"The disciple will write it down as soon as possible after he returns." Feng Ziying did not refuse, and this was also a move that he was very optimistic about, and its future effectiveness would exceed many people's imagination.
The strategy of opening up the sea has reached a critical moment. Of course, he cannot let go of the chain, but must also use all his strength to help Qi Yongtai gain a foothold in the cabinet, the entire Northland scholars, and even the entire Great Zhou scholar-officials.
Qi Yongtai is currently his biggest supporter, and as a former official, Qi Yongtai will be of incomparable help to his future.
The better Qi Yongtai's future development momentum, the more helpful he will be. However, the northern scholars have not been the first assistant in the Great Zhou Dynasty. At most, they are the second assistant, so Feng Ziying wants to see what he can do. History cannot be changed.
At present, the Great Zhou Dynasty is also in a relatively chaotic stage. Due to the promotion of the sea opening strategy, the interests of the north and the south are now intertwined.
The interests of some southerners have been integrated with those of the north, but on the contrary, there are some internal contradictions in the south, so now the scholars in the north and the south are also in a state of you having me, and I having you.
This is also a change brought about after the original solidified interest structure is broken. This situation will take several years to wait until the interest structure is solidified again before a new pattern will be formed.
"Well, Ziying, you have done more things in the past few years, and the emperor and the princes can see it." Qi Yongtai stroked his beard with satisfaction and smiled, "Although Ye Fang, Li and the six princes all have their own merits, idea, but they cannot turn a blind eye to young people who are really performing well. You have done well in the past two years, just keep this momentum going."
"Disciple understands." Feng Ziying also knew very well that it was extraordinary for her to be a sixth-grade editor at her age.
If he continues to be promoted, it will probably be difficult. Even if he has made great contributions, Emperor Yonglong and the court will probably only be able to provide some compensation in other ways, such as making his wife Yinzi.
If you want to advance to the next level in your position, it will probably take two or three years.
If you can only advance one or even two levels before reaching the age of twenty, reach the sixth level or move from the fifth level, and strive to get down to the place to take charge of a party as soon as possible, it can be regarded as an opportunity to conduct the most intuitive and detailed observation of this era. learn.
Then after having this experience and returning to the central government, you will have more confidence to consider more.
"By the way, Ru Jun said, your eldest brother-in-law wants to marry the daughter of the Shen family, and he is the one who made the decision. The engagement has already been made. So how do you think about the marriage of your third wife? He said that you also have a candidate?" Qi Yongtai suddenly thought of something. , with a gloomy face.
Shen Jue is the same year as Qiao Yingjia, and the Shen family is also a famous family in Suzhou. It is reasonable for Qiao Yingjia to fight for Feng Ziying, but it also makes Qi Yongtai a little regretful. The problem is that neither he nor Qiao Yingjia have a suitable daughter in their families, so they can only give up. But Qiao Yingjia was Qi Yongtai was still a little unhappy after taking the lead.
It’s like this is something that everyone shares, so why are you taking the lead?
So when Qiao Yingjia mentioned vaguely and mysteriously a few days ago that Feng Ziying had found a suitable candidate for the third house, it made Qi Yongtai feel even more unhappy.
Feng Ziying's heart also sank. She didn't expect Master Qiao to "betray" herself first.
But his mother hasn't agreed yet. Before seeing Miaoyu, her mother would never agree easily.
But at this time, he could no longer avoid it. It would be a good thing to simply let Qi Yongtai attack.
"Master Qi, I do have a suitable candidate. She is the daughter of Lin Hai, the salt censor of the Lianghuai River, who was the person I rescued in Linqing. She is destined to be my disciple..."
Before Feng Ziying could finish her words, she was rudely interrupted by Qi Yongtai: "What did you say, Lin Hai's daughter? No! Ziying, are you dizzy? Don't you know who Lin Hai is? Salt Patrol Censor, hum. Huh, just the other salt patrol censors, Lianghuai Salt Patrol Censor, didn’t Qiao Rujun and your father tell you about it?”
Qi Yongtai's face was frighteningly gloomy, and even his tone was colder than ever before. He was obviously irritated by this matter.
What's going on with Qiao Yingjia? Why not stop this marriage?
He thought he was ruining a good marriage, so he just ignored it?
Qi Yongtai became even more annoyed when he thought of this.
Feng Ziying thought that Qi Yongtai would not approve of the marriage, but she did not expect that the other party would react so strongly and was surprised.
"Master Qi, I know Mr. Lin's identity and situation. However, Mr. Lin is seriously ill this time. I have already seen Mr. Lin in Yangzhou. His life expectancy is only two or three months." Feng Ziying lowered her voice. road.
"Oh?" Qi Yongtai knew that Lin Ruhai couldn't afford to be ill, but he didn't expect that Lin Ruhai was seriously ill or even had a short life expectancy. It would be much better if this was the case, but it was still not a good marriage. "No, this marriage is not good." Suitable, Ziying, there are so many good girls in the capital for you to choose from, why choose Lin Hai's daughter? Although he is also a scholar, but..., hum, he is a personal minister of the Supreme Emperor, and the Salt Envoy of the Lianghuai River The Yamen is actually the Supreme Emperor's private treasury, don't you know?"
"Disciple knows a little bit, but..." Feng Ziying was interrupted again by Qi Yongtai: "Do you know you still want this marriage? This salt transport envoy Si Yamen in the Huaihe River and the Huaihe River has an unclear relationship with the Jiangnan salt merchants. Sooner or later, they will have to clean up. You What does the Emperor think about getting involved in this muddy water? Although the Supreme Emperor is still here, the Emperor won't have anything, but how many more years can this wait last?"
"Besides, Lin Hai has dealt with a lot of embarrassing things for the Supreme Emperor in the past few years. The Emperor knew about it but didn't say anything. It doesn't mean that the Emperor will always let it go or forget about it. There will be a time to settle accounts, and Lin Hai is both. If you close your eyes, everything will be fine, but if your successor has to give an explanation to the superiors, he will definitely..."
Feng Ziying was very touched by Qi Yongtai's sincere words, but he was definitely determined to marry Lin Daiyu, and he also wanted Qi Yongtai to attack her.
"Master Qi, these disciples all understand that in fact, the disciples have already informed the emperor last time..."
Feng Ziying's words made Qi Yongtai startled, and his expression became a little strange. After a long time, he said: "Then what did the emperor say?"
"The emperor was actually a little displeased at first. Although he didn't express it like you, Master Qi, the disciple could feel that he was a little disappointed and dissatisfied. However, the disciple also told the emperor that Mr. Lin was going to go, and this happened to be the right time. At the opening of the sea, Yangzhou and even the south of the Yangtze River are just the best time..., I think the emperor can't say anything. It is beneficial to the country and the people. Even the emperor has taken the lead to set an example. The merchants in the world still don't care about the scenery. So, how can the Yangzhou Salt Merchant be an exception? What's more, this is not a donation, but a business, a business that many people regret too late or are overjoyed with."
Feng Ziying spoke very quietly, but she revealed some of the inner situation in a semi-conscious manner.
Who is Qi Yongtai? He quickly waved his hand to stop Feng Ziying from continuing.
For him, it doesn't matter what kind of resources or plans, the key lies in Emperor Yonglong's attitude.
Since Emperor Yonglong knew it and King Zhongshun was still willing to take the initiative to participate, it meant that Emperor Yonglong recognized the matter and would even take the initiative to seek compromise with the Supreme Emperor on this position.
After thinking for a long time, Qi Yongtai felt that he could not find any reason to object, and his disciple also expressed the idea that he could use this opportunity to take over many of Lin Hai's resources and contacts. Although it was not worth mentioning for Qi Yongtai and Feng Ziying, it was not worth mentioning for Feng Ziying. Said, this is quite rich.
"Ziying, you must be careful about this matter. Are you sure Lin Hai won't survive long?"
This point is very important. If Lin Hai really gets over it and wants to continue to serve as the salt patrol censor, then this marriage will definitely be inappropriate.
The special relationship between Lin Hai and the Supreme Emperor is an unavoidable obstacle. Death is like a lamp going out. Whether you pick up or inherit everything else, you will eventually lose your support. It is just some leftovers. But if Lin Hai is alive, Surviving is a completely different story.
"This can't be false." Feng Ziying nodded solemnly, her face calm, but she was also worried in her heart. What if something unexpected happened again?
"Now that you are here and you are so in love with this girl, what else can you say as a teacher?" Qi Yongtai nodded, "Get engaged first, delay the marriage for two years, and wait until after the filial piety period before coming again."
****
Feng Ziying felt a little dizzy on the way home.
The matter was resolved easily, and it really surprised him that it went so smoothly.
However, he also felt Master Qi's disdain for Lin Hai and other personal officials of Emperor Yuan Xi.
Even though Lin Ruhai did have quite a rich inheritance and resources, Qi Yongtai was not willing to let himself be contaminated in his heart.
This Master Qi's temperament is still too pure. In contrast, Master Qiao's attitude is the same as Master Qi's disapproval and the reasons for his opposition are the same. However, Qiao Yingjia is more worried that behind Lin Ruhai is not just the Supreme Emperor, but maybe even the Supreme Emperor. There was also Prince Yi Zhong, which Feng Ziying did not dare to mention to Qi Yongtai.
After eliminating crises and risks, Qiao Yingjia supported himself in fully accepting Lin Hai's "legacies".
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. It was just that their personal styles were inconsistent. They reached the same goal by different paths, and they were consistent in basic concepts and interests. This would determine how much the relationship between the two would not be affected by these aspects.
In temples and official circles, there is never so much black and white. More often than not, it is in a state of gradual color change. Sometimes he may be more inclined to one side, and sometimes he may be more inclined to one side. Support a certain side more, but will not deviate from your main line, bottom line and basic base.
Qiao Yingjia, Qi Yongtai and even herself are all on the same line to a large extent. Of course, Feng Ziying hopes to bring more people to her line in the next step. Maybe this is a united front?
