Feng Ziying stayed at Qingtan Academy until dark before leaving.
In addition to giving guidance on the studies of his former classmates, he mostly chatted with these classmates alone, and of course Guan Yingzhen and Zhou Yongchun were also indispensable.
Needless to say, Xu Qixun and Sun Chuanting have the closest relationship with Feng Ziying in the academy.
Although the relationship between Song Shixiang and Fu Zonglong is not as good as that between Xu and Sun, they are still quite close. However, one of them is a few years older than Feng Ziying, and the other is because they can't let go due to some conflicts of temperament, so although
When they get closer in the later stage, they are slightly inferior to Xu and Sun.
On Song Shixiang's side, Feng Ziying felt that this person should still be able to follow the path of Fang Youdu in the future. The Ministry of Punishment or the Metropolitan Procuratorate, or Dali Temple would be more suitable for this person, so Feng Ziying also talked about some targeted topics, and Song Shixiang was also very grateful.
Fu Zonglong's side should be more targeted, such as the dispute over the southwestern lands. Fu Zonglong is originally from Kunming, so he naturally knows the situation there better, so he is also very interested in military affairs.
After two years of hard work, Feng Ziying feels that the standards of these students should have improved, and they should be more confident in the next subject.
When she returned home and saw a lot of posts and gifts on the concierge, Feng Ziying also felt a headache.
This strategy of opening up the sea is indeed like touching a huge hornet's nest. All forces are involved, and the interests involved are wide-ranging. It is hard to say who will come first and who will come last, who will be superior and who will be inferior.
As Feng Ziying and Xu Xie said, now everyone has no idea and is starting from scratch. So there are too many uncertainties about who can take the lead or even come from behind.
Perhaps a word from a minister in the imperial court can change the fate of a place or a family. Although Feng Ziying is not a big deal in terms of qualifications and anecdotes in the imperial court, his status is too special. Starting a business and borrowing money is the first thing he did.
It was put forward, and even many frameworks were put forward first.
Although it is now the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War that take the lead in submitting them to the cabinet for discussion, on many issues, the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War must still ask Feng Ziying if they are not clear or unsure. Therefore, if we can forge a good relationship first, stay
The next impression, even if it may not come in handy this time, but what about the next time?
What's more, Feng Ziying is valued by the court officials at such a young age, and has a bright future in the future. Forging this good relationship can be regarded as laying a foundation for the future.
Feng Ziying looked at these posts. Some of them were from Su Jinling, Ningbo, Longyou, Dongting, Huizhou, Fujian, Shanxi, and the Guangdong and Guangxi Chamber of Commerce. There were also some greetings sent directly from a certain place, such as Longyou Yu.
The Hu family, the Dongting family, the Weng family, the Wang family, the Xu family, the Fujian family, the Lin family, and the Li family.
The gifts sent were also various, ranging from pens, inks, paper and inkstones to silk tea, from glazed porcelain to medicinal materials and local products, and the value of these gifts was well understood, mostly between thirty and fifty taels of silver, which is not an exaggeration.
But it’s also valuable.
These gentry, merchants and guild merchants have long been familiar with the method of giving gifts to make friends, and they know how to win the favor to the maximum extent. They will not make it too difficult for you to refuse, but also let you feel his heart.
Even Feng Ziying has to admit that these businessmen are indeed deeply engaged in this field, making it difficult for you to feel disgusted.
"Sir, my wife wants you to go to her room." When Jin Chuaner saw Feng Ziying coming back, she hurriedly reminded her, "My wife seems a little unhappy about these visits to deliver greeting cards and gifts."
Feng Ziying laughed and said, "Yeah, I understand."
Needless to say, my mother must be a little worried. Seeing that she has just gained a reputation, she naturally does not want things like this to affect her future future, so she has to remind herself.
As expected, when she arrived at her mother's room, Mrs. Duan directly asked about the endless flow of greetings and gifts in the past few days.
"Don't worry, mother. My son knows what he knows. In fact, my mother must have seen it. These posts must be responded to. I just want to send a post to make myself familiar. They are all local gentry and merchants. How can my son have much contact with them?"
Besides, my son has also seen the gifts they sent, and they are all very appropriate. They are just ordinary local products. Even if the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Long Jinwei are here, it doesn't matter much."
Seeing that Feng Ziying was calm and confident, Duan felt much more at ease. In fact, he also knew that with his son's mind, such things must be well thought out, but he was still worried that his son was too young and could not see through this.
However, when Feng Ziying said this, she also knew that her worries were unfounded.
"Brother Keng, you have always had an idea. Mom won't say much. You can make up your own mind on how to deal with it. Your father is not here. If you are not sure, go to your two teachers and listen to their opinions.
." Duan nodded.
"Don't worry, mother. My son wants to have a big future. How can he be willing to stumble over these things? Besides, our Feng family is not a family that lacks these things. Why do we do something worthless just for a small profit?
What's going on?" Feng Ziying told her mother not to worry, "I also said hello to the door. If the items are of unknown origin or too valuable, they should be put aside separately. If they are inappropriate, they will be disposed of separately."
"Well, mother, you can rest assured." Mrs. Duan nodded, "Brother Keng, you are also over sixteen years old. According to your father's wishes, your uncle will marry the Shen family's daughter, but ours
I'm afraid you should consider a room as soon as possible. If your teacher has a suitable family, you might as well ask your teacher to consider it for you. If not, many people have already come to inquire about it, and then I will make the decision for you."
Duan still respects Feng Ziying's two teachers. In her opinion, Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia are both important ministers in the court and minor civil servants. In every aspect, their knowledge and connections are much better than hers. If they are
Of course it would be best to find a suitable family. She also believed that her son would definitely be able to find one with such a talent, but in terms of age, she couldn't delay it any longer. The age of sixteen was a good time to discuss marriage. One or two years had passed before the marriage was agreed upon.
You can get married within a few years, and strive to continue the Feng family's legacy before you are twenty.
The mortality rate of children is very high these days, and it is basically difficult to determine whether they will survive if they are less than seven or eight years old, so the best way is to have more children.
"Well, mother, please be patient. Since father and teacher have agreed that Shen's daughter will be the eldest wife, there is no need to worry too much about the third wife. Moreover, Master Qi and Master Qiao are also looking for a suitable family for their son, so
Mother’s side is better not to agree to other families for the time being.”
Feng Ziying can only adopt a slow-down strategy. He doesn't dare to tell his mother about Sister Lin and Sister Bao yet. Taking responsibility will definitely arouse her mother's firm opposition. This matter is going to be bad. He needs to find a more suitable time to do it.
Make this clear.
Lin Yatou is about to be thirteen years old now, but her body is still a little thin. If her mother finds out, she will definitely not agree. Baochai is in good health, but the Huangshang family and the loss of his father may not be able to let his mother.
Acceptance also takes time, and Feng Ziying also feels a headache when thinking about this.
Duan glanced at her son with some suspicion. She always felt that something was wrong here, but she couldn't explain it. Fortunately, Shen's daughter's marriage was finalized in all aspects, which could be regarded as a major event for the Feng family.
.
When Feng Ziying stepped into the gate of Jia Mansion again, she could feel the different changes in Jia Mansion.
"Congratulations." It can be said that people are in high spirits during happy events. Feng Ziying saw that the mental states of Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu were different, especially Jia Baoyu, who looked around for Shenfei, which was really different.
"Haha, why should Ziying be so polite? Why do the Jia and Feng families need to be like this?" Jia Lian shook his head slightly. For him, it didn't mean much to choose the virtuous concubine of Fengzao Palace in the spring of this year. Of course it was definitely a good thing, and that
Wang Ziteng's transfer to the newly established Governor-General of Denglai was just to make his wife more proud, and it had nothing to do with him.
Of course, for the rest of the Jia family, they are all in high spirits, and it seems that the Jia family will embark on the path of becoming royal relatives from now on.
"Brother Lian is wrong. This kind of thing is still gratifying. Although it is not appropriate to make a big show of it, etiquette still needs to be done." Feng Ziying said with a smile: "Uncle Shi Shi and Uncle Zheng Shi are here, right?"
A series of personnel changes in the DPRK and Central Government were finally settled the day before yesterday. Qi Yongtai was appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the Bachelor of Dongge. Li Tingji was appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Rites and the Bachelor of the Dongge. Li Sancai was appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. Qiao Yingjia was appointed as the right-hand man of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Deputy Capital Censor.
The current cabinet is also made up of four people. The first assistant, Ye Xianggao, is a bachelor of Jinshen Palace, the second assistant, Fang Congzhe, is a bachelor of Wuying Palace, and Qi Yongtai and Li Tingji are both bachelors of Dongge Palace.
"Everyone is here. I heard that Ziying is coming, and the two masters are waiting for me." Jia Lian said with a smile: "There is a big commotion in the court this time, and the two masters don't understand it, so I want to ask Ziying to explain it on my behalf."
Just a moment."
Feng Ziying laughed, "Uncle Zheng Shi only needs to go to the prince's house for a visit. Don't you already know everything?"
"There are also too many guests at Uncle Wang's place during this period. I want to avoid suspicion, so it's hard to go there too many." Jia Lian explained.
In fact, Feng Ziying should have known about these changes in advance. Of course, Jia Yuanchun chose Fengzao Palace but did not know that. However, the imperial court established the governor of Denglai, Wang Ziteng was appointed governor of Denglai, and Niu Jizong was appointed governor of Xuanda.
After some deliberation, it was finally decided.
Feng Ziying didn't know how the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor had negotiated this, but these changes were quickly finalized. Incidentally, it also emerged that Jia Yuanchun chose Fengzao Palace, which made Feng Ziying feel that this was the case.
There are still many unexplainable things hidden behind the competition game.
The Jia family was led into the whirlpool either actively or passively, and they didn't know whether it was a disaster or a blessing.
