Chapter 2356 Gui Zijuan people are castrated and the wind is gradually rising
Shen Zizheng left, and Shen Yixiu was in a good mood. He accompanied her husband for a walk in the back garden, and Qingwen followed behind.
The afternoon sun is scattered in the back garden, casting mottled shadows. The capital city in May is already a bit warm. Looking around, the vegetation is lush and green.
"This side is still smaller, and there is a lack of water, so it can't be compared with that side." Before her daughter woke up from her nap, Shen Yixiu took her husband's arm and rested her head on his shoulder affectionately.
Logically speaking, this kind of behavior is not allowed and inappropriate in this era, even for a couple, but this is in the backyard, there are only two people, so naturally no one will spoil the fun. Qingwen is very envious of Shen Yixiu's boldness.
"Well, hurry up and move there as soon as possible. It's going to get hotter now. There's Qinfang Creek over there, and the water surface is connected to the original east side. It's much bigger. The heat is gone. It's perfect to cool off at night. Yes." Feng Ziying said with a smile: "You have also gone to see it, have you chosen a place to live?"
“I’m not too particular about this, but I heard that my wife is not willing to go there?” Shen Yixiu asked.
"Well, mother is used to this place. Look, it's up to her if she wants to stay here. But we have to run here often. I'll give you some advice." Feng Ziying was helpless that her mother was unwilling to move here.
"My wife is getting older and misses the past, but the environment there is much more spacious. She will definitely live there for a long time in the future, so she will have to move there sooner or later." Shen Yixiu nodded, "We have a new kid in our house. In addition, there are more and more servants, so it is really too crowded here, and the two sisters Baochai and Daiyu are also familiar with it, so it couldn't be better."
"They all have their own old residences, Baochai's Hengwu Garden, Daiyu's Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Yingchun's Zhujin Tower, Xiuyan's Luxueguang, Miaoyu's Zhuocui'an. You can live in Daoxiang Village or Yihongyuan, Just change the name then. You can also live in Doufengxuan, Ningxixuan and Tianxiang Building in Dongfu. It's very comfortable." Feng Ziying didn't care, "Of course the main residence is still in the middle, and the name of the provincial villa will definitely not be used. , it turns out it was said to be called Heavenly Immortal Treasure Realm, but that’s not appropriate either. I think the name Weiwei Grand View is pretty good too.”
"Ms. Gong, you mean to use 'Weiwei Grand View' as the name of the original provincial villa?" Shen Yixiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and after tasting it, he thought it was quite appropriate, "Well, it's quite interesting. Originally, the whole garden was called Grand View Garden, and now the building in the center is The community is called Weiwei Grand View, which is quite satisfactory."
"Although the three bedrooms belong to each family, from the perspective of a husband, they are one family, so it is like a family if the three bedrooms live in it. Wanjun, you will live in the Daguan Tower in the middle, Baochai and Dai Yu is divided into Zhujin Pavilion and Hanfang Pavilion on the east and west wings. Everyone else also has their own arrangements. I asked Yuanyang, Ping'er and Jin Chuan'er to go and see them. They were roughly the same. I also asked for their opinions, and they all agreed. satisfy."
Moving into Daguanyuan is a big deal. It means that the women in the three-bedroom house will live together, unlike here where they live in separate houses.
The Grand View Garden is now divided into two levels. The first level is the original provincial villa, where all the girls can be allocated to a building, which is regarded as the main house. It’s up to women to choose where to live. In summer, they would definitely rather live in a separate house, but in winter, it might be more lively to live in the main house.
"As long as I am satisfied, I think everyone is happy to live together. As I said, although it is a third house, it is actually one family. The children are of my blood. From a patriarchal perspective, they belong to each house, but from Emotionally speaking, they are biological brothers and sisters."
Feng Ziying was very happy to hear what Shen Yixiu said was reasonable and reasonable. Feng Ziying was very happy to hear it. With such an attitude as a good wife, she would have fewer things to do in the back house in the future. He was most at ease.
Qingwen was listening to the conversation behind the two of them, and she admired her mistress in her heart. She spoke grandly and grandly, and everyone must feel that her mistress was magnanimous. No matter what Miss Bao and Miss Lin did, they were all at a disadvantage.
************
“The Emperor passed away? When?” Feng Ziying asked while changing her clothes.
"It should be Shenshi." Wang Wenyan continued: "I asked the messenger, but he was vague. He only said that as soon as the cabinet received the news, it would immediately summon the important ministers to the palace, and also ask the Lord to propose a palace ban."
"Who is guarding the palace today?" Feng Ziying thought for a while, "Is it the flag-bearer Xu Chao?"
"It should be." Wang Wenyan nodded, "The death of the Supreme Emperor should not be serious. There have been warnings from the Renshou Palace. The Supreme Emperor has been unconscious for the past two days, and he has not been able to get enough water and rice. That's about it."
"It's almost done." Feng Ziying sighed softly. The departure of the Supreme Emperor would make room for the new Supreme Emperor, and Emperor Yonglong could take the throne as the new Supreme Emperor.
Before Feng Ziying rushed to Renshou Palace, she saw Zhang Jin and Xu Chao, who were fully armed at the palace gate.
Evidently he was also aware of the situation. There were many soldiers standing at the palace gate, and both Zhang Jin and Xu Chao were personally stationed at the palace gate.
After some pleasantries, Feng Ziying did not say anything else. She just asked the two of them to stabilize the situation and ensure a smooth transition.
The soldiers on the palace gate all come from the Gansu border army led by Xu Chao. Although they have changed into the uniforms of the standard-bearer guards, the wild and wild aura is coming to their faces, which is different from the lazy and warm-hearted or arrogant and fierce-looking standard-bearer guards in the past. The temperament is completely different.
Zhang Jin has a calm temperament, and when he met Xu Chao's bravery, he worked well together.
After Feng Ziying’s instructions, he rushed to Renshou Palace on foot.
All the ministers of the cabinet have arrived, as well as the ministers and ministers of other ministries, the censor of the capital procuratorate, and the deputy censor Qian and the censor of the capital. However, Zhang Huaichang, the minister of the Ministry of War, has not arrived.
He needs to sit with the Ministry of War in case of unexpected events.
Qiao Yingjia went to Xuncheng Procuratorate to take charge of the five-city army and horse division. In addition, Xiao Ruxun took charge of the capital camp. Sun Chengzong went to Tongzhou to take charge of the border troops outside the city. In this way, the situation was basically under control.
Although I don’t think the death of the Supreme Emperor will have much impact on the situation of the court, it is essential to prepare for the eventuality.
This has all been planned in advance. Once there are any changes, everyone will perform their duties and go to their respective positions to perform their duties, so it is considered orderly.
Feng Ziying's responsibility is to confine herself to the palace, and the Shangsanqinjun must be firmly under control.
Feng Ziying is still sure of this.
After saying hello to the cabinet ministers and meeting Gao Panlong, Huang Ruliang, Gu Bingqian, Cui Jingrong, Liu Yishui, Guan Yingzhen, Zhang Jingqiu and others, Feng Ziying was ready to leave.
A small minister of the Ministry of War has not qualified to perform under such a scene. The significance of his coming is to rest assured that the big brothers present, telling them that everything is in control.
Seeing that Feng Ziying was about to leave, Gu Bingqian came over and said, "Ziying, are you leaving?"
“Congratulations, Mr. Liuji.” Feng Ziying bowed her head with a smile: “I still have to visit a few palace gates.”
"Haha, it's still undecided. I'm afraid there are still objections over there." Gu Bingqian smiled and waved his hand.
Over there is Nanjing, or Prince Yizhong.
The cabinet recommended Gu Bingqian to join the cabinet to replace Li Tingji, who had retired from office. Originally Qi Yongtai wanted to recommend Guan Yingzhen to the cabinet, but Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe disagreed. In the end, Gu Bingqian joined the cabinet as a compromise, and Guan Yingzhen succeeded Gu Bingqian as the Ministry of Rites. Shangshu.
This is also an advance preparation of the cabinet.
As Prince Yoshitaka succeeds to the throne, the trend becomes more and more obvious, and the disputes between cabinet ministers will also become apparent.
Prince Yi Zhong proposed that Tang Binyin and Miao Changqi should enter the cabinet. Before Gu Bingqian entered the cabinet, if Tang Binyin and Miao Changqi entered the cabinet, it would mean that one of the six cabinet ministers, Prince Yi Zhong, would occupy two of them.
This is absolutely unacceptable to Ye Xianggao and Qi Yongtai, so they started the process of Gu Bingqian joining the cabinet and occupying a seat first.
As for the other one, let Tang Binyin and Miao Changqi fight dog-eat-dog.
The number of cabinet ministers in the Great Zhou Dynasty has never been clearly determined. The highest number was seven. That was during the reign of Emperor Guangde, but the time was very short. In less than a year, one person became an official. Most of the time Keep it around five.
"Is there any objection over there?" Feng Ziying smiled contemptuously, "Why do we need other people's consent for matters decided by our court? If we don't take the overall situation into consideration, the court may not even bother to talk to them, right?"
Feng Ziying’s unruly and domineering attitude also made Gu Bingqian smile.
Although this kid is already a third-grade official, he still has some martial habits.
It is said that because he fell in love with the Shi family's daughter, he actually instigated the Jia family to request that the marriage contract between the Shi family's daughter and Sun Shaozu be invalidated. Of course, Gu Bingqian would not fail to show his favor, and he readily let the Ministry of Rites rule to terminate the engagement.
"Ziying, it's okay for us to say this among ourselves. We still can't say this in front of outsiders." Gu Bingqian's eyes were soft, "We, the princes of the court, must consider the country, the country and the country. It may be slightly different from Prince Yi Zhong's personal ideas, which is also very important. It’s normal, but if he wants to succeed the great ruler and ascend to the throne of God, then he may need to abandon some personal emotions and consider the problem more from the eternal perspective of the great Zhou Dynasty.”
Feng Ziying smiled nonchalantly and said, "Mr. Liu Ji, we think so, but can that man be so generous?"
Gu Bingqian's face also became a little gloomy, "I believe he will, otherwise the cabinet will not agree to his return."
"I hope so, but it is also appropriate for the court to make adequate preparations earlier. I do think that this round of efforts to bridge differences may be short-lived. Once the situation stabilizes a little, maybe that person will understand that sometimes There are a lot of things that need to be given up." Feng Ziying's words were a bit more playful.
Gu Bingqian likes Feng Ziying's tone very much. In his opinion, this is the way civil servants govern the world. Why would Prince Yi Zhong come to pick up peaches on the ground? It would be too unfair and a humiliation for Emperor Yonglong to easily ascend to the throne without any dedication and effort.
