Chapter 2239 Gui Zi Scroll Farewell to Li Shaan, the road ahead is long

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 On September 15th, Feng Ziying, Li Tengfang, Pan Ruzhen, Lian Guoshi, Geng Ruqi, Zheng Chongjian, Wu Degui, Xia Zhiling, Xu Junyang and others said goodbye and returned to Beijing together with Sun Chuanting and Chen Qiyu.

Before leaving, it was inevitable to meet Shi Xiangyun, Qin Keqing and others, and even the fourth daughter of the Shui Mu family had to say "goodbye".

It was a simple farewell, but a promise must be given. However, Feng Ziying could not give a too detailed or definite promise, because until now he had not figured out how to solve this problem.

Perhaps there is no way out, but opportunities need to be found based on changes in the situation between North Korea and China.

But even so, the women of Shui Mu's family were satisfied.

As Qin Keqing said, if this man really swears and promises to fulfill their wishes, it means that this man is not sincere and must be perfunctory. It is precisely because this man refuses to make a clear commitment, but tells him that he needs to find opportunities based on the situation. This

It shows that this man really put his thought into it, realized the difficulty of the question, and took it seriously, so he answered like this.

Shi Xiangyun and Qin Keqing still have to stay in Xi'an, but Feng Ziying is sure to solve Shi Xiangyun's problem as soon as possible after returning. Qin Keqing's side is the most uncertain, maybe the simplest, maybe the most difficult. Everything depends on Prince Yi Zhong

What kind of conditions can Concubine Heying and the court finally reach, and what will be the final result?

"Thousands of miles long, there will be a farewell. Brother Junyu, Brother Chucai, Brother Dazhang, you guys shoulder heavy responsibilities. We have said what needs to be said before. I am afraid that the current situation is not optimistic. The chaos in southern Shanxi is heading towards

It is spreading from east to west. If my prediction is right, something will happen in Shanxi Town and Datong Town. The situation in Shanxi that has finally calmed down may still be turbulent. Can you stabilize the situation? I'm afraid you are the mainstay. Degui and I just now

, Jun Yang and Xia Zhiling also said it specifically, and they were also wary."

Feng Zi is very focused in English. Since he is leaving, he must say everything clearly: "The key to the stability of Shaanxi is food, and the key to food lies in two points. One is the Guanzhong Plain. Jun Yu, you and Dazhang have a heavy responsibility on their shoulders; the other is the key to the stability of Shaanxi."

The promotion of potatoes and sweet potatoes, if done well, can eliminate a lot of risks. I know the people of Shaanxi are very patient. As long as they can fill their stomachs, no, let alone fill them, as long as they can survive, even if they are half full.

They would not rebel even if they were hungry and half-fed. Therefore, if the corn and wheat harvest failed, they would have to use potatoes and sweet potatoes to make up for it. Facts have proven that potatoes and sweet potatoes can bear this burden. Brother Chu Cai, Yan'an Prefecture is the first to bear the brunt, and it is also the biggest risk point.

, so there can be no mistakes in the promotion of potatoes and sweet potatoes. Not only must we ensure the stability of Yan'an Prefecture, but we may also have to take into account the pressure from Qingyang..."

Seeing Feng Ziying's serious words, the three of them felt a little heavy in their hearts. Feng Ziying did not say anything lightly. Once he said it, he would definitely have someone to rely on. The Feng family has deep roots in Shanxi and Shaanxi, and has a wide network of contacts. The sources of intelligence in all aspects are even better than those of the imperial court.

Bian also came quickly and accurately, so in many cases they could get some news before the court newspaper.

"If the food problem is solved, then Shaanxi will not be in chaos. But if the situation in Shanxi worsens, I guess the court will have to take Shaanxi's idea..."

As soon as these words came out, Geng Ruqi and Zheng Chongjian both frowned. Shaanxi is already in such a difficult situation, why do they still want to take advantage of Shaanxi?

"Ziying, when you said something was going to happen in Datong and Shanxi Town, did you mean that the Tumut and Chahar people wanted to invade the border?" Chen Qiyu stood behind Feng Ziying and couldn't help it.

He is from Baodezhou, not far from Piantou Pass. Although it is considered the second line, in fact once the Mongols burst in, Baodezhou will bear the brunt.

"If it were just the Mongols, it would be easy to say, but Fengzhou White Lotus is said to be involved, and they are also connected with the White Lotus Sect in the Shanxi mainland, and even the White Lotus Sect over there in Beizhi, so this is the biggest problem

Once the hidden danger breaks out, I'm worried that Shanxi Town and Datong Town will be attacked both internally and externally, and something big will happen." Feng Ziying said with a heavy tone, "But this is just my personal pessimistic analysis. Maybe the situation is not as bad as I imagined, but everything

You can only assume the worst, otherwise there will be trouble in the end.”

"The Ministry of War should know about these situations, right?" Sun Chuanting has expired and may have to stay in the Ministry of War after returning to Beijing, so he is also very concerned. In addition, he is originally from Daizhou Zhenwuwei, which is far away from Ningwuguan and Datong.

The edge is not far away, it is also the front line.

"Maybe they know something, but I'm afraid they may not pay enough attention to it. Fortunately, the Northern Army Corps is said to be mobilizing part of the army to go west. I don't know the specific situation yet, but I am afraid that something will happen in Liaodong, so it will be difficult everywhere." Feng Ziying shook her head.

"If trouble is really going to happen everywhere, let alone the imperial court, it is really possible that it will take Shanxi's side." Lian Guoshi has stayed in Shanxi for so long, and he knows very well that Shanxi's military and political affairs are like shit but full of chaff.

If, as Feng Ziying fears, Shanxi Town and Datong Town have too much time to take care of themselves, the chaos in southern Shanxi will spread to the whole province. In that case, only the northern front army will be relied on. If something happens in Liaodong, it cannot be mobilized and Shaanxi will not be supported.

, who else can I turn to?

In particular, Feng Ziying still allows the Tongguan Guards to be stationed in Puzhou. Doesn't this give the court an excuse to mobilize the Shaanxi Guards?

Since you, Feng Ziying, have not only quelled the civil unrest in Shaanxi for more than a year, but also recruited and recruited several guards to build up, then you don't need to go to Shanxi, when will you wait?

"So, several guards have to keep an eye on it, but I have already told Xie Zhenye not to interfere too much. He won't be able to do it for long anyway. He knows what to do."

Feng Ziying did not hide the news of Xie Zhenye's transfer in front of the three people. If it weren't for the fact that Xie Zhenye had been extremely obedient and obedient in the more than a year since he arrived, Feng Ziying would have removed him long ago. If he wants to leave now, this person cannot

If I want to stay in Shaanxi any longer, I must arrange for a reliable person to come to Shaanxi.

"Ziying, the situation over there in the south of the Yangtze River seems a bit strange. What does Chen Jixian want to do? He has been reluctant to go to Nanjing. Does he intend to become a vassal town?" Geng Ruxi asked this question that many people are very confused about.

"I'm afraid even the cabinet ministers are still a little confused about this issue." Feng Ziying spread her hands, "Maybe it's because we don't have enough troops, or maybe we're worried about pushing Chen Jixian too hard and causing him to completely fall to Nanjing, or maybe it's just

We are worried that the imperial court will not be able to bear the destruction of Jiangnan. In short, the imperial court's attitude towards the Huaiyang Army is too weak. Of course, if we are not in charge, it may be difficult to consider so much. We all know the difficulties of the imperial court. Perhaps combined, the imperial court will

You’re forced to deal with it this way.”

Feng Ziying's answer made everyone fall silent.

This situation of being forced to compromise is the most embarrassing and unacceptable. Seeing that Shandong was recovered, the Northwest Army drove Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu to the river, but Chen Jixian had another problem, and he seemed to be neutral. This was simply

More infuriating than a stab in the back.

"Chen Jixian's problem is difficult to solve. Does that mean the imperial court has other ideas about Nanjing?" Sun Chuanting asked even more pointedly.

"Everything is possible. The Ministry of Revenue is now borrowing money from everywhere. If this continues, it will first bring down the imperial government's finances. By the way, the three sides and four towns will have to pay wages for another half a year. If this continues, there will be another crisis of Ningxia Rebellion.

The seeds have been sown." Feng Ziying smiled helplessly: "The reconstruction of Xuanfu Town is stalling, the replacement of firearms in Liaodong and Ji Town is slow, and the rebellion of the Yang family and Anshe family in Bozhou, Sichuan is like a see-saw, which consumes a lot of money.

, this time I go back, if I stay in the Ministry of War, I will also think carefully about how to avoid being led by these people all the time. There is no clear response strategy at all, it is all temporary and perfunctory. If things go on like this,

Who doesn’t have a problem?”

In the final analysis, in a word, there is no money.

Jiangnan was out of control, water transportation was cut off, and taxes were not paid. If the imperial court had not relied on the previous Shipping Department to make a profit, it would later have launched a series of cases such as the "Jingtongcang Case" and the "Jiangnan Conspiracy Case" to investigate officials.

Wu Xun simply cannot support it now. Although the Yuguan and Dagu shipping lines are continuous and can continuously import grain and other materials from Jiangnan and even Guangdong and Guangxi, but the import requires money. Without money, Jiangnan and Guangxi will immediately

I can cut it off for you.

Even so, the court couldn't bear the delay until the first half of the year. It had to borrow eight million taels of silver from Haitong Bank at once. It is estimated that it will only be delayed until next spring. This money is like water. If it is not paid as soon as possible,

Jiangnan took it back to support the court's expenses. Once something happened to the north, it would really fall apart.

It was precisely after seeing this dangerous situation that the cabinet borrowed money like crazy, but would rather negotiate and compromise with Prince Yohitada in order to stabilize the situation.

Changing another person to be the emperor will definitely have an impact on the interests of the scholars, but it is nothing more than the meat rotting in the pot. The internal interests of the Jiangnan, Northern and Huguang scholars will be distributed, and the external interests will be competed with the imperial power. More importantly, it is necessary to ensure that

The bottom line is that the security of the northern defense line and internal stability cannot be allowed to allow foreigners or bandits such as the White Lotus Sect to take advantage of the situation.

It would be absolutely unacceptable to the scholars to allow foreigners to take over the Central Plains, as in the Liao, Jin and Mongolian and Yuan dynasties, or to smash the entire imperial court to pieces like the Yellow Turban Uprising at the end of the Han Dynasty.

So based on this bottom line, any conditions can be negotiated.

Feng Ziying's words before leaving made everyone feel heavy in their hearts. The situation in Shaanxi has stabilized, but this is just a corner. There are too many internal and external troubles in the court. Fortunately, Feng Ziying is going to Beijing now. He can think of so many things. Returning to Beijing

Naturally, we had to come up with countermeasures, and before they knew it, everyone had subconsciously placed their hopes on this young man who was only in his early twenties.
