T-Scroll Chapter 115 A true disciple is better than a master (Second update, please vote for me!)
After brewing for a while, Guan Yingzhen slowly picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea without saying anything.
The slightly dark cheeks look slightly thinner than when he was the dean and headmaster of Qingtan Academy, which also shows that during the period of appointment, this backbone leader of the Huguang School was not easy either.
Among the scholars of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Huguang scholars have always been a force that cannot be ignored.
Compared with the insignificant scholars from Southwest China and Guangdong and Guangxi, the scholars from Huguang can achieve good results in almost every subject in autumn and spring, which also allows the scholars from Huguang to maintain a very strong vitality in the court.
As the confrontation between the northern scholars and the Jiangnan scholars became more and more obvious and the contradictions intensified, the Huguang scholars had always been a tool for the emperor and other scholars to use to hedge and balance the other party's power.
Whenever all parties feel that their own momentum has been frustrated and their strength has been weakened to their disadvantage, they will consider bringing in Huguang scholars as a buffer. The emperor is often inclined to such an arrangement, and Huguang scholars are also happy to serve as such a buffer.
Role.
Among the current scholars in Huguang, there are Zheng Jizhi, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, Chai Ke, the right minister of the Ministry of War and the governor of the three sides, who is on his way back to Beijing and is expected to come to Beijing in the next two days, the official Ying Zhen in front of him, and the Du Cha.
Yang He, the imperial censor of the right capital of the courtyard, and Wu Liangsi, a doctor in the household department, were among the best.
In comparison, Feng Ziying, a dark horse who suddenly broke into the political arena of the Great Zhou Dynasty, seemed a bit unusual.
On the surface, it seems that he was recommended by Qiao Yingjia to enter Qingtan Academy and studied under Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen. Both of them were leaders of northern scholars. He was also a native of Shuntian Prefecture in Shandong Province.
And growing up in Shanxi, he can be said to be a model of northern scholars as far north as possible.
However, judging from the various suggestions and suggestions he made after entering politics, he is not like those simple and radical young scholars from the North.
Counterinsurance in Western Xinjiang and defense of Liaodong are undoubtedly in line with the interests of the North. Even the return strategy was proposed in the name of relieving the imperial court's financial pressure on nine-border defense and ensuring the implementation of nine-border defense expenditures.
But in fact, the beneficiaries were by no means only people from the north. It can even be said with certainty that the gentry and merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, especially the gentry and merchants in Fujian and Zhejiang, benefited a lot.
This is also the reason why Ye Xianggao, Li Tingji and Fang Congzhe all favor Feng Ziying, and it is also the key to his smooth journey to the Hanlin Academy to compile essays.
Otherwise, just for this unprecedented second-level Jinshi to be awarded the Hanlin Academy for compilation, even if he was deeply valued by Emperor Yonglong, there would be no way it would be approved by the cabinet.
Official rules are not easy to break, especially when it comes to changes in the official system, which is of great importance.
In the eyes of Ye Xianggao, Fang Congzhe, Li Tingji and others, although Feng Ziying is young and a scholar from the North, she is at least a great Zhou scholar and civil servant who understands the overall situation and takes into account the overall situation. To get such evaluation from these people, it is hard to
It's not simple.
Now Feng Ziying, who is also the eldest son, is going to marry the daughter of Shen Jue, a famous scholar from the Suzhou family and a famous Jiangnan scholar. Guan Yingzhen even heard that Feng Ziying might also marry the daughter of Lin Hai, the salt censor of the Lianghuai Patrol, who is also a Suzhou scholar. In addition,
Feng Ziying was born in Wu Xun, so his identity suddenly seemed confused and blurred.
Based on Guan Yingzhen's observation, his disciple is indeed very broad-minded, far better than any disciple he has taught at Qingtan Academy in the past few years, and better than any young scholar he has come into contact with.
Whether it is Lian Guoshi, Xu Xie, Han Jing, Huang Zunsu, Yang Sichang, Hou Xun, at least in terms of vision and mind, these peers cannot compare with Feng Ziying.
Moreover, although Feng Ziying was almost the youngest among his students at the same time, only slightly older than Sun Chuanting, after the Spring Festival Competition, she began to gradually show her leadership style.
If we say that when they were in the academy, Fan Jingwen, He Fengsheng and others were still not convinced by Feng Ziying, but after experiencing the Spring Festival Competition and the selection of Shujishi in the palace, especially after experiencing the counterinsurgency in Western Xinjiang and the strategy of opening up the sea, as well as Jiangnan
After the group, He Fengsheng, Fan Jingwen, and even Lian Guoshi wholeheartedly recognized Feng Ziying's leadership in this subject.
When Fan Jingwen came to visit him a few days ago, he mentioned Feng Ziying's various performances during his trip to the south of the Yangtze River, especially his inspection of the shipbuilding industry and his efforts to win over maritime merchants. Both Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng felt that they had studied for so many years, how could they get along with him?
The gap between Feng Ziying and Feng Ziying is so big, why have they never considered or come up with such a trick?
In fact, Lian Guan Yingzhen himself was also greatly shocked after hearing this, and even asked himself if he could be like Feng Ziying if he were in that position.
Guan Yingzhen felt that he might take similar measures, but he might not be able to do it as decisively and swiftly as Feng Ziying. Of course, he could have his own methods to make it more perfect and make those people more convinced. This was not Feng Ziying's experience.
Resume and age can do it.
In other words, given time and given Feng Ziying ten or twenty years of tempering, this guy will really have to prove himself as the youngest pavilion elder or even the chief assistant in history, right?
This thought has been lingering in Guan Yingzhen's heart at this time, and he looked directly at Feng Ziying in front of him, making Feng Ziying's hair stand on end.
"Official teacher?...,"
Guan Yingzhen finally put away all the complicated emotions, snorted softly, and put down the teacup.
"Tell me, what are your considerations for the next step? Well, that is, what kind of goal and result do you think should be achieved in the sea-opening matter? What aspects should you start from now?"
Guan Yingzhen carefully considered his words.
Ye Xianggao and Qi Yongtai both talked to him separately, so the matter was basically settled.
The Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Household Affairs in Nanjing, who is in charge of the book department, is responsible for the affairs of the imperial court. Now he is waiting for the emperor to summon him. After the official confirmation, the imperial court will write the document.
"My teacher is now a grasshopper on the same rope as you. Jun Yu also came to see my teacher yesterday. I don't know where he got the news. He also wants to work with you. My teacher is thinking about Hanlin Academy.
If two generals are lost in a row, Huang Ruliang will have a fight with his master when he sees him."
Feng Ziying burst into laughter, practicing state affairs very quickly.
As for the source of the news, Lian Guoshi was a scholar from Henan, and Cui Jingrong, who was about to be transferred from the right minister of the Ministry of Revenue to the right minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was from his hometown. Naturally, this kind of news could not be concealed.
"Haha, Master, Brother Jun Yu came to the student's place a few days ago. He felt that studying history far away in the Imperial Academy was meaningless and didn't want to continue, so he came to ask the disciple. The disciple said that of course he was willing to work with him." Feng Ziying laughed happily.
Authentic: "As for the Hanlin Academy, where there are so many talented people, how can there be a shortage of disciples and brother Jun Yu? Mr. Huang is afraid that his disciples are not under his nose. He hangs on the title of the Hanlin Academy all day long, but he doesn't.
Doing the work of compiling history and making imperial edicts, besides, I don’t know how long Mr. Huang, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, can do the work of being in charge of the Imperial Academy affairs."
Guan Yingzhen glared at Feng Ziying, "You know again? Why didn't I realize that Ziying still has this hobby?"
Feng Ziying chuckled, in the officialdom, unless one has great self-control, who can't do this? Besides, it's all about self-interest, how can you not care?
"Let's get down to business!" Guan Yingzhen scolded angrily.
"Well, from a big perspective, it is natural to open the Liaonan-Denglai route and ensure the logistics support of Liaodong. This is the basic requirement of the Ministry of War and the court, and it is also the main responsibility of the Denglai Governor's Office. However, these early facts require
Let's push it forward." Feng Ziying also looked serious, "This is the north side, and the south side is vigorously developing maritime trade, collecting charter fees from merchants, and borrowing heavily. The Ministry of Revenue also hopes that after the maritime trade is opened, the Shipping Department will
It can bring stable sea tax revenue to it, and it is best to have some income after resolving the debt..."
"This is on the surface, what else?" Guan Yingzhen was not a pedantic scholar. Before he became the headmaster of Qingtan Academy, he had been bumpy in the official career for decades. Of course, he would not be so shallow in his views on issues.
"Going a step further, in addition to controlling the trade between Japan and Korea in the hands of the imperial court, the disciples intend to open up the path from Denglai to Ezo through Korea, and then directly to the rear of the Jianzhou Jurchens, and to form an alliance with the Haixi Jurchens and the Savage Jurchens, so that
It is difficult to take care of the beginning and the end, and no matter how bad it is, the Jurchens in Jianzhou will not be able to move westward and south with all their strength." Feng Ziying was firm, obviously he had already made up his mind about this, "Develop Dongfan, solve the problems of coastal piracy and Japanese pirates, and at the same time let Dongfan
It can become a strategic and valuable place for the imperial court on the East China Sea."
Guan Yingzhen slowly shook his head, "That's all? Ziying, I don't think this is your plan. You should have some ideas. Do you still want to hide it from me?"
"Master, you are raising your disciples too high. It is very rare to achieve a small success in five years and to see results in ten years. Your disciples are not gods, so how can they have such great abilities? Moreover,
Master, these are just some superficial thoughts of the disciple. Logically speaking, it is you who should come up with your thoughts. The disciple is just providing you with some reference opinions."
Feng Ziying quickly begged for mercy.
"Humph, don't do this to me. I don't know you yet, my teacher?" Guan Yingzhen said bluntly, "This is just the most realistic, superficial or direct purpose. You should have some more far-reaching goals.
, this is the feeling of being a teacher, and taking one step and watching three steps, isn’t this your usual routine? This is only two steps, let’s talk about the third step.”
Feng Ziying did not expect that this official teacher would force her to tell the truth as soon as she arrived, but she had to say that her apprentice Mo Ruoshi probably left a deep impression on Guan Yingzhen during her more than two years at Qingtan Academy, so
He didn't believe that he just had such simple thoughts. Of course, he did have them.
