Feng Ziying didn't expect this at all.
In his heart, the Mei family was extremely stupid. They broke off the engagement with Xue Baoqin, but he was the one who picked him up. The identity of a concubine was exchanged for a woman who was satisfactory in all aspects. It was truly a gift from heaven.
As for Mei Zhiye's performance in Shuntian Prefecture, in Feng Ziying's opinion, he probably did not perform well. Otherwise, given Wu Daonan's neglectful performance and the absence of the prime minister, it is as if God gave Mei Zhiye an opportunity to perform in the administration. ah.
Unexpectedly, this guy has wasted his years in vain, but still has a mediocre impression in the minds of the big guys, and he has simply killed himself.
Therefore, Feng Ziying is already thinking that if Mei Zhiye cannot be used for a long time, then she can only use a few generals.
Fortunately, Shuntian Mansion has five general judges, and it can even reach six, which itself is to assist you in your work. The powers and responsibilities in the division of government can be put to use. As long as you are willing to work hard, have talent, and don't hesitate to let go of power, you can Let's see if these people can seize the opportunity.
Xue Baoqin's sudden change in mood did not attract Feng Ziying's attention. He also did not notice that the two girls Baochai, Baoqin and even the maids next to him had not really realized that she would return to Beijing. Baoqin's question was just a question for him. The casual questions asked in a joking manner, including Baochai's previous question, were actually somewhat tentative.
"Haha, why, Baoqin, are you still so unsure of your husband? A Shuntian Prefecture Prime Minister, not a Shuntian Prefecture Yin. In terms of status, he is actually equivalent to the Tongzhi of our Yongping Mansion, and he still does the work of a Tongzhi. It's nothing more than changing from Yongping Mansion to Shuntian Mansion. In addition, our Lord Governor probably doesn't like to worry about government affairs. I'm afraid my husband will be busier by then. You sisters, don't blame me for being neglectful and neglectful. You guys."
Hearing Feng Ziying's serious words, Baochai was also a little unsure. She exchanged glances with Bao Qin and then asked cautiously: "My husband, do you really want to go back to the capital, uh, Shuntian Fu Cheng?"
Feng Ziying looked sideways, a little dumbfounded, "Baochai, why wasn't what I just said clear? Or when did my husband start joking with you about this kind of thing?"
As soon as these words came out, Baochai and Baoqin immediately understood that this was true. Baoqin was particularly excited. A blush flashed across his fair and beautiful cheeks. He bit his lip and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. sir, when was this decided?" Is the matter really settled? "
"It should have been the day before yesterday. The cabinet has made a decision and reported it to the emperor. The emperor has also agreed. The official department is already issuing official documents at this time." Feng Ziying said leisurely: "In other words, the official documents will be returned to Yongping Mansion in two or three days. , then I will just wait for the handover and return to Beijing, so I will tell you sisters first that you can prepare in secret, but don’t go too far and reveal your whereabouts, otherwise it will be unsightly."
Bao Qin clenched her fists, her whole body trembling slightly, fearing that her husband would see the clues, so she quickly turned her head and face to one side, her chest rose and fell sharply, trying to calm herself down, she really wanted to return to the capital, Mr. It’s really Shuntianfu Cheng!
At this moment, Baoqin felt an urgent urge to vent in her heart. Maybe others may not understand, but she knew very well in her heart that she wanted to give herself an explanation. She finally proved that her choice was not wrong and perfect. The land achieved its revenge.
Baochai was also inexplicably excited. Such a sudden change, coupled with the fact that she could return to Beijing immediately and return to the familiar environment, for her, even diluted the discomfort she might face from the "competition" of her elder brother after returning. Joy.
However, she noticed the change in Bao Qin's heart and quickly added: "Ms. sir, does the family know about it?"
"Who knows, I guess everyone will know it gradually in a day or two." Feng Ziying doesn't care, anyway, it is only in three to five days, no matter how closed-minded people can know it, it doesn't matter to him, he has already After being fully prepared, the only person who might be a little confused is probably Zhu Zhiren, but he has to leave, and even if there is an accident, it will have no impact.
"Then it's better to tell the news to the family first, and let the wife and sister of the Shen family know." Baochai reminded calmly.
Feng Ziying glanced at Baochai with satisfaction, but shook her head: "It's not necessary. It's just a matter of one or two days. As soon as the official documents of the imperial court come out, newspapers like "Daily News" will reprint them in Di Bao."
Through the conversation between Feng Ziying and Baochai, Baoqin finally calmed down his mood. This was only the first step. My husband was appointed as the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture. In the future, he might have to serve as ministers in the same palace as the Mei family. There are many opportunities. Not urgent.
Anyone who has hurt herself will take revenge tenfold. Xue Baoqin couldn't help clenching her fists. She had the patience.
Feng Ziying didn't expect that that night, Baoqin, who was sleeping in bed, would greet her in every possible way on the bed, making him a little confused. Wasn't he just returning to Beijing, wasn't he just promoted two levels? As for what?
It was such a pleasure that when I got up in the morning, I still looked at the sleeping Bao Qin with tears still remaining in the corners of his eyes. I don't know if it was caused by excessive excitement last night or because I didn't have a good grasp of the scale.
*******
"Cheng'en, come in." Yuan Chun was wearing a pure black peacock cloth with gold thread. She stood gracefully in front of the window. She didn't look back, but just stared out the window quietly.
It was as warm as spring inside the palace. If it weren't for the cold air brought by the open windows, Yuanchun wouldn't even have to wear fashionable clothes. However, she felt more and more stuffy. She would rather wear an extra layer than make the entire Fengzao Palace become depressing. It's suffocating, and the warm breath makes people feel congested.
"Go back to your Majesty, my slave is back." The dark-skinned, wide-mouthed, thick-lipped chambermaid had a little sweat on her forehead and her breathing was a little short because she had jogged all the way back.
"Oh, what's going on over there?" Yuan Chun saw a confused look on Cheng'en's face. He must have heard some news, and it was probably related to him, otherwise he would have such an unexpected look.
"I heard some news from Qiu Daban, and I don't know whether it is true or not. However, seeing that Qiu Daban's attitude has changed a lot from usual, I think it is more likely to be true." After a slight hesitation, The little black eunuch still said it honestly.
"What's the news?" Yuanchun became nervous. It must be a big deal to make Cheng'en take things so seriously.
"Qiu Daban said that Xiao Feng Xiuzuan is going back to Beijing, so it might be easier to beg the empress. But if the empress feels embarrassed, then there is no need."
The little black eunuch carefully recalled every word that Qiu Daban said. He always felt that the unspeakable evil in Qiu Daban's eyes on his fat white face seemed to be a sneer, and it was like a thorn that was about to pierce. In my heart, there is indeed something wrong with today's situation. That smile seems to be a little more real, but this makes me even more panicked.
Yuanchun Yilin realized that she had asked Baoqin to pass it on to Feng Ziying about Qiu Shi'an's previous mention, but there was no response as to how Feng Ziying would respond. When Baoqin came back, she just said that Feng Ziying's answer was understood, but whether he could It can be done, whether it can be done, but there is not even a word.
It has been more than a month. Although Qiu Shi'an has not come to urge him, Yuanchun is like a stone weighing on his heart. He often wakes up in the middle of the night and can't breathe.
"Xiao Feng Xiuzuan is going back to Beijing. What does this mean?" Yuan Chun asked subconsciously. Baoqin and Chengen beside him also shook their heads to express their confusion.
"It's easier, no need,..." Yuan Chun murmured to himself, wondering for a moment whether Qiu Shi'an was saying something sarcastic or warning himself? Indicating that he must do it immediately, or...?
His head was spinning with thought, Yuan Chun shook his head, and realized that the key probably lies in the first sentence: Xiao Feng Xiuzuan is going back to Beijing, "Chengen, hurry up and ask around, Qiu Shi'an." I still don’t understand what it means when Xiao Feng Xiuzan is going back to Beijing.”
Chengen nodded, "My maid has also heard that the emperor has been meeting with courtiers outside the palace in the East Study these past few days. In particular, several ministers have entered the palace many times. I am afraid that there is something going on, so I will go and inquire immediately."
Just after Yuanchun wandered around the main hall of Fengzao Palace for an unknown number of times, he finally saw Chengen hurried back.
"Reporting to your Majesty, I have inquired clearly. There are rumors outside that Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan has been promoted from Yongping Prefecture to Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture. This has been recommended by the cabinet and the emperor has approved it. Official documents from the Ministry of Personnel have been issued. , it is estimated that the report will be made public soon."
The news brought back by Cheng En had a huge impact on Yuan Chun. She couldn't help but hold on to the desk, shook her body, and then stood still: "He has returned to the capital, Shuntian Fu Cheng? How is this possible? This is incredible."
Yuanchun actually knows that since this kind of news is told in such detail, it means that it cannot be false. If it is based on hearsay, it will basically be ambiguous words and will not use such detailed and accurate descriptions.
It’s just that she never expected that Feng Ziying had killed a carbine just one year after leaving Beijing, and this carbine was so beautifully played. Shuntian Fu Cheng, I don’t know how many people have their necks stretched out, just staring at this position, But it was taken away by Ziying.
It's no wonder that Qiu Shi'an's attitude has become so weird. It may be easier to deal with Qiu Bingzhong's matter. The meaning of Qiu Shi'an's last sentence is also very clear, that is, if Feng Ziying doesn't want to do it, it doesn't matter. , he will not mind because of this kind of thing, but is more willing to deepen the relationship between the two parties.
"Mother, Master Feng is going back to Beijing to be the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture. This is a great thing. Do you want me to come back to the house?" Baoqin took the initiative to share his worries.
"No, don't worry, let me think about it." Yuanchun calmed down and opened the window wider, letting the coldness of the cold spring blow on his face, which would make his mind clearer.
