Since the failure of the war in southwestern border, Zhao Jingting would come to the capital city to ask for pension for the families of those dead soldiers . It had been the third time . Emperor hated to hear of the failure of the war . He got furious once when officers of the Ministry of War mentioned pension . Then both the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of War avoided mentioning anything about it .

Lu Zhishan turned the pages of the book in his hand and said, “It’s still the spring festival and the capital city looks so peaceful now . Emperor dislikes to see anything wrong at this time . Even those officers will choose good news to report these days . It was obvious that General Zhao would run into a great trouble . ”

“It will be New Year’s Eve tomorrow . The imperial court session will stop and all officers will have a vocation for fifteen days . General Zhao can only wait and then try to report again . ” Du Heng couldn’t help sighing .

Lu Zhishan simply replied in a low voice, “We will gave Tubo and Siam two hundred thousand taels of silver on the second day of the second lunar year . Emperor will get more reluctant to see him . ”

Hearing his words, Du Heng’s face was gradually filled with rage . “Seventy thousand soldiers died in the war at the southeast border . How could the imperial court act as nothing happened? How can those soldiers’ parents, wives and children make a living without any help? Emperor’s behaviour really let his people down . Who will be willing to go to the battlefield to kill our enemies and protect our country then?!”

Lu Zhishan didn’t answer his question . He took one sip of the tea, and then he looked up and said to Du Heng, “Tell Xie Lun that he can stop collecting information from now on when he comes back . ”

“Okay . I’ll keep it in my mind,” responded Du Heng reluctantly .

Xie Lun came back pretty early today . Lu Zhishan just finished a bath and got dressed when Xie Lun hurried to Marquess Mansion and directly entered his sleeping chamber .

“Did you just say that General Zhao refused to see me?” questioned Lu Zhishan, knitting his eyebrows .

“Yes . General Zhao knows that you are not in a good condition now, so he is not willing to see you . He is afraid that emperor will get to know it and punish you,” uttered Xie Lun .

Lu Zhishan sighed and then kept his words . “I know he cares about me so much . But he has been working with me for more than ten years . Isn’t it so intentional to avoid meeting me for three years? Why not just come to visit me casually?”

“The Ministry of Finance has given an order to transfer General Zhao to the capital city and do some work else . So General Zhao will stay here these days . You will definitely get a chance to see him one day, my highness . ” Xie Lun added .

“The finance minister is Chang Yingteng, right? I remember that the Chang family has gotten along well with the Zhao family for generations . Minister Chang watched him grow up . How could Minister Chang suddenly make such an order to transfer him?” asked Lu Zhishan, frowning .

Xie Lun couldn’t help sighing and answered, “Minister Chang was sick half a month ago . Now a.s.sistant Minister Li is in charge of all the business of Finance Ministry . ”

“Li Xu? Concubine Li’s elder brother?” asked Lu Zhishan, keeping his eyebrows knitted .

“Yes,” answered Xie Lun quickly, “Concubine Li always has a good relations.h.i.+p with Concubine Wan . It should be Concubine Wan and the third prince’s idea to transfer General Zhao from southwest to some places else . By the way, empress should have joined them . ”

Empress’s brother Xu Deliang was the minister of the War Ministry, and Concubine Wan’s brother Wan Yaojie was the minister of the Finance Ministry .

“I’m afraid that not only the finance and war ministers, but also the other officers would not like to see General Zhao come back to the southwest border . ”
