Feng Ziying was shocked again by Feng Ziying's words. Feng Tang really couldn't understand his son.

From Datong to Beijing, Feng Tang's impression was that after returning from that trip to Linqing, his son seemed to be a completely different person, a completely different person.

He dared to dive out of the city to find Chen Jingxuan for help, and then defeated the enemy in one fell swoop. After returning to the capital, he was extraordinarily thoughtful, made progress in his studies, and became famous in the imperial examination. Everything has changed a lot from the son who was by his side. Even Feng Tang

They are all a little surprised that their son has grown up so fast.

As time went by, the changes in his son became even more astonishing. The fact that a martial artist's family had such a scholar made Feng Tang very proud.

After entering the Hanlin Academy, Ningxia could be said to have its own edification and training in countering rebellion, but the strategy of opening up the sea was to inspire people, which suddenly caused an uproar in the court.

Feng Tang can only attribute it to the education and training provided by Qingtan Academy, and the teachings of Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen, two great scholars, contributed to his success.

Later, it became overwhelming. The Tongzhi of Yongping Prefecture, the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, and then the governor of Shaanxi Province all displayed tricks that made people admire them endlessly.

During this period, all kinds of experiences, both inside and outside the court, as well as civil and military officials, all had to say that a tiger father has no dog son, which even made Feng Tang feel ashamed.

It seems that I am really not worthy of this tiger father, and my son's performance has far exceeded myself.

After being shocked, Feng Tang looked at his son with a complicated expression, and after a long time he sighed and said: "Ziying, I know you have grown up and have your own ideas, but you have a house with three bedrooms, and you have eight or nine wives and concubines.

Are you done? The three and four girls of the Jia family have just passed away, and you have taken Li Shouzhong's two nieces and Zhen Yingyu's daughter as concubines. You should take it easy yourself, Master Zhang can't protect your health for the rest of your life."

Feng Ziying felt a little embarrassed by her father's sincere words. Feng Ziying scratched her head and said solemnly: "My son has memorized my father's teachings."

"Hey, you can make up your own mind." Feng Tang shook his head: "I'm going back to the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, what about you? I guess you won't be in your current position as Minister of War for a long time, right?"

"Well, if nothing unexpected happens, my son will go to Nanjing in June to succeed Mr. Liu Ji." Feng Ziying nodded.

"Governor of Jiangnan?" Feng Tang's eyes lit up again, and he couldn't help but sigh: "It will be different if you take this step."

"Why did my father say that? Didn't my son just go to Shaanxi as governor and come back?" Feng Ziying didn't take it seriously.

"Hmph, how can the governor of Shaanxi compare with the governor of Jiangnan? I haven't seen that the imperial court always asked Mr. Gu Ge to serve as the first governor of Jiangnan?" Feng Tang scolded: "If you go to Nanjing with this mentality, it's best

It’s better not to go. If you have such an opportunity, I’m afraid your Qi Shi will also have to say a lot of things for you. You should think about it yourself.”

Feng Ziying quickly stood up to be taught, and Feng Tang's expression softened slightly.

"Although we are from the north, we have to admit that there is truth in the statement that the imperial court has more wealth than Jiangnan. Although there has been improvement in recent years, it is also an indisputable fact that the imperial court cannot operate without the support of Jiangnan's wealth. You

Those tricks are fine for a temporary emergency, but in the long run they are of little use..."

What Feng Tang is talking about is the various "big scandals" that Feng Ziying has constantly launched in Beijing and Nanjing to investigate and deal with.

Of course Feng Ziying knew this very well.

"You have enough connections among the northern gentry, but you must not underestimate the Jiangnan area. If you want to join the cabinet as the chief minister in the future, the support of the Jiangnan gentry is indispensable, otherwise you will be the chief minister.

The foundation is unstable and cannot last long."

Feng Ziying asked unhurriedly: "Father, do you only need the support of scholars to be the chief minister? What about warriors?"

Feng Tang was stunned and took a deep look at his son: "When you are a chief minister, the support of scholars is indispensable. But if you want to be a chief minister who can compete with the emperor, or even overpower a master who can handle it with ease, you can't do it without the support of military men."

"Fortunately, our Feng family comes from a martial arts background and has a strong foundation among the military men in the border town. This is also the confidence that my son can serve as the minister of the Ministry of War." Feng Ziying smiled and said: "My son thinks that since this is our confidence and foundation.

, then you have to continue to maintain it, this is something that no one else can compare with my son, and it may have a greater effect in the future."

Feng Tang couldn't sit still. He felt that his son's words were becoming more and more implicit and meaningful, so he asked in a deep voice: "It is not a good thing for civil servants and military officials to be too close..."

"No, my son doesn't have the problems of those aristocratic families. He prides himself on being noble and pretentious. Our Feng family is a martial artist. There is nothing to be embarrassed about. Being with a martial artist makes us feel more comfortable." Feng Ziying said calmly: "Many times I feel pregnant.

Duke Chang also thinks it is more convenient and easier for me to negotiate with the warriors, isn't that good?"

"I'm afraid Captain Long is not happy with this situation." Feng Tang had to remind him.

"Indeed, it might have been like this if it was the Long Jinwei in the past, but in the current court situation, Long Jinwei has too much time to take care of himself. Lu Song hasn't even found his own position yet, can he still take care of me?" Feng Ziying said with a soft smile.

"Ziying, what do you want to do?" Feng Tang finally changed his expression, "Don't be so bold as to make a mistake for yourself or others."

Feng Ziying blinked her eyes and said innocently: "My son hasn't done anything. Isn't it just like what his father said? When he becomes the chief minister, he should be someone who can control the government and do what he wants without being interfered by others."

Chief Assistant, shouldn’t the warriors be a strong helping hand for the son? Without them, how can the son be confident and bold enough to realize his ambitions?”

Feng Tang was dumbfounded and speechless. After a while, he asked quietly: "Ziying, what are your ambitions in your heart, please tell me?"

"How do you describe the ambition in your son's heart?" Feng Ziying looked serious, "Maybe it is like the world of great harmony described in the "Book of Rites", but it is too illusory. To be more specific, I hope that the people under the imperial court can

We have no worries about food and clothing, live and work in peace and contentment, and scholars, farmers, industry and commerce all perform their respective responsibilities. As a court, it should strive for a better living environment for the people under its rule, whether it is to expand territory or develop industry, commerce and agriculture, there should be no hidden dangers internally, and strong enemies externally.

,…”

Feng Tang was speechless and said hesitantly: "Ziying, your ambition is a bit too ambitious. Even if you become the chief minister, you may not be able to realize it. In the situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the chief minister may not be as happy as you want.

"

"That's why my son is more considerate. The scholars and civil servants in our court are too rigid and believe that only they can govern politics. In fact, they all have their own strengths in culture, Taoism and military strategy, so they are not necessarily the same.

Whoever you want to belittle and overwhelm."

Feng Tang finally understood Feng Ziying's words. According to Feng Ziying's intention, he wanted to form an alliance with warriors, enhance his status as warriors to enrich his own strength, and lay a solid foundation for future governance without interference.

But this grand ambition is really not easy to realize, and when you reach a certain height, you may not think so.

After pondering for a long time, Feng Tang couldn't help but lower his voice and asked: "Ziying, there are only you and me, father and son. Please tell me the truth. Where do you really want to go in the future?"

It goes without saying that anyone who wants to seize military power has some intention, and Feng Tang could not help but think this.

The civil servants of the imperial court gathered military power through the system, but because this model of using civil servants to control military power was difficult to gain the sincere support of the military people, this also resulted in the emperor being more recognized by the military people.

However, the emperor's time was to control the country. Once he returned to peace, he had to rely on civil servants to govern the country, so this forced the emperor to elevate the civil servants to a higher position, which became a paradox.

.

"Father, how do you want your son to answer your question?" Feng Ziying laughed, "My son said before that his ambition is to do something he wants to do, and to work tirelessly in this direction. As for

Speaking of other things is not something that the son should consider. Many times, maybe once you get to that point, you just let nature take its course, right? It's too early to talk about unrealistic things now."

Feng Tang took a deep look at his son, and finally nodded: "Ziying, remember, you have to understand the meaning of everything you do. You still have a large family. As for being a father,

Bian, if you need your father to do something, just ask, but you must explain it clearly to your father."

Brothers fighting the tiger, father and son fighting in the battle, Feng Ziying certainly understood her father's warnings and reminders, and nodded: "Don't worry, father, my son has never been a reckless Meng Lang, father should understand this."

Although he never made it clear, Feng Tang did not ask further. He only needed to remind his son to understand what he was doing.

His son's performance was enough to reassure him that he would not act rashly without a complete plan.

The next topic Feng Ziying also focused on Liu Dongyang and Liu Baichuan.

These two rebel generals have now become Feng Tang's confidants. They are no less valued than Cao Wenzhao, He Shixian and He Renlong. They are even closer than the brothers of the You family in Jizhen.

Already.

Feng Ziying also wanted to give a detailed explanation of the situation of the two of them so that he could persuade Zhang Huaichang and Sun Chengzong to arrange the two of them into appropriate positions after returning.

Although the commander-in-chief of Yulin and Shanxi No. 2 towns will be vacant, and even the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town will be vacant if Ma Chengxun goes to Jingxiang Town, it does not mean that Er Liu can take over as commander-in-chief.

No matter how Feng Ziying recommended him, the imperial court would not allow all such important positions to be filled by people from the northwest. This was not in line with the imperial court's balancing strategy, even if Feng Tang retired and entered the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion.
