Chapter 189 Thunder in Volume B (Fourth update, please vote for me!)

When Wang Ziteng received the greeting card from Feng Ziying sent by the concierge, he couldn't help but sigh.

 He was very optimistic about his son.

How can Feng Tang hide his plans from him?

He indeed intends to consider letting Feng Tang serve as the general of the fifth military camp in the next step. This is the military commander position second only to himself in the Beijing camp and is a matter of life and death.

Feng Tang wanted to get off the boat and avoid disaster. How could such a good thing happen?

Over the years, without everyone's support and without the trust of the Supreme Emperor, your Feng family, a low-level martial artist who is not even considered the Four Kings, Eight Dukes and Twelve Marquises, can actually produce three general soldiers?

Haven’t you seen that there are quite a few people in the Eighth Duke and Twelve Marquises who are so busy that they even have to sell their houses, don’t you know?

Of course Feng Qin and Feng Han died in battle, but who among the warriors could avoid this?

 Wizi Teng also knew that the Feng family had grievances against the Supreme Emperor.

Feng Qin died in battle, and Feng Han died of illness. As a result, the two families left no heirs. This is probably the Feng family's biggest regret. Feng Han's Yunchuan uncle had no one to seize the title, and it was just like this. The Feng family must have disagreed. Quite big.

Even though Feng Qin has no heirs, the Feng family does not have an extinct heir, and Feng Tang still has a son. At the worst, you can also consider looking for a suitable candidate from the distant branch to take over the throne.

 It's just that these matters required the approval of the imperial court, but the Supreme Emperor ignored it at the time. In addition, Feng Tang succeeded to the post of Datong Commander-in-Chief, which was regarded as compensation, but the Feng family may not think so.

Feng Ziying's performance has always been noticed by Wang Ziteng, especially when this guy was recommended by Qiao Yingjia to enter Qingtan Academy, Wang Ziteng realized that this little guy's potential should not be underestimated.

It is impossible for a noble censor like Qiao Yingjia to use his reputation as a favor, which only shows that this son is indeed worthy of his recommendation.

Feng Ziying's performance in Qingtan Academy also proved his judgment. Especially the more he learned about his son's performance in the academy, the more he felt that he could not let go of this son or the Feng family. Feng Tang wanted to escape from that place. It's even more impossible.

Since this guy is quite admired by Qi Yongtai, Qiao Yingjia and Guan Yingzhen, and he seems to be the heir to the mantle of Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen, it means that this guy is gradually being accepted by the scholar-official community, and other martial arts want to do it. To reach this point is simply unimaginable.

Once this guy passes the imperial examination or even Jinshi, this guy will probably have a considerable influence in the court in the future, and even now he has a small reputation.

 Because of this, he wanted to spend some time with this little guy even more.

 In comparison, Feng Tang’s matter was a trivial matter.

 “Sir, Mr. Feng’s family is here.”

"Invite him in." The prince calmed down. This meeting with this guy might bring him something unexpected. He had an intuition.

The Wang family's reception room is very plain, without the majestic and luxurious atmosphere of ordinary Wuxun families. It has a simple pair of official hat chairs and a slippery chair.

The bluestone slab is mottled and even undulating. It can be seen that it is very old, but it still maintains its original shape. On the wall diagonally opposite, there is an unknown handwriting of an unknown person hanging on the wall.

 “Quietness cultivates one’s character, frugality cultivates one’s virtue.” These are the words from Zhuge Liang’s “Commandments”. I wonder if Wang Ziteng actually likes this sentence, but looking at his son’s virtue, it seems more like irony, right? Feng Ziying thought maliciously.

 “See you, uncle.” He bowed deeply and respectfully, cupped his fists and raised his hands in a salute.

"Sit down, Ziying, I thought you should have come to my place years ago." Wang Ziteng said leisurely: "I didn't expect you to be able to hold your own. It's rare."

Feng Ziying was startled, and then she laughed dumbly, "If uncle has this intention, just tell me, little nephew, how dare you not come?"

 “Haha, I can teach you, little boy.” The prince said hesitantly, “When you come today, are you afraid that you will be able to teach me?”

Feng Ziying was startled again by this sentence. She sat down but quickly got up to apologize, "Why did uncle say that? Wouldn't it hurt my nephew?"

"You are more courageous than anyone else, and you are still afraid of a mere word?" Wang Ziteng squinted at the boy: "You were able to escape from the chaos during the Linqing Civil War, and you also brought Lin Ruhai's daughter, Jia Yucun and the Xue family You have been rescued, how can you still be afraid of a word from me with this ability?"

 Feng Ziying knew that the other party was taking advantage of this situation to beat her up.

It is true to say that he is the Jiedushi of the Beijing Camp and the Right Minister of the Ministry of War. Among the four princes, eight princes and twelve princes, even the four kings want to give him three points. The true spokesperson of the martial arts group, the Feng family can also be regarded as the martial arts The same lineage, to say the least, has benefited from it to some extent. It doesn't make sense that I went to the Jia family but not the Wang family.

The Princes of Dongping County, Nan'an County, and Xining County Princes are now just empty-titled characters who earn salaries. They may not have much influence at all with the Supreme Emperor. Only Beijing County Prince Shui Rong may still be able to speak in front of the Supreme Emperor. He could talk a lot, but he couldn't compete with the prince who really held great power.

The current Wang family is truly the head of the four oldest families in Jinling, even far behind the other three families by countless positions, and completely incomparable to them.

Because of this, Feng Ziying knows that she can go to the Jia family and keep close contact with the Jia family. It doesn't matter, because the Jia family has long been a flower show, not even a paper tiger. But if the relationship with Wang Ziteng becomes closer, it will be difficult to tell. What negative effects did Emperor Yonglong have?

 But from another perspective, Emperor Yonglong did not seem to give up his intention to win over Wang Ziteng. Perhaps in Emperor Yonglong's view, this should be the safest move.

As long as it is ensured that Wang Ziteng does not completely fall to the side of Prince Yoshitaka, even if Wang Ziteng continues to act honestly as the spokesperson of his Supreme Emperor, there will be no problem.

 As long as it is not used by Prince Yoshitaka, everything is acceptable.

Feng Ziying feels that Wang Ziteng has seen through this, and even the Supreme Emperor should be aware of this, which is why all parties now have such a delicate situation.

This delicate situation is also beneficial to our own side. At least for now, Wang Ziteng is still on both ends of the spectrum, and there should be room for change in his attitude.

"My uncle said that, and I feel ashamed." Feng Ziying was not intimidated or gave in because of the other party's attitude. He knew very well that people like Wang Ziteng only looked at interests, not attitude. "I also want to ask, uncle needs What do my father and my nephew do? As long as my father and my nephew can do it, there is no reason not to do it."

Wizi Teng didn't expect the other party's attitude to be so frank. Instead, he was startled and hesitated.

 What do you want the other party to do? This request is really hard to make. There must be a reason not to let Feng Tang go to Yulin Town, right? It is too hypocritical to say that the Emperor pities the Feng family and cannot bear Feng Tang to go to the bitter cold land of Yulin. It cannot be hidden from people like Feng Ziying. It is just a bit illusory to just let Feng Tang stay and wait for the situation on his side to become clear and take over as the general of the fifth military camp. , that’s not something that can come to fruition within a year and a half.

Seeing the other party's hesitation, Feng Ziying calmed down and said calmly: "Prince, you also know the situation of our Feng family. My father has been idle for three years. You know how he behaved in Datong before. Since he feels that my father has blocked others, Different roads lead to different paths, so my father has no complaints, but he still needs to be given a way to survive, right? There are more than a hundred people in my Feng family, and we can’t just sit back and have nothing, right? We don’t block anyone when we go to Yulin Town. Lu, why is it like this? Besides, if the court really needs it, how can my father still disobey an edict?"

 Feng Ziying changed her tone and addressed her directly as the prince.

Of course, Wang Ziteng would not be dissuaded by Feng Ziying's words. After taking this step, it would not be so easy to take him back.

Seeing that Wang Ziteng's expression was dull and unmoved, Feng Ziying also felt a headache. This guy was just a copper pea who was indifferent and would not be easily moved by his sweet words. He had to talk from another angle.

 Having said that, if he can be moved by himself at will, he is not worthy of sitting in this position.

"Ziying, you and I are the only two here today. I know that although you are young, you are a person who has ideas and can make decisions. I recently heard that Duke Qi, the head of your academy, intends to go out. Do you know?" Wang Ziteng suddenly Change the topic.

Feng Ziying was stunned for a moment and then said: "I heard about it, but we can't comment on this matter."

Wang Ziteng glanced at Feng Ziying with dissatisfaction. This guy was really cunning. He was not like a 13-year-old boy. He pushed away key matters as soon as they were involved.

“Ziying, since you called me uncle, I will also tell you sincerely that the Feng family is deeply favored by the imperial court. Although some things may not go as expected, we must stand firm in the face of major events.”

Feng Ziying’s eyes turned cold. Is this guy trying to threaten her?

 Taking a deep breath, he raised his eyes and looked back at each other. Feng Ziying and Wang Ziteng's eyes intertwined in the air, one was calm and the other was unyielding.

After a while, Feng Ziying chuckled: "Your Majesty, my nephew is afraid that Your Majesty may have gone astray."

"Oh?" Wang Ziteng said calmly, "How can you see it?"

"Is the prince worried that the father and son of the Tian family will have bad feelings due to recent events?" Feng Ziying knew that she needed to clarify some things. It was difficult for Wang Ziteng to see clearly when he was in the middle of it, so he had to clarify something for him. .

 Prince Teng's eyes turned cold, "Why did Ziying say this?"

Feng Ziying ignored the other party and said directly: "Since you are causing trouble and disturbing people's opinions, why don't you resign?"

 Wang Ziteng was stunned for a moment and resigned? Resigning as Right Minister?

It's not that he has never thought about resigning, but the intention of resigning as Right Minister to continue to take charge of the military power in Beijing is too obvious. This will obviously make the emperor more suspicious of himself, which he does not want to see.

 “Wouldn’t resigning be a disservice to the emperor?” Prince Teng said slowly.

“My nephew means that the prince might as well resign as the governor of the capital.”

A simple sentence, but it was like a thunderbolt from the blue, and Wang Ziteng's whole body was shaken when he heard it.

Twelve thousand were delivered, and the brothers gave tickets to let Lao Rui work harder! Try to continue with 12,000 tomorrow!
