Chapter 645 Shadow of the T-Shadow

Thinking that Huan Laosan was really a piece of reading material, and what was even more rare was that he admired himself so much, Feng Ziying thought that he might not be able to train him well, and teach him well.

Although Huan Laosan was the king of villains among various Red Mansion fandoms in his previous life, after being in contact with him for so long, it seems that apart from his extreme temper, this guy doesn't seem to have many bad habits.

Moreover, there are certain historical reasons for his extreme personality. Seeing that his uneducated brother-in-law enjoys all kinds of superior resources, and the whole family revolves around him, while his extremely hard work in studying is ignored. If no one cares about him, and he has an unknown biological mother, no matter how good his mentality is, he will probably collapse, not to mention that he is only a thirteen-year-old boy now.

Thinking of this, Feng Ziying understood Jia Huan's desire to study and his hatred for Baoyu. Why couldn't Baoyu, with such good resources, study hard and find a future and carry the banner of the rejuvenation of Rongguofu? But there are still people dancing and dancing all day long, feasting and having fun?

Feng Ziying felt that in a sense, Jia Huan was really relatively innocent. For a sinister person, he would probably be wishing that his brother-in-law would just wait to die and spend more money, so that he could be like this. Bastards are more likely to succeed.

But look at him, he often criticizes and criticizes Baoyu for being lazy and not studying. Who with a bad heart would do such a thankless job?

　　It shows that at least Huan Laosan is still thinking about the future of Rongguo Mansion, but his status is not enough, which destined that his future will not be in the Jia family.

Even if Jia Lan is like Jia Huan, Feng Ziying thinks that he can be trained. As long as he can be used for himself, there will be many times when he will need close and caring people to help him in the future. Why can't he let these disciples help him?

"Brother Huan, since you have realized where your future is, I would like to make a few requests for you. In the past few months, you should keep a low profile, keep a low profile, and study hard. I am the ethnology teacher hired by Uncle Zheng Shi. I’ve seen it, and there are some real materials. At least I can help you pass the scholar examination. There will be government examinations next month and college examinations in August. In just six months, if you work hard, your future will be infinitely bright. If you go to Qingqing Tan Academy should not embarrass me!"

Jia Huan was so excited that he couldn't help but stand up and salute.

This is the first time that Feng Ziying has made it clear that he will go to Qingtan Academy. In the past, he also said that he would go to Qingtan Academy, but he did not specify that it was Qingtan Academy. Jia Huan is not stupid. He also knows that Feng Ziying is inspecting him, and he is also worried that he will not be able to go in the end. Qingtan Academy, but can only go to Chongzheng Academy or Tonghui Academy. Now I can finally let go of my heart.

Feng Ziying stopped him. There were too many courtesies. Maybe it was because his status was too high in his mind. He didn't know how much courage he had to summon up to come to his house today.

Feng Ziying's guess was indeed correct. After Tanchun heard about this situation, he found Jia Huan and asked him to take the initiative to go to Feng Mansion to meet Feng Ziying.

Jia Huan didn't dare to do it before, but Tanchun scolded and encouraged him later.

Jia Huan finally left, almost trotting out with joy and hope. After all, he was a thirteen-year-old boy. Besides, some cities could not suppress their nature, which made Feng Ziying quite touched.

If one of the most wretched and despised characters in the book "A Dream of Red Mansions" is turned around and turned into one of the most promising figures in the Jia family, the sense of accomplishment would be really extraordinary.

"Oh? Are you saying that Feng Keng often visits the side courtyard of Rongguo Mansion and has some contacts with the Xue family, the in-laws of the Jia family?" Emperor Yonglong was quite surprised, "Lu Song, some of your contacts seem to have some other meaning?"

"Reporting to the Emperor, well, according to reports from people below, although Feng Keng is not old and does not have many other preferences, he is very unruly when it comes to women. He has two foreigners in Maxiang Hutong. The wife should have been brought back from Ganzhou. She is a daughter of a good family who came from a military family. In addition, he has a close relationship with the daughter of the Xue family, an in-law of the Jia family,..."

Lu Song didn't know why the emperor valued the Feng family so much before, but after learning that Feng Tang was going to be the governor of Jiliao, he understood, and he also increased the number of people around Feng Mansion, Feng Tang, and Feng Ziying, including Including the Jia family.

The Jia family itself is also the subject of Long Jinwei's surveillance. There are also Long Jinwei's spy informants in the Jia family. This is not difficult.

"Did Feng Ziying's two concubines be brought back from Ganzhou? Are they closely related? Are the women from the Xue family outstanding?" Emperor Yonglong couldn't help but ask one more question.

He was a little surprised by the waifu room, but it wasn't the waifu room itself that surprised him. There were quite a few civil servants and military generals in the court who kept waifu rooms these days, but most of them were out of fear of henpecks or unwilling to cause a fire in the backyard. But It is still a bit rare for someone as young as Feng Ziying to raise a foreign wife before she is officially married.

"Well, Feng Ziying should have met him in Ganzhou. The appearance of the two sisters is a little different from ordinary people. Their mother is a Hu-Han hybrid, and their father is a Mongol officer in Gansu Town. He died young..., and the Xue family girl is said to be Quite outstanding, originally I was interested in drafting girls..."

Emperor Yonglong laughed.

 No wonder, Feng Ziying really has a unique taste and likes women of other races.

Well, if the Xue family woman is outstanding, it is understandable. I don't see that this guy really has "foresight" to ambush him early. It turns out that it is for this. This guy seems to be a romantic and sentimental type.

This actually made Emperor Yonglong feel a lot relieved. A minister who has no hobbies and is devoted to serving the country may not be a good minister, especially when this minister is still so young.

“..., the official of Daguan Tower also checked it out. The Feng family should have a stake in it, but with the Xue family, Chen family, Wei family and other partners,..."

 “Chen family, Wei family?” Emperor Yonglong frowned.

“The Chen family is the family of General Chen Daoxian of the Fifth Military Camp. His sons Chen Yejun and Feng Ziying are Su Shi. The Wei family is the family of the eldest princess. Wei Ruolan and Feng Keng have always had a close relationship. They were classmates at the Imperial College.…”

Emperor Yonglong nodded silently.

 “As for the matter of Haitong Silver Village,…”

"There is no need to say anything about this matter. I already know it. You, Long Jinwei, don't ask about it. Just continue to observe and understand."

 …

Lu Song retreated, but Emperor Yonglong fell into deep thought.

 Feng Ziying gave him a good impression, but the relationship between the Feng family was a bit complicated.

Wuxun, but kept a certain distance from Wang Ziteng and Niu Jizong, but it would not be the case if they were not related. Moreover, Feng Ziying also wanted to marry Lin Ruhai's legitimate daughter, which made Emperor Yonglong a little uncomfortable.

Come to think of it, he is from such a second-rate martial arts background. If he had not imitated the ordinary people, he would have fallen down and been unable to get up. Is it really because of his talent that Feng Tang was favored by Zhang Jingqiu and elected as the governor of Jiliao? Failed to win the three armies bravely?

Zhang Jingqiu is right. Feng Tang can only be described as cautious, careful, and adept at military affairs. Even Chai Ke, who had a close relationship with Feng Tang, had no objection to this evaluation.

Of course, as Zhang Jingqiu and Chai Ke said, the current Governor of Jiliao needs just such a cautious person.

 These two father and son are really interesting.

Feng Tang was greedy for money but restrained. In Datong and Yulin, he accepted a lot of gold, silver, and even horses from merchants and even Mongolians outside the territory. His son was so good, and no matter how he looked at it, he was aiming for the future role of prime minister, but he was so Being greedy for flowers and lust, of course, it is not ruled out that the Feng family really hopes to spread its branches and continue the family's meager incense as soon as possible, but it feels a bit outrageous to choose a foreign woman as the maid.

Emperor Yonglong couldn't help but smile and shook his head. This is not a bad thing. Didn't Feng Ziying make a request to himself? Okay, then serve me well and let me see your next performance.

If Feng Ziying knew that her grooming of the You sisters would make Emperor Yonglong look down upon her, she would not be able to breathe a sigh of relief. If she had known that, she should have "rectified" the You sisters earlier.

And knowing that Emperor Yonglong still wants to keep himself out of reach like a donkey with a carrot hanging on his lips but eager to move forward, I'm afraid he will be relieved again. Isn't this what he wants to achieve? Purpose?

 Taking the medicine bag, the thin man weighed it, and the old man opposite said in a dark voice: "Are you familiar with the terrain?"

"It should be fine. I'm familiar with the map, and I've also found an opportunity to go in once. However, the Qiushui Sword Sect's people are very guarded, and I don't dare to get too close, lest I scare the snake..." The man hesitated for a moment before saying. : "But Brother Tong, didn't you say that Mr. Lin is seriously ill and will die soon? Why is it so..."

"You don't need to ask any questions about these things, just follow the orders." The old man said with a stern face, "It's not a good thing if you know too much."

 The man nodded, "Okay, when will we do it?"

"For these few days, you decide according to the situation. Remember, this is the amount of three servings. It is enough if you add one. I am worried that you will miss it, so I prepared two more servings for you." The old man warned. : "Don't put it in until the pot of medicine begins to boil. It should be less but not too much. This is not poison. It is just causing his condition to worsen rapidly. To put it bluntly, it is to let him get sick as soon as possible..."

The man took a deep breath, "It's just that there are servants in the kitchen at all times, and they are all his intimate attendants..."

"That's your business. How to do it? You don't need me to teach you, right?" The old man said impatiently: "I'll give you a few days so that you can make adjustments freely and don't leave any trace."

The man could only nod, "In that case, I will go and investigate tomorrow. He takes three doses of medicine in the morning, noon and evening. The evening is most suitable. If it is convenient, I will do it tomorrow. But as you promised, Brother Tong,... "

　　"Your benefits are indispensable..." The old man snorted coldly, "No one can escape a grasshopper on a rope."
