Chapter 2283 Gui Zijuan Responsibility, Skills, Means
If you recommend Ma Chengxun yourself, you must take on the responsibility of recommending him. This must be entered into documents and archived, and must be presented and noted during cabinet deliberations.
This is an unwritten rule within the imperial court.
Only important ministers have the right to recommend. Officials below the third rank do not have much say. For example, Yang Sichang can talk about the performance of a certain general and what his advantages are, but he cannot make direct suggestions for a certain position.
In a sense, the recommendation of an important minister in the Great Zhou Dynasty means a sponsorship, and they must bear joint and several liability for the sponsorship.
This is also the internal practice of various ministries of the imperial court.
If Ma Chengxun performs poorly and loses troops and ground in this battle, then he, the commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu, may soon be adjusted.
Maybe he will be left idle, or he may be sent to Guyuan or Gansu to become a deputy general soldier.
Similarly, Feng Ziying, the recommender, will also be implicated. The practice is that your right to speak will be greatly weakened in the next round of recommendations.
If Ma Chengxun performs well and makes great contributions, Feng Ziying's right to speak will also increase accordingly, and Zhang Huaichang, Sun Chengzong and the cabinet ministers will naturally pay more attention to it.
So while Ma Chengxun was still on the way from Shanxi to Xuanfu, Feng Ziying sent a letter to him. On the one hand, he introduced the general situation of Xuanfu Town, and on the other hand, he also put forward some of his own suggestions.
Of course it is just a suggestion. It is the responsibility of the general to make decisions on the spot, but Feng Ziying does not think that Ma Chengxun will ignore his opinions.
Seeing Feng Ziying's words so categorically, Yang Sichang hesitated for a moment: "Ziying, I'm worried that Ma Chengxun may not be able to control the people in Xuanfu Town when he first goes there. Niu Jizong will lead the old Xuanfu Town's main force to leave. The spirit of the town has been lost. The sources of the rebuilt Xuanfu town soldiers are too mixed and their combat effectiveness is not very good, but they have developed the habit of arrogant soldiers..."
When there were only two people around, Yang Sichang and Feng Ziying still called each other by names. Feng Ziying felt that Yang Sichang was really worried about problems in Xuanfu Town, so he stood still and said, "Wen Ruo, do you have any good suggestions?"
"How about asking the Shangsanqinjun and Jingying to deploy troops to reinforce Xuanfu?" Yang Sichang glanced at Feng Ziying.
Feng Ziying laughed, this guy had this idea.
Earlier, he proposed that the Ministry of War should strengthen its control over the troops in the capital city. This won the unanimous approval of Zhang Huaichang and Sun Chengzong, including Yang Sichang. It seems that they have long wanted to weaken Tian. The family had control over the military in the capital city, which was in the interests of the civil servants.
“We are weak, and water from afar cannot quench our thirst for nearness.” Feng Ziying looked at Yang Sichang and said with a smile: “And is the combat effectiveness of Jingying and Shangsanqinjun worthy of trust?”
"Whether it is worthy of trust or not can only be known on the battlefield. In the past two years, the Beijing camp was reorganized and rebuilt. Is there no change at all? If it is still like the old Beijing camp before, then what is the point of staying in the capital? Isn’t it a waste of the imperial court’s money?”
Of course Yang Sichang knew that Feng Ziying understood his intentions and didn't care.
"As well as the Shangsanqinjun, the investigation by Qiu Xiulong, the Imperial Lieutenant of Tiewengshan, pointed out that they all have various problems of dereliction of duty. Such a large army, the treatment is better than that of the border army, but even the emperor's If security cannot be maintained, what is the use of keeping such a pro-army force? Survival of the fittest will not allow for one-sidedness."
"Wen Ruo, if you rush the Jingying and Shangsanqin troops onto the battlefield, it will be self-defeating. It's not good for Ma Chengxun to use it, it's not good to not use it. If you don't pay attention, you will get yourself into trouble." Feng Ziying laughed.
"That's not good. Real gold is not afraid of fire. Jingying and Shangsanqinjun pushed it up and gave it a try. It also made them understand that military danger and war danger are not just words." Yang Sichang was firm: "As for Ma Chengxun There, write him a letter explaining the situation, and let him decide what to do with the reinforcements. The worst is to let the Jingying and Shangsanqin troops guard an 'inconsequential' fortress. Is that okay? Consumption consumption inspection With the effective strength of the Hal people, it can still be done to delay the progress of the enemy’s advance, right?”
Feng Ziying couldn't help but stretched out her hand and nodded, shaking her head repeatedly: "Wen Ruo, this can't be spread outside, otherwise the people in Jingying and the Shangsanqinjun will hate you to death, especially the Shangsanqinjun. They have been pampered and pampered for so many years, and their families and relatives are all here." There are probably tens of thousands of people in the city, and once your words fall into his ears, he will be so hated."
"Ziying, the Shangsanqinjun are all in panic now. The investigative report on the assassination of Emperor Tiewenshan Qiuyi that Long Jinwei submitted to the court has been on the desk for a long time. We can't let things end like this without knowing anything. Are you done?" Yang Sichang also frowned, "After all, we have to deal with this group of people, and offending them is inevitable."
"Okay, I understand. This is not your proposal, nor is it the proposal of the Ministry of War. It is the proposal of Nanjing and the clan, um, and the supervisor of the country. This is the most suitable." Feng Ziying said calmly.
Seeing that Yang Sichang understood immediately, Feng Ziying smiled and waved her hand, "Okay, I understand this matter. Master Shangshu and Brother Zhisheng should agree with the suggestions of Prince Yizhong, the clan, and Prince Gong."
Although he was delayed for a while by Yang Sichang, he was just at home when he returned to the house. This was the time to clock in for work. Even in the Ministry of War, that was all.
After arriving at the mansion, we first went to the eldest room and teased Tong Niang for a while. The little girl already spoke in a decent manner, and her voice when calling daddy was particularly clear. She could even recite a few Tang poems, which made Feng Ziying feel that there is a girl like this, husband What more could you ask for?
Then he went to Yingchun's house in the second room and looked at his son. However, his son seemed to be very sleepy. Even if his father came over, he would not show any respect and would sleep soundly.
Feng Ziying had just come out of the shower when she met Siqi. Her clothes were thin, and the pair of murder weapons dangling on her chest were very confusing, which made Feng Ziying play with her hands up and down. Unfortunately, she did not dare to easily wield the knife and kill him for three hundred rounds.
They will sleep in the third room at night, and today they want to take in Zicuckoo. Daiyu has been talking about this countless times, and if it continues, not only will Daiyu refuse to agree, but Zicuckoo will also be sad.
Looking at Si Qi's resentful eyes, Feng Ziying felt emotional in her heart.
There are too many women around me, and the main wife can still be guaranteed, but the concubines have actually gradually become more distant.
As for the maids, to put it bluntly, you are not qualified to compete for favor and love. It all depends on your mood and time.
Like ten days on the tenth day, one, four, seven, two, five, three, six, and nine, sharing three rooms, only on the tenth day can I have free time, but after such a day of relaxation, how can I still think about touching women?
Lying in the study by yourself, reading a book, wouldn’t it be nice to have a good sleep?
It has been more than a month since I returned to Beijing. I can calculate how many times I have rested in which room and which room, and I know all of them by heart.
Feng Ziying did the math. Shen Yi, the eldest brother, rested in the house for seven nights, and the second sister You and the third sister spent three nights. Qingwen picked up the leak. One night, the only thing left was lunch, and Yun Shang even had only two We made out during lunch break.
Second housing is more difficult.
She rested for six nights in Baochai's house, and only two nights in Baoqin's house. After all, she had been with him in Shaanxi for more than a year, and she rested in Yingchun house for four nights.
The third room is better. After all, Miaoyu and Xiuyan are both pregnant. They have one night each, and the rest of the nine nights are spent in Daiyu's room.
In addition, when I go to Tianjin and occasionally have to stay at the Ministry of War, the days are even tighter.
But in addition to these wives and concubines, there are also girls who have been taken over by him, such as Qingwen and Yun Shang from the eldest room, Siqi and Xiangling from the second room, and Ping'er and Jin Chuaner. Even if they can't go to bed at night, , then you can't just ignore it and ask. People's hearts are fleshy and emotional. These women are also living beings with emotions and desires. If they have been cold and unfamiliar for a long time, there will definitely be problems.
Like Jin Chuaner and Siqi, they have been apart for more than a year, and they have been looking forward to seeing each other for a long time. How can they not find a chance to comfort them? There are also Xiang Ling and Yun Shang. Honest people must be honest, and they cannot bully honest people.
After searching for ten nights, Feng Ziying hugged Ping'er and fell asleep. At least for the next period of time, Ping'er looked good and full of emotions. She always smiled and was in a happy mood when she met everyone. This is how men love women. Love, or the effect after emotional communication.
Being affectionate means that you have a place and weight in your heart, and you have her in your heart, so naturally you feel different and your mental state is also different.
Feng Ziying also knew that this situation could not last long. Even though she had good health skills, she could not withstand the sudden attack of so many women. She might still be able to persist in her twenties and thirties. When she entered middle age, she might not be able to talk about her relationship with Emperor Yonglong. Similarly, if you meditate and cultivate your nature, you won't be close to women, but at least you need to be more restrained.
Feng Ziying was a little frightened by someone like Siqi who was like a wolf and a tiger. Although he also coveted that plump body, he had to retreat when he thought of the consequences and his own responsibility at night.
Yingchun also saw Feng Ziying's dilemma and took the initiative to smooth things over: "Okay Si Qi, I have something to do tonight..."
"I know that Zicuckoo is going to take over the house." Siqi's words were full of sourness. "I want to keep my energy and cultivate new fields. I'm not afraid of the old land becoming barren..."
Both Feng Ziying and Yingchun were made to laugh by Si Qi's words of tiger and wolf. Yingchun, whose face was red with embarrassment, took the rare opportunity to hit Si Qi with her hand, "Sao Hoozi, why are you talking? There is no sense of propriety at all. No, I’m not afraid of others hearing the joke!”
