Number of People

  Chapter 558 T-roll united front?

   "The disciple will write it as soon as possible after returning." Feng Ziying did not refuse, and this is also a move he is very optimistic about, and its future utility will exceed many people's imagination.

  The strategy of opening the sea has reached a critical moment. Of course, he can't lose the chain, and he must use all his strength to help Qi Yongtai gain a firm foothold in the cabinet, the entire northern scholars, and even the entire Dazhou scholar-officials.

  Qi Yongtai is currently his biggest backer, and as a minister of officials, Qi Yongtai has unparalleled help for his future.

And the better Qi Yongtai's development momentum in the future, the more help he will have, but the northern scholars have not been the first assistant in the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, at most they are the second assistant, so Feng Ziying has to see if he can History cannot be changed.

  At present, the Great Zhou Dynasty is also in a relatively chaotic stage. Due to the promotion of the strategy of opening the sea, the interests of the North and the South are now intertwined.

  The interests of some southerners have been integrated with the north, but on the contrary, there are some contradictions within the south, so now there is also a state of "you have me, and I have you" among the scholars in the north and south.

   This is also a change after the original solidified interest structure was broken. This situation will take several years until the interest structure is re-solidified before a new pattern will form.

"Well, Ziying, you have done a lot of things in the past few years, and the emperor and the princes can see it." Qi Yongtai stroked his beard and smiled in satisfaction, "Although Ye Fangli and the six princes all have their own Thoughts, but it is impossible for them to turn a blind eye to the young people who really perform well. You have done a good job in the past two years, just keep this momentum."

   "Disciple understands." Feng Ziying also knew very well that it is extraordinary for her to be in charge of compiling the sixth rank at her own age.

   If you want to continue to be promoted, it is estimated that it will be difficult. Even if you make contributions, it is estimated that Emperor Yonglong and the court can only give some compensation from other aspects, such as sealing his wife and son.

  If you want to advance to a higher level in your position, it may take two or three years.

Before the age of twenty, if you can only advance to one level or even two levels, get to the sixth rank or from the fifth rank, and try to get down as soon as possible to take charge of one party, you will have a chance to make the most intuitive and detailed observation of this era learn.

   Then with this experience, you can return to the central government with more confidence to consider more.

"By the way, Ru Jun said, you and the eldest wife want to marry Shen's daughter, and he has already made an engagement. Then how do you think about your third wife's marriage? He said you have someone to choose?" Qi Yongtai suddenly remembered something. , looking gloomy.

Shen Yu was the same year as Qiao Yingjia, and the Shen family was also a well-known family in Suzhou. It was reasonable for Qiao Yingjia to fight for Feng Ziying, but it also made Qi Yongtai a little regretful. The problem was that neither he nor Qiao Yingjia had a suitable daughter in their family, so they had to give up, but Qiao Yingjia Qi Yongtai was still a little upset about taking the lead.

   It's like something everyone shared, how come you are ahead?

  So when Qiao Yingjia mentioned that Feng Ziying had a suitable candidate for the third house in a vague and mysterious way a few days ago, Qi Yongtai was even more unhappy.

  Feng Ziying's heart sank, she didn't expect Qiao Shi to "betray" herself first.

  But my mother hasn't made an agreement yet. Before meeting Miaoyu, my mother will never agree easily.

  But at this time, it is impossible for him to evade, and it is also a good thing to simply let Qi Yongtai attack.

   "Master Qi, this disciple indeed has a suitable candidate, that is, the daughter of Lin Hai, the inspector of salt in the Lianghuai River, who was rescued by the disciple in Linqing. She has a predestined relationship with the disciple..."

Before Feng Ziying finished speaking, she was interrupted roughly by Qi Yongtai: "What are you talking about, Lin Hai's daughter? No way! Ziying, are you out of your mind? Don't you know who Lin Hai is? Xunyan Yushi, hum Hmph, that's all for the other salt inspectors, Lianghuai inspector salt inspector, didn't Qiao Rujun and your father tell you?"

  Qi Yongtai's face was frighteningly gloomy, and even his tone became colder than ever before, obviously irritated by this incident.

  What's going on with Qiao Yingjia, why didn't he stop the marriage?

  He thinks he made a good marriage, so he doesn't care?

   Thinking of this, Qi Yongtai became even more annoyed.

  Feng Ziying thought about Qi Yongtai's disapproval of this marriage, but she didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so strong, and she was surprised.

"Master Qi, this disciple knows about Duke Lin's identity and situation, but Mr. Lin is seriously ill this time. I have already met Mr. Lin in Yangzhou. His lifespan is short, which is about two or three months." Feng Ziying lowered her voice. road.

"Oh?" Qi Yongtai knew that Lin Ruhai couldn't afford to be sick, but he didn't expect that the other party was seriously ill or even had a very short lifespan. If this was the case, it would be much better, but this is still not a good marriage, "No, this marriage is not good. Appropriate, Ziying, there are so many good girls in the capital for you to choose, why did you choose the daughter of Lin Hai? Although he is also a scholar, but..., hmph, he is a private minister of the Supreme Emperor, and the two Huaihe Rivers are transferred to the Salt Envoy Si Yamen , is actually the private treasury of the Supreme Emperor, don't you know?"

"I know a little bit, but..." Feng Ziying was interrupted by Qi Yongtai again: "I know you still want this marriage? The transfer of salt in the Huaihe River and the Huaihe River, the Si Yamen and the salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River have no clear connection. Sooner or later, it will be cleared. You go What does the emperor think about getting involved in this muddy water? Of course, the emperor is still here, and the emperor will have nothing, but how many years can we wait for this?"

"Besides, Lin Hai has handled many dirty things for the Supreme Emperor in the past few years. The Emperor knows it but keeps silent. It does not mean that the Emperor will always let it go or forget it. After all, it is time to settle accounts. Lin Hai is the two of them. Once the eyes are closed, everything will be fine, but the successor must have an explanation to the top and bottom, and will definitely..."

  Qi Yongtai's earnestness moved Feng Ziying very much, but he must be married to Lin Daiyu, and he still wants Qi Yongtai to fight.

   "Master Qi, these disciples all understand, in fact, the disciples have already informed the emperor last time,..."

  Feng Ziying's words startled Qi Yongtai, his face became a little strange, and he said after a long time, "Then what did the emperor say?"

"The emperor was actually a little displeased at the beginning. Although he didn't show it like you, Master Qi, the disciple could feel his disappointment and dissatisfaction. However, the disciple also told the emperor that Duke Lin would go, and this happened to be the place where When opening the sea, Yangzhou and even the south of the Yangtze River are just the best time,... Presumably the Supreme Emperor will not be able to say anything, which is beneficial to the country and the people, even the emperor will take the lead in setting an example. , how can Yangzhou salt merchants be an exception? What's more, this is not a donation, but a business, a business that makes many people regret it too late or be overjoyed."

  Feng Ziying spoke in a low voice, but said something about the situation inside.

   Who is Qi Yongtai, he waved his hand to stop Feng Ziying from continuing.

  For him, the resources and plans are not important, the key lies in the attitude of Emperor Yonglong.

  Since Emperor Yonglong knew it well and King Zhongshun was still willing to take the initiative to participate, it meant that Emperor Yonglong had approved this matter, and would even take the initiative to seek a compromise with the Supreme Emperor on this position.

After thinking for a long time, Qi Yongtai felt that he couldn't find any reason to object, and his disciple also expressed the idea that he could use this opportunity to take over many resources and contacts of Lin Hai. That being said, it's quite rich.

   "Ziying, you have to be cautious about this matter, are you sure you won't live long with Lin Hai's body?"

   This is very important. If Lin Hai really gets through it and wants to continue to serve as the inspector of salt, then this marriage is absolutely inappropriate.

The special relationship between Lin Hai and the Supreme Emperor is a hurdle that cannot be bypassed. Death is like a lamp going out. Whether you pick up the leaks or inherit everything else, you will lose your support in the end. It is just some leftovers, but if Lin Hai is alive, Survived, that is two different things.

   "It can't be fake." Feng Ziying nodded solemnly, her face was calm, but she was also a little worried in her heart, what if there was another accident?

   "Since you are here, and you love this girl so much, what can you say about being a teacher?" Qi Yongtai nodded, "Get married first, delay marriage for two years, and it is not too late to come after the filial piety period."

  ******

  Feng Ziying was a little bit adrift on the way home.

  The matter was resolved with ease, and it really surprised him that it went so smoothly.

  However, he also felt Qi Shi's contempt for Lin Hai, the private minister of Emperor Yuanxi.

  Even though Lin Ruhai does have quite rich heritage and resources, Qi Yongtai is not willing to let himself be contaminated in his heart.

This Master Qi's temperament is still a bit too upright. In contrast, Master Qiao's attitude is the same as Master Qi's disapproval, and the reason for the objection is also the same, but Qiao Yingjia is more worried that Lin Ruhai is not only behind the Supreme Emperor, but may even There is also Prince Yizhong, which Feng Ziying did not dare to mention to Qi Yongtai.

  After ruling out the crisis and risks, Qiao Yingjia is very supportive of accepting Lin Hai's "inheritance" in its entirety.

   At this point, the subtle difference between Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia can be clearly seen.

  However, Feng Ziying didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. It’s just that their personal styles are inconsistent, and they all lead to the same goal. If they are consistent in basic ideas and interests, they can determine that the relationship between the two will not be affected much by these aspects.

In the temple and in the officialdom, there has never been so much black and white, and more often it is in a state of gradual discoloration. Sometimes he may be more inclined to one side, and sometimes he may be Support one side more, but will not deviate from one's own main line bottom line and basic disk.

  Qiao Yingjia, Qi Yongtai and even himself are largely on the same line. Of course, Feng Ziying hopes to bring more people to his line in the next step. Maybe this is the united front?
