The operation efficiency of the Zhengshi Hall entering the summer is as slow as ever.

At the beginning of the birth of this huge empire, its founders did not consider that one day it would require decision makers to make a judgment that would determine the future direction of the country within two or three days. Because of this, when the gentlemen of the Government Affairs Hall received news from the four provinces, there was no time to discuss.

Every gentleman in the Political Affairs Hall represents a number of interest groups, civilian groups, aristocratic class, marine merchants, salt merchants, iron merchants, soldiers, eunuchs, local central governments, etc., and everyone hopes to consider as much as possible before making a decision.

Unfortunately, Cheng Jinzhou did not give them time to consider improving.

In the dilapidated and small political affairs hall, the Minister of Rites: "Mr. Zhao, didn't you say you wanted to try Cheng Jinzhou's reaction? Now that you see his reaction, what should you do?"

The so-called Lord Zhao is really Zhao Ling, the Chief Secretary for the Clan Affairs and the Chief Political Affairs Officer. The title of Chief Political Affairs allows him to participate in the discussions of the Political Affairs Hall. The Chief Political Affairs Officer is his real title, which means that he has the right to manage the nobles of the country. Of course, those who can sit in this position are the children of the royal family. Now Zhao Ling is the cousin of His Majesty the Emperor, and the title of a dignified prince is superior everywhere.

In the entire political affairs hall, except for Sun Jifeng who could rely on his seniority to say Zhao Ling, other officials were somewhat lacking in qualifications. However, the civil servant group and the noble group have always been inconsistent. Zhao Ling came up with the idea that now the civil servants from the four provinces would be responsible, and no one would be happy.

Zhao Ling is considered young among a group of officials and political affairs. She is 45 or 46 years old. In addition, her life is easy, her beards are all black and her skin is tender and white. She is completely different from the aging style in the officialdom. He also said whatever he wants to say: "The Emperor has agreed to what the third prince has ordered, and you are all well-known. Haven't you considered this kind of thing long ago? Why do you want to see my joke?"

Because of Zhao Ling's special identity, he seemed to be just a brain-like speaking habit and was often praised by the nobles as "straightforward". However, in places like the Zhengshi Hall, surrounded by a group of old-school civil servants, what he said was not so pleasing.

Sun Jifeng tacitly made everyone's guns and said sternly: "No matter who asked for it, you were in charge of this matter. Now that something goes wrong, you have to be responsible."

"Didn't Cheng Jinzhou want soldiers? Come and fight the Northern Han? We'll leave."

"That's what we have agreed to. And attacking the Northern Han Dynasty will also be beneficial to us." The person who spoke was Liu Zhencao, the head of the Privy Council, when civil servants were in charge of military command, not only should the position of Minister of War be kept for civil servants, but the position of Minister of War be kept for civil servants, but even all positions of Privy Council belong to civil servants. In fact, this is also one of the directions of social development. After reaching a little more, more gentlemen who have received national education will gain more and more central power, and soldiers who rely on battlefield skills and physical skills will lose their status.

"Change the country's major policies because of a star warlock?" Zhao Ling deliberately said in a sarcastic tone: "If another star warlock says next year, we want to attack Jingnan, then wouldn't we have to fight on the third line?"

"The strategy against Daliang will be changed to strategic defense." Liu Zhencao raised his body lightly and made a forward pose.

"Hmph." Zhao Ling made such an expression.

Sun Jifeng whispered: "Mr. Zhao. We have no choice but to challenge Cheng Jinzhou, so why should we provoke him?"

"Millions of taels of silver, and most likely tens of millions of taels of silver, so what if you take some risks?" Zhao Ling said. Looking at the expressions of the disapproval of the people around him, he said in a flash: "I have invited a famous star warlock this time. I will go and talk to Cheng Jinzhou."

"If Lord Zhao is willing to talk, it's better." The others looked at each other, but they didn't want the civil servant group to take responsibility. After hearing Zhao Ling say this, his expressions all eased.

Liu Zhencao did too much military affairs and asked more: "I heard that Cheng Jinzhou killed more than a knife man. I hope you don't want to threaten by force.

"Of course not, I'm going to take someone there."

"oh?"

"Liu Bin." Zhao Ling laughed and said, "Liu Bin has been working as a transfer envoy in Hexi for a year, but his land measurement has not been completed, so there is no way to start reform. Since he likes reform so much, let's send him to the four provinces to be a transfer envoy."

Liu Bin's ultimate reform goal was to divide the land equally, and he had long become a thorn in the eyes of the nobles and a thorn in the flesh. Although the reform itself was conducive to the royal family, as Zhao Ling's prince, he did not care about what the royal family would be and what the future would be. Anyway, the ruler was not his son.

Therefore, in the early days of Liu Bin's reform, nobles, including the capital, would do their best to obstruct them. Now that they have the opportunity, they even want to transfer them from Hexi to avoid the reform being carried out.

The gentlemen of the pure civil servant group actually supported the reform, so they did not want Liu Bin to leave Hexi.

After a tacit look at each other, Sun Jifeng pondered and said, "Cheng Jinzhou sent his fiancée away, at this time."

"That's to defend the Northern Han Dynasty." Zhao Ling interrupted him.

Liu Zhencao said a rare sentence at this time: "Why is he so concerned about the Northern Han Dynasty?"

"The Cheng family seems to be worried about the ancestors of the Northern Han Dynasty?"

"Then you don't have to be afraid of them." Liu Zhencao stood up and whispered: "Actually, I've been thinking recently that with the strength of Beihan and those astral warlocks in De'an, we can all defend themselves. Why are he afraid now?"

Everyone fell silent. The Political Affairs Hall is not a small organization outside the room, and the gentlemen here do not discuss the possible or impossible things. For this kind of exploration of why, most people are habitually sending personnel to figure it out, rather than making guesses on their own.

Zhao Ling looked around and stood up and said, "I want to go to the Royal Star Warlock Association. I will not accompany them in the silver of the four provinces."

After saying that, he got up and left without waiting for the meeting of the Political Affairs Hall to end.

Zhao Ling hummed a song proudly when leaving the small ruined house of the Political Affairs Hall. Although he pretended to be indifferent, he could only see the restraint in his subconscious by not being able to hum a song. Of course, his restraint at the prince, which is different from those small officials from other places.

Zhao Ling had reason to be proud. Among so many people in the Political Affairs Hall, he was the only one who showed the biggest difference between the Astrology Association and the Holy Church: whether a rally can be held to preach the Holy Church.

The answer of the Astrology Society is of course "no" and the choice of the Holy Church is ambiguous.

Zhao Ling has collected information from many countries. These information made him know that in countries where the power of the temple is superior, holding gatherings to promote the Holy Church is a very popular way of missionary preaching. However, in countries where the number of prevailing astral warlocks is rare, they often do not allow direct missionary assembly to appear.

The purpose of the assembly is to gather the masses. The main leader of the masses is not the astral warlock. But the government. By managing the masses, Zhao Ling is qualified to talk to the gentlemen of the Astral Warlock Association.
