After reading Ning Fu's long memorial, Zhang Dun and Zeng Bu all breathed a sigh of relief.

"I report to the official family that I think Ning Fu's idea is very feasible!"

Zeng Bu was the first to stand up and express his position.

Just now he was angry with Ning Fu for exposing martial arts, but now Ning Fu has proposed a solution. If martial arts is really successful, this will also be Zeng Bu's great political achievement.

"I also think this proposal is feasible!"

Zhang Dun and Cai Bian also expressed their stance at this time.

Seeing that all the ministers agreed, Zhao Xu also nodded with satisfaction.

"Ning Fu, you discovered the problems in martial arts, and you wrote the memorial to solve them. I don't think so. How about I leave the martial arts to you to preside over?"

Zhao Xu looked at Ning Fu and asked with a smile.

"this……"

Ning Fu showed hesitation when he heard this.

"you are not willing?"

Zhao Xu was stunned.

"The officials have misunderstood. Of course I am very willing to take over the martial arts, but don't you want to send Prince Duan to the northwest? This trip will take at least a few months, so I am really at a loss for what to do!"

At the end of his speech, Ning Fu spread his hands with a look of embarrassment on his face.

"Yeah, how could I forget this?"

Zhao Xu slapped his head. The faster the reform of martial arts, the better. If Ning Fu went to the northwest for a few months and then came back to reform martial arts, it would be a waste of time.

"Mr. Zhang, what do you think we should do?"

Zhao Xu finally looked at Zhang Dun and the others and asked.

"I have reported to the official family that I think that for the matter of sending King Duan on his trip, anyone can do it, but for the matter of martial arts, it must be Uncle Qing Ping!"

Zeng Bu was the first to stand up and express his position.

Cai Bian turned to look at Zhang Dun, then stood up and agreed: "I second the proposal!"

Zhang Dun didn't want to agree because he was the one who recommended Ning Fu to go to the northwest.

But looking at the current situation, Zhang Dun had no choice but to disagree, so he reluctantly stepped forward to second the proposal.

"Then I really don't want to go to the northwest?"

Ning Fu asked again in a very unsatisfied manner. He looked at Zhang Dun while speaking, but received a cold snort from him.

"not going!"

Zhao Xu laughed and then ordered again.

"The purpose is to separate martial arts from Taixue and place it directly under the Privy Council. The post of martial arts master is to be held by Ning Fu, who will be fully responsible for the reform of martial arts!"

"Thank you for your grace!"

Ning Fu thanked him immediately and felt relieved that he no longer had to accompany Zhao Ji to the northwest.

At this moment, Zhao Xu found Zhao Ji poking his head outside the palace, as if he wanted to come in.

"Come in, what will it look like if you probe your head?"

Zhao Xu said angrily.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ji immediately trotted into the main hall. To Zhao Xu's surprise, Zhao Ji, who had been looking sad just now, now looked happy.

"Brother Emperor, I have thought clearly. I am willing to go to the northwest to serve as a military supervisor!"

As soon as Zhao Ji came in, he immediately saluted Zhao Xu.

When Zhao Ji spoke, he especially blinked at Ning Fu next to him. It was obvious that he had no idea what happened in the hall just now.

"Haha~, I know that Brother Eleven, you will definitely take the overall situation into consideration!"

When Zhao Xu heard this, his anger turned into joy. First, Ning Fu raised the issue of martial arts, and then Zhao Ji suddenly figured out that he was willing to go to the northwest. This was a double blessing for him.

"Since Brother Eleven has figured it out, go back and make preparations early!"

Zhao Xu said to Zhao Ji again with a pleasant look.

"Brother, please retire!"

Zhao Ji immediately agreed and said that Ning Fu had nothing else to do, so he left with Zhao Ji.

After leaving the main hall, Zhao Ji said to Ning with a face full of joy: "Brother Ning, when do you think we should leave for the northwest? How about setting it at the end of this month?"

"this……"

Ning Fu looked at Zhao Ji who was so happy, and for a moment he couldn't bear to tell him the truth.

"What's wrong? Brother Ning, do you have anything else to do? How about a few days later?"

Zhao Ji saw Ning Fu's hesitation and immediately thought of him again.

"Alas~, I also want to accompany Your Highness to the northwest, but..."

"But what?"

Zhao Ji suddenly felt an unpleasant feeling in his heart.

"But just now, the officials assigned me another important matter, so I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany His Highness to leave the capital!"

Ning Fu replied with a sincere expression.

"What! How could this happen?"

Zhao Ji couldn't believe it.

He was willing to go to the northwest just because Ning Fu would accompany him, but now Ning Fu suddenly couldn't say it anymore. How could he be so deceptive?

"It's a bit regretful to say that there will probably be trouble in Xixia, and the northwest army will definitely take action. Your Highness will probably witness history, and I can't accompany His Highness. I might regret it for the rest of my life!"

Ning Fu shook his head and sighed at the end.

"There's still going to be a war!"

Zhao Ji almost cried when he heard this.

Then Zhao Ji suddenly turned his head to look at Chui Gong Hall, gritted his teeth and ran towards the hall crying, shouting as he ran: "Brother, I was wrong, I won't go to the northwest..."

Looking at Zhao Ji who was crying and shouting, Ning Fu shook his head again and sighed: "Martial ethics are not popular, no wonder the country will be destroyed in the future!"

Ning Fu returned home in the afternoon and just sat down to drink tea when he saw Liu Zheng rushing over.

"Here you go, my old butler said that after this trip, half of his life will be lost!"

Liu Zheng slapped a thick account book on the table, then picked up the teapot and drank it in one gulp.

"Thank you for your hard work, old housekeeper. Have you finished counting all the land in the Imperial Manor?"

Ning Fu picked up the account book and asked with a smile.

Some time ago, Zhao Xu rewarded him with an imperial mansion, this time because Ning Fu helped him treat his illness.

This kind of thing should not be made public. After all, Zhao Xu couldn't go around saying that he indulged in indulgences, so even the rewards were secretive, and he only rewarded land, not official positions, so as not to attract attention.

"After counting, the officials are so generous. Not only does the imperial estate have fertile farmland, but it also has half a mountain of tea gardens. They have all been rewarded to you!"

Liu Zheng showed an envious expression at the end. He had been an official for half his life, and this was the first time he had seen someone as favored by an official as Ning Fu.

"This is nothing. I won't let the old butler work in vain. I will send him thirty pieces of money later, which will be regarded as his hard work!"

Ning Fu smiled again.

His family was small, and he didn't even have a housekeeper who could settle accounts. Liu Qingxin couldn't go out of the city to count the fields in person, so she had to work hard for Liu Zheng's housekeeper.

"You are so generous, but to be honest, you should hire a few more servants. In addition to the housekeeper, it is best to have a special accounting room, as well as slaves, nursing homes, etc., when you move to the earl

Over there in the government, these people can all be used!"

Liu Zheng finally showed a serious expression.

Liu Zheng visited the Earl's Mansion that Zhao Xu rewarded once. It covers a large area and cannot be taken care of by five or six people. A large number of manpower will be needed to fill it.

"The Earl's Mansion is too big. I have discussed with Qing Xin and do not plan to move there for the time being. However, the housekeeper and accountant need to be recruited in advance, but I don't know anyone in this regard?"

When Ning Fu said this, he looked at Liu Zheng again.

Liu Zheng had been an official in Kaifeng Mansion for many years and was extremely familiar with the people and things in the market.

"Okay, I'll take care of the recruitment for you. As for the moving, you can discuss it with Qingxin then!"

Liu Zheng waved his hand and said, Ning Fu has no parents, so his father-in-law can only worry more.

"Thank you, father-in-law!"

Ning Fu smiled and thanked Liu Zheng. To be honest, he was really grateful to Liu Zheng, especially for family matters, as Liu Zheng took care of many things for him.

"By the way, what have you been busy with recently? Do you often go to the palace to give lectures to the officials?"

Liu Zheng asked Ning Fu casually at this time.
