Number of romantic figures

Chapter 2493 The greater the ambition of the Guizi scroll, everyone is looking forward to it

Wang Ren left angrily, and what shocked him even more was that Wang Xifeng actually went to the second uncle Prince Teng's house.

When I insinuated that Wang Xifeng was now serving as a concubine outside, or even gave birth to a child, I didn't expect my second uncle to ignore him at all.

In the end, he simply turned his face and kicked himself out, leaving only him talking to Wang Xifeng.

This simply made him puzzled. Could it be that Wang Xifeng made some money in business, which made the second uncle jealous?
"What do you think?" Wang Ziteng leaned back in his chair peacefully and asked, "Feng Ziying is so generous, cement business is the lifeblood of Shanshan businessmen."

"I don't know about that, but I feel like he doesn't care too much about it. If it's really their Feng family who want to do it, how can it be Shanshan merchants to take the lead?" Wang Xifeng is also very casual. It is true that she likes female sex, but outsiders can't figure it out at all."

"I can't figure it out either. Niu Jizong and I were advised to surrender voluntarily, disarmed and returned to the fields, but he also urged us to stay in the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion for the time being. It seems that there is some deep meaning in it. You gave birth to all his sons for him. Looks like he should be the eldest son of their Feng family, right?" Wang Ziteng obviously did some research, "Could it be that you can't figure out what he's thinking?"

"Second Uncle, what am I? After giving birth to a son, I will keep it for myself. If it is impossible, I will marry again, right?" Wang Xifeng said indifferently, "As for him persuading Second Uncle and Niu Uncle to do this, of course there are others. Second Uncle should be vaguely aware of the truth, otherwise he wouldn’t be cooperating with him like this, would he?”

Wang Ziteng nodded slightly, saying that his niece is a little clever, it seems true, she has a way of figuring out people's thoughts.

Up to now, he is not sure what Feng Ziying intends to do, but one thing is certain, that is, Feng Ziying has great ambitions and is definitely not satisfied with being the youngest third-rank official in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

He has deeper thoughts.

It stands to reason that Feng Ziying's goal should be to go to the chief minister of the cabinet. He is only 24 now, which means that if his current amazing performance is followed, there is a high probability that he will wait for the position of minister before the age of 30.

No matter how the cabinet and other civil servants of the court think his age and resume are an eyesore, it is the most basic rule of the court to reward those who have made meritorious deeds, otherwise no one will work hard for the court.

Moreover, it is impossible for the imperial court to use some edicts and honorary officials to fool them like this time, and make some small mistakes to make up for it.

Even if Feng Ziying voluntarily reached a tacit agreement with the court, it would not work. It is impossible for the court to make this kind of thing public for all scholars and officials to know, which would also damage the prestige of the court.

At the age of 30 to Shangshu, at the age of 40, you will be a cabinet minister or even the chief assistant.

Wang Ziteng never doubted that Feng Ziying could do this.

No matter who becomes the emperor, Feng Ziying can't stop Feng Ziying from becoming the first assistant.

But is this in the interests of the Feng family?

The Feng family was born in the frontier martial arts nobles.

Martial arts in the frontier are also martial arts, and the foundation of martial arts is the army.

For example, the Four Kings and Eight Dukes were also born in Wu Xun, but the reason why they declined and were rejected by the court was because they had separated from their own roots after several generations and had no influence in the army.

Useless people naturally don't need to pay more attention or think about it, and clean it up when it should be cleaned up, especially if they don't know the current affairs, they just use it as a stepping stone.

If Feng Ziying is determined to follow the path of a civil servant, it will be no problem to be the first assistant in ten or twenty years, but what if he becomes the first assistant?
The first assistant is nothing more than the pinnacle of civil servants, but the rule of civil servants is to be an official through the imperial examination.

No one can guarantee that their children and grandchildren will be the material to study. Once they fail the imperial examination, the Feng family may quickly decline from the family of Zhongming Dingshi, especially the Feng family is not a famous scholarly family who inherits poetry and books.

It is impossible for Feng Ziying not to consider such a situation.

In a sense, if the Feng family wants to protect their own interests, they should continue to follow the original path of the Feng family, such as Li Chengliang and Ma Gui, to maintain their influence in the border town.

Even now that Li Chengliang and Ma Gui have retired and retired, the Li family and the Ma family still have considerable influence in the army, and their children can start at a high position when they enter the army, gaining more opportunities and a higher platform, and will continue to do so in the future. Have a developmental advantage over others.

If Feng Ziying does not choose this path, it can only show that Feng Ziying has greater ambitions.

Wang Ziteng judged that the latter was more likely, that is to say, Feng Ziying didn't like the way of Li Chengliang and Ma Gui, and he was not satisfied with the first assistant, so what else?
The higher level of the first assistant is the more powerful first assistant—the minister of authority. It is self-evident what is above the minister of authority.

Wang Ziteng has not yet thought that Feng Ziying would have higher ambitions, but he thought that Feng Ziying might covet the status of a powerful minister.

Feng Ziying herself was born as a martial artist in the frontier, and the Feng family already had considerable influence in the army. If Feng Ziying can successfully cultivate enough influence and supporters in the civilian court, and then gain enough support in the army, then The embryonic form of a powerful minister is there.

More importantly, Feng Ziying has enough time and energy.

When other people can achieve Feng Ziying's current third-rank minister, they are at least over 40 years old. Even if it takes 20 years of painstaking efforts, the influence of age and physical condition will make most people give up halfway.

But Feng Ziying is different, he is only 24 years old!
Even if it takes 20 years to slowly and steadily lay the groundwork for accumulation, he is only in his 40s. He is in the prime of life, and he is in the prime of life. Who can stop him?
It was precisely because of this that Wang Ziteng was very interested and did not refuse Feng Ziying's hints and arrangements.

Of course, Wang Ziteng is not satisfied with leaving the stage of power in such a disheveled manner. He is only in his early fifties, and he is in good health. If Lian Po is old enough to make a living, he will only ask in his seventies. He thinks that he will not be able to work in ten years. As for the problem, Niu Jizong also thought so.

Although the Feng family has a great influence in the border towns, they are mainly concentrated in the four towns in the northwest and Datong, Xuanfu, Shanxi, Jizhen, and even Jingying and Denglai. Wang Ziteng thinks that he and Niu Jizong are more confident, Otherwise, Feng Ziying would not win her over.

Even now in Xuanfu Town, Jingying and Denglai Town, Wang Ziteng has the confidence to recruit a group of people. Niu Jizong also has a considerable foundation in Xuanfu Town, Shanxi Town and Ji Town.

Now Wang Ziteng wanted to think carefully about what path Feng Ziying planned to take, and what role he and Niu Jizong could play in it.

The more ambitious Feng Ziying is, the more willing he is to help Feng Ziying, which means that he can play a greater role. At his age, what else is there to be afraid of?I'm afraid he's not ambitious enough.

But although Feng Ziying is young, the city is not shallow.

Wang Xifeng can only be regarded as his concubine, this girl is indeed a bit coquettish and unrestrained, and it may be this that attracted Feng Ziying, so she hooked up with her.

Wang Ziteng didn't think that he could find out some of Feng Ziying's thoughts from Wang Xifeng. If Wang Xifeng couldn't hide secrets here, Wang Ziteng would be worried instead.

However, Feng Ziying and Wang Xifeng had a son, and I heard that Xue Baochai was also pregnant. These two women are close relatives, and it is of course a good thing to have a blood bond with the Feng family.

"Sister Feng, since you have followed him and have a son, then manage your current business well. What's the matter if he didn't say anything about this child?"

After making up his mind, Wang Ziteng calmed down, anyway, Feng Ziying would come to meet him at dinner anyway.

"How can I say it?" Although she knew it all, Wang Xifeng was still a little uncomfortable, "Can I still take it back to the Feng family? Sister Qiao is going to get married sooner or later, so I have to leave a child to take care of me? It is impossible to enter the Feng Mansion, so I am quite satisfied with it now."

Xue Baochai is his cousin, and Daiyu has always been very close, but he secretly had an affair with their husband and gave birth to a child, so he didn't think it was a big deal.

It's not easy for Wang Ziteng to intervene in this kind of matter, and he doesn't even know what to do best, so it's best not to ask too many questions.

"Forget it, you are so lucky to raise this child, maybe there will be no luck in the future?" Wang Ziteng Ruo thought deeply, "Feng Ziying is not a thing in the pool, it seems like this now, but there may be more in the future. The future that people look forward to."

Wang Xifeng's phoenix eyes flickered, and she didn't quite understand the meaning of her second uncle's words, as if she meant something, but she didn't dare to think deeply.

Seeing that Wang Xifeng seemed to have realized something, Wang Ziteng waved his hand: "Don't think too much, Ziying is a person who even I can't see clearly, so I have to try to understand him. In my opinion, Feng Tang was able to give birth to such a son, which was the blessing of the Feng family for several lifetimes. If he dared to say that he was a tiger in front of Feng Ziying, then Feng Ziying might be a dragon,..."

These words are even more sensitive. Even a woman like Wang Xifeng understands what the dragon refers to, so she subconsciously murmured: "Second Uncle, your words are too high on him, right..."

"Let's not talk about this topic. Ziying is coming over for dinner. You rest here now and see your aunt and the others. You will also meet at the dinner party. He has a lot of things to do now, so don't bother him too much. ..." Prince Teng paused, as if pointing something.

What Wang Ziteng said made Wang Xifeng's face twitch like a fire.

But Wang Ziteng didn't care, firstly, he was an elder, and secondly, Feng Ziying was really important, "There's nothing to be ashamed of, your child was born for her, and you're still under [-] now, so he's good at matters of men and women." , inevitably greedy,..."

Wang Xifeng's fine silver teeth were almost gnawed, so she could only lower her head, but she couldn't help being ashamed in her heart.

No matter how the second uncle became so cautious and nagging now, it seemed that Ziying was far better than his own niece in his mind.
