Chapter 1877 Ren Zijuan is bound to do his duty.
Han Xu took a deep look at Feng Ziying, but he was deeply touched in his heart.
He did not believe that Feng Ziying himself was not aware of the impact that his recent financial policy suggestions had on the court, and the impression he had established in the minds of other court officials.
If Feng Ziying was famous for her bravery in her early career, her lone request for help during the Linqing Civil War, and her single-handed approach to the grasslands to negotiate with enemy chiefs during the Ningxia Rebellion, thus winning the favor of the emperor and the princes of the court, then later in Yongping Various measures taken by the government and the defeat of the Three Tun Camps to thwart the invasion of the Inner Khalkhas gave the impression of having both civil and military interests.
As for the various performances in Qingtan Academy and Hanlin Academy, some people think that they are geniuses, and some people think that they are just sensationalism. There are mixed reviews. Of course, the folklore is that they are amazing. After all, the impact of the implementation of the Kaihai Strategy too big.
All in all, in the past few years, Feng Ziying has been like a meteor flying across the sky, dazzling and captivating countless people. Even in the court, there are many favorors and supporters, and of course there are also many people who are overly critical of her. Although he is young and dissatisfied with such a reputation, both the former and the latter must admit that Feng Ziying has considerable attainments in civil and military strategies, and is a rare new talent in the Zhou Dynasty's political circles for a hundred years.
That's all. The key is that Feng Ziying put forward several financial rescue strategies after arriving at Yongping Mansion, which not only gave the court a chance to breathe in its extremely distressed finances, but also won great favor from the military, because the financial relief was The main beneficiaries are these Jiubian military towns and even the Beijing camp, which have been broken by the imperial court and are thirsty.
The warriors were not all ignorant of the government affairs of the DPRK. They had thousands of soldiers under their command who needed food and pay, so they could not tolerate being unconcerned about every move of the DPRK.
The reason why Feng Tang was able to quickly establish his prestige in the northwest was also due to the financial support brought by Feng Ziying.
It can be said that it was Feng Ziying's repeated performance in financial strategies that made people including Ye Xianggao, Fang Congzhe, Huang Ruliang and others fearful.
Because it doesn’t matter how you perform in the local area, but being proficient in finance is a key factor in your future promotion to the position of prime minister.
Any prime minister who is not good at finance is not a qualified prime minister, and it is even difficult for him to stay in office for a long time, especially as the first assistant and the second assistant in charge of finance.
Feng Ziying's two sales were astonishing, which impressed the scholars in the north and south of the Yangtze River. Especially the huge profits were unexpected. In addition, he originally gave advice and suggestions in the strategy of opening up the sea. The tax revenue and franchise fees have benefited the court a lot, and the ministers in the court have increasingly recognized his talent in finance.
This had to make Ye Fang and Huang Ruliang a little anxious, so Huang Ruliang hurriedly promoted the bail pending trial for the criminals involved in this major treason case. In fact, many people in the court also knew that Feng Ziying was among them. There are many suggestions.
But in short, it is not Feng Ziying who proposes the promotion, and it can prevent Feng Ziying from continuing to score points here.
At this time, Han Xu brought it up, and Feng Ziying realized that she actually had such a great influence now. Even Ye Fang and Huang Ruliang, who was also her former boss, felt so afraid.
In Feng Ziying’s view, this is not a bad thing.
The more you try to limit your influence, the more you will be recognized and favored by Beidi scholars and Huguang scholars who are inclined to you. The fear and criticism of your "enemies" can only help increase your power.
"It doesn't matter whether you have thought about it or not. What matters is what others think?" Han Xu said with a smile: "Ziying, you are only twenty-one, right? The youngest fourth-rank official in the Zhou Dynasty, the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture is nothing more than that. Do you know how many people are expecting you to overturn the position of acting as the prefect and in charge of Shuntian government affairs? You single-handedly raised the momentum of the entire Yonglong five-year department, making the front and back One subject, that is, the two subjects of Yonglong's second year and Yonglong's eighth year, both appear bleak."
"Xiang Yun Gong, what you said is a bit exaggerated. Why is it so?" Feng Ziying felt that she couldn't bear it anymore.
"Ziying, don't deny it. Now everyone in the court feels that Yonglong's Jinshi in the fifth year is a bit of a golden sign. Lian Guoshi, Huang Zunsu and Yang Sichang are all favored, especially since Lian Guoshi has left your job. In the old way, everyone thinks that even if Lian Guoshi cannot become a fourth-rank official all at once, he will be able to steadily move from fourth-rank official in three to five years. You must know that at his current age, he will only be a third-rank official in three to five years. In his early teens, he entered the fourth rank. It is also a rare case in the Great Zhou Dynasty that only you, except for you, entered the fourth rank at the age of thirty."
Han Xu added: "And your classmate Han Jing in Qingtan Academy, a disciple of Tang Binyin, is now a member of the official department in the Nanjing Puppet Dynasty, and is also very popular in the Nanjing Puppet Dynasty. , doesn’t this also prove the excellence of your subject in Yonglong’s fifth year?”
"Xiang Yun Gong, when you say this, I feel speechless and a little frightened. What should I do? Desecrate myself in order to protect myself?" Feng Ziying laughed at herself half-jokingly.
"That's not the case. The imperial court can't tolerate you Feng Ziying. Although you are a little hesitant to perform well, the princes are still happy in general. It's just that your age is too embarrassing. "When Han Xu said this, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Han Xu hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded slowly: "It's okay to do this, but you have to pay attention to yourself, don't let the lie become the truth, and it will be self-defeating."
Feng Ziying couldn't help but shake her head when she left the Ministry of Justice. This Han Xu Han Yuchen was really a broad-minded person. No wonder he also played the role of chief assistant in history. He acted with few scruples and was eclectic.
With Han Xu's instructions, Feng Ziying no longer had any scruples, and went directly to Long Jinwei to imprison him without stopping. Since Zhang Chi wanted to cause trouble, he didn't have to give him much face anymore. .
As soon as he arrived at the imperial prison, Feng Ziyi came to greet him.
"Brother-in-law, I asked someone to go to your house. I was just about to report to you that someone from Prince Shou's house wanted to release Jia Li and the third **** bail. They came yesterday, but because of the reason they came, The housekeeper was not authorized and was scared off by the guaranteed price we offered, but he might have to do it today."
Feng Ziyi had long seen Feng Ziying's thoughts and was particularly concerned about this matter.
Yesterday afternoon when he was on duty, the steward of Prince Shou's Mansion came aggressively to ask for bail. Seeing that something was wrong, he immediately raised the price of bailing the two people to the highest level within his authority.
Because Li Wan was the daughter-in-law of Jia Zheng, and his father Li Shouzhong also served in the Nanjing Puppet Dynasty, he offered 15,000 taels of silver. When the three girls visited, they offered 10,000 taels of silver, which was higher than the original five thousand taels and three thousand taels. The price was doubled several times, which also angered the housekeeper of Prince Shou's Mansion. There was a fuss in the prison for a while. Feng Ziyi insisted on the price and refused to let go. The fuss lasted until evening, and finally the housekeeper returned angrily.
After Feng Ziyi told Feng Ziying about the situation, Feng Ziying breathed a sigh of relief. If Feng Ziyi hadn't been decisive and raised the deposit three times, the housekeeper of Prince Shou's Mansion who came with Zhang Chi's intention might have succeeded. .
Given Zhang Chi's impatient temper, it's really hard to say whether Li Wan and Tan Chun can be kept innocent if they really take them away.
"Zi Yi, I'll thank you for this." Feng Ziying said thoughtfully: "His Royal Highness, Shou Wang, seems to be deliberately trying to make things difficult for me. The lessons he has received from the second house of Rong Ning are not enough, and he wants to tease me. Do you really think I am a good person?"
Feng Ziyi saw that Feng Ziying was really angry, so she didn't dare to get angry.
Although he also felt that King Shou was a little unclear about current affairs. When had this happened? It would be unwise to offend a leader among scholars like Feng Ziying. But if Feng Ziying really went to war with His Highness King Shou regardless of it, it would be uneconomical. After all, It will have some impact on his career, but it's just for a few women, it's not worth it.
"Brother-in-law, don't worry too much about these things. If you want to provide a bondsman, you can do it now. But the deposit..." Feng Ziyi scratched his head.
"Can I still make things like this difficult for you?" Feng Ziying waved her hands indifferently, "Then let me guarantee that the three girls Jia Li, Jia Tanchun, and Jia Xichun will follow the rules you set..."
For Feng Ziying, although the bail price was raised to this price, which was unexpected, it was worth it to keep the innocence of the two women.
Although this amount was enough to buy hundreds of slaves, for the three convict women, it was just bail money.
Although the court did not explicitly say that the bail money would be confiscated, at the last step, Feng Ziying knew that given the current financial constraints of the court, she would not be able to leave much for herself, so she could always find various reasons to turn the bail money into A fine was then imposed as a condition for settling the case once and for all.
The release of Li Wan, Tan Chun and Xichun on bail also caused a sigh of relief throughout the prison.
For people like Jia Mu and Wang, they are worried about themselves, and at the same time they are especially happy that these three people are released on bail. After all, they can go out as many as they want, and if they can go out now, does it mean that they will also be able to go out in the future? Can you go out? At least there is still hope, no matter how slim this hope is.
When all the formalities were completed, Feng Ziying walked out of the prison gate with the three women who had been in prison for several months and were somewhat uncomfortable with the outside world. They met a group of people with gloomy faces.
“Wait!”
Do you really want to come here? Feng Ziying felt a little helpless, he really didn't want to be like this.
