Chapter 2697 The word Gui rolls around the door and becomes a trend
"This is not entirely true. Ziying was promoted from the imperial censor of Youdu to the cabinet minister, so what can we say?" He Fengsheng disagreed.
"Yes, that doesn't break the precedent?" Fan Jingwen also added, "If Duke Liu Ji wants our support, he must give us enough support. Although the Minister of Commerce is not a particularly important position, But after all, you have stepped onto the level of a second-rank official. After working for a year or two, you can also transfer to other departments."
"The Ministry of Commerce is not simple now. Maritime trade is increasingly prosperous, and the Yangzhou Stock Exchange is prosperous. It is also closely related to the industrial and commercial forces. It may not be inferior to the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Justice." Pan Ruzhen shook his head, "I think the Ministry of Commerce is a place for cultivating and training talents. It’s a good place, and if we run a good business, it can also become our base.”
Pan Ruzhen’s words also made everyone nod.
Ministries such as the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry have intertwined internal forces. It is very difficult for juniors to intervene. On the contrary, in newly established ministries such as the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Agriculture, the relationships are not that complicated, so they are very suitable. Go take a seat.
"Let's not talk so far. If there is an opportunity, I will naturally fight for it, but now we can all determine the direction, that is to say, we are willing to cooperate with Liuji Gong..." Feng Ziying looked around the crowd and saw Everyone nodded, confirming this goal.
************
"Ziying, what's going on?!" Qiao Yingjia was furious, his beard trembled with shock and anger, his fingers trembled, and his eyes were burning as he stared at Feng Ziying: "Don't tell me you know nothing!"
Feng Ziying rubbed her temples helplessly and motioned for Qiao Yingjia to sit down first, "Ru Jungong, if I want to say I don't know, you won't believe it, but I know it no earlier than you. He Zhisheng seems to have misunderstood the relationship between us and Liu Ji Gong." relationship, so he intentionally or unintentionally ignored some of Liu Ji Gong’s actions, or he thought it was a tacit understanding between Liu Ji Gong and us.”
Qiao Yingjia didn't seem to believe it, "But where is Feng Ziyi?"
"Feng Ziyi has been in Jiangnan for more than two months and almost three months. She is not in Beijing. This is also an oversight on my part. I am worried that the Japanese will reduce the pressure on their domestic army by causing trouble in Jiangnan. Tokugawa Hidetada is still not as good as his father. Prestige cannot suppress their local reputation." Feng Ziying explained.
After Qiao Yingjia was stunned for a moment, he also remembered that Feng Ziyi had indeed been missing in Beijing for a long time and had gone to Jiangnan.
"How do you think you should deal with it now? Are you going to let it go?" Qiao Yingjia began to calm down: "What does he want to do?"
The previous anger was because this sudden change actually bypassed him, a cabinet minister, which made him both frightened and uneasy.
If Gu Bingqian could actually use such a method, it would be too shocking. People like him would underestimate the other party too much.
But he was more worried that Feng Ziying would directly cooperate with the other party and throw him away, hiding it from him. That would be even more terrifying, which would mean that the Northland scholars might fall into division.
Qiao Yingjia's face turned pale, and he immediately reacted and said suddenly: "He wants to adjust the cabinet?"
"If not, why would he take such a risky move? Why don't we all discuss it?" Feng Ziying spread her hands helplessly, "It must be something that even our cabinet cannot discuss, so he wants to push Yi Chu Yi Emperor to take action. .”
"Huh, Yi Chu Yi Di. Is he so sure?" Qiao Yingjia was furious, "Huang Ruliang is not a dead person, there is also Ye Fang..."
"There is no need to mention Ye Fang. Mrs. Ye Xianggao passed away. He was hit hard and has returned to Fujian. I guess Fang Congzhe should have a deal with Liu Ji Gong." Feng Ziying said calmly: "If not, Liu Ji Gong will do it again." How could you be so bold?"
"Where is Dongxian (Guan Yingzhen)..." Qiao Yingjia was shaken and said hesitantly.
"Dong Xian Gong and Liu Ji Gong will definitely give him an explanation. We can't know the specific details, but we can't hide it from others for long. We will eventually find out." Feng Ziying seemed very calm.
"I'm afraid tomorrow will not give up easily." Qiao Yingjia said thoughtfully: "He has not been idle in the past two years, and he also has a group of people who support him."
"Ru Jungong, I'm afraid you are mistaken." Feng Ziying shook her head, "There are complex factions among the Jiangnan gentry. After Tang Binyin and Miao Changqi were expelled from the court, the group of people who supported them lost their backbone and were in panic all day long. Now Most of them were quietly collected by Liu Ji Gong, and Liu Ji Gong himself had a group of people. In addition, Jiangnan has changed a lot in recent years. Ming Qi Gong used to be in the household department, which was pretty good, but the household department is now Zi Shu. Brother is in charge, his influence has declined, and some of his ideas are still limited to the existing household structure, blindly focusing on Jiangnan land tax, and still have old views on emerging industries such as industrial and commercial tax and Yangzhou Stock Exchange. Some Jiangnan The gentry and him are already inseparable from each other,..."
Qiao Yingjia was quite surprised, "How do you know so much?"
"Zixun (Xu Xie) came to my place. He is very troubled now. He knows that times are changing and the situation is changing, but Ming Qi Gong still holds the old concept unchanged, but he **** with Ming Qi Gong early. It’s decided, so I’m very anxious and worried,…”
Xu Xie has been to Feng Ziying's place several times. Of course, he didn't come for no reason. Instead, he felt that Feng Ziying's influence on the Jiangnan gentry was growing, and it had threatened them, the authentic Jiangnan native scholars.
Especially those gentry who benefited from the industrial and commercial industries, their impressions of Feng Ziying have transcended geographical restrictions. The Yangzhou salt merchants have become Feng Ziying's strongest supporters because the Yangzhou Stock Exchange gave them the capital of these Yangzhou salt merchants. The best place made them stand firmly on Feng Ziying's side.
It was because he felt this change of influence, while Huang Ruliang was still obsessed with his fixed thinking, that Xu Xie realized that maybe he should really consider changing his family.
He and Feng Ziying had always had a good relationship in the academy. However, after joining the officialdom, they parted ways due to their geographical background and being favored by Ye Xianggao and Huang Ruliang. But now Huang Ruliang's ideas are increasingly unsuitable for the new situation, so Xu Xie also You need to consider your future.
"How do you explain it tomorrow?" Qiao Yingjia and Huang Ruliang have a very ordinary relationship, but he knows that Feng Ziying and Huang Ruliang have always had a good relationship.
"Times are moving forward, and we cannot stop where we are. Liu Ji Gong was originally determined by Qi Shi, but now their relationship is too bad. It is no wonder that Liu Ji Gong looks for another change..." Feng Ziying sighed.
