Chapter 201: Volume B will carry out the trouble to the end

 Study and life are boring and arduous, but for Feng Ziying, it is a rare experience.

It was only this year that he realized that there was no such thing as winter and summer vacations in these academies. Especially in his previous life, there was no such thing as the summer vacation that everyone looked forward to while studying.

 Summer is hot, but it’s the time when you should stay up late and study hard.

Learning Sanjiu in winter and Sanfu in summer is not just about practicing martial arts or singing opera, it is also the same for scholars.

 As Chen Qiyu was "convinced", Feng Ziying's life in the academy became calm and rhythmic.

The entire dormitory has now entered a benign atmosphere, and everyone's thoughts have been united, that is, heading towards next year's autumn.

Qi Yongtai went to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to serve as the Zuo Shilang. This was a position with heavy affairs and huge implications.

 Below the minister, Zuo Shilang is the most respected, equivalent to the executive deputy minister, and has to intervene in everything. Some powerful Zuo Shilang can even compete with the minister.

After Guan Yingzhen took over as the mountain director, he basically continued Qi Yongtai’s previous general school-running ideas, and even made it more detailed and practical.

Feng Tang finally left Beijing to take up his post in Yulin Town, but there has been no news of his return yet.

However, Feng Ziying is still very relieved.

After all, my father was able to play around in Datong Town. Even if the situation in Yulin is worse, the Tatars in the Hetao area, their biggest enemy, seem to be entering a period of decline. The threat from the outside is actually not great. It is more of a game within Jiubian to compete for more resources.

Of course, for a general military officer who wants to make a difference, that is another matter.

But Feng Tang is obviously not the kind of person who wants to do something in a passionate way, so everything is still stable.

 “I’ve seen the mountain chief.” Feng Ziying saw Guan Yingzhen splashing ink when he entered the door, with a leisurely attitude.

"Ziying is here? Well, wait a moment, Jian Yu, Jun Yu and Meng Zhang will be here soon." Guan Yingzhen put down his pen and took a look at himself, and Feng Ziying also went up to have a look with fun.

 "Be worried about the world's worries first, and be happy after the world's happiness", Wen Zhenggong's famous saying, probably Guan Yingzhen had some feelings, so he wrote this sentence.

Feng Ziying's impression was that the structure of the Zhou court and even the quality of the entire officials were very vague and chaotic.

 He has been in this world for so long, and he has come into contact with quite a few different kinds of people.

There are capable officials like Qi Yongtai, Qiao Yingjia, Shen Jue, and Zhao Wenzhao who are diligent in political affairs and proficient in affairs, and there are also people like Li Sancai, Wang Ziteng, Zhang Jin, including his own father, who have strong personal desires, but they also There is no lack of talented people, and there are people like Gu Bingqian and Jia Yucun who have talents and abilities but lack the courage to adapt to the wind, and there are also mediocre people like Jia Zheng who are just hanging around and getting paid.

Of course these people may only represent a certain aspect of the Zhou Dynasty, but I have to say that this world seems so real and vivid.

Well, capable ministers are not necessarily honest ministers, but honest ministers are not necessarily capable ministers. There are very few who have both, and most of them will have a hard time surviving in this court, at least not very well.

In comparison, capable officials with outstanding abilities and distinctive personalities such as Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia, as well as another type of capable ministers such as Li Sancai and Wang Ziteng who may be slightly inferior in terms of official qualities, but are not inferior in terms of ability. Ministers, these two types of people often occupy a dominant position in the court and belong to the elite of this group.

 In Feng Ziying's view, this is often a sign that the court still has hope.

People like Gu Bingqian and Jia Yucun are also capable and talented, but they lack character and have no bottom line. Such people often do well and even become very popular at certain times. It is not easy to be an outstanding achiever, because not many people will follow such a person.

"It seems that the mountain chief was inspired by this." Feng Ziying laughed, and for Guan Yingzhen, he smoothed the paper and pulled it open, so that it would be more ornamental.

"Well, Ziying, Brother Chengfeng went to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and it was said that he was having a hard time. However, Brother Chengfeng didn't mention the difficulties at all in his letter to me. He only said that he would eliminate the accumulated shortcomings and make some achievements. But I You can still feel the dilemma he faced.”

This tone and gesture no longer resembled a conversation between a lecturer and a student, and it was even more incredible since Guan Yingzhen was still the Academy Chief.

 But this has become the norm.

Both Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen have gradually adapted to this almost equal discussion and dialogue in the past few months.

 In their view, except for Feng Ziying's unsatisfactory performance in classics and meanings, in other aspects she can be regarded as a leader in Chunwei.

If Feng Ziying's foundation in Jingyi can reach the 60-70% level of Lian Guoshi, Xu Xie and others, then I dare not say that the first, second and second grade of Chunwei of Xia Ke, the third grade is more than enough.

The problem is that his foundation in classics and meaning is really poor. Even if he takes the time to make up for it now, it will not be possible in a day or two. It will also depend on how the situation is in the middle of next year.

Although Feng Ziying was still very respectful in front of Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen, Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen still preferred to talk to him in an exploratory tone and angle.

"Chief, to be blunt, during the last ten years of the Emperor's reign, fatigue prevailed, and muddling along became the norm. Mediocrity filled the court. Qi Shi suddenly took over and wanted to clean up the old dust. This will be very difficult. Da, the disciple does not agree with such a sudden and windy action. Last month when the disciple went home to take a rest, he also visited Master Qi and talked about this idea to Master Qi, but Master Qi was still unwilling to give up. .”

 Feng Ziying's eyebrows were already a little worried.

Qi Yongtai has a distinctive and tough temperament. Since he was recruited into the Ministry of Personnel and served as the Zuo Shilang, he intends to change the current state of people being too busy to push things around.

It's just that when there are ministers and elders at the top, right ministers and department heads below, who still have various thoughts, such actions will inevitably encounter great resistance.

What's more important is that even the emperor is still holding back and only tolerates this kind of situation. How can you, Zuo Shilang, change the situation?

But Qi Yongtai is not a person who gives up easily. According to his idea, it is worthwhile to pursue his own affairs in his position, even if he can make some changes.

Unlike Qi Yongtai, who is tough and tenacious, Guan Yingzhen is more pliable and flexible, and is better at considering and handling affairs from multiple perspectives.

Feng Ziying felt that Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen worked well together, but it was a pity that although Liang Yuan was a good place, it was not a home of long-term love.

After all, Qingtan Academy is just a place for teaching and cultivating talents. For Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen, they still hope to step into the court and display their ambition to govern the country and bring peace to the world.

 Guan Ying shook his head. If Qi Yongtai was so easily persuaded, he would not fall back and forth again and again.

 He is also not optimistic about Qi Yongtai's current series of measures to change the internal discipline of the official department.

 It's very simple. You, Qi Yongtai, have left the court for many years. Most of the people in the court now are the officials left behind by the emperor. It can be said that you don't have a group of people who can support you in your work.

Although the emperor intends to innovate, he will never risk the disapproval of the world to do this while the emperor is still there.

Of course you, Qi Yongtai, can do it, and even the emperor will support you to a certain extent, but he will never support you openly.

In this situation, there is no strong external support and no strong internal response. How can you push forward the innovations you want to make?

In Guan Yingzhen’s view, what Qi Yongtai needs to do is to stabilize his position, find out the situation, and wait for the time to mature.

What does it mean when the time is ripe? That is when the emperor wants to make up his mind to do something about it. Even if certain conditions are met, you still have to promote and train a large number of ministers who agree with your point of view, so that you can really do what you want to do. , keep doing it.

"That's all, Brother Chengfeng also has his own considerations and persistence, let him go." Guan Yingzhen also knew that he could not intervene in this matter.

What he can do is to make a good job of leaving Qi Yongtai, so that Qingtan Academy can continue to provide talents to the court.

 One day, when this group of talents slowly grow up and become the backbone of the imperial court, they will be able to raise their arms and watch the scenery follow.

At that time, if you want to do something, you can say that it is the wind and water, and everything will fall into place.

"Captain, actually what we are going to discuss today is to provide assistance to Master Qi. Although the disciples don't think this can bring about changes, at least we can lay some foundations and lay some foundations for doing something in the future. Foreshadowing.”

Feng Ziying's words made Guan Yingzhen laugh. This guy can always see further than others and capture some changes better.

"It seems that you have realized it, well, I do have this intention." Guan Yingzhen said thoughtfully: "Brother Chengfeng and I were not very supportive of taking this approach too early. We are not yet familiar with the situation, and secondly, there was a round of major changes in the DPRK and China at that time, which was not conducive to the stability of the DPRK, but now is the time."

While the two were talking, Han Jing, Lian Guoshi, Fan Jingwen, and He Fengsheng had all arrived one after another.

 Guan Yingzhen asked them to sit down and then started to talk directly.

"Previously, according to the wishes of Chief Qi Shan, we have selected three areas as breakthrough points after the year. As long as it involves the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Rites and Dali Temple, specifically, it is mainly the reform of Kaizhong Law and the Imperial College. Purge and improve the shortcomings in the trial of Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment.”

 Lian Guoshi is the main person responsible for this matter.

Originally, it was supposed to be Han Jing, but Han Jing declined because he had not completed his studies and lacked energy. He was only willing to assist Lian Guo Shi in handling the matter, so he let Lian Guo Shi take the lead.

Since it was decided to expand the influence of Qingtan Academy to the court, Qi Yongtai could just take advantage of Qi Yongtai's appointment as Zuo Shilang in the Ministry of Personnel to push this matter to the court.
