Chapter 2264 Gui Zi Juan’s leisure time and family fun, the news leaked
Xue Biao was so excited and active that he hurried back to Tianjin without even having time to eat lunch.
This kind of thing is an opportunity that Feng Ziying has fought for, but it depends more on his own performance. In particular, the Vehicle Driving Department of the Ministry of War and the Northern Army Corps will definitely be watching to see how he performs in this cross-sea transportation operation of tens of thousands of people. Professional enough, efficiency, flaws, and costs all require a comprehensive evaluation.
If it is done well, not only will the Ministry of War definitely cooperate with it in the future, but this kind of military operation will definitely be recognized by the court, and it will be given a status in the future, or if it has been done for a long time and the credit has been accumulated, it will be given a virtual title status. It's not impossible.
This also makes Baochai and Baoqin very happy. The Xue family is expected to cooperate with the imperial court. This is not a pure imperial-merchant cooperation, but to participate in the military operations of the imperial court. If you do well, Brother Tao will have a Identity, you will have an official status when you go out in the future.
Looking at the excited and joyful faces of Baochai and Baoqin, Feng Ziying also lamented that power and fame were like aphrodisiacs, and neither men nor women could escape their influence.
Look at Xue Biao and Baochai Baoqin. Xue Biao and Baoqin are just that. Even Baochai couldn't help but get excited, which shows its magic power.
The rest of the last day was immersed in the warm sunshine and the joy of leisure.
Shen Yixiu, Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu, as well as Sister You, Jia Yingchun, Miaoyu and Xiuyan, all accompanied Feng Ziying in the small garden to feel this rare leisure.
Everyone knows that after today, the husband will be engaged in heavy military duties. It is normal to leave early and come home late.
Even if you come back at night, you may have to meet guests, review official documents, or write manuscripts. In short, such relaxed and comfortable days are fleeting.
It was rare for Tong Niang to see so many aunts and aunts gathered together. They were as happy as fluttering butterflies, running from here to there, sometimes throwing themselves into her mother's arms, sometimes sitting on her father's lap, and sometimes holding her in her arms. Baochai and Daiyu's legs are intimate.
Baochai and Daiyu also like this little girl who is not indifferent to anyone. After all, she is also the eldest daughter of the Feng family. Her status is different. Even the maids also like Tongniang very much.
"A few days ago, before my husband came back, the third and fourth girls came over often. They also said that apart from playing mahjong and throwing pots and shuttlecocks, the house lacked a bit of book atmosphere. With so many people, why not set up a poetry club? This was originally said, but it was delayed because something happened to Rong Ning Jia's family. I was thinking that since my husband is back, we can also start this poetry club. We have a venue here. It’s a little smaller. After we move there in the future, we can choose a venue on Sanjue Street. When everyone has nothing to do, we can also gather together every three days or every five days to recite poems and paint. This will also allow the children to be able to There is a better environment and atmosphere to cultivate,…”
Shen Yixiu was the most in favor of this suggestion, so when Baochai and Daiyu mentioned it, he fully supported it.
Poetry and painting are her strengths, even calligraphy is not bad, and Xichun also likes these, so this kind of thing is perfect.
Finally, it was time to set up a poetry club. Feng Ziying thought in her heart that the poetry club in the book "Dream of Red Mansions" should have been established long ago. Who would have thought that if a butterfly like herself **** its wings, the whole situation will go in another direction, but Now I'm finally back on the main line.
You must know that there are many stories about this poetry club in the book "Dream of Red Mansions", and it has become an indispensable existence.
"If everyone is interested, then of course we should participate in such a good thing, right?" Feng Ziying said with a smile: "Three sisters, four sisters, and even Sister-in-law Zhu can be invited in. Anyway, one more person will make it more fun, Xiangling Don't you like to write poems the most? Well now, there are so many teachers here, you have to be dazzled to choose a teacher. People say that I, a little Feng Xiuzhuan, am not worthy of my reputation. Even my poems are a little bad. It seems that I can also be a teacher. All ladies, please be my apprentice."
The whole scene was filled with laughter and laughter, and the women covered their mouths and chuckled. It was really a first-class "special opportunity" to have Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan, who was well-known in the capital, become a disciple. Moreover, he was also his own husband. , this is really interesting.
Especially when I think about the fact that the Feng family may move to the original Rongning Street a few years ago, and that the two of us may continue to live in Qiu Shuangzhai and Nuanxiangwu in the future, the feeling becomes even more heartwarming and exciting.
Just when there was joy and laughter in the Feng Mansion, it was freezing cold in the palace, with frost hitting the ground.
"So, the Emperor has really changed his mind?" Mei Yuexi held her snow cheek in her hand, her tone seemed calm, but her slightly trembling temples and the beaded flowers on her golden steps revealed her mixed feelings at this time. A state of despair and anger.
"It's hard to say, but based on the old slave's guess, this possibility is probably very high." Dai Quan stood at one end extremely depressed and depressed. With his snow-white head, he looked more like a bald eagle, but his spirit remained the same. He's strong, but he's not in a good mood.
I originally thought that since the Supreme Emperor agreed to return to the palace to assist Concubine Lu, he had basically confirmed that King Lu would succeed Dabao in the future. As for King Shou being eliminated, King Fu and King Li performed mediocrely, and King Gong was too young, why? It seems that King Lu should be in charge, but who would have thought that the sudden news was that Nanjing was negotiating peace with the imperial court, and it was Renshou Palace who was pulling the strings.
This news was so shocking. Not only was Mei Yuexi caught off guard, but Dai Quan was also caught off guard. He didn't even understand what the emperor had planned. If he really wanted to promote Prince Yi Zhong to the throne, why should he come back? Isn't this deliberately tormenting and disgusting yourself?
But can I still go to Prince Yoshitaka now? Dai Quan didn't think he still had such a chance. There would definitely be many people who knew the news. I'm afraid many people had already taken refuge with Prince Yi Zhong.
"Why did the cabinet suddenly change its mind? Are they still afraid of the pressure from the Supreme Emperor? They shouldn't be." Mei Yuexi calmed down and said with some uncertainty, "In the last years of Yuan Xi, all the ministers in the cabinet were strong. If you don’t obey the Emperor’s will, why is the cabinet now so weak?”
"It shouldn't be entirely due to the pressure of the Supreme Emperor. At most, the Supreme Emperor just helped Prince Yi Zhong to make connections and pass on the message. I heard that the Ministry of Revenue is under great pressure now. There is no money in the internal treasury and the national treasury, and Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu are in the South with the Northwest Army. There is a stalemate in Zhili. Chen Jixian must have been bribed by Prince Yi Zhong. There are signs of betrayal. The court is worried about continuing the fight. Firstly, there is no money to support it. Secondly, it is worried about destroying Jiangnan. In addition, I am afraid it is also worried about being taken advantage of by foreign enemies. , Although the situation in Shaanxi is under control, there is chaos again in Shanxi, and Tumut people have joined in..."
It should be said that the information Dai Quan has is relatively comprehensive, and it basically covers the concerns and worries of the DPRK and China.
"Dai Quan, this is just a possibility, it has not been decided yet?" Mei Yuexi stood up reluctantly and walked around the hall, "Can't the Northwest Army annihilate the Niu and Sun armies in Jiangbei in one fell swoop? They were able to defeat Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu in Shandong, but why can't they defeat them in South Zhili now, or do they have other ideas?"
Dai Quan was a little surprised. Concubine Mei seemed to have a very deep understanding of the conflicts between civil servants and generals in the DPRK. She even knew that the imperial court was afraid of the Northwest Army and Feng Tang.
"The Northwest Army, which fought from Shandong to Southern Zhili, must have been a little tired. In addition, what the empress said is also possible. After all, the imperial court has always been somewhat taboo against warriors. Feng Tang himself had a great influence in the Northwest and Datong. If his son Feng Keng had not taken the path of civil servants, it would be impossible for him to serve as the governor of the Three Sides. However, the Northwest Army was built by him, and the Feng family in Datong Town has great potential power, so the cabinet should remove him from the Three Sides. Governor, it is reasonable to reduce his military power."
Dai Quan said carefully and carefully: "In addition, Chen Jixian's performance may also be a bit irritating to Feng Tang. He feels that he is loyal to the court, but he is not as good as Chen Jixian, a wallflower who is slipping on both sides and enjoys the benefits. The court has to deliberately please. This is true. Some are uncomfortable.”
Mei Yuexi walked around twice and was so upset that she didn’t know what to do for a while.
I have worked so hard to occupy the position of Zuo Jianguo, but now my efforts are all in vain. If Prince Yitada comes to have a younger brother, everything will be in vain, and his son will definitely become Prince Yitada in the future. The thorn in the side, including herself, even Mei Yuexi shuddered when she thought of this.
It can be said that there is no humane thing to say about the affairs of the Tian family. If it were not for the presence of the Supreme Emperor, Prince Yi Zhong would have been imprisoned by the Emperor and even poisoned with a glass of poisonous wine. Now it is Prince Yi Zhong who can spare his son. The biggest threat?
"Forget it, these have nothing to do with us, the key is what should we do?" Mei Yuexi gritted her teeth, and her face that could be called a sinking fish and a geese turned out to be a bit ferocious, "I can never accept this situation, no matter what No matter what means or method, Prince Yi Zhong and the cabinet cannot be negotiated. Dai Quan, you have to give me an idea. We are grasshoppers on a rope now. You should understand that when you come out of Renshou Palace, There’s no going back.”
Dai Quan sighed: "Of course I understand, but the cabinet did not reveal any information to the palace. It was only after the old slave tried hard to find out the details of how and what the cabinet and Nanjing discussed. I don’t even know the extent,…”
