Number of romantic figures

Chapter 264
Although I have seen news about Jurchens in various mansion newspapers for a long time, and I can feel all kinds of things from Liaodong outside the customs in my life, such as bear paws, ginseng antlers, tiger skins, etc. at home, but when I come to this world, It was the first time Feng Ziying saw the Jurchens head-on.

The threat of the Jurchens has become increasingly prominent, but from Feng Ziying's observation, the mainstream view of the imperial court still did not put the threat of the Jurchens as the first, or at most raised it to the second threat after the Tatars in the north. This can be seen from the fact that Xuan Da Governor is still the first governor of military affairs established by Da Zhou, and is still the first priority guarantee in terms of military pay.

However, this does not mean that no one in the imperial court was aware of this. Li Chengliang's abandonment of the Six Forts of Kuandian and the construction of the city by the slave chieftain Nurhachi in Hetuala greatly stimulated those in the imperial court who had been worried about the rapid expansion of Jianzhou Jurchen forces. A faction of power.

The abandonment of the six fortresses in Kuandian made Jianzhou Jurchen's expansion outside the customs more free and aggressive, and at the same time made Liaodong Town's isolated status increasingly prominent. This sense of crisis has already had a certain influence in the court, but Generally speaking, being harassed by the Tatars from the north and the Japanese on the sea from the east, and the current situation in the southwest, it was still difficult for Dazhou to spare more attention to deal with the threat from the northeast.

Of course, the most critical issue is financial difficulties. This is a fundamental issue that has endangered the normal operation of the entire Great Zhou court, and the most affected is military affairs.

"The Jurchens are coming to pay tribute again? Such a large scale?" Looking at the Jurchens rushing away, Feng Ziying roughly estimated that there were at least a hundred people.

He had the impression that the imperial court had begun to tighten restrictions on the Jurchens' tribute. Generally speaking, there were no more than 50 tribute missions. Why did this group have hundreds of people?

Feng Ziying's casual words attracted a man next to him who folded his arms and sneered: "Hmph, what is this? When they entered the city, they had already left in a group. If they add up, there may be even more people. "

"A group of people assigned? How come a group of people were assigned?" Feng Ziying was taken aback, and at the same time looked at the man in front of him.

About 40 years old, with a knife-shaped face and deep forehead wrinkles, which should be the reason for traveling for a long time, he looks a bit old, and his accent is like a person from Shaanxi, but mixed with some Liaodong accents.

"Why can't they be divided into a group of people? They are all Han Chinese from Liaodong, and the businessmen from our side are all busy selling goods..." The smile on the man's face became more serious.

"Have you verified the identities of these people?" Feng Ziying didn't think it was disobedient, but still asked.

The man also looked Feng Ziying up and down for a while, and then snorted softly: "Young man, don't mind your own business, I have nothing to do for your lord."

Feng Ziying laughed, this is an interesting person, nodded: "Creating trouble? Well, I'm really not too afraid of causing trouble for my father, and it's a skill to be able to do it for him."

Seeing that Feng Ziying's mouth is so hard, the knife-faced man is a little surprised. He said everything so clearly. He didn't expect the other party to be so crazy. It seems that he has some background. But after thinking about it, he is not willing to say more, after all Talking too much is not beneficial to others or yourself.

Seeing that guy turned around and wanted to leave without chewing, Feng Ziying didn't want to. After finally meeting someone who seemed to know something about the situation in Liaodong, how could he let him go so easily?
"Hey, brother, why did you leave without saying a word?" Feng Ziying stretched out her hand to stop the other party, "You haven't answered my question yet, I really want to hear your answer."

"Hmph, my answer is useless. If you really want to know more, then go to Liaodong and take a look, or you can watch it at Shanhaiguan Pass, and you can see it clearly." Some contemptuously glanced at Feng Ziying, Swinging away Feng Ziying's hand with one hand, the man wanted to leave.

Feng Ziying made a slight effort with his hand, and the other party also sensed something, retracting and pushing his hand, he avoided Feng Ziying's obstruction, and passed sideways, but he was still a little surprised at Feng Ziying's strength.

In fact, Feng Ziying didn't try his best, but just wanted to try the other party. He felt that this man still had some strength, and he was probably from the army.

"Brother stay here, younger brother sincerely wants to know the situation. If there is a chance, I will naturally report the situation to the imperial court." Feng Ziying followed the other party closely, and followed behind the other party.

The man faltered, but then he continued to move forward, "Hmph, why is the court not aware of this? These are all transactions in broad daylight, and people are not afraid of this at all. Besides, the Jurchen's coming to pay tribute is also the court's responsibility. Regulations?"

"Since that's the case, why should you be so indignant?" Feng Ziying was not polite, and walked side by side with the other party.

The knife-faced man has already realized that the young man in front of him is probably not an ordinary person, he is probably a son of an official, otherwise he would not be so interested in such a situation.

But if it was an ordinary official's child, it wouldn't be so entangled. Moreover, the issue of verifying the identity of the person who left was mentioned, which is not something ordinary people can think of.

"It's not filled with righteous indignation, but I'm just a little disappointed that the court is so slack and negligent towards this great enemy." Seeing that he couldn't get rid of Feng Ziying, the man simply slowed down to see what this guy wanted to do.

Seeing him slowing down, Feng Ziying also smiled slightly, "Slack is a bit slack, but if it is said to be negligent, it may not be obvious." Feng Ziying said slowly.

"Oh?" The knife-faced man was surprised, as if he didn't believe it, "little brother, what do you say?"

Feng Ziying stood still and cupped his hands slightly: "Feng Keng and Feng Ziying at Xiaqingtan Academy have not yet asked your brother's name."

"Liaodong Zhao led the teaching." The man with a knife face straightened his face, and also clasped his fists in a salute.

Zhao rate to teach?Feng Ziying was somewhat familiar, but it was a bit vague. I had never had any contact with Liaodong. If I had any impressions, it was probably the remnants of the "History of Ming Dynasty", which meant that this person should be a character.

"Brother Zhao." Feng Ziying was not polite, "My little brother has always been very concerned about the situation in Liaodong, but because there is no more news, so I take the liberty to bother you..."

"Although Zhao is not a scholar, he still knows the name of Qingtan Academy, Zhao. I didn't expect that the little brother came from Qingtan Academy. They all say that Qingtan Academy is a model of scholars in the north. He dares to speak out to the court. Look at it. It’s true to say so.” These days, no matter who they are, they still respect scholars, and Qingtan Academy now has the name of the No. [-] Academy in the Northland.

Among other things, there are disciples from Liaodong, Wanquan and Xuanfu in this department of Qiuwei who are in Shuntian for reference. Among them, Ji Zideng is from Liaodong, but this guy has lived in his hometown since he was a child. Daxing's uncle's family has not been back to Liaodong for many years, and he knows little about the situation in Liaodong. In addition, he is ten years older than Feng Ziying, so he is not too familiar with Feng Ziying.

"Brother Zhao, you are being polite. There is a saying in Qingtan Academy's motto: family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, and care about everything. Scholars like me naturally dare not be descendants. This Liaodong is related to the rise and fall of the family and the country. I heard some of it two years ago. The news, but it’s all just a few words, fragmented and difficult to understand the whole picture, I have to meet Brother Zhao today, and I hope Brother Zhao will not hesitate to enlighten me.”

Feng Ziying wasn't polite either, and she was afraid that Zhao Lijiao would not say more, so she pondered for a while and said, "My father is Feng Tang, the general of the Shenwu Army. He is now the commander in chief of Yulin. The situation in Liaodong is also of concern, but later my father went to Yulin, but the situation in Liaodong is still on my mind, so..."

Zhao Ratejiao was taken aback, only then did he realize that the person in front of him was actually the son of Feng Tang.

Zhao Lengjiao is a frontier general from Jingluwei. He was a Wu Jinshi in the 26th year of Yuanxi. He worked in Gansu Town for many years before he was transferred to Liaodong Town. He is no stranger to this veteran general.

The Feng family has worked in Datong Town for many years. Feng Qin, Feng Han, and Feng Tang all served as the commander-in-chief of Datong Town, and they are well-known in Datong.

It took only three years for Feng Tang to resign as the commander-in-chief of Datong, and he returned to serve as the commander-in-chief of Yulin Town. It has completely controlled Yulin Town, which has always been the weakest and most complicated of the Nine Sides.

Seeing the change in Zhao Ledjiao's attitude, Feng Ziying realized that she was a disciple of Wu Xun, or that it was really unusual for the Feng family to have taken root in the Nine Frontier Army for many years.

Even if ordinary warriors are respectful to civil servants, they still keep them at a respectful distance. If you want to gain their respect, trust and closeness, it depends on how skillful you are as a civil servant.

But I have this natural close relationship, and I can get closer to the other party a lot at once.

The change in Zhao's attitude also made Feng Ziying quite at ease, "Brother Zhao, I'm afraid he hasn't had dinner yet? Why don't we let my younger brother be the host, how about we two get drunk together?"

Zhao Lijiao didn't expect Feng Ziying to be so bold and generous, he was worthy of being a disciple of Wu Xun, this was more to his taste, and he was not polite, so he nodded generously in agreement, the left and right were also hungry, just in time to bother him.

Feng Ziying found a restaurant, and it was time to serve guests, so she found an elegant place, and ordered the food and wine to be served as soon as possible.

While waiting for the food to be served, Feng Ziying also asked why Zhao Lediao came to the capital. Only then did he know that Zhao Lediao had been dismissed for two years.

Zhao Lijiao didn't say who he was looking for, so Feng Ziying naturally wouldn't ask.

The appointment and dismissal of military generals is usually carried out by the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Ministry of Procuratorate, and the Ministry of Military Affairs. Chai Ke, who was transferred from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Feng Ziying only knew about these people, but they were not familiar with them.
