Chapter 1281 Geng Zijuan Shuntianfu Cheng!

Zhu Zhiren also pretended to look regretful, which Feng Ziying also found funny.

This Lord of the Palace is actually good, but his ability to do things is indeed a bit poor. Although he is not pedantic, he is still a bit sinister, but when it comes to actually doing things, we still need to pay attention to means and ability. He obviously lacks these practical experience, so this It is normal to put it off again and again until the opportunity is lost.

Of course this is also a good thing, and Feng Ziying is happy to see it happen.

 He believes that eventually these Japanese pirates will come back.

The Huimin Salt Farm brought a huge amount of benefits to Laoting and Changli, who were already closely entangled with the Japanese pirates. They also wanted to use this kind of Japanese pirate harassment to finally force Changludu to transfer salt envoys to give up. Use the old method to deal with it, which will also give you an opportunity to make meritorious deeds in future state affairs.

Feng Ziying became more and more aware of how difficult it would be for him to fight alone in a world that did not belong to him at all. He needed comrades, partners, allies and friends, and the higher the status and power of these people, the more harmful they were to him. favorable.

For me, I currently rely more on the blood relationship between my teachers and my father's generation, as well as the network of people who have won the recognition of others for my talents to exert influence. There are still few levels where I am truly willing to actively support myself, or where I can directly exert influence. .

The main reason for this is that my time as an official was too short and I had too few opportunities to cultivate my own system. In addition, my classmates in the same year were still in the initial stage of their official career, and they were more passive and subordinate in every field.

Then now I should seize every opportunity to promote the rapid growth of my comrades, companions, and allies.

 Practicing state affairs is undoubtedly the most important and one of the opportunities.

 Zhu Zhiren naturally accepted Feng Ziying's advice.

There are only two or three months at the moment, and the opportunity is not suitable. It is obviously inappropriate to forcefully attack the evil gentry in Changli and Leting. Zhu Zhiren has also lost his fighting spirit.

"By the way, Ziying, haven't your family members considered coming back to Yongping Mansion?" Zhu Zhiren kindly reminded, "Although the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Metropolitan Procuratorate have no special requirements for family members to accompany them, it is best to have one or two family members here. This place is more suitable. Didn't you originally have two Hu Ji concubines? Why didn't you come back this time? Su Miao, the Jiangdong Qin Shen, was quite interested in you, Ziying, years ago. I thought you intended to take her as your concubine. Also, the noble Haixi Jurchen girl has been here in Lulong for a long time, and I think she admires you quite a lot, so why not take her as your concubine when the opportunity arises? It will also be of great benefit to your father’s situation in Liaodong.”

Feng Ziying did not expect that Mr. Zhu would be so concerned about the affairs of his back house, but he also had good intentions.

A scholar who works alone as an official without a family is definitely not in line with the customs of this era for scholars to be officials. Either you are old and frail, or you like masculinity. You are young and strong, but you didn’t bring your family with you. It is only reasonable to have one or two concubines in the local area, and there is absolutely no such thing as a single person with only one or two servants.

"Well, sir, you are joking. Su Miao is a famous prostitute. How can I have much friendship with her? As for Bushiya Mara, that is even less important. She is the pearl of Haixi Jurchen, so she is naturally destined to be married. How can you be my concubine?"

Feng Ziying hurriedly explained clearly that Su Miao was fine, but Busia Mara was not a good person. It was hard to say who the rumors about the Haixi Jurchen clan would fall on, whether it would be a blessing or a curse.

"Aren't you afraid it's not that simple?" Zhu Zhiren laughed, "That Haixi girl didn't even bother to come to our government office during your return to Beijing. As soon as you came back, you came to our door every day for three days. Isn't it you? That's so easy to say? But let me be honest, although this woman is a little older, she has big hips and big breasts. She is a child-bearing woman at first glance. Your Feng family has three bedrooms and you still only have one daughter. Is it true in your family? Aren't you in a hurry? Why don't you accept this girl? If she can give birth to one or two male heirs, it will also make your parents feel at ease."

Feng Ziying was still a little embarrassed to answer. It had only been two days since she returned to Yongping Mansion, and Busia Mara had already visited her three times. Although they were all talking about official business, these visits were too frequent, and Busia Mara I am indeed not young, and many people have broken the contract many times, but they have not been able to make it, which makes it a bit difficult now.

However, Feng Ziying also knew that Bu Zhantai of the Ula tribe, who was now accepted by the Ye He tribe, still wanted to marry Bushiya Mara, but now the Ye He tribe had the tendency to annex and integrate the Ula tribe, and Busiya Mara How could La agree to marry him? Even if Busia Mara is willing, Jin Taishi and Buyangu will not agree.

"Your Majesty, this is just a joke." Feng Ziying didn't bother to explain. The more explanations you give about this kind of thing, the more likely everyone will think it is possible. It is better to let it cool down and fade away.

 As soon as he came out of Zhu Zhiren's house and returned to Tongzhi Gong's house, Wu Yaoqing was already waiting there.

During this period, Feng Ziying returned to Beijing, but the affairs of Yongping Mansion could not be delayed at all. Feng Ziying entrusted Wu Yaoqing, who could only be regarded as his personal staff, to take care of it. Fortunately, this was also a local practice. The officials would not look down upon Wu Yaoqing just because he was a personal staff member, and sometimes they would even look down upon him more.

“Sir, there are some clues about that matter.” When Wu Yaoqing saw Feng Ziying come in, he stepped forward and said a salute.

"Oh?" Feng Ziying perked up, "Long Jinwei and the people from the Criminal Department couldn't give me an explanation, but we found the clues ourselves?"

"Well, that's not the case. Lieutenant Long and the Criminal Department still gave us a lot of clues here. We still have a good time cooperating with each other. It's just that they have too many things to do, and it's inevitable that they will be distracted by other things sometimes. We just focus on digging for these clues. , so the hard work paid off, and I finally found something valuable.”

Wu Yaoqing shared what he and a group of people had carefully investigated during this period. He also introduced some of his proud points and how to achieve breakthroughs. Feng Ziying was also quite satisfied.

"Well, according to what you said, this group of people may still be based in Yongping, but maybe some of them have sneaked into Gyeonggi and even entered the capital?" Feng Ziying pinched the bridge of her nose, thoughtfully , "After they took action, they did not return to Yongping Mansion, but went straight to the capital. However, judging from the situation at hand, those who could get the certificates had stayed in Yongping Mansion for several years. Yes, suddenly went directly to the capital?"

 It is not easy for people in this era to move across states and prefectures. Unless they are refugees who encounter disasters and go out for ordinary business trips, they must go through official procedures. Ordinary people may never leave the county or even the countryside in their entire lives.

This kind of person who stayed in one place for a few years and then suddenly went out and committed crimes and assassinations on the road, but did not return to his hometown, went to Gyeonggi instead, and was not afraid of the government's investigation. This shows that people have already made arrangements to settle down in Gyeonggi. .

If you think that Feng Ziying went to the Nagu River Ferry in Yutian County temporarily, then this assassination becomes even more strange and strange.

It is unreasonable to encounter someone on the road and launch an assassination, and then go straight to Gyeonggi to hide after the failure.

Gyeonggi is the best place in the world. Public security control is the most stringent in the world. Ordinary bandits don't dare to enter Gyeonggi. Even the gentry in Yongpyeong who hate themselves seem to be unable to do such unreasonable things. Come on, or is it true that the background is so big that you are not afraid of being arrested in Gyeonggi, and someone can solve it if you are arrested?

"The situations we have found so far are indeed a bit strange and need further verification. But they have already entered the capital. There are millions of people in the capital, so it is much more difficult to investigate. Even with Ni Er's help, it will not be easy. …”

Wu Yaoqing pondered: "Wanping and Daxing counties each occupy half of it. I'm afraid we need to use some people from the government of these two counties and people from the patrol camp to slowly explore it. If it is outside the city, it may be easier."

"Capital City?" Feng Ziying smiled thoughtfully: "Don't worry, there will always be a chance. I really want to see why these people are targeting me, and whether there is anyone else behind them. "

Feng Ziying already has a vague guess in her mind, but she is not completely sure yet. If she really has been staying in Yongping Mansion, then the situation in the capital is too complicated, and it is really difficult to find out if the name is unreasonable.

But if he serves as the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, many problems will be solved easily. Even in the house of the King of Heaven and I, he will dare to touch and check it out.

"Yao Qing, please sort out the situation here, especially the situation related to Gyeonggi Province. You must sort it out carefully..." Feng Ziying nodded.

“Huh?” Wu Yaoqing raised his head in surprise and didn’t understand for a while.

“Perhaps it won’t be long before we can return to the capital.” Feng Ziying did not intend to hide this from her most important assistants.

“Ah?! Your Excellency is going back to Beijing, is it to enter the imperial court?” Wu Yaoqing was shocked.

Feng Ziying was released from the Hanlin Academy for only one year, and then returned to the court?

Although the court is more prominent and has a better reputation, for staff like them, especially those who are more focused on practical matters, there is much less room for performance, such as the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of Works. It's even narrower, but the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment still have some opportunities.

“No, I’m going back to Beijing but not entering the court.” Feng Ziying smiled, “It’s Shuntian Prefecture.”

 “Shuntian Mansion?” Wu Yaoqing is also half an official, and he understands the character of Shuntian Mansion officials.

I don’t need to mention the governor, and I certainly can’t say that. The governor of Shuntian Prefecture is the fifth rank. The transfer from the same magistrate of Yongping Prefecture to the governor of Shuntian Prefecture is considered a smooth rank. It should look more glamorous. After all, it is Shuntian Prefecture.

But there are two people above Zhizhong, Fu Yin and Fu Cheng, who can only be regarded as the third-ranking figures. Moreover, there are many people in charge of Tongjian below, and they all control their own affairs. They are equivalent to Zhizhong's deputy assistants. If Zhizhong cannot suppress Tongzhong, Judgment, that’s a bit tricky.

 “What?” Feng Ziying smiled.

"If you are in charge, I'm afraid you will be busy in the future." Wu Yaoqing laughed, "But that's fine. Once you are in charge of Shuntian Mansion, you can go anywhere."

"Who said I was going to be a governor? I have done so many things in Yongping Mansion, how can the imperial court reward me with a governor?" Feng Ziying asked proudly.

"Huh?" Wu Yaoqing suddenly understood and was overjoyed: "It would be great if your Excellency takes up the post of Shuntian Prefecture. He is simply prepared for you. We will be able to do more for you..."

 Shuntianfu Cheng! A true fourth-grade official! Twenty years old!
