  Chapter 789 E-character roll Xiuyan, Miaoyu (two-in-one ask for a monthly ticket!)

After the spring break, Feng Ziying also began his last happy time in the Imperial Academy. Gao Panlong, the head of the Imperial Academy, had a good impression of him, especially the low-key these past few months, and the fact that he married a daughter of the Shen family also made Jiangnan Scholars have a better perception of it.

  However, it is a pity that it seems that Shen Yixiu has not been pregnant, which makes everyone in the Feng family a little worried, especially the big and small Duan family, who are even more uneasy, but Feng Ziying doesn't care.

Shen Yixiu is only nineteen years old, and the golden age for future childbearing is still very long, at least ten years away. As long as there is no problem with his body, he will be able to conceive sooner or later. The only thing to worry about is himself. If something happens, it is really God's will, and no one can do anything about it.

  For the first half of the eighth year of Yonglong, the biggest event must be the Chunwei Grand Competition, which has attracted much attention, but for Feng Ziying and his Jinshi in the fifth year of Yonglong, what is more important is where they will go after the political observation period expires.

   Just like the assignment of postgraduates in later generations, where to go will be finalized after the results of the Chunwei Grand Competition come out.

The development momentum of "Today's News" is very rapid. Since the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the printing and circulation of each issue has risen to 1,500 copies. This is already a considerable number in Feng Ziying's view, and its influence is also in the capital. It occupies a considerable position among the official and gentry class, the merchant class, and the scholarly literati group.

  Of course, with the expansion of printing volume, there is still no hope of profit. Fortunately, relying on the advertisements of merchants is enough to make up for the ever-expanding losses.

  For Feng Ziying, whether it is profitable or not is not important, the most important thing is to cultivate the reading habits of the three most important groups in the capital city, and at the same time grasp the influence and voice of these three groups.

  No one is aware of this yet. After a few years, when this habit is deeply ingrained, the reliance on "Today's News" is formed, and the habitual trust in the information above is also formed, the significance will be extraordinary.

  After explaining her suggestion to Jia Yuanchun, Feng Ziying didn't pay much attention to it. Emperor Yonglong still showed up, which showed that some of Jia Yuanchun's news was not very accurate, and Emperor Yonglong was not yet seriously ill.

  But one thing is still accurate. There are indeed some problems with Emperor Yonglong's physical condition. The frequency of going to court has been significantly reduced.

   Moreover, the activities of King Shou, King Fu, and King Li were more active. Feng Ziying paid more attention to this, which meant that the three adult princes also noticed something.

   In a few days until the Spring Competition, Feng Ziying went to the academy again, and had a special exchange with Xu Qixun, Fu Zonglong, Chen Qiyu, Sun Chuanting, Xue Wenzhou and others, and also talked about the current affairs that the court has paid attention to in the past six months.

If there are no accidents, these old classmates should be able to pass the exam. Of course, accidents are not ruled out, but after passing the exam, it depends on whether they are first-class, second-class or third-class. According to Feng Ziying's judgment, the possibility of first-class is relatively small, and the possibility of second-class is relatively small. A is more likely.

  But as long as they pass the Jinshi examination, they will have completed their merits and virtues, and their future official career has already been laid out for them.

  Feng Ziying didn't go east to eat at noon, but Jin Chuaner and the others ate here.

  We can’t neglect this place. In the past two or three months, Feng Ziying came here very infrequently. He only came here once every few days.

  Seeing Xiangling shyly taking off her clothes behind her back, Feng Ziying felt a burst of heat in her heart. Jin Chuaner was inconvenient, and only Xiangling was at bedtime at noon. After all, Yu Chuaner was a little younger.

After grabbing Xiangling with only her peach-red bellyband left, her delicate and exquisite body showed a strange color under the sunlight that came in through the window lattice in the afternoon, as if even every part of her skin could be illuminated by the sunlight. Blooming, the soft and greasy body shrank into Feng Ziying's arms, and Feng Ziying felt thirsty in his mouth.

   Soon there were only heavy panting and choking sounds in the room. Feng Ziying hadn't rested here for a month or two, and it seemed that some unfamiliar limbs gradually became familiar in the fiery collision,...

  The clouds gathered and the rain dispersed, Xiangling curled up in Feng Ziying's arms like a docile cat, half-closed her eyes, and leaned her face on Feng Ziying's naked chest, "Master, when will you marry Miss Bao?"

"What's the matter?" Feng Ziying knew that Xiangling had always kept in close contact with Baochai and Yinger. Yinger often came here, and Xiangling also went to Baochai's side from time to time, so Baochai was here. An "internal response".

   "Your servant is just asking." Xiangling acted coquettishly, raised her dimple, and her warm eyes were full of intoxicating affection.

Feng Ziying was a little dazed, the young girl who used to be young and tender, now has a bit of the enchanting aura of a little woman, the jerkyness between her eyebrows that has not completely faded is gradually being replaced by the softness, leaning on her body With a slight twist, I actually had an inexplicable urge to press the other person under me and ravage me fiercely.

   "It's almost here." Feng Ziying didn't dare to promise, but he had already sent the news through some channels, and Emperor Yonglong would receive some reminders soon.

Xiangling was very satisfied with such an answer. For her, if Baochai could get married earlier, she could return to Baochai's side with peace of mind and serve Baochai with Yinger. Marrying over here was not something she considered.

As long as what Feng Ziying promised, it will be realized. She only has this kind of blind trust in Feng Ziying, just like her mother's whereabouts. Xiangling never expected to find it, but it was easily solved by the master. After turning the year, I will come to Beijing.

Immediately there will be the Chunwei Dabi, and then the former Jinshi will go to new positions one after another. Feng Ziying went to Qi Yongtai, Qiao Yingjia, and Guan Yingzhen to visit respectively a few days ago. Basically, the whereabouts should be clear or somewhere in the north near Shuntian Mansion. The prefectural capital of the country can serve as a co-prefect, or go to one of the three prefectures of Ningbo, Yangzhou, and Suzhou to serve as a co-prefect.

Guan Yingzhen really hoped that Feng Ziying would return to the Zhongshu Department. The rank of Zhongshu Sheren is too low. The responsibilities have undergone tremendous changes. It is expected that in the future, the Zhongshu Department may continue to be retained, and all responsibilities may be separated again, either under the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry, or a new Ministry of Commerce will be established.

Regarding the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce, Feng Ziying has written three consecutive articles in the "Internal Reference" anonymously, covering the historical changes, the current economic and commercial affairs facing Dazhou, and then the affairs that may be more widely involved in the future. According to predictions, it is said that the cabinet also conducted a formal discussion on these articles, and Emperor Yonglong was also very interested in it.

But this is just a guess. From Feng Ziying's point of view, with such a slow and conservative atmosphere in Dazhou, it is difficult to make such a big move in a short period of time to reform the ministry system. However, simply use the officials of the Ministry of Households or the Ministry of Industry to borrow the affairs of the Zhongshu Division to handle the affairs of the Zhongshu Division, and then handle these matters in detail. After a few years, all aspects of the situation have been familiarized and finalized, and then consider the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce.

  Touching Xiangling's firm and smooth body, Feng Ziying's imagination flashed.

Wang Wenyan's side is going all out to integrate some of the original contacts and resources, but the Northland side is still a little thinner, and Lin Ruhai has left a solid foundation for himself in Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Huguang. Resources, but the Northland is much worse. Feng Ziying even had to go to Liaodong, and asked her father to hand over some contacts in the capital, Shanxi, and Shaanxi to him, and slowly integrate them.

   After all, I’m still too immature. After all, it’s only been three years since I passed the Jinshi exam. If Lin Ruhai’s family background wasn’t handed over to me, I’m afraid I’m still far behind.

   "Master, I heard from the girl that Uncle Xue's marriage has been settled, and it is estimated that we will get married in April or May." Xiangling said leisurely suddenly.

"Oh?" Feng Ziying also knew that the marriage between Xue Pan and Xia's family was fixed, but she didn't know the exact time, and she didn't go to Xue's house during this time, and Lixiangyuan had already been bought by a group of little opera singers. Occupied, the Xue family moved to a yard next to the Grand View Garden in the mansion.

  In the past few days, it is said that the Grand View Garden is also being readjusted. It is estimated that all the girls including Daiyu and Baochai will move in.

   In this area, it seems that there is not much change. Daiyu still chooses Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and Baochai still chooses Hengwuyuan. Other changes seem to be small.

  Shi Xiangyun lives in Ouxiangxie, sandwiched between Nuanxiangwu in Xichun and Qiushuangzhai in Tanchun.

On the contrary, even Xingxiuyan was assigned to a courtyard, and Luxueguang was chosen to live across the stream and mountains from Changcui Temple in the mountain. side to go up.

  These news are all news that Qingwen brought back from Jia's mansion.

  Thinking about it, this drowsiness also came up, and he simply fell asleep with his arms around Xiangling.

  Woke up, before Xiangling got up, Jin Chuaner had already come in to dress Feng Ziying.

   "Hey, why are you so active today? Isn't Xiangling here?" Feng Ziying was very surprised.

"Master, Miss Xing, the niece of the eldest wife, somehow knew that Master didn't go back there and was taking a lunch break here, so she came here and said that she had something to report to Master." Jin Chuan'er sat up while looking sleepy. Come on, half of the apron was hanging obliquely, revealing half of her naked body, Xiang Ling blushed and spat, "Little Hoof, don't put your clothes on the boat, so you can catch the cold at ease."

  Xiangling woke up now, and hurriedly retracted into the brocade quilt again, blushing and complaining: "Why did my sister come in? I just take care of dressing here."

   "Can I wait until you? If I don't come in, you can hold Grandpa and sleep until dinner." Jin Chuan'er said angrily, "There is no time for gluttony."

She was so ashamed by Jin Chuan'er's words that she couldn't lift her head up. Xiang Ling was originally a good-natured person, but she was a little naive when she heard these words, "Then Jin Chuan'er, you are the same. Humming and chirping, it’s a pity that I’m still talking about it at noon, with a sad look,…”

A word from Xiangling, who has always been honest, made him wish he could get in through a crack in the ground. Jin Chuaner threw down Feng Ziying's clothes and was about to tear Xiangling's mouth, "Little hoof, I told you to talk nonsense, when will I come?" Humming and chirping..."

Seeing the two girls laughing, fighting and tearing up, Feng Ziying couldn't help but smile. This kind of atmosphere is undoubtedly the most pleasant moment, especially the two pretty and lively girls. The language is really intoxicating.

   It's just that this kind of time is often short-lived, and everyone has to face this wave of various things.

   "You said that Miaoyu's master Jingyuan is seriously ill?" Feng Ziying was taken aback, "Are they still in the Muni Academy?"

"For the time being, Mrs. Liaoyuan has also invited a doctor, but they all said that the oil is exhausted, and I am afraid that there is not much life left. Mrs. Liaoyuan also said that she knows this situation, but now she is worried about Sister Miaoyu. where to go, so..."

The girl standing in front of Feng Ziying was tall and slender, with an indigo blue cotton skirt and a very simple cotton cloak on top, the hood was pulled down, her plain and fair face was clear and clear, especially her pair of eyes were clear and pure. The nose is paired with moderately sized cherry lips, and the slightly thin cheeks allow the sunlight outside the window to fall on the other person's face, creating a sense of tranquility and beauty.

  Twisting her hands together slightly in front of her lower abdomen, seeing Feng Ziying's gaze looking over, the girl lowered her eyes subconsciously, trying to avoid Feng Ziying's gaze.

"Why don't you go to find Sister Lin?" Feng Ziying frowned. Jingyuan probably wanted to ask for help, but in fact it was not considered support. Miaoyu also had a mother who became a monk in Suzhou, but this mother seemed to be crazy and unreliable. Therefore, Jingyuan should be worried about this registered disciple who was brought up since childhood, so he wanted to hand over Miaoyu to a trustworthy person.

  It seems that I have become the best choice. Then again, I have promised Lin Ruhai, so this is also my responsibility.

"Sister Lin's side, my younger sister has also considered it. Sister Lin is also living in this mansion now, and is preparing to move into the yard now. I'm afraid it's not easy to bring it up to the masters and wives." Xing Xiuyan pursed her lips slightly. , with a beautiful appearance, and every movement and expression is extraordinarily moving.

This girl is very considerate, Daiyu is naturally fine to live in the Grand View Garden, but Miaoyu is hard to say, this is Lin Ruhai's illegitimate daughter who carried Daiyu's mother behind her back, and has nothing to do with the Jia family, so why would she accept Miaoyu? Yu, just accept it, but how could it be possible for Miaoyu to live in Jia's house?

"Well, the younger sister of the Xing family is considerate. I didn't expect this. There is a place to live in my house. If Miaoyu is willing to come and live, she can do so at any time, but I guess Miaoyu probably doesn't want to live with me. Son, um, I am afraid that the younger sister of the Xing family should also know the specific situation. Miaoyu and you have been close friends for many years. I should have told you about the arrangement between my sister Lin and my uncle Lin. I said that as long as she doesn't go out, everything else can be discussed, and I will find a suitable family for her, but she is not willing, and I also don't understand what she thinks in her heart..."

  Feng Ziying's frank and pertinent attitude made Xing Xiuyan feel more at ease.

  Before, she didn't know much about Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan, who had great influence on Jia's family. Apart from his brilliant talent, there were also rumors about his taking concubines and giving him a personal girl in the house.

   It is nothing more than saying that he likes beautiful women, but this kind of rumor seems a little unreliable.

  Isn't it normal for a family like the Feng family to take a concubine?

   As for giving him a beautiful maidservant, it was also a gift from his wife and Xue Pan in Jia's mansion. This is a very common thing in a rich family's house. How could it become a love of beauty?

Of course, it may be that Feng Ziying is very picky when it comes to choosing her personal maids, such as Jin Chuaner, Yu Chuaner sisters, Xiangling, and even Qingwen, who was later sent to Shen's residence by Feng Ziying's curve to save the country, all of them are beautiful and beautiful girls. But what's wrong with that?

  Who would choose a mediocre girl as a personal maid? Who doesn't know what it means to be a personal maid.

On the contrary, Xing Xiuyan didn't quite understand Feng Ziying when it came to Miaoyu's matter. It stands to reason that Miaoyu's appearance is definitely one in a million. Miaoyu is not inferior to the girls in Jia's mansion such as Baochai and Daiyu, but this Uncle Feng seems to be lacking in interest.

   Miaoyu has been in Beijing with her for so long, but this Uncle Feng seems to have never asked about Miaoyu.

"Brother Feng, Sister Miaoyu's little sister knows a little bit about her thoughts. She has stayed in the temple for too long and has too little contact with the outside world, so sometimes her temper can't be changed. In fact, if she can get in touch with girls of the same age Just like Miss Bao, Miss Yun, Second Miss, and Third Miss in the mansion are together, the younger sister is thinking, as time goes by, her temper will slowly turn around,..."

   Xing Xiuyan articulated her intentions skillfully. Feng Ziying looked at the other party meaningfully and laughed, which made Xing Xiuyan feel a little shy.

"Sister Xing, I understand what you mean. Well, it seems that there is a nunnery in the garden, called Changcui nunnery, right? Although I haven't gone up to see it, I know it is surrounded by mountains, and it is very quiet. A Jade Emperor Temple is really suitable for people to clean up, I will find time to talk to Jia's mansion first, it is probably not a big problem,..."

  Feng Ziying was very happy that Xing Xiuyan cared so much about Miaoyu.

A girl like Miaoyu who is mixed with low self-esteem and pride, and who has lived in a temple for a long time and lacks the care of her parents, must have a weird and rebellious personality, but Xing Xiuyan can get along well with each other, and even become an innocent girl. A good friend who doesn't talk about it also shows that Xing Xiuyan's character and character are trustworthy.

   "Then thank you, Brother Feng." Xing Xiuyan breathed a sigh of relief, and stood up Yingying. She knew that Feng Ziying had always been a person who didn't like big words, and since she said it, she must be sure.

besides!
