On the 3rd of February 329, the Song Dynasty, Mr. Lu arrived at Duan Tiande's house in the morning. Before noon, the two of them sipped tea from Hunan and talked directly about what they were most concerned about.

"This time the official family will adjust the official system, but I don't know if Wen Zhang's brother Wen Tianxiang will be dismissed from office?" Duan Tiande was most concerned about this.

After hearing Duan Tiande's words, a little dissatisfaction flashed in Mr. Lu's eyes. However, since the two had the same position, it was meaningless to accuse friendly forces. Mr. Lu said: "I carefully studied the newspaper and felt that the court just wanted to adjust all departments and thoroughly straighten the upper and lower levels. Change the title of the position, that's all."

"It's really vulgar to change the good minister to the minister." Duan Tiande continued to express his inherent position.

"It may not be." Lu Yuanwai shook his head, "The Shangshu was called Shangshu Ling in ancient times. It started in Qin and was established along the Western Han Dynasty. It was originally an official of Shaofu, in charge of documents and ministers. During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, he was appointed as the eunuch, also known as the Zhongshu Ling. Emperor Cheng of Han changed to scholars. Later, the government affairs of the Eastern Han Dynasty were returned to Shangshu and followed him as the head of all the ministers..."

Lu Yuanwai is the son of a Jinshi. Although he failed to pass the Jinshi, he also passed the scholar. He is very familiar with these allusions. "... As for the minister, he is like a village chief and a pavilion chief, he is an obvious leader. He is not worse than the title of Shangshu who comes from the middle official."

After listening to this erotic story, Duan Tiande sneered: "Hmph. Since that's the case, then the prime minister is called Chief, and the prime minister is called Chief. Haha! Chief, the chief of slaughtering animals!"

After saying such a malicious joke, Duan Tiande was amused by the noun he created.

Mr. Lu knew that his in-laws and Wen Zhang fought fiercely, and he was also extremely dissatisfied with the Song Dynasty court. However, this joke was really not funny. Mr. Lu didn't laugh, but just said, "If the official family said it would change everything this time, do you know what the situation is?"

"What will happen?"

"No one in the court dares not to obey the orders of the officials! Since then, the officials have said everything and followed the rules!"

Duan Tiande was stunned. His father was also a Jinshi. Although Duan Tiande also studied, he really did not have the talent in this area. However, this does not mean that Duan Tiande really knew nothing. The Song Dynasty was a system for officials and scholars to rule the world together, and many things were never implemented by orders from officials. It is common for ministers in the court to argue with the officials.

After hearing the reminder of his in-laws, Duan Tiande immediately grabbed the key point, "If this is the case, wouldn't we be able to ask someone to sue the Wen family's dog thief in the court?"

Yuanwai nodded, revealing his helplessness. The reason why the Jinshi families were able to monopolize the affairs of the Song Dynasty was because the Jinshi families still maintained a minimum bottom line. In the late Northern Song Dynasty, the new and old parties fought to the death, using exile to each other, causing the families to turn against each other. However, the Jin soldiers went south, causing the Jinshi families who were born in the old party to suffer a devastating blow. The new Jinshi families once again restored the bottom line of marriage and struggle.

Under the struggle with bottom line, the Wen family did not dare to implement such extreme policies. Dare to implement them is equivalent to going against the entire Jinshi group. At that time, the Jinshi will first oppose the officials or prime ministers who formulate policies, forcing the officials to "take back their lives" or let the prime minister step down. After the new prime minister comes to power, he will purge the traitor party. As the Wen family, the Wen family will not only be dismissed from office, but also fall to the point of being despised by the Jinshi group. The future examiners are the Jinshi family, and they will not give the children of the Wen family hope to be admitted to the Jinshi group. Until the time is too long that the generation of the hated Wen family grows old, the Wen family will have hope that someone will be admitted to the Jinshi again. Even if the disciples of this group of people die, the Wen family may have the opportunity. Morally, the disciples also have the obligation to obey the will of the teacher.

Because he was familiar with the system of the Song Dynasty, Mr. Lu was extremely worried about the changes in the political situation of the court. The Jinshi refused to give up the power, which stumped the officials who seized power would be willing to give up the power of taking over the power of life and death?

"Then I must catch Wen Zhang's painful foot... If not, I will give him a concubine?" Duan Tiande broke the silence in the house.

"I've tried it." Mr. Lu said calmly.

Duan Tiande was happy at first, but after a moment he gritted his teeth and said, "It seems that Wen Zhang is still a fake Taoist scholar! Humph, just like the official family! Pretend to be noble!"

Zhao Jiaren only married one wife, no concubine, and no other woman. He had never seen Zhao Jiaren go to the pleasure boat to have fun. This made the Jinshi Group have a bad impression of Zhao Jiaren in this regard and has a low evaluation. If these people learned the real reason, Zhao Jiaren's negative evaluation of the personal hygiene status of women in this era, the Jinshi Group would probably curse.

Even if he didn't know the reason why Zhao Jiaren was arrogant to heaven, the Jinshi's evaluation of Zhao Jiaren was pretending to be noble. Su Dongpo, who was considered a moral model, also gave away pregnant concubines and unpregnant concubines. Why did Zhao Jiaren be so pure and careless and not approach other women after marrying a dignified and beautiful lady? Didn't Wen Tianxiang, who Zhao Jiaren trusted the most, also behaved as a concubine and a singer when he was young?

"I also asked him to make friends with local Jinshi from Jiangning to make friends with literature, and Wen Zhang refused to give in." Mr. Lu continued to talk about the closeness he had tried.

Duan Tiande became even more angry after learning about his in-laws' efforts. He cursed: "As an official, he does not recite poems and makes friends with wise men. Instead, he does farm work like a farmer and digs with his master. What kind of morality is this! He is really exhausted!"

After scolding, Duan Tiande was indignant for a moment and suddenly felt refreshed, "Can you use this to impeach Wen Zhang?"

Before Mr. Lu could object, Duan Tiande smiled and said, "I said I would use this reason to impeach Wen Zhang, just anger."

When Mr. Lu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his in-laws had not broken through the new lower limit, he was relieved. However, this ease could not withstand the pressure brought by the latest situation. Just thinking that Wen Zhang had to work as the prefect of Jiangning for more than a year, Mr. Lu felt a little chilling.

"My home land has been rented out, where is your home?" Duan Tiande asked.

"We have also gone out," Mr. Lu replied.

"Hmph, this time I negotiated with the tenants that I will bear the land tax that I have to pay per acre of land. So I have to rent for 65% of them. If it weren't for the dog thief Wen Zhang, I wouldn't have given up so much. Mr. Lu, what about your family?"

"...I also pay the land tax on my family and ask the tenants for 60% of the rent." Mr. Lu replied.

Duan Tiande shook his head, "You are so kind-hearted!"

After sighing, Duan Tiande stood up and said, "It's already 12 o'clock. Let's go and have a few drinks first. Let's discuss how to prevent Wen Zhang from taking advantage of the opportunity. Even if you treat it as eating yellow lotus, you can live for more than a year before you talk about it."

Wen Zhang did not hear Duan Tiande scolding him, but he knew very well that someone was scolding him, and there was even a saying that some people had cursed Wen Zhang and other witchcraft. Wen Zhang was very angry at this at first, but now he doesn't care. In this spring, all the progress of Jiangning Prefecture was better than he expected. The Song Dynasty had full experience in mobilizing disaster victims to build infrastructure. As long as food is managed, food or cloth is distributed, even the old lady in her forties was willing to come out to participate in the construction of the project not far from home. The Qinhuai River project, which was originally planned to be completed in four years, is now expected to be completed within three years.

But the prefect Wen also had his own concerns. He would immediately face a situation of disagreement. If the court's supply of grain and cloth was interrupted, the prefect Wen would immediately face an extremely embarrassing situation. At this time, the prefect Wen wrote a memorial to the Zhao Guanjia.

After reading the request in this memorial about whether to supply food and cloth stably, Zhao Jiaren was amused by Wen Zhang's pitiful words and sentences. But after laughing, Zhao Jiaren was a little annoyed. Don't Wen Zhang think this is too outrageous? What good is Wen Zhang's failure to Zhao Jiaren? I wanted to issue an order to rebuke Wen Zhang, but Zhao Jiaren chose to remain silent. It may not be a good thing to make Wen Zhang feel some pressure.

After finishing the matter here, Zhao Jiaren met with the Ministry of Industry smelter who returned from Japan. The group of people said that they had found the secret of the steel of "Miaofamura Masashi". The iron ore in Ise has a relatively high content of lead, and the Muramasa Katana sword made from the iron ore there is lead steel.

He summoned several smelters and took out lead steel first. Zhao Jiaren first stroked it with his hands, and felt that the surface of the steel block was indeed extremely smooth, which was definitely comparable to ordinary steel. Then he picked up the samurai sword imitated by the Dasong factory, wrapped his fingers in silk, and slipped across the surface of the samurai sword, and felt that it was as if two pieces of silk were rubbing smoothly, as if there was no resistance. The imitation samurai sword was exactly the same as the smooth surface of "Miaofamura Masahiro".

"Thank you all." Zhao Jiaren praised the efforts of the craftsmen of the Song Dynasty first, and then made a request, "Let's hand over this steel to the Yiyu navy and let them build it according to the requirements."

"After the official, the production of assembly lines like the Yiyu Navy Army is handicraft after all, and the efficiency is still low." The masters of the Song Dynasty expressed their contempt for Japanese handmade knives.

"So what I want is that you learn the techniques of casting samurai swords and appearance. As long as you master these, we have the final say in how to produce samurai swords." Zhao Jiaren said with a smile.

As engineering men, the masters really believe in the official school, but theory and practice. One of them said with a strong figure: "But we asked someone to experiment, the actual combat of the samurai sword is still not as good as the samurai sword. Those who are in charge of the samurai sword can easily master the usage of the samurai sword, but the samurai sword cannot."
