Tang Ke was practically the primary implementer of the Song Dynasty's commercial reforms. He made invaluable contributions to the reforms over the past ten years and has not yet been implicated in any corruption cases involving Xu Churen.

In terms of both prestige and political achievements, it should be Tang Ke.

Moreover, only Tang Ke could handle this huge mess.

Almost everyone thought that the position of Grand Chancellor was rightfully Tang Ke's.

But the appointment was made quickly; the new Grand Chancellor was not Tang Ke, but the young Minister of the Navy, Yu Yunwen.

How old is Yu Yunwen this year?

Only twenty-seven years old!

A 27-year-old imperial prime minister will take over Xu Churen's responsibilities and take charge of the administration of the Song Dynasty.

This country has the largest territory in the world.

The customs of this country are diverse.

This country has the largest population in the world.

The Song Dynasty's trade was still growing rapidly, and its penetration into foreign countries was like a hungry wolf's thirst for a sheepfold.

Countless merchants bared their fangs, ready to tear open flesh and blood.

Most of the rules are being broken down and then brutally reshaped.

Torn apart by contradictions, growing amidst bloodshed.

And all of this will be handed over to a 27-year-old young man.

This was a power transfer that will be recorded in history.

Everyone was shocked by the emperor's decision and could not fathom the emperor's intentions deep within the palace.

In the eyes of strategists, this was the worst move ever.

Reckless, impulsive, and disregards rules and regulations.

Removing the prime minister hastily when the marshal has just passed away and morale at the front is low will inevitably cause internal turmoil.

If there are internal and external troubles, the excellent situation may collapse in an instant.
