Chapter 35 of Gui Zi Scroll: Provoke fire and be daring
Feng Ziying laughed out loud and glanced sideways at Zhou Peisheng, who advised him to make multiple bets, but it looked like he was hanging on Guo Qinjun and Prince Gong with a rope.
However, there is really no comparison between himself and the other party. Zhou Peisheng was originally the weakest chamberlain in the book "Dream of Red Mansions". Dai Quan, Xia Bingzhong, and Qiu Shi'an were all promoted to stewards early, but he was promoted before Yonglong Emperor Qiu Xu.
The newly promoted general manager has the lowest qualifications and the weakest foundation. If he still wants to imitate Qiu Shian and eat fish at both ends, then I am afraid that even Guo Qinyun will not like him.
Since he had no choice, of course he had to hold on to Guo Qinjun and think about Guo Qinjun and Prince Gong. This was the right thing to do. In other words, he cared more about Prince Gong's future. As for the others, including the Queen Mother Quanfei.
, maybe in his mind, he is far inferior to himself, a noble person who can bring great help to Prince Gong.
It's just that Prince Gong is too young now and still needs to rely on the support of his mother, Concubine Quan. Therefore, Zhou Peisheng is actually very dissatisfied with Concubine Quan's mindless operations and willful arrogance. However, due to feelings and the current situation, he can only find ways to find ways
Wiping Queen Tsuen's butt on the ground.
Feng Ziying was very accurate about Zhou Peisheng's mentality.
Zhou Peisheng knew very well that his fate had long been tied to Prince Gong. Only if Prince Gong stepped forward could he have hope. But now it seems that Prince Gong's strength and momentum are the weakest.
Zhang Jingqiu's faint decline in power, Chen Jingxuan's fall from grace, and Prince Gong's failure to enter Qingtan Academy due to his age. This made Prince Gong, who seemed to be somewhat popular in the court on the basis of his intelligence since childhood, quickly be replaced by
Being excluded from the candidates for the position of supervising the country made Zhou Peisheng even more anxious than Guo Qinjun and Prince Gong's mother and son.
It is not an exaggeration to say that some of the people in the Tsuen Concubine and Prince Gong's family are seriously ill and seek medical treatment. Guo Qinjun even went to Zhang Jingqiu several times to cry and complain, but Zhang Jingqiu is now helpless. Ye Fang and the two even intend to disturb his Zuo Duyu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
His position as history made him feel that he could not protect himself. How could he dare to act rashly?
The search for a virtuous concubine to connect with the scholars from the north of the Feng family was also a path that Zhou Peisheng found out after painstaking consideration.
In Zhou Peisheng's view, the Feng family is now too powerful, especially the Feng family's influence in the military, which has made the cabinet ministers a little taboo. After Jiangnan is pacified, Feng Tang will inevitably be relieved of military power and continue to serve as governor of Jiliao.
It’s not a bad idea to no longer hold the post of Commander-in-Chief of Liaodong Army. I might as well put you back to the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army as a Commander-in-Chief or a Commander-in-Chief, making you appear to be a very popular minister on the surface, but actually have no military power.
possible.
So in this case, the Feng family will definitely need to find allies.
Although Feng Ziying was a civil servant and her master was a cabinet minister, her father Feng Tang was a military general and the Feng family was a wealthy family in a border town, so they were definitely not willing to lose military power.
Even being the commander-in-chief of a town is better than the seemingly superior commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army Commander-in-Chief. Zhou Peisheng believes that the Feng family will also consider how to balance the micro management here.
However, the natural opposition between military personnel and civil servants makes it difficult for Feng Ziying to gain support on issues such as Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia. It is okay to support him but impossible to support Feng Tang. Then perhaps Feng Ziying will seek to be an arbiter between civil and military officials.
Tianjia came to get help, which is why Zhou Peisheng was optimistic about this opportunity to form an alliance.
Of course, Feng Ziying can also choose the following options, such as Concubine Mei Yue, Prince Xilu, Concubine Xu Huang, Prince Longevity, and Prince Su Lingyao, Prince Fu.
However, due to the bad relationship between Feng Ziying and King Shou, this party gave up first.
In Zhou Peisheng's opinion, Su Lingyao's side is not that of an emperor, but Feng Ziying can also see that.
The only ones are Mei Yuexi and King Lu, but many people are optimistic about Mei Yuexi now. Even Qiu Shian is flirting with Mei Yuexi, Dai Quan has also come back to cheer for Mei Yuexi, and Ye Fang and Ye Fang in the middle court are also said to be very fond of each other.
Appreciating King Lu, Mei Yuexi may not necessarily value the Feng family that much.
Since it is a bet, of course you have to bet on the unpopular to get the most benefit. Prince Gong is both talented and virtuous. His younger age may mean more flexibility for the princes in the court, so it is not impossible to win the support of the princes in the court.
Possibly, it may not mean that you cannot grab some opportunities from King Lu.
The situation of the Feng family is undoubtedly the most worthy of our side. They have powerful forces in the military and have deep connections with the scholars in the North. If we can win the full support of the Feng family and then gain the recognition of the scholars in the North, Prince Gong will
Maybe you can give it a try.
"Mr. Zhou, you have really worked hard for Concubine Quan, but does Prince Gong really have a chance?" Feng Ziying smiled faintly, "The fight between Prince Lu and Prince Shou may not necessarily give Prince Gong a chance."
"If you don't fight, how do you know you don't have a chance?" Zhou Peisheng responded with a smile, "Let's not talk about King Shou. King Lu is indeed very popular, but is being popular really appropriate? I'm afraid not necessarily.
The minds of the princes in the court will also change."
The last sentence was meaningful, but Feng Ziying nodded slightly in agreement.
The interests of the scholars represented by the princes in the court share the same world with the scholar-bureaucrats. The contradiction between the interests of the scholars and the emperor will always exist. There needs to be a balance, and the emperor's wisdom or mediocrity depends on the interests of the princes in the court.
Got an idea.
Feng Ziying and Zhou Peisheng got along very well.
Although Feng Ziying did not express her position clearly, she still showed great interest in it, which made Zhou Peisheng very happy.
As long as the other party is willing to contact, there is room for discussion. It is nothing more than an exchange of interests. What can the Feng family get, what can Feng Ziying get, and what kind of support can he provide to Prince Gong. The first step should be to let Prince Gong
He immediately entered Qingtan Academy. With the reputation of Qingtan Academy, Prince Gong quickly established himself among the scholars, preventing King Lu from being the most beautiful.
The conversation between Guo Qinyun and Yuan Chun was not very harmonious. Yuan Chun's caution made Guo Qinyun feel left out.
From her point of view, when she took the initiative to show her goodwill to Jia Yuanchun, the other party actually acted pretentious towards her, and acted like he was on guard against her, which made her very unhappy.
And she felt more and more that Yuanchun's behavior was very strange. She mentioned Feng Ziying intentionally or unintentionally, and the strong spring love in the other person's eyebrows lingered. This was obviously a sign that someone had something on his mind, or that he only had a man.
, when the emperor has been in a coma for so long, who could this man be? You don’t have to ask.
Guo Qinjun was shocked by how bold Jia Yuanchun and Feng Ziying were, but she couldn't help but have an idea in her heart. Regardless of whether the two people had an affair was true or not, just because they met in private, it was an indisputable fact.
In fact, using this as an excuse to make the other party submit and use it for your own use seems to be much more effective than trying to make good friends with the other party in such a low-key manner.
When Zhou Peisheng and Feng Ziying came out after walking around the small garden, Guo Qinjun also came out of the flower hall angrily.
Jia Yuanchun's disrespectful promotion made her very angry, and this anger also extended to Feng Ziying.
Seeing Feng Ziying calm and composed in front of Zhou Peisheng, and then seeing Zhou Peisheng on her behalf looking like a flatterer to please the other party, she felt a burst of anger for no reason.
"Master Feng, I want to talk to you alone..." Zhou Peisheng was taken aback and immediately said: "Your Majesty,..."
"Pei Sheng, I want to talk to Mr. Feng alone. It's okay to do it in the back garden, right? Mr. Feng can come to Chongxuan Temple to visit the virtuous concubine. I'll lend you flowers to offer to Buddha. I want to talk to Mr. Feng.
, he can also be regarded as our parent official..." Guo Qinyun chuckled, but it was full of air conditioning.
Zhou Peisheng has not yet realized what kind of trouble this Concubine Quan is going to cause, but Feng Ziying has already figured it out. It seems that Concubine Quan is really here to cause trouble for him, and he doesn't know what Yuan Chun and the other party are talking about.
No matter what, but looking at Yuanchun's hesitant expression, it doesn't seem good.
"Since your Majesty has given you an order, how dare you disobey me?" Feng Ziying laughed loudly, "My Majesty, please come this way."
Watching the two of them walking back, Zhou Peisheng hesitated to speak. In the end, he could only sigh and stay where he was.
As soon as she stepped into the small garden, Feng Ziying glanced at the other party and said coldly: "Ms. Quan Fei, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Manager Zhou has told me before, but I am very curious about your attitude.
It's like asking someone, more like giving orders, but it seems that it's not my turn to give orders, or it won't be too late after His Royal Highness Prince Gong ascends the throne?"
"Haha, Mr. Feng, I have something to ask for, but don't you have anything to ask for from me?" Guo Qinjun smiled coldly, and her words became rude, "Concubine Xian De behaved very well today.
It's puzzling. I'm so excited, my cheeks are dizzy, and I'm feeling unwell. Could it be that I went too far in having an affair with a wild man?"
Feng Ziying was shocked. Yuanchun Jade Melon had just broken through, and her mind was wandering. Was this woman seeing through it? Or was this woman deceiving herself?
So what if he knew? Feng Ziying became calmer and colder in her heart. She glanced at the other party coldly, but her tone became a little solemn: "Mother, don't you hear that it is unlucky to see the fish in the deep, and there will be disaster for those who hide their wisdom?"
Guo Qinjun was startled and stopped in horror: "Feng Keng, are you threatening me?"
"If you think this is a threat, then forget it." Feng Ziying's eyes were like swords. She stood still and looked at no one nearby. She felt cruel in her heart. She raised her hand and pinched the other person's cheek frivolously, and her face suddenly came close to the other person's face.
Chi, bared his teeth and smiled brightly: "You are so provocative to me and there are no consequences? Is there anything between Concubine Xian De and me? Captain Long didn't even say a word, so it's your turn to make noise? Om?"
Guo Qinjun was shocked. She didn't expect that the other party would be so presumptuous. He would come to tease her and even pinch her face. No man except the emperor had ever touched her jaw. This frightened her so much.
, I didn’t know what to do for a moment, "Feng Keng, how bold are you?! Do you want to annihilate the Nine Clans?"
