Chapter 1549 Xin Zijuan Question Plan
Feng Ziying did not expect Jin Chuan'er's performance to be so outstanding and to leave such a deep impression on his two subordinates. He was having a pleasant chat with King Zhonghui at this time.
"I heard that the prince is going to be the governor of the capital?" Feng Ziying asked with a smile: "The emperor Qiu Xuan is about to come, but he has given such an important position to the prince. It can be said that he is sincere."
Although Feng Ziying thought that it would be best for the court to move Wang Ziteng out of Denglai Town. The Jiedushi of the Beijing Camp should be a position that could impress Wang Ziteng. In this way, even if Wang Ziteng returned to this position, after these two years of adjustments, , it is impossible for him to control the capital camp, and if he wants to run it smoothly, it will not work every two or three years. During these two years, the court can spend time in other aspects to solve the problem, but he also knows that Emperor Yonglong is afraid that I won't take this line.
Using King Zhonghui is a stopgap measure. Firstly, this position still has some influence. Secondly, King Zhonghui is also reliable. Thirdly, King Zhonghui can concentrate on using various bribery methods to compete with Chen Jixian for control of the Fifth Military Camp. Quan, after all, he is a genuine prince and the emperor's younger brother. This blood relationship still has some appeal. There will definitely be some generals who are not so proud of Chen Jixian's subordinates and are willing to choose another mountain to fight.
King Zhonghui was also shocked that such secret things were known to this boy. However, when he thought about it, although he was young, he was the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture. He ruled the entire capital city and was well-informed. He was not surprised. What's more, his father is also the governor of the three sides and has a deep foothold in the military.
Furthermore, many people in the Beijing camp benefited greatly from Feng Ziying. After redeeming people from the Inner Khalkha people, not to mention the middle and high-ranking military officers, there were still many middle- and low-level officers who re-entered the Beijing camp.
“Ziying, where did you hear this news?” King Zhonghui did not deny it and asked in a deep voice.
"Haha, how can I tell the prince if I know anything about it? Doesn't that mean that no one will talk to me about such things in the future?" Feng Ziying said with a smile: "The prince only says whether there is such a thing or not."
King Zhonghui hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Brother Huang did have this intention. Gu Ye told Brother Huang whether Brother Nine could take the position, but Brother Huang said that Gu was the most suitable, so it was difficult to recommend Gu Ye. .”
Why Emperor Yonglong chose King Zhonghui, who had been away from the government for many years, to serve as the seemingly symbolic envoy of the Beijing Camp, it really surprised many people.
Although King Zhonghui followed Emperor Yonglong before he ascended the throne, he did not have much ambition for power, so he disappeared from the court after Emperor Yonglong ascended the throne.
In contrast, King Zhongshun was much more active. Through his special status, he coordinated the relationship between the six cabinet ministries and Long Jinwei. He often expressed some opinions on behalf of Emperor Yonglong that were not convenient for Emperor Yonglong to speak out. This could also Leaving some leeway, it should be said that King Zhongshun did a pretty good job in this role-playing.
Feng Ziying smiled and said, "Then I would like to congratulate the prince first."
"Don't be too busy congratulating me. Although I also feel that the emperor's brother is trusting me, it's hard to recommend me, but I don't have much confidence in my heart, so from the bottom of my heart I am reluctant. This Jingying Jiedushi is in charge of the three major camps in name. , but Ziying, you also know that Gu has never led an army and has no connections in the army. Among the three major camps now, Qiu Shiben of Shenshu Camp was promoted by the emperor's brother. The leader of Shenji Camp is Qian Guozhong. …”
King Zhonghui paused and seemed to be considering his words, "Qian Guozhong was jointly recommended by Lu Song and Jiu Ge, and he is also Mei Fei's cousin..."
I see!
King Zhongshun and Long Jinwei were recommended by their families, and they were also Mei Fei’s cousin. No wonder Emperor Yonglong was so relieved, but there were also other flavors in it that made Feng Ziying thoughtful.
As far as he knew, the daughter of Qiu Shiben, the leader of Camp Shenshu, was promised to the legitimate son of Su Shengdu, and Su Shengdu was the cousin of Concubine Su and the current deputy commander-in-chief of Shanxi Town.
Although it is normal for military generals to marry intermarriage, the biological relationship between Su Shengdu and Concubine Su, coupled with the marriage between the daughter of the commander of Shenshu Camp and the Su family, may not help but make Emperor Yonglong a little worried. If Yonglong If the emperor really intended to choose the crown prince between Prince Fu and Prince Li, it would be fine. If not, he would have to give it more thought.
"Your Majesty, the emperor is about to be crown prince? Do you have a candidate?"
King Zhonghui shook his head like a rattle, "Don't ask me about this. This is a matter decided by the Holy Heart of the Emperor, and it is not the turn of outsiders to comment."
King Zhonghui would never dare or be willing to ask more about this kind of thing.
Feng Ziying actually got the news from King Zhongshun before. Maybe King Zhonghui came to ask about King Zhongshun. King Zhongshun probably had something to say that was difficult to clarify, so he came up with a shirk and blamed it on himself.
The relationship between Feng Ziying and King Zhonghui is far less close than that with King Zhongshun. He may not be able to do things that are superficial and profound, unless King Zhonghui can come up with a reasonable reason.
King Zhonghui was also stunned by Feng Ziying's half-truth, half-false and half-pretended rhetorical question.
Before, he complained to Ninth Brother (King Zhongshun), saying that he was confused but he had to be placed in the position of Jiedushi of the Beijing Camp. He didn't know what to do, and he didn't even understand the emperor's intention. He hoped that Ninth Brother would He could give some advice, but Ninth Brother just laughed and said nothing. In the end, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he asked him to come to Feng Ziying for advice.
King Zhonghui was not a fool. When King Zhongshun directed him to Feng Ziying, he had a vague feeling that the emperor felt that the situation in Beijing had changed, and he wanted to stabilize the situation in Beijing, especially when the emperor next month My brother is going to Qiubi Mountain in Tiewang Mountain. He will be there for a day or twenty. He needs someone who can stabilize the overall situation, but can he bear this responsibility?
King Zhonghui doesn’t think he has the ability. How can the situation in Beijing be stabilized? As a bare prince, even if he takes office as the governor of the capital, who will listen to him?
Ninth brother pushed himself to Feng Ziying, which once surprised King Zhonghui.
He didn’t have much friendship with Feng Ziying, but he also knew that Brother Jiu had an extremely close relationship with the Feng family. In addition to Haitong Yinzhuang tightly binding them together, Brother Jiu should also be behind Feng Tang’s appointment as governor of Jiliao.
In addition, Ninth Brother especially admired Feng Ziying and believed that Feng Ziying must be a person who could become a general or a prime minister or even go down in history. King Zhonghui remembered this very deeply. After several drinks, Ninth Brother sighed and said that if Feng Ziying had not been a scholar from Shilin, she would have been doomed. Taking the path of civil service, he was determined to give his beloved daughter to him.
According to the rules of the Zhou Dynasty, if you become a prince-in-law, you will not be able to advance in your official career. Therefore, any scholar who wants to make a difference in the court will never marry a member of the royal family. This is consistent with It was the same before the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, King Zhonghui also admitted that Feng Ziying was indeed an extraordinary person. He had heard the story of the Linqing Civil War, but he had some doubts that a twelve-year-old boy had such courage. He felt that there might be some bragging involved. The imperial examination High school is nothing. There are only a few top picks and second place picks in every subject during the week? Not to mention the second-level Jinshi and Shujishi.
But Feng Ziying dared to go out on the grassland alone and negotiate with the leader of the Tumut people alone. This was not something ordinary people could have the courage to do.
King Zhonghui also specifically verified this with Chai Ke and Yang He. It was indeed true, and he had to admire the fact that the tiger father had no dog son, or that Feng Tang might not be so courageous at this age, and later opened the sea The strategy was even more outrageous. The imperial brother sighed with emotion and praised it endlessly. Even the civil servants in the court praised it.
Later, Feng Ziying entered the Hanlin Academy, served as the co-president of Yongping Prefecture, defeated the Inner Khalkha people who defeated the Beijing camp, and finally intervened to redeem all the captured soldiers in the Beijing camp. He became the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture at the age of 18, becoming the first person in the world since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Before that, there had never been a fourth-grade official under the age of thirty in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
It was precisely because of this that after King Zhongshun pointed out this way, he hesitated and decided to come to ask for advice. On the one hand, he really wanted to understand the emperor's intentions, and on the other hand, he also wanted to take a look at the newly promoted Shuntian Mansion. Is Cheng as good as Brother Jiu said, is he worth making friends with, and is he worth investing in?
Now it seems that the newly promoted Shuntian Prefecture is not only experienced and profound, but also has an extremely sensitive sense of smell, and also has a very far-reaching vision. He just introduced Qian Guozhong as Mei Fei's cousin, and he realized that the emperor seemed to be interested. It is decided to be King Chulu, and the twists and turns here are not something that ordinary people can figure out, so that I dare not speak.
"Ziying, I'm not hiding it from you. Now that the emperor has asked me to serve as the governor of the Beijing camp, I am a little unsure and feel panicked. Although the emperor didn't say much, I know that there is some intention. I also asked I asked Ninth Brother, but Ninth Brother didn’t say anything clearly. He only said that you can clearly see the doorways here and can be trusted. I’m afraid you are the only one in the capital city. Others say this, but I don’t believe it, but Ninth Brother said, I believe it... "
Feng Ziying was surprised. What King Zhongshun said was too much, and it made her a little bit overwhelmed.
"Your Majesty's words are serious, and Prince Zhongshun is even more exaggerated. How can Ziying be worthy of such words?" Feng Ziying waved her hands repeatedly.
"Ziying, you don't need to be humble. I know you are worthy of it." King Zhonghui also waved his hand, "I am not a closed-minded person. I have heard about your reputation in the past two years, but you can win nine Brother praises you so much, Gu Ye knows that you have your own skills."
Feng Ziying was silent. He wanted to see what medicine King Zhonghui wanted to sell in his gourd.
King Zhonghui would not come to his door so abruptly because of what King Zhongshun said, and he also immediately revealed the secret that Qian Guozhong was Mei Fei's cousin. Feng Ziying believed that not many people knew this news, at least Wang Wenyan and Wu Yaoqing and the others failed to find out.
