In fact, Feng Ziying was very tolerant of the people around her, which even surprised Shen Yixiu and Xue Baochai.
Who would be the master of another family so pampering and protective of his servants?
Originally, it was just a habitual respect for ordinary people, but in this era, it may be a shocking act. Even if Feng Ziying is very careful, it will still be exposed inadvertently many times.
Just like if a servant makes a mistake, other mansions may punish him with a whip or even drive him out of the house, but Feng Ziying rarely takes such measures. Most of them criticize him, and at most he is fined with a monthly fine.
This also earned Feng Ziying an excellent reputation among the servants in the mansion. Of course, the strict management was definitely not that satisfactory, and she could only rely on Shen Yixiu, Xue Baochai and Xue Baoqin to make up for it.
"That's good. I don't want to see you fighting and fighting at home and making the house restless." Feng Ziying said casually.
"Where did your words go? There are still grandmothers in the house. How can it be the slaves' turn to be arrogant?" Qingwen curled her lips, "Even if there are some discords, they are mostly about family matters, and they are definitely not because of personal grudges. It makes it difficult for grandmas to make trouble."
As soon as Feng Ziying heard this, she knew there must be some stories here. She frowned and asked, "Why, is there any quarrel between your grandma and Baochai Baoqin?"
Qingwen hesitated for a moment, and finally shook her head silently.
"Why, do you still want to hide it from me?" Feng Ziying looked at Qingwen.
Qingwen twisted her body uneasily under Feng Ziying's gaze, which may have affected the wound, and she frowned. Feng Ziying quickly gave her a loving hand, which made Qingwen feel sweet in her heart. After thinking about it, she said: "Master Even if you know it, if the grandmothers don’t mention it, it’s best to pretend not to know.”
"Oh? What's the point of this?" Feng Ziying asked in surprise.
"It's hard to say who is right and who is wrong. Even if I think one side is wrong, in my heart, I'm afraid I may not see it that way." Qingwen's words were very objective, "Besides, it's all for the sake of each family's affairs. , the two countries are fighting each other for their own masters, who can be said to be wrong? There is no good words for scolding each other, and no good hands for fighting. This is a big house, and no one has friends or relatives, so there will inevitably be discord. "
Seeing that Qingwen didn't want to tell the specific situation, Feng Ziying didn't force her, so she broke her body. She should have been soothing her with sweet words, but she should have said something happy or irrelevant.
"Is the house relatively stable these days?" Feng Ziying changed the subject.
"Our house is fine, but Rong Ning's second house seems to have exploded and is in chaos. When Yu Chuan'er goes back today, her mother and I came crying two days ago. Jin Chuan'er doesn't want to go back and be raped by a big crowd. There were a lot of people talking around, but Yu Chuan'er was not taking care of anything in the house, and he was thinking about my mother, so I went back." Qingwen sighed, "There are all kinds of news flying around the city, and no one knows what happened. It’s true or not, but sir, I heard that the second master went to Jinling to become an official, isn’t that going against the imperial court?”
Feng Ziying didn't expect that even Qingwen knew about this. It seems that the public opinion offensive in Nanjing has not diminished. This preemptive strike has tied up many people first. It depends on how you handle it.
If you don't deal with it, then the other side will be even more proud and convinced that the court has no idea. If you deal with it, then those people will be provoked and the families behind them will be forced to go south. This move is really powerful.
In addition to Jia Jing being appointed as the Minister of Household Affairs of the Nanjing court, Jia Zheng was summoned to Jinling by Nanjing and appointed as the Minister of Guanglu Temple of the Nanjing court. Li Wan's father Li Shouzhong was appointed as the right minister of the Ministry of Rites of the Nanjing court, which gave the Jia family Big shock.
"Haha, maybe Uncle Zheng Shi doesn't want to do it himself, but who told him to stay in Jiangxi? He can't help himself."
Feng Ziying didn't think that Jia Zheng dared to take such a risk, but he was originally timid and upright. When Nanjing called him over, he immediately rushed you to the shelf. Even if he wanted to run away, Nanjing probably wouldn't do it. If you will allow it, you will naturally abide by it.
In addition, there was a cousin, Jia Jing, who served as the Minister of Household Affairs of the Nanjing imperial court. This was a truly lucrative position, and Prince Yi Zhong used it to reward him for his loyal following for so many years.
"Well, will Rong Ning's second house be implicated?" Qingwen asked a question that many people in the house were very concerned about.
The Feng Mansion has a deep connection with the Rongning Mansion. Eryou is the sister of the You family of the Ningguo Mansion, Yingchun is the daughter of the eldest son of the Rongguo Mansion, and Xue Baochai and Xue Baoqin are all related by marriage to the Jia family and the Wang family, not to mention For example, Qingwen, Jin Chuan'er and Yu Chuan'er were all maids from Rongguo Mansion.
Naturally, Qingwen and the others didn't know that Wang Xifeng, whose belly was already round, was hiding in Linqing, and that her belly contained Feng Ziying's seed. Wang Xifeng was the legitimate daughter of the Wang family.
"It's hard to answer this question." Feng Ziying couldn't make a conclusion either.
At present, the court seems to have not fully reacted. More thoughts are still on public opinion, military and financial preparations. However, once the North and the South confront each other and the court orders a crusade, many problems will slowly emerge. How can these rebellious family members return? Can you stay at ease in the capital city? It's impossible even if you think about it.
It would not be necessary to punish the three and nine tribes, but the methods of confiscating the houses and distributing them are probably unavoidable.
The first family to bear the brunt is the Niu family, the Wang family, the Jia family, and the Shi family. Of course, those literati whose families are in Jiangnan don't care much, but it is different for the Wuxun family who have settled in the capital city for nearly a hundred years. But the Niu family The Wang family and the Wang family should have been prepared for this a long time ago, but the Jia family and the Shi family will definitely be implicated.
Seeing that Feng Ziying was unsure of her temper, Qingwen was even more worried and said hesitantly: "Yuanyang has come to the house twice in the past two days. I think she just wants to come to the master to ask for advice. Now in the Rongguo Mansion Every backbone heard that Second Master Bao was a fool now. The eldest master was cursing in the house all day long, scolding Ningguo Mansion for causing harm to people, scolding the political master for being stupid and confused, scolding Mrs. Wang for blindly choosing a bride, and even He pointed his fingers at Sang and scolded Huai, scolded all the ladies in the palace, and boasted that he was smart. Fortunately, he did not marry the second girl to the Sun family, otherwise he would have become a rebel immediately..."
Feng Ziying could only shake her head. It was expected that Jia She would behave like this. Good things were all thanks to his good judgment and bad things were all the responsibility of others. He was a typical villain.
But I have to say that this guy is really lucky. If Yingchun promised Sun Shaozu to be his wife, then the Rongguo Mansion would really be involved. Now it seems how wise he is.
But even so, the situation of the Jia family is quite dangerous. Jia Baoyu went to Niu Jixun's legitimate daughter, and Niu Jixun was Niu Jizong's biological brother. Even if he married the eldest princess Yongning, the emperor is now unconscious. The Niu family and the Wang family Now he is the number one rebel who is plotting rebellion. Once the court decides to take action, it will bear the brunt of dealing with the Niu family and the Wang family, and both the Jia family and the Niu-Wang family can be related.
Not to mention that Jia Jing became the Minister of Household Affairs of the puppet dynasty, but Jia Zheng became the minister of Guanglu Temple in the puppet dynasty, and he married Wang Ziteng's sister. His legitimate son Jia Baoyu married Niu Jizong's niece, and his in-law Li Shouzhong was a puppet. The right minister of the Ministry of Rites of the imperial court, Jia Mu's nephew Shi Nai was a rebel general in the Datong army, and his grandniece Shi Xiangyun was engaged to the rebel general Sun Shaozu. In such a situation, besides the Niu and Wang families, who else could compare Looking at the Jia family is more dazzling?
Even if there is an older girl in the palace, it is still precarious and she may be deposed at any time.
"Yuanyang is also worried about the Jia family. She is a big girl. It is not her turn to deal with these matters." Feng Ziying sighed, "Things have become like this, no one can help them."
Qingwen's heart tightened, "Sir, is it possible that the imperial court wants to treat the Jia family...? The eldest girl is still a royal concubine after all. She can't bear to look at the Buddha's face in front of a monk..."
"Let's see." Feng Ziying responded vaguely, "Don't expect too much from the eldest girl. It's good if she can protect herself and not drag down the Jia family."
"How could this happen? How could the empress be such a drag in the palace..." Qingwen was puzzled and couldn't help but pull Feng Ziying's arm, turning her body around, causing the wound to hurt, which made her face turn pale in pain.
"Okay, why are you worrying so much?" Feng Ziying lovingly helped the other person straighten his body, "Who outside the palace can understand the things in the palace?"
"Master, can't you help the Jia family?" Qingwen finally said what was in her heart, "Anyway, Miss Bao and the second girl have a close relationship with the Jia family."
"I want to help too, but it has to be within the rules." Feng Ziying shook her head, "The court hasn't taken any action yet, let's see."
This kind of thing depends on the change of the situation, but Feng Ziying no longer wants to help the Jia family, but she also knows that being involved is inevitable. Who allowed herself to marry the Xue family's daughter and take in the Jia family's daughter?
Besides, Daiyu still lives in the Grand View Garden, the evil seed in Wang Xifeng's belly, and her one-night love with Li Wan. These inextricably linked relationships are all inextricably linked. To be a great hero, these are even more unavoidable.
And if you don't give any help, it will ruin your reputation. After all, the Feng family and the Jia family have been friends for many years. I have been so close to the Jia family in the past few years. Now that something happens to the Jia family, I will immediately put it aside. I'm afraid that people around me will look sideways.
Giving a helping hand is necessary, but how to do it, what can be helped, what cannot be helped, and to what extent it can be helped depends on the situation.
Until she got up, Feng Ziying let Qingwen have a good rest for a day, and she was thinking about this while dressing and going out.
The news spread so fast, which also shows that many things cannot be concealed. The Rongguo Mansion is probably in chaos, and the Long Jinwei is probably staring at the Jia family, including himself and Jia. The family's dealings have probably been brought into Long Jinwei's sight for a long time, well, and Jia Rui.
