Chapter 2241 Gui Zi Juan’s journey back to Beijing
The various movements outside and inside the side wall, and the feeling of echoing each other, is what Feng Ziying is most worried about.
He doesn't dare to go to Shanxi now. Firstly, the road is smoother in Henan. Secondly, it is indeed easier to take a boat in Jining. He can also take a look at the changes in the situation along the canal after the Jiangnan Rebellion.
The recovery of Shandong was the most important event in the eleventh year of Yonglong. It meant that the entire line north of Xuzhou was under the control of the imperial court. As long as Chen Jixian did not interfere with it, the canal transportation north of the Yangtze River could be unimpeded.
But now Chen Jixian's identity is not yet known. In fact, it is not that his identity is unknown. It is more that he wants to seek greater interests in the game between the court and Prince Yi Zhong. Feng Ziying even doubts whether his father is also involved.
Looking at the stalemate in the battle with Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu, Feng Ziying felt that it was hard to say.
Sometimes Feng Ziying herself is worried about what she should do if she faces inconsistent interests between the court and the Feng family after returning to Beijing.
There is no doubt that my father wants to keep the military power in his hands, but the court cannot tolerate this kind of situation where military men hold military power for a long time. As long as the situation is stable, the military men will definitely have their power reduced. Once the situation becomes tense, they will be restored or restored. Entrusting people with important tasks is the method that the imperial court has always used.
But now Chen Jixian seems to want to break this situation. His father may also be secretly supporting it. Even Wang Ziteng and others gradually intend to evolve into a status similar to the warlords of the feudal town. They may be involved in the future game between Prince Yi Zhong and the court. Come.
This is also the reason why this case is the most difficult for the court. Foreign enemies are trying to take a bite, while internal enemies are hoping to get the maximum benefit for themselves in the game with the court, including even my own father.
He will definitely find ways to fight for and protect the interests of the Feng family, but when faced with foreign enemies and internal worries that may subvert the entire system and even cause an uncontrollable situation, Feng Ziying feels that he still needs to think carefully about the overall situation and not end up in it. It would be a big joke to become a prisoner instead of being a powerful minister.
It's just that even Feng Ziying couldn't see clearly this complicated situation for a while, which was why he was eager to return to Beijing early.
Out of the center, all aspects of intelligence information seemed extremely slow and vague, making it difficult for him to make timely judgments.
Feng Ziying and his entourage met Baoqin and his entourage in Kaifeng.
From Kaifeng, you can walk along the south bank of the Yellow River and board a boat in Xuzhou to go north to Beijing. You can also cross the river from Yifeng or Kaocheng, pass through Caoxian, Chengwu, and Jinxiang, and board a boat in Dushan Lake or Jining to go north.
In the end, the group chose to cross the river from Yucheng, pass through Shanxian and Yutai, and board the boat near Guting Town.
Feng Ziying also carefully checked the situation along the route.
It should be said that the traces left by the war have been almost wiped out. This shows from another perspective that the battle between Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu and their father and Sun Chengzong in Shandong did not affect the local people too much, which is rare.
In other words, both sides still consider Shandong as one of their own, instead of burning, killing and looting like crazy when foreign enemies invade or like the civil unrest in Shaanxi and the White Lotus Rebellion. This should be the greatest blessing.
Boarding the ship from Guting Town and going all the way to Linqing was very smooth. The impact of the water transportation being interrupted for more than a year can no longer be seen. However, it can also be seen that more ships are traveling through the canal in Shandong. Between Huai'an and Xuzhou, the number of ships below Huai'an is much smaller.
Feng Ziying also asked some ship owners, and the information she received was that ships heading north from the Yangtze River to Huai'an, Yangzhou, need special approval from the Huaiyang Army before they can go north. This is probably a way for Chen Jixian to make money, and also to send people to Huai'an. The court demonstrated his control of the canal.
When visiting Linqing, it is inevitable to go back to the old house to visit. People like Baoqin Qingwen and others have never been there. Baoqin even went to Feng's ancestral hall to rectify his name.
It should be said that from the north to Shanxi, from Shanxi to Shaanxi, and then from Henan to Shandong back to Beijing, Feng Ziying traveled around the entire northern provinces in more than a year, although several provinces except Shaanxi were all on foot. It’s like watching flowers pass by, but you can still see and come into contact with some of the lowest-level situations. It should be said that the situation in Shandong is the best, followed by Beizhi, Henan again, and Shanshan and Shaanxi are the worst.
However, Shaanxi has experienced more than a year of rectification, and the situation will gradually improve. Now it seems that the worst thing is Shanxi, which everyone regards as a relatively prosperous place. If this chaotic situation is not controlled, Beizhi and Beizhi Several prefectures in Henan north of the Yellow River will inevitably be impacted and affected.
Stayed in the old house in Linqing for one night, it was a return to hometown in fine clothes.
There were many local gentry who came to visit, and Feng Ziying was overwhelmed with them, so she hurriedly boarded the ship early the next morning and left early.
After passing Linqing and returning north, the journey became even easier.
Qingwen's rapid breathing, accompanied by the gentle river breeze outside the window and the already darkening sky and river scenery, made Feng Ziying extremely comfortable.
Qingwen was shy and uncontrollable, but she didn't dare to reply. Who made her current situation so embarrassing?
The boat stayed at night, and accompanied the grandfather to be rounded by Baoqin.
Obviously, Xing Xiuyan and Miaoyu's pregnancy stimulated Baoqin too much. Thinking of returning to Beijing, she would have to face competition from Shen Yixiu, Baochai, Daiyu and even the Yingchun girls who had recovered. Tanchun and others, Baoqin became even more anxious, so he refused to let go of any opportunity along the way.
Throughout this journey, people like Qingwen have not been able to touch even the slightest bit.
When we took the boat from Guting Town, we chartered three boats. There were hundreds of people in the group plus the accompanying guards, so the three boats, one large and two small, could be filled.
Botou is the most famous town between Dongguang and Nanpi, and it is particularly lively. Baoqin and the others were rarely interested, so they went ashore with You Sanjie and others to play and shop.
This is the ripening season for Yali and Golden Jujube in Botou. Merchants traveling here transport Yali and Golden Jujube onto ships, and then go south and north to supply the capital and Linqing, Dongchangfu, and Jining along the canal. , Xuzhou and even Yangzhou.
"Master, I can't survive this. Please spare me." Qingwen panted and knelt on the side of the cabin near the window, holding her hands firmly on the window frame.
Feng Ziying's hands had already been inserted into both sides of the bra, just in time to play with the powder under the bellyband, and the back of the bra was also lifted up, and the trousers fell down between the ankles, and a pair of jade feet were pressed tightly, accompanied by the hot collision. One drop.
Through the slanted window lattice, you can vaguely see the lights that are still shining on the pier, which makes the man and woman who are closely attached to each other particularly infatuated.
"It's still early." Feng Ziying was not willing to let go. It was rare to see such a scenery. Baoqin and the others also went ashore and entered the city. Only she and Qingwen were left. As for Yuchuan'er, they could ignore it.
"I can't do it anymore. I really can't do it anymore. Why don't I take Yu Chuan'er away? I've been seeing her sarcastic words all day long. I've had enough of her. I don't know how refreshing she is." Girl, why did it become like this?" Qingwen gasped and turned her head, her starry eyes were drunk, "I always refuse to accept her, and I see that she is going back. I have been willing to do this for more than a year. Leaving it aside, there is also the young official who is also charming and imitates Miss Lin's way of holding Xi Shi's heart. Now that he has returned to Beijing, he has not been able to fulfill his wish. Isn't it going to be a joke? "
Feng Ziying said nothing, just enjoying herself.
Seeing that her lover remained silent behind her back and only focused on taking out his anger on herself, Qingwen didn't say much and could only persist...
As her lover picked her up and put her on the bed, changing her position and holding her feet, Qingwen felt happy and satisfied, but also a little hopeful and afraid...
After a while, with Qingwen's scream like a swan being shot, the sound on the bed slowly became silent. The two of them huddled together, and their breathing gradually subsided.
“Sir, it’s almost time. Miss Qin and the others should be back soon. If they see the servants like this, the good mood of buying pears and dates will be ruined.”
"When they go to buy white pears and golden jujubes, I will harvest pears and jujubes on you, right?" Feng Ziying weighed Qingwen's buttocks and pinched her chest, "These pears and jujubes But it’s much more precious than what Baoqin and the others bought..."
She was so amused by Feng Ziying's dirty words, but she seemed to be spitting: "I am not afraid of insulting Xiao Feng Xiuzan's reputation by saying these dirty words..."
“What do you mean by obscene words?” Feng Ziying said plausibly, “Pink **** half-covered by doubtful snow, red lips sipping cherries, are these poems also obscene?”
Unable to argue with her lover, Qingwen could only roll her eyes at Feng Ziying, pursed her lips and struggled to get up: "This slave is really going to get up, and Grandma Qin will get mad when she finds out. After a year has passed, all It’s time to go back, and I don’t want to cause any unpleasantness with her. It’s boring.”
Qingwen's words were also soft and yet hard, expressing her attitude.
Although Feng Ziying doesn't like Bao Qin's sour and jealous temper, this is also the privilege of being a nun.
Even girls like Qingwen and Ping'er can't say a few sour words, so this girl is considered too boring, so he won't deliberately care for anyone.
Whether you are a concubine or a married woman, you have to be able to withstand the pressure of a married woman and a concubine. As long as it is not excessive, this is a normal situation for a wealthy family.
The Feng family is already very fair. With Feng Ziying's protection, these girls are living a comfortable life. It's no wonder that people are willing to come to the Feng family to be maids.
Even the Datong girls who were brought to Shaanxi from Datong and brought back to Beijing from Shaanxi, as well as Aunt Mizhi whom Pan Ruzhen sent as a gift when he was in Yan'an Mansion, all felt that living in the Feng family was so happy.
