Su Wen went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion again. Although Su Changqing built his house far away, this did not prevent him from going home.

"Third brother, it's so deserted in the mansion after you leave, Yumian's sister-in-law is not here, and no one will sleep with me at night." Su Nuannuan said aggrievedly, pulling Su Wen.

Su Wen patted her head and didn't bother with her on this issue.

He took out a bag of spicy sticks from the snack gift bag and handed it to the little girl. Where did the little girl eat this kind of thing.

Immediately attracted attention.

Open the package, pull out one and eat it.

"Third brother, this food is delicious, do you have any more? Give me some more."

A bag of spicy strips was quickly eaten up by Su Nuannuan. Su Wen shook his head and said, "It's not good for children to eat too much."

Su Nuannuan wouldn't care about this, she was arguing for more.

Su Wen had no choice but to give her another bag.

At this time Su Changqing also came back.

Knowing that Su Wen was in the prime minister's residence, he sent someone to call him to the study.

When father and son met each other, Su Changqing glanced at him and said, "What are you doing here?"

Su Wen smiled and said, "I don't want to ask, what should I do with the patrol office?"

Su Changqing rubbed his brows, and told Su Wen about the court affairs, and said: "Today's objections are too strong, and whether the Secret Shadow Guard will be re-established has not yet been fully agreed, but His Majesty has decided to set up the Secret Shadow Guard, and this is only a matter of time." problem."

Su Wen frowned and said: "Your Majesty speaks, and these officials dare to object?"

Su Changqing looked far away, and said: "Since ancient times, above this court, the power of the monarch and the power of the ministers have stood side by side. Although the power of the monarch is supreme, after all, governing the country still depends on the ministers, so to a certain extent, the power of the monarch also needs to be respectful to the ministers." the right to make certain concessions.”

"Now Your Majesty feels that the power of the ministers is too strong, so we need to strengthen the power of the monarch. This is also the basis for the re-establishment of the Secret Shadow Guard. The patrol office and the elimination of officials are all a pretense, but the current officialdom of Dazhou really needs to be rectified. , It can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

Su Wen was a little puzzled: "Then is this good or bad? Will it have any impact on the Patrol Office?"

Su Changqing thought about it and said: "It's hard to say whether it's good or bad! Once a department like the Secret Shadow Guard is established, it will definitely be of great benefit to the purge of officials, but the person in charge of the Secret Shadow Guard must be powerful and dedicated to the public. And don't be greedy for personal wealth, otherwise the Secret Shadow Guard will be the carrion of Da Zhou in the future."

"As for the matter of the patrol office, don't worry, no matter how you deal with it, you will never be involved. According to my understanding of His Majesty, it should also deal with the villain, but these low-level officials will not be too good In the end, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. It should be confiscated, demoted to common people, or sent to prison or hard labor. At that time, there will be a wave of bloodshed."

Speaking of this, he was a little unwilling to continue talking about this matter, so he changed the topic and said: "Your second brother is leaving this afternoon, and he is going to Qianzhou. I don't know when we will see you again. , Originally I didn’t want to send it for my father, but I still feel a little worried, so you can send it for my father, and then persuade him, if there is something that can’t be handled, don’t be brave, and the most important thing is to protect yourself.”

After all, Su Changqing didn't want Su Yu to go to Qianzhou.

It's just that Su Yu strongly demanded, and Su Changqing was helpless.

In Wenyuan Pavilion, a group of officials are sent out, and according to the old practice, a farewell banquet will be held.

The name of the farewell banquet is also called Pengcheng Banquet, which means Pengcheng Wanli.

The Pengcheng Banquet is held at the largest restaurant in the imperial capital, Penglai Pavilion. Every time there is a banquet, the Penglai Pavilion will be closed for the day and only serve the Pengcheng Banquet.

As for celebrities in the literary world in Kyoto, many people will come to see them off, making a lot of stories.

A grand banquet is a grand event in Wenyuan Pavilion.

After these people go out, each other is their future relationship in the officialdom.

Su Yu was among them.

At this time, Su Yu was in a good mood, sitting in the hall in a plain robe.

For him, it was finally time to break free from Su Changqing's wings.

From childhood to adulthood, what he heard the most was that this is the second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

He won the first prize, others would say that if his father hadn't been the prime minister, the top prize might not have been his.

No matter how hard he tried, as long as he was talked about, he would never be able to leave Su Changqing.

After today, he left the capital and traveled thousands of miles to the impoverished land of Qianzhou, where he was finally able to show what he had learned.

Thinking of this, Su Yu's eyes were full of excitement.

At the banquet, many children of the rich and powerful were also present.

The old Fei Chi of Wenyuan Pavilion presided over the banquet. He raised his glass high and said with a rosy face: "Everyone, today's Pengcheng Banquet is another grand event in Wenyuan Pavilion. On the political side, make a contribution to my great week!"

Everyone raised their glasses and drank together.

At this time, Su Wen's carriage also arrived outside the restaurant, Zhao Jin looked at Su Wen, and said in a low voice: "Young master, we don't have invitations, so I'm afraid it's not easy to get in."

Su Wen smiled slightly and said, "Just wait here."

He just came to see Su Yu off, he didn't have to go in.

If Su Changqing hadn't said it too late and time was tight, he wouldn't need to come here.

After Su Wen finished speaking, he adjusted his breath in the carriage.

In fact, Su Wen is quite diligent. The emotional value of the system can improve the progress of martial arts, but it can't directly improve the cultivation level, so Su Wen never relaxes in his own cultivation.

In the restaurant, after everyone drank together, the banquet began.

Everyone talked about it, talking about ambassadors from all over the world.

Someone among them said: "Everyone can know that today in the court, His Majesty proposed to re-establish the Secret Shadow Guard. All the officials opposed it, and only Prime Minister Su agreed!"

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused a heated discussion.

A young man said: "President Su's actions this time really make people disagree. What kind of tiger and wolf department is the Secret Shadow Guard? How many loyal and righteous people were persecuted in the past? It was abolished through the efforts of many ancestors. How can it be re-established? As ministers, how can we be so shameless? Your Majesty makes a mistake, so he should speak out righteously and use death as an admonition. I really disdain Prime Minister Su for being so flattering!"

"Hehe, who doesn't know Prime Minister Su's style? His Majesty always says what he agrees with. How can he offend His Majesty?"

"That's right. If it wasn't for this, how could Su Changqing have been able to hold on for many years?"

There was a lot of discussion in the field, the young people had a passion for it, and there was a lot of disdain for Su Changqing in their tone.

Su Yu frowned. He didn't like people saying that he was Su Changqing's son, but the same didn't mean he liked hearing bad things about Su Changqing.

Su Yu couldn't help but said: "What are you talking about? Prime Minister Su is the Prime Minister of a country, and there are reasons for everything he thinks and thinks. His Majesty must have reasons for re-establishing the Secret Shadow Guard. You don't know the reason, how can you do it?" Can you tell me about my father?"

As soon as Su Yu said that, everyone immediately remembered that this was Su Changqing's second son.

Many people shut their mouths, but some didn't care.

For example, the young man who spoke just now is Zhuang Qingbei, the son of Zhuang Yi, the servant of the household department. He is a member of Wu Qiuhan's lineage. He is also influenced by his father, and he is already dissatisfied with Su Changqing.

Seeing Su Yu, he was not afraid, and said: "Hey, it turns out that he is the son of Prime Minister Su. Brother Su is so talented, and he is a leader in Wenyuan Pavilion. I admire you, but I am just talking about the matter, the secret shadow guard. It has long been concluded that the harm to the country outweighs the benefits, I remember that Brother Su also thought the same way during the Wenyuan Pavilion debate before? Could it be that Brother Su's position will change if he becomes Prime Minister Su?"

This is true. Wenyuan Pavilion often holds some debate competitions to debate the pros and cons of various policies. At that time, the debate topic Su Yu got was whether the abolition of the Secret Shadow Guard was good or bad. He was the affirmative at that time.

This is not bad. We often hold some debate competitions in Wenyuan Pavilion to debate the pros and cons of various policies.
