Chapter 287 of the Renzi Scroll: Turning the clouds and rain with just one hand
As Liu Baichuan's troops moved north, more than 10,000 Xuanfu troops and He Huchen's troops in the Beijing camp gathered and integrated.
With more than 50,000 people in place, Sun Chengzong has the basic base in his hands.
The biggest problem is the selection and reorganization of the defeated army in Shanxi Town, which is the most difficult.
However, Sun Chengzong had enough confidence. Liu Baichuan was a tiger and wolf master from Gansu Town. They were all descendants of the northwest. They were hardworking and hardworking. They came to the colorful world of the Central Plains and wanted to make a fortune with their own hands. They never wanted to go back.
I’ve been through the hard days in Northwest where the next meal doesn’t come right after the next meal.
The defeat of Shanxi Town also gave them an opportunity to stand out. Sun Chengzong wanted to use them as the backbone, and he even lacked confidence in Yang Zhaoji and He Huchen's troops. However, these howling beggar soldiers in Gansu Town were very suitable.
Sun Chengzong's appetite.
The Ministry of War's supply guarantee was given priority to these 30,000 people, which made the 30,000 Northwest Army rejoice, and even Liu Baichuan was a little worried. Sun Chengzong had single-handedly won over the morale of the army.
However, the overall situation was more important, and Feng Tang also specifically told Liu Baichuan that he must fully support Sun Chengzong and ensure that the war on the northern front opened up so that the war on the western front could start smoothly.
Feng Ziying also found an opportunity to tell Yang Zhaoji and He Huchen the whole story, as well as Sun Chengzong's intentions and abilities.
Yang Zhaoji and He Huchen were not rebellious people who did not understand current affairs. They also wanted to take this opportunity to wash away the shame of the defeat of the Three Tun Camps in Beijing, so they both agreed and would definitely obey the orders and fight.
A good fight to prove himself to the court.
As for the official affairs of the government, Fu Shi has become more and more proficient. He has basically established the weather pattern of being the first of the five generals, and Mei Zhiye is now cooperative. Especially under the current situation where the war is getting increasingly tense, everyone knows that the northern route is really needed.
If we lose again, everyone will have no good fruits to eat, so they still work together and work diligently.
People like Wu Yan, Fan Jingwen, He Fengsheng and others also performed well in their respective positions.
Especially when it comes to supplying materials to the army and civilians, Feng Ziying also repeatedly told the three of them to take the overall situation into consideration, temporarily ignore the clamor of the gentry and the public opinion of the people, and focus on ensuring the needs of the army.
This is something that all the princes in the court are watching, not just the Ministry of War and Household Affairs. It can be said that every detail can be quickly fed back to the ears of the princes in the court.
The three of them also understand the importance of things, so they do their best when doing things.
For example, He Fengsheng received criticism from many local gentry, even from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. However, he attracted unanimous praise from the big shots in the court, saying that he had the courage to do things, dared to go against the powerful, and had great courage.
It was still early when Feng Ziying came out of Qiao Yingjia's house.
Qiao Yingjia didn't leave any food, probably because there were still many people waiting to meet him.
Feng Ziying didn't like eating in Qiao Mansion either. There was no place like her own home, where she could be accompanied by her lovely wife and concubines, surrounded by pretty maids, and enjoy all the tenderness in the world.
Seeing that it was still early, Feng Ziying ordered Baoxiang to go back and report the news, and then he went to Daiyu's side.
Sister Lin's mind is too delicate. If she doesn't comfort her for a long time, she will inevitably have a bad temper and be in a bad mood. Then Zicuckoo will come to the door again to give hints and reminders.
The weather is gradually getting warmer, and the sedan chair is moving very quickly on the road.
Feng Ziying doesn't like riding in a sedan as much as riding a horse, but as the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, his position is too conspicuous. When he goes to places like Qi Prefecture and Qiao Mansion, he always rides in a sedan chair. When he goes to various government offices, he mostly rides on horseback.
.
When I arrived at my residence, I knocked on the door and went in, but Daiyu was not there. The person who came out was not Zijuan and Snow Goose, but Chunxian.
After asking, she said that Daiyu had gone to her house to see Li Wan, Tanchun and Xichun.
Feng Ziying is quite happy. Daiyu can take the initiative to go out, which means she is in a good mood. Tanchun and she have always been good friends. Feng Ziying is still thinking that if Tanchun really wants to get started in the future, after all calculation, she will probably only be able to enter the third room and Daiyu.
Jade is the most suitable companion.
"Miss Miaoyu and Miss Xiuyan are here, do you want to meet me?" Feng Ziying was about to leave, but Chunxian asked.
"Oh, Xiuyan is here too?" Feng Ziying was startled.
Xiuyan lived with her parents after she was released. She originally wanted to live with Daiyu, but in the end she chose another place. However, they were not far apart. She had always been on good terms with Miaoyu, so
It's normal to come here often.
"Well, Miss Xiuyan has just been here for a while and has been talking to Miss Miaoyu."
Chun Xian was fair and tall, with picturesque features. She was somewhat similar to Jin Chuan'er in appearance, and even had a similar temperament. She was also aloof and taciturn, but she could still say a few words in front of Feng Ziying. If
If it had been anyone else, I wouldn't have bothered to say more.
Feng Ziying also discovered this. Jin Chuan'er, Ling Guan next to Bao Qin, and Chun Xian next to Dai Yu all have similar temperaments, while Yu Chuan'er, Xue Yan next to Dai Yu, and Li Wan's side
Xiu Ju and the people around Xichun are all outspoken and lively. Of course, they are not as "outspoken" as Qi Si Qi, but they are not on the same level.
To say that I am a fourth-grade official and the lord of the house, but I have nothing to do but think about the difference in temperament between these little maids. It seems a bit boring to outsiders, but this is what I have brought in my past life memory.
habit.
When I was tired and exhausted from working hard in the officialdom, I also liked to read "A Dream of Red Mansions" and appreciate it carefully to relieve my fatigue.
In addition to the protagonists and supporting characters other than the Twelve Golden Hairpins and Vice Hairpins, he also read a lot of self-media articles analyzing various people in "A Dream of Red Mansions". It was inevitable that they would also involve the minor characters among the supporting characters, as well.
He also enjoyed talking about these little maids, especially some of the details.
For example, the fate of the two sisters Jin Chuan'er and Jade Chuan'er changed due to Baoyu secretly eating rouge; another example is that Xichun wanted to protect herself and was allowed to enter the painting and was punished;
The battle of wits between Zi Qi and the secret love story between Si Qi and his cousin Pan Youan.
The small details of these little stories make people enjoy reading them. They can also release emotions and relieve irritability and sleepiness after being tired.
But now all this is because of his appearance, which not only brings changes to the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but also brings completely different changes to the fate of the people in the entire Rongning Mansion.
Although the fate of these little people has changed, it has not affected Feng Ziying's interest and concern for these little people at all.
For example, Jia Rui in the book "Dream of Red Mansions" died long ago, but now he is still very nourished. The identity of Long Jinwei as a spy makes him like a fish in water. Of course, with the destruction of Jia's family, his mission will also come to an end. The next step is
It is still unclear how Captain Long placed him, but this guy wanted to hug his thigh tightly and refused to let go.
There is also Ni Er, who went from being a bachelor in the underworld to stabbing tigers as the "Drunken King Kong". By relying on himself, he transformed into a white man and gradually became a gray figure in the capital city who moved the wind and rain. The fate of this character can be said to be low and high.
—It’s getting higher and higher.
Another example is Miaoyu. After the decline of the Jia family in "A Dream of Red Mansions", she was abducted by bandits and eventually became a prostitute. "How can you ever be clean if you want to be clean? The clouds may not be empty. Poor gold and jade, and they end up trapped in the mud."
, but now that he has extended his life for the Jia family, and has revealed the fact that Miaoyu is Daiyu's half-sister, what will be the final outcome of Miaoyu?
Will the verdict on Miaoyu in the book "A Dream of Red Mansions" still come true?
Well, "empty" definitely cannot be "empty" anymore. She can no longer go back to her past practice life, but where will she go next?
If you want to compare yourself to a "mud", that would make sense. Doesn't Baoyu just mean that men are mud? Then it makes sense that Miaoyu, a "gold and jade quality", will eventually fall into the embrace of his own "mud".
So when Feng Ziying has nothing to do, she likes to recall all the small details in the book "Dream of Red Mansions", and then compares the characters in the original book around her now with what kind of ending they will have, and if she can stretch out
It is also a rare pleasure to play with the fingers and participate in the change of their destiny.
"Well, since Xiuyan is also here, as well as Miaoyu, and I haven't seen her for a while, I'll go and see her." Feng Ziying thought for a while, and nodded when she saw that it was still early.
Chunxian was busy passing the news.
Feng Ziying and Chunxian were talking, while Xiuyan and Miaoyu were talking.
In fact, Xiuyan didn't come very long, just two sticks of incense earlier than Feng Ziying.
She is still wearing a moon-white plain embroidered thin jacket, but the Miao Changguan on her head is no longer worn. Her favorite paddy green satin-trimmed vest has been replaced by a light pink long vest of the same color, and a bright yellow embroidered vest.
The silk ribbon was tied casually, but under her feet were plain satin embroidered shoes custom-made by Tayunfang, the most famous brand in the capital city.
Just from the change in this sister's dress, Xiuyan could feel that the mentality of her best friend in the past seemed to be a little different.
The shoes in Tayunfang are not cheap. A pair of the ones usually sold on the counter can't be bought for less than two or three taels of silver. A slightly better pair costs five or six taels. Like the pair of satin embroidered shoes worn by Miao Yu, they look plain.
, but they are very popular with the ladies of wealthy families in Beijing who worship Buddhism and Taoism. A pair sells for about thirty taels, which can be regarded as the Yangjie Zhou and Ferragamo of this era.
There is also the silk ribbon around the waist. Although Xiuyan doesn't know it very well, she has seen it worn by Mrs. Wang of Rongguo Mansion when she went to the Buddhist temple to worship Buddha. Although it was a few years ago, because of the special color and unique style, she
My impression is that it won’t be cheap either.
Naturally, Xiuyan didn't know that this was actually a gift given by Daiyu on her half-sister's birthday. She bought it from Caixialou in Beijing, which specializes in selling Suzhou ribbons. One piece costs sixteen taels of silver.
, it can be regarded as the Hermès among belt sweat towels.
