Chapter 2213 Guizijuan people are poor and have short ambitions, and dogs jump over the wall in a hurry
Zhang Ji remained silent. From the bottom of his heart, he was disgusted with what his mother said, but his reason told him that maybe his mother was right and she would not lie to him.
Seeing that her son was silent, Guo Qinyun also sighed. Her son was still too young and he might not be able to understand what she said so much, but she had to instill this kind of consciousness into her son, otherwise she would definitely suffer in the future.
“Ge’er, what’s that in your hand?” Guo Qinjun softened his tone, no longer struggling with the issue, and changed the topic.
"Mother, this is the "Northwest Times". It is the first newspaper run by Shaanxi, the first issue, and the following few days. The post newspaper also brought some news from Shaanxi. There are also Some current political commentaries were discussed today by Yang Wenruo as a policy argument, and his son also made a speech."
Zhang Ji's words made Guo Qinyun slightly interested, "Northwest Times? Is it the same as Today's News in the capital city and Jiangnan Times in Jinling?"
"Absolutely. I heard that after Xiao Feng went to Xi'an, the city of Xi'an also had a new atmosphere. That's why this first newspaper was created. It can also bring the situation in Shaanxi back to the capital and let the ordinary people know. No longer limited to the content in Di Bao, even the imperial court is more willing to learn about the real local situation through these local newspapers."
Zhang Ji's interest became high when he saw that the topic had been changed.
Guo Qinjun frowned, "Now the imperial court can only understand the local situation through these newspapers? What kind of etiquette is this? Zhifangsi, Xingrensi, and Long Jinwei, the censor sent by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, can't they Aren't you going to report it to Chaoli Jin?"
"Mother, that's not what my son meant. Local officials will definitely report important matters, but general social conditions and public opinion may not. Jia Huan and Fourth Brother also said that local officials like to report good news but not bad news, so the imperial court controls The situation is not accurate, and sometimes making judgments and decisions will inevitably be biased, so..."
Zhang Ji mentioned Zhang So again, which made Guo Qinjun feel angry again. Why was this picture everywhere, affecting and disturbing Zhang Er at any time? It would be troublesome if this continued. Feng Ziying had promised to have a good life. Support Ge'er, why is there no movement now?
Thinking of something, Guo Qinyun thought for a moment and then asked: "Jia Huan? But the concubine of the Jia family of Rongguo Gong? Aren't all the Jia family in jail? How can he still go to the academy?"
"The Jia family has all been released on bail. It is said that it was Xiao Fengxiu who provided the face guarantee. Dali Temple still has to give Xiao Fengxiu this little face because the case has been adjourned for trial and Jia Huan is not considered one of the legitimate sons. , so it is not so strict. There is Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan in the academy to say hello, of course there is no problem. Jia Huan failed to participate in the autumn competition last year, which made both Qi Shanchang and Wang Zhangyuan feel a little regretful, saying that if he had been there last year, If he can participate in the Autumn Imperial Examination, he will definitely be able to pass the examination. It is a pity that the crime delayed him, so he cannot participate in the Spring Imperial Examination now..."
Zhang Ji's tone was also full of regret. Jia Huan was good to him and they often spent time together. However, he was a bit serious and gloomy, but in terms of talent and hard work, he was ranked among the best in the academy.
"How influential is Feng Ziying in the academy?" Guo Qinyun felt that she still underestimated Feng Ziying's influence in Qingtan Academy. She could actually let a prisoner awaiting trial enter the academy to study, and even stay with the princes. This It's just a little too wild.
"Hey, I'm afraid mother doesn't know. If our academy was in Yonglong five years ago, it would be similar to Chongzheng and Tonghui academies. However, after the subject of Yonglong five years, it completely separated from other academies and became the Great Zhou Academy. This is the first academy, where Xiao Feng Xiuzuan has made the greatest contribution. Now, all the mountain chiefs and presidents of the Academy have high praise for Xiao Feng Xiuzuan. Of course, Xiao Feng Xiuzuan also respects the academy. Before leaving Beijing, he often came to the academy to guide his juniors. Now, the principal of our academy, Qi Shanshan, and Xiao Feng Xiuzuan are from the same hometown, so they have a close relationship..."
The current head of Qingtan Academy is Qi Shijiao, who is also a senior scholar in the North. He has great influence among Shandong scholars and has a close relationship with Qi Yongtai.
However, Qi Shijiao had been retiring at home before. He was also entrusted by Qi Yongtai to replace Zhou Yongchun and Bi Ziyan who were already serving as officials. He came out to serve as the head of Qingtan Academy and partnered with Shaanxi scholar Wang Zhicai to helm Qingtan Academy.
Feng Ziying also visited twice, and Qi Shijiao was also very optimistic about Feng Ziying.
"Well, I understand, Li'er, you must study hard in the academy and make more friends. These scholars will all take the scientific examinations and become officials in the future. They will be the pillars of the Zhou Dynasty in the future. If you become If they can ascend the throne, they will become your loyal ministers. If they form friendship at this time, they will also serve you to the death in the future..."
Guo Qinyun couldn't help but warn her son again. Even if she didn't like to hear it, she had to indoctrinate her son frequently.
"Mother, my son understands his mother's painstaking efforts, but for this kind of thing, mother should not be too demanding." Zhang Ji was silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "I heard that the wood that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. If it happens at this time, Being too pushy is not necessarily a good thing. Now that the father is still there, the ministers in the cabinet seem to have no intention of appointing someone as the crown prince. Although the fourth brother seems to be in a good position now, the eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother may not be willing to let it go. We are still It’s better to stay away from the limelight for a while and sit back and watch what happens.”
Guo Qinjun's eyes lit up, and these words made her particularly happy. This showed that her son was not the kind of person who did not seek to make progress at all.
“Ge’er, who taught you this?” Guo Qinjun didn’t believe that his son had figured it out by himself.
The son is only eleven years old, and it is impossible for him to have imagined this even if he is precocious. Moreover, the son has always been ignorant about this aspect before, and it is impossible for him to mature so quickly.
Zhang Ji hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly said: "It's Jia Huan."
"Jia Huan?!" Guo Qinyun was surprised: "That Jia Huan in Rongguo Mansion? What qualifications does he have to tell you this? Could it be that he was instigated by someone else?"
"Mother, don't think of everyone as bad people." Zhang Ji said with some displeasure: "Jia Huan and his son have always had a good relationship, and he was also recommended by Xiao Feng Xiuzhan, so his son is also Xiao Feng's. Did Feng Xiuzan recommend him? We have some connections. I also heard that Jia Huan’s cousin is Xiao Feng Xiuzan’s wife. With this kind of relationship, he wouldn’t deliberately do harm. Me?"
Guo Qinjun was blocked by the conversation. She didn't expect that Jia Huan's cousin was still Feng Ziying's wife. "Jia'er, have you ever thought about it. If Zhang Chi and Zhang So both served as supervisors, but you don't have this experience, if the cabinet in the future When it comes time to choose a king, you lack any qualifications, and you might lose the opportunity..."
Zhang Ji glanced at his mother and said, "I also talked to Jia Huan about it, but Jia Huan said that the concept of supervising the country sounds good, but the ministers in the cabinet did not let the eldest brother and the fourth brother go to court to discuss politics seriously. This is What kind of experience is this? Will the cabinet value this?"
This is reasonable, but it may not necessarily depend on how others view it.
“Ge’er, why are you still so familiar with Jia Huan?”
"Didn't my son say that? They all entered the academy through Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan. With this connection, we naturally become close to each other. Besides, other scholars in the academy are neither cold nor warm to me. Only Jia Huan is quite friendly, so he became familiar with him after going back and forth." Zhang Ji was quite dissatisfied with his mother's vigilance, "No one cares too much about his son's current situation, so mother doesn't need to worry too much."
After chatting for a few more words, Zhang Ji left. Guo Qinyun became more and more unable to sit still.
When Zhou Peisheng came in, Guo Qinjun asked immediately: "Did Feng Ziying win a great victory in Shaanxi?"
Zhou Peisheng was stunned for a moment before he realized: "That's right. He is worthy of being a general. After going to Shaanxi, he rectified the guards and mobilized the Guyuan Army. He defeated the rebels in a matter of seconds. All is lost, now I heard that the rebels were driven out of Shaanxi and crossed the Yellow River to harm Shanxi. Shanxi is now in crisis one after another."
“So, it’s possible that he will return to Beijing soon? He has been there for almost a year, right?” Guo Qinyun asked thoughtfully.
"I'm afraid it's not possible. The governor's term is generally three years, and his term is less than one year. Moreover, although the rebellion in Shaanxi has been basically put down, the disaster situation is still serious. If the problem of homeless people and hungry people cannot be solved, it is still possible to resurface." Zhou Peisheng continued. Shaking his head, "Maybe he can come back by the end of the year."
"The end of the year? I can't wait that long!" Guo Qinyun became impatient again and raised his voice: "Don't think that he can just ignore the matter of hiding in Shaanxi and going to Beijing. He must contribute to the matter of Ji'er supervising the country, Su Lingyao is moving around, I can't sit idly by, Peisheng, you go and bring him a message and let him think of a solution..."
Zhou Peisheng smiled bitterly. Concubine Quan had such a temper. She felt that she could do whatever she wanted with the other party's handle. She didn't even think about it being a double-edged sword. Can the handle be used?
It might not hurt Feng Ziying, but it could only hurt herself. Why couldn't she understand this?
Besides, this kind of thing between bed and bed only works if you and I agree. Now you want to bite him, where is the evidence?
Isn’t this self-inflicted?
But looking at Guo Qinjun's eyes blazing with anger, Zhou Peisheng couldn't say much. He could only nod and said perfunctorily: "Okay, I will bring a letter to Xiao Feng Xiu Zhuan. He is in court." Zhongye still has some connections, so even if he can’t come back, he should still be able to write a few letters.”
Hearing what Zhou Peisheng said, Guo Qinyun's mood improved slightly: "Peisheng, don't blame me for being anxious. The Emperor is seriously ill. Who knows what will happen tomorrow, so we have to prepare early."
