Chapter 954 Ji Zijuan Huixian’s wife, Dai Chai’s rival
This kind of discussion on paper is actually of little significance to the real war. Several people have never participated in the war. Except for Feng Ziying, who experienced it personally during the Battle of Ningxia, the others are more from a strategic perspective. An analytical study.
However, Feng Ziying still hopes that they can have more discussions like this. Talking about military affairs on paper is better than baseless speculation. At least everyone can check and fill in the gaps through discussion. This is what the Ministry of War's Staff Division is supposed to do.
Feng Ziying helped them ask a lot of questions, especially how to plan in advance and how to coordinate the logistics and intelligence support. This kept everyone's mood maintained, even Ma Shiying, Song Shixiang and Xu Qixun, who were not very interested later. Got involved.
Today is the eighth year of Yonglong's scientific examination. Students who have some friendship with Feng Ziying came to see Feng Ziying off, because Feng Ziying will return to Yongping Mansion tomorrow.
After staying in the capital city for four days, I have met everyone who needs to be seen, talked about everything that needs to be talked about, and done everything that needs to be done. It is time to set off back to do business.
Several people had dinner at Feng Ziying's house at noon, and Feng Ziying felt that even the closeness of the relationship among these six people was not consistent.
For example, Sun Chuanting has a good relationship with Chen Qiyu, Chen Qiyu also has a close relationship with Fu Zonglong, while Ma Shiying has a relatively close relationship with Xu Qixun, and Song Shixiang is relatively familiar with Sun Chuanting and has a normal relationship with everyone else.
Feng Ziying was also slightly surprised that Ma Shiying could come.
He recommended Ma Shiying as the editor-in-chief of "Internal Reference" mainly to protect the status of "Internal Reference". A new subject who is excellent in all aspects but cannot be included in the editorial board of "Internal Reference" will be easily criticized and will be criticized. Seen as an injustice and a tendency to stick together in small groups.
Although it is an indisputable fact that small groups hold together everywhere, Feng Ziying does not want to show it too obviously. Feng Ziying hopes to maintain the basic fairness and justice.
However, Feng Ziying's recommendation is still regarded as recognition of Ma Shiying, and Ma Shiying is by no means ignorant of current affairs, and naturally he has to take the initiative to integrate into this group.
Although Feng Ziying is the leader of young scholars in the North, he does not exclude young scholars from other places. Xu Qixun of Jinke, Wu Zong and Fang Youdu of Shangke are all Jiangnan scholars, and Wang Yingxiong Jin of Shangke Fu Zonglong in the department and He Fengsheng in the upper department were both scholars from Southwest China and Huguang respectively.
This also prompted Ma Shiying to actively join and quickly integrate into the company.
After seeing off the group of classmates, Feng Ziying stood quietly in front of the window, staring out the window.
I have to say that compared with Rongguo Mansion, Feng Mansion still seems too shabby. There is no need to compare the Grand View Garden. Even the layout and structure of the old Rongguo Mansion can easily crush Feng Mansion. Well, crush Hulunhou Mansion alone. It is the scenery outside the window that makes people miss Rongguo Mansion, and even more miss the Grand View Garden.
This is the heritage of the old nobles. The second mansion of Rongning was not established in a day. It was initially built on the basis of a marquis mansion and a dilapidated courtyard in the former Ming Dynasty, and it continued to be added over the decades. After continuous repairs and improvements, the layout of Rongning Second Mansion reached its peak after the completion of the Grand View Garden.
"Mr. sir, you don't seem to be in a very high mood? Is there something wrong?" Logically speaking, Feng Ziying should be in a good mood when her classmates came to see her off, but Shen Yixiu could still feel the depression in Feng Ziying's heart.
"It stands to reason that I should be happy. Everyone can remember me and come to see me off. I can understand their feelings, but in my speech, I cannot help but mention that the current situation in the court is not optimistic."
Feng Ziying didn't want to talk to her pregnant wife about this. In the end, it would not solve the problem and would make her worried. However, his wife was such a smart person, and she had been exchanging letters with her father-in-law. In addition, her brother-in-law kept informing her, and some It worries her even more if you hide things.
"Which side is it? The Donglu on the father-in-law's side, or the Mongolian left wing?" Shen Yixiu was held by her husband around the waist, and the two of them stood leaning against the window. It was so cozy that even Qingwen and Yun Shang knew enough not to disturb them.
“There are all, but they are not the main ones, but the southwest.” Feng Ziying shook her head.
Shen Zizheng came to visit his sister two days ago. Of course, because his brother-in-law was back, he had to talk for a while.
Although he did not mention the war between the parties, he talked more about Shen Zizheng's past visits to Xuanda and Jizhen frontier fortresses. Feng Ziying suggested to him that he write more about the geography and landforms of the Northland border and his suggestions. "Internal Reference" can be based on the military Published in the geography category to encourage more people to understand and master the emerging discipline of geography.
Feng Ziying had already mentioned the introduction, value and significance of the subject of geography when she left the Hanlin Academy. She personally wrote a recommendation for this subject as the editor-in-chief for the last time, and made a rough classification of geography based on some of her own ideas. , including physical geography, military geography, agricultural geography, and commercial geography.
In her introduction, Feng Ziying especially focused on the geographical conditions of the southwest region and Jiubian, talked about the shortcomings of current maps, and talked about how the maps used by the merchants of the Zhou Dynasty in their daily business were better than those of the Ministry of War. Si was more detailed and talked about the various fragments of nautical maps collected by maritime merchants. The imperial court had never found the map files after Zheng He's voyages to the West in the former Ming Dynasty. They were hidden by Liu Daxia, the then Minister of War, and no one went there after that. I found it, because the Great Zhou Dynasty also retreated and adopted the tribute system.
He used very objective and sharp words to criticize the current lack of attention to the emerging discipline of geography. He suggested that the court should gradually include geography in the autumn and spring high school examinations. It does not require too much depth, but at least this concept must be understood. Even the north, south, east, and west, and the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty cannot be clearly distinguished.
This article also caused a lot of controversy after it was published in "Internal Reference".
The more mainstream view within the imperial court is that geography is indeed increasingly important, but it would be far-fetched to take part in the Qiu Wei and Spring Wei exams in one step. Scholars usually read classics, meanings and current affairs, and do not have many opportunities to travel outside. They are often those who Only wealthy scholars who failed the imperial examination had the opportunity to spend a lot of time traveling, so it would definitely not be appropriate to rush into the imperial examination.
Of course, Feng Ziying knew that this kind of thing could not be accomplished overnight. His purpose was to open an opening first so that the imperial court could have such an impression first, and then slowly figure it out in the future.
Since Shen Zizheng has some knowledge in this area, you might as well let him write a few more articles in "Internal Reference" to wave the flag and create influence.
“Southwest?” Shen Yixiu was slightly surprised, “Is it a dispute between Liutu?”
The news of Yang Kedong's defection has not spread. Yang Sichang may not have mentioned it to Shen Zizheng, or Shen Zizheng hasn't had time to understand it, or he may have learned about it but not told his sister.
"It has a certain relationship, but once it breaks out, it will be very serious. Now that all parties in the court are under tight pressure, they are stretched thin." Feng Ziying stroked his wife's hair and said softly: "Wan Jun, don't worry about it. Your first priority now is Take care of your child and take good care of your body, and give birth to the first child of our Feng family in a healthy and safe manner."
"But when I saw that my husband was in a bad mood, I also felt uncomfortable." Shen Yixiu showed a rare coquettishness and twisted his waist that was already a little pregnant.
"What should I do as a husband?" Feng Ziying also joked, "Wan Jun gave me a suggestion."
Shen Yixiu snuggled into her husband's arms and rolled her eyes, "Well, my husband is going back to Yongping Mansion tomorrow, why don't you go to Rongguo Mansion and have a look?"
Feng Ziying laughed.
When he went to meet Daiyu and Baochai, Feng Ziying didn't hide anything from Shen Yixiu, and he also knew that his wife was not the kind of sour and jealous, and he knew more clearly what kind of woman he liked, so Shen Yixiu held more weight in Feng Ziying's heart.
A woman who knows the importance of things, is smart and wise, will always be more respected by men than a woman who only knows how to serve people with sex.
“I’ve seen Sister Bao and Sister Lin before, and going there will only cause more trouble...” Feng Ziying smiled and shook her head.
"Sisters from the Xue family and sisters from the Lin family have certainly met, but what about other sisters? For example, the Xing family sister..." Shen Yixiu was amused, but it was also a semi-test.
“Xiuyan?” Feng Ziying was stunned, “Sister Xiuyan is a smart and beautiful woman, but my husband has no plans to take advantage of her...”
"Then who is your husband trying to trick?" Shen Yixiu said with a smile as bright as a flower, "Let me guess, sister Tanchun or sister Xiangyun?"
"Don't talk nonsense and ruin someone's reputation." Feng Ziying didn't care. Shen Yixiu wouldn't be so ignorant of the private conversations between the couple.
"Ms. sir, I can actually tell that whether it's sister Tanchun, sister Xiangyun, sister Xiuyan, or even sister Yingchun, I'm afraid they all have some affection for their husband. Well, maybe they themselves don't realize this, but if If you observe carefully, you will find that they really like and long to be with their husbands, even if they are just talking..."
Shen Yixiu had indeed observed that the girls did not actually have any special affairs with their husbands. As women, they still had some self-respect and self-respect, but she could also see that the girls had such serious feelings for their husbands. If there is no closeness and attachment, this feeling is often synonymous with affection.
Feng Ziying was silent. He didn't want to lie in front of his wife. It was meaningless and would only make her look down upon him.
Her husband's silence added to Shen Yixiu's affirmation. She was actually a little proud, but also a little uncomfortable. Her husband was so outstanding that he attracted the admiration of all the pretty girls, but now her husband was already in a romantic relationship, and she wanted to...
Asking for all kinds of support!
