Feng Ziying is a guest met in the study outside.
The outer study room was renovated from the original Jia She's courtyard, and Jia She's original outer study room was also incorporated into it, so the courtyard was much larger and there were many more rooms.
As expected, it turned out to be Dai Pang.
Dai Quan's nephew was the first to have a relationship with Feng Ziying. He was a very shrewd person, similar to the relationship between Zhou Dehai and Zhou Peisheng.
Dai Pang also has a younger brother, Dai Zong, who is also with Mei Yuexi, but Feng Ziying knows that Dai Zong spends more time outside.
Later, as Dai Quan gradually retired from the palace and moved to Renshou Palace, the contact between brothers Dai Pang and Dai Zong became less frequent.
But now that Emperor Yuanxi passed away, Dai Quan returned to the palace, but now he followed Mei Yuexi in the cold palace. Perhaps he had to wait for time, so Dai Pang and Dai Zong naturally followed his uncle.
Looking at Feng Ziying's warm face, Dai Pang was also a little distracted.
When did you first meet this guy?
It seems that he was in the palace. Emperor Yonglong met him in the East Study Room, and later he met him twice, once at the entrance of Wenyuan Pavilion and once in front of the Minister of War, but each time he was more amazing than the last.
These thoughts were fleeting. Dai Pang collected his thoughts, put a smile on his face, stood up and bowed his hands: "I have met the Minister."
"Manager Dai, you and I are old acquaintances, why are you so polite? How are Princess Long and Uncle Ling?" Feng Zi spoke in a gentle tone and extended her hand to signal the other party to take a seat.
"Thank you for your concern, sir. Everything is fine. After seeing you last time, the concubine and my uncle have been thinking about you. Who would have thought that you would leave the capital after finishing your business in Beijing? I heard that you went to Jiangnan ?”
Dai Pang is also very well informed.
"Well, I've been to Xuzhou, Yangzhou, and Nanjing, but I can't help it. There are too many things to do, so I can't go." Feng Ziying nodded: "Hasn't it only been two days since I came back? Is there something wrong with the concubine?"
Dai Pang was secretly angry, could everything be okay?
The things that were agreed upon with Qian Guozhong were silent now, and seeing that every seat was gradually being filled, Qian Guozhong's heart was scratching like a cat's paw, and he would inevitably go to Mei Yuexi to complain.
"Sir, the matter of Qian Guozhong..."
Feng Ziying nodded, not really sure. The matter has passed, and Qian Guozhong's matter is no longer a problem, but he will not fail to promise, "I know, I will consider it, there is no rush."
Not urgent? Can you not be in a hurry? I can see that every position is being filled, and if the delay continues, there won't be any suitable positions. After all, Qian Guozhong also sacrificed his life for you.
Dai Pang could only curse, but he did not dare to express it in words, and said dryly: "I hope you will consider it more, and the concubine would like to see you."
Meet? Feng Ziying's heart skipped a beat. She had to meet Yuan Chun and Guo Qinjun. How could she have such good energy?
However, he immediately realized that he seemed to be too sensitive. Mei Yuexi was not Guo Qinjun, and he had nothing to do with her. They were purely interested.
"But now I can't enter the palace at will..."
"The concubine is going to leave the palace to burn incense and pray for blessings. She is staying at Longfu Temple." Dai Pang noticed the doubts and worries in Feng Ziying's eyes, and quickly lowered his voice and said: "Don't worry, sir, the concubine has always been there at Longfu Temple." The princess used to stay at the place where she stayed a few times every summer. It was very private, and the people there were very well-behaved..."
It turns out that Longfu Temple is Meiyuexi's hometown, Feng Ziying really didn't expect it.
But considering that she was Emperor Yonglong's favorite concubine, and was much more scheming than Guo Qinyun, and had the help of Dai's uncle and nephew, this arrangement made sense.
But this doesn't mean that he has to go to Longfu Temple to see her.
"Manager Dai, I agreed to Qian Guozhong's matter, and I will do it naturally. Apart from this matter, does the concubine have anything else to do?"
Feng Ziying's attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away was not what Dai Pang expected. To be honest, he was not optimistic about Mei Yuexi's request to meet Feng Ziying. Why should he try so hard for King Lu?
But seeing the embarrassing situation Emperor Wantong is in now, who can not be moved?
Maybe when I woke up, the cabinet had already issued a statement saying that the emperor was insane and could not handle affairs, so he became the supreme emperor, or simply established a new prince to supervise the country?
This possibility is a devilish temptation for any prince or concubine, and it is impossible to get rid of.
Dai Pang murmured for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and whispered: "Sir, you are a sensible person. You also know the situation in the palace now. The ministers in the cabinet must be very dissatisfied. Maybe..."
Feng Ziying smiled contemptuously and said, "Manager Dai, it is best for the concubine to let nature take its course. Don't mess with it randomly, otherwise it will be counterproductive. I understand her thoughts, but the conditions are not mature now."
Dai Pang was a little anxious, "Sir, many things can be accomplished if you are prepared, and if you are not prepared, they will be ruined. If you don't step forward, who will care about you? King Lu is the most suitable person. Now is such an opportunity, if you lend a helping hand, in the future The concubine must be well rewarded,..."
"A generous reward?" Feng Ziying laughed, "What kind of reward do I need? How can the concubine repay me generously? I told you about King Lu, it is best to stay still, don't look for trouble by taking rash actions, I said The concubine is also a very shrewd person, why can’t she figure it out?”
"Sir, the concubine is very anxious now, and several other princes are also working hard. If you lend a helping hand, the concubine will definitely remember it. If King Lu can really ascend the throne in the future, then you can also..."
Dai Pang didn't say any more, but the expectation in his eyes was enough to explain everything.
Feng Ziying still shook her head: "If the concubine has anything to say, you can bring it to me. There's no need to meet in person."
Dai Pang is really desperate. Why is this person so insecure now?
Even his uncle said that this man was as lustful as his soul. If the concubine asked him to meet him, he would definitely be able to catch him. When the time comes, the concubine might show off her coquettishness and it might have miraculous effects.
As his mind raced, Dai Pang gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, the concubine has said that she must see you. If you refuse to see her, she may come to find you in person."
Feng Ziying suddenly raised her eyebrows, "Manager Dai, are you threatening me or deceiving me? Why does the concubine insist on seeing me? If she really dares to come to me in person, then fine, I will meet you in this mansion. she!"
Threatening to scare me? This Meiyue River is still a little tender.
Dai Pang left, but Feng Ziying had to consider the issue of Emperor Wan Tong that was attracting the attention of all parties.
During the time when Feng Ziying went to Jiangnan, Emperor Wan Tong did not go to court on the grounds that he was too frightened and felt unwell. All court affairs were handled by the cabinet.
It seemed that everything was normal, and the whole court affairs just started running like this.
But the meaning behind this is far-reaching. Some tabloids have begun to insinuate some inside information. Although not many people may believe it, as long as some people believe it, it is a risk point.
What's more, as long as someone starts operating in it, and the news itself may not be all rumors, depending on how you judge it, if it is half true or half false, or if it is filled with some emotions or emotions, it will be easier to change the taste.
Feng Ziying also asked Qi Yongtai how the cabinet would handle this turmoil. In the final analysis, it was what Emperor Wan Tong should do.
But Qi Yongtai did not answer this question. He only said that everything was running according to the original model. Didn't Emperor Yonglong recover the same after being in a coma for two years and unable to see things?
Feng Ziying was a little frightened when she heard these words. Could it be that the ministers in the cabinet were really happy with this model that completely sidelined the emperor?
If we really want to continue like this, we will have to adopt the model of a constitutional monarchy. Could it be that because of his arrival, this scene that has never happened before in history will be staged hundreds of years in advance?
This is unscientific.
This kind of false monarchy has never been advocated in this land. The people of this era are more dependent on the sense of security brought by a strong and stable emperor.
However, the assassination of Emperor Yonglong, the original poor reputation of Emperor Wan Tong, and the mediocrity of Emperor Yonglong's adult sons have caused the reputation of the Zhang family's imperial power to continue to decline.
It is still uncertain what the cabinet will do, but Feng Ziying feels that this situation will not last and there must always be a result.
Feng Ziying does not think that now is a good time to change people, which only proves the cabinet's original decision-making was blind and hasty.
Maybe everyone can take a step back and tolerate each other for the sake of the country?
But does this tolerance have a limit and how long can it last?
Emperor Wan Tong should understand that the cabinet does not think that he can continue to be emperor, but that replacing him now would be too much of a slap in the cabinet's face. Therefore, it wants to save the face of the cabinet, which does not mean that this This situation will continue forever.
Perhaps at a certain point in time, or due to certain factors, the cabinet will declare that it is unable to handle matters and needs to be sent to the Renshou Palace to be strictly guarded like the fourth child, and then the next puppet will be launched.
The cabinet also thought that Emperor Wan Tong would not bow his head so easily, or it would be more appropriate to say "conferring the head". The civil servants were ruthless, even more sophisticated than the military men, killing people and killing people with heart-wrenching reputation. , they will solve it for you. Everything is in their hands, their words, mouthpieces and even the power of the palace and military. You say you don’t have it, but you don’t. Does anyone listen or believe it?
Even if you just run out of the palace and stand at the Meridian Gate and shout, someone will tell you that it is fake and you are pretending to be a substitute, and they will be able to hold you down.
Even Feng Ziying sometimes shudders when she thinks about it. If she really wants to go to that point, this kind of emperor is really better than being inappropriate.
Of course, Feng Ziying could only think about this in her heart. She didn't see that Mei Yuexi and Guo Qinjun were still chasing after each other, and they were still trying to attack at all costs.
Maybe they thought that after their son ascended the throne, he could change everything, just like Emperor Wan Tong had imagined before, thinking that he could do it himself, but unfortunately the reality was so cruel.
If you get to a certain point in the future, how will you break the situation?
Feng Ziying laughed dumbly. She really thought too much.
