He Fengsheng was obviously much calmer.
"Ziying, Mengzhang, we must reach a consensus on this matter. If we all have our own opinions, even if we go back to lobby others, it will be difficult to achieve our goal."
He Fengsheng's words made Feng Ziying and Fan Jingwen nod in agreement.
"Master Cui's attitude is ambiguous. I think this should be a breakthrough point. If I can convince him first, then I will go to Master Wu. He is a subordinate of Master Cui and is from the same hometown as me. But where Master Wei is, we have to see Ziying and Mengzhang. As for Mr. Sun, I think he is the censor. It doesn’t make much sense for him to object to such things, because it does not fall within the scope of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. As for after returning, it will also take his turn. It’s time for him to interrupt.”
He Fengsheng's words were full of reality. Sun Juxiang could point fingers in this group of people, but this was not within the scope of his responsibilities. Even his objections were useless. There would be no more drama for him after he returned.
"Mengzhang, please be patient. Let's follow our path and do whatever we need to do. But we can focus on the shipbuilding factories in Ningbo and Quanzhou to understand their wishes and see under what circumstances they will do so." I am willing to go to Liaodong and Denglai to go to the shipbuilding yards to see what new insights the maritime merchants here have on trade with Japan and North Korea. The rest will follow the established arrangements. It is estimated that the merchants here in the south of the Yangtze River are already cheering. , except for those smuggling merchants."
Seeing that Fan Jingwen was a little depressed, Feng Ziying realized that if she was not in a high mood, it would definitely have a negative impact on others, so she immediately cheered up.
"On the matter of Denglai, we northern scholars must first form a unified point of view. If necessary, I can talk to Wang Gong, Niu Gong, Master Chen and other martial arts officials, and also ask them to mobilize their personal connections. We must work hard to put this planned idea into practice. The integration of Shandong, Liaoning and Northeast Zhili is related to the safety of the capital. I believe that both the cabinet and the court will understand the importance of this matter."

Outside Panxiang Temple of Xuan Tomb in Wu County.
It's sunny at the beginning of winter, with clear water and long sky, which is particularly pleasant.
This is the place where Yu Taixuan, the governor of Qingzhou in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, was buried. Yu Taixuan was an open-minded and benevolent man, and was well-known among the people. According to legend, tens of thousands of swallows came with mud in their mouths during the burial, and the tomb was instantly formed. The swallows were also called black birds, and this place was called Xuan Tomb. .
The Panxiang Temple was built close to the mountains and rivers, next to the tombs. The waterside area around the Xuan Tomb was named Yanziwu because swallows lived here, and there was originally a dilapidated dock here.
It's just that Wubao has long been dilapidated, with only some ruins left. I don't know if it is the place where Murong Bo and Wang Yuyan lived in "The Eight Parts of the Dragon".
Wang Wenyan waited quietly outside the temple.
He came for three days, asking for a meeting every day, but he did not hand over Lin Ruhai's letter.
He was turned away for three days. It is said that Master Jingyuan is not stubborn in character, but does not want to see outsiders. Wang Wenyan sent a message, but this Buddhist sect does not pay attention to so many etiquette, and they did not even accept the message. I just went to report it, but the other party didn't see me. Even the abbot of the temple couldn't interfere.
Of course, Wang Wenyan had no intention of asking anyone to intervene.
This visit to Panxiang Temple is of great importance.
As Wang Wenyan came into contact with Feng Ziying more and more, he felt more and more that Feng Ziying's thinking was as unconstrained as an antelope hanging its horns.
Wang Wenyan, a young man who was only sixteen years old, actually had so many fantastic ideas that came up one after another, which impressed Wang Wenyan, who thought he had an understanding of the entire officialdom of the Zhou Dynasty.
Some ideas may seem absurd, but if you think about them carefully, you will find that they are not impossible under certain circumstances.
As Feng Ziying herself said, who would have believed that it was possible to raise debt like Kaihai before this?
Feng Ziying only talked with Wang Wenyan about some of his ideas, but did not talk about what he planned to do in the future. This was precisely what Wang Wenyan was most concerned about.
If you want to do something big, you must first have resources and a platform. This is what Feng Ziying said. It is also a new word. Although he does not understand how this word was coined, Wang Wenyan understands the meaning.
Without sufficient political influence and connections, without strong financial and livelihood support, it is obviously impossible to realize Feng Ziying's inner thoughts.
And to help Feng Ziying continue to improve and accumulate political influence and connections, and to enrich her savings and livelihood and monetary foundation, this is what Wang Wenyan wants to do.
Wang Wenyan knows very well that when he talks to Feng Ziying about what he hopes to do for him, Feng Ziying still seems to be a bit superficial, but Wang Wenyan believes that the other party will gradually accept him and then trust and rely on him.
In order to achieve this step, today's affairs of Lin Bus must be done well.
"Donor Wang, Master, please come in." Wang Wenyan lingered for a while, neither arrogant nor impetuous, and still maintained his usual demeanor until a nun came out.
"Thank you, little master." Wang Wenyan followed the nun into Panxiang Temple.
This Panxiang Temple is quiet and elegant, not large in scale, not very prosperous, and not many monks and nuns, but it has beautiful scenery. Standing on the steps inside the temple, you can see Taihu Lake across a grove of trees.
After a few twists and turns, I arrived at a quiet room in a Buddhist hall. I saw a woman in her thirties who was practicing meditation sitting in a chair on the side of the Buddhist hall, her beautiful eyes lowered, and twirling Buddhist beads in her hands.
There are not many taboos among monks. Wang Wenyan took a quick look and saw that his skin was white and his features were picturesque. No wonder Dong Weng was snatched away by the gods.
"Wang Shi, why do you want to see this poor nun?"
Wang Wenyan saw that the other party's tone was calm and calm, without much change in tone or saying much, so he handed over the letter.
The woman frowned slightly, obviously unwilling to accept the letter, but she finally accepted it.
However, after reading the letter, it was obvious that this woman could no longer maintain her original cold state. Her face was sometimes sad, sometimes reminiscing, and sometimes regretful, but in the end she slowly calmed down.
"I'm done with this poor nun. I won't see him again. Maybe in the next life..." He shook his head, obviously feeling that he was already a member of the Buddhist sect and it was no longer appropriate to talk about love in this world.
"He wants Miaoyu to return to his clan and recognize his ancestors, and the poor nun has no right to interfere, but it depends on Miaoyu herself. If Miaoyu is willing, then the poor nun has nothing to say. If Miaoyu doesn't want to, then who can We can’t force her.”
I didn't expect this woman to be so easy to talk to, which was beyond Wang Wenyan's expectations, but this was a good thing.
"Then you don't know where Miss Miaoyu is now?" Wang Wenyan asked softly.
"She is not here. She has gone to the capital with her master. I don't know where she is practicing."
Wang Wenyan was stunned. No wonder this woman was so easy to talk to. It turned out that Miaoyu was no longer here long ago and had gone to the capital city. How could she find someone at this moment? Are there more than a hundred temples inside and outside the capital?
Wang Wenyan quickly calculated that if this woman really refused to disclose Miss Miaoyu's whereabouts, it would be difficult to find her in a short time.
Even if Feng Ziying is influential in the capital city, it is also a big difficulty to be able to mobilize quickly.
Is this capital city a general reference? The entire Shuntian Prefecture is so big. If it is really the capital city, it would be the two counties of Wanping and Daxing. You might be able to find it with some effort, but if you include other prefectures and counties, , there are so many small temples in the countryside, even the government may not be able to know them all, which makes it very difficult.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Wenyan said in a deep voice: "Master, I'm afraid Mr. Lin also told Master Lin in his letter that Mr. Lin has not long lived, and he wants to let Miss Miaoyu return to the family to recognize her ancestors. That is to say, he wants to make an arrangement for Miss Miaoyu while he is still alive. Miss Miaoyu is already seventeen this year. If she were from another family, it would be time to talk about marriage, so Mr. Lin is also very anxious. , even if he does not have this disease, Mr. Lin will still find a suitable family for Miss Miaoyu..."
Before she finished speaking, the woman's face suddenly changed, and her jade-like face suddenly darkened.
"Lin Ruhai, does he know how to find a suitable family for Miaoyu? Miaoyu doesn't even know her parents, how can she find a suitable family? Even if Lin Ruhai asks her to return to her family and recognize her ancestors, I have to ask, a person who doesn't even know his mother How can a girl whose identity is unknown find a suitable family? Do you really think that a poor nun will not be able to understand current affairs after becoming a monk?"
In a hurry, this woman also used the terms "me" and "poor nun" interchangeably, which showed that she was also very angry. Of course, it also showed that the other party was very concerned about Miss Miaoyu's future, which was a good thing.
"Master Tai, what you say is unkind. Mr. Lin has been coming to you every year in the past few years. Please return to the world and follow him back home. If you are like that, Miss Miaoyu will naturally have a status, but what about you? ?" Wang Wenyan retorted without mercy: "At this time, you want to say that Mr. Lin is indifferent to Miss Miaoyu, so..."
Wang Wenyan's soft words made Jing Yuan blush with anger, but he didn't know how to refute the other party.
Because Lin Ruhai did come to her every year, but her earthly connection was over. At such an old age, it was absolutely impossible for her to follow Lin Ruhai back and become a concubine without knowing anything.
It's just that it's a bit unreasonable to put the responsibility on Lin Ruhai at this time.
"Humph, the poor nun followed him back then, so what? How can Miaoyu, a daughter of a concubine, have a good destination?"
"Master, Miss Miaoyu is also the flesh and blood of Mr. Lin. In this state, the first thing that comes to mind is Miss Miaoyu's future. Doesn't that mean something?" Wang Wenyan said sincerely, "Mr. Lin is going to take advantage of the situation now." His body and bones are fine, but he has to make arrangements for Miss Miaoyu. Could it be that when Mr. Lin passes away, the master can make a better arrangement for Miss Miaoyu? Or, does the master really hope that Miss Miaoyu will support the Buddha for the rest of her life? "
