Next, we need to have a good talk with Gu Guanqiao and all three parties.
Easy first and then difficult.
Feng Ziying feels that the most difficult thing is probably to negotiate with the Northland scholars represented by Qiao Yingjia.
Precisely because they are Northern scholars, it is probably the most difficult for Northern scholars to accept that they have jumped out of the mold and taken a path that is almost deviant. It can even be said that this split the Northern scholar community, which led to Qiao Yingjia's behavior.
of failure.
However, Feng Ziying believes that anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is not the case.
I fully supported Qiao Yingjia, but Qiao Yingjia only got 17 votes. In addition, Pan Ruzhen and Fu Shi, two Jiangnan scholars who had no chance of voting for Qiao Yingjia, had two votes. If the votes were purely based on the place of residence of the Northern scholars,
, the five votes of my own group will only give three votes to Qiao Yingjia, namely myself, practicing state affairs, and Geng Ruqi's three votes, so Qiao Yingjia's vote will be two votes less.
In the final analysis, Qiao Yingjia's prestige, style and ideas failed to win the support of other scholars except the northern scholars. Even many northern scholars were dissatisfied with him.
It can be said that none of Gu Guanqiao and Ye Xianggao have the same prestige and influence as Ye Xianggao. Qi Yongtai was able to control the prestige and influence of several scholar groups at that time. Even if Ye and Qi may not be able to get the full support of other scholar groups, at least they can
They all recognized it and could cooperate within a framework, but now this foundation has been lost.
Gu Bingqian was almost reluctantly supported by Qi Yongtai. It was a kind of inertial maintenance. He had no special ideas or opinions, so he collapsed at this time.
Feng Ziying feels that once this impression is broken, I am afraid that few Jiangnan scholars will sincerely support Gu Bingqian, and others such as Li Banghua and Zhu Guozhen will abandon him. His current influence may even be less than that of Huang Ruliang, who has retired.
Logically speaking, Xu Guangqi can be regarded as a member of the Jiangnan scholars, but Xu Guangqi believed in foreign religion, which made him lose the possibility of becoming the leader of the Jiangnan scholars. Many scholars even disliked him. He may only be a pure minister who only does things.
.
This is fine, Feng Ziying feels that what she uses is what he does and not anything else.
Now the Jiangnan scholars have collapsed into a piece of loose sand. Li Banghua and Zhu Guozhen seem to be able to hold up the situation, but in fact it is difficult for them to gain the recognition of most Jiangnan scholars. Therefore, Feng Ziying is ready to take various measures to defeat this group, and gradually
Solve it by appeasement.
As for the Huguang scholars, they may be united among several major groups. Although Guan Yingzhen's defeat may make them feel a little disappointed, it will not affect their integrity, but Feng Ziying also feels that she can work well with this group.
Cooperate in groups and even form relatively stable alliances.
But there are also problems with the Huguang scholars, including Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke, who do not yet have a relatively clear political appeal, which makes the position of the Huguang scholar group seem somewhat unclear.
In Feng Ziying's view, it is meaningless to simply form a group based on geographical location. To form a party or association, you need to talk about interests and the interests of the group you represent.
What do the Huguang scholars represent? Grain gentry?
It seems not entirely true, so Feng Ziying is also ready to help Chai Ke sort it out. Only by putting forward your own demands and opinions can we talk about forming a party and association, can we talk about like-minded people, and can we talk about alliance and cooperation.
As for the northern scholars, they need to have a good talk with Qiao, Cui, Han, Sun, Wang and others.
But it's probably not going to be easy to talk about. Their ideas and appeals are not consistent. Cui and Wang should be able to win over, but it's hard to say for Han, Sun and others, but they will have to talk to find out.
It is definitely not enough for Feng Ziying to just talk. He also needs to show them his ideals and ambitions, or his governance philosophy, or to put it in more popular terms, how he plans to govern the country in the next five years and his preparations.
What kind of vision should the country's court be moving towards?
In addition to a broad framework, you also have to go into some specific areas, such as the examination method for government officials, new policies for the development of industry and commerce, and how to introduce new reforms in the military field, and so on.
Similar to a five-year plan in later generations.
Feng Ziying had a special discussion with Wang Wenyan about this idea and plan. He would act as his secretary and start drafting the framework, but he would also involve Lian Guoshi, Fu Shi, Pan Ruzhen and others. It could be regarded as a think tank, but this was not enough.
Because it involves many fields, Lian Guoshi and others do not have a comprehensive vision of governance in many aspects, so they can often only put forward their own opinions in some fields. In view of this, Feng Ziying also plans to invite people such as Sun Chengzong, Chai Ke, and Bi Zi
It's important for these people to get involved.
It's time to talk.
"Guanshi, Brother Zishu."
Guan Yingzhen was a little touched by Feng Ziying's proactive visit.
"Ziying,..." When Guan Yingzhen learned that Feng Ziying was coming to visit, he also thought about it. Since he was going to retreat, he should simply do it more beautifully and call Chai Ke, and by the way, bring his eldest son and second son with him.
, it can also be regarded as a kind of inheritance and trust.
"Brother Sui and Jianzhi are also here?"
Compared with Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke, Guan Fubang and Guan Fuji did not dare to accept Feng Ziying's handover, and they bowed politely.
Take a seat and serve tea.
After a few pleasantries, we finally got to the point. Feng Ziying's visit actually represented a gesture. He was willing to cooperate with the scholars in Huguang. This was what Guan Yingzhen, Chai Ke and others expected.
"What did the officials think?"
Feng Ziying still had to seek Guan Yingzhen's opinion. Although the next step was for Chai Ke to take over, the family's inheritance was their own business. Before it was clear, he would definitely seek Guan Yingzhen's opinion.
"Ziying, I won't mention the relationship between Zishu and you. Since I want to return to my hometown and Suizhi and Jianzhi want to stay in Beijing, I will leave it to you. But in the future, the consideration of North Korea-China affairs will
Zishu and I still want to hear your thoughts."
Guan Yingzhen pondered for a while. As the current leader of Huguang scholars, he was about to return to his hometown. He felt that he needed to ask questions for his fellow villagers in his hometown, both in public and private matters.
Feng Ziying was startled for a moment, then recalled that Guan Yingzhen had already negotiated with Chai Ke, or that he had unified the thoughts among the Huguang scholars, so it was good to get down to business.
"Do the officials and Brother Zishu want to hear my thoughts on the scholars in Huguang or do they want to know the future imperial court's considerations about Huguang?" Feng Ziying asked with a smile.
Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke also understood that Feng Ziying was really planning to form an alliance. This was a good sign, and they felt relieved.
