When Feng Ziying set off to leave Yangzhou, it was already five days later.
Five days is enough time for several people to get started practicing state affairs, and with the help of Wang Wenyan, Duan Xigui and others, they can learn quickly. Although they still seem to understand some of the more subtle and professional aspects and need to be further familiar with them, there are
Feng Ziying's card is up, and they still have the opportunity to try and make mistakes.
Of course, they don't dare to decide on major matters, which can be blamed on Feng Ziying.
The day before the imperial censor entered Yangzhou, Feng Ziying happened to leave Yangzhou and missed it just in time.
So when the censor asked about Lian Guo and Su Lunding angrily, all the responsibility was put on Xiao Feng Xiuzuan. As for quarreling with him, he should go to the capital city.
The Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate was also a very suitable candidate. In fact, they came earlier than the censor from the capital. However, the new right deputy censor of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate was transferred from the Jixunsi Langzhong of the Ministry of Civil Affairs of the capital, and his rank was upgraded.
Level one, but it makes people feel like being exiled.
However, Feng Ziying knew that Jiang Chengxi, the censor of Nanjing, was an early disciple of Qi Yongtai. In theory, he would call him senior brother. He had served in the civil affairs department of the capital for many years. There were various reasons for his sudden move south.
On the one hand, it is to prevent Qi Yongtai from being criticized by others in the court, saying that his family is the only one in the official department. On the other hand, senior brother Jiang has been in the official department, so moving his position this time is also to prepare for better development in the future.
Base.
This happened to coincide with the affairs of the salt merchant who was in trouble with Feng Ziying, so the two of them had already had a tacit understanding, and they had to ensure that they achieved their goals while leaving appropriate backup resources.
Letting the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate take over would not only prevent the Capital Procuratorate from intervening too much, but also allow Senior Brother Jiang to quickly open up the situation in Nanjing.
Five days were enough for Su Lunding and the others to pry open the mouths of countless people and find enough evidence.
Of course, whether some things will be turned out depends on the subsequent situation. This is a knife in the first place. Hold it in your hand, how far it is cut, and when it is sheathed, all depend on the development of the situation.
After the various sealed accounts were almost cleared, they were all handed over to the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, including three companies with millions in cash and a large number of rare treasures. They were all registered and handed over to the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate. This made the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate
The procuratorate was also overjoyed.
It was not easy to wait for such an opportunity. Although it was said that the silver, jewels, land, deeds and houses had to be handed over to the court, even if the follow-up work was completed, it would be a rare achievement.
This will undoubtedly greatly improve the reputation of the newly appointed right deputy censor of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, and also allow the censors of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate who have been huddled in Nanjing to eat porridge for so many years, finally feel proud.
Jia Lian accompanied Feng Ziying all the way to Beijing.
He also needs to return to the capital to report to the Jia family about the situation in Yangzhou. Some things also need to be clarified.
However, after taking a stake in Tonghai Bank, Jia Lian's thoughts on Rongguo Mansion became much less important.
He thought very clearly that even if he could inherit the title in the future, after the attack, he would be a second-class general with a false title. The most he could have in his hands would be the house of the Duke of Rongguo, and
This has to be shared with the second bedroom.
Baoyu, Jia Lan, Jia Huan, and the concubine Jia Cong below them all craned their necks to look at it, and thought about the current decline of Jia's house, and how much will be left in the house by that day.
?
If the eldest girl can really gain power in the palace, the most proud person will definitely be Baoyu and Jialan. My big house will be at the back again, and it may not be as aggrieved as my father is now.
If it fails to gain power, or even causes disaster, it goes without saying that with all the people, how can there be a complete egg? Then it is really better to work hard and lay a foundation in Yangzhou as soon as possible.
The March river breeze comes slowly.
Feng Ziying and Jia Lian stood at the bow of the boat.
"It seems that Uncle Lin's condition is not bad. It is much better than originally expected." Jia Lian had a jade-faced silk scarf and broad belt with wide sleeves. There was also some complexity in his words, "They say fireworks will fall in Yangzhou in March, but we are going to
When I return to the capital, I really don’t want to go back.”
"Why, are you so happy to miss Shu? My second sister-in-law is still waiting for you." Feng Ziying chuckled, "Then Guirong is so loved by you?"
"Ziying, you haven't gotten married yet, so you don't understand what it's like." Jia Lian shook his head, "Your second sister-in-law has such a strong personality that even a man can't stand it. I've had enough in the house all these years. If that silver
If Zhuang's affairs can be handled smoothly, I would rather stay in Yangzhou."
"Yinzhuang will definitely run smoothly. Kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. Now we have killed the monkeys who don't understand the rules. Don't the other monkeys understand the situation? Then they are not worthy of being salt merchants." Feng Ziying said casually: "But will you keep them?
You should think more about it in Yangzhou. Yinzhuang will also set up a headquarters in the capital, which is far away from Yangzhou, one to the south and one to the north. If you are interested, you can also set up a headquarters in the capital city."
"Well, I'll think about it some more, but I still tend to stay in Yangzhou." Jia Lian hesitated for a moment and then made up his mind, "Sister Feng will definitely not come to Yangzhou. I just want to be at ease."
"Haha, are you still full of energy like this hidden beauty in a golden house?" Feng Ziying joked.
"Ziying, you are just like a crow who thinks pigs are stupid. You don't think so." Jia Lian pouted, "The You sisters in Maxiang Hutong are the sisters of Sister-in-law Zhen. You have already pocketed them. My wife will give you two
Maid, how much do you have, including the Xiangling that Xue Datou gave you?"
"Second brother Lian, it's two different things. I haven't touched the You sisters yet." Feng Ziying waved her hands quickly.
"Then you haven't touched her yet. I've heard that it smells like blue eyes and a tall nose. It's very different. How long can you endure it?" Jia Lian disagreed. "What man doesn't like beautiful women, as well as food and sex?"
If you don't like it, then you just like that one bite. But I don't see Qin Zhong's enchanting appearance making people love him. Even Baoyu is addicted to it. Brother Rong is also interested in Qin Zhong, and the King of Beijing...
"
Feng Ziying felt uncomfortable as soon as she heard this. It seems that having good taste has become a fashion these days. Even Jia Lian, who was originally a womanizer, seemed to be yearning for her.
"Baoyu is too young to understand, so Uncle Zhengshi doesn't care about it?" Feng Ziying frowned.
"Now the whole government is probably focused on building the garden, so where can we take care of other things?" Jia Lian sighed, "The master has sent me another letter, urging us to quickly implement the money. Now it's all the government and the middle school who fill it first."
But the deficit is getting bigger and bigger, and the Zhen family is also lying, saying that there is no money, and Uncle Lin will use this money to put out the fire."
Feng Ziying also shook her head.
It was not easy for him to interfere in this matter. Several noble concubines were competing in building gardens, but they didn't know that the garden would be so long-lasting once it was built, and they didn't care about their future livelihood.
The key lies in how Emperor Yonglong views such things. These people can try to figure out the emperor's heart, but they insist on showing off.
Jia Lian also sensed Feng Ziying's disapproval, but he also couldn't say much.
The old lady also fully supports the matter that the two gentlemen have decided, and with the relationship between the noble concubine, she has to push through this hurdle no matter what. Once the eldest girl is favored, the Jia family can take this opportunity to regain its momentum.
It's easy to get the money back.
The group moved very quickly, without any delay on the way, and even returned to Beijing following the censor's accusation.
Although this trip to Yangzhou didn't take too long, it felt like a long time in Feng Ziying's heart. It was really because there were too many things to do during the trip to Yangzhou, which was almost non-stop. In addition, they had to worry about practicing state affairs after they came.
They are adapting, so they are also a little tired.
But it is impossible to rest. A large group of people sitting in the court are already restless. Not only the salt affairs, but also the salt merchants are like a poke in the waist of some people.
They could no longer sit still and started making noises like crazy.
Of course, different people have different interpretations of the matter of the salt merchants. In the mind of Emperor Yonglong, Feng Ziying undoubtedly did something that he wanted to do most but never dared to do.
Whether this matter is good or bad depends on how well Feng Ziying does it.
Other places can take a breather, but we need to go to the Zhongshu Department immediately.
After saying goodbye to Jia Lian, Feng Ziying went to Zhongshu Ke without stopping.
When he saw Feng Ziying, Guan Yingzhen was even more excited and immediately called Feng Ziying aside alone to ask what happened.
The huge profits from the Dongfan Salt Service are even more important. As for the salt merchants, it seems that Guan Yingzhen doesn't pay much attention to it and doesn't care much about it. This also makes Feng Ziying a little strange.
"What's so surprising? You shouldered the king's mandate and left. Everything must give way to the current difficulties of the court. Although the salt merchants are powerful and well-connected, they refer to the entire group, not just one or two people. Of course, this
One or two people may have some connections, but it is impossible for the entire Jiangnan scholars to wave the flag and cheer for them, right? Everyone is just waiting for you to come up with a suitable explanation. You Dongfan Salt Affairs also chose two salt farms to participate.
It’s done extremely well and will probably make a lot of sounds disappear immediately…”
Guan Yingzhen's nonchalance made Feng Ziying finally breathe a sigh of relief, "Master, I'm afraid the impeachment of me has come to Beijing? The censor is probably very angry..."
"What decent official doesn't receive a few bullets? Mediocre people, people who don't do anything are too lazy to have anyone impeach them. But it is indeed groundbreaking that you started to receive bullets at such a young age, but it is also an honor.
!”
Guan Yingzhen's words are not without pride, and they can make the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate furious. This can only show Feng Ziying's ability. As for what role the bullets can play, huh, there are really two theories.
