded Zhao Chen that it is best to keep a distance from the merchants and not be involved by these merchants.

He had a premonition that the emperor was just a temporary compromise and there would be major changes in the future.

Zhao Chen now has interests entanglements with many wealthy people in the Song Dynasty, and later he feels it is a hidden danger.

Zhao Xing's letter had just arrived at the Liao Palace, but was intercepted by Lu Wanqing's people.

After reading Zhao Xing's letter, Lu Wanqing said, "Fortunately, Zhao Xing has returned to Tokyo, otherwise it would be a big trouble."

A few days later, Zhao Huan finished reading a secret report.
