  Chapter 2395 Guizi Scroll Showdown, Persuasion

  Jia Yucun's whole body trembled violently, some couldn't believe it, Jia Jing? This guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes actually joined the court? How can this be? !

   Isn't he the most reliable confidant of Prince Yizhong? How dare you do such a thing?

  Gan Guobao, the admiral of the Jiang Waterproof Division, was recommended by Jia Jing, and Jia Yucun knew this.

Although the Jiang Water Division does not have many boats and cannot compare with the Denglai Navy, it is still the most powerful navy around Nanjing. It has always been his territory from the mouth of the North-South Canal to Nanjing. It is his job to guard the banknote pass and investigate and arrest smuggling. This is why Jia Jing, who is the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Household Affairs, wants to control this force with all his strength.

Almost all Jiangnan officials went to Beijing with Prince Yizhong, Tang Miu, Zhu Gu and others, but only Jia Jing could not go, because he was in the imperial court, with Long Jinwei, and had already "died of illness" in Xuanzhen Temple. In the imperial court, he is a dead person, and there is no such person anymore.

  If this person is allowed to appear in the court majestically, it will undoubtedly be a slap in the face of the court, which is absolutely unacceptable to the court.

  Even Prince Yizhong couldn’t say much about this matter. Letting Jia Jing escape from his shell by feigning death at the beginning meant that unless Nanjing won a complete victory, Jia Jing would no longer be able to appear in the court.

Now there is such a strange compromise between the north and the south. Relatively speaking, Prince Yizhong only wants to keep the throne, the throne of his lineage, so he can give up other aspects, so Jia Jing can only say sorry up.

Of course, the imperial court will not kill Jia Jing completely, and Jia Jing has also connected online through Feng Ziying and the imperial court early on, so let Jia Jing stay in Jinling and be a silent invisible person , everyone turns a blind eye, it is an acceptable result.

Jia Yucun naturally didn't know the tacit understanding here. He was just shocked by Jia Jing's ability to connect with the imperial court and assist the imperial court in controlling Jiang Waterproofer. It seems that there are really many smart people, and he is not alone. Only then did I understand the truth of betting on both sides.

Seeing Jia Yucun's expression of disbelief, Wang Wenyan also laughed, "Brother Yucun, you don't need to be so surprised. You are all doing things for the imperial court. One point, even the new emperor will uphold this point of view after he ascends the throne, presumably the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River are not willing to have a feudal town riding on their heads, right?"

Jia Yucun finally woke up from the shock, and nodded again and again: "That is, that is, since Ziying has a complete plan, there is no problem, I will go to the guards here to settle them down." Inside the gate of the camp,..."

   You have to show some strength to impress this guy, otherwise I don’t know how much more words will be spent. Dong Weng said that it’s not true that this guy is ungrateful for seeing small profits, but it’s true to do big things and cherish his life.

After that, everything became logical. Jia Yucun went to the Nanjing Weijun Yamen to sit in the town and stabilize the Weijun, while Jia Jing went to the Jiang Waterproof Division Yamen to let the Jiang Waterproof Division fleet return to the pier until Denglai Navy. arrival.

  Recovering Nanjing was easier than imagined. Even the little war in Yangzhou seemed to be a mess compared to Nanjing.

  But Feng Ziying knows that the crisis has not been completely resolved, and the biggest danger is still upstream, Wang Ziteng's old Denglai army.

Whether the opponent is going down the river or staying in Jiujiang, this problem has to be faced. If Wang Ziteng's old Denglai army can be solved, then the Niu Sun Erbu that the father is confronting will be alone and will quickly fall apart. up.

  Shen Yourong led the Denglai Navy to march westward, arrived at the line of Dashengguan, and was near Dashengguan to prepare to face the Denglai army who intends to go east from Jiujiang, if the Denglai army intends to go east by water.

  But both Feng Ziying and Shen Yourong knew that under such circumstances, it was impossible for Wang Ziteng to let the Denglai army go south by boat. Facing the Denglai navy, they would not talk about fighting each other, and they would simply be a living target for the opponent to die.

   "Wenyan, please read this letter." Feng Ziying handed it to Wang Wenyan, "I asked Dengfeng to go to Jiujiang, when Yangzhou was captured. Wang Ziteng will reply soon, and hope to meet."

  Wang Wenyan took Feng Ziying's letter and briefly read it.

"What kind of result does he hope to get?" After reading the letter, Wang Wenyan pondered and said: "He should know that the three towns in the south of the Yangtze River are pure illusions and cannot exist anymore. Although the soldiers in Old Denglai Town can be regarded as It is the elite, but the imperial court may not agree to keep it, and he wants to fight for something for himself, which may be too much appetite."

"Father in the north is launching an offensive, but Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu are still fighting in the corner. The battle is fierce. Zhisheng has ordered Cao Wenzhao to send troops to the west with You Shiwei, preparing to pinch Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu. The situation in Jiangbei will not change much. I just feel that it is a pity that elites like the Xuanfu Army and the Datong Army have been wiped out like this."

  Feng Ziying sighed, "Originally, they were all the elite of the border town, but they killed each other. Why did this happen? Niu Jizong and Sun Shaozu didn't understand the current affairs, so they dragged on like this..."

   "What does your lord mean that you are going to see Wang Ziteng, and you are going to persuade him?" Wang Wenyan looked at Feng Ziying, a little worried, "But in case Wang Ziteng jumps over the wall in a hurry, intending to..."

Feng Ziying waved his hand with a calm face, "What can Wang Ziteng do, hold me hostage, or kill me? Not to mention whether he can do it, even if he can do it, if he holds me hostage, the court can agree to his conditions? Killing me, besides angering my father, what can I achieve with him until my death? How can such a seasoned and deep person as Wang Ziteng do such an unwise move?"

"But Wujiang Town he chose is really an unlucky place..." Wang Wenyan was still a little hesitant, because it really had too much to do with it. Feng Ziying's safety was related to the survival of the entire group. Under certain circumstances, there is really no need to take such a risk.

Wujiang Town is the place where Overlord Xiang Yu committed suicide. No matter how you feel, this place is not auspicious as a meeting point. This place is under the control of Wang Ziteng, but it is also a marginal area. The old Denglai army temporarily stopped in Hezhou and did not enter Jinling. within the territory of the government.

"It's nothing, it's definitely not me who committed suicide. I also believe that Wang Ziteng will not commit suicide. This guy is old and strong, and Niu Jizong is similar." Feng Ziying smiled, "I also wrote to Niu Jizong, I hope he will judge the situation and Take the initiative to surrender and ask for the court's pardon."

  Wang Wenyan also laughed, "My lord, can you make them lay down their weapons if you ask for pardon?"

"Hehe, if you are a smart person, you will know that the general trend cannot be violated. Why do you want to kill yourself by hitting an egg against a rock? The Niu family and Wang family still have a large family. Besides, isn't Prince Yizhong going to be enthroned soon? He can just wait until he is pardoned. "Feng Ziying smiled, "The imperial court just wants to eradicate the three towns in the south of the Yangtze River to prevent the emergence of feudal towns, not to put Niu Wang Chen and the others to death. Okay? It’s better to live than to die.”

  Feng Ziying's provocative words also left Wang Ziteng speechless at the meeting point outside the Bawang Temple in Wujiang Town.

Wang Ziteng had thought that Feng Ziying would come, but he was so bold that he came with a few guards. He still admired the courage of the other party, and changed himself, so young to come to this position, I am afraid that he would have to think carefully Dare to set foot.

   "Ziying, are you really not afraid that I will turn my face against others?" Wang Ziteng was dressed in a blue casual robe, standing side by side with Feng Ziying with his hands behind his back.

"Uncle Shi, I've said it all, whether you kill me or take me down, what can you ask for? The cabinet will not give up their decision just because of me alone. This is the decision of the entire scholar group, not For you or Niu Jizong personally, they will never allow Fanzhen with independent momentum to appear. Well, it even includes my father’s Northwest Army. Look, didn’t my father’s trilateral governors be removed a long time ago? Now the governor of Jiliao It's also avoided, um, there is only one nondescript Northwest Army commander left, and I guess after this battle is over, maybe I will let my father go to the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion to have a leisurely meal."

  Feng Ziying smiled sweetly, but her words were extraordinarily open.

  Wang Ziteng focused his eyes, "Then you just sit back and watch this situation happen? Can civil servants let your Feng family be ministers for generations? You can read, but can your children and grandchildren continue to go to high school like you?"

"Of course not. Isn't the imperial examination system designed to prevent hereditary civil servants?" Feng Ziying smiled. Isn’t this trend obvious? If you are still obsessed with the old glory of the past, you will be eliminated. Only by understanding the situation can you find the one that suits you best.”

   Wang Ziteng couldn't see through the man in front of him.

If you say that this guy is only interested in becoming an official civil servant, that's fine, but this fellow has three households, inherits the family line, and even changed the way to let Emperor Yonglong restore the titles of Hulunhou and Yunchuanbo to the Feng family. Isn't this aimed at inheriting the family? But now you say these unsalty and tasteless words, what do you mean?

"Shibo, there must be decline in prosperity. The martial arts were at their peak during Emperor Yuanxi's period, and even the cabinet was suppressed so hard that it was difficult for scholars to accept. During the period of Emperor Yonglong, did the cabinet begin to revive? You warriors neither expanded the territory nor defended against the enemy from outside. How did you fight the Renchen Incident? How did you fare in Liaodong against the Jianzhou Jurchens? Have you suppressed the Er people? Even the Japanese pirates harassed the sea, and you performed poorly, so why do you let the people support you?"

  Feng Ziying's tone became more and more indifferent, as if evaluating something that had nothing to do with him.
